Ophelia smiled gently. Though Sheng Qiangwei and Amelia might have exceptional gear, the determining factor in a battle was always the pilots themselves. The ups and downs of this tug-of-war fight would gradually reveal itself as time went on.
As a special guest, she remained impartial to both sides. As a participant in this nationwide competition, Ophelia could predict the formidable strength of the Haier Brothers. Their combined abilities in combat were definitely more than the sum of their individual skills. She could foresee the immense pressure their opponents would face.
To any discerning eye, Amelia's mecha might be formidable, but her actual combat skills still fell short of Sheng Qiangwei's.
Sssss...
In the roaring of engines, two Twin bots had already encircled the Demon Sound from different positions. They decided to aim at Emily, of course, only if her real identity was Amelia. She would probably be aware of their typical combat tactics, which was why the Haier Brothers had particularly targeted her.
Too fast! The twins' speed resembled a streak of light.
The Demon Sound abruptly pulled back its sniper rifle and wielded two laser blasters. Like an exquisite dancer, it unleashed a flurry of shots, a 360-degree indiscriminate spray of bullets. Zzzzzt-pop, pop-pop, pop-pop-pop-pop-pop...
A series of lasers burst out, piercing through the atmosphere and disappearing into the vast cosmos. No matter how Amelia exhausted all her tricks, she couldn't simultaneously stop the advancing steps of both brothers. The Haier Brothers were on a different level from ordinary players. They were high-level fighters on the brink of reaching Red Cloak status in Galactic Warfare. The Twin bots kept assaulting the Demon Sound while dodging its attacks.
The smoky battlefield devolved into a sea of fire. Continuous ballistic fire and the unique frequency of lasers added a harsh chill to the silent battlefield.
Naturally, Sheng Qiangwei was not going to sit idly by. After just three shots by the Demon Sound, the Murdurous Prelude suddenly burst onto the battlefield, preemptively intercepting the twins. The twin mecha's models were identical, and Sheng Qiangwei couldn't determine which one was older and which one was younger Haier. Her intel had revealed that older Haier favored long-range sniping, while younger Haier preferred close combat. This crucial information made Sheng Qiangwei more cautious in dealing with the Twin bots. She drew her laser gun and began probing them.
However, her opponents had no intention of tangling with her. They performed a Z-move right around Sheng Qiangwei and directly pursued Amelia.
The audience gasped in astonishment. One of the Haier Brothers just performed the high-level evasion technique of a Z-move. It might sound simple, but in actual combat, a slightest miscalculation could have you moving right into the line of fire.
While the twin bot was executing the Z-move, it also risked crashing into the line of fire due to a misstep. But apparently, their execution was very commendable.
Swoosh...
As one of the twin bots passed by Sheng Qiangwei, the Murderous Prelude abruptly drew its alloy blade and landed a blow in stride. Amelia laughed; Sheng Qiangwei laughed too. This was one of the tactics they had planned. Alternatively, it could be said that Sheng Qiangwei deliberately delayed a few seconds to give the Haier Brothers an opportunity, and then launched a sneak attack at a critical moment.
Boom...
The alloy sword hadn't even landed its chop when a crisp clang rang out. The weapon was bounced off by the Knight's Shield. Sheng Qiangwei's offensive was not deterred by the recoil of the weapon. Her chopping attack did not slow down. She spun back, repeated her former technique, and instantaneously noticed a stealth shot emerging from a corner of the battlefield.
Their attack was just building up, and the Haier brothers' coordinated efforts had already arrived. They were completely in sync.
Screech...
The Murderous Prelude launched another offensive and lunged forward, brandishing its alloy blade in an attempt to free Emily. However, the speed of the twin bots was even faster; in an instant, the mecha that had brushed past her earlier had already vanished hundreds of meters away.
The Murderous Prelude wasted no time. She grabbed the alloy blade, waved it, and astonishingly hurled the weapon away.
My God! Weapon hurling; this was the signature move of the Revenge Shadow Rider. It was surprising to see Sheng Qiangwei playing this move too.
The titanium alloy blade, mixed with the sound of tearing through the air, aimed directly at the former's back. However, the twin bot agilely rotated its body and narrowly dodged it. Sweat trickled down older Haier's forehead. Had it not been for the telepathic bond between him and his brother letting him sense his younger brother's thoughts in time, he would hardly have evaded that attack.
In an attempt to take down the Demon Sound, the twins braced themselves to take a hit. The defense of the bot model was likely to withstand a major weapon attack once, and defend against laser attacks twice. However, it could not resist the direct cutting brought about by the heavy titanium alloy under any circumstances.
As older Haier dodged, the thrown titanium alloy blade lunged towards Amelia.
The movements of the Demon Sound seemed to halt as if it didn't notice the attack, not until the titanium alloy blade was about to touch the Demon Sound did Amelia suddenly lean backward to narrowly dodge the flying blade.
In the blink of an eye, the titanium blade had shadowed into younger Haier's field of vision. His rapidly dilating and contracting pupils only had the growing shadow of the weapon. It turned out that the target of the Murderous Prelude wasn't his older brother nor Amelia, but himself.
Dangerous! Nobody expected that the Haier brothers, known for their coordination, would be tricked twice in front of two female players. Under the intelligent control of two Gundam bots with 300-card capabilities, the Haier brothers found themselves in a passive state.
