Chapter 169: Chapter 169 Regrets (Additional Chapter for Alliance Leader, Flower Moon Night) (Fifth Update)
Su Ming had already maneuvered his mecha up close, suddenly raising his foot and kicking the Iron Guard’s body.
The Iron Guard’s mechanical frame jolted violently, tipping backward and crashing heavily to the ground.
At that moment, Su Ming withdrew his Spiral Long Spear and thrust it straight through the cockpit of the Iron Guard.
It must be said that this second-year student from Bikong Academy did have some skills. In a moment of crisis, he activated his Jet Wings to thrust in reverse, sliding his entire mecha across the ground.
The Spiral Long Spear immediately stabbed into the ground, missing its target.
Su Ming was somewhat surprised; this student’s reaction speed was quite good.
Little did he know that the student before him was already drenched in sweat, his face filled with panic. He began to suspect whether he had faced off against a third-year senior from Imperial Court Academy, whose strikes were so ruthless that each one seemed lethal.
But Su Ming had no intention of letting him go. He immediately opened his Jet Wings to assist his jump, and with a leap, he fiercely hurled the Spiral Long Spear at the gliding Iron Guard.
The eyes of the student from Bikong Academy bulged in shock.
Crack!
The entire Spiral Long Spear pierced directly into the cockpit, but it didn’t go all the way through; the spearhead protruded from the screen, coming just short of the driver’s face.
The student before him was frightened into a cold sweat.
At that time, Su Ming flew his mecha over, grabbed the long spear, and thrust powerfully.
Crack!
Accompanied by a scream, the entire long spear completely penetrated the cockpit, dealing a fatal blow!
After dealing with the two Iron Guards, Su Ming let out a slight sigh of relief.
Then, from afar, intense explosions sounded, and Su Ming’s brow furrowed. He immediately maneuvered the mecha toward the direction of the explosions.
However, before he had taken a few steps, a red warning box popped up on the operating screen.
"Warning: Fuel shortage, please refuel immediately!"
Su Ming reached out and dismissed the warning, controlling the mecha to move swiftly and circuitously, feeling his way forward.
....
On the other side, Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue broke out of the encirclement and escaped in the same direction, with two Iron Guards trailing behind them.
At that moment, two more Iron Guards appeared in front of them, suddenly blocking their path.
But Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue exchanged a glance and then no longer showed any sign of weakness. At once, Lin Chuyu charged the two Iron Guards ahead, while An Ruoxue turned to rush toward the two Iron Guards behind them.
Lin Chuyu raised her left arm to activate the hidden Beam Cannon, firing a beam at one of the Iron Guards.
That Iron Guard immediately predicted and dodged to the side!
Lin Chuyu’s speed was extremely fast as she attacked the other Iron Guard, piercing it sharply with her spear.
That Iron Guard was also very fierce, slashing back with its blade!
Boom~
Lin Chuyu’s long spear was immediately cut in half, showing that the raider’s strength was somewhat inferior.
But Lin Chuyu quickly retracted her spear and deftly swept it toward the Iron Guard.
The Iron Guard in front hastily retreated, its armor instantly gashed.
Just as Lin Chuyu was about to press her attack, the other Iron Guard came at her with extreme speed, slashing with its blade.
She immediately moved swiftly to dodge the attack, then pulled back to create some distance,
"Damn, can the students of Imperial Court Academy fight this well?"
These two students from Bikong Academy watched Lin Chuyu as if facing a formidable enemy.
At that time, Lin Chuyu began circling the two mechas, hunting them like a lone wolf.
The Iron Guard that Lin Chuyu had injured immediately spoke out in anger!
"Damn it, are we ambushing them, or are they hunting us? What a joke!"
"Don’t be rash, Wang Qiong!"
Wang Qiong’s companion quickly tried to dissuade him.
"I can’t stand it any longer!"
Wang Qiong charged straight at Lin Chuyu.
Seeing Wang Qiong coming at her, Lin Chuyu’s eyes narrowed, and without any hesitation, she seized the opportunity and rushed forward.
"Die!"
Wang Qiong struck fiercely with his blade, aiming a horizontal slash at Lin Chuyu’s head.
Lin Chuyu held her breath, abruptly controlling her mecha to duck down, and the sharp Alloy Blade swept through the air, missing its target.
"Damn!"
Wang Qiong’s eyes bulged; he was acutely aware of his own mistake.
Lin Chuyu, controlling the mecha at full power, thrust her Spiral Long Spear straight into the cockpit, killing Wang Qiong instantly.
"Damn it!"
At that moment, another Iron Guard rushed forward in anger. Lin Chuyu immediately withdrew her Spiral Long Spear and fearlessly met the charge.
...
Su Ming was maneuvering his mecha down the devastated streets when suddenly two Iron Guards burst out from the corner ahead.
The three collided head-on.
Su Ming immediately brought his mecha to a halt and, taking a deep breath, raised his Spiral Long Spear in front of the two Iron Guards.
These two Iron Guards, looking excitedly at Su Ming, said,
"Hey, we’ve got a loner here; lucky us."
"Let’s take him down together!"
"No problem!"
The two mechas immediately moved to flank Su Ming on both sides and charged towards him.
Su Ming, facing their pincer attack, showed no fear. He spun the Spiral Long Spear in his hand and fiercely charged at the Iron Guard on the left.
The Spiral Long Spear, with a whistling wind, aimed to pierce through the cockpit of the Iron Guard.
The Iron Guard, startled by Su Ming’s aggressive attack, quickly raised its Alloy Blade to block!
Crash!
Sparks scattered as the collision erupted, but the Spiral Long Spear was deflected.
However, before the Iron Guard could catch a breath, Su Ming quickly retracted the Spiral Long Spear and swept it again towards the Iron Guard.
Caught off guard, the Iron Guard could only raise its Alloy Blade to block again, stumbling backwards and directly suppressed by Su Ming.
Luckily for the guard, its partner, controlling another Iron Guard mecha, quickly circled behind Su Ming and attacked swiftly, bringing down a blade onto Su Ming!
"To hell with you!"
At that moment, Su Ming suddenly turned his raider on the spot and delivered a backhand thrust with his spear, piercing fiercely.
The Iron Guard was stunned, desperately trying to dodge to the side in panic.
Crack!
The entire Spiral Long Spear plunged into the cockpit, killing instantly!
Immediately after, Su Ming withdrew the Spiral Long Spear and turned to face the remaining Iron Guard.
This Iron Guard, frightened, began to retreat, its face betraying a ghostly expression as it looked at Su Ming.
"Are you a third-year from the Imperial Court Academy?"
Su Ming couldn’t be bothered to waste words; he didn’t have the habit of small talk or introducing himself. He immediately took control of his mecha and charged forward, ready to deal with the opponent.
But just as his mecha had barely moved a few meters, the power system suddenly failed, and the entire mecha came to a halt.
A warning popped up on the operation screen.
"Warning: Fuel Depleted...."
Su Ming was momentarily speechless, running out of fuel at such a critical moment.
At this point, the Iron Guard mecha in front of him, seeing Su Ming’s mecha shut down, went from panic to excitement, shouting ecstatically.
"Ha ha, you’re out of fuel; you’re done for now!"
"Sigh."
Su Ming too felt utterly helpless and could only sigh deeply and accept the reality.
If only he had a bit more fuel, he was confident that he could take down this guy, but life was full of "ifs."
"To death with you!"
The Iron Guard mecha excitedly charged at Su Ming, raising the Alloy Blade, ready to slash down.
Just then, a raider with its Jet Wings activated swooped in at ultra-low altitude, its spear piercing fiercely into the left flank of the Iron Guard!
"Ahh!"
The Iron Guard Mech Driver let out a cry of terror.
Before he could react, another raider came from behind at high speed, and its spear penetrated from the back into the cockpit.
"You, you, no honor, you all ganging up on me like this," the Iron Guard mech driver said in frustration.
The next second, the entire mecha’s power went out, and it knelt on the ground.
