Wei Nine felt frustrated. He furiously opened the door of his login pod. The moment he stepped out, he saw a crowd of people standing in the virtual atrium. They heard the noise and looked over at him. One of the people in the crowd raised his eyebrows and asked, “Wei Nine, has the fight ended?”
Wei Nine pursed his lips and didn’t reply to the man. The man read his dark expression and understood everything. “You lost!”
Wei Nine didn’t deny it. He lowered his head and replied, “Yes, captain.” The man that spoke was his captain, Wei One, of the Dragon Tail Battle Team.
“Zhua Fifteen came out before you. How many of your opponents died?” Another man beside Wei one asked Wei Nine.
Wei Nine shook his head.
( Boxno vel. co m ) “Are you uncertain or is there no casualties on the other side?” The man’s expression changed when he saw Wei Nine’s reaction.
Wei Nine glanced at Wei One. Wei One signaled that he could continue so he answered, “When I came out, there were still 6 people in the opponent’s team.” At the start, he was confident that he injured his opponent seriously. However, her last attack destroyed all the confidence he had. Now, he wasn’t even sure if he did hurt her at all.
The other members of the Flying Dragon Special Forces let out a gasp in surprise. The opponent defeated two members of the Flying Dragon Special Forces without any losses on their side. What kind of monsters were they? They finally got to experience what it felt like to treat other people as monsters.
“Zhua One, do you remember what the commander said?” Wei One turned to the person who kept talking. He was the captain of Zhua Fifteen, Zhua One. No wonder he was so agitated. One of his team members was defeated.
“I wonder how our members are doing?” The other people in the virtual atrium were all captains of the other members. They were worried. They thought that it would be an easy game but from the looks of it, the Flying Dragon Special Forces team might be defeated. If this piece of news leaked out, it would be embarrassing for the Flying Dragon Special Forces.
Wei Nine looked at one of the captains. The captain immediately noticed his gaze and looked over. He said coldly, “Wei Nine, do you have something to tell me?”
Wei Nine didn’t reply to him. He glanced at the people in the atrium and exclaimed in surprise, “Didn’t Zhua Fifteen tell you anything?”
Zhua One replied indifferently, “Zhua Fifteen experienced some emotional trauma after the battle. He had been sent to the hospital to undergo psychological counseling.” He prevented Wei Nine from sowing discord between two battle teams.
Wei Nine replied, “Oh, no wonder.” He sighed and said to Captain Xu One, “Actually, Zhua Fifteen and Xu Eleven collaborated but they still couldn’t win against their opponent. Zhua Fifteen was defeated by a single shot. Xu Eleven is left to defend by himself... ” He shook his head in pity to express that Xu Eleven was in a bad state.
Xu One and Zhua One turned green with anger. They didn’t expect their team members to collaborate against an opponent. They knew the capabilities of their own team members. If Xu One or Zhua One took on the two of them, they would still require some effort before defeating them. Was their opponent as powerful as them? When did such a powerful battle team appear?
“Are they all newcomers?” Xu One asked seriously.
Wei Nine thought about it seriously. He shook his head. “No.”
“Why do you say that?” Zhua One asked hurriedly.
“From the way they fought, they are very experienced. Their fighting style is sharp and clean. Leader Lin Five said that there was only one recruit.” Wei Nine told them his analysis as well as what Lin Five said.
The captains heaved a sigh of relief. It was alright for newcomers to lose to an old mecha operator as they lacked experience. It was better than losing to a recruit.
“Beep, beep, beep!” The lights of a login pod turned red. The person inside pushed opened the door. His pale face told everyone that he lost badly. This person was Xu Eleven.
Xu One sighed loudly. After hearing what Wei Nine said, he knew that Xu Eleven would lose soon. He immediately sent Xu Eleven to the hospital and let him undergo psychological counseling. He was afraid that this match would totally destroy Xu Eleven’s courage and confidence and turn him into a useless person.
“I don’t understand why the commander accepted this mission. Who are our opponents?” The captains got more curious when another member of their team got defeated.
This answer could only be revealed after the match ended. None of the captains left the virtual atrium. All of them patiently waited for the match to end. Their attitude towards this battle changed completely.
Ice Spirit defeated her opponent. She smiled when she saw one lesser opponent on her screen. The next second, she was out of the battle. She didn’t go out of the virtual world but came to the atrium.
“You lost?” Senior Colonel Mi raised his eyebrows and asked her.
Ice Spirit smiled. “Mutual destruction.”
Senior Colonel Mi laughed. “Good job.” Because this was a battle against the Flying Dragon Special Forces, spectating this battle was prohibited. This was why Senior Colonel Mi waited in the atrium and didn’t go to the spectator stand.
The two of them ended their conversation and looked towards the optical supercomputer in front of them. They wondered how the rest of them were doing. They waited in agitation for the next person to come out.
Very soon, someone walked towards them.
The battle in the virtual world was still ongoing. After Ice Spirit and Wei Nine got killed, more people started exiting the match.
Xu Eleven and Ya Ten used the same weapon but their endings were different.
Their weapons were a high-energy beam gun. This gun was five times more powerful than a normal beam gun. That meant that Ling Lan and Divine Blade’s beam shield would not be able to withstand a shot from this gun. Once they got hit, they would be killed.
Ling Lan got Little Four as her cheatsheet so she quickly got the information about this gun. She knew that she couldn’t be hit by this gun. Actually, even if Little Four didn’t give her this information, she would not take the risk and attack her opponent. It was too risky. She needed to ascertain the impact of the weapon first.
Ling Lan had a lot of experience with long-range weapons so she knew that there was an effective range for each weapon. Once she got out of this range, the closer she got to her opponent, the less effective the attack would be. No weapons were invincible. Each weapon had it strength and weakness. The same applied to long-range weapons.
Xu Eleven was slightly weaker than Ling Lan in terms of mecha operation. His mentality was much weaker too. Hence, when he saw Ling Lan closing in on him, he panicked and missed his last opportunity. If he had stayed calm and fired the last shot, he might have a chance to win.
However, in the end, he died under Ling Lan’s sword.
On the other hand, Ya Ten managed to grab the chance to fire his ultimate technique, Light Blockade. The impact of the beam reached its maximum with the help of the device. Divine Blade had no chance to dodge at all. He was hit and sent out of the battle.
Before Ya Ten fired his shot, Ling Lan gave an order to Divine Blade. She knew about the weakness of this gun so she told her teammate too. However, Divine Blade hesitated. His hesitation caused him to lose his opportunity to turn the tides around.
Xu Eleven and Divine Blade died around the same time. Hence, Ling Lan met Ya Ten and they fought with each other. The results were apparent. Ling Lan defeated Ya Ten and he became the fourth person from the Flying Dragon Special Forces team to exit the match.
