Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 427: Thrilling_1


"Revenge Shadow Rider, Revenge Shadow Rider..." Someone in the square started to shout the name of the Revenge Shadow Rider, it started with one person, then a hundred, and then thousands...

General Greedy Wolf shrugged helplessly, the military department had to carry this responsibility now. How did the idol project turn into a personal promotion show for the Revenge Shadow Rider in the end?

However, Greedy Wolf was also quite surprised. The Revenge Shadow Rider was able to reach the final level of the hundred-level test, even the old generals began to doubt whether this was a computer.

The official commentators were completely dumbfounded, their eyes glued to the screen, not knowing what to say, their astonishment rendering their commentary redundant.

As the Revenge Shadow Rider approached the endpoint, the pressure they faced increased. The enemy's firepower began to pour in from all directions, covering 0001, and there were no absolute blind spots. Evading was simply unrealistic; this was beyond the limits of human brain computation.

It must be known that when light passes through the retina and then through the brain, a certain delay is required. This time gap is very brief, perhaps only one-tenth of a second. However, the Revenge Shadow Rider had already turned into a phantom, constantly weaving through the dense firepower. At times, they lifted their knife to block, at other times they parried and dodged. More often, they spent their time twisting their body slightly to cause the incoming firepower to deflect.

This was an unbelievable sight. The bigwigs of the FCA alliance could only stare, their eyes wide open. Even the opposing alliances were completely dumbfounded. How had they managed to do this, and with a 0001 that performed complex movements 30% more difficult than conventional main war machines at that?

The main brain showed that the Revenge Shadow Rider was currently enduring a terrifying average weight of 18 times gravity, with the limit for high torque being 32 times. This astoundingly large number was cause for disbelief. 12-star generals were already OUT. Their individual combat strength had definitely reached the standard of the ace pilots.

Unfortunately, the glorious days of Revenge Shadow Rider were coming to an end, and one always had to pay the price for one's actions. The Federation had been playing around, finally catching themselves in their own trap. This was a very sad topic. It was very unlikely that the Revenge Shadow Rider would pass all levels of the hundred-level test. The computer would do everything to stop the Revenge Shadow Rider; the system parameters settings were unchangeable.

Hiss hiss hiss hiss...

Three ground-to-air missiles appeared mysteriously in the void. These were the most threatening strategic weapons to the Revenge Shadow Rider, with a lethal radius of 3000 meters. Under the endless firepower, it wasn't just hard for the Revenge Shadow Rider to escape, it was difficult to even move.

At this point, three Tomahawk missiles had already taken a triangular position and were falling from three different directions. Being in the middle of the battlefield, the Revenge Shadow Rider only had one choice, to wait for their demise or to change the battlefield. The problem was that they could only count if they could move out. Apart from air missiles, there were also ground vehicles like the Desert Tiger and unmanned self-propelled artillery, as well as various equipment that you've seen and never seen, launching a merciless attack on the Shadow Rider.

Shadow Rider let out a loud burst, raising a hand and firing a shot. The laser beam was like a razor-sharp sword with eyes, accurately deflecting off of the missile launcher several kilometers away through consecutive ricochets.

The audience from all countries exclaimed once again! In such a chaotic battlefield, it was terrifying that the Shadow Rider could retain such a calm observation and exquisite action.

However, the laser weapon beam wouldn't inflict substantial damage on the three missiles. At this time, the Revenge Shadow Rider made a decision that no one dared to think about: they abruptly turned and accelerated directly toward the direction of the closest missile….

Had they gone mad? Even the strongest Mecha couldn't compete with a strategic missile, not even a super Mecha's energy defense could, let alone a 0001. Or had the world gone mad? Maybe there wasn't a single normal person in the Federation. A crazy Revenge Shadow Rider and a group of fanatic followers who were enthusiastic about the crazy Shadow Rider, the foreign media had completely exploded!

But the Shadow Rider fans weren't surprised at all by Shadow Rider's actions. Had the Shadow Rider ever given fewer surprises? There must be a reason to do this. Although they couldn't guess how it would end, believing in the Revenge Shadow Rider was the right thing to do.

The Revenge Shadow Rider suddenly abandoned all defense and increased their speed to the limit. Accompanied by heavy metal resonance, the heavy Phantom Knight 0001 emanated a highly distorted sound.

Did the Revenge Shadow Rider plan to rush through? It seemed that no one would believe this. In fact, nobody would believe it, no matter who you told. Firstly, at the maximum speed of 0001, the missiles would hit the ground before they could reach the final barrier. Secondly, the saturated firepower from all sides wouldn't allow the Revenge Shadow Rider to make this choice. Sometimes in life, there's only one chance. But the Revenge Shadow Rider was really doing it.

During the charge, the Revenge Shadow Rider casually drew a titanium alloy knife. Then suddenly, a spin, a build-up of power, a swing, and buzz...

A flicker of light vanished in the blink of an eye, followed by a resonant rumble... Instantly, the titanium alloy blade collided with the missile that was rapidly descending from the void, as if alive. If the devastating power of the titanium alloy blade was combined with the precision of the Revenge Shadow Rider, reminiscent of the legendary flying dagger Li Xunhuan, it might genuinely be able to intercept it.

Boom...

The sky was filled with a brilliant mushroom cloud, as the system presented a detailed slow-motion view. People saw a 0001 model, with its speed unimpeded amidst the chaos, and even its forward rhythm was unaffected. The explosion only knocked its frame a bit before it quickly returned to its original state.

However, the firepower surrounding the Revenge Shadow Rider was too intense. It was a mix of manmade weapons, biomimetic mecha, and unknown weapons firing from all directions. As the Shadow Rider neared his endpoint, terrifying scars began appearing around him. Most horrifying was an arm. The Revenge Shadow Rider had melted half of it to avoid more critical damage, using a localized heat pressure bomb.

As it got closer to its final destination, everyone had their hearts in their throats—would it succeed? No one knew. The official opinion of the level 100 challenge was that success was impossible. Though this might have been exaggerated for political reasons, its difficulty was undeniable. Any small mistake, even by a Shadow Rider-level fighter, could lead to failure.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The Revenge Shadow Rider made it through again, dashing madly through a cluster of enemies with the not-so-agile 0001 model frame, evading hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of bullets by a hair's breadth.

While it was even closer to the endpoint and people were hopeful for its success, a sudden wave of energy burst from the gate a second before its arrival. Everything en route was shattered or overturned, and some mechas in the center of the wave had been completely melted.

Feng Yi was shocked. The level 100 challenge was indeed brutal. He had already reached his limit maintaining his peak state until now after breaking through into the Intermediate Legendary Realm. If his performance still wasn't enough, then it truly was impossible. Now, his entire body was slick with sweat, as if soaked in water. He was in pain all over, but he wouldn't give up even the slightest chance.

As the Revenge Shadow Rider and several close-range mechas were sent flying by the energy wave, leaving it no time to react, countless follow-up attacks mercilessly pounded on it.

While it was airborne, the Shadow Rider had nowhere to leverage. It could only temporarily adjust the angle of its mecha using its propulsion device. But this was simply not possible with the characteristics of the 0001 model. Massive fire was already directed towards the Revenge Shadow Rider. It was not that the Shadow Rider wasn't strong, but the person who set up this checkpoint was a devil. It was too heartbreaking. Many netizens of the federation had already cursed countless times.

But the fight continued, so life has to go on. It didn't matter how much they cursed, nothing would change. The next day, you will still be you and the Revenge Shadow Rider would still be unable to change its fate of defeat.

The FCA alliance had mixed feelings. They naturally didn't want the attention-stealing Revenge Shadow Rider to win, especially given its unknown origins and possible affiliation with a terrifying secret organization.

However, watching it slap the faces of their enemies felt satisfying indeed. The rivalry between you has been stiffened, hasn't it? They thought they were seasoned warriors with ace pilots who put on arrogant displays. Now they had not only failed to show off but had instead been trampled on. It was hard to imagine how the so-called ace pilots felt now.

The Revenge Shadow Rider was remarkable, indeed remarkable. No lies or exaggeration could deny that. It was already doing well. But even the strongest have their limits. Clank, clank, clank... As an eerie sound echoed into people's ears, those watching the level 100 challenge became too engrossed to think about anything else. Their attention was entirely drawn to the 0001 model.

As the 0001 model swiveled its body, the Revenge Shadow Rider made a physical impossibility happen—a brief pause mid-spin. It might have been short, but the Revenge Shadow Rider managed to hang in the air using its propulsion device. This terrifying adjustment in a crisis required incredible reflexes and speed.

Whistles and bullets whizzed past the Shadow Rider, narrowly missing it. Many leaders of opposing forces laughed. This round of attacks on the Revenge Shadow Rider was successful, but what about the next one?

Yes, the next round of firepower would be even fiercer than this one. However, they underestimated the Revenge Shadow Rider. They should never give it even a second to respond. For an existence at this level, even a short second can be an eternity.

Now the Revenge Shadow Rider was teaching them a lesson in real defensive counter-attacks with its actions. Without looking, it already knew the directions of the enemy's firepower. The trajectories were etched like ingrained imprints in its mind. While dodging, the Shadow Rider swung its arm twice, lining up a barrage of shots. The whine of bullets echoed...
