"Is this really possible?"
Lin Yuan was equally shocked. He had originally thought that the so-called Tactical Jump relied on a Starship to execute, which seemed quite normal. After all, in Mechanical City, advanced Battleships and even Mechanical Warriors of higher tiers possessed similar capabilities.
So, it didn't seem impossible for a few geniuses from the Seventh Training Base to assemble an old Battleship into something capable of performing a Tactical Jump.
However, what was unfolding now was not a Battleship but individual entities—thousands of them!
This felt like an outrageous cheat!
How could this be? How could the Seventh Training Base be so powerful? If that were the case, what chance did the Ninth Training Base have?
They might as well surrender!
Because this was nothing short of a crushing massacre!
At that moment, all Target Students in the Ninth Training Base shared this confusion, which indirectly led to a significant drop in morale.
It was unfair!
Even Lin Yuan thought the same. It was akin to air-dropping a group of high school students directly into enemy territory.
Fortunately, he had already prepared countermeasures in advance. As soon as those elites from the Seventh Training Base jumped over, he activated all Special Grenades! While most people in the Ninth Training Base were either furious or terrified, he launched a fierce counterattack.
Since Lin Yuan had previously deployed a substantial number of Special Grenades, the coverage area was extensive, affecting at least dozens of elites from the Seventh Training Base. Although they were powerful, it felt like they were running into a beating. By the time they realized what was happening, it was already too late.
In an instant, frost, flames, and the deep green colors of corrosive Grenades erupted in that area, creating what looked like a massive palette.
Of course, these attacks couldn't harm those elite E7-level fighters directly. However, temporarily restraining them was not an issue; Lin Yuan only needed that brief second.
In the next moment, all heavy weapons within Lin Yuan's defense zone opened fire simultaneously. This included two elite snipers and zero ordinary snipers. Instead of Sniper Rifles, they wielded more powerful Sniper Energy Cannons. Despite their limitations, at this moment, they were essentially shooting at stationary targets. What could be better than that?
The sudden onslaught of Swift Evasion struck the dozens of Elite members from the Seventh Training Base like a torrential downpour, leaving them stunned. They were all at E7 level, their overall strength formidable enough to instill fear. In a direct confrontation, ten of Lin Yuan would likely struggle to defeat even one of them.
However, at that moment, a single misstep led to further missteps. They never anticipated that the artillery fire set up by Lin Yuan would be so ferocious and so concentrated that there were no blind spots whatsoever. There was not even a sliver of opportunity for them to retaliate; they could only watch helplessly as their Health Points and Mechanical Bodies were rapidly dismantled and destroyed.
Not even their comrades had time to come to their aid.
In just three seconds, a series of delightful notifications chimed in Lin Yuan's Intellect.
"Beep! You have successfully killed opposing faction member H-456 in the Year-End Exam. As they are an E7 level Elite Mechanical Warrior and there is a significant disparity in strength, you receive double rewards: 0 Faction Points (Note: When this score reaches 100 points, you can voluntarily exit the Year-End Exam). Since the target is a confirmed special kill from the Pirate Alliance, you will gain 50,000 points of Pirate Alliance reputation."
"Beep! You have successfully repelled opposing faction member J77 in the Year-End Exam. As they are an E7 level Elite Mechanical Warrior and there is a significant disparity in strength, you receive double rewards: 10 Faction Points. Since the target is a confirmed special kill from the Pirate Alliance, you will gain 20,000 points of Pirate Alliance reputation."
...
In an instant, these two types of kill and repel notifications rang out thirty-six times, indicating that Lin Yuan's concentrated assault had nearly wiped out the enemy.
However, among these, only ten were completely killed; the remaining twenty-six were merely repelled. This was because those twenty-six had already accumulated enough Faction Points beforehand and seeing no way to break through, they chose to exit the Year-End Exam instead. It appeared that there were no rules preventing withdrawal during combat in this Year-End Exam, which significantly reduced Lin Yuan's gains.
Nonetheless, even with this reduction, Lin Yuan had struck it rich. In that brief moment, he amassed 460 Faction Points, successfully completing the objectives of the Year-End Assessment. Moreover, his reputation with the Pirate Alliance soared to 870,000 points.
This was absolutely insane; it felt like being hit by a jackpot worth billions.
However, at that moment, other defensive lines were in dire straits. Furthermore, Lin Yuan's action of taking down thirty-six opponents drew considerable attention, with Elite members from the Seventh Training Base converging on his position from all directions.
This time, Lin Yuan could not employ the same tactics again. Without any special environmental constraints, it would be challenging to contain these Elites with artillery fire. The previous situation was akin to airborne troops still suspended in mid-air; no matter how fierce the attack was, they remained vulnerable lambs. But once they broke free from such limitations, they would be like lions escaping from their cage!
"Beep! You have been locked on! You are facing immense danger!"
"Beep! You have been locked on! You are facing immense danger!"
Despite Lin Yuan having unleashed all heavy weaponry within his defense zone, he watched helplessly as over a dozen formidable E7-level Mechanical Warriors broke through and shattered the five lines of D-11 defenses in less than a minute. Even Commander L had 'fallen'!
It was simply too ferocious. Their mastery of Combat Skills and near-perfect team coordination showcased an alarming level of combat awareness.
Without a doubt, these experts were among the top-tier existences from the Seventh Training Base, and they were coming for Lin Yuan. After all, his actions had already provoked their wrath!
At this moment, Lin Yuan's heart raced with anxiety. He hoped they wouldn't retaliate; he just wanted to escape the Year-End Exam immediately. He had no courage to confront them! The gap in strength was too vast.
At least he had accumulated 460 Faction Points, which made this trip somewhat worthwhile.
But just then, a thought struck Lin Yuan. He still had 870,000 points of Pirate Alliance reputation! If he just fled now, all that reputation would be for nothing.
"Push forward! Hold them back!"
Lin Yuan commanded the pirates and Machine Soldiers he had summoned while activating all one thousand drones to launch suicide attacks against the dozen or so fierce opponents who had advanced within twenty miles. Meanwhile, he quickly gathered the Quartermaster of the Pirate Alliance. In his view, even if he exchanged all his reputation for Elite Pirates at once, it would be worth it. Even if he couldn't kill those tough foes, annoying them wouldn't be a mistake.
However, when Lin Yuan opened the exchange screen for the Pirate Alliance's Quartermaster, he discovered several unfamiliar pieces of equipment listed there, each with specific exchange conditions.
The first piece of equipment left Lin Yuan utterly astonished.
"Half-Finished Single-Person Tactical Jump Device: This device requires the total Faction Points of this camp to reach 1,000 points before it can appear. Exchange condition: 10,000 camp reputation points. Note: This item cannot be taken out of the Year-End Assessment; it will automatically disappear upon choosing to return. Total quantity of this item: 15 pieces; once all are exchanged, it will no longer refresh."
...
"What the hell! So that's how it is!"
In an instant, Lin Yuan understood completely. The Seventh Training Base wasn't cheating; they had uncovered more benefits within this Year-End Exam.
They had maintained the upper hand from the start, having killed nearly three thousand Target Students from the Ninth Training Base. Therefore, their total Faction Points gained were substantial. It was likely that days ago they had already exchanged for this half-finished single-person Tactical Jump device and then used high-level Mechanical Assemblers to complete its assembly, ultimately producing over a thousand single-person Tactical Jump devices!
In contrast, the Ninth Training Base had been suppressed all along and thus remained unaware that such a treasure was hidden in the Pirate Alliance's exchange list. Otherwise, how could they have been so thoroughly defeated at this moment?
But it was already too late for everything.
The overall strength of the Seventh Training Base was not necessarily much greater than that of the Ninth Training Base, yet this small gap was enough to change everything!
As Lin Yuan reflected on this, he did not hesitate to exchange for a Half-Finished Single-Person Tactical Jump Device. Although it could not be used immediately, Lin Yuan knew it was an opportunity. If he could dismantle this half Single-Use Tactical Jump Device, there was a chance he could successfully replicate it in the future.
Ultimately, if he managed to upgrade it successfully, he would possess a new trump card in the outside world!
However, many others shared Lin Yuan's thoughts. Just as he completed his exchange, the Half-Finished Single-Person Tactical Jump Device on the exchange list was swept away in an instant.
This made Lin Yuan gasp in surprise; indeed, the Ninth Training Base was filled with hidden talents!
At that moment, the fierce battle on the front lines had reached its peak. Many nodes on the Mechanical Fortresses defended by Team D-11 and Team D-1 had been destroyed and occupied, resulting in overwhelming attacks!
Yet no one chose to flee, as that outcome was no different from death.
The dozen or so experts from the Seventh Training Base resembled demons from hell; even in the face of concentrated artillery fire, they remained calm and composed. Among them, two Heavy Shield Mechanized Warriors at the forefront were particularly terrifying. Each stood nearly a hundred meters tall—one wielding dual shields and the other a massive single shield. Under their protection, even thirty Sniper Energy Cannons targeting them simultaneously could not breach their defenses.
Moreover, the Gravitational Field they unleashed together reached a staggering ten times normal gravity. Once inside this Gravitational Field, even specially designed Rocket Launchers and heavy weapons like Metal Tornado Storms struggled to take effect! (To be continued...)
