Chapter 26: Mars Spider

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately sparked an argument in the live stream, whether among the fans of Zhuang Zhou or Huonan.

Dark Harvester is no nobody; although an anonymous ID, he is very famous in ROM. This person is a junior at the Mars Mengge Special A-level Military Academy. This military academy is very distinctive, as they specialize in various special terrains, such as the large number of cave landscapes that exist on Mars.

This is a unique Martian landscape. It can be said that those who are not familiar with the environment simply cannot display their strength. Dark Harvester specializes in this type of combat environment. If it were an all-range battle, he might be a B-Grade competitor, but in the Huoxing Dongku, he is absolutely S-Grade. Even many Martian players with a rating of 2000 are unwilling to fight him in that kind of environment.

Which is commonly known as a regional Warrior.

Huonan's live stream was filled with cheers, saying it was well said, wonderfully said, and let's see if this Puppet has any guts.

The live stream on Zhuang Zhou's side, however, began to erupt with all sorts of slang. It is a consensus that Martians are "shameless," and their thought processes are also quite special. As challengers, they have no right to choose the battlefield, yet they actually managed to frame it as their own right.

Huonan watched his live stream calmly as a group of USE underlings talked big about fairness and justice, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Player Dark DJ is a person of true character. Perhaps some viewers don't know, but he is a regional Warrior who specializes in the Huoxing Dongku landscape. His daily training and study are in this kind of combat environment, so it is only natural for him to make such a request. Otherwise, why pay to issue a challenge, right? What is EMP combat for? Victory?" Huonan laughed, then shook his head, "Of course not. That is just vanity. It is about gaining improvement through combat. The effort in training is to shed less blood on the battlefield, and the main substance of this battle lies in the choice of the battlefield, so the audience should understand. Of course, it doesn't matter if they don't."

It must be said that Huonan's supporters are still quite firm. They completely support this argument; it is only natural, since if one is to fight, one must surely exert 100% to make it meaningful.

Quite a few USE viewers were simply enraged by this high-sounding set of arguments. Who the hell practices in this kind of small environment???

Martian academies might be fine, as they involve it to some extent, but if Puppet comes from the USE, he might have never even entered such a combat environment.

How to fight?

But this process did not last long, because Puppet had already made a choice.

Combat environment: Huoxing Dongxue landscape.

Mecha: Armor Dragon Third Generation.

At this moment, Zhuang Zhou was still brewing on how to strike back at the Martians, but Puppet had already made his choice.

Zhuang Zhou was stunned for more than ten seconds, "The Huoxing Dongku terrain is very rugged and dim, and the temperature is also on the high side. I don't know if Puppet God has had any training. This is not the problem; experts have very strong adaptability to the environment, but... if I remember correctly, the night vision system of the Armor Dragon Fighter is a standard type, and it will be greatly restricted in an environment like the Huoxing Dongku..."

And the moment Puppet made his choice, his opponent, Dark DJ, also immediately chose his mecha, absolutely not giving his opponent a chance to go back on it, even if he chose wrong, he would have to accept his fate.

Fire Spider mecha!

A special mecha of the ROM Federation, this design is specifically targeted at various dark and cave environments. It belongs to the best of beast-type mechas, a masterpiece by Mars' most famous mecha design master, Long Mo. It is a Mimicry mecha modeled after a cave spider, eight-legged, with elastic claws, capable of walking on flat ground in rugged darkness, moving at high speed. Not only that, the entire movement method is also different from Regular Mode; it is difficult to master, but once mastered, it can be called a great killing weapon in caves.

And Dark DJ is precisely one of the top five Fire Spider users in EMP.

"Did Puppet God click the wrong thing? How is this supposed to be fought? The opponent is too shameless!"

"Even if he wins this, there's nothing to talk about."

"Restart, restart!"

"Support a restart!"

The hall of Tianjing EMP was also filled with excitement, all shouting for a restart. Any military academy student with a bit of common sense knows that this is not a competition, it is being abused. In an unfamiliar environment, facing suppression by mecha type, this is simply impossible to fight. Disarming and surrendering is the end of it; if one tries to struggle, one will only be played around by the other party.

A Youyou did not understand why everyone was so excited. In the same environment, both chose their favorite mecha. Perhaps the environment was slightly unfamiliar, but could the difference be so great?

But the moment she entered the battlefield, A Youyou understood.

There is no light in the Huoxing Dongku; the dim light inside comes from Martian thermal minerals, and this kind of mineral will cause serious interference to the backward infrared night vision system of the Armor Dragon Third Generation.

It can be said that here, the Armor Dragon Third Generation is equivalent to a blind person.

Luo Bi and the others, who were already prepared to go train, stopped in their tracks. Luo Bi couldn't help but rub his forehead. This... he had never doubted his second brother's skills, but the Armor Dragon Third Generation... this is too desperate.

Because he had trained with the Armor Dragon Third Generation in dark caves; let alone fighting, the moment the speed increased, he would bump into walls everywhere and could kill himself. The auxiliary system of the Armor Dragon Third Generation appears exceptionally backward in this kind of environment. If the night vision system is used, the moving objects seen are all blurred.

And the Fire Spider on the opposite side belongs to the Light Type fighter overall, with slender, multi-jointed legs that can move laterally and shift in complex terrain.

Armor Dragon Third Generation VS Fire Spider

Fire Spider ROM

Configuration: Light Type mecha, 65-ton class, eight-legged, red-eye night vision system

Nuclear fusion drive, 360-degree spiral laser cannon on the head, four short and four long eight legs, of which the four long legs are for supporting and moving the main body, and the four short legs assist in movement and attack, with Titanium Blade at the tips.

"Dear viewers, the match is about to begin. Please notify your friends around you. Someone is arrogant and ignorant, not knowing that the Armor Dragon Third Generation is just a blind man in the Huoxing Dongku. Opportunity knocks but once; this time next year will be Puppet's death anniversary. Today, Dark DJ is going to stage a show of beating a blind man!"

Luo Bi and the team members looked at each other in dismay. Anyone with normal thinking would not make such a choice. Let alone the Armor Dragon 3, even the Dragon God is very disgusting in this kind of environment, so in the Mecha Tournament, this can only be considered a single-event competition. It is mainly too dependent on proficiency. Unless there is a defense need, who would specifically practice in this kind of place.

Other things aside, the Armor Dragon Third Generation really has no way.

Everyone held their breath and waited. Will there be a miracle?

Two Mobile Suits entered the Huoxing Dongku; dim, high temperature, high humidity, flickering fire crystal minerals, everything made one extremely uncomfortable.

The Armor Dragon Fighter moved a few steps, clearly losing the super stability it had in the Arena. Here, it was not only rugged and uneven, but there were also various dangerous stalactite-shaped fire crystals.

At this time, the first-person perspective of the Armor Dragon Third Generation and the Fire Spider appeared in the field of view of the VIP audience.

Instantly, everyone gasped. In the Fire Spider's field of view, the dim environment was clearly layered, and the Armor Dragon was very distinct, while in the Armor Dragon's field of view, everything in the cave was blurry, and the flickering red light was also dazzling.

An atmosphere of despair was spreading.

*Zeng... *

The Fire Spider made its move. Clearly, in this environment that could not be more familiar, the Fire Spider walked on flat ground, its eight legs moving quickly and nimbly in the rugged and complex environment, instantly approaching the Armor Dragon Fighter, *Zeng... *

The moment it got close, two of the short legs swung up, killing toward the Armor Dragon Fighter like a Sickle Giant Insect. This time, the Armor Dragon Fighter did not make a brilliant evasion like before. Although it wanted to pull away, it was half a beat slow and was hit.

And the Fire Spider, having succeeded in one strike, quickly bounced away. Dark DJ also broke out in a cold sweat; he did not expect the opponent to be able to fight back in such a situation. While dodging, the Armor Dragon's Titanium Blade struck out, but it failed to hit.

In this environment, the Fire Spider is too flexible. Dark DJ was, of course, prepared; he had watched all of Puppet's previous battles. This person possesses very strong close-combat techniques, but his arrogance also knew no bounds.

Still need to be cautious.

*Ta ta ta ta ta ta... *

The Fire Spider moved in a circle in the cave, not in a hurry to launch an attack, while the Armor Dragon Fighter had already stopped moving. Clearly, at this time, using stillness to control movement was the only choice.

*Ta ta ta ta ta ta... *

The circling Fire Spider suddenly launched an attack from the side, its two short legs suddenly swinging out. One must know that even for short legs, its longest attack distance is still longer than the Titanium Blade. If the Armor Dragon wants to fight back, it must move precisely to enter the attack range, provided it catches the opponent's movement; otherwise, it can only be passively beaten.

*Dang dang dang dang... *

The Titanium Blade and the sharp claws made a few crisp clashing sounds. The Fire Spider slid away at once and did not linger in the fight. Once contact was broken, the Armor Dragon became a blind man again.

"Puppet must pay the price for his arrogance. It can be seen that he is using sound and blurred vision to judge the position. Of course, there is also some experience in it, but Dark DJ will not let him succeed. This is a dark hunt!" Huonan recovered his confident smile, looking down from a high position, his calmness permeated with a sense of satisfaction.

This is the attitude of the great Mars.

The Dark DJ on the battlefield kept circling and moving to launch attacks, never lingering after each strike, yet it had already achieved quite excellent results; the right arm of the Armor Dragon Fighter had been hacked to ruin during an unfavorable struggle, sparks flying everywhere, and the Armor Dragon Fighter could only rely on its left hand to control its blade, while up to this point, the Puppet, which had always been unstoppable, hadn't even managed to touch its opponent once.

Zhuang Zhou's livestream room had fallen into complete Silence, and the EMP Hall of Tianjing Martial Arts was also deathly quiet; some people had already left, some to train, others to spend their weekend, having originally thought the Puppet had undergone training in this area, or at least had some sort of plan, but looking at it now, it was truly too much Expansion.

Just an internet celebrity, who does he think he is?

An Armor Dragon fighting a Fire Spider? And in the Mars Dark Cave?

Even courting death shouldn't be done like this.
