Chapter 87 Chapter 87 This is our weak black heart...
The mecha, as black as the midnight sky, landed on top of the signal tower.
It has its back to the antenna and overlooks the entire island.
This is a city that once died.
The walls were peeling, the glass was covered with dust, and the concrete was broken due to fighting, revealing broken steel bars.
A city without humans is lifeless, and all the tall buildings have an inevitable tendency to decay.
The smell of rust is tinged with a bloody scent.
Huanxing Island.
Tao Ying's lips curled up into a smile.
This will be what everyone will know me as——
The first stage.
The crowd's enthusiastic gazes converged on the signal tower spire at the center of the island.
And Heng I leaned back and fell with a loud bang.
·
On top of a tall building, a mecha was standing on the highest helipad in the city.
The fiery red paint job that burns like a blazing flame creates a very aggressive appearance.
It is Minghuo MK2.
It has cleared four areas, and there are only five teams left on the field. The competition is about to decide the top three.
Sun Xian half-knelt on the ground and pressed the stinging solar plexus.
The battle lasted too long.
Every time Sun Xian drove the Minghuo for more than four hours, his brain would feel unbearable pain, even radiating to his neck and shoulders.
This stinging sensation of having his nerves pulled was unbearable no matter how many times he experienced it.
But it doesn't matter.
Be patient for a while, and once he finds the remaining teams, he will lead the Empire's No. 1 Military Academy to win the championship of this league.
Just deal with four more teams!
Sun Xian paused for a moment, then stood up with a determined look in his eyes.
All of this is possible thanks to Minghuo MK2.
Because this is a flawless, perfect mecha.
Sun Xian's mental power is only B.
The admission requirements for the Empire's No. 1 Military Academy, which he longed for, were A's in both mental strength and physical fitness.
He was originally not able to attend the empire's first military academy.
But, Iowa Tech gave him this opportunity!
Iowa Tech sponsored him and recommended him for admission, allowing him, who only had a B in mental ability, to realize his long-cherished dream.
It even gives him and people like him who don't have high mental strength the opportunity to try out the perceptual mecha.
He is incredibly grateful to Iowa Tech.
Iowa Tech is practically his adopted parent.
Therefore, Sun Xian had already decided that he would use this mecha to win the game completely and without any suspense, allowing Minghuo to show its strength on this stage.
No other machine can defeat it!
Sun Xian's hand clenched the red mental tentacles.
"Faster, faster, stronger, stronger! Third brother, tell me the location of the next team!"
Sun Xian's eyes were bloodshot and he seemed a little crazy in a trance.
But in the team channel, the third brother did not reply.
Sun Xian shouted: "Third Brother!!"
"Relax, Captain," Jiang Lingxue was a little frightened by his tone and tried to smooth things over. "The third brother was targeted by Turantis and was busy sniping him. He blocked the team channel. Why don't you take a break? You look very tired."
Sun Xian gritted his teeth: "No, I'm not tired, I'm in the best condition now."
Sun Xuan felt that his mental strength had never been so strong since he was born.
He wants to win, he wants to wipe out the entire island!
At this moment, behind three buildings, Sun Xian suddenly felt the same spiritual power.
His bloodshot eyes were fixed on the shadow.
“It’s coming.”
No need to say anything, no explanation is needed.
There is a natural connection between the pilots of Perceptual Mechas, and they can quickly detect each other's presence.
Especially - the psychic modules of these two mechas were manufactured by the same person.
Minghuo crossed his hands, and the knife on his wrist popped out to protect his arms, ready to attack.
And out of that shadow, a pure black machine walked out.
"Hengwo!" Sun Xian called out its name.
Black, like a bottomless abyss.
Red, like the flames burning in the sky.
In the middle of the two tall buildings, two mechas faced each other silently, like contestants in a fighting arena, without saying a word.
The extreme contrast between black and red constantly impacted the vision of everyone present. And the atmosphere was like a bowstring, constantly and continuously being pulled tight.
Then, the thrusters increased their firepower three times in a row.
Two mechas popped out from the bowstring at the same time.
“Zheng——”
The abyss and the flames collided, and the knife on the wrist made a sharp sound.
The two mechas, one black and one red, are extremely similar in appearance, like twins.
One strike, another strike, the metal blade rubbed against each other.
They collided in the scattered firelight.
Exploding star fragments kept falling on the tall buildings.
Everyone held their breath.
Lin Biege was stunned: "Is this our weak and black-hearted captain?"
Nan Gua said excitedly: "I knew Xiaoying was not an ordinary person. She has a unique ability!"
Not only were they shocked, but the audience in the stands were all petrified and even forgot to breathe.
How could there be such a mecha?
How can you fight so beautifully?
Is this a fight that humans can fight? Is this the limit of human mental strength?
"Has anyone ever seen two sentient mechs battle in the league? Look at their graceful, almost human yet not-so-human fighting style. The clash of cold weapons, the beauty of modern technology blended with primitive savagery, is truly moving!"
"Blades clashed, they attacked each other at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye - my God, this will be a record that will be recorded in the history of the league!"
The commentator said in a sonorous voice.
But this evenly matched situation did not last long.
To be exact, it didn't last ten minutes.
Soon, the commentator hesitated and said, "Hengwo's movements seem to be getting a little slow?"
The commentator was not wrong, Tao Ying's game was indeed becoming increasingly difficult.
Her physical strength was almost gone.
Soon, Tao Ying fell into a disadvantage and was forced to stagger backward until he reached the edge of the top floor.
His foot slipped and he almost lost his balance and fell. The audience in the stands stood up excitedly.
Lin Biege shouted on the team channel: "Shadow, didn't you say your machine is better than his?"
Tao Ying coughed lightly: "His physique is better than mine."
Lin Biege and Nan Gua: "..."
That's true, someone's physique can only last twelve minutes.
Seeing that he was about to lose, Lin Biege said anxiously, "How about finding a place to hide and survive for a while?"
The Beor player next to her also lay down and said, "Yeah, it's a shame for you to lose here. Sun Xian's physique has reached S-level. He is very famous for his fighting skills, and he doesn't just rely on the strength of his body."
Tao Ying gasped as he dodged an attack. "Indeed, Sun Xian's exceptional physical qualities are perfectly reflected in the mecha after being mapped at such a high speed by the perception mecha."
"Why don't you run?! Stop talking and save your energy!"
"Do you believe me?"
Again? Why does this guy always ask, "Trust me?" in every crisis?
Lin Biege's song is incredible.
But she was still using such a playful tone at this time, so I didn't think she really had any tricks up her sleeve.
Lin Biege grabbed his sleeves and squinted his eyes to observe the battle situation carefully.
I was pushed to the edge of the tarmac and was about to fall.
Minghuo made a feint with the knife in his right hand, but quietly put away the sword with his left hand and clenched his fist.
With one attack, Hengwo was directly knocked away!
Hengwo fell diagonally, breaking through several floors in succession, and finally crashing into the 50th floor of a building.
The glass on the exterior of the high-rise building shattered, and the sharp glass fell like raindrops in the sunset.
I fell among the broken glass and didn't get up for a long time.
“…”Where’s the follow-up move you agreed on?
I heard that the pilot of a perceptual mecha has a special connection with the mecha, and damage to the mecha will also stimulate the pilot himself.
I hope Tao Ying won’t faint from that blow just now?
"Xiaoying, are you okay?" "Shadow!"
Soon, there was a crisp sound of crashing. I stood up on my knees and shook off the glass fragments on my body.
A fixed shuttle passed by Hengwo like a rocking car.
There was also children's music playing.
Tao Ying chuckled softly, "I'm fine, I'm just not used to this body yet."
Two teammates: "..."
At a time like this, do you still have the time to suffer from a second-year syndrome?
Sure enough, Sun Xian's second attack came soon. Minghuo pulled out a metal billboard from the roof of the building and roughly crumpled it into a ball.
Then he stood on one leg, tilted his arm holding the ball back, put his left leg on the ground, and threw it out at high speed.
Towards Tao Ying's direction.
"In the Mecha League, you can even see mechas serve at high speed. With one ticket, you can enjoy both the Mecha League and a baseball game."
"Wow, that ball's speed! If it hits the cockpit, it'll be terrible. Will it affect the pilot himself?"
"By the way, how's Heng? Camera, please turn the direction. We can't see inside the building from here. How's Heng?"
Everyone was scratching their heads in panic, but it was no use.
The metal ball shot into the building and then stopped moving.
All people could hear was the metal ball colliding with something, making a loud noise.
Did it hit?
Heng, am I knocked down?
Out of everyone's curiosity, the floating camera finally turned an angle and came to the front of the building.
The black mecha head popped out from the floor.
And then, its hand stretched out.
The metal ball was embedded in Hengwo's palm, still spinning and emitting green flames.
"I caught it, I caught it!"
"Heng, I'm fine!"
Hengwo barely caught the ball, then leaned against the side of the building and looked at Minghuo.
It seemed that the pilot had run out of energy.
"The game isn't over yet, but why isn't my pilot moving? Is she injured?"
In my mechanical palm, the metal ball with a diameter of one meter gradually stopped rotating. Due to excessive friction, the metal ball became red hot.
A red fireball falls from the building.
And at this moment, Heng I am hugging my right arm.
Of course, Minghuo's attack just now was very powerful. If Hengwo took it at this distance, his right arm would definitely be affected.
Because of the mental connection with the body, the pilot's right arm is probably feeling numb and tingling right now.
Seeing Tao Ying didn't move for a long time, Sun Xian mocked: "What, are you out of tricks?"
Sun Xian had heard that this pilot came from an unknown third-rate military academy. Now it was true. Her single attack method told Sun Xian that she had obviously not received professional training.
He probably thought that if he got a good mecha, he could compete with him.
How does a new recruit compare to a trained one?
Sun Xian was about to make a few more sarcastic remarks when he saw Heng Wo in front of him with his arms folded, looking at him leisurely.
What's going on?
Why is she still so calm?
The other party was too at ease, and Sun Xian realized something was wrong. He slowly lowered his head and only then realized that he was at the bottom of the building.
It's a gas station.
Because it has been abandoned for too long, the ground has cracked, revealing the oil pipeline buried underground.
The fireball landed right at the crack!
The high temperature of the fireball ignited the entire oil pipeline the moment it landed.
Under high pressure, a huge explosion occurred.
With Minghuo as the center, the entire ground collapsed completely, the buildings tilted, and turned into ruins in an instant.
The entire island began to shake.
All the players felt the impact and stopped moving at the same moment.
"What happened, an earthquake?"
“This thing isn’t in an earthquake zone!!”
"An underwater volcano erupted?!"
For a moment, the mechas on the field fell all over the place.
The audience in the stands also felt the tremor.
The safe distance between the stands and the Ring Star Island makes the audience feel alienated from the stadium.
But at this time, the vibration under their feet and the violent shaking of the sea water seemed to make them stand on the same ground as the players in the field.
"Oh—I feel like my blood is burning!"
·
Minghuo fell to the ground.
Tao Ying stood on the top floor, looking down at it.
There is a specific mental communication channel between the two perceptual mechas.
Sun Xian vaguely heard a female voice say—
"The competition is not just about brute force, it's also about brains."
Tao Ying tapped her head lightly with her right index finger.
