On the sandy ruins, a group of golden scorpions chased after the mechas flying ahead.

Just as the mechas were about to pull away, the artillery mecha and the guardian mecha in front suddenly stopped at a certain moment. Huo Yan, positioned at the rear, immediately asked when he saw the guardian mecha slowing down, "What's wrong? Running out of energy?"

[Mecha KID-14258 invites you to join the team channel communication.]

Huo Yan quickly agreed, and as soon as he entered, he heard Ying Chenlin's concise request on the communication channel, "Huo Ge, lend a hand."

Lend a hand? In the urgent situation, there was no time for lengthy discussions among the team members. Lu Xi, who entered the channel without fully understanding the situation, only saw the guardian mecha firing a shot at the scorpions below in the next second. The continuous paralysis effect slowed down the movements of the scorpions.

Without hesitation, Huo Yan readily agreed, "Sure, what do you want us to do? Both of us have only 40% energy left, and there's no spare energy."

Ying Chenlin was about to explain but unexpectedly heard Huo Yan's response and changed his mind, saying, "Collect some materials from the scorpions."

Huo Yan immediately stopped the mecha, very cooperative, "How can I help?"

If they were going to lend a hand, they needed to do it promptly. Huo Yan quickly moved to the front of the artillery and guardian mechas without any hesitation.

After several mechas slowed down, the scorpions below gathered even more closely.

To deal with scorpions in an energy-depleted situation, they had to focus their energy on precision. Ying Chenlin was a solo mecha pilot, requiring versatility and omniscience in the solo field. In the arena without teammates, everything needed to be judged and solved by him alone.

Solo mechas, unlike mechas optimized for team battles, didn't intentionally enhance a specific performance while weakening defense. The basic attributes of solo mechas were evenly developed, with no excessively outstanding attack capabilities but the ability for sustained combat.

Transitioning from solo to team battles primarily involved changing perspectives and assigning tasks to multiple individuals.

Ying Chenlin calculated the speed of energy consumption, confirming the feasibility of the target method.

"Artillery, fly high at the designated coordinates, and tank, protect them." Ying Chenlin surveyed the surroundings, "Control mechas, follow me. We need to gather all the scorpions together first."

"No problem." Huo Yan promptly flew to the side of the artillery mecha, observing the situation below. "But there are too many scorpions. Do you have enough energy?"

Among the three mechas, the artillery mecha had the highest attack capability, but it faced a problem. The attack program of the artillery mecha concentrated energy at a specific point for shooting. Therefore, the attack range of the artillery was limited.

He had just noticed that the remaining energy of the artillery was only around 50%.

The method of individually breaking through was too wasteful of energy. They might not finish dealing with the scorpions before losing most of their energy.

Ying Chenlin: "Gathering them together is sufficient."

Huo Yan: "Gathering?"

Lu Xi followed behind Ying Chenlin, only to see him swiftly enter the pile of scorpions. With a single sweep of the light knife, he picked up a scorpion. "Set your weapon output to the lowest, increase the frequency, and you take over."
