READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 1123: Against The Legendary Player
-----
The Black Paladin, a Legendary Player of this Game. Someone ranked among the top ten strongest pilots, who has gained countless victories. According to the rumors, he mined for materials himself across the entire wasteland map, fighting Mutants along the way.
And through all his efforts, he custom-made his entire mech, a moder-looking machine warrior you can't buy anywhere here, nor rent either. A completely unique model that I haven't even seen in the ones available for pilots.
Along its ability to seemingly float indefinitely, it was also surrounded by six floating spears imbued with large quantities of Neutonium and other metals, electrified to the brim.
The silhouette of the robot was thin, as if it was a bunch of black needles stuck together.
"It has been a while since I've fought a whale like you," he pointed his six floating spears at me. He even had the voice of a proud paladin you would find in Spiritias, what a character.
"Don't make it too easy. Let's bet it all too. How about it?" Experience more content on empire
How confident of him, very well. I like that, I also want to bet everything anyways. I'm not particularly afraid, and I don't back down from a challenge either.
"Hah, this is going to be good." I laughed. "Of course. Let's bet our Add-ons, Credits, Warrior Points, everything."
The floating mech nodded, his six spears floating and rotating around his body, his proud and manly voice echoed around the entire arena.
"Very well," he said. "Let's have a good fight then! Don't die too quickly please. I want to have some fun."
"I would say the same," I said with a smile.
Like that, the countdown began after we both agreed on our bets.
Ding!
[You and your adversary had accepted a mutual betting!]
[Both of you are betting every add-on within your machine warriors.]
[The battle shall start in 5…]
[4…]
[3…]
[2…]
[1…]
[0…]
[FIGHT!]
DING! DING! DING!
The battle immediately began after the 1 count, I was going to get ready, I knew he would attack me first, so I put my shield first and…
It only took a blink.
FLASH!
Moving like a black flash, or a blur, the Legendary Black Paladin was already in front of me.
He moved incredibly fast! Not even my senses were able to properly calculate his speed.
Is this the strategy of his mech? An incredibly light build, plus indefinite flying, and then…
Floating weapons hyper charged with electricity.
His six floating spears rushed towards me, grinding through my shield and armor at lightning speed, black thunder emerged from each blow, spreading through my body and shield.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
And beginning to rapidly shatter my defenses. I saw small cracks on my expensive premium armor and shield. I smiled, however.
"Hah, I guess money can't do it all."
Good thing I was never truly relying on it completely.
"Excellent control, amazing build, and an incredible robot!" I laughed. "Zack, you would make an amazing pilot… If you weren't just some normal citizens, sitting on his desk."
"What sort of nonsense are you talking about?" he wondered. "Are you trying to distract me now that you're about to lose? Also don't try to log out, you'll immediately lose, and I'll get everything anyways!"
"Is that so…"
FLASH!
I moved forwards, without evading his blows. I felt how he was slightly surprised, his spears stopped for a second. This made me realize they work by mental commands.
"Shield Bash."
BAAAM!
"Ugh?!"
Taking that opportunity, that precious second I bought, I slammed his entire mech forwards with all my full force, moving at a speed he didn't realize.
"I bet you calculated I was slow due to my armor, right?"
"How!"
"Easy, you just broke my armor."
He underestimated me.
"Tch!"
With slight irritation, Zack quickly spun his entire mech's body like a needle and then clashed against my body with his arms and legs upwards.
They worked like damn spears, rapidly beginning to spread the cracks across my shield, I barely managed to spin my entire mech and then put my shield to receive his blows.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"He's fast and tougher too!"
Eleanora alerted me and yes, she wasn't wrong.
That shield bash should have definitely done more damage based on his light built.
This means that the metals that mech is made of are incredibly dense yet lightweight.
But nothing is impossible.
BAAAM!
I smashed the ground below with all the mech's strength, then, as Zack glanced at the floor in disbelief, thinking I was going to trick him, I moved upwards, jumping above him.
"What the…?!"
"That was a feint."
I kicked his mech's head and then pushed him down again. The six spears moved towards me, attempting to finish me off.
Six blows at once in any area of my unprotected mech's body would be my lose.
However.
"Time to use these babies."
Machineguns add-ons, work hard!
CRACKLE!
The machine warrior metal plates reverberated with loud sounds as two enormous machine guns surged from my shoulders.
Yes, this was my little surprise, hundreds of bullets were fired at once, exploding as they were the latest generation of anti-shield bullets.
RATATATATATA!
Those spears were of a slightly less durable material than the mech's armor, due to the barrage of bullets, the force alone sent them flying away.
"Machinegun add-ons on your shoulders?! So you had tricks!"
Zack didn't seem angered, he seemed amazed, quickly placing two of his mech's legs over my own mech's neck and pushing me down.
"However!"
CLANK!
With tremendous force, he pushed down my machine and placed its head into the ground, trying to crush it with all the force of his robot.
Of course, if he destroys the head, where the pilot is, I'll lose.
Smart.
"Eleanora, stop shooting with the machine guns, transfer yourself to my spear."
"What?! But the six spears will reach you before…"
"Trust me."
"…Okay!"
She hesitated only a second, immediately stopping her control over the machineguns, as they started shooting automatically this time, making them much easier to avoid for the six floating spears.
"What are you going to do now, Blake? Your head will come off, or your back will blow back into pieces!" Zack said. "It ended too quickly, unfortunately… But you got potential."
"Ah, is that so?"
FLASH!
And in that moment, my spear flew off my hands.
"Huh?!"
And before everyone's eyes, it landed on Zack mech's neck, right in the area between the head and the torso.
I was able to analyze that it was the weakest part.
CRASH!
Sending a current of red lightning, the spear began rotating rapidly.
"W-What is this? I thought your spear wasn't an autonomous one?!"
"Well, you thought wrong! Now let's see who dies first, Zack! Me or you!"
"YOU DAMN LUNATIC!"
Zack panicked as he started trying to tear apart my head while his spear moved towards my back, three towards me and three towards my spear, now controlled by Eleanora.
Crack, crack…
The sound of metal breaking apart and shattering reverberated, from both my own machine and Zack's amazing mech.
Cracks spread, and seconds passed.
Crack…!
The three spears evaded my machineguns and aimed at my back and shoulders.
And the other three finally reached Eleanora.
Crack, crack…
Who will shatter first?
CRAAASH!
