Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Dominant Military Mecha
Editor: Noodletown Translations
“There’s a military mecha intruding from the rear!” Finally, the remaining three mechas realized it. They immediately stopped their attack on Fowen Manor, quickly retreated, and then gradually formed a triangular formation to encircle it.
Seeing the opponent suddenly stop their attack, Wayne frowned and asked his subordinates, “Why did they suddenly stop the attack? Hurry and switch the defensive firepower group.”
“The enemy mecha seems to be on alert at the rear.”
Hearing his subordinate’s report, Wayne stared intently at the battle screen and sternly said, “Switch the perspective!”
Thus, the people in Fowen Manor saw the military mecha standing on the body of the “Fiery Fire Bomber” within one second, that iconic sword and shield, its still silhouette instantly gave everyone immense confidence, “RX-16!”
“Great, we’re saved; the military has finally acted!”
The operations room burst into cheers.
…
At the Wen family, Councilman Wen Yu, dressed in a tuxedo, leisurely enjoyed a cigar while watching several screens in front of him, with Wen Zheming standing obediently by his side.
After seeing the screen showing six military bases being attacked, Wen Yu nonchalantly exhaled a smoke ring and gently said to Wen Zheming beside him, “No mercy for the enemy.”
Seeing Wen Zheming nod, Wen Yu showed a satisfied expression, casually pointing to a pattern in the upper right corner of the screen, which depicted the Fourth Guard in action. He commented calmly, “When this band of brutes acts, they will find themselves quite pathetic.”
He then pointed to a photo, specifically the picture of a Poison Scorpion, “Those who labor for others utilize brute force, the lowest form of method. Use your mind more.”
Wen Zheming’s expression showed some clear reluctance upon hearing these words, but he suppressed it.
Wen Yu acted as if he hadn’t noticed, turned his back, and spoke to himself, “The New Guardian Association, I began preparations from the moment I arrived on Loga Star. Poison Scorpion wants to consume me, just as I want to clear potential enemies under his name. Zheming, history has always been written by the victors. Follow me and witness a moment of miracle.” Then he walked into the room guided by a servant.
Wen Zheming looked at the hellish scene on the screen, a hint of a brutal smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, before concealing it and following his father into the room. Regardless of what he says, he absolutely cannot miss this magnificent moment.
“Lord, ten minutes until the government network is restored.” Hearing these words from a nearby officer, Wen Yu showed a hint of a smile, “Enough, notify Poison Scorpion. Wind Thief and Thunder Slash can prepare to strike, clearing the high firepower points of the military.”
After the officer left, Wen Yu turned to Wen Zheming behind him and said, “In five minutes, when that Councilman plans to speak to appease, everything will change.”
He turned to the butler nearby and said, “Connect audio, broadcast it on all channels.”
“Yes.”
“Fellow citizens, do not panic. I am Wen Yu, and I am ashamed of the government’s slow response! But now, as the second Councilman of Loga Star, I speak up: either the enemy crosses our bodies, or we cross theirs! Full-scale counterattack, begin!”
Wen Yu’s voice spread through special channels to every corner of No.1 City Zone and No.2 City Zone. These two zones almost gathered 95% of the planet’s elite. When those fleeing from the fires of war heard the government’s strong and powerful signal, Councilman Wen Yu’s prestige reached its peak at this moment.
Simultaneously, another military unit appeared inside and outside the city. Compared to the previous disorganized skirmishes, this unit was more orderly, its purpose clearer. The first thing this unit did upon appearing was not to attack but to begin orderly consolidation. But the public did not understand this. When they saw the Federation’s mechas appear, they all began to cheer excitedly.
Dozens of kilometers away, Poison Scorpion observed this scene through binoculars, listening to Wen Yu’s message that had just arrived, and smirked coldly, asking nearby, “Is the source crystal exchange in the asteroid belt complete?”
“Exchange completed, Leader!”
“Hmm, old thing, we each take what we need. Inform the Deputy Leader that Thunder Slash is to strike in ten minutes.” Poison Scorpion kept something in reserve; Wind Thief was his own ride, and there was no need to deploy it at this moment.
“Yes, Leader!”
…
Far away in No.1 City Zone, Mu Fan had no idea what was going on over there. He was confronting the three mechas in front of him.
“Where is Poison Scorpion?” Mu Fan watched the combat screen but asked another question. His ultimate goal was to kill Poison Scorpion.
“Having just intercepted a secret message from the Broken Axe Star Thief Group, we now estimate there’s a 75% probability he’s in the first city zone, specific location unknown, requiring further confirmation.” Poison Scorpion, with his many hidden refuges, would never expect there was a great Intelligent Life—Lord Black—working hard to track his whereabouts.
“Understood! Plot the route,” Mu Fan replied, aiming to swiftly deal with these three and make his way to No.1 City Zone.
“Knight II Close Combat Mecha,” “Avalanche W75 Leopard Mecha,” “Spirit Cat D-level Tiger Type Mecha,” these three mechas had closed in. Mu Fan didn’t recognize the models; he only noticed there was one human-shaped mecha and two beast-shaped mechas. If he knew that the pilot of the human-shaped mecha was the Zebra-masked man, he might wonder what to think.
“The opponent is a travel-class mecha, finish it quickly,” Lord Black urged. If an adventure-class military mecha lost to three ordinary travel-class mechas, Mu Fan could truly abandon the path of mecha piloting in the future.
Mu Fan’s fingers rapidly tapped, RX-16 drew its sword, wielding its shield to strike a combat stance.
Seeing this scene, the pilots inside those three mechas rejoiced; the opposite mecha had no long-range firepower! Meanwhile, the faces of everyone in Fowen Manor’s underground operations room turned grim. With no other teammates, facing three opponents without long-range firepower, what difference was there to a stationary target? At most, it would be a moving target.
“Fire!” Knight II drew out the Type 19 large-caliber double-barreled rifle, a weapon capable of delivering effective strikes at short range, its large-caliber ammunition fully capable of inflicting high damage on nearby mechas.
The two beast-shaped mechas jumped apart, their rotating turrets on their backs directly launched two rounds of four-barrel missile volleys.
Mu Fan’s controlled RX-16 also moved at this time; suddenly Mu Fan’s fingers and muscles pulled strongly, five keys without order, 1-second dash command forcibly compressed to 0.81 seconds!
Under the Dark Breath enhancement, apm instantly exceeded 350!
Thus, everyone observing the battlefield noticed that this unarmed RX-16 crossed strides to engage! That bizarre gait wasn’t noticed at first, but when a round of six missiles missed, only then did everyone get startled by this mecha’s advancing gait!
Chaotic Zigzag Step! Officially debuted on Loga Star!
Raising the shield casually, it blocked the Knight II’s shooting. Following the impact from the bullets, Mu Fan’s advancing pace seemed to slow momentarily, then the second missile barely brushed past within half a meter!
A miracle!
Seeing the energy shield drop by 4%, Mu Fan gained confidence in his mecha. From PO to reality, finally there was an instance where his mecha was better than others!
Thus, everyone saw this mecha charged as if energized, dodging multiple missile strikes while holding the shield against gunfire, then in the same fashion collided with the Knight II, raising the heavy sword with the right hand, slash!
Half of the body was cleaved under the heavy sword.
Knight II, down!
At this point, Mu Fan’s RX-16 made a move, throwing the heavy shield to the ground, gripping the sword with both hands, adopting an attacking stance.
Completely abandoning the heavy shield essential for survival, a purely sword-wielding heavy mecha! Without hesitation, it charged towards the Leopard Mecha. When the Leopard Mecha leapt into the air, opening its mouth to spit metal torrents, this mecha performed an ordinary swaying motion, then slid, sword raised, slashing through!
Sliced in two!
The last Tiger-shaped Mecha pilot was utterly frightened, preparing to escape. However, to avoid further issues, Mu Fan, relying on the superior performance of his mecha, caught up and delivered a sword sweep! From back to front, pinning the last mecha against the wall.
Annihilated!
This military mecha now stood barehanded, posed dominantly on Jiahe Avenue.
Single-handedly, vanquishing four mechas!
