A/N: Yall I just finished reading probably the peakest genshin fic yet, its called "Genshin Impact: Using a Vest Knife to Make Players and Game Characters Cry" on the website WTR-Lab, you should definitely give it a read! But its super emotional so prepare for that.
"Go! Take it down!"
Jesse's passionate roar came from the cockpit of wind walker azure. The emerald-green wolf-shaped mecha kicked off its hind legs and charged toward Magbasa with an unstoppable momentum.
Azure element flames shot out from the mecha's joints, leaving a long trail of light behind it.
"Jesse, don't!"
Zane's warning came from thug red, the red mecha's mechanical arm suddenly stretching out to try and stop him.
But it was already too late—
"Bang!"
A deafening collision sounded as wind walker azure's alloy wolf claw violently struck Magbasa's wing.
The next second, the green mecha flew backward at three times the speed of its charge, plowing hundreds of meters of trenches into the ground before "boom," it slammed into a distant mountain range, leaving only two mechanical legs twitching outside.
"We don't have the advantage..."
Zane's mechanical voice held helplessness, and dangerous red light flashed on thug red's tactical screen.
"There's a 30-meter size difference, our weapons probably can't pierce its defense, and our energy reserves don't compare..."
Magbasa's height of fifty meters truly exerted immense pressure against the four mechas, which averaged twenty meters. (lei dou zi - mecha name is twenty-five meters.)
"Pfft! It's so strong..."
wind walker azure pulled itself out of the mountain. Its wolf-head cockpit cover was skewed, and Jesse's voice, full of static, complained.
"This thing is even harder than Ruotuo!"
"Suppressing fire!"
Zane immediately issued the order.
Instantly, the four mechas opened fire simultaneously:
The two close-in weapons systems on thug red's back spun frantically, unleashing hundreds of specialized armor-piercing rounds per second, forming a metal storm in the air;
wind walker azure's shoulder-mounted multiple rocket launcher continuously fired, sending rocket projectiles trailing exhaust flames like a swarm of bees toward the target;
water walker blue's eyes shot out high-energy lasers, the blue beams ionizing the air wherever they passed;
lei dou zi - mecha name opened all its weapon ports simultaneously, and a network of firepower, ranging from plasma cannons to electromagnetic railguns, instantly enveloped Magbasa.
"Boom! Boom! Boom—!"
The ceaseless explosions swallowed the Demon King Beast.
Magbasa, which had been attacking the Wolf King, cried out in pain and was forced to temporarily retreat a few steps.
Scorch marks appeared on its azure feathers for the first time, and corrosive blood dripped from several deeper wounds, etching the ground and causing plumes of white smoke.
"An opportunity!"
The Wolf King's electronic eyes suddenly lit up.
The mechanical structure on its back suddenly unfolded, and a Whip Claw shot out like lightning, precisely wrapping around the greatsword "Sirius Judgment" stuck in the ground hundreds of meters away.
"Clang!"
The greatsword sliced through the air and was caught steadily by the Wolf King.
Without hesitation, the twenty-meter-tall mecha leaped with full force, all its thrusters blasting dazzling blue flames, and the greatsword, accompanied by a grating sound of air being torn, stabbed straight toward Magbasa's chest—
"Pfft!"
The blade plunged deep into the Demon King Beast's body, and purplish-black blood spurted out like a waterfall.
Magbasa let out an earth-shattering wail, its eyes bloodshot.
It frantically swung its sharp claws, batting the Wolf King away like a fly.
Immediately after, it used its beak to bite the greatsword in its chest, and amidst the sickening sound of twisting metal, it forcibly pulled the sword out!
"Warning! Hull damage rate 42%..."
The Wolf King adjusted its posture mid-air, using the Whip Claw on its back to grab the ground and reduce the impact force.
It landed heavily on the ground, its armor plating covered in scratches, and electric sparks fizzing from its left arm joint.
Magbasa's condition was no better.
Black blood continuously gushed from the hideous wound on its chest, but the fierce light in its eyes grew even more savage.
The Demon King Beast raised the stolen greatsword like a javelin, clearly preparing to retaliate... "Everyone!"
Zane's mechanical voice suddenly boomed across the communication channel.
"Initiate Plan B!"
Inside the cockpits of the four mechas, four buttons of different colors lit up simultaneously.
Jesse, Elliot, and Matt slammed the buttons without hesitation, but only Zane's arm remained suspended in mid-air—
"Are you sure?"
thug red's AI inquired.
"That mode hasn't been tested yet."
Zane looked at Magbasa's increasingly high energy readings on the tactical screen, his mechanical voice resolute: "It's better than turning into scrap metal."
His arm fell heavily.
"Wait, there's also the Wolf King! This way is safer!"
Elliot's voice came from water walker blue, and the azure mecha suddenly turned its head toward the purple lei dou zi - mecha name.
The two mechas communicated through a tacit electronic signal, and Matt quickly returned an "OK" gesture.
The next moment, lei dou zi - mecha name's massive body suddenly performed a tactical roll, arriving in front of Lumine amidst flying dust.
Before Lumine could react, she was scooped up by the mecha's giant mechanical palm.
"What are you doing?!"
Lumine struggled desperately in the mechanical palm, her small fists hitting the metal with dull "thudding" sounds.
"My apologies."
Matt's voice carried an apology, but lei dou zi - mecha name's movements were decisive.
The mecha assumed a standard throwing posture, its mechanical joints emitting a humming sound of power charging.
"Wait! Matt, you're going to—Waaahhh!"
Lumine's protest instantly turned into a scream.
With a standard throwing motion, lei dou zi - mecha name hurled her toward the distant Wolf King like a cannonball.
In the fierce wind, Lumine's expression transitioned from shock to anger to utter despair, perfectly demonstrating what a "meme-style breakdown" looked like.
"Catch her!"
Elliot's water walker blue acted simultaneously, accurately throwing a glittering silver Transformation Device toward Lumine flying through the air.
The Transformation Device traced an elegant arc in the air, and the instant it touched Lumine's waist, it automatically snapped open into a belt.
Silver nanomaterials quickly covered her entire body. A streamlined mechanical helmet formed over her head, and her eyes glowed with icy blue light.
"Identity confirmed: Lumine, Traveler."
"Authorization code: Descenders."
"Pilot System Synchronization Rate: 999%..."
As the mechanical voice sounded next to Lumine's ear, the Wolf King had already sprinted to the optimal receiving position.
Its cockpit unfolded like petals, and soft guidance lights flashed inside.
"Thump!"
Lumine was "caught" in a perfect parabolic trajectory, landing securely in the pilot's seat.
The safety harness automatically wrapped around her and secured her, and the control interface unfolded before her like flowing water.
"Elliot! Matt! Prepare to die!!"
The Wolf King's loudspeaker amplified Lumine's roar so that it could be heard across the entire battlefield.
The killing intent in that voice caused the two offending mechas to simultaneously take half a step back, and even Magbasa temporarily ceased its attack.
"Well..."
Elliot's water walker blue made a gesture of surrender.
"We did it for victory..."
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!"
Zane's roar exploded in the communication channel, and blinding red warnings flashed on thug red's tactical screen—
Magbasa was frantically charging power, its scarlet eyes locked onto them, and the Wind element in the air nearly solidified into palpable oppression.
Lumine stopped hesitating and slammed her palm down on the shining silver button in front of her.
"Ultimate Protocol activated—Sky Fusion!"
The five mechas simultaneously erupted in dazzling light, and energy torrents intertwined in the air, forming brilliant patterns.
wind walker azure disassembled and restructured, transforming into the left shoulder armor. The emerald-green wolf-head pattern shone, and the multiple rocket launcher deployed;
water walker blue transformed into the right shoulder armor, generating an azure, fin-shaped shield, with water-like energy flowing across its surface;
lei dou zi - mecha name formed the core torso, heavy purple armor covering the entire body, with lightning leaping at the joints;
thug red restructured into the head. The crimson tactical visor locked onto the enemy, and the mechanical voice was cold and precise;
The Wolf King transformed into the legs and propulsion system. Wind Glider patterns appeared on the silver-white armor, and the Overloaded engine roared.
"Rumble—!!!"
The moment the fusion was complete, a shockwave swept across the entire battlefield. The dust was scattered, revealing the towering steel giant—
The sky judicator
The fifty-meter mecha stood tall upon the earth, holding the shield of the end in its left hand and the "heavenly principles star-slaying sword" in its right. Six sets of thrusters on its back unfolded like the wings of a god, and torrents of energy flowed through the armor seams, resembling the radiance of stars.
Inside the cockpit, five people sat before the circular control panel. Lumine occupied the central main seat, and the other four were arranged on either side.
"We are—"
"The Hilichurl Sky Squad!"
Jesse, Elliot, and Matt simultaneously struck their signature poses. Zane's mechanical arm reluctantly followed suit, while Lumine expressionlessly rubbed her forehead: "...Can you guys stop being so embarrassing?"
"Don't mind the details!"
Elliot laughed loudly.
"Let's go! Let this big bird see what real firepower is!"
Magbasa let out an angry shriek, its wings stirring up a destructive hurricane, but the sky judicator calmly raised its sword tip, and the inscriptions on the blade lit up one by one—
"The time for judgment has arrived."
The next moment, the mecha transformed into a streak of light and charged toward the Demon King Beast!
