The Mech Touch - Chapter 6991
Chapter 6991: Too Strong
Just as expected, the First Sword Mark III was able to collapse the spatial barrier of a greater phase lord all at once.
This was the phase lord’s most formidable and troublesome layer of defense. Its strength was so great that it had stopped many ace mechs from inflicting any serious damage onto their opponents.
It took an unreasonable amount of time and energy to deplete the spatial barrier of most phase lords.
Although red humanity was constantly developing better and better countermeasures, none of these solutions could match the absurd ease in which a weapon-grade superdimensional ace sword was able to pop the Fifth Lord’s spatial barrier as if it was a bubble!
Even if the Decapitator enjoyed the amplification from Saint Dise’s true resonance, this was just icing on the cake in this specific circumstance.
Many people gained a better appreciation of the offensive potential of weapon-grade superdimensional matter.
They also knew that only high-ranking mech pilots could best realize the potential of this material.
Many observers now looked forward to seeing whether the First Sword Mark III could inflict a major wound onto the greater phase lord.
Yet before the ace mech could plunge her superdimensional Decapitator through the Saint Blocker raiment, the Fifth Lord threatened to kick the machine from below!
Superdimensional mech or not, any machine would get punted away like a ball when struck in such a manner!
The kick came so quickly and suddenly that Saint Dise did not have the time to accumulate her power and execute another extraordinary sword technique.
In addition, the First Sword’s Electro-Reactant Flight System had already overloaded a moment before. It was technically infeasible to generate another powerful impulse that could help the ace mech evade the surprise kick.
The First Sword Mark III was completely inferior to the non-superdimensional Dark Zephyr Mark III in this aspect.
After all, the latter was an ace light skirmisher that excelled at speed and evasion.
This left the First Sword Mark III in a vulnerable position!
The phase lord moved so quickly that most people only managed to see a blur.
By the time the Fifth Lord’s body stopped its rotation, he had already completed his counterattack!
This time, the observers became shocked for the umpteenth time.
“He missed!”
“No, it is more than that. Look at his foreleg!”
Of his four hooved legs, one of them had turned into a stump!
The limb had practically halved in length!
What was impressive was that the section that got cut clean in half happened to be covered by alien superdimensional alloy.
Even if the coverage of the Saint Blocker raiment was thinner at the limbs, ordinary ace mech weapons shouldn’t have been able to pierce through all of this solid matter so easily.
Yet not only had the First Sword Mark III managed to cut through it once, her Decapitator managed to slice the limb off completely, which meant that she had cut the armor on the other side as well!
The aliens reacted with horror at this result. If the superdimensional ace mech was able to chop off an armored limb with so much ease, then the protection offered by the Fifth Lord’s Saint Blocker raiment was likely minimal!
The blood that largely consisted of phasewater flowed freely from the disturbingly smooth cut.
It took several long seconds for the phase lord’s flesh to close and plug the arteries.
It was as if the Fifth Lord of Bis’qet refused to admit that he had been wounded to such a terrible degree after getting struck just once.
Yet as much as he tried to deny this reality, the human false god had proven without a shadow of a doubt that she could not only wound him, but kill him with ease!

The greater phase lord immediately became beset by both fury and panic!
“#$&&$@&!”
“THIEF! YOU HUMAN PESTS NOT ONLY SEEK TO STEAL OUR STARS, BUT YOU HAVE DESECRATED THE BONES OF THE ELDER GODS! SURRENDER YOUR STOLEN GOODS AT ONCE!”
The ace pilot did not even deign to answer this ridiculous request.
Her confidence in her blade had grown. The superdimensional version of the Decapitator was on a completely different level compared to its previous iteration!
Combined with her willpower and extraordinary sword style, she had become much more certain about achieving her objectives in this battle!
After circling around one last time, Saint Dise had gained the full measure of her current adversary.
She briefly paid attention to the other two greater phase lords.
After witnessing how much the Fifth Lord of Bis’qet had suffered, the Protector of Karnak and the Endless Stomach did not slow down.
They continued to use their best speed to advance forward. It would only take a short amount of time before one of them came close enough to interfere with her fight.
Saint Dise could instinctively feel that she would have a much harder time defeating the other two champions.
One of them possessed superior superdimensional equipment and techniques while the other could withstand bladed weapons a lot better.
She needed to finish off her current foe quickly.
With that in mind, she no longer thought of holding back.
Now that she had a much better read on the performance of her opponent’s superdimensional equipment, she was ready to deliver the coup de grace.
Her First Sword Mark III circled around yet again and relied on her Electro-Reactant Wings to propel her forward at full power!
The flight system had played an excellent role so far.
Although it was not enough to make the ace mech as mobile as an ace light skirmisher, it still elevated the mobility of the Mark III far beyond the level of the Mark II!
Right now, Saint Dise relied upon its raw power to quickly build up as much momentum for her ace mech as possible!
The Fifth Lord of Bis’qet fully experienced her naked killing intent.
The ace pilot did not hide her intentions at all. Deception was a weapon for the weak. The strong had no need to resort to such a measure to defeat her opponent.
Perhaps she was underestimating the greater phase lord a bit, but Saint Dise was almost certain that she had exhausted the strongest means of the Fifth Lord.
Against almost any other ace mech, the greater phase lord wouldn’t have been reduced to the point where a few exchanges of blows would already leave him in such a pathetic state.
Yet this was precisely what happened.
The unexpected repeated setbacks thoroughly unbalanced him and made it difficult for him to adapt to the current circumstances.
Yet the Fifth Lord ultimately managed to recover his mood in a short amount of time.
He just needed to survive.
As long as he could withstand another attack run, then the other two greater phase lords would finally catch up and put the human false god under much greater pressure.
So long as the three of them combined their forces, it should be impossible for the ace mech made out of high-quality godbone to take away his life!
Although he felt tempted to fully unfold his true body and confront his current foe at his greatest state, the Fifth Lord of Bis’qet resisted this impulse.
Past cases had repeatedly shown that this was a mistake. The nunser phase lord knew he would become so slow that it would be impossible to evade or hit a fast and tiny ace mech.
With the penetration power of her greatsword, she could chop through his enormous body with impunity!
So what if she needed to swing her body a lot more times in order to damage a significant part of his true body?
She only needed to hit a vital organ in order to kill him entirely!
The Fifth Lord therefore had to prevent this at all cost.
He maintained his current size and flipped the orientation of his Saint Piercer arm so that its flat side faced his opponent.
The phase lord made the risky decision to physically push the ace mech with the end of his weapon.
Only by doing so would he be able to push away the threatening machine in spite of getting shortened by a second cut.
Saint Dise easily read her opponent’s intentions. She had no intentions of changing her plan or backing away.
As the First Sword Mark III launched her latest and possibly her final attack run against the Fifth Lord of Bis’qet, the ace pilot began to channel one of her oldest but also iconic sword techniques.
Her Saint Kingdom changed until it produced a large silhouette of the founder of the Swordmaidens.
These days, her existence was a legend to the contemporary Swordmaidens, many of which joined the mech legion long after joining the Larkinson Clan.
While Dise had grown far stronger and risen far higher than Commander Lydia could ever dream of, the ace pilot still respected her old leader from the bottom of her heart.
She channeled her love, her heartfelt respect and her regret for the deceased woman’s inability to witness the Swordmaidens at their current height into the Decapitator.
At the same time, Dise also sent Respa into her superdimensional greatsword.
The companion spirit not only offered a direct enhancement, but also enabled Dise to resonate with the Decapitator to a significantly greater extent.
Soon enough, the energy manifestation of a larger blade extended from the actual weapon!
As the First Sword Mark III almost reached her target, she did not do anything to avoid a collision with the reversed Saint Piercer this time!
Saint Dise only a loud cry before the tip of her augmented greatsword struck the enemy’s superdimensional weapon!
“SWORD OF LYDIA!”
Her words rang throughout the battlefield, surpassing the limitations of distance and vacuum before ringing into everyone’s ears.
Their deeper meaning pressed down on any intelligent mind no matter whether they were human or alien!
The power of the Decapitator was unstoppable.
Although the front end of the energy manifestation crumbled fairly quickly, the physical tip of the weapon-grade superdimensional blade pierced through without stopping!
All along the length of the reversed polearm, the straight greatsword continued to cut through the alien superdimensional alloy as if it was trying to split a lengthy sausage in half!
The ace mech continued to push forward with astounding speed. She hardly lost any of her formidable momentum while continuing her cutting efforts.
By the time the Decapitator had cut through a third of the polearm’s length, the ace mech finally altered her course and flew upwards!
There was no time or opportunity for the Fifth Lord to lash out with another kick.
The superdimensional ace mech’s latest absurd feat had completely broken his cognition.
By the time he mustered the thought of resisting, the First Sword Mark III’s glowing blade punched straight through the helmet of his Saint Blocker raiment and predictably offered no meaningful resistance!
The Decapitator ultimately pierced directly into his skull and devastated a large portion of his brain matter.
Almost everyone froze.
Even the reinforcing phase lords stagnated in their attempts to help their fellow native god.
The First Sword Mark III launched a few more attacks against her unresisting foe.
Once she became sure that she completely ruined the greater phase lord’s brain, her intuition told her that she had successfully ended the powerful foe’s life.
By the time her ace mech pulled out the Decapitator, none of the phasewater-infused blood clung to her blade.
“The Fifth Lord of Bis’qet has… perished. Saint Dise and her First Sword have managed to kill him… in just under a minute.”
“…”
This was not the first time that a Larkinson ace pilot managed to slay a greater phase lord.
Yet this time was different.
Saint Dise had undoubtedly demonstrated her strength, but that alone shouldn’t have been enough to completely abuse a greater phase lord of this caliber to the point of snuffing out his life in such a short amount of time.
Everyone knew without question that the ace pilot owed much of her stellar performance to superdimensional technology!
“T-Too strong!”
