70 -70: Mistake
Chen Tong also started up the Flame Knight soon after.
“Shut down all the smart assist systems.”
Su Ming instructed Chen Tong.
“Understood.”
Chen Tong nodded in response.
“Let’s go!”
Su Ming led Chen Tong running towards the closest exit.
…
Before long, Su Ming and Chen Tong, controlling their mechas, emerged from the large passageway.
At that moment, the sound of massive explosions came continuously from a distance.
“Over there!”
Su Ming headed towards the combat zone with Chen Tong.
They quickly arrived at the outskirts of the engagement area.
At that time, Lin Chuyu and Li Fubai were struggling in a fight with the Gun Knight, both of them barely holding on.
Meanwhile, not far away on the ground lay three Flame Knights that had been blasted apart.
As for Wu Bo and the others, they were being surrounded and attacked by groups of Iron Knights and mechanical spiders.
Of their five Flame Knights, two were down, and the condition of the remaining three was also terrible, covered in scars all over.
“Ha ha, they’re finally getting theirs today!”
Seeing Li Fubai and his group being beaten so badly, Chen Tong felt a rush of exhilaration, all his frustration swept away.
Su Ming narrowed his eyes and said,
“Chen Tong, it’s our turn to go in.”
“Aren’t we going to wait for them to die off before we go in?”
Chen Tong asked, puzzled.
“I’m not confident that we can aggressively take out that Gun Knight while it’s under siege by so many Iron Knights.
And Chuyu can’t hold on much longer; we can’t just ignore her.”
Su Ming briefly explained.
“Hmph, he’s getting off easy.”
Although Chen Tong was very displeased, he agreed nonetheless.
…
In the center of the combat zone.
The Gun Knight deftly twirled the red metal long spear in its hand, its sharp blade slashing towards Lin Chuyu.
Lin Chuyu controlled her Flame Knight to lean back.
With a piercing whooshing sound, the red metal long spear swept past the face of the Flame Knight.
When the Gun Knight’s strike missed, it quickly spun around and kicked at Lin Chuyu.
Lin Chuyu hastily lifted the mecha’s mechanical arm to block!
Bang!
The entire mecha was kicked away heavily.
Li Fubai seized the opportunity, powering up and rushing in from behind at high speed, swinging the red alloy blade in his hand towards the Gun Knight.
At that moment, the Gun Knight gracefully spun its body again, lifting the red metal long spear to block.
Crack!
With sparks flying in all directions, Li Fubai’s attack was firmly blocked.
The Gun Knight’s electronic eyes flashed red as it pressed the long spear back against the slashing red alloy blade.
Creak~
The arm joints of Li Fubai’s Flame Knight creaked and emitted a grating, twisted sound.
“Ah!”
Li Fubai could only desperately increase the power output to maximum, but still couldn’t hold on, and the entire mecha slid backward.
Meanwhile, Lin Chuyu, who had been kicked away, struggled to control the mecha to lift its head and look towards the battle where Li Fubai was.
Seeing Li Fubai about to lose his hold, she strained to pull the control stick, controlling the damaged Flame Knight to struggle and rise.
Just then, a red silhouette quickly entered the combat zone, darting straight towards the back of the Gun Knight.
Lin Chuyu was also taken aback, her face showing shock as she exclaimed,
“The Gun Knight?”
Su Ming instantly maneuvered behind the Gun Knight, raising the red metal long spear in his hand and thrusting it forward with all his might!
The Gun Knight that was suppressing Li Fubai, with its electronic eyes flashing red, keenly felt the danger.
It instantly powered up to its maximum, pointed its toes to the ground, and evaded with an extreme sidestep.
Li Fubai was startled, facing a brand-new Gun Knight charging directly at him, with the red metal long spear ferociously attacking.
In an instant, his handsome face showed shock and fear, and he yelled in desperation.
“No!”
He couldn’t understand why a second Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knight had appeared.
At this moment, far from stopping forcibly, Su Ming powered up to the fullest and fiercely speared Li Fubai.
Crack!
The red metal long spear penetrated the cockpit, piercing through Li Fubai’s body.
Li Fubai suddenly felt the world turn black and white, and he plummeted into endless darkness.
Lin Chuyu, witnessing this scene, was so astonished that he was speechless.
Li Fubai had been killed by the abruptly appearing Gun Knight.
Wu Bo and the others turned their heads upon seeing the sudden change of events and were extremely panicked.
At this time, Chen Tong, piloting the Flame Knight, rushed to Su Ming’s side.
Seeing Su Ming spear Li Fubai with one thrust, he was dumbfounded and asked worriedly.
“Su Ming, why did you kill him?
Didn’t you say that we weren’t allowed to attack our teammates?”
As Chen Tong spoke, Lin Chuyu and others were even more surprised, realizing that it was Su Ming piloting this Third Generation Mecha.
Su Ming calmly withdrew the red metal long spear and explained indifferently.
“Sorry, my mistake.
It’s my first time controlling a Third Generation Machine; I couldn’t properly manage the strength.”
After hearing Su Ming’s words, Chen Tong anxiously said.
“Ah, I knew that Third Generation Mecha are difficult to control.
I hope the examiner won’t blame you for the mistake?”
“Let’s not talk about this for now, focus on dealing with the enemy.”
Su Ming said as he maneuvered the Gun Knight, the metal long spear flowing smoothly in his hands, he pointed it imposingly at the AI-controlled Gun Knight.
Chen Tong watched Su Ming’s proficient spear maneuvers, completely bewildered and at a loss for words.
This is called poor control on the first attempt?
That spearplay is soaring to incredible heights.
“Provide me with long-range fire support!”
Su Ming briefly instructed Chen Tong, then with full power, he swiftly struck at the Gun Knight like a whirlwind.
Facing the assault by Su Ming, the Gun Knight’s control screen continuously flashed alerts.
“Warning: Target is extremely dangerous!”
“Prompt: Activate combat mode!”
…
In an instant, the Gun Knight also activated its full power, rushing forward to meet Su Ming.
Both simultaneously swung their red long spears at each other.
Clang~
The two long spears collided, sending a blast of air in every direction.
Zzz~
Su Ming swiftly retracted the red long spear, sparks flying from the friction, and then with a twist of the mecha, he swung the spear back in a sweeping motion.
The Gun Knight stomped hard on the ground, jumping backward to create distance.
Seeing this, Su Ming’s gaze sharpened.
His hands quickly keyed in a string of commands, pulling the control stick and pushing the thrust lever all the way.
The whole mecha burst forth like a wild beast, leaping up with an overpowering spear thrust toward the Gun Knight.
The Gun Knight blocked horizontally with both hands wielding the spear!
Boom!
The immense force caused the Gun Knight’s body to bend sharply, and the ground shattered in an instant.
“Beautiful!”
Excitedly, Chen Tong maneuvered the Flame Knight, lifting his left concealed Beam Cannon and firing at the pressured Gun Knight!
Lin Chuyu, upon seeing this, also maneuvered the mecha, firing at long range toward the Gun Knight.
Bang bang~
The barrage of bullets exploded on the Gun Knight’s body, causing it to shudder violently.
However, the Gun Knight did not sit idly by; its electronic eyes flashed red again, unleashing powerful force to force Su Ming’s long spear aside, and then counterattacking with a sweeping blow.
Su Ming swiftly retreated to avoid the blow.
The Gun Knight then lifted its left hand to reveal the concealed Beam Cannon, aiming it at Chen Tong, who was harassing it.
Already a tough opponent, the combined harassment from Chen Tong and Lin Chuyu posed a serious threat to it.
