The young couple in the audience were being loving to each other, while the lonely frog on the stage was shouting crazily as the fight between Lonely and Charles went on. They randomly got a volcano arena, and it was even an active volcano. However, except for the crater, everything was covered with vegetation. Birds suddenly chirped rapidly, and animals flew out of their nests in panic.
“Oh no! The two players’ killer moves are too powerful! They triggered the random effect of the volcanic eruption on this map!” The host said anxiously: “The Hypnos can escape the volcanic eruption range with its long-term flight ability, how can the Lonely Frog save itself?!”
A large amount of volcanic ash gushed out of the crater, forming a tall pyroclastic cone. The sky quickly turned dark, and volcanic ash filled the entire gymnasium, as if a black cloud was hovering in the gymnasium, like ink poured into clear water.
The realistic special effects made Tang Bai’s heart rise. He saw the wall tiles of the gymnasium melting rapidly and falling to the ground!
Xie Ruheng held Tang Bai’s hand and passed the warmth of his palm to Tang Bai.
Countless birds and beasts were running around, and the shrill cries were endless. The whole world seemed to start shaking at this moment.
“Ah! The Lonely Frog has wrapped its vines around the Hypnos!”
A flash of lightning struck through the dark volcanic ash, and suddenly sparks flew everywhere, sparks and flames flew in the darkness. This was a pyroclastic flow and luminous cloud phenomenon, illuminating the Lone Frog and the Hypnos, which were entangled in vines.
[Hahahaha Frog said he didn’t want to die alone]
[Congratulations to Frog, Frog now has a story of two people living and dying together]
[This is such a bad move. Gu Tunan actually locked the other side of the vine to the crater.]
The black volcanic ash rolled in like a torrent, overflowing like a flood, flowing everywhere, layer after layer, wave after wave, sweeping towards all living things like ink, engulfing the Lonely Frog and the Hypnos with an unmatched momentum.
“Both of our players are within the range of the volcanic eruption. The game is over! The two players are tied!” After the host announced the result of the game, the special effects of the volcanic eruption dissipated. The gymnasium was still bright and orderly. However, the two mechas tied tightly by mechanical vines looked like big dumplings.
The mechanical vines shattered, and Charles and Gu Tunan walked out of their respective mechas. Charles currently had one more challenge opportunity, and everyone was waiting for him to challenge Xie Ruheng.
But to everyone’s surprise, Charles chose to give up the chance of his last challenge.
He looked at the public screen filled with ridicule for the Imperial team and the terrifyingly strong alpha and walked down the stage in silence.
Because he didn’t want to lose miserably, he would rather give up the opportunity to challenge.
As long as he didn’t really compete with Xie Ruheng, others would not know how big the gap between him and Xie Ruheng really was.
Charles returned to the backstage lounge and found that the atmosphere was depressing. The coach was sighing and Dave was unhappy. Only Andre looked as if everything was going well.
But it was normal if you thought about it. Chris, who was loyal to the eldest prince, was caught for smuggling energy crystals, Pamela, who was close to the second prince, was taken away for cheating, and Dave, who was loyal to the third prince, had a poor record. As the fifth prince’s man, he only tied with Gu Tunan and handed the championship to Xie Ruheng.
Originally, he was going to win the championship and bring back glory for the Fifth Prince, but now none of them had gained anything.
As for Andre, the Fourth Prince, he had never been able to recruit any outstanding mecha pilots and had no hope of winning the championship. But now he was on the same level as everyone else, so it was normal for him to be happy.
“Charles, Dave, don’t you two want to challenge Xie Ruheng?” The coach advised: “If no one challenges Xie Ruheng, people will say we are cowardly. Maybe you will encounter a map like the Volcano Map where you and your opponent will perish together.” He couldn’t continue speaking halfway through.
What’s the point of letting Charles and Dave try? Wouldn’t it just be another defeat for the Empire team?
Forget it, the Empire team had already lost face this time.
The coach opened the Empire’s social media platform and saw the headlines of the reports on the Mecha Cup were all about unprecedented shameful competition, shame on the country, and the Empire team had 0 wins against the Federation team.
An Empire netizen who did not want to be named said: “My ID name is my current status on the international forum. I am embarrassed to say that I am an Empire person!”
The coach sighed again. He felt like he was about to let out all the anger in his life. “Well, then, Dave should also give up. Xie Ruheng is indeed difficult to defeat. Not challenging him is to preserve our last bit of dignity—”
“Coach.” Andre interrupted him, “I want to challenge Xie Ruheng.”
The coach was stunned. He even suspected that he was hallucinating. The first rule of “losing with dignity” that he had taught the prince was not to challenge an opponent who was too strong beyond one’s ability.
Charles frowned and said, “Xie Ruheng is very strong.”
Dave chuckled, “Your Highness, do you not have a clear understanding of your own strength?”
“I know,” Andre said seriously, “but retreating without a fight is a true cowardly act.”
….
Before Andre put on his combat uniform, he covered the needle hole on his arm left by the injection of camouflage agent with a Band-Aid.
He put on a golden mecha helmet, which was shaped like a shining golden crown, which was the crown of the sun god in the legend.
The appearance of his mecha imitated the shape of the sun chariot in mythology. The golden chariot was pulled by four golden horses. It was golden and radiated light and heat.
He and his mecha, the Sun God Helios, came to the arena. The federal audience did not welcome his arrival, but Andre still raised his head and looked at the audience. He then looked at Tang Bai.
The omega he had wanted to get close to since the first time he met him.
Shining and emitting heat, it was the sun far away in another country.
“Contestant Andre, why did you decide to challenge contestant Xie Ruheng?” the host was doing a pre-match interview.
Andre came back to his senses and looked at Xie Ruheng who was standing in front of him. After using the cute and powerful killing move, the Yingji Changkong could no longer transform into its first form and could only continue to maintain the second form.
“I want to see how big the gap is between me and contestant Xie Ruheng.” Andre smiled and asked, “Don’t you need to change to a new mecha?”
“No need.” Xie Ruheng said lightly.
There was indeed no need to do so. In this mecha duel, the match between Xie Ruheng and Andre was a complete crushing victory.
Xie Ruheng with wings was like a fighting angel. He held a lightsaber in his hand and spread his wings like a predatory Saker Falcon. With a “chirp” sound, he rushed towards the sky, and his dark eyes rushed towards the sun god Helios without mercy!
During the high-speed dive, he slightly raised his lightsaber, and a white sword light flashed through the defense of the two golden horses, cutting the reins in an instant –
With just one sword strike, he broke half of Andre’s defense.
The snow-white wings folded, and Xie Ruheng fell from the gap between the two golden horses, avoiding the first wave of attack from the sun god Helios.
His hair flew upwards and his eyes were calm. He fell with his face facing the sky, and the tip of his sword pointed at the reins of the other two golden horses.
Amid a burst of exclamations, Xie Ruheng reopened his wings, flipped over, and gripped the lightsaber tightly with his slender hands. The next moment, everything changed!
The dazzling light hit the bottom of the Helios directly. The two lightsabers were like the claws of a predator, brutally tearing apart the first layer of defense shield of the Helios. Then came a killing move –
Mercilessly breaking through the second, third and last layer of the defense system of the Apollo Helios!!!
“Xie Ruheng cut off all the connections between the Apollo Helios and the four golden horses! Oh my god! Contestant Xie Ruheng was able to break through all the defenses of the Apollo Helios in just five seconds!!!”
The host had never seen such a short fight. The audience was also excited by this scene and shouted, screamed, cheered, and applauded. They shouted Xie Ruheng’s name, and the enthusiastic voices seemed to blow the roof of the gymnasium off.
When the players walked out of the mecha and stood on the stage, the comments on the public screen were already flashing: “Celebrate Xie Shen’s victory!” “Xie Shen is so handsome!!!” “Yingji Changkong is the most powerful!!”
The audience’s reaction was so intense that even the host’s face flushed with a fangirl blush. She was afraid that she would become infatuated with Xie Ruheng on the spot, so she first interviewed Andre to calm down, “Andre, do you have anything to say after this game?”
Andre was a little dazed. He had not yet recovered from the shock of his rapid defeat. After a while, he calmed his breath and said to Xie Ruheng sincerely: “You are very strong. You deserve the highest honor and the best feelings.”
His graceful and generous demeanor and his blessing for Xie and Tang’s relationship actually made the comments on Andre much better.
[As long as you recognize God Xie and Tang Tang, we can be friends!]
[Andre was a bad player throughout the entire Mecha Cup. Although he was a bad player, he was a genuine bad player and did not try to cheat.]
[Yes, Andre is so bad that I never suspected him of cheating. I hope this prince can rectify the empire’s morals.]
Xie Ruheng saw a hint of envy in Andre’s eyes. There was no malice in that envy, it was just pure yearning.
“Contestant Xie Ruheng, your points are now the highest in the arena.” The host looked at the latest scoreboard displayed on the public screen, and saw that besides the score, there was also a small golden crown next to Xie Ruheng’s name.
“Congratulations on becoming the champion of this year’s Mecha Cup Competition!!!”
The audience seats became a boiling sea of joy at this moment. Everyone waved their cheering sticks. The federal national anthem resounded throughout the entire stadium. The moment the music started, everyone stood up and sang the national anthem passionately.
The music was so loud that the host had to wait until the national anthem was over before raising the volume and asking loudly, “Contestant Xie Ruheng, do you have anything to say at this moment?”
Brilliant fireworks effects and real streamers appeared in time with the rhythm of the music. Tang Bai stretched out his hand, wanting to take the sparkling streamers. When his sight extended from his fingertips to Xie Ruheng’s handsome face on the big screen, his fingers trembled slightly and he missed the colorful streamers.
He saw Xie Ruheng take the host’s microphone with one hand and reach into his pocket with the other hand to take out a small box.
Then, Xie Ruheng said, “I have something to say to my lover.”
