…………

The commercial street of the old city is the most prosperous pedestrian street in Liberty City, starting from the Freedom Monument Square in the north and connecting the new commercial building in the south, nearly 10,000 meters long, the ground is all paved with uneven stone bricks with a sense of history, and the buildings on both sides of the street cover the ancient Renaissance period of the earth, Baroque style and other architectural styles.

The café on the corner has almost the same history as this shopping street, and everything in the interior is not worn, but has truly experienced the vicissitudes of time.

Such a stylish old store will naturally attract many young people who think they have style, as well as petty bourgeois white-collar workers.

They like to drink a cup of coffee leisurely in the store looking out the window at the hurried crowd, and prefer to whisper here, of course, what they like most is to look at the people they like with affection under the dim light of the old store, say what they like to say, and do what they like.

Zhang Yi's eyes have always been very good, and his afterglow inadvertently swept to the little couple kissing in the card room diagonally opposite, although this kind of kiss seems very romantic in the accompaniment of the piano, but if the kiss exceeds the accompaniment of light music, it will look very ferocious.

Under this kind of ferocity, there is still a woman sitting in front of him who looks exactly like his ex-wife, Zhang Yi naturally can't help but think of a lot of dating pictures with Ye Yun in the early stage, but he clearly knows that Katie in front of him is not Ye Yun, and this feeling can be called 'egg pain'.

So Zhang Yi said: "In the future, we will become colleagues, you better not bring me to this kind of place ......." ”

But apparently Katie didn't grasp the point of this sentence, she only heard the confidence in this sentence, so she asked, "Are you so confident?" ”

Zhang Yi said modestly: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Ning Ning put down the straw, and then understood the meaning of this matter, thinking that it was not easy to find a job, and she had to fight.

It's just that although Ning Ning is used to Zhang Yi's always breezy words, Katie is not used to it, listening to Zhang Yi's voice is okay, obviously self-humble, but there is still a bit of an arrogant voice, she has to remind: "Don't take the enemy lightly, Sui Qiang is a professional pilot who has participated in the Mecha League." “

Ning Ning's eyes widened this time, of course the Galactic Mecha Alliance was a deterrent to her, and she glanced at her uncle.

The uncle was still the same dead as before, and it seemed that nothing could make him look surprised.

The Galactic Mecha League has a certain deterrent effect for any pilot, because there are the best top pilots in the galaxy gathered there.

It's just that that's just an ordinary mecha practitioner, Zhang Yi really doesn't have any sense of awe for the name of these words Galaxy Mecha Alliance, in his opinion, the real pilot can only be in the army, but the Galaxy Mecha Alliance is indeed worth learning in melee mecha fighting.

If war breaks out, in front of real mechas, the pilots of the Galactic Mecha Alliance will be as fragile as a piece of tofu.

Of course, this is just his habitual thinking, but his flat expression quickly made Katie understand that Zhang Yi is not only a very angular person, but also a very proud person.

However, judging from his test papers, he does have the capital of pride, but since he came here to invite Zhang Yi to face off against Sui Qiang, Zhang Yi will represent her and Professor Sun Bolun's mecha team, and he will say more.

"I still have to solemnly remind you that although Sui Qiang has only seen a water cooler in the Galaxy Mecha League and never appeared, it can also be seen that his strength is far superior to that of an amateur pilot."

Ning Ning exhaled when she heard the water dispenser, but she still honestly didn't interject.

Zhang Yi had no choice but to follow Katie and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I won't underestimate the enemy." ”

Although he said so, a player in the mecha league who watched the water cooler really made it difficult for Zhang Yi to lift his spirit.

At this point, Katie naturally didn't say much, she took a sip of coffee, turned her head to look at the increasingly crowded crowd outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and asked, "What day is today, why are there so many people?" ”

Zhang Yi shook his head, he was naturally even more unclear about these things, and Ning Ning gave the answer: "Today's Galaxy Mecha League Asian League finals, the battle of life and death, of course, there is a big screen." ”

Zhang Yi and Katie said 'oh' in unison, Katie looked at the direction of the flow of most people should be Freedom Monument Square, and naturally remembered where there was an old ice cream shop, where the ice cream tasted very childish.

She smiled and said, "I'm going to treat you to ice cream?" ”

Ning Ning's eyes lit up immediately when she heard the word ice cream, but a few days ago, the uncle made a recipe for her, ice cream, fried chicken, it is strictly forbidden, she had to take a pitiful look at the uncle, Zhang Yi nodded, Ning Ning said angrily: "I want to eat double!" ”

…………

The evening breeze was blowing, not a trace of coolness, still steaming.

Liberty City's shopping streets are overcrowded, and the direction of the flow of people is indeed Liberty Monument Square.

A huge screen was projected on the square today, and in the middle of the screen, the three hosts of the Galaxy Mecha Alliance were talking about pre-war analysis.

This game is a divisional final within the Asian League, and it is crucial to enter the Galaxy Mecha Major League playoffs, so there is a crowded scene that is not a holiday today.

After walking in the crowd for fifteen minutes, Katie took Zhang Yi and Ning Ning to the ice cream shop, and after asking, the merchant moved the ice cream machine to the Freedom Monument in order to sell better, to supply the huge flow of people that the game will inevitably bring today.

Zhang Yi looked from afar and saw the monument of Liberty City up to 100 meters, the surface of which was carved with countless names that fought for freedom, of course, he was just looking for an ice cream stall, and swept it without going back to history.

To the left of the Freedom Monument, there are more than a dozen snack shops lined up, and many people who came to see the game were queuing up to buy them.

Zhang Yike didn't have any idea of queuing, he hated queuing the most, but Ning Ning and Katie were not afraid of trouble, the two of them didn't know when they held small hands and headed towards the ice cream stall, and Ning Ning turned around and asked, "Uncle, what flavor do you want to eat?" ”

Zhang Yi's answer was, and he sat down on the steps in two steps: "Whatever." ”

Then he watched Katie and Ning Ning disappear into the crowd, and naturally raised his head and looked at the huge light screen projected.

The commentators on the screen are still analyzing the high-profile final of the Asian League from all angles, and as their increasingly heated rhetoric also sets off the tension before the game.

Of course, Zhang Yi doesn't have any nervousness, although he has watched very few games in the Galaxy Mecha League, he feels that the Galaxy Mecha League still has some merits, and the desirable thing is that 'melee combat!' ’。

As we all know, mechs on the battlefield have long-range weapons, armed from top to bottom to the teeth.

Mechs can shoot down fighter jets in the air, dive into the water to play hide-and-seek with submarines, and even go into space for short fights, everything about such war machines has been developed more and more over the past hundred years.

However, Zhang Yi has always believed that a powerful mecha melee group can also exert unexpected power on the battlefield if it has appropriate technological development and tacit cooperation.

It's just that melee combat on the battlefield is too dangerous, unless it has reached the point of hand-to-hand combat, otherwise who will obviously have long-range artillery, but still stupidly rush into the enemy group to die.

The Galactic Mecha League has always insisted on melee combat because only melee mechs can bring the audience a feeling of blood rushing.

Over the years, the melee development of the Galaxy Mecha Alliance has become more and more interesting, especially after the emergence of the energy shield, so that long-range firepower is no longer a lethal threat, the group combat of the Galaxy Mecha Alliance has become more and more beautiful.

If this technology is perfect enough, it is not difficult to imagine that the mecha can completely set off a mecha storm on the battlefield in the future through the protection of the protective shield.

Of course, the idea in Zhang Yi's mind still doesn't seem close to reality, because such a melee force needs a high-end pilot, but such a pilot is meat in the palm of his hand in any federation, so it will be used to form a melee corps?

Just thinking about these things, Zhang Yi heard the sound of the mountain and the tsunami.

Obviously, at the beginning of the much-anticipated Asian League finals, one after another cooled mecha appeared in the light screen, and with the irritable voice of the MC on the spot, the emotions of the people in the Freedom Memorial Square, even if they were just watching the live broadcast, were completely ignited.

At the same time, a deafening roar resounded through the sky!

Zhang Yi pressed his ear, looked at the hot scene of the Galaxy Mecha Alliance in the light screen, and felt that the sound was too loud.

And at this moment, a wave of unprovoked qi seemed to erupt from the huge projection screen, and Zhang Yi, who was sitting very far away, dilated his pupils, and he felt a huge thrust.

After this huge force came, another roar exploded in people's ears.

The sound did not come from the light screen, but from the Freedom Monument, where countless pieces of stone flew into the sky, and at the same time, flames burst out to swallow the crowd closest to the light screen.

The earth began to tremble, black smoke began to rise, and the beautiful picture in front of me turned black and white in an instant, and everything was shattered in an instant after the roar shattered the eardrums!

Zhang Yi was stunned for a full three seconds, until someone next to him subconsciously let out a scream, and then this scream spread like a plague, his face was as pale as paper, and he realized what had happened!
