Chapter 79

Wang Zheng chose the War God No.1.

At this moment, his opponent also chose the War God No.1.

This stunned both commentators, Xiao Lu and Xiao Mo looked at each other, "This... seems a bit... over the top."

Xiao Mi shrugged helplessly. After witnessing the Skeleton's previous performance, no one believed that the War God No.1 could defeat the Skeleton. His understanding of the War God No.1 had reached a level of mastery.

Although the Magic Bird was powerful, these high-level players all relied on their skilled mobile suits to achieve their records. Changing to a different mech, an expert could instantly become a novice.

One could say that the mobile suits dominated seventy percent of the victory rate.

Facing such a battle, the Magic Bird's choice of the War God No.1 was far from wise.

The comment section was filled with disappointment and skepticism, but Li Er clearly didn't care at all.

Resurrection Island.

War God No.1 vs. War God No.1.

In the CT monitoring room, Soren also felt somewhat helpless. This was something he couldn't control. Many players were very proud and unwilling to take such an advantage, but in this situation, it would definitely be a one-sided match.

On the screen, the data didn't exceed the previous match's trend. Many viewers would only decide whether to pay for the live broadcast after the Magic Bird chose the mech.

The result was that the Magic Bird chose the War God No.1. This...

Two mobile suits descended from the sky. For CT, Li Er was not unfamiliar with it; he had played it before, but it was too unchallenging.

Wang Zheng had never used the War God No.1 before, and this was his first time. For him, any type of mech was the same.

Of course, before the battle, he still first understood the performance of this primitive mech.

"Oh, the Magic Bird moved first. Everyone, guess how long it will take for the Skeleton to end the battle?"

Xiao Mo was full of confidence. She was already a member and fan of the Skeleton Corps.

Winning was the top priority, and excitement came second.

Xiao Lu was frustrated, "This idiot, after the match, I'm going to his section and bash him hard!"

On the screen, the War God No.1 was moving its arms and legs, and the alloy knife and laser gun were also pulled out, moving very amateurishly.

Below, the noise was intense. What was the Magic Bird doing? This was a rhythm of kneeling.

But Wang Zheng quietly watched his opponent move, and the opponent's attention remained on him.

This time, it might be interesting.

The Magic Bird finished moving, and with a clank, the two War God No.1s almost simultaneously moved, taking large steps toward each other.

At this moment, no one realized what this battle would bring.

Boom...

The titanium knives clashed fiercely.

Boom...

Sparks flew, and almost simultaneously, the two War God No.1s made a creaking mechanical sound. The huge recoil made the mechs lean back, but almost identical engine braking forced them to resist the lean, with a difference of less than 0.01 seconds, which was completely indistinguishable to the naked eye.

The titanium knives moved simultaneously, and a flurry of knife shadows... it was the Magic Bird!

He actually took the initiative!

The Skeleton wasn't slow either. The two didn't defend but launched a preemptive attack. In the blink of an eye, dozens of strikes had been made, and people could only see a series of knife shadows and sparks.

The Skeleton's War God No.1 had already kicked out, and the Magic Bird's War God No.1 took a step forward, directly blocking it. Although it was hit, the force was not significant, and at the same time, a punch was thrown.

The titanium knives also clashed.

Bang bang bang...

The two War God No.1s staggered back three steps before stabilizing.

The entire venue was silent, and Xiao Lu's mouth was wide open. She subconsciously flipped through the data in her hand, "When did the Magic Bird become an expert in close combat?"

"Isn't he a sniper?"

"Damn!"

On the battlefield, the two mobile suits didn't stop. The Skeleton took the initiative to attack. Once the Skeleton God attacked, the opponent could only defend.

Arc step!

A high-speed movement with a sudden change in angle, using inertia, a fierce slash was made.

But the Magic Bird's War God No.1 didn't evade. The mech made a strange diagonal turn and countered with a backhand slash.

Boom...

The arc step attack was easily countered. Not only was it countered, but this backhand slash had a sense of using the opponent's force against them, causing the Skeleton's War God No.1 to lose balance and be in a very disadvantageous position.

The Magic Bird's War God No.1, with the engine roaring, made a low, sliding move, using the shortest time and distance to collide with the Skeleton.

This wasn't to inflict damage but to disrupt balance.

It was completely impossible to defend. The War God No.1 was hit, and Wang Zheng had extremely high requirements for balance, but this was the first time he encountered such an opponent, almost at the same level, too refined.

In such a situation, a typical opponent would pursue maximum damage, giving Wang Zheng the opportunity to act, but this Magic Bird didn't.

Boom...

The War God No.1 lost balance, and at this moment, the Magic Bird's thrust was aimed at the cockpit.

The terrifying continuity, and in a series of actions, all were anaerobic, while also enduring gravitational acceleration, still able to make a powerful attack.

This body...

For Li Er... it was very easy.

The butler stood quietly outside, watching. Perfect, this was Li Er's only requirement.

No one could win against him.

Whether in reality or in CT.

The perfection of the body, plus the perfection of the skills, could create a god.

This strike was a direct kill.

The little partners were stunned. Where did this god come from, able to suppress in close combat??

This was indeed an unavoidable strike. The only thing the Skeleton could do was to sidestep and avoid the vital points.

However, a miraculous scene appeared.

The Skeleton's War God No.1 didn't defend or attack but made a strong side step, opening an angle, and used its arm to clamp the titanium knife.

At the same time, it moved back with the opponent, and then the left fist struck out.

This punch hit the Magic Bird's mobile suit's head solidly.

The Magic Bird, hit by the punch, suddenly drew the knife and kicked out, hitting the Skeleton's mobile suit's chest.

Boom...

The two mobile suits were thrown out.

The Magic Bird's War God No.1 retreated three steps and stabilized, while the Skeleton's War God No.1 made a spin, pushed the ground with one hand to dissipate the force, and stood up.

The two had simply swapped positions.

The audience area was filled with cheers. This was a battle between experts!

Xiao Lu and Xiao Mo looked at each other, "This is definitely not the Magic Bird!"

"I've commented on the Magic Bird's matches. He's a long-range sniper, and his close combat skills are average."

"I've seen him forced into close combat, and he doesn't even have one-tenth of this level."

"Damn, with his long-range skills and such close combat abilities, he would be a figure in the Throne!"

Such an opening made many players who were on the fence join in. This seemed to be a promising sign. In an equal environment, he was not at a disadvantage at all. This was the rhythm of becoming a god.

It seemed that the Skeleton's performance had finally attracted a true expert.

Li Er also smiled, not expecting such a response from the opponent. This was indeed rare.

Soren bit his lip, "Execute the BT plan!"

"Yes!"

The staff were very excited and immediately entered the operation phase.

Resurrection Island suddenly shook violently, and the sky turned a fiery red, as if countless red dots were coming.

"Is this fireworks?"

"Is this a mutation?"

In the battle maps chosen by the players, some maps were unstable, occasionally experiencing earthquakes, etc. Some outer planets were geologically active, but the solar system was generally stable.

However, this Resurrection Island map was indeed a mutation map, but it was very rare.

Once a mutation occurred, the difficulty of the entire battle would be completely different. This was a situation that ordinary players could not handle.

Li Er's lips curled into a slight sneer. This was just a gimmick to create some excitement.

The ground was constantly cracking, and deep red lava could be seen. In the air, fiery meteorites were falling. Being hit directly, even the War God No.1 would likely lose its combat ability.

In the CT operation hall, the atmosphere was very tense, as today was a special day.

Everyone looked at Soren, whose palms were sweating. He was also unsure of the results of this decision, but it was better to take the initiative than to be passive.

Soren nodded, "Start!"

All viewers received a prompt in their field of vision—simulation system activated.

This meant that the damage caused by the harsh environment would be the same, and at the same time, the weight of high-difficulty actions would increase by fifty percent.

This was equivalent to doubling the original operation difficulty.

All viewers were stunned. Was this even playable?

It was important to note that in general mech battles, environmental effects were very subtle, especially in terms of damage, which was minimized to highlight the players' control of the mechs. After all, this wasn't a real battle.

However, recently, many experts had been saying that the difficulty was too low, lacking realism and operational feel. In some star systems of CT, this system had already been introduced, but in the solar system, this was the first time it was used.

The first use was in such an important match!

Soren stared intently at the big screen, believing that the Skeleton could definitely do it!

A one-minute invincibility period was given to the two players to adapt to the environment.

Wang Zheng could feel the shaking around him becoming more intense, and the control difficulty of the mech suddenly increased. The same was true for Li Er on the other side.

The countless fiery meteorites around them had already raised the temperature inside the mechs.

But no matter how much the surroundings shook, the two War God No.1s maintained their balance.

The staff were very nervous. What if... what if the Skeleton couldn't adapt to this situation?

Soren was extremely excited. This decision was sudden, but the two could use the War God No.1 to such a degree, so they definitely weren't unknowns.

No one in the solar system had used it yet, and it was said that Mars was preparing to try it. He would be the first to take the plunge.

What would be the reaction?

Inside the mech, Wang Zheng smiled, and on the other side, Li Er's lips also curved.

This was more like it!

The invincibility state ended, and the two mobile suits instantly burst into action!
