Chapter 102 Star Region Tournament Second Round (11)
“Ohh ...
The plush rabbit seemed to have transcended species and let out a cry like Tarzan the Ape Man.
"Is this the lightsaber form of the Crimson Warrior's main gun?! I've never seen this before! I've never seen Minister Gao use this main gun form in any document!"
Gao Siqi smiled and murmured, "Great, young couple! Not many people have seen this trick—"
Most of the combat data left by the Crimson Warriors comes from the War of Dawn.
On such a chaotic battlefield, such a lightsaber is far less useful than a flash cannon.
Most of the opponents who fought against Gao Siqi one-on-one could not withstand the continuous fire of light cannons, so there was no need for Gao Siqi to use this form of highly concentrated mental lightsaber.
Anyone who has seen the Crimson Warrior in this form is undoubtedly a truly top-level star navigator.
For example, Ming Zhuofeng, and Musa, the commander of the Second Legion.
Even Ah Shui, who is also the Minister of Star Navigation, couldn't use this trick as well as Gao Siqi!
amazing.
Gao Siqi looked at the silver starship in front of him through the surging energy flow.
Although the Crimson Warrior's mechanical heart was now limited to 50% of its power, she knew it in her heart.
Even if it works at 100% power...
Even the colorful one could still block her bursts! LUCE could still devour her mental energy, forcing her to close her cannon, and Mu Boxing would surely seize the opportunity...
Force her to swing the sword!
This sword was so intensely burning with energy that its outer edge was glowing with bright white light!
Hiss——
Two energy pillars collided silently in the universe.
The energy of the Crimson Warrior's lightsaber was even more concentrated than the previous continuous light cannon. Mu Baixing's fingers tightened instantly and he let out a barely audible groan.
This was indeed a heavy and powerful sword.
It was as if a real energy split his golden mental power, and the burning golden flames also splashed in all directions in this sword.
Just like Terrell's defensive light cannon, such a strong and condensed mental force was difficult to ignite quickly.
If ordinary mental force threads are like dry wood sticks that will ignite at the slightest touch, then the Crimson Warrior's highly concentrated lightsaber is like cold, hard steel.
The gold stain on the lightsaber's rim was but a speck of sparks on the steel, brightening for a moment before fading away again.
The golden mental cannon was split in two in front, flying outward from the middle, turning into two beams of light and fire, brushing past the left and right windows of the crimson warrior, leaving only two scorch marks.
Mu Baixing's finger pulled down the control lever, and the starship did not retreat, but dived forward rapidly. A second, more concentrated barrage of artillery fire immediately rushed out -
Gao Siqi: "You still don't believe it!"
The thruster at the bottom of the barrel roared, and the lightsaber in the "hand" of the crimson warrior moved from bottom to top, and raised again. Gao Siqi's mental concentration increased again with Mu Baixing's second attack, dissolving the attack of the burning light cannon!
Mingyu: "I also——"
The panel at the front of the Crimson Starship lifted outward again.
"Secondary gun muzzle!" the plush rabbit screamed, "Gao Siqi still has enough energy to open the secondary gun muzzle!——"
"It's enough to deal with Mu Boxing alone!" The dual-line operation also brought a lot of pressure to Gao Siqi. She panted rapidly and pulled the secondary gun muzzle switch, "LUCE, don't come to make trouble!"
"Buzz—"
The condenser sounded, and the secondary gun muzzles on the left and right sides of the Crimson Warrior lit up.
A high-speed continuous-fire cannon similar to that of the main gun burst out. Mingyu turned the operating lever, gave up attacking the crimson warrior, and lit up the shield.
"The two sides are in a stalemate!" The plush rabbit shouted, "Colorful and Crimson Warrior are fighting fiercely! Mu Boxing no longer distances himself, but rushes towards the Crimson Warrior! He needs a closer distance to make his artillery fire more powerful--"
"But at the same time! LUCE will also have to bear more pressure!"
Golden, blue and crimson lights flickered in the universe, as if forming a ever-changing artificial nebula.
As the distance between the two starships closed again, the dark golden psychic cannon became increasingly aggressive. The Crimson Warrior's lightsaber burned with golden sparks with each slash, and the broken crimson energy strands scattered across the universe. The black scratches on the Crimson Warrior's side grew deeper and deeper.
At the same time, the Crimson Warrior's secondary gun muzzle was still spewing out fierce fire at high power.
A bright blue mental shield flashed in the void, and Mingyu blocked it with all his strength.
His mental strength was far inferior to Mu Boxing's, and he was unable to completely block the Crimson Warrior's light cannon. However, his devouring ability could make up for this deficiency, completely absorbing the mental power that could not be blocked.
"This is an incredibly fierce war of attrition!" Rabbit, the commentator, worried for the colorful creature, said quickly, "Energy supplies aren't infinite! Regardless of which side, when the pilot and observer's mental strength reaches the point of overload, they must abandon this intense confrontation!"
"It seems that the colorful team is clearly at a disadvantage in this regard. Minister Gao Siqi has had more and more rest time than them, and he is almost fully recovered! But LUCE and Mu Boxing just went through a tough battle, and even if they rested during the maintenance period, they are obviously not back to their peak condition yet!"
"If they can't find a breakthrough, they'll likely be defeated after their mental strength is depleted! I guess the colorful ones are waiting for the crimson warrior's secondary guns to finish firing!"
Mingyu's arm was shaking as he pulled the joystick.
He had resisted nearly a hundred barrages of artillery fire. Scattered crimson energy threads were suspended in the universe around the silver starship, like large pieces of fallen rose petals.
The colorful-haired men were extremely nervous. Red Hair stared at the detection screen and said quickly, "Brother LU! They seem to have a secondary gun muzzle!——"
As the burst count gradually approached one hundred, the front armor of the Crimson Warrior starship flipped upwards again.
"More?!!" the plush rabbit yelled, "The Crimson Warrior's second secondary gun has been fired! It's about to take over from the first secondary gun and fire continuously! A hundred times, three minutes of continuous firing time! When the second secondary gun finishes firing, the first secondary gun will just be cooling down!..."
Red Hair: "This kind of burst is endless! When will it end?!"
"The colorful situation is a bit difficult, like being a target for the Crimson Warrior."
In the Killer Team's lounge, Observer Momonga looked at the scene before him and said thoughtfully, "If Luce and Mu Boxing switched their methods of dealing with the light cannon, perhaps things would be easier."
"Luce's psychic power is currently suspended around their own starship. He can't use Devouring Blast, so he can only serve as a basic shield. If he can come into contact with Gao Siqi's lightsaber, he might be able to cause considerable damage to the Crimson Warrior by detonating his energy."
"It's not that easy." Captain Bai Xiang retorted, "Luce is an observer, and his mental strength is insufficient. If he collides with Gao Siqi's highly concentrated mental power, he might be completely shattered upon contact. But Mu Baixing..."
"Mu Boxing has already reached the upper limit of Gao Siqi's energy concentration through repeated exchanges, and is currently increasing the concentration of his own light cannon. Look at the outer edge of the red lightsaber... the outer edge of this lightsaber has begun to be stained with golden flames. 'Ignite' is taking effect again. But even if he ignites the lightsaber, Gao Siqi can simply cut off the energy supply and retreat in time, and the damage won't be too great."
"If it was Mu Baixing who possessed the spiritual power of swallowing explosions at this time, it would be much easier."
"Minister Gao is probably going to win," said Momonga with a serious expression. "Even though our mental power levels are similar, there's still a huge gap between these battle-hardened space travelers and us!"
In the cockpit of the Crimson Warrior, Gao Siqi looked focused and solemn, without any trace of the ease of victory.
As the pilot fighting against Mu Baixing... no one realized more deeply than her what kind of terrifying oppression the opponent brought to his opponent with his bombardment of shells.
Operating the lightsaber and secondary gun at the same time put a huge strain on her mental domain, and the time she could sustain such a fierce attack was actually far shorter than Rabbit Commentator expected.
And Mu Boxing's mental light cannon... was much more difficult to deal with than she had expected!
The opponent's mental concentration increased with each shot, soon pushing her ability to the limit and about to completely ignite her lightsaber!
"No wonder." Gao Siqi murmured, "Even though Feilun is not very good, it shouldn't have collapsed so quickly in the third game of the qualifiers..."
Only those who have actually fought against it can feel the horror of the dark golden mental cannon!
The unhesitating, incomparably sharp artillery fire, each attack more powerful than the last, the sense of urgency that no matter how hard he tried to increase his mental focus, he would be pursued by the enemy, those flickering flames that threatened to consume his mental power at any moment...
"This guy doesn't look like a novice at all!" Gao Siqi muttered to himself, "Even in the free star field...even in the outer port..."
Such terrible drivers should not be trained!
"Those people in the registration and screening department are probably slacking off!" Gao Siqi couldn't help but say, "Only those with less than five years of experience in space travel can participate... Mu Baixing really only has less than five years of experience in space travel?!"
Let alone five years! Even ten, fifteen years... in peacetime, it would be difficult to produce such a driver.
The opponent's combat style... is simply like the characteristics of a star navigator honed in the Battle of Dawn during the turbulent times when they were closely threatened by the Black Tide!
"Don't be distracted!" Lando, the observer, shouted, "Focus!"
Another dark golden fire arrived in an instant, and the lightsaber was a second late in its movement, almost failing to cut through the fire.
A huge stream of energy hit the hull of the starship in front of the Crimson Warrior, causing a dull sound in the cockpit.
A distinct dark gold circle has appeared on the outer edge of the originally bright white lightsaber, and the edge of the originally stable sword-shaped energy has become blurred, as if it will start burning at any time.
Gao Siqi: "..."
"Three more shots," she gritted her teeth, "and the lightsaber will ignite with all sorts of colors!"
Once the lightsaber is ignited, she can cut off the energy supply and retreat.
But at the same time... she also lost her last means of protection from Mu Boxing's mental cannon.
The moment she cut off the lightsaber's energy supply, the opponent had enough time to turn the muzzle towards the Crimson Warrior himself...
Such highly concentrated golden artillery fire can definitely turn the crimson warrior into a huge fireball in an instant!
And she knew that the colorful ones were waiting for that moment!
"It's difficult." Gao Siqi's voice was hoarse and his forehead was covered with sweat.
Beside her, observer Lando's mental power bypassed Mu Boxing's mental cannon and approached the colorful silver starship from both sides.
"Should we use that?" Lando asked. "The density of the crimson mental threads surrounding the enemy starship is sufficient."
"They really pulled out all their best skills!" Gao Siqi raised his voice and said briefly, "Use them!"
"We can't let them delay us any longer!"
"What do you think of the foreshadowing, Brother Mu?" Ming Yu said loudly inside the colorful starship, "Can we use that trump card—"
"Use it." Mu Baixing pressed his finger on the operation panel, tilted his head slightly, and signaled to Mingyu.
"Bang!——"
The second secondary gun muzzle of the Crimson Warrior suddenly lit up at the same time as the first secondary gun muzzle.
The crimson rays converged into one spot, and the energy of the lightsaber within the main gun barrel suddenly surged, the condensed blade of light suddenly extending outwards.
The rabbit commentator opened his eyes wide in shock.
"It's like a ten-meter-long sword suddenly becomes a hundred meters long—!" the Rabbit commentator yelled. "The Crimson Warrior... to use a somewhat inappropriate metaphor, the Crimson Warrior's attack is like a player suddenly using cheats—"
This is an all-out attack.
Gao Siqi's whole body was tense, and he sent all his remaining mental energy to the heart of the starship without reservation.
The extended lightsaber held at the main gun barrel slashed down with great force from top to bottom! Together with the two secondary gun barrels that merged into one, it launched the most powerful energy attack she had ever unleashed in this competition... with a thunderous momentum, it attacked the colorful starship!
