Chapter 77: Chapter 77: Debut
Editor: Noodletown Translations
The Sword and Shield cha, charging at full speed, struck with a formidable presence. Its weighty steps stomped down, imdiately creating a depression in the ground already reduced to ruins by explosions. When this aggressive cha appeared in the city, the Star Thieves who were shooting everywhere imdiately noticed it.
A noticeable mark on the Alloy Heavy Shield, Federation military!
A military cha had actually barged in. Weren’t they supposed to have so ti before the firepower swept through? After their initial shock, the Star Thieves quickly began to shift their fire. However, ordinary firearms were ineffective against this 9.3-ton cha, doing nothing but bouncing off its armor with crackling sounds.
Mu Fan took a glance at the battle screen, the energy reserve of the cha body was at 98%. The readiness was still at 85%, Energy Shield at 100%. The infantry weapons of those Star Thieves hadn’t caused even 1% damage to this cha.
“Mu Fan, raise the shield on the left!” Black’s voice ca through. Mu Fan’s hand reacted faster than his brain, completing the operation spanning half the control panel within 0.5 seconds. Then he saw the left arm of the rapidly running cha lift without warning.
“Bang!” The Energy Shield dropped by 2%. Through the battle screen, Mu Fan saw two plus of white smoke rising in the distance. In the thermal imaging on the battle screen, there were two vague human figures behind those plus.
“Single Soldier Anti-Armor Rocket, model unknown.” Black had already taken over the control system of the cha, tily identifying the weapon type.
“Stop moving straight, try to perform evasive maneuvers.” Black, like a cha instructor, was providing Mu Fan with comprehensive guidance during combat.
Black didn’t say it explicitly, but Mu Fan understood imdiately, the Chaotic Zigzag Step!
A high-end cha step skill, the Chaotic Zigzag Step! Mu Fan hadn’t tried it in the real world yet; would he have to try it now? Taking a deep breath, then opening his eyes, Dark Breath activated. He entered a state of serene calmness. At this mont, Mu Fan’s mind was operating at high speed, reminiscent of the state he was in during the PO Battle Net battle that night.
There was no 85% simulation here, it was 100% the real world. Operations here had to account for muscle endurance, as well as the chanical master’s own physical fitness.
APM of 350, Mu Fan had previously heard from Black that his APM only fluctuated around 300. After activating the Dark Breath state, it was approximately close to 350 APM. However, he didn’t know that his actual APM peak could break through 380! Now, clenching his fists, this was his body. His fists filled with burning power, Mu Fan felt his physical condition was incomparably good.
Let
make up for it with muscle strength!
Attempting the first set of 1-second counter orders, every button on the console magnified and flashed before Mu Fan’s eyes, then his fingers danced swiftly and nimbly, completed in 0.97 seconds!
First attempt, success!
Suddenly, this seemingly cumberso cha stopped running in a straight line on the ruins. With a shake of its shoulder, the entire cha began to sway unpredictably.
The second set of 1-second counter orders, 0.95 seconds! Mu Fan now had ample confidence, having succeeded the first ti, he was sure he wouldn’t fail next! He believed in himself, believing in himself at any mont, the pride of a scavenger boy—who could understand!
“Boom,” two warheads skimd over the shoulder and abdon of the cha, exploding behind, engulfing multiple Star Thieves on the street with a loud bang.
As the white smoke dissipated, Mu Fan could clearly see two people less than three hundred ters away, quickly reloading, preparing for a third shot.
Seeing another unsuccessful shooting, these two Star Thieves prepared for an offense. But upon realizing that the cha did not raise its gun to sweep, but charged while holding the Sword and Shield, they exchanged glances, ready to gamble one last ti! Waiting until a hundred ters distance for the last shot!
It was either you die or I perish!
The desperate ntality made these two not move at all and reload on the spot.
“Armor-Piercing Bomb!” “Magnetic Storm Bomb!”
The two warheads with penetration and magnetic storm blinding effects were already loaded into the rockets, both Star Thieves locked the approaching cha within their sights, as constant alarms in the cockpit broadcasted “Locked On!”
“Hehe, die now!” Both pressed the launch button simultaneously, a gust of wind stirred up dust behind them, as a blue and a yellow warhead spiraled toward them. Mu Fan had already intruded within two hundred ters, this distance would be covered in the blink of an eye.
“Evade!” Black’s voice sounded.
Mu Fan’s fingers turned into a blur, rapid tapping on the control panel echoed, counter orders constantly refreshed within the system’s critical value.
Under the Dark Breath state, Mu Fan’s precise dozens of four-key synchronous actions held no pause, all in one go!
APM of 373!
This ti, the APM counter wasn’t manipulated, but Mu Fan had no ti to notice. His entire attention was focused on the console and battle screen before him.
Two missiles were approaching, about to hit! But soon, the smiles on the faces of the two Star Thieves froze.
Impossible!
They couldn’t believe it; the seemingly clumsy Sword and Shield cha, didn’t even have extra defensive maneuvers for its upper body. Its bizarre steps, continuously changing directions four tis unpredictably, followed by a perfect sidestep advance, caused the two missiles to separate on both sides and fly straight past, exploding with a bang, and with the blue magnetic storm electric net and the detonation of the armor-piercing bullet, the dozen or so Star Thieves on the street Mu Fan passed were dead beyond death.
Alarm cleared, distance forty ters!
Mu Fan’s eyes turned cold, the heavy sword in RX-16’s right hand changed to a reverse grip. Not sure if it was a habit from his own fighting style, Mu Fan, accustod to daggers, always preferred reverse slashing.
It was no exception now on the cha. Accompanied by a tooth-numbing chanical torque sound, the great sword, riddled with overlapping combat marks, paralleled the ground. The speed from RX-16’s consistent 100% power output hadn’t decreased one bit. Mu Fan executed another three sets of four-key synchronous actions, the cha still advanced bizarrely, but the great sword in hand started slicing through the air.
Right foot stepped out, sharp turn! The great sword drew a white arc as the cha abruptly stopped and spun during its sprint.
Turning imagined movents into reality, but simultaneously, in the cockpit, Mu Fan felt a massive sense of montum followed by a dull pressure on his chest. But the youth’s steely muscles bore this set of powerful acceleration and abrupt stop thrust.
Sprint Zigzag Slash!
A mist of blood exploded on the roof, blood spattered on the cha’s heavy sword! Both were instantly dismbered!
The Star Thieves, randomly shooting around, witnessing such a grueso scene, fled in all directions. What a joke; fighting a cha with bare bodies, you must be out of your mind. This cha was definitely being piloted by an expert from the military!
“Military cha spotted advancing rapidly in the northwest city district!”
