Yun Hao and I high-fived each other to celebrate this difficult victory. We lost 2 mechs in this battle, the same as we lost in the last battle against Kirtra. Judging from the current battle, basically losing two planes is our limit, no matter what mechs enter the effective killing range of machine guns, they can only wait for the fate of slaughter.

"No. 1 checks the situation of the steel plate attached to the surface of the opponent's mecha!" Yun Hao gave the order, and we were both curious about how many thick steel plates were added to Centrin. No. 1 skillfully removed the additional armor of the immobile mech, and I saw that there were two thick steel plates welded together, forming a steel plate up to 1.6cm thick. No. 1 saw it clearly and threw the steel plate on the ground with a "bang".

Centrin's heart sank with a "pop" as the steel plate fell to the ground, as if all his mind had been crushed by the oscillation of the metal falling to the ground. He was so lonely at this time, and his heart was so cold, as if his heart had been beaten like the mecha he had made, and it had stopped beating. For a long time, the heartbeat of gradually "recovering" also brought him a trace of heat, and sometimes as long as the flame of hope in your heart is not completely extinguished, there will always be a time when it will burn violently again.

"Centrin, we haven't been completely eliminated yet, we can't get into the quarterfinals directly, and there are play-offs to get into the quarterfinals!" It was Gao Xiang who recovered from his frustration first and persuaded Centrin.

Centrin nodded and said, "Yes! If you lose, you lose, and to sum it up, next time it will go further. He turned his head and asked Gao Xiang, "What did we do there just now?" ”

Gao Xiang blinked and said, "It may be better for the mecha to attack earlier, we have added two thick steel plates, and we are not afraid of them at a long distance." ”

"Yes! When I was nervous just now, I forgot about it, and I didn't remember it until later. ”

In the command center of the event, Borgegt, Long Yuntai, Gao De and others, who were responsible for presiding over the competition, were also paying attention to the results of a case. Borgegt looked at the end of the game that had just ended "9:2", and then looked at the players of both sides who participated in the competition, and turned to Gao De and said: "Is Xu Yunhao of your Academy of Mechanical Sciences doing well!" It seems that at most, two mechs will be damaged, and even all opponents will be blocked, which is really rare. ”

"The Ronin Who Started from Douluo"

Gao De raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Xu Yunhao is the object of our Academy of Mechanical Sciences, he has quick thinking, his ideas are not informal, and he has also participated in actual combat, he is a talent!" To be honest, I wasn't optimistic about the mecha he designed this time, I didn't expect to be able to ignore the shield's defense, and I don't know how he did it! ”

"Humph!" Long Yuntai said unconvinced, "That's not almost blocked by a few iron plates, how much power can a gunpowder-driven bullet have, as long as the mecha uses a thicker steel plate or a higher performance, the six-barreled machine gun is just a burning stick!" ”

Gao De was robbed by Long Yuntai like this, but he was not angry, but only smiled.

"I can't say that enough! The machine gun is not powerful enough, but how can it be said that he can ignore the current shield defense, this must be certain. After all, Borgegt is a professional in technology, and he has a strong interest in any new technology, and he also hits the point in one sentence.

"Watch its next battle! The Camberom of our association is also very strong. Long Yuntai was still not convinced.

'Camberom is very strong and it seems that the final is very likely

It was between the two of them. Borgegt rounded, "Is this kind of game a good one!" What do you say? ”

Long Yuntai and Gao De looked at each other for a moment, and they both saw a trace of expectation in each other's eyes.

On the second day, we and the other five winning teams: Camberom, Okcha, Jin Yunsheng, Zhang Yucheng and Bestol all came to the command center to watch the four teams eliminated in the first round of the semi-finals compete for the last two places, and after the places are released, there will be a draw for the next competition. Six groups of players sat in front of the projector in a large circle and waited for the game to begin. All six groups of next opponents are watching for the next possible opponents.

Camberom sat on our left, a group of people, his short blond hair standing on end, and his wide chin giving him an unusually resolute look. The dark-skinned Okcha and his companion Odin Maas had no expression on their faces, as if everyone owed them a lot of money. Jin Yunsheng and Zhang Yucheng and their buddies were typical Oriental faces, and they both nodded as a greeting when I turned to them. Bestol was the only one smiling, and he smiled even more whenever anyone turned to him.

The draws for the play-offs ended quickly, and Centling was drawn to a group with Adisha of the Academy of Mechanical Sciences against Jiang Shengyi and Lu Chengyun of the Machinery Association. Aditisha Sha is still in pure battle mech mode with strong firepower, while Jiang Shengyi and Lu Chengyun are more modest, and each mecha has a high-explosive grenade except for the laser gun. The two teams were inseparable, and in the end, it was Centlin and Eddy Sasha who narrowly won. However, there are only 3 mechs left, and the rest of the mechs are all lost, and I doubt that they can all be repaired in the afternoon and evening to participate in tomorrow's 8-in-4 game. About ten minutes after the end of the match, the victorious Centling and Aditisha also went to the viewing room to participate in the lottery ceremony.

Heim, the organizer of the tournament, came to the rostrum and looked at the eight groups of competitors with smiles on their faces: "First of all, congratulations to the eight groups of players for winning the place in the final semi-finals, you will represent Celta and other planets to come over the selection team for the final competition, I wish you all the best." However, according to the original arrangement, we still have to decide the champion internally, and the draw will be held below. We will determine the two seeded players before the draw, and the original plan was to draw eight players at random, but for now, it is better to determine the two seeded players in order to make the match more reasonable and avoid the best players meeting in advance. The criteria are based on the amount of their own mechs lost in previous matches, and the top two groups with the least losses are seeded players. ”

Yun Hao and I glanced at each other, this regulation is in our favor, so far we have only lost 5 mechas, it should be the first place, and I don't know who the second seed is. As if trying to see how we reacted to the seeding rules, Heim glanced at us with his deep, smiling eyes to see that we hadn't spoken much, and he pressed his hand on the table, and a matchup immediately popped up in front of us. The battle chart is divided into four small boxes on the left and right, and there are no names in the boxes yet.

"The one who lost the least was Xu Yunhao's group, and he only lost 5 mechas." Haim dragged the figure five so long, as if the number would bring him good luck.

"Wow!" Everyone gave a look of disbelief, knowing that they basically lost more than 5 planes in a game

On the mecha, although I believe they have heard of someone playing 15:0 in the preliminary round, but when it was actually announced, it also surprised them.

Everyone's expressions should have pleased Haim, and he smiled even more happily: "The second seed is Camberom, and his loss is 16 mechs. ”

"Oh!" This time it was Yun Hao's turn to be surprised, our low battle damage rate was based on the mecha death area discovered by Yun Hao, and I don't know how Camberom did it. Looks like it's time to study him well. The names of Yun Hao and Camberom appear in succession in the first box on the left and the first box on the right of the box, and then the numbers 3, 5 and 7 appear in the remaining three squares on the left, and 4, 6 and 8 appear in the three squares on the right.

Heim turned his head to look at the matchup chart behind him and took out a box from under the table and said: "There are six balls in this box, each ball has a number on it, and you will come up in the order of the light brain draw, and the ball will correspond to the number position on the matchup map, do you understand?" ”

"Got it!"

A small column popped up on the projector, and a personal name and 1~6 numbers flashed quickly on it, and when Heim reported the stop, the remaining six people all got their own lottery order, from 1 to 6 were Centrin, Zhang Yucheng, Eddy Shasha, Bestol, Okcha, Jin Yunsheng. Sentrin was the first to take the stage, and he looked at me as he put his hand into the box, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Number Five!" Haim loudly announced the results, and Centrin managed to avoid the two seeds, which should have been a good thing for him, but he didn't show much joy. Next, Zhang Yucheng drew the No. 8 and successfully avoided the two seeded players. Eddy Shasha drew the number 7, and the two teammates who had fought together now immediately became opponents, and Eddy Shasha shook his head with a wry smile. After three rounds, the seeded players have not yet met their opponents, and Bestol is the fourth to take the stage, and if he does not draw any seeded players, it can only be said that the last two players are a little less lucky.

"Number Three!" Heim seemed relieved and stared straight at the number three on the ball. Bestol turned to me and Yun Hao with the ball in his hand, still smiling, as if to say that I was coming. In the end, Okcha drew No. 4, and No. 6 went to Jin Yunsheng.

After the draw, Yun Hao and I went to his office to learn about the opponent's situation again, summed up the next tactical tactics, and prepared for the next battle.

The battle of eight into four unexpectedly went surprisingly well. The distance between the two sides on the battlefield was only 820 meters, and the two sides took a look at each other as soon as they appeared, and our good tactical literacy was only reflected at this time. In the blink of an eye, our mecha completed the whole process of concealment, discovering the enemy's situation, and aiming and shooting. In three seconds, the battle was over, and the distance of 820 meters was enough for a bullet to penetrate two layers of thickened steel plates. It was later discovered that Bestolto's mecha had two steel plates added to it like Centrin.

The four-in-two battle was even more interesting, as we ran into our old rival Centrin, and after knowing that his mech had two steel plates added, we didn't make another mistake and defeated him again with only one mech. Centrin congratulated us after the game and it seems that he was convinced.
