The First Analyst of the Interstellar Era

Chapter 133 : Song of Sand and Mirage

From the cannon fire, the black gold mecha suddenly darted out, with black mist gathering into a backdrop around it, only the golden flowing light on the mecha flickering in the air.

Simos's smile instantly froze on his face.

In front of her was the spark created by the collision of two cannon blasts. The mecha charged straight into the cannon fire, then emerged, leaping forward, holding the long spear horizontally in front, sweeping away the surrounding black mist.

Xin Ming's eyes sank as she saw the green light enveloping the black gold mecha's outer layer. She raised her palm, and the puppet doll's image changed to Ghost Flower opening its pistil.

"Ghost Flower, entwine!"

Several vines extended, spiraling toward Chen Sui's mecha.

Simos, watching Chen Sui running rapidly in his direction, the long spear pointing at his position, hurriedly propelled his mecha to move, saying in surprise: "No problem with that? Sister Xin, doesn't your summoning body have confusion attributes?"

Xin Ming's expression was solemn: "In theory, Chen Sui's perception should have been covered!"

Either Chen Sui could already predict cannon positions in a black mist-covered environment without visibility, which would require tremendous battlefield control and combat awareness.

Xin Ming suddenly felt the situation was thorny.

Ghost Flower's vines were nimbly dodged by the black gold mecha.

Seeing Simos dodge, Chen Sui didn't swing her spear but instead drew her cannon as the mecha leaped, firing her fierce fire cannon toward Simos's movement position.

"Damn, Little Sui, you're so vindictive!"

Simos's mecha brushed past the cannon fire.

Chen Sui fired one shot and immediately retreated, moving directly away from the base station.

"Is Chen Sui trying to escape?" Simos asked uncertainly.

His voice sounded in the team channel, and the Commanders of several teams looked toward Chen Sui's position.

Chen Sui's retreat position wasn't hard to guess. Noya and Zhang Yingjie's eyes understood something, and they made judgments in their respective teams.

"The device is on Chen Sui, intercept her!"

"Chen Sui wants to regroup with the other Zhu Jing Fu members, intercept her!"

In front of Zhou Chen, Noya suddenly withdrew his offensive, the golden mecha rushing toward another position.

Zhou Chen shook his hand, several lightning bolts striking him, feeling somewhat numb: "Noya has gone over, Little Sui, can you hold on?"

Chen Sui nodded, glancing at the three Commanders rushing toward her. Except for Song Yuan, the Commanders were also controlling her path. Originally, Chen Sui had planned to regroup with Xie Chunshi, but the path behind was immediately filled with cannon fire.

The analyst's face revealed a smile; this retreat was also deliberately staged by her.

The interception was just right.

"No problem, can you move your position?"

Chen Sui asked.

Zhou Chen was being struck by Chi Buyu's lightning, pretending to struggle. Puluo's shield umbrella spun, the foot soldier carrying the agile attacker directly rolling toward a position.

"There's a chance, there's a chance," Zhou Chen said excitedly.

Puluo retracted his shield umbrella and immediately rushed toward Chen Sui's position.

The long-tailed cat let out a prolonged meow, and Chi Buyu said coldly: "Where do you think you're going?"

Blue-purple lightning fell directly from mid-air, tearing through the crimson sky like a ripped curtain, striking down directly at Puluo's position.

"No one is going anywhere."

Chi Buyu said.

In the Xitisi team channel, Chi Buyu's voice sounded: "Zhang Yingjie and Xie You have gone to find Chen Sui, oh, Noya has gone too, who exactly has the device?"

Song Yuan showed some contemplation.

Xitisi's analyst sensed a fluctuation and hesitantly said: "It seems Chen Sui indeed has fluctuations..."

Song Yuan's eyes focused: "It shouldn't be—"

Before her voice stopped, the thorny fire whip swept across her front.

"Bang!"

The thorny fire whip struck Jing Yao's energy shield, the collision bursting into a layer of fire.

He Chigui's hesitant voice suddenly changed: "Commander, Zhu Jing Fu's strong attacker has device fluctuations!"

Song Yuan's hesitant expression solidified, "It's Gu Qinxue!"

"She covered it up immediately, it should be Gu Qinxue!" He Chigui said in a mellow tone.

Gu Qinxue's subsequent concealment was too much like covering one's ears while stealing a bell.

Song Yuan's eyes flickered, the snake turtle spirit body's phantom flashing, water columns rising to the sky: "Surround Gu Qinxue!"

The Xitisi members retreated and rushed toward Gu Qinxue.

Gu Qinxue was quickly surrounded. After Chi Buyu withdrew, Zhou Chen and Puluo immediately moved toward Gu Qinxue's position.

Lu Ting's lightning split the sky. Seeing this scene, he was somewhat confused and asked in the Na Luo River team channel: "Eh? Why are they all going after Gu Qinxue?"

This question made the Na Luo River members, who were in a standoff with Chen Sui, react.

Chen Sui, seeing Xie You looking toward Gu Qinxue's position, reminded: "Ah Xue, expose a bit more."

Gu Qinxue revealed a bit of the energy fluctuation element that Chen Sui had simulated, then quickly covered it again.

In just that moment, Na Luo River's analyst had already captured this energy fluctuation.

Not only had He Lanqi noticed it, but Jiang Zhongyu also seemed to have detected something.

Ink Hills and Na Luo River personnel separated, already dispatching people to Gu Qinxue's position.

When Noya noticed this scene, He Lanxiu was already charging toward Gu Qinxue.

"That's not right, why go after Gu Qinxue?"

Noya asked in confusion.

Xue Yaoyao scanned the battlefield. Except for those restraining Zhou Chen and Xie Chunshi, basically all four schools were surrounding Chen Sui and Gu Qinxue, with Xitisi being particularly distinctive.

"Xitisi is completely surrounding Gu Qinxue. Are they so certain that Chen Sui doesn't have the device?"

Reminded by Noya, and thinking of Chi Buyu's words when he first saw him, he immediately realized: "Song Yuan has information she hasn't shared. They must know the device isn't on Chen Sui."

"Let's go, surround Gu Qinxue!"

Saint Laurent's offensive stopped.

Chen Sui clearly felt the surrounding attack weaken. Na Luo River's agile attacker hadn't yet left, seemingly deliberately staying in place. Seeing him drawing his crescent blade, Chen Sui's lips curled.

"Xie Chunshi."

She called softly, "Deal with Xiao Er."

Xie Chunshi was momentarily stunned when she called him by his full name. His brain hadn't yet reacted, but his body was already propelling toward Chen Sui's position.

By the time he realized, his energy-reducing knife had already collided with Xiao Er's crescent blade.

Chen Sui directly escaped from the encirclement, turning her head and darting toward Gu Qinxue's position.

She wasn't going to resolve Gu Qinxue's breakout but was moving toward the base station entrance with Zhou Chen, who had come to support, in the midst of the melee, bringing the foot soldier along.

"Can you manage?"

Chen Sui asked.

Gu Qinxue gritted her silver teeth, quickly dodging the surrounding cannon fire. Her mecha was scorched by cannon fire; if she didn't dodge in time, she would be hit by chain cannon fire. Puluo's shield umbrella swung from the side, helping her resolve the chain control predicament. As the shield umbrella spun back, the foot soldier took another step closer to the base station.

Zhou Chen surrounded Puluo, seemingly trying to break through, but in reality, each step was pushing the foot soldier toward the base station.

"No problem, I can still hold on!"

Gu Qinxue's thorny fire whip lashed out in an explosion, sending the approaching Simos flying back.

Chen Sui set up her cannon from a distance: "Come, Xue, let's switch."

She readied her fierce fire cannon and fired directly at Gu Qinxue's original position after she left.

Gu Qinxue's mecha figure paused, directly turning upward, leaping and firing her shoulder energy cannon.

"Bang—"

A red light wave exploded in mid-air.

The mechas from several schools were all blown back.

Na Luo River was directly in front and was thrown to the ground by the impact.

The analysts scattered, and the foot soldiers quickly found and protected their teams' analysts.

As Gu Qinxue escaped, Xie Chunshi kicked away Xiao Er in front of him and revealed the device fluctuation on his body, continuously flashing.

The analysts who were sensing the surroundings looked toward Xie Chunshi's direction, all simultaneously stunned.

Chen Sui captured this moment of stunned silence and smiled: "Surprised, right? We all have one."

[Stunned, right]

[Goodness, watching Chen Sui pinch energy fluctuations, I can only say, even this can be faked, brilliant]

[Who understands, what I'm thinking is, this sister has previously pinched energy body fluctuations]

[This swinging move has completely spun the heads off the other schools]

[Even the analysts are hesitating]

[At this moment, if Gu Qinxue and Zhou Chen reveal their fluctuations, it will be the killing blow]

Sensing Xie Chunshi's fluctuation, several analysts took a deep breath, not even in their own team channels, but directly asking in the joint channel: "Xie Chunshi also has device fluctuations?"

"Yes," the other analysts confirmed.

Now, no explanation was needed; the Commanders immediately understood.

The Commanders' movements paused, and all fighting temporarily stopped.

"You Zhu Jing Fu play so dirty," Noya sincerely exclaimed.

Chen Sui coughed: "All's fair in war."

As she spoke, she flickered the device fluctuation on her body a few times.

Gu Qinxue didn't move.

"Zhou Chen, it's your turn," Chen Sui reminded.

Zhou Chen had device fluctuations. Chen Sui had told him his fluctuation should be 'beaten out,' not 'accidentally exposed,' so now he was covering it well.

He just moved his mecha slightly toward the base station position.

This movement, in the silence of the entire field, was particularly conspicuous.

Except for Noya and Xie You who were watching Xie Chunshi, Song Yuan was scanning the other Zhu Jing Fu members, seemingly trying to identify one.

Zhang Yingjie, however, lifted his sensor glasses: "Zhou Chen."

As soon as he spoke, Xin Ming's hand urged energy, Ghost Flower's vines moving weakly.

Simos slightly raised his cannon.

At this moment, although the mechas were all motionless, Chen Sui noticed all their subtle movements.

She revealed a smile, and as the four schools tested, her mecha charged directly toward the base station door.

"Now!"

In the crowd, it was unclear who shouted.

Gu Qinxue and Xie Chunshi rushed toward Zhou Chen's position.

The four schools all rushed toward Zhou Chen, their cannons blocking the paths of the other Zhu Jing Fu members.

Puluo's shield umbrella extended in front of Zhou Chen.

However, from the opposing team, a golden figure charged out. The crimson fire fox, carrying fierce plum blossoms, approached. Its long tail swept sideways, coordinating with Simos's long rainbow mouse's fierce wind, directly shattering his outer energy barrier.

"Make way!"

Zhao Jingzhi fired a control cannon, holding Puluo in place. Xue Yaoyao's Twin Butterfly twined and danced over, the fierce wind directly lifting Puluo from the ground and throwing him to the side.

At the same time, Chen Sui swept open the base station door, but was quickly driven away from the base station entrance by the approaching Xie You.

The heavy sword, with extremely fast attack speed, swept by, directly forcing Chen Sui to retreat continuously.

"I don't know who has the device," Xie You looked at her with cold eyes. Chen Sui looked back and saw Xin Ming's spirit body forming layers of tree nets behind her, waiting for her to approach and be entangled. "But I know, as long as all of you Zhu Jing Fu are eliminated, this device will definitely emerge."

After Xie You finished speaking, Chen Sui felt a fierce wind from below. Black Mamba rushed out from the yellow sand, fangs wide open, carrying layers of black gas charging forth.

Chen Sui quickly scanned the surroundings and directly rushed toward Zhou Chen.

She knew the other academies were converging on Zhu Jing Fu.

Since they couldn't determine which person had the device when separated, they would gather together to fight.

The Zhu Jing Fu members converged on Zhou Chen from all sides, with only the foot soldier spun out by the fierce wind.

"Puluo, it's up to you."

This was exactly the result Chen Sui wanted.

As she approached Zhou Chen, the four schools rushed toward Zhu Jing Fu's position.

"Hiss, is it getting hotter?"

The temperature suddenly rose, and those who noticed the anomaly looked toward the fire attribute awakened ones in the team.

Xie Yi's spirit body, the Fierce Fire Fox, waved its tail a few times, fire flowers spinning everywhere. From the golden mecha, the energetic girl blinked: "Eh, really? It shouldn't be my spirit body's energy, right!"

The crowd gathered around Zhou Chen. Chen Sui, seeing the crowd arrive, exchanged a glance with Xie Chunshi who was arriving from another direction.

"Friends, we're leaving!"

Chen Sui, holding the Mirage Orb, activated the energy and said in a calm tone.

Her voice was slightly hoarse, very distinctive: "Please enjoy yourselves, no need to thank us."

Cannons flew around, various attribute energies scattered, but in the midst of the chaos, the keen Commanders heard her voice.

Zhu Jing Fu's analyst charged from the periphery, with Xie You and Xin Ming driving her in this direction.

As she approached, the fierce fire aura became more intense.

A red light burst from around the black gold mecha.

The moment the red light dispersed, it immediately spread to the surroundings.

Song Yuan, triggered by this scene into her memory, immediately thought of the scene outside the secondary base station. "Not right, it's a mirage!"

"Quick, get out!!"

As her warning sounded, the fire had already enveloped everyone in the center.

"Don't leave, hiss, everyone's so enthusiastic in welcoming us, hiss, we Zhu Jing Fu are the most, hiss, hospitable, hiss," Zhou Chen got up holding his waist, his damage level already at 72%, his face hit by cannons several times, in pain and hissing, but even so, his trash talk had to be on point.

Xie You's eyes darkened as he looked up and saw the solidified mirage entity.

As his mecha propelled toward the outside of the mirage, he suddenly heard Zhu Jing Fu's analyst's voice: "Bye-bye!"

The ending syllable rose, sounding somewhat cute.

But hearing it only made people feel somewhat annoyed!

Because immediately, the mirage's fire attribute energy was enveloped by a force, sinking toward the ground.

Before everyone could react, the daylight in front of them dissipated, leaving only darkness.

As the mirage entity solidified, it was accompanied by the rumbling sound of falling.

And at this moment, watching the quicksand in front rushing into the ground, countless mechas falling downward, Zhu Jing Fu's foot soldier, who had been blown away by the fierce wind to a position, swung open his shield umbrella and climbed up from the ground.

Puluo stood up, turned around, and there was the door opened by Chen Sui.

[This—]

[I'm speechless]

[This mirage, you just play with it, each time without a sound]

[Puluo, knocking on the door before entering would be the killing blow]

Puluo, perhaps because his showing-off course wasn't yet proficient, or fearing further mishaps, immediately propelled himself as soon as he stood up, directly rushing into the base station.

At this moment, the mirage had just stabilized underground, with energy bodies frantically pouring in.

The four schools lay in the center of the mirage, all somewhat powerless.

"Shall we fight? Energy bodies, points!"

Zhou Chen tried to persuade them.

Noya lifted his eyelids to look at him. Seeing Zhu Jing Fu missing one, the foot soldier not present, he knew the outcome. He turned, thought for a moment, still unable to swallow this anger, and sat up with a jerk.

"No, you Zhu Jing Fu have issues!"

"Who would put the device on a foot soldier?!"

At this point, the resentment from the other academies also rose.

"Your foot soldier took several of my cannon shots, you guys are really brave."

"Brave indeed."

Zhou Chen nodded sincerely.

Puluo had grown up under Chen Sui's cannon fire, so in terms of pressure, probably no one was stronger than Chen Sui.

As if to confirm the credibility of his words.

In the energy field, a system announcement sounded.

[Energy absorption device successfully placed]

[Congratulations to 4705 for successful attack]

[This SS-level energy field - Song of Sand and Mirage competition has ended]

[Please all contestants, exit in an orderly manner]

Noya laughed coldly, looking at the pitch-black underground around and the energy bodies approaching the mirage.

"Orderly exit? Before exiting, I still have to fight another batch of energy bodies."

"You Zhu Jing Fu are truly villains!"
