There's much in this world that is shrouded in mystery, and the Revenge Shadow Rider is undeniably one of them. His strength is recognized worldwide, and while people tend to adore him for his charismatic personality, their worship often revolves around his jaw-dropping, last-minute turnarounds and unpredictable strategies.
As a warrior, you might have never operated a Mecha, stepped onto a battlefield, or even known who the Revenge Shadow Rider truly is, but you would certainly have heard the rumors about him.
To a certain extent, the Federation has used various methods to diminish the influence of the Revenge Shadow Rider in the hearts of the people. Even discussions about him have decreased recently. Instead, the news features more on super soldiers and Feng Yi's fleet, such as Hugo's heroic spirit of sacrifice, and the drama-filled escape saga of the Blazing Legion's fleet that is enough to make a tear-jerking novel.
Yet the admiration for the Shadow Rider that lies deep within people's hearts is unshakable. When he stepped out to accept Mengdie's challenge at 0001, his status in the hearts of the people not only remained unchanged but even grew, achieving an unparalleled peak. Isn't that what everyone had been anticipating?
However, it cannot be denied that there's a certain spousal resemblance between the two as well. One wears a black mask radiating an imposing presence, while the other dons a silver veil exuding grace and poise. One is taciturn, the other silent and indifferent; a pairing of an assassin in black with a mysterious, partially concealed beauty.
Upon closer analysis, one could see some similarities between the Revenge Shadow Rider and General Feng — whether in their gaze, looks, or actions. But a closer look reveals subtle differences, leading to some strange illusions about their identities.
In fact, none of these things are important. What's most significant is that the Revenge Shadow Rider is not a computer but a living, breathing person — a black-clad warrior with an awe-inspiring coolness. What could be more thrilling than these facts?
Yet, industry experts have also made their speculations. Should the Revenge Shadow Rider accept this challenge? The answer is undoubtedly no. It's not because of fear, as very few in the world are his match and those who are lie in a similar sphere of strength. Yet, no one dares say they could defeat him. In other words, whether the Revenge Shadow Rider shows up or not won't affect his popularity. He has already proven his strength, and this taunting might very well be a trap set by Saudi.
After all, Revenge Shadow Rider has foiled Saudi's plans on several occasions. One can't help but wonder if this is Saudi's vengeful challenge towards him. Hence, Revenge Shadow Rider shouldn't and doesn't need to respond to the challenge. While it may seem like a blow to the morale of his supporters, that's just the reality of the situation.
When the topic moves beyond battle, the range of discussions widens significantly. The debate about this fight has sky-rocketed, with everyone eager to see how it unfolds. After all, those who watch the drama unfold aren't afraid of a big spectacle, and aside from the Federation and Saudi, most people are just bystanders enjoying the show.
On top of that, many seasoned experts from professional military forums have raised doubts. Would Saudi stoop so low as to deceive the entire world because of the Revenge Shadow Rider? It doesn't seem logical, which then leads to another puzzle — who in Saudi could face the Revenge Shadow Rider? It seems improbable, as the Revenge Shadow Rider is no longer an entity that can be defeated by a single person.
In the Saudi Advanced Command Room, Jiu Ling and Xia Mu were at their wit's end, their brows knitted so tightly together as if they were one. Could the upper echelons really find an opponent for the Revenge Shadow Rider? Not to mention Saudi, even they themselves dared not contemplate such a prospect.
Black Peak was now a free agent. Long ago, under pressure from Kexiao, the Military Department ultimately reinstated Black Peak's freedom. Black Peak, silent as always, slipped into contemplation... Despite his wild and unruly nature and his pride backed by substantial prowess, even the self-assured Black Peak found himself at a loss against the Revenge Shadow Rider. The level of pressure he exudes is something Jiu Ling and Xia Mu couldn't begin to imagine. Black Peak couldn't figure out if the Military Department's move was just a smokescreen or something more substantial.
The electronic doors silently slid open to the sides as Kexiao entered the room. "What is everyone gathered here for?"
Xia Mu responded, "Kexiao, at this crucial moment, you don't seem to be the least bit worried."
"Heh, why should I be worried?"
"Aren't you afraid that the Revenge Shadow Rider won't come? Moreover, if he does come, how should we deal with him?"
"Heh, whether he comes or not, it doesn't make much of a difference to me, a demoted commander stripped of his rank."
Kexiao shook his head with a wry smile, signaling everyone to keep calm. He was powerless in this matter, but perhaps it would be a good thing for Saudi if the Revenge Shadow Rider didn't show up at the appointed time. After all, the whereabouts of Feng Yi's fleet were unknown...
The Military Department seemed utterly panicked on the surface, but they had long harbored suspicions about Feng Yi's identity. Precisely because the whereabouts of Feng Yi's fleet were unknown, they chose this moment to announce the specifics of the challenge to the Revenge Shadow Rider. If the Revenge Shadow Rider fails to appear, it might actually work out better than if he did show up. On the surface, this seems to be just a face-saving, vengeful challenge, but on a deeper level, it's likely to deal a fundamental blow to the morale of the Federation.
