Technology: Breaking the Global Monopoly

Chapter 2412: War Begins (4K)

Xu Xiu hid under the sand and reduced the core power of his mecha to 5%, which ensured that power could be output at the first time while minimizing the possibility of exposure.

There was no trace of arrogance in his eyes, only the caution of a hunter.

During these few months of training, he has realized that there are always people better than you.

Among that group of new generation players, some were able to possess sharper mecha combat instincts than many veteran players after just one month of training. Some veteran players were even beaten by newcomers who had been training for more than a month, and they only lost during the simulated training.

In addition, some newcomers have obvious tendencies to hide their weaknesses during training, which also needs to be guarded against.

call……

The ecological simulation system blew up yellow sand on the site.

40 square meters is about the size of 62 standard football fields. The huge venue also makes the yellow sand look like a mist covering the sky.

Moreover, this special yellow sand contains interference materials deliberately added by engineers, which can prevent the radar scanning components of the participating mechas from functioning properly.

Zhou Hai reduced the core power of his mecha to 7% and forced himself to take a deep breath.

He is a new player selected this year and has passed multiple rounds of selection to be able to appear at today's competition venue. Although due to system limitations, he cannot see the situation in the audience seats not far away clearly, he knows clearly that his relatives must be in a certain area hoping that he can perform best.

But just as his mind wandered for a moment, Zhou Long saw the sand in the sand pile two hundred meters away from him tremble against the wind direction.

Seeing this, Zhou Long immediately held his breath and reduced his core power to 5%.

Although he knew that the "annihilation" score was high, the ranking points for surviving to the end were also not low. It was just the beginning, and Zhou Long really didn't want to have any thoughts of showing up to fight.

Almost instantly, yellow sand exploded into two clouds of dust under the mecha's steel boots, and an Iron Overlord mecha rushed forward in a brutal posture.

Pierce, a contestant from Great Britain, was lying in the Nerve Cradle with sweat on his palms and back. In his field of vision, the tactical screen in front of him was madly flashing an extremely dangerous red triangle signal - that was the resonant ripple signal caused by the enemy mecha's vibrating long sword tearing through the air.

"Fuck! Fuck! Madman!!!"

After shouting excitedly twice, Pierce realized that he could not escape the pursuit of this Iron Overlord, so he simply chose to turn around, ready to fight with it, and then look for an opportunity to lurk when the yellow sand was filled.

Although the Winged Mecha he was piloting had excellent air combat capabilities, at this critical juncture when the battle had just begun, Pierce knew clearly that once he chose to take off, he would be targeted by the fire control radars of more mechas.

clang!
When the two sharp blades collided for the third time, the hydraulic pipe on the left shoulder of the Winged God Mecha made a hissing sound as if it could not bear the heavy load.

Ivan looked at the Winged God mecha in front of him, which was in extremely poor condition. The blurred lion paint on the chest armor of the other mecha kept rising and falling in his field of vision like a prey mark.

Although no player spoke in the public channel of the battle system at this time, he took the initiative to speak: "You are so unlucky that you ran in front of me and acted like a kitten. If I don't chop you, my eyes will be very uncomfortable..."

Pierce had no time to read the news on the public channel. The modified Winged God mecha he designed was leaping and moving with incredible agility. The small shield covered with sand suddenly tilted forty-five degrees and threw itself into the sand pile beside it.

"burst!"

It was originally intended to be a trap for sneak attackers, but Pierce only wanted to create conditions for himself to escape, so he decisively released the energy of the small shield.

The sandstorm roared past at this moment, and the only sound in the orange and yellow sky and earth was the explosion of the shield.

Just as Pierce increased the core power of the mecha to the maximum, a sword blade suddenly brushed past the edge of his neck, plowing out dazzling purple sparks on the armor plate.

[Protective armor is under attack]

An emergency prompt suddenly popped up on the tactical screen, and Pierce instinctively raised his left arm. The spare shield hidden in his elbow barely blocked the vibrating knife that was coming at him diagonally.

The high-frequency vibrating blade rubbed against the composite armor, producing a sharp scream, and a special burnt smell gradually filled the air.

Although this Winged God Mecha has been modified, the hydraulic system overload alarm will not stop because of the modification.

Just as Pierce was about to take off and escape, he felt a sudden violent vibration in his right arm joint.

At this time, Wang Teng exclaimed in the host channel: "The mechanical knuckles of the British Mad Lion Wing God Mecha were hit by the shield, and the laser sword flew out of his hand and spun into the rock wall 20 meters away!

Is it the end?! Will the British Lion be the first player to be eliminated from this match?
We see that this British player is trying his best to escape, and his core power output has been raised to the maximum! But Ivan, the Russian Bear, has been chasing him closely, and the first kill is worth 10 points! This score may attract many players to snatch it, and he will definitely not let the prey in his hand go -

Oh, what do we see?
White-headed vulture! American player Williams stepped forward and blocked the fatal blow for player Pierce! "

In the chaotic battlefield, the thought "Is this the end?" just popped up in Pierce's mind, but was instantly suppressed by him.

Not far away, Williams threw out his left hand shield. In mid-air, the shield instantly deformed and unfolded, and eight claw-like mechanical fingers clasped the edge of the mecha back shield of the Russian bear player Ivan.

The power core made a humming sound as if it was on the verge of collapse, and Pierce used the inertia of retreating at full speed to escape to another place in a panic.

Two balls of thruster flames instantly exploded in the dust, and a mecha painted with a Gray Wolf paint suddenly appeared. Seeing the emergency situation behind him, Pierce immediately forced himself to change his posture.

But the Gray Wolf Mecha's vibrating long sword had already slipped out of his hand and was deeply inserted into the transmission joint of the Winged God Mecha's left leg.

The alarm sounded three octaves higher in an instant. Pierce staggered and pulled out the weapon that was still vibrating wildly. His metal palm was rubbed red by the high-frequency vibration of the blade.

Soon, he rushed in the direction of the person who offered him a helping hand.

Off the court, Wang Teng was still explaining: "The hydraulic pipe on the left leg of Pierce's mecha is spraying light blue coolant. We can see through the big screen that his tactical screen shows that the remaining energy is only enough to maintain the highest power combat mode for two minutes. In the chaos, Pierce finally chose to join the mecha that just blocked Ivan, the Russian bear player, for him! Oh, that's our American player Williams. His Wing God mecha has a more rugged and bold appearance design than similar Wing God mechas. He even asked engineers to modify the power engine. What he meant was that he would fight to the last moment!
Interestingly, the Russian player Ivan’s Iron Overlord mecha power engine and energy device also have an over-expansion design…”

While Wang Teng was explaining, the sandstorm suddenly weakened.

The sunlight pierced through the dust and illuminated the battlefield.

Williams controlled the mecha's throwing shield to retract, and then, under Pierce's suspicious gaze, he pulled out a dark silver sword from the armor on his back with his right hand.

Williams watched the prey getting closer and closer to him under the influence of huge inertia, and decisively increased the power to 79%, then aimed at the movement trajectory of the Winged God Mecha and threw the sword out.

The Winged Mecha let out its final roar, and Pierce crushed the sand and gravel under his feet. At the critical moment, he grasped the sword with his remaining right arm.

Amid the rain of sparks as metals tore at each other, the steel boots of Williams' Wing God mecha stepped heavily on the damaged knee joint of the mecha in front of it.

He swung his other sword in a perfect horizontal cut.

Before Pierce's tactical screen suddenly went dark, he heard the dull thud of a metal head falling to the ground, as well as curses and screams coming from the communication channel.

"God, you stole my prey!"

"This is the first kill, and you will be my second prey."

"American player Williams got the first kill! 10 points ahead of everyone else!!!"

When the roar of the mecha fell silent, the wreckage of the Winged God mecha with lion paint was slowly rising with smoke under the sunlight.

The cries of vultures could be heard in the distance, and the sword in Williams' hand was still dripping coolant, which looked like some kind of blood that would not coagulate.

In the exclusive viewing room of the VIP area, British ministers and royal nobles voiced their dissatisfaction.

"God! We were supposed to be the best allies! But they annihilated our contestants the first time?!"

"Shameful gambler! A robber who can only hide in the sewers! We still have contestants! Jack Thomas and Hunter, they must defeat this mecha from America!"

"The first mecha to be eliminated from the first Global Mecha Challenge was actually our contestant mecha!? I don't understand!"

In the stands outside the auditorium and in the public chat channel, a large group of British and American audiences had already started a verbal confrontation.

The channel was filled with words like Fak and other vile and dirty Zaun language, and the reminder "Viewers, please be mindful of your words and actions" never disappeared.

In the arena of the Sky Dome Battle Center, the dark red painted outer armor of the Russian player Ivan the Bear was dripping with condensation, the foldable particle wings on the back of the American Williams Wing God mecha were vibrating in the air pressure, and the vector thruster nozzles on the legs that were breaking through the air were emitting a faint blue light.

Wang Teng's commentary outside the venue was also very forward-looking: "It is obvious that the player who got the first kill did not intend to fight with this Iron Overlord here, and he has decided to retreat strategically.

However, once the battle begins, as the only exposed battle area in the entire venue, I believe that other players will definitely not let go of this hard-won opportunity. Also, please pay attention. In five minutes, our Sky Dome Battle Center will begin to shrink for the first time. At that time, the mechas outside the circle will have their energy reserves locked by 1% per second. This means that the mechas outside the circle can only last for more than seconds at most, and must enter the circle, otherwise they will be judged as failures and exit the field because of zero power energy!"

Since they are going to fight, how could the engineers let the players stay dormant?
With the stealth performance of the mechas modified by some contestants, they might be able to survive in some corners until the end.

Ivan looked at the Winged God Mecha not far away. Instead of increasing the core power, he chose to extend the armor parts behind him, extending three special alloy fixing devices and inserting them deeply into the yellow sand.

At the same time, the energy cannon on the shoulder of the Iron Monger mecha also lit up the charging prompt light.

"I didn't expect that this heavy mecha didn't completely give up long-range weapons. I can imagine how terrible the sniper attack will be for Williams' Wing God mecha the moment the shoulder rail gun finishes charging!"

The moment Wang Teng finished speaking, three purple-red light beams pierced through the air and accurately hit the reactive armor on the left shoulder of the Winged God Mecha.

At the moment of the explosion, a silver-white fuselage of Pokong suddenly emerged from the dust. When Wing God deployed its shield to block Iron Overlord's second wave of attack, Pokong had already swooped down from the sky, and its high-frequency vibrating dagger pierced through the particle ejection port on the right wing of Wing God, and the coolant was instantly thrown out.

"Initiate overload protocol!!!"

When making this decision, Williams' nerves were already throbbing.

At this moment, several hexagonal heat dissipation holes suddenly appeared on the chest and back armor of the Winged God mecha he was controlling, and the armor plates that were burned red by the railgun overload were directly ejected.

A piece of defensive armor hit the Sky-Breaking Breastplate, creating spider-web cracks on the special ceramic layer.

Afterwards, the Winged Mecha used the greatly increased power to complete an extreme backflip, and a long sword shot out cut a crack on Iron Overlord's shoulder, and disappeared in the dust not far away.

But just when Williams thought he had a chance to escape, the air-breaking mecha appeared behind him like a shadow, and in an instant it drew out its silver gun, piercing through the power core in his chest and the engine that was in high-power overload.

boom!
The sound of the energy explosion stirred up a huge sandstorm. Even though the players who had been observing from a distance turned their radar and cameras to maximum power, they could only barely see blurry images.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the silver spear of the Sky-Breaking Mech had already embedded in the crack of Iron Overlord's breastplate not far away, and the dagger was only 3 centimeters away from its power reactor.

The arena rang with three electronic bells, and the holographic screen displayed the final data: Alex Pokong (USA) ranked first in the standings! Williams (USA) ranked second.

The audience erupted in deafening roars.

No one expected that the poisonous snake hidden in the sand would be so cruel and kill his fellow country's player and another Russian bear player in a flash.

"Oh my goodness, they're doing this to their own family, and it's easy for them to do it. How could they turn it into this in just a few seconds?"
