Chapter 1 Klein and Cheng Konghai's Grudges Can Be Settled!

"Klein and Cheng Konghai's grudges can be settled!" Robbie rubbed his hands together excitedly. As a simple mech pilot, he really wanted to know who was stronger.

"Robbie, you're thinking too simply. This is the S-match, not a place to settle personal grudges." Lomahenko shook his head. "Both sides have prepared a lot for this battle."

"Holy crap, are you saying Silly-Ann is going to use dirty tricks?"

"Haha, in this regard, Second Brother isn't one to be outdone. The two of them can be considered evenly matched. I suspect they both think the other will feint." "Will they do the opposite?"

The people of Apocalypse were very excited. Cheng Konghai and Klein were old rivals, but if one of them was taken out, it would really have a big impact on the battle situation. The core combat power of both teams really rested on those two.

The vanguard fighter of the Sea Dragon Team – Klein. The vanguard fighter of Tianjing Mech Fighting Team – Cheng Konghai.

Regardless of what kind of arrangements and thoughts both sides had made before the match, Cheng Konghai and Klein still met in the end.

In fact, whether for Li Hao or Silly-Ann, victory or defeat was not unimportant, but it was just a link in the process. Silly-Ann wanted both!

For Li Hao, defeating Klein head-on was Cheng Konghai's wish. Cheng Konghai had few interests, so why wouldn't he support it?

Five years of different lives, but this was not something that could be glossed over in a single sentence. Cheng Konghai truly experienced the warmth and coldness of human relationships at the bottom of society. It was a soul-forging experience, while Klein received a comprehensive upgrade from the Mophis family, becoming a member of the family, Silly-Ann's core team, the elite of society.

The two sides walked their own paths for five years, finally meeting in the finals of the S-match. Battle scene – Desperate City, standard G.

This was a battlefield after the giant insect invasion of the solar system, similar to the Kepler Desperate Jungle.

Klein was very happy, humming a little tune. He didn't want to fight anyone else, only to kill Cheng Konghai. Cheng Konghai pursed his lips, he simply wanted to beat Klein to death, or be beaten to death by Klein.

The battle scene didn't have much interference for the two. Klein was good at speed, and Cheng Konghai was good at strength, but they were both maxed out in mech proficiency and environmental familiarity. Behind Klein was the huge Mophis family. Silly-Ann's revenge preparations began on his sickbed. He spared no effort in cultivating Klein and others. Money was meaningless to him at this level. Klein and others had the best training conditions, but also the most stringent. It wasn't for their enjoyment. With Silly-Ann, you had to give as much as you received. It was equal. As for Cheng Konghai, he was reckless and impatient. Under normal circumstances, he might not have been able to calm down and familiarize himself with various mechs, let alone change himself. In Silly-Ann's words, this person had serious emotional intelligence problems, but life was the best teacher, capable of beating any kind of personality into shape. In these five years, he had changed and improved a lot from passively playing exhibition matches and taking orders in the virtual zone. His pride was buried deep in his heart.

Why would a waste linger on? Why not commit suicide?

Or, deep in his subconscious, he believed that one day Second Brother would come back and take him away. Now, he was back.

Klein licked his bright red lips and chose the Phantom Fighter. Phantom Fighter (NUP).

Dual-engine nuclear fission drive, short-burst laser gun, Bee Sting K23 titanium sword.

Cheng Konghai also unhesitatingly revealed the Ironclad Steel Fist, imagining this moment every time he used the Ironclad Steel Fist in the virtual zone. Ironclad Steel Fist (USE).

Triple-core fission engine, Gabo titanium system.

Quad-axis back-mounted auxiliary booster, dual-arm Thunderfire laser cannon.

Two mobile suits entered the urban battlefield. At this time, the city was filled with flames, with ruins everywhere, after the ravages of war. 『·······,

Two mobile fighters landed. Cheng Konghai moved the mech's limbs, adjusting the flexibility. Klein popped out two Bee Sting titanium swords, a look of excitement on his face.

"Ant, can your slow speed keep up with me? Don't tell me you can't even touch my hair." Klein laughed. "When I beat you to death with one punch, I hope your mouth is still so tough!" Cheng Konghai said in a low voice.

Klein stuck out his tongue. "Let me see if you've improved in the last two years."

Instantly, his pupils turned scarlet, and dazzling blue flames burned along the titanium sword to the entire mech. A surging power directly entered the Flowing Heart Martial state. This was a unique Klein Blue.

The Ironclad Steel Fist buzzed, its arms shook, and red flames enveloped the mech. Solid power continued to increase, entering the Flowing Heart Martial state, making the entire Ironclad Steel Fist look like a war beast.

Reaper meets Slaughterer. Bang...

Klein's Phantom Fighter suddenly disappeared, appearing in front of the Ironclad Steel Fist the next moment. Just as the Ironclad Steel Fist made a move, with a *pa* sound, the Phantom Fighter moved horizontally, coming to the side. Cheng Konghai made a sudden turn, and the Phantom Fighter moved again, *ceng ceng ceng*...

A series of afterimages. Facing Cheng Konghai, Klein also showed his true strength, bringing the Phantom Fighter's mobility to the extreme. The Ironclad Steel Fist constantly shifted and rotated, maintaining its defense against the Phantom Fighter. In a series of movements, accompanied by the sound of metal collisions, *hong*...

The Ironclad Steel Fist's punch missed, and the Phantom Fighter gracefully pulled away, as fast as the wind and as swift as lightning, completely controlling the distance.

"Ant, you're too slow. Choosing a medium-sized mech might allow you to barely keep up with me. Heavy armor is too clumsy. Tell me, how am I supposed to play you to death?" The Phantom Fighter pointed at the Ironclad Steel Fist.

Suddenly, the entire audience was in an uproar. It turned out that the Phantom Fighter had used its titanium sword to draw a large X on the front of the Ironclad Steel Fist at some point. The Ironclad Steel Fist stretched out its hand, and a short-burst laser gun appeared out of nowhere. "Watch your head, next time I'll just twist it off!"

Saying that, accompanied by a creaking sound, he directly crumpled the Phantom Fighter's short-burst laser gun into a ball. Old friends should always say hello.

Along with the crumpled laser gun being thrown at the Phantom Fighter like a cannonball, with a *hong* sound, the Ironclad Steel Fist attacked, blasting a pit in the ground, already arriving in front of the Phantom Fighter.

The Phantom Fighter suddenly moved horizontally, *pa*...

Like an earthquake, the Ironclad Steel Fist had already arrived behind the Phantom Fighter, *da da da da* – Gatling machine gun fist.

Choosing the Phantom Fighter meant there was no way to fight head-on. The Phantom Fighter could only dodge, but no one expected that the Ironclad Steel Fist could be brought to this level in Cheng Konghai's hands. From the design of the mech, mentality, and power system, it could completely match this speed, but what kind of load would this tonnage put on the pilot's body?

This was a crazy ant. Under the Ironclad Steel Fist's violent attacks, the Phantom Fighter had no power to fight back, and could only constantly try to get away, trying to create distance. The Phantom Fighter's ghostly movements couldn't shake off the Ironclad Steel Fist that was stuck like a shadow, *pa*...

A sudden flash, and a smirk appeared on the corner of Cheng Konghai's mouth. "Got you!" One punch landed, directly piercing the Phantom Fighter. An afterimage?

The Phantom Fighter on the side directly thrusted towards the Ironclad Steel Fist. Cheng Konghai didn't panic at all. The Ironclad Steel Fist swayed to the side, dodging the Bee Sting, and at the same time, threw a swing punch directly out. The Phantom Fighter shifted sideways ghostlike, dodging the attack by a hair's breadth, and the other Bee Sting stabbed towards the cockpit. The Ironclad Steel Fist blocked with its left hand.

The

The Phantom Fighter directly borrowed the force to bounce away. With a *hong* sound, the Ironclad Steel Fist had already attacked, but it missed again. The Phantom Fighter moved horizontally continuously, but suddenly appeared from above, reversing its dual Bee Stings to directly strangle the Ironclad Steel Fist. Cheng Konghai let out a low roar, and the Ironclad Steel Fist soared into the sky, smashing towards the Phantom Fighter.

····.·

The titanium gauntlet and Bee Sting crossed, but there was no explosive collision. The Phantom Fighter used its skill to pull the distance away directly.

The round of probing exchanges directly stunned everyone. There were no special abilities here, just pure power and speed pushed to the limit. The terrifying thing about Cheng Konghai was his explosive speed. Strength could also be used to increase the mech's instantaneous burst, to compensate for the lack of absolute speed. And under the Phantom Fighter's absolute speed, it was difficult for the Ironclad Steel Fist's absolute power to find an opportunity to land a solid punch.

Fire Man frowned. The Phantom Fighter was too fragile. As long as the Ironclad Steel Fist could keep up with the speed, with the maturity of the Gabo titanium system, as long as it wasn't a fatal attack, it could likely withstand the Phantom's flashy attacks, while the Phantom

If it took a direct heavy punch, Cheng Konghai's heavy punches would be fatal.

Crazy Martial Master was passionately commentating. He was full of confidence in Cheng Konghai. Cheng Konghai was slightly better than Klein back then, and there was no reason to lose now. As long as he could keep up, there would be an even greater opportunity.

The Ironclad Steel Fist lowered its center of gravity, and its right fist pulled back. The quad-axis back-mounted boosters began to spew fire. "Klein, let's turn up the heat!"

Klein couldn't help but smile. "It's been a few years, and you've even learned to talk trash. You've improved. Let me see how you, a simple-minded and well-developed savage, will turn up the heat on me."

*Bang*~

The Ironclad Steel Fist instantly arrived in front of the Phantom Fighter, and the Gatling machine gun fist instantly enveloped the Phantom Fighter. This time, Klein didn't pull away. His eyes were full of excited light. The Phantom Fighter constantly swayed, walking in the gaps between the Ironclad Steel Fist's fists. This had already exceeded the level of swaying and dodging, a dreamlike instantaneous shift, and in a series of afterimages, he was more than capable, and the Ironclad Steel Fist's fatal attacks were always just a little short.

"Is that all?" Klein's face was relaxed. "You're just showing off your axe in front of Lu Ban." (Showing off skills in front of an expert.)

But no matter how much the Ironclad Steel Fist sped up, it couldn't get close. This was almost a complete understanding of the Ironclad Steel Fist's attack rhythm, *bang*...

The Ironclad Steel Fist flashed, accurately predicting Klein's direction of movement, using explosive speed to land in advance, and one punch slammed down. The Phantom Fighter made another ethereal weightless back flash, letting it go lightly. Klein continued to start the taunt mode: "Ant, how much hatred do you have with the air? Not a bit of progress..."

Cheng Konghai, who missed a punch, didn't chase after it. Instead, he feigned fullness with his left fist, and his scarlet eyes suddenly shrank. "Drink!"

With one punch, thunder rumbled in the sky. More than ten meters apart, Klein's hair stood on end. The Phantom Fighter suddenly crossed its double swords, and a blue barrier stood in front of it.

*Hong*
