The Seventh Base

Chapter 621: Chapter 51: Locking onto the First?

Xu Mo fired, and a barrage of particle beams slew toward Salin.

Salin’s Netherworld Mecha’s left arm rose, firing back.

“Buzz!”

A muffled sound rang out as Salin’s mecha shot out an energy shock wave that turned into an umbrella-shaped shock wave upon meeting the opposing attack. The particle beams struck the shock wave, exploding wildly in that area in an instant.

The stands erupted with another round of enthusiastic cheers; Salin’s energy shock wave was incredibly strong, both offensive and defensive. Camp Star was renowned for its mechas in the domain of mechanical masters.

As the attacks exploded, even as the shock wave was destroyed, Salin’s mecha had already circled past that area and continued to charge forward. Xu Mo’s mecha was also flying at high speed, continuing to fire, but all were intercepted and exploded in mid-air by the shock wave.

Salin was on the attack, closing in on Xu Mo, using the shock wave to intercept Xu Mo’s attacks while his mecha rushed forward, aiming for close combat.

The genius mecha masters of Camp Star all had special talents, with very fast neural response speeds and inherently powerful brain computing capabilities, giving them a natural advantage in piloting mechas.

As Salin closed the distance, the explosions were getting closer to Xu Mo, and even the energy shock waves produced by the explosions could be felt.

Xu Mo realized that the opponent’s energy shock waves didn’t need to be very strong, just strong enough to detonate his particle beam attacks, effectively a powerful defensive barrier, while the opponent’s goal was to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

The high-speed-moving Xu Mo suddenly stopped, and the Netherworld Mecha hovered in the air, drawing the Energy Battle Blade from behind its back, with a roar rising from the stands in an instant.

Xu Mo was going to engage in close combat with Salin using cold weapons.

Salin also retracted the shock wave cannon on his left arm, while on his right was a huge club-like weapon, the front of the club featuring a spiked energy steel ball imbued with a sense of power.

“Buzz.”

Suddenly, Xu Mo charged at high speed toward Salin, both of them rushing straight toward each other in a head-on collision, making countless hearts race.

The people of Camp Star were all intently focused on that scene, their genius mecha master Salin was about to gain fame by stepping on the mecha pilot from Blue Star Energy Technology Group.

Boom.

A burst of strong light erupted as Salin ran at high speed, the club in his hand smashed down, emitting a strong energy light, aiming at Xu Mo’s mecha.

Xu Mo’s War Saber also slashed down, both were ready to make evasive maneuvers at the same time as they attacked, yet neither of them did, instead clashing hard against each other.

A torrent of violent power collided, and at the moment the War Saber and the club met, an energy explosion was triggered. The particle light flowing over the blade seemed to want to cut through the opponent’s weapon, but the horrifying power of the giant club was about to shatter Xu Mo.

“Bang!”

A loud noise sounded, and the two retreated upon contact, but in an instant, they charged forward again without any pause.

“Buzz.” Salin swung his club down again, aiming for the head of the Netherworld Mecha from a tricky angle. As Xu Mo flew at high speed, his Netherworld Mecha dodged sideways while the War Saber also slashed at the head of the opposing mecha. The two mechas seemed to graze past each other as they switched positions in an instant, neither striking the other.

The Netherworld Mecha hovered in the air, watching Salin below.

This time, Salin initiated the charge, rushing toward Xu Mo at a terrifying speed.

The huge club filled with destructive energy light smashed down. Xu Mo raised his War Saber to block. With a crashing sound, the mecha was knocked back, only to see Salin’s mech spinning in the air, striking down again, and with another loud noise, Xu Mo was pushed back further.

“Bang bang bang.” Salin attacked relentlessly, advancing aggressively, pressing the Netherworld Mecha into constant retreat with deafening noises, exciting countless spectators, as Salin’s mecha suppressed the Hunter’s.

The people at the Mechanical God Arena had no particular allegiance, they supported whoever was stronger, as long as the fight was thrilling, they were all fervent warmongers.

After the fierce collision between the two mechas, they separated, and Salin gazed at Xu Mo.

“Aside from the weapon advantage, do you have any other tricks?” Salin arrogantly spoke, his tone was domineering as if he did not consider Xu Mo worth his attention.

This mecha pilot, whose fame shook the Mechanical God Arena, was not as strong as imagined. Today, he would prove to everyone that Camp Star’s mecha masters were the true mecha pilots.

“Your attack speed is pretty good, as are your strength and reaction speed,” Xu Mo suddenly spoke up, causing Salin to blink, the Salin inside the mecha frowned. What did Xu Mo mean by that?

Was he complimenting him?

Yet the tone carried disdain, as if he did not take him seriously at all.

“I’m done playing with you,” Xu Mo continued, and Salin’s face turned ashen. Playing with him?

Such a brazen statement.

Xu Mo’s left arm rose again, charging up.

His right hand’s Energy Battle Blade was flowing with an even more terrifying particle beam.

Salin frowned, this trick again?

It was pointless. He had come into this battle targeting Xu Mo, using him as a hypothetical enemy. He had chosen the shock wave weapon system, with both types of weapons designed to counter Xu Mo.

“Buzz.”

Xu Mo piloted the Netherworld Mecha to charge at high speed toward Salin, his left arm firing.

Salin snorted coldly, the shock wave burst forth, a terrifying wave of power surging forward, becoming an energy umbrella, and upon meeting the particle beam, it exploded.

But he saw that Xu Mo’s Netherworld Mecha burst through the shock wave and kept coming toward him.
