Chapter 76: Stepping on the Shield to Fly into the Sky, Tyrant Spear!

~10 min read 1,888 words

Because of the current situation, relying on defense won't hold; the Armor Tiger's shield is already somewhat tattered, and if this continues, it will definitely collapse at some point.

"For Puppet, he can only wait for Salasi to make a movement error, or for his stamina to drop and his movements to slow down. But even so, he only has one chance for a Flash Strike. Even if he hits, it would be mutual destruction. Of course, theoretically, this result only has a one-in-ten-thousand chance." Huonan's complexion gradually became rosy because his assistant told him that his paying fans were growing linearly and his satisfaction rating was also rising. As long as Puppet GG'd, there would definitely be bosses tipping him.

Thinking about how his little sweetheart would return to his embrace, Huonan's complexion became even rosier. Yes, the nightmare would eventually end, and the man from Mars would surely rise!

"Only the possibility of a Flash Strike Tyrant Spear attack or even a throw remains," Feynman said with full concentration.

Alzi was speechless; they had all been dragged over by Feynman, and he had to watch the holographic feed to boot. Watching it was one thing, but it just had to be this kind of match.

"You know, Puppet knows, and Salasi knows too. He started off with a wild barrage to make Puppet think his long-range attacks were average, then suddenly launched a wave to take out the key Laser Gun. You can see his shrewdness; how would he give an opening now?"

"His strength lies in his creativity. Many of his attacks are things others wouldn't necessarily be able to dodge even if they thought of them." Feynman shook his head slightly; he wanted to see what this Flash Strike would be like.

"Feynman, wake up. Salasi knows the limit of the Armor Tiger's extreme Flash Strike Tyrant Spear distance. A throw... honestly, if he gets hit by that, Salasi really doesn't deserve his rank." Alzi firmly didn't believe it. Earlier, everyone fighting Puppet wasn't taking it too seriously, nor were they very concerned. Combat has a rhythm; it's hard to suddenly tighten up after starting loose, but the current opponent couldn't possibly still be careless. One slip-up and he'd become a background prop.

On the battlefield, the Armor Tiger's shield was visibly deforming. If it continued, it could be destroyed at any moment. This narrow terrain left little room for the Armor Tiger to dodge, relying almost entirely on the shield's defense. Salasi's attacks were also quite precise, hitting almost entirely in one area of the shield to achieve his goal in the shortest time possible.

Puppet's back-and-forth movement speed began to increase; he couldn't hold back anymore. The more impatient Puppet became, the steadier the opposing Shadow Warrior was. It had to be said, after the battle had gone on for so long, Salasi's operation showed no signs of weakening at all.

"We Martians have a saying: you can question the Ghost Martial Sect's talent or technique, but you never have to worry about their physical stamina. That is the entry-level foundation." At this moment, Huonan had regained his aura; even he could see Puppet's anxiety.

At the corner of the traverse, a round of shooting was completed, and the Shadow Warrior changed positions again. At this moment, the Armor Tiger lunged and jumped.

"The Armor Tiger finally dares to leave the corridor. This is a desperate strike! The Shadow Warrior opens up the distance, laser counterattack, the Armor Tiger is forced to defend. Fortunately, he steadied himself. The Shadow Warrior instantly pulls away, while the Armor Tiger makes a lunge; he's going for broke... The Armor Tiger threw his nearly broken shield. Is he crazy? The Armor Tiger lunges, the Shadow Warrior had long since predicted it, gave up attacking, and moved quickly. The Shadow Warrior is going to return to the corridor—a wise decision. The Armor Tiger stepped on his shield, the Tyrant Spear is out..."

Boom...

Huonan's commentary came to an abrupt halt. The Shadow Warrior was struck down directly by the Tyrant Spear, but the Armor Tiger also fell toward the magma at the same time.

Hum~~~

The Overlord Fighter falling in mid-air suddenly performed a reverse-waist hard pull, a "returning horse spear."

Bang~~~

The titanium spear was firmly inserted into the stone pillar. The massive Overlord Fighter pulled with one hand and nimbly stood on the titanium spear, which was only equivalent to a thin, narrow horizontal bar.

Zing...

With a light spring, the Overlord Fighter nimbly returned to the top of the stone pillar. Without stopping, the massive Overlord Fighter, like a nimble bird, tapped lightly on the stone pillar and returned to the corridor with a few consecutive jumps.

The sound of the Shadow Warrior struggling as he fell into the magma reached their ears.

Puppet wins.

The Huoyun Military Academy, which had just been boiling over and cheering loudly for Salasi, was now deathly silent. It was so quiet that only heavy breathing remained, which they were trying hard to suppress.

And in the livestream room, Huonan's complexion turned as pale as it had been when the two Space Fortresses appeared, perhaps even whiter and more delicate. His right hand seemed to be pressing hard on his left, and his hands were shaking.

The kill replay was shown:

The Armor Tiger, which had never dared to step onto the stone pillars, finally attacked. Salasi's judgment was correct; he could just return to the corridor. Once this position was lost, the Armor Tiger would be completely finished. Of course, he was fully focused on guarding against the Armor Tiger's final desperate pursuit, so he jumped across two stone pillars to open up a distance of more than ten meters. The Armor Tiger absolutely couldn't catch up.

However, the Armor Tiger didn't pursue along Salasi's movement route. Instead, it threw the shield directly across the stone pillar. At the same time, the Armor Tiger let out a muffled roar and performed a Flash Strike. The movement slowed down, but the swift lunge gave people a feeling of lightness at this moment. It arrived later but reached first, stepping heavily on the shield to borrow force for a second-stage lunge. The Tyrant Spear had already struck out, and the Shadow Warrior, whose judgment was completely wrong, was hit by the extreme range of the Tyrant Spear in mid-air and fell off the stone pillar.

——Stepping on the Shield to Fly into the Sky, Tyrant Spear!

Salasi was knocked down, but the Armor Tiger was also unable to land on the stone pillar. Both mechas fell at the same time. Salasi didn't give up; the moment he was knocked down, he aimed his laser at the Armor Tiger and fired a burst.

But the falling Armor Tiger fighter showed no panic at all. The mecha paused, the engine roared, and it forcefully provided a fraction of a second of suspension. The mecha leaned back to dodge the laser, the titanium spear sharply pierced the stone pillar, and then with a one-handed pull, the massive Armor Tiger fighter was on the titanium spear, and then nimbly jumped up...

Looking at this nimble pace, especially the few steps of jumping on the stone pillars, it felt as if one wasn't seeing a clumsy Armor Tiger, but a Light Type mecha.

…………

Salasi was kicked out.

The Huoyun Military Academy was still deathly silent. An inexplicable pressure loomed over everyone's hearts. This was simply a monster...

And in the Tianjing Mecha Martial EMP Hall, it was boisterous; it was another carnival. Such scenes were playing out in many USE military academies.

"Too terrifying," Feynman said softly. If there was still some unwillingness to accept defeat at the beginning, by today, he felt the other party hadn't used their full strength at all.

Alzi was also speechless. It was indeed full of imagination. Everyone thought he intended to use the shield to interfere with Salasi, but he didn't expect it to be used as a footstool. And Salasi completely misjudged it. In fact, that spear didn't have much force, but it only needed to hinder Salasi. Of course, Alzi didn't deny the opponent's operation.

"The on-the-spot adaptability is indeed imaginative," Alzi laughed.

Dita's face, however, showed no trace of relaxation. She glanced at Feynman, and Feynman was even more silent.

"What's wrong with you two? Why so serious? His operation is good, but everyone has their own specialty..."

"Alzi, you don't understand," Feynman said softly.

Bang~~~

Alzi directly patted Feynman's shoulder heavily. "Damn it, what's the matter? It's just watching a match, why is the atmosphere so oppressive? I know he's very strong, but what's with these expressions?"

Dita took a deep breath. "This might be the most terrifying opponent we've ever encountered. If he participates in the S11, he will be a major threat to our NUP. His personal strength is the most terrifying level I have ever seen. This battle wasn't about imagination or anything; he didn't use his full strength at all."

Alzi was stunned. "?"

"Did you see the final operation? This kind of lightness is the ultimate for a Heavy Armor mecha. Lifting the heavy as if it were light. Wanting to use a Heavy Armor like this shows that the pilot himself possesses terrifying core strength. This is a terrifying Warrior who has tempered his entire body to the extreme. From the very beginning, he could have stepped on the pillars; this terrain didn't pose any difficulty for him at all. He just wanted to see the opponent's level," Dita said softly.

"The center of gravity of a Heavy Armor is the most stable, but it's also dangerous in this kind of terrain. And to be able to use the Armor Tiger to this extent, it's impossible to imagine what this person's body is like. And that spear that knocked down Salasi—he didn't use his full strength at all. Knocking down Salasi and inserting the titanium spear into the stone pillar were all calculated. Look at that spear that pierced the stone pillar; it was sharp, fast, full of force, and methodical. This person has a kind of condescending dominance in controlling the situation," Feynman said.

Alzi certainly knew that Dita and Feynman weren't people who spoke nonsense, but what they said was too exaggerated.

"Doesn't he have any weaknesses?"

"Perhaps, long-range attacks might be a potential weakness. Generally, people who train their bodies to this extent have poorer long-range control. This is also a flaw of the USE Ancient Martial Arts Families."

Huonan covered his forehead, feeling a bit dizzy. It might have been too late, and he needed to rest. Huonan, who stood up to leave, was stopped by Zhuang Zhou.

Zhuang Zhou didn't speak, but his eyes said everything.

Huonan smiled awkwardly, his hands started shaking again, and he bit his teeth tightly. He knew so many people were watching.

Ten spaceships took off, and each one took his soul along with it as it ascended...

"Little Zhuang, I'm feeling a bit unwell. You continue alone for the rest; this is also a good opportunity to exercise your commentary skills."

Then, without waiting for Zhuang Zhou to speak, he hurriedly went offline. If a few more matches like this came, his heart would explode.
