Player 1

Chapter 40 Level 3(8)
Edge chose the RX-78-2 Gundam, the ancestor model of the Gundam series. The legendary driver Amuro Ray drove it to make great achievements during the One Year War. (Even though I know Edge is actually a girl, I decided to stick with "he" since her character in the game is male.)
Soto was a head taller than the two of them, and he chose the brave Lei Ting.This huge red and blue mech is the main character in the animation "Brave Retin" series. It holds a golden bow in one hand and a huge nail shield in the other.

Lie Parton skimmed over the top of the shield, whizzed past the battleship and the player group with a huge roar, and hovered over the point in front of the three mechs.I adjusted Ray Parton's position, and then the engine stopped, and it fell straight to the ground.Smoke and dust filled the air after the appalling sound of steel crashing, and Lie Parton slowly returned to a straight standing posture from kneeling on one knee and bending forward.The cheers were like a tsunami, coming from the loudspeaker, repeating my name: Pa-si-far!Per-se-far!
After the cheers faded, I turned to my companions.

"Beautiful landing, wonderful performance," Artemis said, "Did you come late on purpose so that you could have a performance?"

"I swear, it's not my fault," I tried to explain, "the star gate is blocked."

Edge nodded the mech's head, "Every teleportation point on this planet is full," he pointed at the surrounding crowd with his Gundam palm, "It's like a dream, I've never seen so many people, So many vehicles crammed into one place."

"I haven't seen it either." Artemis said, "It's incredible that the GSS server can survive without delay."

I stared at the sea of ​​people around me for a long time, then turned my gaze back to the castle.Thousands of spaceships and players are attacking the shield. From time to time, fireballs, lasers, and missiles streak across the sky, but none of them can cause real damage to the shield.Within the shield, thousands of heavily armed "sixth men" quietly formed a square formation, forming a circle around the castle.There are rows of floating tanks and warships above their heads.At any other time, the army of the "Sixth Man" would be a fearsome and invincible enemy, but now they are at a disadvantage compared with the endless crowd outside.

"Hey, Parsifal," Soto's gigantic mech turned to me, "The show's on, old man, and we're going to be screwed if this shield doesn't explode automatically."

"Han will take care of it," Edge said, quoting a Star Wars line. "We'll give him more time!"

I smiled and patted the left wrist with the right hand of the mecha, showing the time, "Edge is right, there are still six minutes before noon..."

My words were interrupted by shouts from the crowd.Right in front of us, the gate of Anola Castle opened slowly, and a person walked out slowly from inside.

sorrento.

Smiling at the crowd's scolding, Sorrento waved to the "Sixth Man" army in front of the castle, telling them to get out of the way.Sorrento came between them, facing us with only a few dozen yards between them.Then, more than a dozen "sixth people" walked out of the castle and stood on both sides of Sorrento, keeping a considerable distance between them.

"I have a bad feeling." Artemis murmured.

"Hey," Edge said softly, "me too."

Sorrento glanced around, then smiled at us.His voice echoed through the shields on the battleship and the speakers on the levitating tanks, resounding throughout the area.At this time, there were many reporters and cameras present, and he knew very well that his speech would be broadcast live worldwide.

"Welcome to Anola Castle," Sorrento said, "I've been looking forward to your visit." He made a sweeping gesture, "I have to say, it's really beyond me that there are so many people here. It was unexpected. But everything is clear, no matter how hard you try, no one can pass through this shield."

His words could only be replaced by threatening roars from the crowd. I waited for a while, raised the two mechanical hands of the mecha, signaled the crowd to be quiet, and then turned on the public channel, "You are wrong, Sorrento," I said, "We Will come in, all of us."

A cry rang out from the assembled hunters.Sorrento didn't wait for the sound to stop. "Welcome to try." With a smile on his face, he took out something from the inventory and placed it on the ground in front of him.The moment I zoomed out with the lens, I felt my muscles stiffen.The toy mecha was a mechanical dinosaur with cannons on its shoulders.It's in a turn-of-the-century Japanese monster movie that I've seen several times.

Mechanical Godzilla [140].

"Dragon!" Sorrento ordered loudly.His mecha immediately stretched out, reaching the height of Anola Castle, at least twice the height of our four "super" robots.The lizard's iron head nearly brushed the top of the shield.

Silence fell, and thousands of hunters looked terrified. They knew the metal behemoth, they knew it was nearly indestructible.

Sorrento opened the hatch at the foot of the Drag-Ride and walked in. In a short while, the eyes of this giant beast turned from dark to bright yellow. It raised its head back and let out a roar.

At the same time, the "sixth people" around him also activated their own mechas, including five huge mechanical lions that can be combined into a king of beasts, and the other five are from Macross and EVA.

"Damn." I heard Artemis and Edge whispering at the same time.

"Come on!" Sorrento shouted, his cry echoing across the earth.

Many hunters in the front row took a step back subconsciously, and some even turned around and ran away, but I still had Edge, Soto, and Artemis by my side.

The screen time shows that there is less than 1 minute left before noon.I pressed a button on the console, and Leigh Parton drew his sword.

I didn't see how it happened with my own eyes, but I can simulate it completely in my head:
There is a large armory outside Annola Castle, full of weapons, ammunition, vehicle equipment, and supply robots, and the "Sixth Man" teleported them there before activating Oswald's ball-shield Also protect it.Some supply droids were placed outside the armory, and due to the lack of imagination of the supply designers, they all looked like the Thunderbolt 141[[-]].

At noon, the supply robot SD-03 disengaged from the charging valve by itself, turned its tracks, ran over the potholed sandy surface, and headed for the gate of the armory.There are two mechanical sentries in front of the library gate. When they scanned the information of the supply robot, they verified the supply application I submitted on the "Sixth Man" intranet.Since then, SD-03 has entered the armory.It made its way through rows of gear—enchanted swords, shields, power armor, plasma rifles, and countless other weapons—and finally stopped in front of five octahedral contraptions, each the size of a football, with There are lines of digital verification codes. SD-03 found the one that matched my command, and performed a series of operations on the panel according to my preset.After completing these actions, the dim light on the device turns from green to red.Then SD-03 took it into his arms and left the armory.

This device is actually a large anti-matter bomb, which is so powerful that it can blow up my preset target tens of thousands of times.Leaving the armory, SD-03 climbed up the stairs built by the "Sixth Man" on the outer wall of the castle.Because of the astonishingly high level of authority, it passed a series of inspections safely, arrived at the top of the castle, and sailed to the huge observation platform.

Perhaps at this time SD-03 has attracted the curious eyes of several "Sixth Man" guards on the platform.I don't know that, though, and besides, even if they fired at the robot, it would be too late.

SD-03 continued to move towards the center of the platform, where the sixth man high-ranking mage charged the Celestial Shield.

Then, SD-03 executed the last command line I typed two days ago, and it held the bomb high and detonated it.

The explosion destroyed the supply droid, the "Sixth Man" guards on the platform, even the platform itself, and, of course, the mage.In the instant of his death, the ball of Oswald fell.

0035
The strong flash left an afterimage on my retina, and when the light faded, I turned my eyes to the castle again.Shields are gone.Now, the only thing separating the "sixth man" from the army of hunters is the rising and tumbling air.

Time seemed to stop for about five full seconds, everyone stood still, and then suddenly there was an explosion.

Sitting alone in the cockpit, I cheered silently, this plan has really succeeded, it is unbelievable!But now is not the time to celebrate, as I am in the middle of the biggest battle in Oasis history.

I don't know what will happen next. One out of ten hunters is willing to fight, which is beyond my expectations, but at this moment, it is obvious that everyone is ready to fight.There was a roar behind me, and crowds rushed towards the "sixth man" in front. I was shocked by such fearlessness. After all, most of the chargers would die in battle, and they knew it very well.

The two floods slammed together fiercely, and the battlefield stretched from the ground to the sky. This chaotic scene looked thrilling. Imagine the scene of a hornet's nest colliding with a wasp's nest and falling into the anthill together. It's a bit like that now, but The energy level needs to be magnified tens of millions of times.

Artemis, Edge, Soto and I stood in the eye of the storm. At first, I was worried about hurting the crowd of hunters below and didn't dare to act rashly, but Sorrento didn't wait for the people in front of him to give way to him. He stepped right through a crowd of people (including his own) coming at us, leaving a deep hole in the planet's surface with every step he took.

"Ahhh," I saw Soto change into a defensive stance, "here he comes."

The "Sixth Man"'s mecha is under fire from all directions.Because he was driving the largest mech on the battlefield, Sorrento suffered the most ferocious attacks, but it seemed that there were no weapons that could inflict effective damage on him, be it shells or fireballs, even arcane missiles could only It left small burn marks on its shell.The other "Sixth Man" mechas were quickly submerged in the crowd (they didn't even have a chance to merge), while Sorrento remained unscathed, not to mention light weapons, and even from dozens of spaceships. The bombardment of the main artillery also failed to slow down his forward speed by half a minute.

"Here we come!" Edge yelled, "It's like "Red Dawn" [142]!" He raised his beam rifle and fired at the opposite side. Two red beams lit up from the chest, sweeping straight towards Sorrento.Before it was too late, I also threw Repparton's golden boomerang.

We all hit MechaGodzilla, but only Artemis's attack seemed to have any effect, the beam smashed out the Drag-Ride's cannon.But that didn't stop Sorrento.The eyes of Mechanical Godzilla began to emit bright blue light, and then it opened its mouth, and a thick blue laser shot out from it, straight into the ground near us. Wherever the blue light went, all the characters and spaceships were wiped out.The four of us hurriedly ignited the thrusters to evade, and I was almost hit by a direct hit.A second later, the blue light stopped, but Sorrento was still charging forward, but the blue light was no longer in his eyes.This means that the weapon needs to be recharged.

"Looks like we're finally going to fight the boss," Edge joked, as the four of us surrounded Sorrento to prevent him from escaping.

"Look at this guy, guys," I said, "I don't think we've got a chance."

"Zhita," Artemis called, "do you have any good ideas?"

I thought for a while, "I'll lure him away, the three of you take this opportunity to rush to the gate of the castle, how about that?"

"Sounds like that," Soto replied, but instead of flying to the castle, he rushed straight to Sorrento.

"Fuck you!" he growled, "Let me deal with this bastard!"

Edge and Artemis flew off to my right and left, respectively, while I passed over Sorrento's head.Through the monitor screen, I could see that Soto was confronting Sorrento. Their mechs were of different sizes. Soto was like a dragon-slaying warrior who was overwhelmed in front of Sorrento.

"Come on," Edge yelled, "the castle gate is just ahead!"

Seen from a high altitude, the army of the "Sixth Man" has been surrounded by countless hunters, and their battle line has been broken. Hundreds of hunters rushed to the open gate of the castle, but because they did not have the crystal key, they were captured by an invisible force. High walls keep it out.

Edge flew right in front of me, more than 100 feet off the ground, and he ejected from the cockpit of the Gundam. At the same time, he muttered the password, turned the Gundam back into a model, and stuffed it into the backpack.With his flying magic, he glides past the crowd gathered outside the castle gate and disappears inside the castle gate.And a few seconds later, Artemis also used the same method to put away the mecha and entered the castle.

I lowered Lie Parton's height, preparing to sprint low to keep up with them.

"Soto," I yelled, "we're going in! Come on!"

"You guys go first," Soto replied, "I... I'll be right here." For some reason, his tone sounded a bit strange. Tor is hovering above and to the right of Sorrento.And the Drag-Ride was slowly turning around and running towards the castle.If anything, Mechagodzilla lacks mobility, running and attacking rather slowly.

"Soto!" I yelled. "What are you doing? Go away!"

"Leave me alone," Soto said, "the son of a bitch owes me a blood debt."

Before I could answer, Soto rushed towards Sorrento with the huge sword in both hands, the blade slashed on the right side of the Drag-Ride, sending out a series of sparks.To my surprise, he actually did the damage.After the smoke dissipated, only the right shoulder of Mechagodzilla remained.

"Looks like you only have your left hand left, Sorrento!" Soto yelled.Then he fired the thrusters in my direction and rushed to the castle.But Sorrento had already turned his head to look at Soto, and the blue eyes of Mechagodzilla flashed.

"Soto!" I yelled. "Be careful!"

Before the words were finished, the machine dragon fired a laser, which directly pierced through the chest of Soto's mech, and the latter burst into orange flames, and then shattered with a dull explosion.

There was a beep on the local channel, and I kept calling Soto, but there was no response.Then a message flashed in the lower right corner of my field of vision, telling me Soto's name had disappeared from the scoreboard.

he died.

I was stunned in mid-air, completely oblivious to the fact that Sorrento was still firing, and the light swept across the ground and city walls, coming towards me.I finally reacted - but it was too late - and Leppard's entire lower body disappeared in flames.All the sirens turned red and blared wildly.The mecha began to fall downwards with thick smoke.

Fortunately, I escaped this disaster.Just a few seconds before the mech hit the castle, I kicked open the cockpit door and jumped out, while a group of unlucky people below died on the spot because of the accident.

Before landing, I activated my jet boots, then quickly adjusted the operation mode, and landed in front of the castle, with the burning wreckage of Repparton behind me.As soon as I landed, there was a shadow covering the surroundings, and I turned around to see Sorrento's mech leaping into the air.His huge raised left foot was about to trample me into a pulp.

I took three steps and jumped up on my jet boots, narrowly avoiding the falling giant feet.Accompanied by a muffled laugh, the metal behemoth screamed again.Sorrento was laughing.

I turned off the jet boots, curled up and rolled on the ground a few times for cushioning, and stood up.The metal lizard's eyes hadn't sparkled yet—yet, which meant I could use the jetboots again right away to get into the castle before Sorrento opened fire.He couldn't keep up with me - unless he got off the big monster himself.

I could hear the shouts of Artemis and Edge, already inside, waiting for me in front of the third door.

All I had to do was rush into the castle, and the three of us could open the third door before Sorrento caught up.I have no doubts about that.
