At this moment, the chubby guy was already starting to complain… It had to be admitted that such controls indeed felt quite unfamiliar. On any other mech model, like the Gun Rider, the Assembly Horn, or even the Warcraft Mech, the Chaos Mech, he could have executed a seamless set of combat moves in just a few breaths.

But piloting the Phantom Knight 0001, forget about a set, besides the basic operations that he could perform smoothly, he found his hands strained every time he pulled the joystick.

This mech demanded exceedingly strict control precision, so much that it could be fine-tuned to 64 directions, and it required ultra-sensitive feedback to body movements. Ordinary people piloting this mech would be practically self-torturing, yet it must be said, if you could master this mech, operating any other mech afterwards, including a super soldier, wouldn't be difficult.

Although Zhang Xiaobo wasn't a super soldier, he didn't need to have eaten pork to have seen pigs run— not only had he seen pigs run, but he had also eaten the pork.

"Dude, the countdown is over; why are you still dumbly standing there?"

A player with the ID of 'Top Noob' was suddenly patted on the shoulder by a brother beside him.

Only then did the Top Noob realize, "This guy is an expert, probably disguised under a smurf account."

"Expert? How expert? Think he's the Revenge Shadow Rider? At best, he's second-rate material." The brother beside him spoke with a hint of malice. After all, he was the dark horse in this forum. Though he wouldn't claim to be all that incredible, it was rare to find a second person with his caliber among thousands of people. Surrounded by a bunch of cute Little Beauties, he thought he needed to show off a bit, to have the presence of a big shot, and raising his eyebrows, he said, "You fight him. If it doesn't work out, I'll step in."

"Hey, never mind about me, I'm just saying it casually."

After Top Noob finished speaking, he immediately chose to enter the mech and clicked the countdown button…

Nineteen eight seven six five four three two one, as the countdown came to an end, the Top Noob in his Destroyer Mech charged first, swinging his sword, and it was a light sword, indicating that his mech was not lowly equipped. One should know that in the game, a light sword was a superior weapon that the middle class could own, extravagantly cool. Not only does it glow but brandishing it while flying high in the mech adds a steely romance to the experience.

However, despite the banter, it seemed that besides the light sword, the Noob's other mech equipment wasn't top-tier, but rather upper-middle-class. Apparently, he had invested all his money in this seemingly cool but actually impractical equipment.

A light sword can't be said to be completely impractical. As a plasma weapon, its performance far exceeds that of alloy equipment. But that's relevant for advanced pilots since the light sword is quite versatile. However, it's useless if you can't wield it, even despite the existence of weapons like the Square Sky Halberd, Qinggang Sword, Heaven's Sword, Ganjiang Sword, Fish Intestines Sword. Hence, ordinary people use the light sword for its appearance, and only true experts can unleash its intended power.

Especially if one is a super soldier. Yet someone might ask, why don't top-tier fighters like Kexiao and Revenge Shadow Rider wield light swords? Obviously, Kexiao and Revenge Shadow Rider have reached a level where they don't rely on light swords to enhance their capabilities. Their mech operation skills have become so proficient that they're akin to parts of their body, and they have complete control over every detail. Thus, regardless of the weapon, good or bad, it mostly depends on the person wielding it. This world doesn't have the strongest equipment but rather the most compatible equipment.

Clearly, Top Noob valued the light sword's extravagant appearance, but in use, it was like holding a fire stick, with no difference from Titanium Alloy.

Chubby's condition wasn't great either, as he tried to adapt to the Phantom Knight's controls while swinging his Titanium Alloy knife overhead, aiming for a 'Sweeping Thousand Troops' move.

Seeing this, Top Noob quickly controlled his mech to perform a side-roll evasion. Since his piloting wasn't smooth, the maneuver failed, or it didn't fully form, making it look more like a face-plant...

He! He actually face-planted!

However, as Chubby was still adjusting, he didn't control his strength well, and under inertia, the Phantom Knight 0001 also pitched forward, stumbling towards another direction...

The dramatically passing by of the two fighters startled the expert and the Little Beauties beside him, prompting a moment of disbelief. To see such a stunt? In an instant, a suppressed wave of laughter spread among the people nearby.

Truth be told, these two seemed quite a match: one face-planting and the other nearly losing his balance, clumsily rushing forward.

By then, Top Noob had realized his blunder. He promptly controlled his mech to attempt a 'Thomas Salto' to rise, precisely because of his blunder, he decided to redeem his reputation with this move, showing the people around him the results of half a month's training.

Wow!

The complete newbie's fluid action was a practiced one, something prepared and not adaptable to unpredictable situations. It was very much a standard operating procedure, but he still succeeded, instantly eliciting screams from the ladies around him.

The fat man's mecha was still clumsily charging forward. He quickly rotated his titanium alloy blade to reduce force, attempting to regain balance through centripetal force, which looked quite comical, as if he was spinning a shot put.

This guy is just too hilarious. Many people had just managed to hold back their laughter, only to burst out again at the fat man's antics.

"Heh, so this is the 'expert' you were talking about." Disdain was evident on the face of the man who had been talking to him earlier.

But he couldn't laugh a second later as the screen presented a shattered crack, with a squeaking sound, the battle was declared over...

The winner, Battlefield's Reminiscence.

Hey, what the hell? Everyone was baffled by the newbie's defeat, not comprehending how the fight could end so abruptly without even knowing how he died. At least no one saw the fat man draw his gun, and given the distance, it would take at least a couple of seconds even to charge.

But, it was over.

The guy who had just been mocking 'Battlefield's Reminiscence' felt the abrupt end too. He hadn't even noticed how it ended until everyone replayed the battle footage, watched in slow motion, and finally realized that the opponent's mecha had indeed lost its balance, lunging forward clumsily. But being off-balance didn't mean it couldn't attack.

As he was rotating his titanium alloy blade, he unexpectedly let the weapon slip from his grasp, plunging it hard into the cockpit of the newbie, bringing the game to an awkward and unelaborate end.

Damn, hit even while lying down? How unlucky does one have to be? You see, the fat man was stumbling, his attempt at drawing the blade was confused and hesitant; he was clearly not familiar with this mecha and might have even been a beginner. For the first time, the newbie questioned his earlier guess.

Was this guy just bluffing?

A line appeared in the public barrage: "Come on, let's continue."

It only took a few seconds for the fat man to leisurely type out a string of words: "You're trash, I'm not fighting you anymore."

Damn! No way, the numbskull who made such a ridiculous move is calling the newbie trash? Damn it, the newbie's blood pressure spiked as he retorted angrily: "You're the trash, dare to continue?"

"I'm not interested in you. You're not even a beginner driver, find someone tougher."

Hearing this, the newbie's rage intensified. Although he was rated as a novice driver in the game, to be told he wasn't even a beginner was an insult, a humiliation, a profound humiliation. The newbie sent a barrage: "Another match."

"No thanks."

"Trash, dare to have another round with me?"

"Nope, nope, unless we bet money."

Damn! He even dares to gamble? The newbie perked up instantly upon hearing this. Usually, those who bet on Star Wars are experts, like the ones sitting around him. He knew his own level, but the opponent was even worse, and their mecha was the Phantom Knight. To think that a dunce like that would dare to talk about betting money with him, well, that's perfect.
