The Fourth Calamity: People in High Martial Arts, Gods in Games

Chapter 36 Triple Micro Management

Obsidian Martial Arts School, as the sun rises.

"Wu Chang, how are you feeling?"

"How far have you progressed in your studies?"

Zhang Qingwei, who was sitting cross-legged, exhaled a deep breath of white air. He looked at Luo Wushang beside him, and blood trickled down from the corners of his mouth and eyes, but there was a light in his eyes, an extremely scorching flame.

But this somewhat frightening scene did not stop Luo Wushang from repairing the wall. Instead, she repaired the wall with one hand while casually thrusting the other hand out to the other side.

Six loud bangs rang out in the air in an instant.

"This Star Explosion Visualization Technique is amazing. I'm currently at 3% of the beginner level." Luo Wushang glanced at the six finger marks on the wall and said with great satisfaction, "Originally, I could reach the 33rd level of Star Point in the Pilgrimage, and the limit here was only the 5th level. However, this visualization technique has improved my control over my body and reaction speed. Now I can easily reach the 6th level."

"I feel that if I improve a bit more, I should be able to reach the seventh star. At that time, even if I encounter a master who has just entered the sect in the wild, I should be able to fight him."

"You've improved that fast?" Zhang Qingwei was somewhat astonished after hearing this. "We're about the same level as beginners, but you're already at 3% and I'm only at 2%. No way, I'm not going to headquarters to report today."

After saying that, Zhang Qingwei transformed one hand into a blade and slashed at a wall.

Suddenly, a star-shaped pattern formed by three marks appeared on the wall, with a faint crack appearing in the center.

"Only 2% of the beginner level and I've already used the first level of the Wave Blade, that's really amazing." Zhang Qingwei looked at the marks on the wall, feeling incredibly excited.

The Wave Blade was her signature move during her pilgrimage, and it was once on par with Luo Wushang's Star Point. However, the Wave Blade is different from the speed-based Star Point; it is a power-based blade technique. Unlike the Stone Shattering Fist, which doubles one's physical strength, the Wave Blade combines three blades into one through skill, directly doubling its power.

However, ever since the car accident, his body has been unable to react properly, and he has not used the Wave Blade since.

"What are you doing?" Lin Qi looked at the two who were practicing in front of the wall early in the morning and said with a somewhat ugly expression, "I sent you here to repair the martial arts school, not to damage the walls. Each of you will be fined two hundred points, and you must repair ten walls today as compensation, or you will be expelled from the martial arts school."

As Lin Qi spoke, the two who were initially excited almost burst into tears.

They would rather Lin Qi punish them tenfold.

Earning points in the High Martial Arts Tour is too difficult. Even if they work hard all day, they can only earn a little over a hundred points. Two hundred points at once puts them two days away from getting weapons.

Seeing that the two of them didn't say anything and obediently went to repair the wall, Lin Qi's expression improved slightly.

"These players are getting stronger and stronger. The martial arts school can't withstand their antics at all. After the school is repaired, there will be even more players. I can't keep an eye on them all. It seems that it's necessary to establish some new rules." Lin Qi glanced at the wall that had been cracked by the two of them and sighed inwardly.

What was originally just a theoretical visualization technique was actually mastered, and not just by one person, but by three. With this Star Explosion visualization technique, even though the three of them were only apprentices, they had the strength to challenge a newly entered martial arts apprentice.

Now the Obsidian Martial Arts School is essentially complete, with four newly-entered martial arts apprentices. In the wild, they are equivalent to a small gang, and they already have the strength to officially do some transportation and trading in the wild.

Blue Star, Kuru City, Storm Shadow Club.

Simulated match battle space.

"This time the map is a randomly selected ruined city, which isn't ideal for sniping," Li Ranxing said in the team chat, looking at the arena. "You four switch to melee mode and try to lure Blue Rose's four members away. I'll deal with Chen Ya!"

"yes!"

Fang Zhen and his three companions, who were randomly assigned to various locations throughout the city, also began to move towards the city center.

Team battles in Mech Continent involve ten players fighting on a single map. The initial positions of the ten players are randomized, and the map will continuously shrink. If players cannot move towards the center as quickly as possible, they will be killed by the map collapsing.

So at the start of the battle, everyone will move towards the center. Whether they encounter teammates or enemies along the way is entirely up to fate.

"Bad luck. I'm in the rear support this time, so I didn't bring any melee weapons. My mech is also a ranged unit." Fang Zhen looked at his ranged weaponry and sighed, "Looks like I'll have to ambush them."

Mech combat in Mech Continent is divided into melee and ranged combat based on weapons. Mechs will also be adjusted to some extent to match melee weapons, such as the mech's agility and speed, to facilitate quick engagement.

Ranged mechs prioritize stability and are somewhat cumbersome, but they can deliver continuous and precise long-range attacks. Consequently, they are at a significant disadvantage once the enemy gets close.

Just as Fang Zhen had traveled less than two kilometers, an explosion came from a building in the distance, followed by the sound of his companion's short-range communication.

"Requesting backup! Requesting backup! Is anyone nearby? I've been spotted by two melee fighters from Blue Rose."

"I'm currently retreating eastward, requesting backup! Requesting backup!"

After a series of short-range communication messages ended, Fang Zhen saw a red melee mech fighting two blue melee mechs on the opposite street.

In the team competitions of Mech Continent, teams are usually divided into two colors: red and blue. In this simulation competition, Storm Shadow is red and Blue Enchantress is blue, so that the enemy and friendly sides can be distinguished at the first moment on the battlefield.

Before Fang Zhen could react, the red mech was cut into several pieces by the two blue mechs and eliminated.

"Hey, not bad luck, there's still one left." Meng Gang, a member of the Blue Roses who was using a battle gun, looked at Fang Zhen, who was facing him on the street, and couldn't help but smile. "Knife, let me have this guy. The battle just now was really boring. The captain said before that my dodging skills were not very good. This ranged attack is perfect for practicing my dodging skills."

"Okay, but hurry up, or the captain's battle might already be starting." The team member named Wang Yidao said indifferently, "Ten seconds! I'll only give you ten seconds to finish the battle."

Although Storm Shadow Team made it into the national tournament, they were only members of the top 32 teams. Compared to the members of these teams who were regulars in the top four, they were always a step behind in terms of skills and reaction time, which is why they didn't care about Storm Shadow.

"Okay! You've counted!"

Without hesitation, Meng Gang immediately controlled the mecha, activated the propulsion acceleration, and charged towards Fang Zhen with a ten-meter-long battle gun. The speed was so fast that it left afterimages, but the mecha itself was always able to skillfully avoid obstacles on the street.

"So fast!"

"To be able to make such precise controls at such a high speed, is this the skill level of the top four in the country?"

In front of the Storm Shadow Club's big screen, a group of Storm Shadow members couldn't help but gasp in amazement as they watched the agile blue melee mechs.

In Mech Continent, mech control is extremely difficult. Unlike other virtual games where you can easily perform various actions like controlling your own body, mech control is like driving a car, only much more complex. Even top-tier masters in Mech Continent would find it difficult to make a mech move like a human.

But Meng Gang has done it now, controlling the mecha like a human. It's unbelievable how he did it.

"Who's piloting that remote-controlled mech? Why aren't they opening fire!"

The latest novel is first published here!

"That mecha looks like Fang Zhen's."

"Fang Zhen is really unlucky. He encountered a melee mech at such close range. Even if he fires, he only has one chance. If he misses, he will die."

The Storm Shadow team members present shook their heads as they looked at the red ranged mech. Normally, ranged mechs would snipe from three kilometers away, but the Blue Enchantress's melee mech was more than a kilometer away, and there was no time to dodge, especially since there were cover objects all around, making it too easy to dodge bullets.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Just as the blue mech wielding its gun was less than 500 meters from the red long-range mech, three gunshots rang out in succession, echoing throughout the street.

"Has Fang Zhen gone mad? He actually fired three shots in a row! Does he really think he can hit the target by firing randomly?"

"They're probably just desperate and trying anything."

Seeing Fang Zhen fire three shots in a row, everyone thought that Fang Zhen had given up. Due to the recoil, long-range sniping is more difficult to control with each shot, and firing three shots in a row is no different from shooting randomly.

"Give up? How boring."

Meng Gang looked at Fang Zhen, who had fired three shots in a row, and shook his head helplessly. He had wanted to practice dodging, but now he could skip it all. Except for the first shot, which required a slight dodge, the other two shots could be completely ignored.

Meng Gang immediately shifted his position, dodging the first bullet aimed at his head.

Just as Meng Gang was about to tear Fang Zhen to pieces, he suddenly noticed another bullet right in front of him.

"grass!"

Meng Gang suddenly raised his hand, intending to use his spear to block the shot from his head.

clang!

A crisp metallic clang rang out.

The gun trembled and was hit directly by the bullet, deviating from its original trajectory.

The next moment, Meng Gang felt everything go black.

"Triple micro management!"

"He can perform triple micro-management? Could he be Li Ranxing?"

Meng Gang woke up from the virtual game pod, staring intently at the large screen in the distance, his heart filled with resentment. The triple micro-operation mecha control technique could only be used by the captain-level experts of the top eight in the country.

He thought he was just going to bully the members of Storm Shadow, but he didn't expect to encounter Li Ranxing in disguise. What's the point of fighting now?

Meng Gang was completely stunned when he saw the battle on the other side of the big screen.

On the other side of the battlefield, Captain Chen Ya was fighting a red mech, and the two were locked in a fierce battle.

"Holy crap! Who is that guy?"
