Chapter 589: Chapter 364 True Profound Meaning, Gravity Star! (Two in One)
(Text: 5100 characters.)
Ultra-precise strike!
This was a shooting skill unique to Rodrick.
The two large armor-piercing bullets in the Spiral Charge were wrapped in a special energy, silent yet carrying an exceptionally cold killing intent.
In the cockpit of the Extreme Special Soldier, Mu Fan, who was speeding forward, gazed at the wind-worn rock column that was getting closer and closer.
At this moment, still in the first stage, the Extreme Special Soldier had just reached twice the speed of sound, and entering a burst state without spotting the enemy would only mean premature consumption of energy.
Mu Fan slightly shifted the shape of the Extreme Special Soldier in his hands to just brush past the giant rock column.
But at that instant, a stream of red information suddenly flashed through the data waterfall representing the radar.
A tiny jump also appeared on the radar dial.
For a typical Mechanical Master, this situation might have gone unnoticed.
“Is there a situation!?”
Mu Fan’s terrifying combat instinct let him immediately make the Mecha perform an incorrect step without even thinking more.
However, this misstep was only by a hair’s breadth.
This was merely a subconscious action by Mu Fan, but in the next moment when that loud impact resounded in the cockpit, Mu Fan felt as if he had been heavily struck.
Boom! Boom!
Before people could react, they noticed that the black Extreme Special Soldier grazing the giant rock column exploded in a burst of dazzling and eye-catching flames on its left shoulder.
Subsequently, the ground under the heavily armored Extreme Special Soldier exploded violently as the Mecha, running at high speed, was forcibly knocked out of supersonic state and flipped through the air seven or eight times before tumbling to the ground.
“Warning, warning!”
“Left shoulder armor damaged, penetrating damage detected! Left shoulder armor breach exceeds 20%!”
In the spinning cockpit, Mu Fan controlled the Mecha to take cover behind the rock column, looking at the combat screen flashing red lights while gasping heavily.
The flashing warnings resonated directly in his heart.
What was that sudden sniper attack about!?
Why was there no sign at all before the enemy fired?
“The opponent is using high-explosive armor-piercing bullets. Due to your sudden evasion, that bullet hit the edge of the left shoulder armor! This caused the enemy’s armor penetration prediction to go awry, and the bullet exploded after causing penetrating damage, while the other bullet missed.”
“Ballistic backtrack successful, radar identification complete, at a distance of 9 kilometers, around 80 meters above ground. Currently, due to the rock column behind, the Mecha is out of the opponent’s shooting range.”
Black’s voice sounded, and Mu Fan took a deep breath.
Until now, he had never encountered a sniper rifle that could damage the armor of the Extreme Special Soldier with just one shot.
“Armor shattered, Mecha functionality undamaged, transmission device still intact.” This was the only good news Black could offer.
But that was enough!
“He’s hidden himself well,” Mu Fan licked his lips, his bones making a crackling sound as he began to manifest a blood-colored vision.
The black Extreme Special Soldier, backed against the rock column, slowly got up.
At its left shoulder, a large black bullet hole was exposed on the bare outer shell, almost revealing the rock behind through the wound.
Witnessing this dreadful scene, the audience that had been cheering earlier suddenly fell silent, but only for a moment before a louder and crazier cheer erupted.
Who would have thought that the Extreme Special Soldier, which had delivered a spectacular counter-kill in the first round, would have its armor pierced early in this game?
This was the kind of suspenseful fight they wanted to see!
Killing and being killed, all in an instant, how thrilling!
At the Blue Capital Military Group’s host booth for this competition, Donald, amidst many reporters he had invited, watched this scene without blinking. As for Donald himself, he stood at the forefront, intently watching everything happening in the field.
When he saw the burst of giant sparks, Donald’s face revealed a satisfied smile, Rodrick was very smart and formidable.
Smart because he had remembered with just one mention, hence he targeted the opponent’s left shoulder this time, because the position of the Mecha also corresponded to the parts of the human body.
Calling Rodrick formidable was because at such a nearly impossible distance, he managed to heavily injure the opponent with such precision, and that too just within the first twenty seconds of the game starting!
Rodrick did not hold back this time and showcased a level far above the previous round.
The two Mechas still had nearly 9 kilometers between them, a distance that meant a lot for a shooting-type Mecha.
“Your Mecha is very powerful!”
“Is this really just an A-grade Mecha? You know, that Extreme Special Soldier blasted a triple-A grade opponent into bits in the first round.”
“Mr. Tang…”
The scenario he had guessed had so far not deviated much; inside the protective shield at the other end of the huge valley was the observation platform of Loki Heavy Industry, where now only a lone young girl stood.
When Wang Nuonuo saw the deep blue mecha at the top of the rock pillar, she first stared in shock, then unbelievably rushed to the edge of the cliff.
Her eyes fixated on the screen outside the protective shield.
She muttered, “It can’t be wrong, it must be… it must be!”
Even though some patterns had been added to its paint job, for Nuonuo, who had always kept this event close to her heart and had been preparing for the Mecha Combat Competition from the start, she was overly familiar with this mecha’s design.
This mecha…
How could it be the Extreme Special Soldier Ge-R!?
Wasn’t it said to have encountered Star Thieves?
This mecha’s operating rights were tied to three people.
They were her grandfather, herself, and Rodrick!
Could it be…
Suddenly, Mu Fan’s words from before flashed through her mind, and Wang Nuonuo murmured to herself, “Did Uncle Rodrick really deceive me?”
How could you truly betray Loki Heavy Industry!
A furious cry echoed in her heart, and at this moment, Nuonuo felt all the strength drain from her body as she collapsed powerlessly to the ground.
The sudden betrayal of someone she regarded as family was painfully heartbreaking.
No, I must tell the adults!
Nuonuo’s expression suddenly became resolute as Mu Fan was still fighting to help her.
With this thought, the girl abruptly picked up the communicator provided by the Mecha Association.
“Adult! Please be very careful, and if there’s any trouble, don’t force yourself to fight, I just want you to come back safe and sound. The opposite mecha… it’s Loki Heavy Industry’s second Extreme Special Soldier prototype!”
Her heart was trembling as she watched the mecha on the screen standing straight up, desperately hoping Mu Fan could hear her words.
But at that moment, a calm voice came through the communication.
“I know, I know that mecha is the second Extreme Special Soldier, and I also know that the Mechanical Master inside is Rodrick.”
Wang Nuonuo, stunned, looked at her Sky Communication device and said, “Then you…”
“Nuonuo, do you have a way to prove to the Mecha Association that this mecha belongs to Loki Heavy Industry?” Mu Fan asked straightforwardly, leaving no room for further questions from the girl.
“Yes! The joint of the Extreme Special Soldier prototype’s armor has a special mark from Loki Heavy Industry. It just needs to be irradiated with a specific spectrum to reveal the mark.”
“That will suffice.”
After saying this, Mu Fan ended the communication.
I will definitely bring back that mecha…
The Extreme Special Soldier’s silhouette bowed forward, standing in the shadow of the giant rock pillar, the entire mecha body resembling a silent monster.
“Are they scared stiff? Hahaha, I told you the Deep Blue Cavalry was awesome! I wonder who just now was speaking so arrogantly.” A group of enthusiastic young men said, then deliberately glanced at White Hair.
White Hair sat cross-legged, “Weaklings, you know nothing about power.”
“Damn it.”
“Your uncle!”
The group of young men rolled up their sleeves again.
…
With Mu Fan’s manipulation, the control console immediately entered a wave-like button pressing state, and the undulations grew faster and faster until finally, the wave turned into a furious surge slamming against the rocks.
Undead Second Tier status, activated!
“Lock on the target’s location, charge!”
The second hidden engine appeared, two bright blue flames surging out in an instant.
Boom!
With the two engines boosted to their maximum, the Extreme Special Soldier heavily stomped its foot, its right hand wielding a heavy sword, and the entire mecha body took ghostly steps in a Z-shaped Break Step, instantaneously appearing beside the giant rock pillar.
With a loud bang, a huge crater exploded beside him.
The audience who had been tense until now finally burst into cheers again, having seen the spirited fighting will of this black Extreme Special Soldier!
“Mu Fan, the speed can only reach Mach 3, affected by the injury on the left shoulder, the Mecha can’t increase its speed anymore. Unless… you forcefully activate Meteor 3.”
The fierce airstream swept through the shoulder hole to the rear, greatly increasing the difficulty of Mu Fan’s Chaotic Zigzag Step.
Every step had to adjust the Mecha Body’s balance under the strong air resistance.
From a high-altitude overview, this black silhouette was darting forward like lightning.
Undead Charge!
With an unstoppable momentum, this black Mecha, wielding a single sword, actually charged towards the Deep Blue Cavalry who had already secured a tactical advantage.
“The pilot of the Deep Blue Cavalry has shown us his superb marksmanship, and now the other party dares to charge! To be honest, teacher Sandy, I really admire the bravery of the pilot from Loki Heavy Industry, but the opponent is even more deceptive than a wolf in sheep’s clothing in this battle…”
“Teacher Sandy, I really can’t agree with you this time. On the contrary, I’m very optimistic about the Mecha called Extreme Special Soldier! Because this rapid movement makes it almost impossible for firearms to lock on.”
Rachel’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she watched the black Mecha moving like lightning below.
That was the freshman from Dingchuan Academy, who had just joined the Mecha Club!
That movement, it perfectly evaded all long-range firepower during the Academy invasion match, the Chaotic Zigzag Step.
“Didn’t you remember the last battle against the Gale Gladiator, teacher Sandy, with that scene like a black tsunami?”
“Uh, of course I haven’t forgotten, but the speed of the Extreme Special Soldier has already dropped to Mach 3 in the monitoring, and that is already the peak value. The damage to the Mecha is a fact, and I think nothing is impossible with the opponent’s unpredictable marksmanship!” Sandy naturally would not agree with a young girl who had just entered the commentating scene.
“Let’s wait and see,” Rachel retorted, not convinced. The two successfully conveyed this topic to the audience, demonstrating the art of commentating.
Of course, Rachel’s opinion was genuine, and for some reason, even though the situation just now was critical, she still had strong confidence in this black Mecha.
Atop the rock, the blue Extreme Special Soldier R still maintain a half-kneeling posture, steadily holding the lengthy and massive red sniper rifle.
Seeing that black lightning suddenly take shape after five seconds, Rodrick furrowed his brow.
“Unexpectedly using the Chaotic Zigzag Step, normally, five seconds would be enough to complete more than two sequence variables, but this Mecha hasn’t even completed one sequence posture. Nuonuo… I have to say, you’ve found quite the character.”
Though musing, Rodrick’s hands didn’t pause for a moment.
“Sadly, I’ve encountered too many opponents in my lifetime, this Extreme Special Soldier R is another exceptional one.”
Rodrick coldly pressed his hand on the control console.
At this moment, the blue Extreme Special Soldier R made a move that no one could understand–suddenly reaching its hand towards its back.
Click-click, the sound of mechanical gears engaging followed, and a strange mechanism with seven gun barrels arranged like a steel net was gripped in its palm.
The right arm shook slightly, and the barrel of the red rifle rapidly contracted and then expanded into a docking port the size of a cannon.
Then, the Extreme Special Soldier R methodically docked the thick butt of the seven-barreled gun to the rifle body.
A crisp metallic locking sound rang out.
Coldness flashed in Rodrick’s eyes as the shadow of the black lightning surged forward three kilometers in three seconds.
But please, stop here.
Click-click-click-click, seven consecutive sounds followed as the originally parallel seven gun barrels suddenly pointed in different directions and sizes.
A massive fan-shaped magazine was directly attached to the top of the linked barrels.
Undead Horizon–North Dipper Shooting!
Rodrick pulled the trigger in his hand.
Bang bang bang bang!
Seven times in quick succession, each with seven gun flashes, a dense rain of bullets shot from mid-air towards the ground in an instant.
This action was done in a flash, and even the speed of the armor-piercing bullets reached their target in an instant.
Thus, people could hardly track the trajectory of the bullets; what they saw was the afterimage dragged by the black Mecha, which seemed to be paused in that instant.
Then, numerous explosive airwaves blasted open around it.
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
The figure of that black Mecha still hadn’t burst through.
The billowing flames and rising black smoke clouded their vision.
But this was tantamount to announcing the outcome of this attack.
Sandy said proudly, “Miss Rachel, see, I told you, the Deep Blue Cavalry rated only A is simply too strong, not just the pilot, but the Mecha itself.”
Rachel’s eyes fixated on the black cloud below that was about to dissipate; she clenched her teeth and said, “The battle isn’t over yet.”
“Hahaha, unfortunately, reality is often cruel.” Sandy laughed triumphantly, ready to regain the upper hand in this round.
But the next second, his laughter got stuck in his throat, and a sudden burst of exclamations erupted from the audience.
A black figure holding a heavy sword above its head, with the tip pointing downward, majestically appeared.
Extreme Special Soldier!
This was indeed Loki Heavy Industry’s Extreme Special Soldier.
“How is it unharmed!?”
“My god, look at the sides of its Mecha Body, they actually blasted out two symmetrical craters?”
People were shocked as they watched the nearly symmetrical crater distribution on both sides of the Extreme Special Soldier, too astonished to speak.
“How is that possible, could this be… similar to using the heavy sword as a shield defense!?” the experienced Sandy pounded on the commentary desk with a fist and stood up, leaning forward.
Did that kid deflect all the bullets with a heavy sword?
My goodness…
When Sandy articulated this, the shouting crowd fell silent.
Then, moments later, a tide-like applause broke out.
This was the scene they wanted to see, this was a real competitive match.
Apart from the performance of the Mecha, there was the Mech Pilot’s stunning operation.
This was truly peak Fighting.
Thrilling, exhilarating!
Cheers and applause were generously given by the crowd.
The already pitted alloy giant sword heavily tapped on the ground as Mu Fan coldly eyed his opponent ahead.
This was the shield defense, initially used by driving the RX-16 Sword and Shield Mecha with inclined angle techniques to deflect force.
Under Mu Fan’s extraordinary physical condition, it was displayed in an amazing posture to everyone.
In the instant the opponent fired, Mu Fan, with Blood-colored Vision activated, successfully used the sword as a shield, embodying the most steadfast warrior, deflecting countless bullets to both sides.
As the dust settled, the blue thrusters lit up again.
Extreme Special Soldier, charging once more!
Undead Charge, never giving up until death.
Watching the Mecha flitting like a specter across the battlefield screen, Rodrick, an experienced Mechanical Master, finally re-hung his red rifle on his back, a steady voice rising in the cockpit.
“It’s up to you now, Augustine.”
Then, in the eyes of the audience, the deep blue Mecha slowly drew out the heavy weapon, which had never been used from the start, and within the process of mechanical assembly, an ultra-gigantic cannon, exceeding the entire length of the Mecha Body, appeared in the hands of the Mecha.
At the same time, four cables snapped out, connecting to the back, seemingly energized, the cables instantly inflated.
The audience was surprised at this moment but also felt a rising sense of excitement.
Because until now, the Deep Blue Cavalry had taken down the long cannon from its back for the first time.
“It’s over…”
Rodrick’s mixed feelings echoed within the cockpit:
“Sorry, Loki Heavy Industry.”
In the astonished gaze of the audience, the engines on the back of the Deep Blue Cavalry suddenly dimmed, then the armor around the circular nozzle simultaneously cracked, revealing an even larger metallic nozzle.
“Is this a concentric dual engine!? This Mecha also hid engines!”
Even the golden-haired sunglass-wearing man noticed, shouting in shock.
Fighting up until now, this Mecha had only just revealed its dual engines, indicating that its registration data was completely a ruse. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
Hiding dual engines, until now, it seems… other than that black Mecha called Extreme Special Soldier, there hasn’t been another!
With this thought, many people looked towards the center of the arena with puzzled eyes.
First, a hint of purple radiance shone in the center of the concentric engines, the next second, a deep purple light dazzled everyone’s eyes.
