Chapter 129: Blee 132 (Twelfth Update)
"Huh? Ah! Team Leader, I'm your fan, please don't kill me, I was really just curious, I won't say anything, I won't tell anyone..." Zhuang Zhou was almost scared to the point of wetting himself. It was over; how could he let others know about such a huge secret?
Li Hao slowly extended his hand and snapped his fingers, then suddenly shook his head. "Alright, you can go. Remember not to stalk others next time!"
Zhuang Zhou flexed his wrists, then suddenly rushed over again, blocking Li Hao's path. "Team Leader, I'm Zhuang Zhou, a freshman in the Tianjing Mecha Journalism Department, an official EMP-signed streamer, specializing in broadcasting Puppet's matches. Are you really Puppet?"
Li Hao looked at Zhuang Zhou with a half-smile. "You're not afraid of dying anymore?"
Zhuang Zhou grinned. "Hehe, you are our Team Leader, our guardian deity, how could you bully your own cute junior? Regardless of whether you are Puppet or not, I am your most loyal fan. I've watched every single match you fought in the Xuni Qu..."
Then Zhuang Zhou listed several of Li Hao's classic scenes from the Xuni Qu in a row. Li Hao was actually stunned; there really were people this idle.
"I'm right, aren't I, Team Leader? Are you or are you not the Puppet God?" Zhuang Zhou couldn't control his emotions at all; he still wanted to hear Li Hao admit it himself.
Li Hao nodded silently, and then a scream rang out from the small woods, startling several wild birds.
Li Hao just watched as Zhuang Zhou spun around in place with excitement. "What is your ability?"
"My pupil resolution is different from normal people, and I have some inexplicable sixth sense. It's not easy to master, but my intuition is very sharp." Zhuang Zhou touched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Li Hao looked at Zhuang Zhou. "Since you know, I might as well tell you: I am indeed executing a secret mission concerning the revival of the USE. I don't want to kill you to silence you, so I have no choice but to let you participate. How about it? Any interest in being my subordinate?"
"Oh my god, Team Leader, can I? Really? I'm willing, I'm very willing, please give me your instructions!" Zhuang Zhou was trembling with excitement. Wow, a secret mission, this is huge.
"There's nothing for now, just stand by."
"Yes, Team Leader. Um, can we add each other on communication device? You know I'm an EMP streamer now, can we communicate a little sometimes? I promise not to bother you. It's mainly because sometimes Huonan keeps slandering you. You are the pride of us Earthlings in the EMP right now, many Earthlings are supporting you!" Zhuang Zhou's little heart was thumping wildly.
Li Hao glanced at Zhuang Zhou, whose eyes were filled with little stars. Li Hao couldn't really understand this feeling, but he still opened his communication device.
Zhuang Zhou excitedly scanned the code. "Puppet... Team Leader, from now on I am your man. If there's anything, just order me; I won't hesitate to go through fire and water. The brothers in my dorm are also your most loyal fans."
Li Hao shook his head slightly. "Just keep it to yourself."
In an instant, Zhuang Zhou's heart was filled with happiness. Yes, he was different.
"Understood, top secret, I won't say a word even if I'm beaten to death."
"Then let's go," Li Hao said.
"Go where?"
"I'm going to the EMP Building to train. Aren't you going to stream? Don't you want to come along?" Li Hao glanced at Zhuang Zhou.
In an instant, Zhuang Zhou was so excited he was about to take flight; this happiness came too suddenly.
"By the way, does streaming make money?" Li Hao suddenly asked.
"Make money??" Zhuang Zhou was stunned.
Blee 132: Zhuang Zhou, pupil ability + uncertain precognition user, one of the "Foundation" tasks, cannot be cleared.
Along the way, Li Hao also learned quite a bit about "Puppet" from Zhuang Zhou. He, the person involved, was actually the last to know. He really didn't care much about this, but Blee was truly interesting; it was indeed changing the USE's perception of the future development of mecha in an invisible way. Zhuang Zhou was currently quite useful in this link.
At the same time, Blee released information before Zhuang Zhou found him. This kind of thing had happened several times. This implied a lot of information; it wasn't predicting the future, but information coming from the future. Li Hao had a judgment in his heart, at least a high-probability possibility: Blee came from the future. If it were just predicting the future, it couldn't possibly possess the ability to control and shape dreams; this completely exceeded current technological levels, and Earthlings in the future had likely encountered something.
Such a huge game, damn it, it's a bit chilling.
Mars's Beast Armor, the Moon's Light Type, Titan's Giant God Soldier—only the USE was maintaining balance. Actually, he also agreed with balance. For special forces, the type of mecha didn't matter, but for regular configurations, a balanced approach was more suitable.
They arrived at the Tianjing Mecha EMP Building. It was brightly lit and bustling with noise. The great victory had also greatly stimulated the fighting spirit of all the Tianjing Mecha Warriors; the power of a role model was infinite.
Li Hao and Zhuang Zhou separated. Li Hao had a private training room, while Zhuang Zhou had to wait in line. But it didn't matter; he was a streamer and could log in via communication device. Zhuang Zhou also wanted to change his style and just stream directly in the EMP Hall.
Puppet is online.
In the Tianjing Mecha Hall, the students in the viewing area immediately became joyful. Because in the current overall cross-regional matches of the EMP, the Moon held a clear upper hand, followed by Mars. The Martian style of playing for their lives at every turn was indeed quite fierce and sharp. This kind of wildness and ruthlessness wasn't just being hot-headed; it was truly ruthless, which had a lot to do with their growth environment.
During the time Puppet disappeared, Zhuang Zhou disappeared, and the strangest thing was that Huonan also went missing. A certain top-tier Martian streamer was rumored to have gone bankrupt, along with various other rumors. Anyway, Huonan had written a big, capital "miserable" for himself.
In the stream, the audience was discussing whether Puppet, who had been missing for a while, could still perform at his previous level. It just felt like something was missing. Even the Earthling audience felt that although Huonan was annoying, without his chatter, it seemed like eating spicy crayfish without a plate of snails—even though it didn't fill your stomach, sucking on them was still very satisfying.
Zhuang Zhou went online. "Everyone, I've missed you all. The Puppet God is back!"
Zhuang Zhou was full of fighting spirit, his state of mind having undergone a earth-shaking change compared to before. The Puppet God of the past was a castle in the air, but now the Puppet God was their Team Leader, and he would definitely be the greatest Team Leader of the Tianjing Team. Although he wasn't clear on what was going on, just thinking about how someone Principal Long trusted so much couldn't be a small fry—this was the vision, this was the vision of Lord Long. Respect!
Zhuang Zhou chatted with everyone, also feeling that something was missing. In the past, Huonan always arrived before him. Although that guy's mouth was annoying, he was professional and dedicated. Especially since everyone really missed his red envelopes. Thinking of the rumors, sigh, why bother? Why insist on going against the Puppet God?
"Everyone, I don't know what Huonan's situation is right now. We belong to different factions. According to rumors, he might have had some financial problems..."
"Little Zhuang, why does what you're saying sound a bit off? I, a dignified top-tier Martian streamer, what kind of problems could I have!"
A loud noise erupted in the stream, and Huonan made a flashy entrance.
This flashiness was truly flashy: the big diamond ring, the big gold watch, the golden jacket—Zhuang Zhou remembered it was a certain luxury brand; anyway, one piece was enough for him to eat for two months.
"Huonan, did you strike it rich?" Zhuang Zhou blinked. This didn't seem to match the rumors.
"Hehe, strike it rich? I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but all I got in return was suspicion. I'm not pretending anymore; I'm laying my cards on the table: I am a super rich second generation from Mars." Huonan was in high spirits, his whole body radiating the surging aura of a nouveau riche.
The entire stream became lively, with flattery ringing out endlessly. Not just from Martians, but also including many Earthling viewers. Sigh, missing Huonan's generosity; there aren't many streamers with such a conscience left.
"Did you find your real dad?" Zhuang Zhou asked curiously.
The corners of Huonan's mouth twitched a few times. "Little Zhuang, your mouth is getting more and more naggy. Who did you learn that from?"
"You."
"Ahem, back to the main topic. I've recently undergone some professional training to better commentate for everyone. What's going on with Puppet? He disappeared for a long time, and the opponents behind are getting stronger and stronger. Don't tell me he's scared." Huonan regained his original momentum of pointing out the path of the world.
"Huonan, isn't it good to be alive?" Zhuang Zhou looked at the confident Huonan, feeling strange.
"Young man, you're a bit arrogant. Come, let's see if Puppet's luck will still be that good." Huonan wasn't angry at all; instead, he was full of anticipation. Damn it, he had a boss now; he was already in an invincible position. I'll finish you all off.
Puppet entered the group queue. Most people hoped to see Puppet's Armor Leopard. Recently, more and more people were using the Armor Leopard, especially on the NUP side. More and more experts were able to master the Cross Wheel. Many times, it was just a matter of mindset. Once the mindset was found, the thing this world lacked the least was geniuses.
Puppet's opponent appeared.
Wolf Martial A-Class Star War Academy: Costa.
Wolf Martial A-Class Star War Academy, one of the ROM's ten major military academies, supported and built by the Wolf Martial Sect, pursuing individual wolf-like nature and team wolf-like nature.
"Costa, S Tournament player, guerrilla position, versatile, good at targeting the opponent's soft spots. He is also in the top ten of the ROM in the guerrilla position. This battle will definitely give a powerful response from our Mars!" Huonan laughed. "Fire overcomes Wood. I believe my existence will also bring a Flame Buff. Puppet will definitely lose!"
Huonan cheered, ignoring the mockery in the barrage, his face wearing a confident smile. With a backer, taking down Puppet was just a matter of minutes!
