Chapter 270 Pampering That Male Insect (33)
"Welcome to the StarNet Mech Battle Arena. You have been matched with an opponent."
"The battle is about to begin, please prepare for combat!"
Shen Wangchuan piloted the mecha gifted by the system, his eyes fixed on the mecha opposite him.
With its silver exterior and smooth curves, this mecha seemed familiar.
Of course, it's also possible that they encountered each other in previous battles, since Shen Wangchuan now knows very well who the pilot in the other mech's cockpit is.
Even if Ayan is a male insect in this world, he cannot underestimate his enemy because of that.
The moment the match began, the black mech shot towards Xie Liuyan's location like an arrow released from a bow.
Shen Wangchuan's control over the mecha was somewhat beyond Xie Liuyan's imagination.
He couldn't help but become serious, his fingers deftly pressing different operation buttons.
The two mechs engaged in a fierce aerial battle, exchanging blows.
As early as when Xie Liuyan piloted the mecha, a notification sound rang out in the hall: "Rank 10 Liu Ye has entered the StarNet Battle Room."
The system will notify the top-ranked mechs when they enter the battle room, and will also select the spectator mode by default.
Female insects who want to learn from expert players can enter the spectator room to learn.
"Liu Ye? Is that the one who defeated the tenth-ranked player? It's been a long time since we've seen him play."
"Yes, there haven't been any exciting matches lately, so I can only practice with some virtual mech battles."
"Who can argue with that? The mech competition is coming soon, and many bugs are preparing. Today is a good day to watch the masters' battles."
In an instant, a large number of insects poured into the spectator room, creating quite a lively scene.
Xie Liuyan originally knew that StarNet had a default function, but today's opponent was particularly special. As soon as he entered the battle room, he focused on preparing for the match against Shen Wangchuan.
I forgot to cancel the default option for a moment.
But at this moment he couldn't care less about anything else. He thought it was already good that Shen Wangchuan could pilot a mecha, but he didn't expect that the other party's level was no worse than his.
Although he didn't care much about winning or losing, this bet was very important, and he couldn't afford to lose.
Thinking of this, Xie Liuyan closed his eyes slightly, and the next second, his mental energy directly connected to the mecha system.
The mecha, which had been moving mechanically, suddenly seemed to come alive, leaving Shen Wangchuan, who had been handling it with relative ease, in awe.
It wasn't because Ayan's strength had suddenly increased, but rather because he seemed to have had this familiar feeling in previous battles as well.
As the two clashed, the spectators gasped in amazement.
"Is this dive-descent and turn-to-takeoff maneuver even possible for a Zerg player? This master is truly a master, a role model for us all."
"Today was worth it. Seeing these high-difficulty moves is enough for me to study for a while when I get back. Thank you, Master Liu Ye."
"No, I'll just say this quietly, am I the only one who noticed that the pilot of the mecha that fought against Liu Ye was also very good? After fighting for so long, the opponent is still not at a disadvantage."
"Did the mech rankings get updated again without our knowledge?"
Many insects noticed the black mecha piloted by Shen Wangchuan, whose expression was somewhat solemn.
Once he had a guess in mind, he kept maneuvering the mech to change its attack angle.
The more he was attacked, the more surprised he became.
The opponent's defensive tactics were exactly the same as those of the silver mech he encountered when he first came to the battle room!
He still remembered that the mecha was called Liu Ye!
Distracted for a moment, Xie Liuyan's lightsaber slashed down, severing one of Shen Wangchuan's mechanical arms.
Many experts in mecha could tell that the pilot of the black mecha had been distracted and failed to dodge in time.
It's a pity that a mech without arms can't perform at its best.
Xie Liuyan's lips curled slightly as he connected to the control screen of the opposite mecha:
"Give up, I won. Remember our bet."
Under the watchful eyes of the insects, the silver mech leaped up and slashed at the core energy of the black mech.
To everyone's surprise, the black mech didn't dodge or evade; instead, it turned around and used its back to meet the attack.
Many insects didn't want to see the black mech split in two.
Mech battles are brutal; they severely test the pilot's skills.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
The system notification sounded: "Match ended in a draw. Keep up the good work next time!"
How could it be a draw? It was clearly a foregone conclusion.
The female insects in the observation room were dumbfounded. When they watched the scene closely, they discovered that after the black mech caught the lightsaber with its back, it actually stabbed the silver mech's core energy source with its backhand.
It also lost its combat capability due to the large area of damage.
This is absolutely incredible! I never expected such a twist.
Originally, there was supposed to be a meeting between the pilots after the battle, just to make friends.
Unexpectedly, the spectator room was closed as soon as the battle ended, leaving many players who wanted to see the two masters disappointed.
The two parties involved had already severed their connection to the StarNet and returned to real life.
Shen Wangchuan was the first to wake up in the nutrient tank. He slowly sat up and met Xie Liuyan's eyes a few seconds later.
Shen Wangchuan spoke:
"Ayan, didn't we compete on the StarNet once before?"
"I never imagined that the insect back then was Ayan."
He always thought it was some powerful female insect and was even thinking of finding another opportunity to spar with it.
Xie Liuyan, caught off guard by the sudden revelation, found it somewhat amusing: "I never expected that the newcomer I thought had great potential would be you."
From the beginning until now, Shen Wangchuan's progress has been so rapid that he can now fight him to a draw.
"What about our bet?"
Although Shen Wangchuan had performed at his best, he couldn't compete with Ayan, who was a top player on the leaderboard.
If he had known that today's result would be a draw, he should have practiced more in his spare time and won the bets.
"How about this time..."
Shen Wangchuan's meaning was quite clear: if you count the days, it had been several days since the two of them had taken the final step.
Xie Liuyan raised an eyebrow. "We've tied, so there's no question of betting."
"At that time, we'll each have to rely on our own abilities in bed."
As they spoke, the two left the nutrient tank and headed to the bathroom while chatting.
I was all sweaty after the match and needed a shower to relax.
Although Shen Wangchuan was somewhat disappointed, he quickly composed himself.
Just as Xie Liuyan stepped into the bathroom and was about to close the door, he blocked the door frame. "Ayan, we're an old married couple now, so let's not stand on ceremony."
As he spoke, he quickly took off his shirt and went inside.
The rising steam blurred the frosted glass, and ambiguous sounds occasionally drifted out.
On May 0526th, I was forced offline again without doing anything.
0526, sounding aggrieved: ? ?
