Chapter 13: The duel begins
The wind blew through the wilderness, making a strange whistling sound that echoed across the vast land for a long time.
Liu Yi seized the last moment to adjust the parameters of the mecha, striving to make every detail perfect, while Shangguanqi lay down in the palm of the mecha with a relaxed face and smoked a cigarette, as if he was enjoying a vacation.
"Loosen the RA-15 hydraulic valve on the leg a little more, my data here shows that the pressure is a little too high." Liu Yi fiddled with the computer and instructed the workers beside him.
"I said don't you need to be so nervous, okay?" Shangguan Qi said with a smile as he looked at Liu Yi below.
Liu Yi didn't even raise his head and said: "I'm not as easy as you, if you don't get these things right, it will be my responsibility in case you lose." ”
"You have a little confidence in me, no matter what, I can't deal with a non-formal civilian person, right? So you can rest assured, even if this mech's performance is only 50 percent, it will be enough for me to defeat him. ”
"So you're formally trained?"
"Of course, the battle I have experienced is not this kind of pediatric level, it is a real life-and-death fight, if you are not careful, you will die, only a real master can survive." When Shangguanqi said this, there was a faint sadness in his eyes.
Liu Yi looked up at Shangguan Qi above his head, and said lightly: "Even if this is the case, I will try to do my best, I will not gamble with your life." ”
Shangguan Qi was a little moved when he heard this, but he said: "You, you're too careful, how can everything in this world be perfect, take it easy." ”
As he spoke, someone shouted, "Here they are!" ”
Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi followed the sound and saw that the dust was flying in the wilderness, and a convoy was driving towards this side.
"Wow! It's a huge crowd of people. Shangguan Qi sneered.
Liu Yi took a look at the binoculars, and sure enough, there were a lot of people coming from the other side, and the three super-large trucks were full of goods, which were tightly covered with cloth, presumably they should be mechas. In addition, there are dozens of vehicles, large and small, like a heavily armed army, and the battle is really not small.
The other party drove towards Liu Yi and the others with a fierce attitude, except for Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi who were still calm, the faces of the others showed a trace of timidity more or less.
Liu Yixin said: "This is inevitable, after all, the other party is a well-known figure in the Yaqiu underworld, and it is impossible not to be afraid at all." ”
Soon, the other party's convoy stopped a few hundred meters away from Liu Yi and the others, drove out of the convoy several off-road vehicles, and went straight to this side.
The off-road vehicle stopped in front of the mecha, and a group of people jumped out of the car, one of whom was the old man Liu who was in charge of mediating for both sides.
Old man Liu is not young, and the bumps along the way made him a little unbearable, only to see that his face was a little blue, and he was a little limping when he walked.
"Alas...... I'm getting old, and I've almost broken my bones along the way. Old man Liu complained.
Liu Yi hurriedly greeted him and said, "The old man has worked hard, do you want to sit down and rest." ”
"Naturally, we have to rest, but let's get down to business first, and then there's nothing to do with me." Old Man Liu slapped his waist and said, "Come, both sides come over, let's see each other first." ”
Hearing Old Man Liu's greeting, Liu Yi hurriedly took a few steps forward, and at this time, Shangguan Qi also got down from the mecha and stood side by side with Liu Yi.
A burly man from the crowd of the Iron Cavalry Gang walked out, stepped in front of Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi, and looked at the two of them up and down.
Liu Yi looked at this person, his figure was half a head taller than Shangguan Qi, his skin was darker, two thick eyebrows, a pair of big round eyes, a tall nose bridge, and a goose egg face with a little childishness, which was clearly a baby face.
If it weren't for this person's beard, I'm afraid he would only be regarded as a big boy, who would have thought that this person would actually be the famous Iron Rider Gang boss Ke Rin.
Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi were both a little surprised by Ke Rin's appearance, and couldn't help but exchange glances with each other, and they both saw a look of surprise on each other's faces.
However, Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi didn't know, Ke Rin's heart was also a little surprised at this time, he thought that these two people who dared to argue with him must be two stunned young people, but he didn't expect that one of these two people looked polite and polite, and the other looked young but weathered, it was strange enough for such two people to get together.
The three of them looked at each other with big eyes, and the others seemed to have smelled the smell of gunpowder on the side, but no one dared to disturb rashly, for fear that this fire would burn themselves.
In the end, it was only Old Man Liu who spoke: "That...... Let me tell me...... Don't be so tense just yet. ”
"Humph!" Shangguan Qi and Ke Rin snorted coldly at the same time.
Liu Yi hurriedly turned to Old Man Liu and said, "Old Man has something to say, please say." ”
"Since I'm the notary of this duel, I'll explain some things first, according to the agreement in advance, this duel will end until one of the mechs can no longer fight, try not to hurt your life, after all, human life will attract the attention of the police, so I hope you can stop it......"
It was not the first time that Mr. Liu had served as a notary public for a duel, and he introduced the various rules one by one, and Liu Yi listened very carefully and kept the key points in mind.
And Shangguanqi and Ke Rin didn't care about Old Man Liu's words at all, the two stared at each other from beginning to end, like two boxers about to fight, just waiting for the referee to give the order, and they were about to attack each other.
Old man Liu finally finished speaking, he was already tired and sweaty, and Liu Yi hurriedly asked someone to bring a chair for the old man to sit down.
At this time, Old Man Liu finally said: "Okay, I'm done, do you want to sign a document?" lest there be a lawsuit in the future......"
"No need, I, Ke Rin, am not an untrustworthy person, no one in Yaqiu City knows!" Ke Rin said coldly.
"It's okay, anyway, it'll be over in a few minutes, what documents are you going to sign." Shangguanqi fought back without showing weakness.
"That's good, I even brought an ambulance over there, and I'll let you lie in in a while." Ke Rin pointed his finger at Shangguan Qi's chest and said.
"Get your dirty hands away!" Shangguanqi roared, "The ambulance is for you, right?" I think you'd better get the funeral car ready. ”
The more the two of them talked, the more angry they became, and seeing that they were about to start fighting, Liu Yi hurriedly came over to separate the two and said sharply: "Okay!" Let's talk about mechas! ”
Shangguanqi and Ke Rin stopped talking, glared at each other viciously, and turned to leave.
With a wave of his hand, Ke Rin jumped into the off-road vehicle with a group of his subordinates, and roared towards his convoy.
Liu Yi saw that they were walking away, and then turned to Shangguan Qi and said, "Don't be so impulsive in the future, it's about to start, you have to calm yourself down." ”
Shangguan Qi sneered: "Don't worry, this kid won't anger me, I've seen a big battle." ”
Seeing that Shangguan Qi really didn't look like he was provoked, Liu Yi's heart relaxed a little, and said, "Ready to start, I'm no longer a problem here." ”
"Look at me, I'll show this kid what real mecha piloting skills are." Shangguanqi said confidently.
Here, Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi were making final preparations, and the Iron Riders had already unloaded the mecha from the giant truck. This time, Ke Rin brought three mechas, all of which were military-grade, except for the operating system and power core, which were not original, and the other parts were no different from when they were in service.
Ke Rin had already seen Shangguanqi's mecha just now, it was a relatively common Hunter Type 3, which belonged to a light mecha, and some parts had been modified, and it was obviously not the original cargo.
Ke Rin has dueled with others with mecha dozens of times, large and small, and has accumulated rich experience, and he believes in one principle, the performance of the original military mecha is far superior to that of various civilian modified mechas.
Therefore, the mecha he uses is trying to restore the original appearance of the military mecha, except for the operating system and the power core, which is really no way, the other parts try to use the original products, so as to maintain the greatest advantage of the military mecha.
"Boss, how are their mechs?" One of the subordinates who was close to Ke Rin asked.
"Humph! Modified goods. How could it be my big baby's opponent......" Ke Rin said, smugly patting the mecha standing in front of him.
Ke Rin's mecha is the Lancer Type 4, a veritable heavy armor mecha, which is not only more powerful and powerful, but also carries a lot of weapons, and belongs to the main model in the army.
The reason why Ke Rin brought three mechs this time was that he planned to decide which one to use according to the opponent's mecha, because the other party used the Light Hunter Type 3, so Ke Rin chose this lancer without even thinking about it.
Ke Rin's idea is very direct and simple, the heavy armor of the lancer has a high defense, and it is difficult for the weapon carried by the hunter such a light mecha to cause serious damage to the heavy armor of the lancer, as long as the opponent can't beat him, will there be any suspense in this victory?
"Boss is ready to go." The subordinate reminded.
"Got it." Ke Rin agreed, put on his helmet, and climbed onto the mecha with his hands and feet.
Ke Rin sat on the chair in the cockpit, took a deep breath, and then inserted the identification card into the card slot, and with a prompt sound, the various indicators and lights in the cockpit were lit up one by one, and the huge mecha let out a roar, and the cockpit trembled.
The noise made by the mecha was like the sound of war drums, beating on Ke Rin's heart all at once, and the adrenaline rushed down his spine and into his brain, making his whole person start to get excited from the inside out.
"Come on! Let me show you what it means to be the number one master in Yaqiu City! Kirin shouted excitedly.
