Silicon Invasion

Mr. Big Wolf was still rambling on in self-admiration, unaware that Luo Rui had already undergone a change. A familiar state quietly took over. Unlike the beginning, Luo Rui didn't resist, didn't panic, and certainly wasn't angry.

At this moment, the Lightning mech was already within 50 meters of the Azure Bird. For mechs over seven meters tall, this distance was just a few steps, especially with its powerful thrusters.

Being so close, it was extremely difficult for the Long-Range Firepower mech to aim. However, the Azure Bird also had thrusters. The thrusters on the upper front chest and the rear leg bends were at full power, with the skirt armor thrusters providing assistance.

The entire mech was in a backward-leaning, hovering state, flying backward. This maneuver, taken alone, wasn't particularly difficult, as it was mainly controlled by the auxiliary AI. It was an essential skill for showing off and looking cool.

But if you wanted to use it in combat, the difficulty increased many times over. When to use it, when to end it, all of this required great attention.

Moreover, many aspects needed to be fine-tuned based on the actual combat situation, just like an unmanned vehicle couldn't run a Formula One race. Too many things required improvisation and human intervention.

Not everyone could pull off fancy moves in combat. It required extremely fast hands and powerful reactions to support it.

And these two things were precisely Luo Rui's strengths. Therefore, he had the qualifications.

"Heh ~"

But Mr. Big Wolf didn't know this. So, when he saw the Azure Bird's posture, he sneered with disdain. This pose looked cool, but it practically eliminated the firing angle of the recoilless rifle, essentially disabling its most powerful weapon.

"Uncle, have you heard the saying, 'Beyond seven steps, the gun is faster; within seven steps, the sword is faster?'"

As a close-combat mech, the Lightning also had a hidden chainsword, which, after hardening, was more than half a meter longer than Swift Rainbow's greatsword, reaching a total length of nearly three and a half meters.

At this moment, it had already drawn this sword. Although the Azure Bird's thrusters were at full power, the front thrusters were only used to adjust the mech's form, and their power was much less than the rear thrusters, so the speed was naturally much slower.

Moreover, the Azure Bird was now unbalanced, with its feet off the ground and its body leaning back. It wouldn't be easy to aim in this posture.

"You're courting death!" Mr. Big Wolf grinned, as if he already saw victory, and charged straight towards the Azure Bird.

However, although he was arrogant, he was still extremely cautious in his heart, his palm resting on the control stick, ready to change his movements and direction at any time.

But the Azure Bird seemed to give up, its muzzle slightly pointing towards the sky. Seeing this, the Lightning's speed increased even more.

Now!

Under Mr. Big Wolf's control, the Lightning mech finally caught up with the Azure Bird, and then, with its right hand wielding the sword, fiercely slashed towards the Azure Bird's lower waist.

Just at this critical moment, the Azure Bird, which was moving backward, suddenly cut off its engine. The mech, losing power, immediately fell towards the ground.

The Azure Bird's actions greatly surprised Mr. Big Wolf. The Azure Bird mech only had thrusters installed in the front and rear, and theoretically, there was no possibility of deceleration or turning. But he didn't expect his opponent to use such a primitive method to decelerate.

In this way, the feedback caused by the sudden braking, even if weakened by the game pod, would be enough to give the pilot a headache.

However, it was too naive to think that he could rely on the speed difference to evade his attack.

The Lightning's front thrusters suddenly opened, and the mech's body shook violently. The two mechs, which were about to pass each other, returned to their original positions, and the giant sword that was swung down was about to strike the Azure Bird.

But at this moment, the Azure Bird, which was about to touch the ground, suddenly extended its left palm and pressed it against the ground.

The arena floor was made of hard granite slabs, so that it could withstand the fighting and bombing of metal monsters weighing tens of tons.

But even so, it couldn't withstand the crushing force brought by the metal giant's own impact, and the alloy-cast metal giant hand was not much stronger than the granite slab at this time.

The moment the two came into contact, the rock cracked, and the metal giant palm also broke from the wrist. With the mech's forward momentum, the fracture quickly spread upward.

The thick forearm first had its outer armor plates crushed and flown away, followed by the semi-buried machine guns hidden under the armor plates, the barrels bent, and the parts scattered. Finally, it was the main metal skeleton.

The forearm was quickly lost, and violent collisions and friction splashed brilliant sparks, and the upper arm gradually fell.

Luo Rui wasn't in very good condition, as Mr. Big Wolf had expected. The violent shaking from the game pod made him a little nauseous, but in this special state, the interference of this negative DEBUFF had been suppressed to the lowest level.

The price of sacrificing the entire left arm naturally couldn't be in vain. With the resistance of the left arm, the Azure Bird not only continued to reduce its impact speed, but also used it as a fulcrum to flip its body.

Silently, the Lightning's alloy longsword had already struck the Azure Bird, but this sword, although it hit, didn't hit the Azure Bird's waist and abdomen as Mr. Big Wolf had imagined.

The latest novels are first published at 6 9 books!

Due to the Azure Bird's final deceleration and flip, this sword actually hit the recoilless rifle, and before the Lightning could continue to exert force, the two mechs had already separated.

This sword only damaged the gun mount and didn't cause much damage to the Azure Bird's mech.

At the same time, due to the Azure Bird's series of actions, this sword was equivalent to the Azure Bird's left arm contacting the ground. Although it didn't break, the huge force transmitted by it still caused the Lightning to lose its balance.

In a hurry, although Mr. Big Wolf tried his best, he still didn't adjust the mech in time. The Lightning somersaulted and fell out, banging and popping, bringing out a trail of sparks, and some armor pieces also flew away and scattered into the distance.

The powerful physical engine simulated reality as much as possible, and the silver metal shone brightly in the sun.

The 16 thrusters on the Lightning mech occasionally emitted particle streams, and finally, after falling more than 50 meters, it stabilized its body at a position 2 meters above the ground.

This operation was almost impossible for humans to complete. It was obviously the self-balancing adjustment of the auxiliary AI. Only a powerful on-board intelligent brain could perform this calculation and complete this adjustment in a very short time.

The constantly shaking picture finally returned to normal at this time, but when he saw the scene fed back by the optical capture instrument, Mr. Big Wolf's face turned pale.

He saw the Azure Bird not far away, having adjusted its posture earlier than him. At this time, it was actually lying prone, holding a gun in one hand and aiming at him. And the intact rocket launcher nest on his right shoulder was already billowing with smoke, and the last two remaining rockets, dragging their smoky tails, had already flown to the middle of the two.

The two sides were only more than fifty meters apart. Even if the rockets' flight speed was very slow and the Lightning's maneuverability was very strong, this distance was not enough for Mr. Big Wolf to react.
