Chapter 1341: Chapter 529 Attrition Tactics Chapter 1341: Chapter 529 Attrition Tactics The AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, after undergoing a Drone Upgrade and being enhanced twice by the Mysterious Power, saw a significant boost in their power, particularly their armor-piercing capability, which elevated to unbelievable levels. However, their power was still insufficient to penetrate the hard body of the Mechanical Monkey.

The Mechanical Monkey, whether due to a Bug in its program or by its original design, didn't move an inch in the face of incoming Missiles, making no attempt to dodge. Instead, it would fire Energy Beams to destroy any detected assailant. While this showed off its formidable Air Defense capabilities, it also gave Yan Fei a method to counter it.

If the Mechanical Monkey had more patience and let the AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles pound it, it would have realized these Missiles couldn't inflict any damage on its body. Moreover, with only a 10-kilometer range of attack, the Drone, positioned 15 kilometers away from the Mechanical Monkey, couldn't reach it with the Missiles, which would self-destruct after traveling 10 kilometers.

Unaware of the AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles' combat data, the Mechanical Monkey would destroy them all upon sight. If it hadn't destroyed those Missiles, it would soon realize they were all bluster without any real threat, and that its Energy Beam destruction of these Missiles was an exercise in futility that only depleted a large amount of Energy.

It was precisely by identifying this critical weakness of the Mechanical Monkey that Yan Fei established the tactic of launching AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles to deplete the creature's Energy. The AGM-114 weighed only 0.1 tons each, and the Drone had a total Missile carrying capacity of 92 tons. If the payload was entirely converted into AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, the Drone could launch as many as 920 of them. The Mechanical Monkey's use of Energy Beams to destroy them would result in astronomical Energy consumption, an amount that even a being crafted from superlative technology couldn't withstand.

In a very short time, the Mechanical Monkey had destroyed a hundred incoming AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, but the sky did not run out of them. From a zone 15 kilometers away, where it was beyond the Monkey's attack range, the Drone continued to fire AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles at the Mechanical Monkey.

In the dark night sky, another barrage of AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, resembling a flurry of petals scattered by celestial maidens, appeared in groups of hundred. Behind the hundred Missiles were another two groups, each also consisting of a hundred AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles.

The Mechanical Monkey quickly locked on to the three hundred incoming AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, continually firing Energy Beams from its eyes to destroy them all before they got within five kilometers.

Although the Drone launched many AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, their flight paths were not along the same straight line. Thus, the Energy Beams from the Mechanical Monkey couldn't annihilate multiple Missiles in one shot. It had to fire an Energy Beam at each Missile, one by one, to destroy every incoming one, leading to a tremendous waste of Energy.

After the first four hundred AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles were obliterated, when the fifth group of hundred Missiles flew in, the firing rate of the Mechanical Monkey's Energy Beams dropped significantly–it was evident that its internal Energy was running low. Eventually, the Mechanical Monkey was unable to shoot any more Energy Beams and could only watch helplessly as the last ten AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles approached.

But then, to the Mechanical Monkey's surprise, the last ten Missiles self-destructed upon entering the final 5-kilometer range. It quickly calculated the maximum range of the incoming Missiles and realized the mistake it had made. However, it was clearly too late for such an epiphany, as its Energy was almost entirely exhausted from the recent defensive effort, leaving it incapable of intercepting the incoming Missiles.

The Mechanical Monkey's Energy reserve had originally been abundant, and under normal combat conditions, the Energy within it would have been sufficient to defend against at least 500 various types of Missiles launched by seventy to eighty aircraft, potentially deciding the outcome of a battle. Yet, Yan Fei's Drone Avatar was like a Bug, with a terrifyingly high carrying capacity for Missiles. If converted entirely into AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, it could launch as many as 920 in a single day, draining the Mechanical Monkey's Energy entirely.

After expending 500 AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles to wear down the Mechanical Monkey, the Drone still had a significant combat power remaining, with 31.92 tons of payload. Still, Yan Fei wasn't complacent. He continued probing, and the Drone proceeded to launch four AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missiles. These four AGM-129 Missiles crossed through the airspace controlled by the Mechanical Monkey and headed towards the entrance of the Underground Military Fortress at the end of the canyon below.

Observed by the Quantum Radar, although the Mechanical Monkey detected the incoming AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missiles, the extinguished red lights in its eyes did not light up again, clearly showing its incapability of firing Energy Beams for interception. It could merely look on as the four AGM-129 Missiles passed through its defense area and flew towards the end of the canyon below.
