Chapter 56: Popular Mecha
The cheers and applause were thunderous, and the two announcers barely had any time left to speak. Given a battle of this sort, they were at a loss too.
The interview that was planned for Skeleton after the match didn't happen as Skeleton had already left.
Actually, student Wang had waited for a while. But after realizing that no one was paying any attention to him, he got embarrassed and left. He felt that there actually wasn't any questions that were worth asking. Ten thousand dollars for a question, how could such offers be real?
"Brother Xiu! Brother Xiu! Please count me in; I'm the one who was fighting with Skeleton God in that battle. I'm not a noob, please I beg you, let me join."
"I Am Not A Noob" had already made dozens of applications to join, but Chen Xiu and Yao Ailun were already very busy. That damned nouveau riche, where had he gone at this critical period of time?
The moment Rainbow got on the line, his first words were: "It is so bustling; what did I miss?"
"Giant Rainbow! Go take a look, quick! Tornado of Death and Double Control, Skeleton God did the impossible again! Ultimate god penta-kill!
Rainbow was stunned for a moment, then he came a sudden burst of vulgarities. He quickly rushed into the VVIP where the clarity and definition were the best. Although the match was ending, the numbers of spectators were not reducing.
This could be done over and over again.
"Damn it! I've practiced the Tornado of Death for a month only to end up taking a stroll at the starting area!"
"I used to think that this move was only good-looking and that it was always better to be simple and practical on the battlefield. But I did not expect this kind of trick to be used in actual combat. It defies the gods!"
"These kinds of moves are very dangerous, ah! I saw someone use it once; they spun one circle and only ended up making themselves dizzy."
"Double Control, I've heard that to train for it, one is required to practise using chopsticks with both hands."
Wang Zheng retreated, opened his arms, and said, "Lovely little princess, come here and give me a hug."
Aina couldn't contain her feelings of admiration for Wang Zheng. The difficult level of this kind of attack would never be possible without having gone through very tough training. "How did you do it?" she asked as she walked over obediently.
Wang Zheng held Aina gently and placed her on his lap. He could finally show off a little, "I'm telling you! I am a genius! I am going to collect my payment now, with interest on top of that."
Aina rolled her eyes, giving a look of having been smitten. Girls should be conquered, and she loved Wang Zheng when he was overbearing and courageous.
Wang Zheng only let go of Aina after a round of hot kissing to let her catch her breath. Aina gently punched Wang Zheng. "You are so daring! Other people wouldn't even breathe the air that I exhale, but you are bullying me every day. I didn't come from far away only to let you bully me."
"You are the Princess of Aslan, but here, I am the one who takes charge!" Wang Zheng said. And without giving Aina a chance to protest, he started kissing her passionately again.
If you are not convinced, I am going to kiss you until you are!
Before long, Aina could only obey. But this rascal's tongue was very cheeky, and he started to french kiss her with his tongue.
At this moment, something hit the door and in rushed Yan Xiaosu. Wang Zheng and Aina quickly separated, but only at the lips. Wang Zheng could not throw Aina off, nor could he ever bring himself to.
"Yan Xiaosu, are you trying to seek death!?"
This rascal, of all the times to arrive. He would only arrive when he wanted to.
An Mei was behind him. When she saw this scene, she understood what was going on. She also got bullied in this way before.
"Shishi, come here! This pair of brothers is good for nothing! They just want to have their way with us ladies all the time."
"You arrived at the perfect time!" Aina's face was red.
"Heh heh, don't blame me, Boss. This is a big development. Skeleton God has soared again, getting a pentakill. It's not just a godly pentakill, but a super godly pentakill!"
Yan Xiaosu had a feeling that he was about to fly. Because of this feeling, he kissed An Mei. He was finally advancing the relationship between the both of them.
Wang Zheng was taken aback by this guy's impulsive behaviour. It was fortunate that he did not tell him. Even the little things like this would surprise Yan Xiaosu.
"You will treat us to a round of meals!"
It was also not known whether An Mei was always hanging around Aina intentionally. If so, she was a professional at it.
"No problem! No problem! Boss, let me tell you. If you want to progress, you have to believe in Skeleton God!" Yan Xiaosu said at the back.
"You're always missing the main point, you rascal!" Wang Zheng said while shaking his head.
Looking at the two girls walking in front, Yan Xiaosu finally came to his senses. How could beauty be so cold!?
He realized that Boss was still smarter; he could slowly view the replay when he gets back. But if he offended An Mei, he could say goodbye to happy times.
"Let's go! Tonight we'll have a good feast!"
"You pick the place, it's my treat," Wang Zheng said. Come to think of it, after so many battles, it was about time to distribute the money.
"Wow, had I known this, I shouldn't have eaten earlier" Yan Xiaosu said while laughing.
"Then we should eat more!" An Mei ridiculed Wang Zheng as if she had to in order to feel comfortable. "Shishi, you wouldn't mind, right?"
"As you wish."
The four of them laughed. Jokes aside, Wang Zheng could feel the battle energy in his chest getting stronger. He didn't understand the death gyro; it was totally an instinctive reaction. The plum pile training was based on the concept of pace. Only by using this kind of attack could he maintain his center of gravity. He borrowed the momentum of the moment to execute it.
As for double control, given Skeleton's crazy training routine, what was this compared to that?
Aina's heart was still beating very hard. The reason was because she realized that she was losing more and more control of herself. Wang Zheng's every move was making her smitten. What was wrong with her...
Data bulletin regarding the Wargod No. 1 regular armor:
The solar system's latest three most popular armor:
Heavenly Umbra Calamity Type 3: Aslan Super Mecha, all-weather scout type. Aggressive combat effectiveness, but it is difficult to operate. It is still difficult even in CT, but if it can be played to its highest potential, it can crush the gods, also known as the Terminator models.
Atlantis "Dragon's Roar": Atlantis Republic's Super Mecha. It is the king of naval warfare. In water battlefields, it is known as an overpowered mech. It is the favorite of players who love naval warfare.
Wargod No. 1: Practice Machine
The popular quarterly competition was very intense. The database was also updated constantly, but for some high-end mecha, their performance could not be copied completely. But in general, they performed at about 90% of the actual thing. These mecha were highly sought after by the high-end players.
Currently in military research, the major federations, republics, and empires were mainly focused on funding the development of mecha. Since the ban on weapons of mass destruction, warships and mecha were now the key assets in battle. The high mobility of the mecha had become an increasingly important stat. Many scientists predicted that as technology advanced and the mecha became smaller in size, the mecha would become the main power in combat. The combination of human and mechanical civilization would be at its highest level.
However, under such fierce competition, for the permanently free Wargod No. 1 to rise to becoming the third most popular mech was already a miracle.
Many people initially thought that it was an official mistake, or that the latest of a super mech was called the Wargod No. 1.
When Skeleton's latest match ended, the Wargod No. 1 just barely squeezed past the Republic of Madagascar's' Demon King Super Mech to take third place.
Skeleton Corps members were now no longer just from Asia, not even just from Earth. Even players from Mars as well as the Moon were starting to join.
The most recent victory marked the 9-game winning streak. This win rate wasn't that amazing; there were masters who had more than 20-game winning streaks. But no one was able to achieve such a win rate with the Wargod No. 1.
The players had also realized that in the recent two battles, Skeleton seemed to have been under the influence of some intense aggressiveness.
Natural King was also unlucky; his title lasted for three months in the end under the eyes of the audience. Did he think that everyone was blind to his unscrupulous actions of bribing other players?
But no one was concerned about his antics anymore; some even wanted to thank him. Without the effort he put in, how could the battle have been so exciting?
The only real pity was that the originally planned interview ultimately never took place. The official statement given was that the announcers were too shocked after watching the battle and the staff forgot to remind them. This was quickly explained and forgotten.
Bubbly Foam also expressed her apology on her own social media platform. Although she had casted a lot of intense high-tier games, she was baffled by his battle and thus forgot to ask the questions.
People would always be more forgiving towards a beautiful girl. Also, Skeleton's words were a classic that had become quite popular. When the battle was about to end, he said the words "You either live as a coward, or be reborn again within battle!"
"And with a chorus of amen, hallelujah etc.. the opponent will be finished.
Although it was a terrible mech, no one was able to stop players from using the Wargod No. 1. Besides, it could change the person's attitude, forcing them to become more cautious and to pay attention to the environment. Although not using the Wargod No. 1 would only result in victory, such a victory was not as cool nor as satisfying.
This trend had been gaining more and more popularity; it was the most popular in Asia.
Of course, amidst this bustling scene, some experts had begun to stir. Their positions at the high tiers had received strong challenges, and questions had been asked. But at the same time, for an expert to fight against the lower-tier arena would be an embarrassment for them.
The high-tier and low-tier scenes were two totally different things. What was achieved in the low tier would be impossible in the high-tier. The opponents were not pigs, and they were not prone to rash decisions. The pentakill (killing the others without taking more than 80% damage) was the limit. The knowledgeable people knew that this was the reality; only those at a lower tier would make a fuss over this.
Only newcomers like Wild King would accept this kind of stupid invitation. The others would be dismissive; even a win would be distasteful. Fighting in these kinds of battles would be akin to lowering one's own standings.
Although the scene was bustling, the professionals and master players did not comment.
But some uncouth people had proudly announced that they were able to single-handedly destroy Skeleton, attracting the ire of the rest of the players.
