Chapter 197
The slightly dull spectator area suddenly ignited; the moment this Armor Leopard was revealed, the feeling immediately returned. Ever since the Puppet's Armor Leopard killed Dita in seconds, the Armor Leopard has become incredibly popular, surpassing all kinds of Super Mecha to rank first.
This is a regular mecha that possesses the functions of a Super Mecha, with an extremely high operational ceiling. It is a symbol of showing off one's skills and is even called the Puppet's strongest trump card. Basically, if the Armor Leopard is allowed to fully exert itself, it can be called the ceiling of attack power.
It's just that in formal high-level challenge matches, no one really dares to use it. Dilacenzo is very bold, and he has indeed been using the Armor Leopard a lot recently. Facing the Centaur King, the several types of Light Type mecha he regularly uses are all countered; perhaps he could fight to a stalemate, but he doesn't have the certainty of victory. Yet, he has recently gained a lot of insight into using the Armor Leopard, and tactically, it disrupts the opponent's arrangements. Pading must be very panicked right now. This mecha is very difficult to use; likewise, the opponent will have fewer means to deal with it. Such matches require courage.
"Dilacenzo and Pading have similar roles in their teams; both are used to unleash big moves in key one-on-one duels. Especially Pading, whose mecha pool is very shallow, relying solely on the Centaur King. Once he loses the Centaur King, his overall level drops significantly, so he can still be targeted," Greg said.
"The problem is that as long as there are no extreme restrictions, his Centaur King K-hell is top-tier in one-on-one duels. It can fight Giant God Soldiers above and destroy Light Types below. One trick wins everything; targeting him is only theoretical," Alzi laughed. The arrogance of Earthlings is truly full. Everyone knows the tactics, but the problem is, can you actually do it?
"This choice of Armor Leopard is good; Pading probably wasn't prepared for this," Mier Sannan said.
Everyone expressed their opinions, still very appreciative of this Armor Leopard. Of course, Tianxing was still a bit awkward; after all, the Team Leader had just been wiped out by an Armor Leopard, and this had almost become a scar for Tianxing. Dita, however, was very calm; she was still pondering that operation of Li Hao's.
Judging from the current mecha suppression, the Armor Leopard really does have a certain suppression effect on the Centaur King, and Dilacenzo wouldn't bring it out without a reason.
In fact, the most attention is on the GRU Military Academy and the Fire God Academy. Neither wants to lose, and both are outstanding figures in their respective academies, with many supporters.
Dilacenzo's Armor Leopard still strikes first to gain the upper hand. In the USE, there isn't only one Puppet.
Both sides enter the combat scenario, randomized to—Kepler Jungle.
In the arena, the two Mobile Suits have already engaged in fire, lasers roaring. In terms of firepower, the Centaur King is more ferocious, but in this environment, coupled with the flexibility of the Armor Leopard, there isn't much suppression. It must be said that the Armor Leopard's unique sliding rapid movement is truly flexible. Soon, Dilacenzo spotted an opportunity, and the Cross Wheel was launched.
He is not the Puppet and doesn't have the ability to accelerate in place. In fact, after the Puppet used it, he tried many times, all ending in self-destruction; that kind of high-speed wheel finishes you the moment it touches anything.
The Cross Wheel was launched, but it didn't possess absolute lethality at the beginning. The Armor Leopard dodged while harassing with the Cross Wheel. Pading also knew the opponent's plan; after the opponent started using the Cross Wheel, the Centaur mecha began to constantly close the distance. What the Centaur King needs to do is to finish off the opponent before the Cross Wheel enters the Super God Strike state.
The two Cross Wheels were dodged by crossing, the Centaur King's engine roared, and it leaped up, chasing the Armor Leopard with a *da-da-da-da* sound. No matter the environment, the Armor Leopard cannot outrun the Centaur King. In just a short while, the distance between the two was closed.
Laser Eyes strafed, the Armor Leopard's lasers fought back, both sides dodged each other, each performing various dodging maneuvers, and they still met.
Boom...
Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang...
The Tianhuo Changmao stabbed with explosive points, flashes filling the sky. Dilacenzo's dodging was exceptionally steady; the Armor Leopard was controlled with great precision in his hands, dodging all attacks and even attempting to counterattack. But the Centaur King is not afraid of close combat. Facing the Armor Leopard's charge, it pulled the spear, performed a two-stage horizontal strike, held off the Titanium Blade, and kicked fiercely with both feet.
—Ghost Slaps the Gate.
The Armor Leopard retreated, and the landed Centaur King stomped suddenly, the ground booming, and the Tianhuo Changmao struck out like lightning, pointing directly at the Armor Leopard's landing spot.
Bang...
In his haste, Dilacenzo's Titanium Blade was directly knocked away. The Centaur King followed with a horizontal pull and a spear-swinging sweep; the Armor Leopard only managed to pull away by forcibly flying backward.
Dilacenzo's face was flushed red; the Armor Leopard's performance was suppressed.
The combat room was also quiet for a moment. "The Armor Leopard's ceiling is very high, but it
is essentially still a regular mecha. The consumption of operations and the performance of the mecha itself are not enough."
Aofei said indifferently, "Not everyone can use it."
Luo Bi smiled, "Still a bit too inflated."
If the opponent were weak, using the Armor Leopard could work, but facing the Centaur King, the opponent might have been stronger to begin with. Choosing the Armor Leopard at this time to go head-to-head, how could he possibly win?
Pading's voice came through the audio, "You dare to challenge me with just these two moves? Who gave you the guts? Kill~~~~"
The Centaur King launched a charge like a thousand armies, and the two Cross Wheels were twisted over. Pading tilted his head, his body suddenly lowered, his 360° vision fully controlled. A "lying horse" move directly dodged the two Cross Wheels circling back from behind. The next second, he roared and sprang up, the K23 Tianhuo Changmao stabbing toward the Armor Leopard. Having lost its Titanium Blade, the Armor Leopard could only run, wanting to use the terrain to open up distance.
He completely misjudged the strength of both sides, losing the initiative after just one confrontation. The most critical thing is that the Light Type Armor Leopard was completely crushed in performance when facing the Medium-sized Super Mecha. How to put it, the Armor Leopard's flexibility, in front of the Centaur King which is grand and open yet possesses special mobility, is just like a rabbit.
You can hop around, but sooner or later you'll still be food.
Boom...
Dilacenzo finally dodged the attack, the operating system guiding the Cross Wheels to circle and entangle. It was precisely because of the fear of the Cross Wheels that the Centaur King had to avoid them; this thing would definitely cause trouble if it grazed him.
The Cross Wheels returned, but Dilacenzo didn't release them immediately, instead maintaining the rotation speed and constantly charging them. However, as the rotation speed increased, the Cross Wheels also began to become unstable.
Dilacenzo took the initiative to attack; his Cross Wheels still needed one collision, but at this moment, the Centaur King suddenly ran away.
Dilacenzo was stunned, and the audience was stunned too. Clearly occupying an absolute advantage, why do this?
But the Tianjing team on the scene who saw this scene, Luo Bi and the others, all knew that Dilacenzo was finished.
From the beginning of the battle, the Centaur King avoided head-on collisions with the Cross Wheels. The Armor Leopard must be said to be Master Jiabo's masterpiece; collisions make the Cross Wheels even crazier. It's unclear what the principle is, but it is indeed the case. Entering the Super God Strike requires collisions.
However, the Centaur King just wouldn't collide, or it would be like the Puppet—

Entering the Super God Strike requires collisions.
However, the Centaur King just wouldn't collide, or it would be like the Puppet, self-colliding, but except for the Puppet, no one can do that!
Dilacenzo... panicked. He had prepared a lot, and he had used the Centaur King many times because the Tianhuo Changmao can fully withstand the Cross Wheels, but... he didn't expect Pading not to take the bait at all.
The Cross Wheels flew out again, but colliding with the giant trees of Kepler only slowed them down. The Cross Wheels need
the opponent's counterattack, not a stationary target.
The Centaur King dodged, suddenly turned direction, and charged toward the Armor Leopard. The Armor Leopard immediately moved to open up distance; at this time, one cannot be impulsive, one must run when it's time to run.
This is not an arena; both sides have room to maneuver, searching for opportunities favorable to themselves. Even if they don't reach the Super God Strike, as long as they catch the Cross Wheels, they won't fear the opponent.
Dilacenzo did indeed have a trick, using his signature matrix return step. Chasing in a straight line, the Centaur is invincible, but constantly changing lines and repeating is a bit troublesome for four legs.
Finally, he dragged it out until the Cross Wheels were in hand, but the Centaur King behind him had already killed its way over.
Boom...
Chapter 194: Whipping
Flash Strike, the Centaur King soared into the sky, the spear killing toward the Armor Leopard; Dilacenzo did not dodge or evade, throwing out the Cross Wheel—in this space, at this position, Pading could not dodge!
In this instant, in Dilacenzo's mind, the short-range high-frequency Cross Wheel of the Puppet, even if it didn't reach Super God Strike, could still crush the Centaur King.
Boom...
The Centaur King's Tianhuo Changmao suddenly swept with red light, and following two explosive sounds, the Cross Wheel was directly deflected; it did not obey the summons of the Axis Drive system to return to the Armor Leopard's hand, but instead carved different trajectories, stabbing into the ground, spinning for a moment, and coming to an abrupt halt.
... The Cross Wheel was broken?!
At this moment, the red-glowing Tianhuo Changmao had already descended upon his head.
Dilacenzo did not dodge; he knew it was over.
But the opponent did not attack immediately; when Dilacenzo opened his eyes, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of Pading's mouth, and the Tianhuo Changmao in his hand went, slap... slap... slap...
Circling and whipping the Armor Leopard, making Dilacenzo spin in place, the Mecha shaking violently.
???? ??
Whipping a slave?!
This is a traditional method for Martians to insult opponents, which has already been banned by the EMP, yet Pading was actually using it again during a live broadcast?
Dilacenzo was also enraged; damn it, he had already conceded, this dog-like Martian.
The engine roared, and with a Flash Strike, he ignored everything and rammed directly into the Centaur King; the Centaur King simultaneously followed with a Flash Strike, calmly sidestepping the furious Armor Leopard, the Tianhuo Changmao piercing through the Armor Leopard from behind, and with a burst of strength from both hands, he directly hoisted the Armor Leopard up, skewering it on the spearhead like prey...
The entire live broadcast chat room exploded completely; one part was cursing Pading, the other part was cheering in satisfaction.
"Hooves trampling Earth and Moon, spear slaughtering the Galaxy, this is the Single-Combat King from Mars—Pading Sawei, victory!"
Huonan roared loudly, not caring at all about the cursing in the chat.
"Has this Pading never won before? He has no class at all," Zhuang Zhou protested angrily, "The officials must punish this kind of behavior!"
"Oh my, little Zhuang, I don't think he did it on purpose; he must have been too excited and forgotten, don't be a sore loser, you Earthlings are just too fragile," Huonan said with a face full of smiles.
Zhuang Zhou looked at Huonan, "This was clearly intentional; if you're blind, go get it treated quickly. You had better pray he is invincible, and remember these words when you're crying."
Huonan shrugged indifferently, the corner of his mouth curling, "Adults shed blood, not tears."
Pading wins.
But the system gave Pading a warning penalty and simultaneously deducted 200 EMP points; if such behavior continues within one month, the punishment will double.
Of course, Pading didn't care at all, "Puppet, you long-lived species, did you see that? The next one is you!"
Then he made a throat-slitting gesture toward everyone.
