17. Competition
On November 9, the Panama City base was closed.
This is the fourth base to be tragically closed, and so far, half of the world's mecha bases have been closed, and half of them are left.
The United Nations decided to close the remaining four bases within a month.
All the funds that were withdrawn were invested in the construction of spaceships.
In the face of this situation, except for some mecha fanatics, most of the people silently accepted the decision of the United Nations, in fact, even if they did not accept it, there was no way.
Times are so.
What's more, the top level of the United Nations has never cared about the opinions of these people.
In fact, even the Supreme Commander of the Combined Pacific Defense Force, Stek Pentikos, accepted the order and submitted an application to become a spaceship pilot.
In this way, the people below are even more useless.
For Steck, as long as he can kill monsters, it doesn't matter where he is, whether it's the Combined Pacific Defense Force or the spaceship pilot, it's no problem.
Because he himself lived to kill monsters.
He was born into a self-employed family, his father Obadia, his mother Vivian were both bar singers, and he had a younger sister, Luca. In 1995, his father was killed in a fight with the bar owner over his salary.
Steck, who was 12 years old at the time, beat the owner and his men to death and burned the bar to the ground.
This scene happened to be seen by a passing officer, who discovered the child's iron-willed potential, and before the police arrived, Steck and his sister were taken away by the officer.
They later joined the RAF, and both siblings became pilots, stationed at the St Andrews Air Defence Station.
But alas, in 2013, monsters invaded.
The pilots rushed out, and his sister was inside, but in that battle, humanity lost in a mess, and his sister died on the spot.
Hearing the news, Steck went into shock on the spot.
After waking up, Steck put all his hatred on the monster, determined to destroy the monster and give his sister an explanation. He later joined the Combined Pacific Rim Defense Force and became a mechhunter.
However, in 2016, a monster codenamed Demon Witch landed in Tokyo, and Stek and his companion driver, Tango Wolf, went out to meet the enemy.
However, during the battle, his mech suffered heavy damage, and to make matters worse, his companion was severely injured and unconscious.
At the critical juncture, Steck had to fight the Demon Witch alone in a mech, which lasted for hours.
When Stek is about to run out of power, the Demon Witch is caught by a running little Japanese girl and abandons the mecha in favor of chasing the little girl.
Steck took advantage of this opportunity to kill the demon witch and save the little girl by driving the tango wolf.
However, because of this incident, Steck suffered very severe brain trauma and was unable to fly the mech.
In desperation, Steck could only transfer to a civilian position, but he didn't expect this guy to get into the position of leader step by step.
When the United Nations closed the mecha base, Steck once argued with the United Nations high-level arguments, believing that the mecha was the only weapon against the monster.
However, when the spaceship appeared, Steck immediately changed his mind.
Not only did he abandon the mecha, but he also submitted a full-time application.
Because he found that he couldn't fly a mech, but he could drive a spaceship to kill monsters.
Mecha or something, the past is gone.
In this way, without the opposition of him, the Supreme Commander, the closure of the mecha base was smoother.
Even Wang Bo didn't expect this.
In fact, now he doesn't even have the extra experience to pay attention to these things.
It's still the Sahara Desert.
With a loud roar, Wang Bo saw a Diana accompanied by thunder, galloping towards him, and in less than a second, he arrived in front of him.
Diana waved the Vulcan Sword in her hand and slashed at her neck without hesitation.
Wang Bo didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly avoided the Sword of the Fire God, and at the same time released two lasers in his eyes.
Diana held up her shield and blocked the laser, and Wang Bo took the opportunity to teleport behind Diana and kicked out.
Touch!
Diana was like a leather ball, kicked by Wang Bo out of thousands of meters, flew straight out of the sky, and even crashed through a layer of clouds, forming a huge hole.
A few seconds later, lightning fell from the sky and smashed into Wang Bo.
Wang Bo swam quickly in mid-air, dodging left and right, easily avoiding this terrifying thunder.
Then, Diana flew back and landed on the ground with a thud, a pair of beautiful eyes shining brightly, as if there was a thunderstorm shining.
Thunderbolts burst out from her skin, like thunder guns, shooting towards Wang Bo.
Wang Bo teleported again, avoided the thunder guns in the sky, and reappeared in Diana's depth, so he repeated his trick and kicked out, but Diana reacted this time, quickly turned around, and blocked the blow with her shield.
A huge muffled sound came, and the desert under the feet of the two people suddenly set off an invisible shock wave.
The yellow sand rolled upside down.
Diana's Vulcan sword slashed out quickly, and this sword made by the fire god Hephaestus that can cut from the subatomic level is definitely not inferior to the legendary artifact in a sense.
Even if it is not as good as Gangenir, it is not worse than the legendary magic sword, or the holy sword.
Wang Bo didn't dare to let such a sharp weapon chop at his body.
The moment the Vulcan sword slashed, he teleported to Diana's hand again, and punched Diana in the back.
Diana was suddenly knocked hundreds of meters away by Wang Bo, leaving a long ravine on the ground.
"You've lost."
Wang Bo did not pursue Chen Sheng, but stopped.
This was the first time the two men had fought.
The days of waiting for the monster invasion were quite boring, so Diana wanted to have a discussion with Wang Bo, on the one hand, hoping that she could tap into greater potential.
On the other hand, it is not to admit defeat.
The last time she lost to Wang Bo, Diana felt a little unhappy, so she planned to fight with Wang Bo and be ashamed.
It's a pity that the two fought several times, and the final result ended in Diana's failure.
This time is no exception.
After Diana got up from the ground, she shook off the yellow sand on her body and did not sigh, judging from these battles, she was undoubtedly at an overwhelming disadvantage.
It seems that if you want to defeat Wang Bo, it is not something that can be done overnight.
