Dark Sanctuary Academy, Jungle Training Ground -

The three-person team sped through the jungle, heading towards the target point on the electronic map. "Ahh With the exclamation of the fall, several mechs hidden behind the trunks of the trees were accurately hit by Catherine and fell to the ground. Xingchen and Shirley, who were following Catherine, had an inexplicable feeling at this time, and when they came back from the hangar, Catherine seemed to be a different person. It's as if this forest is just a stage for her alone, and they are just spectators.

Xingchen cautiously chose a pulse mech that was excellent for both melee and range, while Shirley was more aggressive, opting for the Heresy Gundam Type Blue, which was completely biased towards melee combat. At this time, the full-length double-edged greatsword behind her formed a clear visual contrast with this petite girl, which seemed a little funny.

"It's faster, it's more accurate, if it's this machine, I can be more ......," Catherine looked at the beam rifle in her hand, filled with infinite confidence.

"We're almost in the target area, Sister Yi, let's slow down a little." Shirley suggested.

"Be careful!" Xingchen sensed something and shouted, "Rapid descent!" ”

The three of them reacted quickly and immediately dived downward. More than a dozen cannonballs grazed their heads and flew into the distance, and Catherine hurriedly beckoned Xingchen and Shirley to hide behind tree trunks. Because there is radio communication, there will be no communication inconvenience.

"This cannon, is the long-range sniper mode of the EZ-8." Catherine could tell the opponent's body just by looking at the shells.

"Hey, there are at least a dozen of them, counting the rest of the bodies, it is conservatively estimated that there are more than thirty bodies in front." Xingchen roughly estimated the situation, it seems that this is the fortress of defense, "It's just a foul!" ”

"It seems that the other party attaches great importance to our team, oops, it feels good to be taken seriously." Shirley said, although she didn't think of any good breakthrough methods for a while.

"I will accept this sentence as a compliment first." Catherine's eyes began to burn. She raised her rifle and spread the wings behind her back.

"Sister Yi, you ......" Seeing Catherine's actions, Shirley couldn't help but be speechless. For battle, Tsubasa seems to be forever full of burning passion.

"It's okay, I'm very confident in myself, and the sniper unit on the other side doesn't seem to be of a good level," Catherine didn't mean to mock, just to be realistic, "The right way should be crossfire, judging from the trajectory of the ballistics, they are very concentrated, and they all shoot out all the shells in one go, and there is no time difference at all, so they can't hit me at all." ”

"But it's still too dangerous." Shirley was still uneasy.

"Listen up. Since Nagisa is not here now, then here is the highest-ranking me who has the final say," Catherine didn't talk nonsense, and said directly in a commanding tone, "When I fly above to attract firepower, you can quickly advance from a low altitude, as long as you disrupt the enemy's position, I can break into the firing range." When the time comes, we will both strike at the same time. ”

"It's a little too simple — no, it's too ideal." Although Xingchen said it, he was also prepared for a surprise attack according to her advice.

"The other party is not a professional soldier, it is enough to take into account this level." Catherine disagreed, slowly climbing up the tree trunk, then stopped at a suitable spot, held her breath, and began the countdown, "Then - three, two, one, action!" ”

Spreading her blue wings, Catherine flew straight out from behind the trunk, and as expected, the cannon struck again. Catherine dodged all the shelling with a deft side flip, immediately switched to the propulsion device fully open, and broke forward non-stop.

At the same time, Xingchen and Shirley on the ground had already broken through a long distance, but this also immediately attracted the attention of the other side, and several different models of mechs no longer cared about Catherine, but rushed towards the two people in the low altitude.

"Ah, actually, I really don't like to fight!" Wielding her blue greatsword, Shirley slashed down the front of the enemy. However, in terms of the weight of this big sword, it is more accurate to smash than to slash.

Unlike entrance exams, there are now protective devices on the body. Thanks to this, the enemy camp avoided heavy casualties. But I guess the pain is unavoidable, so I can only pray that the guy is not injured internally.

Shocked by the might of Shirley's greatsword, the enemy immediately stopped sprinting. Xingchen seized the gap, grabbed Shirley and broke through quickly, marching towards the sniper force behind.

Two of the enemy's reflexes immediately turned around, and just as they were about to open their push to chase the stars, the blue greatsword spun and flew between the two, smashing deep into the dirt. Without the weight of the great sword, Shirley's speed was immediately increased. She rushed to her weapon, reached for the hilt of her sword, and kicked the people who were about to chase the stars to the ground with two flying feet.

"Hey," said a front flip, and Shirley pulled out her big sword and stopped in front of everyone, "Your opponent is me!" ”

Rushing through the stars in front of the enemy, he drew his sword and held it in his hand. Although it is not as impactful as the Blue Heretic's greatsword in appearance, just by listening to the name, you know that the power of the sword should not be underestimated.

Due to the rush of time, Xingchen can only attack with a sword-mounted pulse, which is the least armed form, but it is also the form with the highest explosiveness and agility. The impulse ship knife is even more known as "Excalibur", and no one wants to be slashed by it.

The EZ-8 group, which focused on high-altitude sniping, obviously did not expect the defense line in front to be broken through so quickly, and as the first EZ-8 fell under Xingchen's hands, everyone suddenly noticed the arrival of this uninvited guest.

However, there were also students among these people who responded well, and immediately switched back to normal mode in high-altitude mode, raising the barrel of the cannon to aim at the stars. However, the rapidly spinning "Shimmering Blade" boomerang directly cut the barrel of the cannon in this person's hand from the middle, and returned to Xingchen's hand in a circle.

"Hehe, you are worthy of being the person chosen by the Dark Sanctuary Academy, and there are indeed two of them, but you are still far away!" A hint of excitement and pride began to appear in Xingchen's smile. All of the EZ-8s immediately retreated in all directions, closing the distance between them and the stars, and all of them reverted back to normal combat mode.

"I said, is it really okay to give up the high-altitude sniper mode entirely? Also, it's not necessarily a wise move to distance yourself from me. Xingchen's tone was full of smiles.

The people who didn't understand the meaning of the stars immediately realized their mistake the moment several mechs were hit by the beam guns in the distance in the next moment. In the moment they stopped sniping, the freedom of high mobility had reached a good position, and now everyone here was Catherine's target.

"That's enough shots," Star said over the radio to Catherine, "I'll take care of the rest, you hurry up and get to the target location." ”

There was no answer. Catherine substituted action for reply, dragging the sound of the wind and speeding freely over the heads of the crowd.

"Actually, the sword is not my specialty," Xingchen slung the sword over his shoulder, "but it's enough to deal with you." ”

The Abyss Knight Squad will not be Catherine's stage alone, and the two teenagers and girls who have carried their own missions are also destined to shine on this stage.

"It's so quiet." Catherine slowed down and flew close to the ground. I thought there would be a higher intensity defense inside, but no one has seen it until now, and this weird and unusual thing has given people more pressure.

"If you're going to be a target, it's around here." Rounding the last wooded area, a circular open area appears in front of you. However, in the middle of the clearing, the target that should have been set there was nowhere to be found.

"How so?" Catherine took a few steps forward, "Has it been broken by another team?" ”

"As I expected, you were the only one who got here first."

Catherine was startled by the sudden sound, and she fixed her eyes to see a red mech emerging out of the shadows in the trees opposite.

"Is that you?" What appeared in front of Catherine was Ferron, who was driving the Holy Shield.

"It seems that you have also obtained a good body," Feron could clearly sense the advantages and disadvantages of Catherine's body, "but it doesn't matter, no one will come to disturb us in this duel." ”

"Why are you here?" A not-so-good premonition rose in Catherine's heart. According to the information given by Sword Cat before, Fei Lun, who ranked first in the entrance test, did not need to attend this special training.
