The Vanlin Lightwater technology was applied to the Sniper Lock-On System, utilizing complex craftsmanship as a reference for targeting. Specifically, there were nine levels of Tremor, from Level One to Level Nine. The higher the level, the greater the frequency of Tremor and the higher the precision achieved. This concept is akin to a leveling gauge on Earth, but it is millions of times more accurate!
This was the key to the survival of the Long-Range Sniper profession in Mechanical City.
Thanks to the Vanlin Lightwater Vibration Locking System, qualified Long-Range Snipers could stand alongside the Brute Assault Specialist, Heavy Shield Defender, Swift Hunter, Area Controller, and Shadow Stalker as part of the Six Major Ace Professions.
The locking system on the Sniper Energy Cannon also employed the Vanlin Lightwater System, but only met the standard of Level Three Tremor. Nevertheless, this was already quite impressive; otherwise, how could the Tank's Main Control Center fail to automatically control the Sniper Energy Cannon? It had to be manually operated for this very reason.
Given Lin Yuan's current integration level with his Mechanical Body and Civic Induction Transmission Rate, he could only manage a Level One Tremor and could only control one Sniper Energy Cannon at a time, targeting a slowly moving Corrosive Liquid Thornbug!
Yet this individual was capable of setting the Sniper Energy Cannon's lock to Level Three Tremor—truly remarkable!
Even more astonishing was that this Mechanical Warrior seemed intent on firing six Sniper Energy Cannons simultaneously. This was no small feat; after all, each profession has its specialties!
One second, two seconds, three seconds—until the cooling time for the Thorned Dragon's Acid Bomb had passed and it was rapidly spiraling in. Lin Yuan didn’t even notice anything amiss; all he heard was a dull thud as those six Sniper Energy Cannons were indeed fired at once with alarming precision!
Lin Yuan's Auditory Radar had been tracking those ten Thorned Dragons. Even he had to admit that when those ten Thorned Dragons fell within his radar's range, they left behind only an afterimage—he couldn't even lock onto them or hit a mere shadow.
However, in that instant, a miracle occurred. Of the ten Thorned Dragons diving down like meteors, four were struck by six dazzling beams of light. Despite being D1-level Elite Zergs, they couldn’t withstand the power of the Sniper Energy Cannon—once hit, they vanished without a trace!
It was unbelievable. At that moment, all the mercenaries in the Breakthrough Convoy were desperately firing their weapons but didn’t truly understand what they were attacking. Yet witnessing four arrogant Thorned Dragons being taken out was immensely satisfying. Although six Thorned Dragons remained, that suddenly didn’t seem like much of a problem anymore!
This achievement startled the remaining six Thorned Dragons as well. Though they were insects, their intelligence shouldn’t be underestimated. In an instant, they locked onto Lin Yuan and his Tank along with the Fire Support Platform. With their massive jaws opening wide, six enormous Acid Bombs were immediately launched downwards with equal precision! Given the blast radius of these Acid Bombs, there would be no escape for Lin Yuan and his team; even half of the nearby assault convoy would be obliterated!
At that moment, the crowd of Mercenaries, who had been cheering just moments ago, suddenly fell silent, while Thomas, Bison, Hal, and others nearby felt their hearts sink into despair.
It was a doomed situation! There was no way to save it!
"Everyone, gather around me and activate the Energy Shields as much as possible!"
But just then, Lin Yuan shouted loudly. He then slammed his fist onto a seemingly inconspicuous button on the Fire Support Platform, and an earth-shattering sound erupted!
In an instant, two Heavy Shield Tanks that had been hovering closely together suddenly trembled violently. Then, to everyone's astonishment, the previously shattered Energy Shield began to restore itself at that very moment! It enveloped the Fire Support Platform where Lin Yuan stood as if two hands were coming together.
Following this, from the base of the Fire Support Platform on Lin Yuan's Assault Tank, three interlocking Energy Shields shot up in succession, completely protecting it as well!
This was Lin Yuan's second trump card; besides having a powerful Fire Support Platform, how could he not have strong defenses?
However, despite all his calculations, he never anticipated that these defenses were originally meant for Hal and the other enemies but ended up being their only shield of protection in the end!
When Lin Yuan shouted out loud, no one was foolish or stunned; nearly all the Mercenaries nearby rushed to gather beneath the Fire Support Platform at lightning speed and activated all their Energy Shields as much as they could!
"Hurry! Don't just stand there! I've put all my cards on the table; if you can't take down those six Thorned Dragons, I'll take you down first!"
Lin Yuan then bellowed at the equally stunned individual beside him. Their lives now depended entirely on this person.
"Thank you! If you can withstand this wave, we will win—there's no doubt about it!"
The guy instantly regained his composure, exuding confidence as he spoke. At the same time, the Acid Bombs laid out on the ground were wreaking havoc on the Energy Shield outside!
More than half of the Breakthrough Convoy was affected by these six Acid Bombs. The Mercenaries who couldn't escape to Lin Yuan's side could only let out a few agonized cries before being corroded into a mass of gaping holes, disappearing in an instant. The imposing Assault Tanks and Heavy Shield Tanks were not spared from this fate either.
In Lin Yuan's position, the four Energy Shields were rapidly diminishing. Under the terrified gaze of everyone, the first Energy Shield was corroded away in an instant, followed by the second and third, and soon enough, it would be their own energy defenses!
Fortunately, by this time, most of the acid had been blocked, so aside from a few Mercenaries being taken out or severely injured, the rest remained unharmed.
Especially in the Fire Support Platform where Lin Yuan was located; both sides of his Mechanical Body's Energy Shields had not even been put to use.
"Indeed a good trump card! I'm impressed; now it's my turn!" The Long-Range Sniper couldn't help but exclaim as he continued to fire off three exceptionally precise shots, taking down a Thorned Dragon mid-air!
In this regard, he was not exaggerating at all. Calm and unhurried, he steadily unleashed two rounds of sniper fire in just six seconds, directly eliminating two Thorned Dragons.
Such a fierce killing intent caused the remaining four Thorned Dragons to turn tail and flee!
The terrifying crisis finally came to a temporary halt. As those who had miraculously survived breathed a sigh of relief, they dared not linger any longer. With renewed determination, they charged out of the Swarm's encirclement!
