Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 504 - 279: Wave Turbulence vs. Supernova Bombardment
Chapter 504 -279: Wave Turbulence vs. Supernova Bombardment
(Congratulations to the two new lead authors, “Cat Brother” and “? Deep Sea,” for this 3,200-character chapter, full of sincerity!)
“I hope your strength is better than your eloquence.”
At Shang Qianxin’s level, it was impossible to be thrown off by a line or two from his opponent.
If one lacked the might, such words would become utterly ridiculous.
Therefore, wasting breath was the most meaningless thing to do.
The giant spear in his hand was raised high, then, amid surging momentum, it was abruptly leveled!
In that moment, Shang Qianxin finally revealed the sharpness befitting the Pulan Spear!
“Bro, I’ve got a feeling that what’s coming next will be spectacular.”
“No kidding, I could have told you that.”
“Who will win?”
“We must win, of course!”
“Right, they’re down to just one person, let’s blow him up!”
Only at this moment did the fickle audience below finally submit to Mu Fan, who had impressed them time and again.
No matter the outcome, the name Mu Fan would undoubtedly be remembered by most.
If he really managed to defeat the Pulan Spear, his name would be etched onto the cornerstone of glory!
The mechas faced each other from afar.
The Silver Blue Hunter Mecha was half a generation ahead of the Assault Warrior, with its engine power boosted by nearly 18%.
This meant that it possessed a stronger burst of speed than the Assault Warrior.
While Mu Fan was putting on a solo show, Shang Qianxin hadn’t made a move, always carefully observing Mu Fan’s mecha handling habits.
The trickiest part must be those peculiar, lightning-like assault tactics.
The way to effectively contain this maneuver should be to limit the opponent’s speed, so…
“Silver Moon Nova—Earth Tremor!”
The spear in the book emitted blue dancing arcs, crackling and illuminating the area.
The engines behind him suddenly shifted from orange to blue!
The epitome of engine boost!
Pressing down on one end of the spear held in hand, the tip of the spear was tilted upward.
With a whoosh, the Silver Blue Hunter shot towards the sky.
What was he planning to do!
“What is Pulan’s mecha up to?”
This question echoed simultaneously in the minds of Rachel and the audience below.
At Shang Qianxin’s level of the Pulan Spear, Rachel’s commentary felt somewhat powerless.
It was very possible that one overlooked detail could be the key to victory or defeat.
Seeking help with her gaze, Rachel finally relaxed after receiving a signal from “Red Cat” Jes sitting beside her, and her enthusiastic voice rose: “The exciting battle up next will be brought to you by the pillar of our Mecha Club, our senior with the title of one of the Seven Martial Generals—’Red Cat’ Jes with a more professional commentary!”
“I am third-year student Jes, hello everyone.”
“Wow~ Senior, hello!”
“An idol, good morning!”
The atmosphere heated up again, as this was a true legend—having a super expert greet them thrilled these students, fueling the peak of their masculine fantasies.
More professional commentary was on its way, which meant they could enjoy the spectacle even more!
Jes didn’t use many phrases to stir the crowd, but when he spoke, the sheer volume of professional insight involuntarily drew everyone’s attention.
“Silver Moon Nova is Shang Qianxin’s unique combat skill, which requires a spear to perform. So far, he has publicly used it a total of 12 times, with repetitions in each performance. This Earth Tremor is a range-limiting technique, with a very precise aim to contain the speed of the No. 04 newcomer.”
As he commented, the Silver Blue Hunter that had risen to mid-air finally turned its spear tip around.
The spear tip, flickering with electric arcs, pointed downward.
Range limitation?
The students watching were puzzled, still clueless about what the mecha would do next.
The cold gaze of the Silver Blue Hunter locked onto the red figure below, as its engines boosted, plunging downwards with great force.
“Damn, is it turning itself into a meteor?”
“A kamikaze tactic?”
Amidst the speculations, the tip of the gigantic spear began to spark violently with electromagnetic flashes, bright and blinding!
Boom!
The moment it reached the ground, Shang Qianxin controlled the mecha’s arm to tremble repeatedly.
The silver spear jabbed continuously from five different directions in an instant.
At this moment, the spear was like a phantom, splitting into five.
Zzz, zzz!
A visible electromagnetic net spread out instantly, the magnetic storms from the five points compounded and expanded, merging into a vast sea of magnetic tempests.
“Damn, what a flashy combat skill!”
“How the hell can you dodge this?”
“Don’t know if it’s impressive or not…”
As these observers turned to look at Mu Fan’s mecha, they couldn’t help but exclaim, “Is this like hacking the game or what!”
Originally pacing forward with his saber dragging behind, Mu Fan heard Black’s warning inside the cockpit the moment his opponent rose into the air and the spear tip started to flicker.
“Strong electromagnetic reaction detected, be cautious and protect the engine!”
It was Black’s words that prompted Mu Fan to react in advance.
How to evade if the Assault Warrior Mecha cannot take to the air?
Glancing towards the circular wall beside him, Mu Fan’s terrifying combat instinct responded in a flash.
Soglier Key Method—Charge.
With no ground to push off from, but as the crimson mecha stepped onto the wall, the saber pointed towards the ground.
The blade bent, and the mecha ran parallel to the ground once again!
It was then that the magnetic storm sea began spreading out to the sides.
The saber in Mu Fan’s hand became the only support between the mecha and the ground, bearing the weight under the high-speed rush entirely within its capacity, with only a slight bend and no other abnormalities!
The spreading electric arcs were attracted to the saber, climbing up, but when they reached the ceramic handle they were insulated by the insulating layer.
The magnetic storm was still spreading, and as people were still questioning the effectiveness of the move, Brandon and a few surviving freshmen demonstrated a textbook example.
Electric arcs climbed up, followed by a tingling numbness from the outside in.
The engines of these few mechas simultaneously decreased in power, and the color of the flaming outflows changed from dark to light.
“Engine circuits disrupted, power decreased by 50%, recovering, estimated 40 seconds…”
The few Assault Warriors that panicked and fled suddenly entered slow-motion mode, what used to cover three steps in one second was now one step per second, looking incredibly comical.
“You think you’re out of trouble just like that? Naive! Silver Moon Nova—Meteor Rain!”
Shang Qianxin sneered coldly as the Silver Blue Hunter crashed to the ground, its figure paused in a retreat, then leapt high!
The spear tip, glinting with cold light, aimed in Mu Fan’s direction, then thrust fiercely.
“Meteor Rain is a Spear Stabbing Skill, and the particularly irritating thing about it is that Shang Qianxin has perfectly combined firearms with cold weapons; each strike of the spear is accompanied by heavy fire. If Mu Fan wasn’t aware of this, then he would truly be in danger.”
The thick mechanical arm holding the spear smashed heavily into the wall; the crimson mecha, surging parallel to the ground, pressed down, its Hot Melt Saber bending and the rebounding force sending it climbing once more.
The spear tip arrived at the location previously occupied by the mecha.
Warning!?
A sudden, piercing alarm made Mu Fan’s expression grow stern.
In an instant, a circle of twelve rockets burst from the shoulders of the Silver Blue Hunter, targeting the position pointed by the spear tip.
Super Precision Guided Missiles!
Spear tip withdrawn!
Twelve rockets covered the same area at the same time.
Boom boom boom boom!
A cloud of smoke rose, covering that area.
“…”
The venue fell silent; they all hoped that the crimson figure would appear from the smoke of the explosion the next second.
“Clearly, Mech 04 didn’t anticipate that Shang Qianxin had this additional move. The worst outcome would be that the rockets cripple it, or there could even be more profound damage,” Jes commented as objectively as he could.
Time passed by a second, the smoke hadn’t cleared yet, and the worry of the spectators had reached its peak.
“So it’s a freshman after all, still too green.”
From within the Silver Blue Hunter, which was twisting to retrieve its spear, Shang Qianxin’s voice drifted out.
“Disabled, is it? No wait, what is that!”
A student who was muttering to himself suddenly pointed excitedly at the screen.
A flash of red light appeared, and the crimson silhouette emerged from the edge of the smoke like a ghost.
“He’s alright, he’s really alright!”
There was not a hint of panic on Mu Fan’s face, his calm was maddening, his fingers danced over the control panel like flowing water.
Soglier Key Method!
Chaotic Zigzag Step!
In that instant, Mu Fan hesitated not a moment to initiate both states, then the twelve volleying rockets all missed their mark!
The recent explosion and the smoke had nothing to do with him.
Under the perfect overlay of the Key Order and Chaotic Zigzag, the bizarre step was no longer a back-and-forth “Z” shape, but like waves surging from multiple angles, spreading in random directions after crashing against the crest of the wave.
The intensity varied, the directions and angles varied, the speed varied.
The body inside the cockpit underwent multi-angle feedback that was simulated, and under the intense rotation, it could make one dizzy.
But Mu Fan’s figure, along with the cockpit, spun rapidly, his eyes glued to the screen in front of him, his pupils unchanging.
“What?” novelbuddy.cσ๓
Shang Qianxin actually did not see the scene he had expected.
The Silver Blue Hunter, which was about to withdraw, leapt high once again, its spear tip, gleaming coldly, aimed at the direction of Mu Fan’s charge.
“Silver Moon Nova—Meteor Rain!”
The spear fell like an aerial meteor into the sea time and again.
But Mu Fan’s mecha was like the ripples on the water, expanding again and again.
The mutated Chaotic Zigzag Step finally revealed its terror.
“Mu Fan, you’re simply a genius to have evolved the Chaotic Zigzag Step!”
Black’s tone carried astonishment.
This was a move practiced by many people in the fantasy combat zone, the most effective way to dodge, unchanged for many years, but in Mu Fan’s hands, the step skill had entered a whole new level.
Proceed with chaotic pre-movement changes!
“Mu Fan, according to interstellar mecha rules, you have the right to name this move.”
“Wave Chaotic Step.” Mu Fan answered without hesitation; he had achieved it with the enhancement of the Key Order, so the name should reflect the features of the move.
Like the waves, continuing the Chaotic Zigzag on top of the waves.
That was the specter-like charging silhouette!
The saber was lowered again as it ran, and a dazzling flash of light lifted from the metal floor with a sizzling noise.
The crimson figure charged forward again like a fearless Samurai.
Trembling and roaring explosions erupted around him, the figure deftly weaving through the bombardment.
Now, he felt at the peak of his condition.
Thus, this battle could be brought to an end!
Mu Fan made the mecha squat and then leap up fiercely, charging toward the spear tip gleaming coldly.
The Hot Melt Saber swept up from below, trailing a crescent afterimage, as if to collide with the mecha in mid-air.
Shang Qianxin saw this scene, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
“You’ve finally stopped dodging? Then die under my move!”
“—Supernova Bombardment!”
Surging power emerged, the tail flame turned pale blue, and the Silver Blue Hunter soared into the air, beginning to spin rapidly.
The next second, it crashed down with a thunderous sound!
