Chapter 42: Rivals
[Horizontal Knife] is a humanoid mecha developed by the Kunlun Sect Dharma Treasure Hall, eight meters high, weighing 36 tons, using the Kunlun Sect's three-core eight-line loop engine, with sufficient power and strong explosive power, known for its bravery.
Its external armor is made up of forty-eight Roque alloy components, and its defensive power is also quite impressive.
This mech is very powerful in attack and defense, and it is also equipped with a huge titanium horizontal knife as a weapon.
This is where the name of [Horizontal Knife] comes from!
The advantages of the [Horizontal Knife] mecha are quite prominent, and similarly, the disadvantages are also very obvious. Due to its large size, the agility of the [Horizontal Knife] is inferior to that of most private combat mechs on the market.
Similarly, the outer armor of this mech is very bulky, and when moving, it requires a lot of energy, and it is not suitable for long-term combat at all.
The advantages and disadvantages of this mecha are two diametrically opposed extremes, and how much power it can exert in a ring fight depends on the driver's control skills.
However, the mecha in front of him is obviously modified.
In terms of appearance, the height of the fuselage alone increases by one meter, which will increase the weight of the mecha by at least 5 to 6 tons. Similarly, the fuselage of this [Horizontal Knife] is much more bloated than that of the same mecha, and it seems that the external armor and internal parts have been replaced. It is estimated that the defense has been thickened.
In addition, there is the weapon that is equipped, which is no longer a horizontal sword, but a longer greatsword.
This giant sword is at least one-third larger than the original horizontal sword, like a shield, even if it is not opened, if it is directly slashed, it is estimated that it can smash an ordinary mecha into two.
This is definitely not an easy opponent to deal with.
After Loki used the mecha radar to scan the modified [Horizontal Knife], he came to this conclusion. I didn't expect to encounter such a tricky enemy as soon as I got on the field! It's a bit difficult, but you can't be careless!
When Loki looked at the other party, the machine in the modified [Horizontal Knife] was also looking at the [Demon Wolf].
The opponent turned out to be a beast-shaped mecha, which made the [Horizontal Knife] machine obviously a little stunned.
You must know that the beast-type mecha is not favored in the private mecha fighting competition. Everyone who pilots a beast-type mecha is either a rookie who doesn't know anything, or a master with absolute self-confidence.
The machine of [Horizontal Knife], in addition to being a mecha enthusiast, is actually a cultivator, and he is also the kind of cultivator who has fought with demon beasts on the battlefield.
So, he doesn't take any opponent lightly.
When he saw the cool-looking [Demon Wolf] mecha, his face did not have the slightest contempt, but became more solemn.
A synthesized sound of "beep" sounded over the venue, and the countdown to the game began.
[Horizontal Knife] drew the giant sword behind his back, and the two mechanical palms tightly grasped the hilt.
[Demon Wolf] is also concentrating, with a slightly low forefoot supporting the weight of most of his body, and two thick mechanical hind legs gently rubbing the ground, ready to go!
"Toot!"
When the last timer sounds, "The race begins!" The synthesized sound of the system quickly spread throughout the audience.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" ……
Almost at the same time, all the mechs in the arena rushed out, like fierce beasts out of the cage, pounced on their respective opponents.
Loki also let out a low roar when he controlled the [Demon Wolf], and his hind foot slammed on, and the hard synthetic rubber on the ground was unexpectedly scratched with several white marks.
The [Demon Wolf] mecha was like a boring bullet, galloping towards the [Horizontal Knife].
[Horizontal Knife] also kicked the ground, and the huge impact force made the entire ring also vibrate slightly. The two mechanical arms held the giant sword diagonally without a sharp edge, and also rushed towards the [Demon Wolf].
The fuselage of the [Horizontal Knife] is bulky, and its speed is naturally slower than that of the [Demon Wolf], but every step it takes, it looks extremely calm, like a reef in the torrent, unshakable!
With a distance of more than two hundred meters, for two mechs, it is a blink of an eye.
"Whew!"
The moment the two sides approached, the giant sword of the [Horizontal Knife] slashed down rapidly, and the round blade brought a chilling sound of breaking wind, slashing straight down towards the head of the [Demon Wolf].
This sword is fast and ruthless, and if it is slashed, it is estimated that the entire [Demon Wolf]'s head will also be smashed.
[Demon Wolf] roared and roared, his body suddenly froze, his running body stopped when he said it, and the fuselage stood up in an instant. The tip of the sword slashed less than a centimeter from the [Demon Wolf]'s chest, narrowly avoiding the attack of the giant sword.
"Boom!"
The greatsword slashed to the ground, and the tough rubber floor was cut into a sword mark several feet deep.
The Demon Wolf successfully dodged the attack of the Horizontal Blade Greatsword and quickly launched a counterattack. I saw that one of its front paws suddenly fell on the giant sword that sank into the ground, and with one arm of force, it jumped with its hind foot, using its forefoot as a fulcrum, and its body circled half a circle, and then the two mechanical feet kicked fiercely towards the chest armor of the [horizontal knife].
This move is the core fighting technique of the mecha god of war: the one-arm spinning loop!
However, the first time Loki used it, because he was unskillful, his movements were stiff and incoherent, but his power should not be underestimated.
"Bang!"
There was a loud crash of metal.
[Demon Wolf] kicked with all his might, how great is the power? Even if it is a truck, it is estimated that it will be kicked directly!
[Horizontal Knife] was kicked by [Demon Wolf] head-on, and the external armor on his chest immediately dented, and his body involuntarily fell backwards. Every step of the mechanical foot leaves a deep footprint on the ground.
After retreating more than a dozen steps in succession, it seemed that he was about to retreat to the edge of the ring and step out of the boundary line.
According to the rules of the game, as long as you step out of the boundary line of the ring, you will be judged a loser.
The face of the fighter in the [Horizontal Knife] couldn't help but change, but at this time, the kicking force borne by the mecha had not been completely removed, and he couldn't stand firm at all.
In the midst of the lightning and flint, I saw the [Horizontal Knife] roar angrily, the fuselage forcibly twisted over, and the giant sword in his hand stabbed behind him suddenly.
"Bang!"
The greatsword plunged directly into the rubber floor of the ring.
With the support of the giant sword, it was hard to stabilize the figure!
At this time, the heel of the [horizontal knife] was less than half a meter away from the boundary line of the ring.
"It's dangerous!"
The fighter inside the [Horizontal Knife] secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and when he turned his head to look at the [Demon Wolf], his eyes revealed a strong battle intent.
"It's a pity!"
Seeing that [Horizontal Knife] was almost kicked out of the ring by himself, Loki sighed secretly.
I have already missed a chance to win just now, and if you kick it and chase after the victory, you may be able to force the opponent out of the arena directly.
"You're very good, I'll admit I underestimated you a little just now."
In the cabin of the [Horizontal Knife], a strong man's voice came out, "However, I won't make the same mistake a second time!" ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw the [Horizontal Knife] double ** move by mistake, as if he had performed a kind of footwork, his body quickly approached, and the giant sword in his hand swept directly with the sound of breaking the wind.
"I didn't expect to meet a strong opponent in the first game. But it's good that you have a strong opponent to practice and familiarize yourself with the newly learned martial arts techniques. Loki thought to himself. The [Demon Wolf] roared and rushed towards the [Horizontal Knife] without fear!
