Boom boom boom!!
"Holy hell? Holy hell!"
Liu Pei Qie's ship was destroyed by a viper, and he was among those plummeting rapidly.
"Cooper!! BT!!"
Sarah's voice echoed over the radio, reaching Liu Pei Qie's ears as he fell.
"BT!"
"Save me!"
A strong sense of weightlessness washed over Liu Pei Qie. He panicked, finally realizing he was about to fall to his death from ten thousand meters up.
Only one reliable figure occupied his mind.
However, BT was also falling rapidly, flailing its hands in the air, looking even more panicked than he was.
Liu Pei Qie's heart sank. He knew it was over!
At the same time, his teammate Bak's voice came over the radio: "I got you, kid!"
What followed was an incredible sight—
A ship was flying vertically at ninety degrees, its speed even exceeding Liu Pei Qie's descent.
Using the ship as a reference, for a moment, he felt like his own descent had slowed.
The ship was so fast it created a visual distortion!
"Get ready!"
As Bak's voice finished, the vertically flying ship suddenly changed direction, becoming horizontal.
The moment the ship stabilized, Liu Pei Qie and BT landed successfully on its platform.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle~
BT's back scraped violently against the ship's surface, sending sparks flying.
Liu Pei Qie didn't fare much better. Falling from such a height, Cooper's body nearly gave out. He rolled several times after landing before managing to stop.
He took several deep breaths, his condition barely stabilized.
'Titanfall'
'Mechs are a man's romance!'
'Nice Bak!'
'Bak was so cool, I'm wet!'
'It really was BT who knocked him down (a little funny hhh)'
'You're asking too much of a 40-ton baby!'
'BT weighs around 60 tons, how could he catch it.'
......
It had to be said, there were too many classic scenes in 'Titanfall.' Like this one, audiences watched it repeatedly with undiminished enthusiasm.
Sarah: "Bak, thank you for showing up."
"Don't mention it," Bak replied coolly.
"I think BT's parts fell off," Liu Pei Qie said, looking at BT on the deck after stabilizing himself, feeling a pang of sympathy.
"The air isn't our main domain; land is. Poor BT."
"The Mal-ta battleship is at the ten o'clock position defending the Tianlong Star, we can't get through!"
Commander Sarah's latest news came over the radio. "Cooper, I need a Pilot to board the Mal-ta for defense!"
Sarah was indeed a commander, possessing great emotional intelligence!
Sarah had discovered another escort ship protecting the Tianlong Star from behind, thus requiring a Pilot to change the situation.
Cooper was the most suitable choice, but she didn't directly assign the recently crashed Cooper. Instead, she indirectly told him that they needed him.
The same objective, but different wording made a huge difference.
Liu Pei Qie couldn't stand such circumlocution. "Why don't you just say the mission directly? Are you tired of beating around the bush?"
"Who's the player?"
"Isn't the player precisely for this?"
Chewing on a metal bullet casing, Liu Pei Qie looked at BT. Good heavens, was this guy used to being embarrassing?
Seeing BT preparing to act as a stool, Liu Pei Qie felt a jolt of unease.
As expected, Captain Crow's voice came over the radio: "Commander Briggs, this is Blackbird 6-4, we can get there. BT will throw us."
"Damn it, speak of the devil!"
Liu Pei Qie, having been thrown countless times, felt indignant.
The viewers, however, were delighted by this scene, especially when BT uttered "Trust me" before throwing someone.
Whoosh!
The atmosphere heated up.
'Here it comes, the embarrassment is starting.'
'Cooper: Why are you calling me if you need a Pilot?'
'Did you just say you'd give me a Pilot's certificate just for this?'
'Sarah: You need to understand your role as a tool.'
'BT is so cute!'
'BT: Protocol Four: Throw Pilot.'
'Add another protocol, makes sense.'
......
"Roger that. 6-4."
BT was well-practiced. He set up his stool, extended his right arm, and a vortex of energy gathered in his palm without any unnecessary movements.
"You can do it, Cooper."
Seemingly sensing Liu Pei Qie's reluctance, BT offered words of comfort.
"Sigh!"
With a heavy sigh, Liu Pei Qie reluctantly stepped onto BT's palm.
"BT, is it like before?"
"I don't know. It's my first time throwing people from two ships."
"But..."
BT once again spoke the words that reassured him so much: "Trust me."
Hiss~
Not just Liu Pei Qie, but the viewers were also thrilled.
All along the way, this phrase seemed to possess some kind of magic.
No matter what difficulties they encountered, as long as BT uttered these words, the players and viewers' hearts were put at ease.
"Good luck!"
Click click click!!
With that, BT threw Liu Pei Qie.
"Ahhhh!!!"
The fierce gale pierced his body. This feeling was incredibly exhilarating!
This heart-pounding, hellish roller coaster experience caused Liu Pei Qie to scream with each ride.
Compared to Liu Pei Qie, Zhou Jie seemed quite accustomed to it.
"Taking off!"
Zhou Jie had fallen in love with this unique extreme sport in the VR world, not to mention the added trust bond with BT.
Flying out like a cannonball, the physics-defying flight experience in the air was also incredibly thrilling.
Zhou Jie really enjoyed this feeling; it was freeing and exciting.
The atmosphere in Zhou Jie's stream was equally amusing.
'BT throws me perfectly every time, I trust him completely!'
'We will always trust you.'
'Seems like you're addicted to throwing!'
'He threw him right into the flamethrower!'
'Throwing someone out in high-speed aerial combat and catching them precisely is truly absurd.'
......
Thump!
He landed steadily on the approaching ship. The pilot, Dewei's, voice came through:
"Cooper, welcome to 6-4."
Captain Crow's voice followed closely: "Cooper, listen up, we can't carry you to the bridge."
"We'll never make it through that gunfire."
"We'll drop you off at the stern and you'll have to figure out the rest."
"What?"
Zhou Jie's eyes widened. "Wait, that's not what you said just now!"
"Damn it!"
"I wish anyone who half-explains things would also get erectile dysfunction halfway through a roller coaster ride, you jerk!"
However, Captain Crow did not hear Zhou Jie's grumbling and continued: "Cooper, I'll get as close as possible. Calculate your jump time."
"Now, quickly! Quickly!"
"Ah!?"
Hearing this, Zhou Jie, still dazed, acted almost subconsciously and jumped. Was this trust in her teammates?
No.
This was simply being pushed into it. Only when she successfully landed on the stern of the Mal-ta did her teammates' excited voices come through.
Zhou Jie, utterly bewildered, finally came to her senses.
"Huh?"
"How did I jump over here?"
"What was I supposed to do next?"
......
