Indeed, some people often take themselves for granted, and the Revenge Shadow Rider does have a habit of allowing opponents to take the initiative. This is not just a strategy, but an attitude, a spirit of learning and tolerance when dealing with opponents.
In this world, many people take the Revenge Shadow Rider's humility as a given, as if the Shadow Rider is supposed to be submissive. Yet looking at the world at large, how many can maintain the spirit of focusing solely on the battle at hand as the Revenge Shadow Rider does?
Both parties remain firm and efficient in their stand-off. As the temperature rises, the brows of the twelve-star generals in the guest seats furrow deeper. The crowd has already identified that the Revenge Shadow Rider is using the Phantom Army Breaker, a battle technique known for its no-retreat, all-out offensive approach.
If Seven Deadly Slashes is a rare offensive technique of the Diya Alliance that creates a multi-dimensional attack confusion with its numerous phantom images, the Army Breaking Kill is definitely considered the diadem of Hell's Gate's top-level mecha mano-a-mano fight. This technique's advantage lies in gradually accumulating sheer attack power during the offensive and stacking it indefinitely. As the frequency of the attack increases, the power increases. When the momentum accumulates to its peak, even an ace pilot cannot withstand the cumulative offensive power of the Army Breaking Kill.
Any mistake made by either side in this dual test of physical strength and mental fortitude would have unimaginable consequences.
In a stroke of bad luck, the technique Andre uses does indeed counter the Army Breaking Kill. Faced with seven clones attacking at the same time, the Revenge Shadow Rider cannot transform the single-target Army Breaking Kill into a sweeping tide of power.
The average operational speed of the Shadow Rider has soared to 590 cards, which is several times more than that of Andre's. Even so, Phantom Knight 0001's heavy body can barely keep up with the excellent operational feel of Fury. A good mecha is extremely important in battle.
The fans of Team Shadow Rider were pale from fright. The gap in the configuration of the mechas was simply too large. Every previous battle had been thrilling, but none had been like this one, a pure testament of raw strength.
In a swift motion, the Revenge Shadow Rider used the final Whirlwind Slash of the first strike of the Army Breaking Kill. The attack was not urgent, yet it seemed inevitable. The whirlwind consisted of three overlapping phantom images, leaving you clueless as to which whirlwind was real and which was phantom.
The blade disappeared in a flash, managing to strike the target. Yet the attack made by the Revenge Shadow Rider missed its mark, its simple and direct attacks seeming like a beautiful painting hitting only air.
The Revenge Shadow Rider consecutively launches the second strike of Army Breaking Kill, Cross-Slash. As he defends, a Titanium Alloy Sword is swung out of thin air, narrowly avoiding Andre's grip on the offensive. But it misses again, only managing to hit Andre's phantom.
The third strike, Razor Wind, booms...
The Titanium Alloy Sword slashes heavily into the ground, causing a great muffled roar. However, Andre is fully aware of the terror and massive consumption of the Army Breaking Kill and chooses not to engage head-on.
The fourth, fifth, sixth, and final strikes…
When the Revenge Shadow Rider launches the Army Breaking Assault, the hearts of the netizens of Hell's Gate are invariably stirred. Their excitement could no longer be contained, every one of them secretly cheering for the Revenge Shadow Rider.
With all else aside, the fact that the Revenge Shadow Rider can use Army Breaking Kill to defeat Diya Alliance's Seven Deadly Slashes in itself proves the formidable strength of Hell's Gate's mecha combat.
The Army Breaking Assault carries an awe-inspiring momentum, like a roaring battlefield assault made in the front lines. This top-level battle technique has evolved through countless battles, and people can almost see numerous heroic spirits charging forward, the brave and fearless warriors fighting on the front lines, presenting an epic chapter that is both sorrowful and inspiring by paying the price of their lives and spilling their blood.
The simple yet daunting aura carried in the Revenge Shadow Rider's attack is indeed shocking.
But the Fury moves around the Shadow Rider like a lithe snake, his experience making him hard to deal with. The 'white snake's spit' always comes at the most tricky angle to guard against in the Revenge Shadow Rider, making this a tight face-off between sword and shield, where one is bound to be injured. Whether or not the Shadow Rider can cut down his opponent at the peak of the Army Breaking Kill, or Andre can cleverly win this dance-around, everything is still an unknown.
Everyone's eyes were riveted on the big screen, afraid to miss any detail, gasping...
As the Army Breaking Assault reached its climax, the final slashing of the shock could sweep away everything, one second later, there was nothing left around the Shadow Rider, along with Andre and the Fury, they all disappeared.
No! It's impossible, Andre didn't explode when he disappeared, and no substantial image of him was seen.
While people were still exclaiming about Andre's whereabouts, a Mecha without any signs of life appeared out of thin air from behind the Shadow Rider - yes, this was the ultimate secret of the Seven Deadly Slashes. Actually, the four duplicates should have been divided into eight clones. The Seven Deadly Slashes had eight clones in total. But the Revenge Shadow Rider only managed to cut seven, no one would have thought that Andre's clone, overlapped with his own image, was hiding in the surroundings through stealth techniques.
Andre's timing of the sneak attack was just right, in a split second he had silently stabbed his knife towards the Shadow Rider. This strike was impossible to block. Not only were both sides within arm's reach, even if the Revenge Shadow Rider used all his power systems he couldn't escape Andre's lock-on range. His situation was precarious.
The Shadow Rider seemed to sense something, his body feigned a move, hissing...
A titanium alloy knife was thrust mercilessly into the abdomen of the Phantom Knight 0001, boom! Accompanied by a roar, the fight ended, the Shadow Rider's ID dimmed.
The fight was over.
So, the Shadow Rider didn't make it to the end? At this point, the players were incredibly disappointed. Even Hans found it hard to believe what had just happened. The titanium alloy knife was just calmly thrust into the Shadow Rider's abdomen, and then everything went dark. Hans felt as if the world had lost all its color. He couldn't understand why it had turned out this way. He had suspected that the Revenge Shadow Rider couldn't make it to the end with only the 0001, but the reality still hit him hard, and he slumped dejectedly into his soft chair, staring blankly.
If he could do it all over again, he would not oppose the fans' suggestions to change the Shadow Rider's Mecha. If he could turn back time, he would prefer the Shadow Rider not to participate in this battle at all, but there are no do-overs in this world - even if God came down, he couldn't change anything. If this was a dream, he wished he could wake up early.
A cigar had burned down to his hand, Hans didn't notice until the pain was too intense. He opened his two fingers to throw away the stub, only the blisters that bulged proved he was still alive.
Sometimes, Hans also thought about whether he should change his profession? Perhaps this job was not suitable for him. He was tired of his boring, busy life every day without the Shadow Rider. You could say, the only reason Hanna stayed in this position was to wait for the Revenge Shadow Rider. He wanted to do something for the Shadow Rider, but alas, perhaps, the Revenge Shadow Rider would never log in again.
Ding dong, the system notification sounded in time. The funereal music made Hans not want to listen anymore, he took off his headset and was about to throw it away.
"Winner, Revenge Shadow Rider."
Hans, who had just braced himself to throw hard at the ground, suddenly stopped his hand, causing him to twist his waist. But he paid no attention to the pain in his waist, gritted his teeth, straightened up and looked at the big screen in case he had heard wrong.
As a result, he had not heard wrong.
The system showed a slow-motion close-up. Yes, Andre had indeed stabbed into the lower abdomen of the Revenge Shadow Rider, but there was some distance from the cockpit. It was not Andre's action that mattered, but the Revenge Shadow Rider's final fake out attack.
Despite exhausting all his Army Breaking kills, his momentum was still strong. Just when Andre was about to sneak in for the attack, he was suddenly bisected by the Revenge Shadow Rider's dragged sword slash. That explosion was not from the Phantom Knight 0001, it was the Fury's demise...
"Fuck it!" Hans, with a force he didn't know he had, violently threw his headset on the ground, and then added two kicks. As if without two more steps, he wouldn't have vented his frustrations. Seeing this scene was enough, only at this moment did he realize the pain in his waist, only then did he realize the blister had swelled up, a shriek like a pig being slaughtered echoed in the room.
