Chapter 17: One Strike Breaks the Firmament (Third Update)

~8 min read 1,596 words

Two Mobile Suits entered the Martian landscape. Mars' gravity is a little less than half of Earth's; after planetary terraforming technology, Mars is currently about eighty percent of Earth's gravity. It seems easy, but in reality, Mobile Suit pilots would rather go to a battlefield with slightly higher gravity, as it is more convenient to operate. While slightly lower gravity reduces physical load, it increases the difficulty of the operation itself, which requires the body to adapt to reverse thinking.

And for a Heavy Armor mecha, this state requires even more sufficient proficiency.

Puppet... is he there?

Once this choice was made, the onlookers were truly panicked involuntarily. As supporters of Puppet, their heart endurance must be good, because those like Zhuang Zhou know that Puppet only played Virtual Mode before, and it was only recently that he started playing Real Mode. This should be the first time encountering a Martian landscape in Real Mode.

Even if Puppet usually has training in this area, this should be his first time in actual combat.

He actually dared to choose an Armor Tiger to fight?

Theoretically speaking, a Light Type mecha would be better.

Stein was speechless, "I don't know whose alt account you are. If I don't beat you so hard your own mother wouldn't recognize you today, I, Stein, will quit EMP streaming!"

Stein was also truly enraged and directly revealed his famous name; he had to win this round to save face.

The Armor Tiger mecha opposite still did not respond, the Tyrant Spear in its hand ejected, still that same cool assembly mode.

Stein took a deep breath and focused his energy. This is the traffic code; the bragging was done first, and now it was time to cash in.

The Sky Wolf V6 can exert its maximum effect in familiar terrain; it is like a fish in water.

*Zeng zeng*...

The shoulder lasers of the Sky Wolf mecha automatically set up, *da da da da da da*...

As the mecha darted out, the lasers roared, and it actually began to circle the Armor Tiger for long-range fire strikes.

Whether in the Mars chat room or the viewing area, there was a chorus of cursing. Where is his face?

It's already like this, and he's still using long-range strikes?

Clearly, under the slightly lower gravity, the Sky Wolf's agility was brought to the extreme, and Stein's operation was indeed good. The smooth, circling fire suppression against the bulky Armor Tiger might even create some openings.

Although it was a bit of an ungentlemanly victory, the Martian character is to look at the results, not the process.

The Armor Tiger mecha was not surprised; this was the correct choice. Li Hao drove the mecha and began to move in a small range, the tiger shield in his left hand already raised. Stein's seemingly agile circling strikes were easily defended by the Armor Tiger mecha.

Stein was very patient this time. He didn't intend to solve the problem with lasers, but it was enough to interfere with the opponent's rhythm and disturb his mind. The Sky Wolf V6 seemed determined to make the Armor Tiger uncomfortable, constantly jumping back and forth, lasers roaring. In such rugged terrain, combined with the stickiness of the Tuxing gravel, it would make the opponent uncomfortable.

And when this emotion accumulates to a certain degree, openings will appear.

Stein was like a patient wolf. Not long after, he noticed the Armor Tiger's turning movement slowed down. This was the opportunity he was waiting for.

The Sky Wolf mecha suddenly performed a forced-control stop, and the entire mecha drifted eerily. As the shoulder lasers blasted, the wolf head opened, *zeng zeng zeng*, three missiles roared out.

The Armor Tiger mecha could only defend, and the Sky Wolf, which had landed from the drift, performed a beautiful roll and rushed toward the Armor Tiger mecha from behind again.

This is the extreme of speed—Wolf Style: Life and Death Dilemma.

The winner is decided!

*Boom*...

The missiles hit the Armor Tiger, exploding into a sky full of fire. Under this change, the Armor Tiger's disadvantage of being bulky was infinitely magnified.

The system prompt sounded: Puppet wins!

?????????

The Martians went crazy. What the hell is this situation?

Winning with one's life? This simply doesn't exist!

Suddenly, with a *pa* sound, a wave of air dispersed the flames, and a huge figure walked out. The large shield was in the left hand, and on the Tyrant Spear in the right hand... it was skewered again.

???????

Let alone the Martians, even the Earthlings were a bit dumbfounded. Wolf Style: Life and Death Dilemma is Stein's famous signature move in the mecha tournament. Either don't let him complete it, but once it's completed, it's at least a life-for-a-life exchange.

The Armor Tiger mecha's long spear suddenly swung, throwing the broken Sky Wolf mecha away. *Zeng zeng*... *pa*, the long spear was retracted, and the mecha's head tilted slightly to take a look.

Then Stein was kicked out again.

At this time, the slow-motion analysis replay had already come out.

In a familiar environment, Stein chose the safest tactic, using his speed advantage to strike the opponent. Of course, lasers are not the Sky Wolf's advantage, but they have enough harassment value. If the long-range defense level is not high, the Armor Tiger would also capsize. It must be said that the Armor Tiger performed quite well, using the large shield's defense plus precise movement to basically block everything. Of course, Stein didn't count on this; he wanted an opening.

And the "opportunity" appeared on the screen. One shot was not defended and hit the Armor Tiger's leg, affecting the mecha's movement.

"It was intentional!" Feynman and Alzi said almost in unison.

And this one shot caused the hot blood Stein had been holding back while looking for an opportunity to rush to his head, and the next second he used his famous signature skill.

It was played perfectly. The mesh-like point fire formed by the shoulder lasers blocked the movement route, and the missiles fired from the wolf head forced the opponent to defend.

"The marksmanship is average, but it is very practical when combined with the characteristics of the Sky Wolf." As a top Sniper, although Alzi looked down on the opponent's roughness, he had to give respect.

Of course, the point was the landing tumble combined with the attack. Stein played this move quite smoothly, pouncing from the side-bottom, which is the hardest place for a Heavy Armor mecha to deal with.

How could this be defended?

There was not a single mistake; this was the perfect Wolf Style Attack.

Even at this moment, the Armor Tiger mecha did not make a response. Either run or choose a side, but the Armor Tiger chose neither.

The missiles and the Sky Wolf mecha's attack arrived almost at the same time. The playback speed slowed down.

In that instant, the Armor Tiger's large shield braced to take the missiles head-on, while the Tyrant Spear struck at the Sky Wolf.

A fatal blow.

He won.

He won?

But the barrage was instantly filled with cursing. It's fake, there must be a problem, how is it possible? To be able to make such a precise and powerful strike while facing a missile attack, this is simply not something a Human can do.

Subjectively, how can one concentrate when under the fatal threat of missiles?

Objectively, even if the shield defends, the impact is real. How could it still pierce the moving Sky Wolf V6? What about the impact force?

There is only one situation where this can be done, and that is Virtual Mode, that is just playing around. But this is fucking Real Mode!

The number of people in the live stream increased by another hundred thousand. Are the Earthlings cheating, secretly using Virtual Mode?

That's not right, this is a high-score match, that shouldn't exist.

Zhuang Zhou finally finished, and the moment the battle was decided, a string of question marks appeared in his mind.

Title: Rebirth of the Tiger King—Overlord Descends Upon the World

There was only one second of dynamic analysis, which was the final moment.

The Armor Tiger didn't just stand still; it arched its entire body and actively tilted to meet the missile, absorbing the impact of the missile hitting the shield, and the entire Heavy Armor Armor Tiger suddenly shot out like an arrow from a bow, the Armor Tiger Tyrant Spear in its right hand striking out; removing the noise of the explosion, what could be heard in the ears was the overclocked sound of breaking through the air, the Tyrant Spear seemed to have vanished, and by the time it was visible to the naked eye, the Sky Wolf fighter was already skewered.

A smile appeared at the corner of Zhuang Zhou's mouth; of course, this wasn't the end, the details—that is the true terrifying aspect of the Puppet master.

In a partial zoomed-in view, this strike was not merely as simple as breaking the armor; the tyrannical conducted vibration shattered the Sky Wolf Mecha the moment it pierced through the Sky Wolf V6.

This is why the Sky Wolf fighter everyone saw at the end was in ruins, while the Armor Tiger seemed to have not moved from its spot; the pilot had used terrifying control to take a portion of the force head-on and conduct the rest.

This is Heavy Armor!

Control the power, the spear strikes like a dragon, one blow to break the firmament!
