After arriving at 《Mechanical Empire》, Lin Fei took a look at his own combat statistics:
Account name: Second in the world (I am second, can the world have a first?)
Number of battles: Fifty-nine
Winning percentage: one hundred percent
Affiliation: Tianlong Federation
Mech Type: Qinglong
Title: Small Achievement (Already won 10 consecutive games in the primary room, can enter the intermediate room)
Intermediate house consecutive wins: one
"It seems that I still need to win nine more games to enter the advanced room, I want to kill all the way up and fight until no one can stop me," Lin Fei thought.
Lin Fei entered room 672 of the intermediate house. After entering the room, he started shouting in the chat channel of the intermediate house: "The second in the world is waiting for a challenge in room 672 of the intermediate house, only one chance, after finishing this game I will sleep, those who are not afraid to die come."
After finishing speaking, Lin Fei directly closed the chat channel.
One second later, a challenger appeared. A player from the Beast Empire named Liu Yun applied to challenge Lin Fei, who immediately agreed.
The battle scene begins to generate.
At the same time, the audience in room 672 was packed again. The second "White Day Down" had already appeared once before. That five-second shot to kill, made countless people recall. That one shot, was simply a stroke of genius, making all players who watched the battle video, feel interested.
Players, who would have thought that less than 12 hours after the last battle, the second in the world appeared again in the intermediate room, issuing a challenge to all Beast Empire players in the intermediate room.
This time, the audience is not just 50,000 people, but 5 million people. If it weren't for the late night, I estimate that there would be even more viewers.
The Tianlong Federation players who came to watch the game saw their idol, the second in the world, driving a familiar Qinglong mech onto the field, and immediately cheered.
As the land warfare regular mobile suit of the Tianlong Federation, the Qinglong has nothing that can be called outstanding. The ordinary mobile suit stands on the battlefield, its energy sword still in its scabbard and its sniper rifle slung over its back. Yet it is this very ordinary mobile suit that makes the players of the Tianlong Federation proud. Its record of fifty-nine consecutive victories, with each victory achieved by defeating the opponent in a single move, showcases the strength of this Qinglong mobile suit, which is said to be second only to the strongest in the land.
"I am second, can there be a first under heaven?" With an attitude of disdain towards the world, he showed his overbearing manner.
The challenger of the Beast Empire, Liu Yun, is driving a Knight-III type mecha. The mecha has a circular alloy shield on its left arm, which is connected to the left arm of the mecha. The attack weapon of the Knight-III mecha is an energy short sword.
Knight-III Mech, also jokingly referred to by players as "Turtle".
His attack power is not prominent, and the focus of the entire body is on defense. The alloy shield in the left hand of the mech is the soul of the entire body.
Each driver of the three mechs is constantly on the defensive, looking for weaknesses in their opponent's attacks, and then taking them down with a single move.
This challenge is no exception for Liu Yun, a player of Beast Empire, who has an impressive record of 4382 wins and 34 losses. Last month, Liu Yun also won a game in the high-level house, but unfortunately failed to win consecutively and lost miserably in the second game, dropping down to the intermediate house.
Those familiar with Liu Yun know that his battles last over thirty minutes on average.
With copper walls and iron fortresses defending, continuously weakening the morale of the attacking troops, then with a lightning-fast strike, winning the victory, this is player Liu Yun's tactical routine.
Players of the Beast Empire, when they saw that this time's opponent in the duel with Tianxia Second was Liu Yun, known as the strongest defense in the intermediate house, began to shout at the players of the Tianlong Federation in the chat channel: "Isn't Tianxia Second known for being able to take down all his opponents with one move? In the past, he could take down his opponents because they were too weak. This time, he's met our Liu Yun. Don't even mention one move, even ten moves or a hundred moves would be useless."
"Liu Yun, go for it! Use your impenetrable defense to show those damn Tian Long Federation players what a true master looks like. I'm waiting for the thunderous strike that will cut their mech in two!" Another Beast Empire player shouted.
Players of the Tianlong Federation, who have fought against Liu Yun driving the Knight-3 mech, know that his defensive capabilities are terrifying. Even after continuous attacks for ten minutes, half an hour, or even an hour, they were constantly blocked by his sword and shield. In the end, when they had lost all desire to fight, they were cut down by Liu Yun's single slash, how helpless is that?
Liu Yun, known as the strongest defender in the middle house of the Beast Empire, is not called that for nothing. His terrifying record of 4382 wins and 34 losses makes those players who came to support the second-best player hesitant.
In the primary house, the second in the world showed terrifying close combat capabilities, and every move was a one-second kill. However, those were just novices. Afterward, someone specifically calculated the attack speed of the second in the world. The attack speed shown by the second in the world in the primary house could only be considered above average but below top-notch.
Although they hesitated, they still shouted at the Beast Empire players: "The second in the world didn't say that this time's battle would be over with one move, it's just that you are too weak and can't hold on to the second move. Let's take another look at his signature, I am the second, is there a first in the world? He said he was invincible, right? What about the strongest defense in the intermediate room? Even if the second in the world can't beat you with one move, he will still win, and he will win in the midst of fierce storms."
"It takes only two shots to take down Liu Yun, the second in the world. The first shot knocks away his shield, and the second shot finishes him off."
In the midst of the quarrel between players from Tianlong Federation and Beast Empire, the battle began, and the map was generated as an ancient Roman Colosseum.
"The Mech Empire" has also opened a betting pool on whether Tianxia Second can defeat Liu Yun, with players from the Tianlong Federation placing bets on either side. Some have bet that Tianxia Second will continue his legend and destroy the enemy mech with one move, while others have bet that he will emerge victorious.
And the players of Beast Empire mostly support their tortoise warrior Flow Cloud.
A massive amount of betting capital began to flow into the gambling house, as no matter which side won, taxes would be deducted and distributed in a hierarchical manner to the Tianlong Federation and the Bai Shou Empire, all similar gambling houses were tacitly permitted by the rulers.
"Second in the world, today I will take revenge for those 58 defeated Beast Empire players with my close combat skills." The battle began, and Liu Yun spoke first in the driver's cabin, he felt that this map was too bad for him, so he immediately spoke up.
The map of ancient Roman arena is just a large flat ground with no cover at all.
He also watched the video in the morning, and the Qinglong No. 2 was able to destroy a warplane flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters within five seconds with a sniper rifle. He understood that even if the warplane did not make any evasive maneuvers and flew in a straight line, it would still require terrifying predictive ability and precise locking.
Liu Yun thought that his mech, without any cover on the battlefield, was absolutely no match for a sniper rifle-wielding opponent. It was laughable - even if his mech could run fast, it couldn't outrun an aircraft that could hit its target within five seconds. Even with the alloy shield in his left hand, it could at most block one shot from the sniper rifle, and after that, the shield would shatter. The second shot would penetrate his cockpit.
So Liu Yun came up with a plan to trap Tianxia's second-in-command and was determined not to let him use his sniper rifle.
In Liu Yun's mind, the second-best in the world uses a sniper rifle. If he loses, it means the second-best in the world doesn't use a sniper rifle, and he will definitely win.
－－－
"Shameless, I've never seen anyone so shameless. I said no shields allowed, and he's using the alloy shield from the Knightmare Frame! The second-best player in the world doesn't even need a sniper rifle. This is the first time I've heard of someone not being allowed to use their mech's weapons. Don't mind him, I support you, take him out with one shot just like you did that fighter this morning." said a quick-reacting player from the Tian Long Federation.
"Right, take him down, gun raised, locked on, fire, just five seconds to finish him off, two shots and he's completely over." The players of the Tianlong Federation echoed.
"Isn't the mid-level house supposed to be the strongest defense? Can use Wind Chaser's movement to dodge the second-best gun in the world, on the condition that my dodging speed is faster than the warplane's flying speed this morning, hahaha. Second-best in the world, I support you, first disable him with one shot and then slowly torture him." Another player from Tian Long Federation shouted in the chat channel of room 672 in the mid-level house.
"In an open area, close-range and sniper-type mechs will be at a disadvantage. If the second-best player in the world uses a sniper rifle, it's not a fair match." The players of the Beast Empire spoke out to support their own representative.
"Yes, the confrontation between sniper-type and close combat-type mechs should be in an arena with obstacles. Strongly request a change of venue, otherwise the second-best mech can't use sniping guns to shoot, it's too open, close combat mechs can't dodge the opponent's shots at all."
"Fair? The duel this morning was fair, I remember that when the Qinglong No. 2 appeared in an open position, no one said anything about needing cover on the ground for a fighter and sniper showdown. Don't listen to their nonsense, Tianxia No. 2, take him out with one shot and win this match first." A player from the Tiandragon Federation presented evidence from the video of this morning's match to refute this.
"The battlefield is already set, this is fate, heaven itself wants to destroy the Mechanized Empire of Beastmen."
－－－－－
Lin Fei took a look at the dueling arena, and since he had already closed the room's chat channel due to it being too noisy, he only heard Liu Yun's words, requesting a close-range battle with him.
"Just as I expected, I will defeat you with my energy sword." Lin Fei replied calmly.
"Your words are as arrogant as your name, today I'll let you know the consequences of being arrogant." Liu Yun's fighting spirit immediately rose after receiving the reply from the second place in the world. In close combat, he had never been afraid of anyone in the intermediate room, and he was confident in his own mech's defensive capabilities, which were accumulated through continuous victories.
"In front of me, there were fifty-eight people who had the same idea as me before the war, and in the end, they were all defeated by my one move." After saying this, Lin Fei drew out his energy sword while riding on his mech.
On the other hand, Liu Yun also made his Knight-3 type machine body take a defensive posture on the spot.
Lin Fei sat in the cockpit, and the Qinglong No. 1 machine body rushed forward, with six thrusters behind it, like a gust of wind rushing towards Liu Yun's Knight-3 machine body.
Every close combat mech pilot is warned by their instructor about several things not to do in a mech when they take their first practical lesson.
The first item, also the most serious warning, is that when the mech is stationary, never start the thrusters of the mech at once, but instead start them one by one in sequence.
If the thrusters are suddenly activated when the mecha is stationary, although the speed of the mecha will increase to its maximum in a very short time, the pilot's body will be subjected to tremendous pressure, resulting in slowed reaction times at best and internal injuries with bleeding at worst.
At this time, Lin Fei's driving room showed that the gravitational force he was subjected to had already reached three times the normal gravity. If it were an ordinary driver, his reaction ability would definitely be greatly affected by the double-handed manipulation of the mechanical armor.
Although it was a virtual game cockpit, this highly simulated cockpit, on the platform that claimed to be 100% close to reality mech combat, almost perfectly simulated the mech cockpit in actual combat, instantly presenting three times normal gravity, and fed back to Lin Fei in the cockpit.
But these sudden increases in gravity had no effect on Lin Fei, who was now required by the war god system in his brain to do 3,000 sit-ups, 3,000 push-ups, and 3,000 squats every day with twice the gravity, while maintaining a standard posture and flying frequency.
This sudden surge in gravity only made Lin Fei's desire for battle even stronger.
Lin Fei wielded the Qinglong mech, just like in training, drawing out his energy sword and charging straight at the Knight mech's left chest cockpit with the acceleration of his armor.
Liu Yun saw that the second strongest in the world on the opposite side had suddenly activated his Instant Thruster, and the attack he launched was relentless. Knowing the strength of this opponent, Liu Yun also became fully alert, and under his control, the Knight's machine body raised its left arm, holding up its shield.
"Hsss... hsss" The energy sword was blocked by the shield of Liu Yun's Knight Mech, and the shield and sword tip collided fiercely. Liu Yun's body also retreated more than ten steps under Lin Fei's first strike.
"What a swift sword and what fierce power, I barely dodged the first move." Liu Yun thought.
"Blocked! He actually blocked it, looks like I can only use my special ability now." With that thought, Lin Fei immediately used his special ability and returned to his own mech, charging forward.
Lin Fei once again manipulated the mecha, charging towards Liu Yun. The energy sword stabbed straight ahead, this time piercing the right chest of the mecha.
"Hmph……" Lin Fei's straight thrust was intercepted by Liu Yun's energy short knife, the energy knife made a slanting slash, causing Lin Fei's sword tip to deviate to the side, and his sword stabbed into the air.
"It seems that the title of 'Copper Wall Iron Fortress' is not just for show, I don't believe it, there's no weakness." Lin Fei once again used his special ability to return to the starting point of the charge. The two battles had taught him that the opponent's defensive speed was extremely fast, and the two failures had reignited his desire to fight.
Blocked, back to before the dash.
Blocked again, back to before the dash.
Lin Fei repeatedly demonstrated his supernatural powers.
Finally, on the ninety-seventh use of his special ability, Lin Fei found the opponent's weakness. Liu Yun opposite him could quickly dodge attacks from the front, but was slightly slower in reacting to attacks coming from the right side of his body.
Lin Fei manipulated the Qing Long mech, charging towards Liu Yun. When the two mechs were only 20 meters apart, the Qing Long's three left-side jet nozzles suddenly changed their angle of thrust under Lin Fei's control, causing the mech to make a sideways slide, followed by a swift and decisive straight stab like a flash of lightning.
Before Liu Yun could react, his mech was pierced by the energy sword of Qinglong No. from the right waist, and the cockpit was penetrated.
With a loud "boom", the mech exploded and the battle was over.
After seeing the victory scene of the battle, Lin Fei quit the game and went back to bed to sleep. Tomorrow was the first day of school at Beidou Military Academy.
Ninety-eight battles allowed Lin Fei's attack to have a slight improvement, through actual combat, his attack became more sharp, his swordsmanship became more smooth.
With the joy of victory, Lin Fei can have a good sleep tonight.
Lin Fei can have a good sleep tonight, but for the spectators of the Beast Empire and the Tianlong Federation, tonight is a sleepless night.
Lin Fei used ninety-seven times of his special ability in this battle to find the weakness of his opponent, but for the audience and his opponent Liu Yun, the second best in the world only made one move.
One move, just one move.
The entire battle lasted less than a minute, and Liu Yun's Knight-III machine body was defeated. The man known as the strongest defense in the Hundred Beasts Empire's middle-grade house was pierced through the cockpit from the side by the world's second-best driver.
The expected prolonged battle of the Hundred Beasts Empire did not appear, one move, and the second in the world was also defeated in one move.
A single straightforward thrust without any fancy moves, just a straight thrust.
The channel watching this duel suddenly exploded.
"One move, still one move to kill, I was wrong, the second in the world, I shouldn't have questioned his ability, he's a war god, the second in the world. Just now, I actually thought that the second in the world would be defeated by Liu Yun under the crazy stormy sword moves. God, I was wrong, I'm guilty." A player who had just said in the channel that the second in the world would defeat Liu Yun with fierce continuous attacks sighed in the audience channel of room 672.
"The second strongest in the world can also be taken down with a gun, why not use it? Because he would waste bullets using a gun, and one move is enough to take him down with a sword, hahaha!" Another player from the Tian Long Federation excitedly laughed out loud towards the audience of the Bai Shou Empire.
"They, the Hundred Beasts Empire's Liu Yun, were once known as the strongest defender of mid-tier houses. That was before, when Tianxia Second hadn't arrived. After he came, whether it was a copper wall or an iron wall, in Tianxia Second's eyes, they were all just tofu dregs."
"I'm second, can there be a first in the world? Next time don't even let little cats and dogs come to fight, you don't have the strength to be the best in the world, coming is just embarrassing, go wash up and sleep." Another Tian Long Federation player mocked the players of Bai Shou Empire.
"What is absolute strength? No matter if it's flying in the sky or crawling on the ground, one move and it's killed instantly. I support the second strongest in the world. I look forward to the next battle."
As the players of Tian Long Federation spoke out in a frenzy, the players of Bai Shou Empire couldn't find any reason to refute.
This morning's battle, they could still say that their own pilots were not ready, but now, this morning's tragedy has been repeated, and the players of the Beast Empire can only quietly log off again.
－－－－－
The forum video section of "Mech Empire", a striking video title "Tianxia Second Once Again One-Second Kill, Known as the Strongest Defense in the Mid-Level House Liu Yun" was posted.
Less than 12 hours after the video was released, the forum's video traffic surged in the middle of the night.
Those players who won the second battle of Tianxia, their money doubled instantly. At the same time, the money of those Beast Empire players who lost the second battle of Tianxia was cleared to zero.
Players who come to watch videos in "Mech Empire" are mostly novices, just passing the time, but there are also professional mech drivers. "Mech Empire" is a 100% simulated real-war mech combat game.
Today in the video, the scene of zero-second propulsion opening made those people notice that through calculation, the average gravity borne by Tianxia Second during acceleration in battle is three times, and when swinging out that sword, the gravity borne is astonishingly four times. However, his attack didn't have any pause or stiffness, which means under four times gravity, Tianxia Second can still use smooth techniques to manipulate the mech armor for attacks, and find the enemy's weakness in an instant to deliver a fatal blow.
It's not just the Beast Empire, but also some players with military power in the Tianlong Federation who are curious about the true identity of the second place winner. Which elite pilot from which military unit is he?
With this question in mind, some military leaders of the Tianlong Federation with some power curiously investigated the true identity of the second in the world.
But in the Tianlong Federation's personal system inquiry, the answer obtained was: "Sorry, your authority is not enough, the confidentiality level of the person being queried is above 3 levels."
When they got this answer, those young generals thought that the second in command was a high-ranking general trained by the Tianlong Federation, who was much higher than their own military rank. They couldn't think of it, Lin Fei's personal information level was so high because he killed his classmates and teacher a year ago, and the military adjusted Lin Fei's personal information level to 2nd grade in order to keep it secret.
Tonight is a sleepless night for all players who watched the battle, whether they are Tianlong Federation players in extreme excitement or those Beast Empire players in the trough.
The second in the world brought them too much shock, one move, just one move is enough to shake the world, sixty consecutive victories, sixty seconds of killing achievements created a god of war, he is the second in the world, I am the second, can there be a first in the world?
Dare to claim invincibility in the world of mech warriors.
