Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy - Chapter 324

Chapter 324: Chapter 99: Undead Charge

(Congratulations to the new helmsman “Does Time Boil the Rain? Mighty Eagle”! Thank you for the generous reward!)

The Wind Speed Competitor’s engines roared like a hurricane, surging forward directly.

Now that the Extreme Special Soldier was no longer a remote mech, there was no need to maneuver around; Valentine wanted to finish off this crippled mech with one strike.

Mu Fan had long locked onto the Wind Speed Competitor’s figure in his vision, his body motionless.

The opponent was an experienced Quasi-Ace Mechanical Master, and given that the Wind Speed Competitor was extremely fast, the best defense when the opponent launched an attack was a defensive counterattack.

The deep blue plasma light blade remained still.

“Has that mech been scared stiff?”

“What a fool, using a traditional laser sword to clash with the opponent’s Michael Particle Beam Sword, believe it or not, the opponent will chop your body apart!”

The video images in the exhibition hall transmitted the scene in real-time to all the viewers.

True to its name, the Wind Speed Competitor’s swift surge strengthened the viewers’ desire to purchase; many had already decided to visit the Arabella Weapons Company’s booth once the match ended.

Meanwhile, at Loki Heavy Industry’s viewing platform, aside from Nuonuo constantly chanting for victory in her heart, everyone else looked at the opponent’s swift advance with eyes of despair!

“Levi, have you tested this mech’s close-combat capability?”

Levi shook his head, his face filled with guilt, “I’m not good at close-combat fighting, and if this mech really switches to close combat, mobility is its weakness.”

Yu Wenhai muttered to himself with a frown, “Why did Chairman Wang emphasize this prototype’s power when he spoke to me?”

The central arena was merely six hundred meters long, just a blink of an eye for a mech’s acceleration.

Valentine wore a cold smile; the Wind Speed Competitor’s beam sword was hidden but not activated, his gaze already fixed on his opponent’s right arm.

Let’s chop off your other hand too and see how you dare stand here.

Today there could only be one protagonist, and that was me and the Wind Speed Competitor beneath my feet!

Inside the cockpit of the Extreme Special Soldier, Mu Fan’s eyes were the epitome of Absolute Calm.

Dark Breath!

Under the state of Absolute Calm, his gaze continuously caught the opponent’s figure on the screen of the Half-Circle cockpit, his dynamic visual capturing ability even surpassing the constant reminders of the radar.

It’s close, getting close.

Valentine controlled the mech to stab the beam sword towards the lower part of his opponent’s right arm.

Stab, pick and chop.

It only required two steps; the opponent’s mech would be dismembered in his hands.

The eyes of the onlookers grew wider.

Adrenaline secreted at this moment.

Smash the opponent to pieces!

Mu Fan’s eyes remained tranquil without a ripple, his left hand performing a simultaneous six-button, four-group action on the control panel instantly!

His right hand spun the Coordination Device harshly backwards.

A miraculous move occurred.

The one-armed Extreme Special Soldier performed a rear spin of 180° on the spot, instantly turning its back to the Wind Speed Competitor.

And this move coincided precisely with the moment Valentine stabbed with his beam sword.

The tip of the sword was less than two meters from the Extreme Special Soldier’s right arm, but that two-meter distance did not shorten at all; instead, with the synchronous movement of both parties, Mu Fan perfectly transferred it to the left side.

And on the left side of the Extreme Special Soldier… there was no arm!

Hmm? What was that move just now?

But Valentine didn’t have time to think, as after the Extreme Special Soldier completed its spin, the laser sword in its right hand was already being reverse-thrust back-handedly.

The body movements changed rapidly, and the Wind Speed Competitor, taking advantage of its physique, ducked and simultaneously extinguished his light sword, the mech instantly bursting forward with greater speed, brushing past the empty left side of the Extreme Special Soldier in an instant.

Feet stomped on the Strong Ion Barrier around the edge of the arena, then the engines roared, swiftly shooting out a hundred meters and low-lying on the ground.

The audience, prepared to cheer, collectively froze; what just happened?

What on earth just happened!

Soon, a small picture-in-picture appeared in the upper right corner of the holographic projection screen, showing the previous scene in a five-time slowdown, finally allowing people to see clearly what had just happened.

The Extreme Special Soldier merely rotated in place, reverse-slashing with his laser sword.

The Wind Speed Competitor, having missed his strike, used his speed advantage to duck below the opponent’s back-handed counterattack and simultaneously used his feet to stomp on the ion barrier to timely escape the opponent.

That black mech just now… was it a fluke?

On Loki Heavy Industry’s side of the stands, Nuonuo shouted excitedly, “Boss, hit him hard!”

Next to her, a group of people gaped with colossal mouths; even Chuchu covered her mouth and widened her eyes in shock at the scene just witnessed… the one-armed Extreme Special Soldier had actually forced back the opponent’s attack.

Yu Wenhai felt the hairs on his body stand up – their prototype Extreme Special Soldier had not only blocked the opponent’s attack but also successfully pushed them back in a single strike?

At this moment, the audience, which had been stuck in a freeze, once again erupted into a wave of noise.

“Wind Speed Competitor, charge and smash the opponent!”

“With just one arm, so reckless, shred it!”

“Use that horizontal slash of yours!”

Valentine watched his opponent with cold eyes, his beam sword quivered as he switched to a two-handed grip.

The blade tilted and with a fierce slash, a faint purple sword shadow screen flew out.

That move, which caused the opponent to momentarily lose control, reappeared!

“Yes, that’s the one!!”

“So cool!”

But for Valentine, this was far from over.

At this moment, he redirected all 50% of the engine’s energy output to his beam sword.

This Michael Particle Beam Sword, the technological culmination of Arabella Weapons Company, was the company’s glory and pride!

He lifted the blade midair and then slashed downwards, followed by another horizontal strike, then another diagonal slash.

In one second, ten sword shadow screens burst forth from the blade.

A sheet of faint purple sword screens leapt forth!

The spectacular scene excited the audience to roar with exhilaration in the exhibit hall, in front of every light computer!

“Wind Sword Thousand Assault!”

Sword shadows blanketed from a hundred meters away, overwhelming the sky!

Valentine let a smile of sure victory play on his lips, planning to rush in with a slashing attack as soon as the engine’s kinetic power recovered.

Everyone was anticipating the scene when the black mech with one arm would be bombarded by the myriad slashes of sword shadows next second.

However, Mu Fan was destined to disappoint them.

His right arm jerked sharply towards the rear diagonal.

“Double engine data correction complete, forcibly unlocking!”

“Integrated right engine synchronous upward shift!”

“Integrated left engine trajectory ready, synchronously ejected!”

“Mu Fan… go berserk!”

Black’s voice echoed inside the cockpit.

Then, everyone clearly saw the circular white halo flame nozzle behind the mech shift upward, and then, where it originally was, another nozzle appeared, fiercely spewing bright white light!

Two huge jet tails of fire appeared instantly behind the black mech’s body.

“Holy shit!! Hidden dual engines!”

“I’m sunstruck… Unleashing the big move now?”

“Is this our mech?” Yu Wenhai asked Levi blankly, the latter’s face also filled with bewilderment.

The Extreme Special Soldier prototype leaned forward, its tail fire exploding from a mere half meter to two meters in less than 0.1 seconds—Boom!

The plasma light blade of the laser sword extinguished; the hilt retracted into the wrist weapon slot.

The black mech surged forward instantly!

Mu Fan’s veins popped out all over his body, the imperfect dual-engine design causing the cabin’s filtration effect to suddenly deteriorate.

But Mu Fan’s face remained as calm as ancient well water, his ten fingers blurring into afterimages over the control panel.

His APM soared from a stuttering instant to an astonishing 415!

Chaotic Zigzag Step!

People then saw the Extreme Special Soldier prototype, with only one arm, suddenly burst out at an angle and then instantly change direction, changing direction again within ten meters.

The furious charging speed was twice as fast as when it dodged in the first match!

The sweeping shadows of the sword slashes all missed, the black mech weaving through the purple beams like an undead shadow.

In the rugged-style cockpit, Mu Fan was pressed onto his seat by the sheer velocity.

Yet, his eyes remained bright and clear, as he muttered to himself, “Since its hidden meaning is called Undead, then the first move after unlocking should be named by me!”

“The sensation of racing against death is truly nostalgic, so the name of this move will be… Undead Charge!”

Dark Breath at level four!

APM shot up again—470!!
