The Phantom Knight 0001 is a Mech that the common man can't comfortably operate. It's a relic: a heavy and a singular attacker. It is useless without its equivalent armor. Yet, the Revenge Shadow Rider manages to kill enemies with one swift knee jab. Those familiar with Mechas understand what that means - his strength has likely reached the Red Robe Level.

Under the intense scrutiny of countless eyes, the Shadow Rider chooses to continue ignoring the challenge. However, a mere 20 minutes fly by, and the next four opponents he gets—stronger than the last—fall under his power within seconds. Among these adversaries was a well-known game host with an Overall Evaluation of 'God-like.'

Who would have expected that before the host had time to prepare, the fight was over. A laser strike set off a bomb, leading to a chain reaction that caused the enemy's Mech to explode instantly. Everyone thought that the end would be more epic; instead, it was shockingly quick.

The spectators from the Silver Alliance all looked puzzled, muttering among themselves. Could the Revenge Shadow Rider who consistently played a defensive game really make an active strike?

Everyone thought it was natural for the Shadow Rider to retreat, completely oblivious that Feng Yi was only retreating to observe and learn. After several lightning-quick battles, he abandoned his initial idea. Despite the Silver Alliance's commendable combat skills, they were pointless at Feng Yi's level. So, he made the decision for a quick resolution.

When did the Federation have a warrior so strong? The explosive increase in viewers quickly captured the attention of the officials at Warfire. As is well-known, Warfire was an official military game designated by the Silver Alliance. It must have real-life masters among them. They had to save face, so they couldn't let the Revenge Shadow Rider just win.

When matching with the 39th opponent, a name with an eye-catching ID suddenly appeared!

Game Nickname: Unidentified Shooter

Record: 1020 wins, 0 losses, 0 ties

Preferred Mech: Striker Ghost

Power Evaluation: Supreme Champion

The Striker Ghost, the Silver Alliance's main combat model, is known for remote strikes and is referred to as an 'ultra sight killer.' Despite the model's somewhat weak close combat ability, do not underestimate the driver. Unidentified Shooter has made the Striker Ghost the Supreme Champion, proof of its awesome remote operation skills.

With each wave of roaring outside of the arena becoming bigger than the last, discussions about the Unidentified Shooter rose among the Silver Alliance audience, as even the commentators from the Silver Alliance stepped in. Of course, before commentating they did a quick background check on the Revenge Shadow Rider. However, they couldn't say anything directly, so their evaluation was very conservative. The mysterious player Phantom Knight 0001 was walking into a big challenge and probably going to fail. This put the commentators on the side of the Silver Alliance.

The silent Shadow Rider regiment did not show strong emotions. There was a feeling of emptiness at reaching the endpoint and a quiet tribute to this intense excitement. It was like a cup of bitter tea, which became more concentrated the more you savored it.

Many Federation users who had just entered the video stream saw that familiar ID and felt sadness. The very same death that had accompanied the Revenge Shadow Rider's growth and progress showed that it had never really left.

There were rumors that the Shadow Rider would never log on again, that it had created one myth after another and had no need to risk its life. But many firmly believed that the time would come for its return. If you ask why, it was undoubtedly because that was the Revenge Shadow Rider - the unshakeable faith in people's hearts. Even stronger opponents awaited the Shadow Rider in the future.

It was unlikely that the reason behind the 'Revenge' Shadow Rider ID was straightforward. Although it was unclear why it was named "Revenge," it was undoubtedly significant. He must be on the side of justice.

Now: here he is back again, more potent than ever. Look at 0001's cold, mechanical body. A fiery seed seemed to transform into a beacon of faith, illuminating around the Shadow Rider. It was an otherwise silent warrior, but at that moment, people could feel the life inside the Shadow Rider. They could feel the eruption of its redemption mission!

The standoff between both sides kicked off in a lush jungle battlefield. The tall wild grass made everyone's heart pound...

The 0001's stealth factor was destined to make the Revenge Shadow Rider a passive target. For a shooter, the scales of victory were tipping heavily in their favor. The Phantom was the ultimate stealth unit. The Revenge Shadow Rider didn't notice it at first in jungle warfare, and the 0001's detection system is nearly entirely ineffective.

Through interwoven thorns and weeds, the end of a cold sniper rifle quietly peeks out. The first hit rate is essential in sniping battles. Once the energy gathers instantly, the energy reaction appears in the surrounding area immediately followed by the sound of stored power that was off-putting. This was the Unidentified Shooter's fatal blow.

The energy reaction appeared in the 0001's detector promptly. The Shadow Rider didn't try to find the energy's location. Instead, he threw himself in one direction.

Boom...

A thunderous sound echoed in the ears. The screen was immediately engulfed by dust. Nobody knew how the Shadow Rider was hit or its condition, but the mech was stuck in mid-air. A passive Shadow Rider had to face the second electromagnetic sniper shot after the Unidentified Shooter...

Squeak... Boom...

A cloud of black rose into the sky. However, the attack had no effect. The playback on the large screen showed that at the last moment, the sniper bullet was intercepted midway by the Knight's Shield thrown out by the Shadow Rider.

The Unidentified Shooter froze in disbelief. To predict his sniper trajectory under such conditions and to counter it with the shield was no small feat.

After the second failed sneak attack, the Striker Ghost didn't hesitate and immediately chose to retreat. It would not have been wise to fight the 0001 in melee given the performance of its Mech. Going into hiding and again launching a lethal attack was an advantageous move.

However, to the surprise of the spectators, the Shadow Rider had no plans to chase him. He drew his laser gun and targeted the energy reaction location with several laser shots.

With each laser burst disappearing into the woods, the spectators wondered if the Shadow Rider lost his mind, recklessly firing his weapon.

"You can't just run after you've put on a show." The crunching, crackling noise abruptly ended with a loud explosion! The battle was over. The Striker Ghost had blown up, and the 'supreme champion,' the Unidentified Shooter, had 'crashed' after only 10 seconds into the fight.

All the Silver Alliance spectators were left dumbfounded... Why? The highlight playback on the big screen showed that the Shadow Rider's consecutive shots had entirely blocked the Striker Ghost's escape route. It turned out that the Unidentified Shooter wasn't escaping because he had nowhere to run, even though he was hidden in the dense jungle. The Shadow Rider's attack wasn't based on sight.

This was ironic. From the start of the real battle to its end, it took less than ten seconds. This was the ultimate champion. The incredible super genius known for his long-range shooting was beaten by the Shadow Rider with a few shots.
