Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy

“`

“This sneaky move is finally going head-to-head with someone!”

A player started live-streaming the battle under that forum post, saying if the 20 Star Coins weren’t worth it, they were ready to roast the original poster.

Meanwhile, Black in the PO Battle Net was ready and eager for action, with many new phrases he recently learned finally coming into play. Lord Black was about to dominate the forum!

As Mu Fan freed his hands to the control console, the familiar feeling returned.

The usage condition for Virtual Flash was still far off, but his most skilled Chaotic Zigzag Step had improved to a proficient level after battling those from the Broken Axe Star Thief Group.

The paying viewers saw the Undead III Type move, first making a small diagonal hop, then the whole mecha rushed towards the Guerrilla with an inexplicable gait.

The opponent raised the Crack Electric Blade, boasting the highest mobility among the fifth-generation reconnaissance mechas. However, this mecha of yours had forsaken the trademark traps and mines of the Undead series.

Using a Ghost Energy Dagger instead, what a joke.

The pilot of the Guerrilla wore a smirk, while not far away, Wang Nuonuo was lost in her own world, unable to be stopped.

But the player’s smile on the Guerrilla V Type froze because he realized he had no idea how to even strike the first blow with the Undead mecha’s steps?

Such a bizarre motion—every time he calculated to swing, an inexplicable sidestep on the opponent’s part would disrupt him, making him feel sick and wanting to vomit.

The forum viewers were buzzing.

“Whoa, is this the Chaotic Zigzag Step?”

“High-end Fantasy skill! Isn’t it rumored only top players above the seventh level room or Platinum rank can perform this move?”

“You bumpkin, you don’t know, huh? This Boast Man’s fame battle was thanks to the Chaotic Zigzag Step, using an unmodified Heavy Mecha from the Realist system back then.”

With some discussions, it quickly led to more people on the forum choosing to pay to watch.

The forum administrators noticed the anomaly in this post because it appeared in all the forums but quickly realized their permissions were not enough to delete it.

“Hehe, I am the supreme God, do you understand the supreme God!” Black narcissistically muttered in the cockpit.

“What?” Mu Fan focused on controlling the mecha, asked without turning his head.

“Nothing, pay attention to deal with the mecha in front of you.”

“Ten seconds.”

Mu Fan only needed ten seconds to solve the Guerrilla in front of him. In his eyes, the mecha wielding the Crack Electric Blade was full of openings.@@novelbin@@

The two mechas were approaching, about to engage.

Finally, the player operating the Guerrilla couldn’t stand it anymore and swung down. Mu Fan smiled slyly, and with a flurry of his fingers, six groups of countering commands were issued instantly.

The unique keyboard layout of this mecha allowed Mu Fan to perform some high-skill maneuvers more easily, and the feedback speed of the mecha was much more satisfactory compared to the RX-16.

The Crack Electric Blade was about to strike the Undead mecha, but Mu Fan’s calm gaze remained unflinching. Just as the blade was a few dozen centimeters from the mecha’s shoulder armor, Mu Fan’s mecha suddenly ducked and lunged.

“He was controlling the engine power all along!” the forum crowd gasped. The Undead mecha created an illusion of full-speed advance, but it hadn’t even reached 80% power output.

The sudden change left the Guerrilla unable to react effectively.

The Undead mecha slashed upwards with the Ghost Energy Dagger, and as the two mechas passed, the Guerrilla swung its right arm, trying a counter-clockwise reverse strike.

But the Undead mecha lightly landed, rebounded, and sprang clockwise from Guerrilla V Type’s right side once more.

The Ghost Energy Dagger slashed across.

Crack! Guerrilla V Type’s dual shoulders fractured, and the Crack Electric Blade fell to the ground.

In the cockpit, the player couldn’t believe the system prompt: “Warning! 40% damage to mecha body, arms lost motor control.”

This couldn’t be just a Ghost Energy Dagger, no way it could have such powerful cutting capability.

“Impossible!” Forum players exclaimed.

“No, look again at the slow-motion replay of the last 10 seconds, check the hands of the Undead mecha!”

“High-frequency vibration!”

Utilizing the hydraulic system of the mecha’s hand, high-frequency vertical shaking while delivering a parallel strike could maximize the cutting effect of melee weapons.

After advancing and slashing, Mu Fan felt that his hand speed was enough to achieve another goal—maximizing damage to the enemy mecha.

Just like slicing open a Fierce Beast with a dagger.

So he subconsciously tried the intuitive action.

And he pulled it off.

Even Black, who was gearing up for a flame war with the forum crowd, froze.

“I never taught that move.”

After all these coincidences occurred, the lightweight shell of Guerrilla V Type was “sawn” open in just two seconds.

“You’re cheating!” the opposing pilot was so furious that he just shouted through a speaker.

“Pfft, hahahaha!”

“You’re the cheat, your whole family’s cheating, and this two-legged mecha’s still standing strong!”

The audience who paid 20 Star Coins couldn’t help but burst into laughter, uniting their stance against the opponent.

“Pierce the cockpit, get another point!” the crowd roared, but Mu Fan couldn’t hear any of it.

He was prepared to do so, but Black’s earlier reminder echoed in his mind again. How could he draw more attention? Be cheeky like Black?

If Black heard that, he’d definitely curse out loud, what’s with being cheeky like me.

I’m definitely the cheekiest!

“Why isn’t this Undead mecha piercing through?”

“Hurry up and pierce it!”

“Holy crap, why is he picking up that Crack Electric Blade on the ground?”

“… So damn cheeky.”

“I like it!”

Guerrilla V Type’s mecha sadly watched as the opposite Undead mecha sheathed its Ghost Energy Dagger back into the side weapon slots and then squatted to pick up its own Crack Electric Blade.

That’s my weapon, the one I spent a fortune on after unlocking the blueprint!

In PO Battle Net contests, if a mecha’s weapon drops in any battle, other mechas can pick it up and use it, except for some exclusive weapons that integrate with the mecha.

Clearly, this sparking Flowing Light Long Blade wasn’t an exclusive mecha weapon; it was added by the pilot just to show off.

Mu Fan gripped it with both hands, intending to slash down.

The Guerrilla’s player closed his eyes, damn it, come on.

…

Eh? Why hasn’t the “defeated” message appeared?

That player opened his eyes, nearly choking with anger.

The Undead mecha was measuring with the blade over his mecha.

Mu Fan was muttering, deciding whether cutting here or there would be more effective for a fatal blow.

“Laughing so hard, my stomach hurts…”

“This scene is too strong, I have to become his fan. No wonder he’s the level five room Powerful Pretender!”

“I want to have your babies!” a girl replied below.

Mu Fan’s mind suddenly flashed with the image left on the Shura Mecha back when his consciousness was muddled.

Decree… Gale Blade?
