Chapter 113 : Red Moon Snow Plain
"So many people."
Chen Sui looked at the crowd behind her, calmly remarking. She had just stood up from the ground, switching her long spear for a cannon. "Ah Xue, control Saint Laurent."
Gu Qinxue disengaged from her battle with Na Luo River. Puluo's shield umbrella spun around, blocking in front of her.
The energy cannon charged, waiting for Chen Sui to mark the target.
Seeing the golden mecha flying forward, Chen Sui fired her cannon. Gu Qinxue marked the position for her, following immediately after.
The energy cannon triggered the Fierce Fire Star Stone's energy. As the fire cannon exploded, flames instantly spread across the plaza, burning with intense heat. The mecha damage levels rapidly increased within it.
"Suisui, enter the station!"
Gu Qinxue lashed out her Thorny Fire Whip, her mecha rushing toward Chen Sui's position. The fire whip encircled the station door.
Xie Chunshi's energy-reducing knife deflected Na Luo River's cannon in front of him, the long knife clashing with Xie You's heavy sword.
The two mechas engaged in midair, blade light and sword shadows dancing, casting cold gleams under the red moon.
Seeing Gu Qinxue trying to create an opportunity for Chen Sui below, Xie Chunshi's attacks grew more fierce. The energy-reducing knife's ring vibrated, dispersing the energy charged in Xie You's heavy sword. The black gold mecha showed no mercy, kicking to the side.
The crimson mecha was kicked flying. He Lanqi's mecha was repelled by Zhou Chen, her hand stopping Xie You. They both looked downward.
After repelling Xie You, Xie Chunshi rushed toward Chen Sui, who was fighting one against five. Gu Qinxue's Thorny Fire Whip encircled the station door, which was closing toward the center.
"Stop Chen Sui, don't let Zhu Jing Fu seize the opportunity."
Xie You's hand covered the spot where Xie Chunshi had kicked him.
This was the first time he had been hit by his older brother.
Xie You rationally knew this scene would happen sooner or later on the battlefield, but when it actually occurred, his mind was still somewhat confused.
In the pocket of his combat suit was a safety charm paper that had already yellowed and faded.
Touching the corner of the folded charm paper in his pocket, Xie You's eyes grew deeper.
"Simos, Xiao Er, control the analyst."
Na Luo River's agile attacker and strong attacker quickly disengaged from the battle. Simos pulled the ring on his shoulder, drawing out a second cannon hidden in the mecha. The long cannon spewed a large flame, the silhouette of the long rainbow mouse flashed, and a gale blew, sending the raging fire toward the base station door, wreathing it in white smoke.
Chen Sui's vision in front of her blurred. Before she could see clearly, her hair suddenly stood on end, and she instinctively bent over and lowered her body.
"Whoosh—"
Na Luo River's crimson mecha flashed out from the white mist. Xiao Er gripped a dagger, directly slicing through the space in front of her, carrying an extremely sharp blade wind.
His strike missed, and he immediately twisted the dagger in his palm, stabbing downward. Chen Sui spun around, her speed extremely fast!
Her figure rose from behind the dagger, her wrist precisely capturing Xiao Er's knife-wielding hand in midair.
She exerted force with her wrist, folding the mecha hand backward.
The arm was pulled, the forearm twisted outward, a sense of losing control came over him. Xiao Er's dagger slipped from his hand, and he heard the analyst's voice: "No weapon? Then to be fair, I won't use one either."
As soon as she finished speaking, a whooshing sound exploded in the space before him. The long spear was put away by Chen Sui.
Just as the immense strength left Xiao Er's arm, a massive pain suddenly transmitted from his abdomen.
Chen Sui had punched him.
It was an iron fist that could smash energy shields. Xiao Er's pupils contracted, and he instinctively defended with combat moves.
But the black gold mecha moved too quickly. His thrown punches were always intercepted by Chen Sui's long legs, directly blocked in midair.
At the same time, the black gold mecha's other leg kicked toward his chest. Just as Xiao Er's mecha flew out, she pulled him back.
This action made Xiao Er show some confusion.
But soon, he understood why Chen Sui had done this.
The Zhu Jing Fu analyst, using the white smoke created by Na Luo River's explosion, pressed the Na Luo River agile attacker all the way to the monitoring station door.
The other Zhu Jing Fu members tied up the other teams in the plaza. Saint Laurent, arriving a step late, was controlled on the outskirts by Gu Qinxue's energy cannon and Xie Chunshi's quantum cannon.
As the white smoke began to disperse, everyone could see that the Zhu Jing Fu analyst was less than three meters from the door.
Noya's eyes glanced over, quickly discovering the anomaly.
Chen Sui appeared to be tied up by Xiao Er, but in reality, it was Xiao Er being pressed by her.
Noya instantly understood he had been played. He didn't bother using the team channel, instead shouting loudly around him: "Stop Chen Sui, she's trying to enter the station!"
Chen Sui had already approached the door. Just as she was about to kick Xiao Er away, Noya's shout immediately directed all the surrounding cannons to fire at her.
Chen Sui's eyes flashed with several strong beams. She looked at Xiao Er: "Oh? Then I'm really sorry, I originally could have let you fly more comfortably."
Xiao Er was being kicked back and forth by her long legs. His mind was filled with images of being controlled by the green bamboo energy body during their two-person team. Hearing Chen Sui's words, his mind was still somewhat confused.
When he was suddenly kicked away by the black gold mecha's right leg, he saw Chen Sui's cannon aiming at him.
Xiao Er suddenly understood what she wanted to do. His pupils dilated, a sense of crisis rising from the bottom of his heart, instantly making his whole body cold.
This wasn't the first time Xiao Er had felt the warning of a sixth sense during battle, but it was the first time he had directly faced such intense pressure.
Even when surrounded by countless high-level energy bodies at the foot of the Red Moon Snow Plain's snow mountain, he had never felt such strong pressure as now, being targeted by Chen Sui.
Chen Sui aimed in a direction that would minimize Xiao Er's exposure to the many shells firing at her.
The control cannon fired—
In Xiao Er's pupils appeared an energy shell carrying flowing fire. As he flew backward, this moment seemed particularly long.
He could even watch the shell approach bit by bit, until finally a strong light completely covered his vision.
At the moment the control cannon exploded, almost instinctively, Xiao Er mobilized all the energy in his mental domain despite the base station's energy isolation.
"Snow Sprite—"
His low murmur was covered by the surrounding sound of cannon fire.
But as a frost flower appeared on the crimson mecha, the control cannon landed precisely on Xiao Er.
"Boom!!"
As the control cannon exploded, the Snow Sprite drew a large amount of ice attribute energy.
Fire shackles exploded, bursting open along his ice attribute energy, directly freezing all the space in front.
The surrounding firing cannons were all sealed by this immense energy.
"Crack—"
The massive energy carried by the cannons directly exploded within the fire shackle ice seal. The fire shackle wall began to crack.
With the first sound, a series of bursting sounds followed.
All cannons, all blockaded!
Not a single one hit Chen Sui.
The black gold mecha turned around without even taking time to watch the fire shackle wall explode. Without wasting a second, she directly turned and crashed into the monitoring station door.
Gu Qinxue pulled the Thorny Fire Whip.
"Bang!"
The monitoring station door closed.
"Thud!"
The crimson mecha crashed from midair, ice shards splashing. The mecha skidded several meters on the ground, intercepted by Xie You's heavy sword stopping its sliding momentum.
Fire shackles fell to the ground. The surrounding mechas watched this scene, instantly speechless.
Saint Laurent looked at Xie You with mixed feelings, then at Xiao Er on the ground.
His mecha belatedly sounded an alert.
[Damage level: 79%]
"That's some good control," Noya's mouth twitched. "Considering you helped, she didn't eliminate you."
His expression was complex.
Xie You's face was gloomy, his eyes somewhat agitated. He closed his eyes, calming his emotions.
"I understand now, we can't fight Zhu Jing Fu inside the base station."
Xitisi's strong attacker Chi Buyu showed an enlightened expression.
Everyone present deeply agreed.
So to say that Zhu Jing Fu's analyst was invincible in close combat indeed made sense.
In her hands, Xiao Er had no room to struggle. In the end, he was used by the Zhu Jing Fu analyst to act out a play. If not for Noya's shout, everyone would have really thought Xiao Er had restrained Chen Sui.
"Is it over already?"
He Shuangmu tilted his head, somewhat confused. He had just been fighting intensely, and this side was already over?
"Thank you, thank you Na Luo River, thank you Commander Xie, oh, and Brother Xiao Er," Zhou Chen was surrounded by several people, his face covered in wounds. Speaking pulled at his injuries, causing him to let out a light hiss. But even so, he had to be this annoying: "If not for Brother Xiao Er, who knows how many cannon shots our analyst would have taken."
Xie You's just-calmed emotions immediately surged again. He drew his heavy sword, looking toward Zhou Chen: "Not enough? Want a few more rounds?"
Zhou Chen stepped back, retreating behind Xie Chunshi.
With the station door closed, it was basically decided.
The mecha drive sounds died down. Everyone landed from midair, but several rumbling sounds came from the direction of the skybridge.
Ink Hills and Xitisi's three-person teams arrived one after another.
Zhang Yingjie had just entered the scene, sensing the subtle atmosphere. A group of people stood clearly separated from Zhu Jing Fu's four people, with a Na Luo River crimson mecha on the ground covered in fire shackles and ice shards.
Zhang Yingjie pushed his sensory glasses, his tone very calm: "It seems our Ink Hills arrived a step late."
"You placed the monitoring equipment?"
Zhou Chen chuckled a couple times: "Obviously, and we must thank everyone, especially Na Luo River—"
Xie You's hand gripped, the sound of drawing a sword rang out.
Xie Chunshi's eyes contained laughter, one hand locking Zhou Chen's throat, the other covering his mouth.
The Commander's voice carried a slight sigh, sounding on the Zhu Jing Fu team channel: "Say less. If you get gang-beaten later, I can't stop them."
As he spoke, he looked at the inside of the station: "Suisui isn't here right now."
Zhou Chen immediately closed his mouth, making a zipping gesture. After Xie Chunshi released him, he gave a dry laugh.
Song Yuan's gaze slowly swept across the plaza, inferring roughly what had happened through the remaining traces.
"Chen Sui broke through alone?" she asked on the team channel.
Chi Buyu spoke extremely quickly, with an excited and passionate tone, as if commentating a major competition, rapidly explaining the tense and exciting battle that had just occurred.
Song Yuan listened quietly and silently, not interrupting him.
Finally, hearing how Chen Sui had used Xiao Er to detonate the control cannon and block the cannons, she became even more silent.
To be honest, this Zhu Jing Fu analyst, once in a match, was simply a terrifying opponent.
Offensive capability, insight, battle awareness—none had any shortcomings.
Song Yuan slightly furrowed her brow. Before she could speak, a mechanical announcement sounded.
[Energy monitoring equipment has been placed]
[Congratulations to 4702 for successfully challenging the boss]
[This SS-level energy field - Red Moon Snow Plain competition has ended]
[Please exit in an orderly manner]
A pillar of light rose from the monitoring station, and the base station door emitted a beep.
In the control room, Song Xingzhang pulled back his chair and sat down. Ji Qing looked back at him, then heard the middle-aged man with graying hair glance at Jian Run, his voice resonating in the spacious control room.
"So, did they enter this door today?"
Jian Run picked up water and took a sip, coughing a few times to cover his embarrassment.
Tsk, what was with Zhu Jing Fu? Why did they specifically slap faces? Not content with just the StarNet audience, they wouldn't let him off either?
A trace of smile flashed in Song Xingzhang's eyes as he nodded to the other two evaluators. The control room camera switched.
