Chapter 615: Chapter 389: A Single Rider Challenges!
(Congratulations to Grandmaster “Bored Aaaah”! Congratulations to the newly promoted Protector “West Wind Tree Rain”!)
The mushroom cloud covered such a wide area with such devastating power that when the explosion began, the figure of the Extreme Special Soldier was immediately engulfed in the roaring flames.
This scene startled countless people.
With a grave voice, Jin Ruisi spoke into the microphone, “The intensity of this competition has exceeded our imaginations. An Extreme Special Soldier from Loki Heavy Industry, right at the foot of the Central Peak, just stepped on a high-explosive anti-mecha landmine. This landmine belongs to the Deceitful Warrior from Spider Weapon Company, which had landed on the mid-slope of the Central Peak just minutes ago. No one expected that the anti-mecha landmine would be silently planted…”
“Now the fierce high-temperature flames have covered everything, all we can do is pray that the Extreme Special Soldier survived this sudden attack.”
The cameras also fixated on the rising thick smoke, as the Mecha Association needed to update the real-time data.
“That’s really despicable.”
“The placement and timing of this landmine were just too coincidental, it’s just bad luck for the Extreme Special Soldier.”
“I don’t want a mecha to fall like this, killed before even seeing the opponent. No one would accept that.”
…
Audiences began a buzzing discussion; many who had high hopes for the Extreme Special Soldier did not want to see their beliefs fall.
Outside those fierce flames, suddenly a rock moved, and then people noticed that it was actually a mecha.
Its camouflage pattern blended completely with the surroundings, and even when the mecha stood up, people could see the camouflage automatically adjusting to maintain the same hue as its surroundings.
Dynamic coating system!
That was the Deceitful Warrior!
A thought simultaneously occurred to the audience: This mecha was utterly sneaky.
Inside the cockpit of the camouflaged Deceitful Warrior, a man with a skull tattoo on his face sported an unspoken evil smile, “I hate it when others have similar tactical goals to mine. Thermite high-explosive landmines, a sudden explosion from below, combined with temperatures over 2700degC, this must have been the opening fireworks of the game… Hahaha, this chaotic battle is my realm! Let me add something extra.”
The camouflaged hands of the Deceitful Warrior suddenly plunged into the ground, its form crouching, with two dark muzzles of shoulder cannons emerging from the armor on its back.
Thud, thud, thud!
Sounds similar to howitzer fire rang out, and four round bombs traced an arc through the air before falling into the flames.
Boom, boom, boom!
This part of the mountain was directly blasted away, the extreme temperatures even melted the collapsing rocks.
Some spectators still hoping for a miracle looked on in disbelief; they couldn’t believe that at the very start of the match, the mecha that always brought them shock and hope was now consumed by explosions and magma.
Jin Ruisi still hadn’t announced, as the Mecha Association needed a definite result, so the screen still displayed 70 names.
The name of the Extreme Special Soldier still glowed brightly, giving people hope.
“Is it over?”
“This mecha has always delivered miracles to us, I personally believe it won’t be destroyed just like that…”
As the smoke cleared, looking at the melting magma formed from the collapsed giant rocks, Jin Ruisi also fell into silence.
There was no sign of any mecha, completely swallowed by the magma.
Now that magma had begun showing some black in the center, an image of boiling lava cooling down.
The Extreme Special Soldier was about to become a stone specimen…
Hmm, the black cooling magma began to spread outward.
A few seconds later, the glowing red magma had disappeared.
Ah, it’s already solidifying into stone.
Didn’t you see the magma had completely cooled down, and then a bit of blue appeared in the middle…
A bit of blue?!
Something suddenly exploded in his mind, and Jin Ruisi abruptly pulled off his sunglasses.
Yes, that was blue, a kind of blue that existed under extreme cold.
A hint of ice-blue rose from the center and then, in an instant, it was like frost descending upon the earth, covering the entire molten pit.
It was a volcanic rock strewn with countless ice crystals.
Crack, crack, crack, numerous fissures emerged on this cooled lava.
That was the sound of rock contracting under extreme cold.
The pilot inside the Deceitful Warrior, with a skull on his face that kept pulsating, revealed an indescribable ferocity in his eyes, “No matter what kind of weird thing you are, die this time!”
“Super Heavy Bombardment–Mother-child Cluster Bomb!”
Both shoulder cannons retracted into the Mecha Body, while a giant cannon kept assembling on the back of the entire mecha, its length having surpassed ten meters!
The huge and dark muzzle pointed high upward.
A violent gust of wind gusted from the ground, and a circle of visible shockwaves spread from around the Deceitful Warrior.
Then, a terrifyingly large warhead violently struck mid-air, and moments later, an angled parabola was formed at the extreme.
The massive warhead turned direction in mid-air and then plummeted towards the cooled lava pit.
A loud whoosh sounded, and when it was less than 200 meters from the ground, the giant warhead exploded violently, filling half the sky with blackness.
Those were countless individual bombs released after the explosion of the main bomb.
These bombs densely packed together, enveloping the ground below.
Just then, the numerous fissures finally covered the entire pit.
Boom!
The mountain split, a dark shadow erupted with a ferocious momentum from the cooled lava.
A stunning ice-blue and a passionate red, two light wheels lit up by its side.
That dark shadow, from the moment it burst forth from the earth, charged towards the still semi-kneeling Deceitful Warrior diagonally above.
The mecha’s outer shell was covered with undulating lava, even the shoulders and feet displayed a boiling red appearance.
In the mecha’s hands, a stunning and splendid phantom alternately flickered.
Inside the cockpit, Mu Fan’s eyes were bloodshot.
The massive explosion had just transmitted from beneath his feet, the extreme heat nearly piercing through the G-Frame’s buffer protection layer. Had it not been for the instantly triggered FI Phase Force Field by the molten Flame Rain Frost Blue, the Extreme Special Soldier’s shell wouldn’t have melted, but Mu Fan would have definitely been roasted alive inside the cockpit.
“Directly trigger the force field, engine load increased, energy loss now doubled.”
“Mu Fan, radar can’t recognize the mecha.”
Black continuously reminded him, feeling that its host seemed genuinely angry now, and didn’t dare to speak any other rubbish.
“No need, I have it locked in the optical scope.”
Not yet participating in the Throne battle, and even just climbing a Central Peak nearly cost him his life, filling Mu Fan with a raging fire inside.
Both hands turned into a phantom on the control panel, waves of intersecting trajectories appearing.
Soglier Incredibles, Arc Light Step Forward Slash Advanced Skill–Big Wheel Charge!
In the rapid rush of the dark shadow, those plentifully scattered High Explosive Warheads finally hit the ground, two immense Light Wheels impeccably defended its vicinity.
Numerous warheads intersected with the light wheels.
Then people saw the mecha create a trail of black afterimages that instantly… deflected these countless warheads.
Rapidly running, explosions marked its sides, debris flew all around.
But behind this wildly surging figure, there was a distinctly demarcated safe zone, exactly where the Extreme Special Soldier had dashed through.
The Deceitful Warrior seemed to notice the abruptly changing situation on the field, the Mechanical Master still pondered how this mecha had survived such extreme heat.
But now it was too late to escape.
A hero prevails in a narrow path encounter!
The Deceitful Warrior’s body leaned forward again, its back’s giant cannon barrel aimed directly at the Extreme Special Soldier, a yellow light flickered within, clearly about to unleash a terrifying attack the next second.
But at this moment, the Extreme Special Soldier, having burst through the hail of Cluster Bombs unscathed with eyes of awe along the way, planted its foot on the ground and leapt high into the air.
Both Light Wheels disappeared by its side.
The beautifully aesthetic Flame Rain Frost Blue appeared in the right hand of the Extreme Special Soldier, but now, the Extreme Special Soldier held the long spear reversed, in a prelude to a javelin throw, stretching its arm backward to the maximum.
The Cluster Gun Tip, glowing with flaming red luster, shone under the starlight with captivating colors that imprinted upon every spectator’s mind.
“Hah!”
Mu Fan released a beast-like roar from his throat and thrust his right hand, fitted with the Coordination Device, forward vigorously.
The Extreme Special Soldier’s tensed right arm finally hurled it forward.
Just as on Asteroid 131, where he had thrown the Ripper like a flag-made spear to save Tracy and eliminate four giant Plasma Worms,
This time, the spear flew like a dragon!
The Flame Rain Frost Blue silently pierced the air barrier, intertwining with two flowing lights and colorful phantasms.
The burning spear tip entered unobstructedly into the Mecha’s head, then continued to penetrate horizontally into the interior, and the moment the frost-blue hue on the spear touched the Mecha Body, myriad Ice Crystals emerged.
The transition from extreme heat to extreme cold ensured that the bright yellow light inside did not blaze up but instead was forever frozen within the giant cannon.
“Hum!”
The long spear nailed directly into the ground.
The Extreme Special Soldier’s extended right palm fiercely clenched.
Power Field Cutting!
Bang~
The Deceitful Warrior exploded into a sky full of ice fog.
Leaving behind only that still beautiful long spear–Flame Rain Frost Blue.
The Extreme Special Soldier leaped once more, landing heavily on a giant rock, its right hand resting again on the spear of the Flame Rain Frost Blue.
The Extreme Special Soldier looked down at the fragments on the ground, then slowly withdrew the long spear, its tip grinding against the rock as it was positioned by his side.
A faint red glint passed through its eyes.
A duel of knights!
Watching this scene of a Mecha covered in cooled magma with a rugged sense standing atop a huge rock, spear in hand, the audience was thrilled.
This moment, the Extreme Special Soldier was exceptionally cool!
The Observers from rival companies spoke sour words while generously snapping photos with their cameras.
“Damn, this Mecha is definitely the dark horse of this competition, an unknown small company with an extremely ugly Mecha, attending without any logistic support.
This itself could make for a highly engaging novel, but this Mecha keeps revealing incredible technologies in moments of near death.”
Now, after several instances of reporting incomplete information, they had been scolded harshly by their superiors.
“Ah, after this competition, this company is definitely going to be famous.”
Behind this group of Observers was an assembly of wild fans, their cheers drowning out the Sky Mother Ship.
Yes, this brutal combat was exactly what they wanted to see.
Kill, kill, kill!
[Spider Weapon Company–Deceitful Warrior Mecha destroyed, eliminated from the competition.]
On the giant screen of the Sky Mother Ship, the number of names instantly dropped to 69.
Without any Mecha having claimed the throne, already two Mechas along with their Mechanical Masters had met their fatal end.
The brutality of the competition, in this moment, spoke for itself.
Naturally, Mu Fan wasn’t aware of the changes outside, he just looked at the engine Energy in the cockpit which had dropped to 80%, his brows deeply furrowed.
“The Extreme Special Soldier is starting to show unfavorable results from structural damage; Mu Fan, you must carefully plan your next fight.”
“Hmm, advance toward Central Peak, and find the Sky-splitting Bird.”
The Extreme Special Soldier slightly bent its legs, the black Mecha with sixteen metallic muscles began sprinting up the mountain.
When this scene appeared, many spectators showed puzzled expressions.
This Mecha had so far demonstrated the capabilities to compete for the Iron Throne, but why was it climbing upward while everyone else was racing toward the throne?
Observers watched the climbing figure and turned their gaze toward the special spectator area.
The Ran Family chuckled lightly, eyes on the scene below, but spoke to someone beside him, “Mechanical Master Naden, please explain to everyone.”
After speaking, he retained an aloof and unconcerned demeanor.
Naden slightly turned his eyes to glance at the Ran Family beside him and snorted coldly through his nose before picking up the microphone.
When this youth named Mu Fan appeared, he was quite distinctive; initially thought to be quickly forgotten, but as one brilliant battle after another unfolded, Naden began to pay more attention to this company, this Mecha.
Now, he had a certain fondness for the Extreme Special Soldier; after all, any warrior who constantly fights forward with a do-or-die attitude deserves respect.
“The movement of the Extreme Special Soldier must have a special significance; his not rushing toward any throne indicates that the Mechanical Master of this Mecha has already outlined a clear blueprint for this battle. Central Peak is the highest point in this area, here, radar signals could broadcast without hindrance, and the effectiveness of optical observation devices would be greatly amplified.”
Naden paused here, watching the black Mecha that had finally climbed to the peak, and continued, “So, this Extreme Special Soldier probably wants to observe the battlefield. This move also indicates another point, which is that this Mecha…”
“–has the confidence to surpass others later!”
With those words, anticipation gleamed in Naden’s eyes as he aroused the audience’s curiosity, “So, we await to see which direction this Mecha will choose for its breakthrough.”
The Extreme Special Soldier now stood atop a giant rock at the mountain’s summit, its view encompassing hundreds of kilometers around.
In the uninhabited Land of Bright Star, the air was free of any impurities, with the clear sky a brilliant blue.
The eyes of Mu Fan, sharp as an eagle’s, grew even more intensely blood-colored rather than fading.
Under the Blood-colored Vision, dynamic vision was enhanced to a terrifying degree.
Who knew that within this Mecha, there resided a youth with such keen vision?
The Mecha’s active radar was also maximized at this moment; located at the very center of the huge map, it detected signals from many Mechas, but they paid no mind.
Being at the center yet the farthest from the Iron Throne, what did it matter?
“Blue Capital Military Arts, Sky-splitting Bird, where exactly are you?” the youth muttered.
Suddenly, a gleaming white figure flashed across the horizon, creating consecutive sonic booms that even caused afterimages of the Mecha to appear in the regular audience’s view.
Mu Fan’s eyes suddenly widened, then a cold smile surfaced.
Three pairs of wings…
Sky-splitting Bird!
Under the curious gazes of countless spectators, a second flame trail appeared behind the black Mecha’s engines.
Undead Second Tier stance activated!
The Extreme Special Soldier, armed with a long spear, aimed toward the southeast, and from that rugged Central Peak, it leaped forward.
A circle of white mist exploded around it, sonic boom occurring.
The entire Mecha was plunging toward the ground from the vertical cliff, its Flame Rain Frost Blue spear flashing through the air, trailing a line of shattered rock and earth dragons upon the cliffside.
The dazzling spear afterimage appeared in everyone’s sight.
At that moment, the momentum of the Extreme Special Soldier almost took the spectators’ breath away. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
