The Nine-tailed Sheep's head seemed to bloom like fireworks.

Whether it's Lin Cheng in the driver's seat.

Or the students in the Command Center.

All was silent.

Then everyone looked in the direction of the cannon fire.

Then they saw a black and white mech crouching between two buildings in a residential area less than a kilometer from the Battlefield.

'Swift'!

The mech is holding a sniper rifle named ' White Dew '.

The snow-white gun barrel gleamed in the sunlight.

Smoke rose from the muzzle of the gun.

Seeing that it was 'Swift', Lin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, then said on the public channel, "Li Zi, when did you get back?"

"It startled me."

"I thought we got our kills stolen too."

"So it was you."

"You took out the people from Group A?"

"I didn't realize you were so capable."

Inside another mech.

Shen Yu frowned.

If Li Zi was going to join the battle, why didn't he give us a heads-up beforehand?

and.

She usually keeps a distance of two or three kilometers from her prey.

But now they're firing shots within a radius of less than a kilometer?

Sudden.

Shen Yu realized something.

He anxiously shouted over the public channel, "Be careful, that might be..."

Before the words had even finished...

'Swift' turned its gun around.

The mecha pointed at Lin Cheng.

Shot!

Bang!

Amidst the roar.

Lin Cheng's mecha took to the air.

Then he fell to the ground.

They slid for quite a long distance.

A blue bullet was embedded in the chest of the mecha.

The next second.

The warhead released an electromagnetic pulse, causing Lin Cheng's mecha to twitch uncontrollably and paralyze its circuitry.

Inside the driver's cab.

The lights suddenly dimmed.

The lights on various instruments flashed erratically, sparks flying.

at last.

The mech ceased operation.

The ' Empathy System ' shut down without even a notification when it went offline.

Lin Cheng looked completely bewildered.

A few seconds passed.

He then took off his helmet and roared, "Li Zi, are you fucking crazy?"

Why did you use Pulse Round on me?!

certainly.

The mech system is now paralyzed, and communications have long been cut off, so no one can hear his cries.

In the Command Center of Year Two B Group.

The students who were supposed to be advisors all became mute.

Looking at the dark red mech lying motionless on the ground on the big screen.

They all shouted.

"What is Li Zi doing? Why is he pointing a gun at his own people?"

Is there a malfunction?

"Can anyone contact her?"

"She didn't accept our communication requests."

At this moment.

Someone else exclaimed softly, "Look!"

On the big screen.

'Swift' turned its gun around again and fired at Shen Yu's mech.

However, Shen Yu was already prepared.

Form hand seals to release the 'empty wall'.

Then he decisively withdrew from the Battlefield.

'Swift' didn't give chase, but carried its sniper rifle and walked to the vicinity of Lin Cheng's mech.

At this moment.

Lin Cheng had already gotten out of the driver's seat.

Seeing 'Swift' approaching, Lin Cheng roared, "Li Zi, you come out here and explain yourself!"

But Li Zi did not respond to him.

'Swift' simply lowered its gun barrel and pointed it at the left arm joint of Lin Cheng's mecha.

Bang!

The loud gunshot made Lin Cheng's ears ache.

The resulting gust of air nearly blew him off his mech.

He was dumbfounded.

Watching 'Swift' blast his mech's joints apart with a single shot.

The outer armor of the machine was flying off, and parts were scattered all over the ground.

Bang bang bang!

'Swift' fired three shots in quick succession.

After destroying the other joints of the mech in sequence.

He then drew a dagger.

He squatted down.

They began prying open the armor on the mech's chest.

Lin Cheng could no longer hold back and roared, "Li Zi, you fucking stop right now!"

"Are you out of your mind? Why are you trying to pry open my mech?"

When!

A piece of the outer armor plate flew out and hit the side, flattening several cars.

'Swift' completely ignored it.

Not long after.

Lin Cheng saw 'Swift' disassemble the mecha's Energy Core, cut the connecting wires with a dagger, and then turn and leave.

Lin Cheng stood on the mecha.

He turned into a stone sculpture.

When the wind blows.

He suddenly felt very cold.

Especially in one's heart.

Wow, it's so cool!

In the Command Center of Year Two B Group.

The students sat down, looking utterly dejected.

He didn't react for a while.

Just then...

On their large screen, the judges' announcement appeared.

' Luo Yan, from Year A Group, slew the Lower-tier Giant Beast Bo Yi.'

The entire team will be awarded 1000 Credit Points.

' Luo Yan from Year A Group won the Group B mecha "Swift".'

'Award the individual 1200 Credit Points, which will also be added to the team's score.'

Year A Group is currently in the lead; students from other teams, please keep up the good work!

"Etc."

What does this mean?

"Why did Li Zi get Group A Credit Points even though he blew up the Nine-tailed Sheep's head?"

"No way?"

"Could it be that the person driving the 'Swift' just now wasn't Li Zi, but Luo Yan from Group A?"

The B group Command Center was immediately thrown into chaos.

At that moment, Shen Yu's voice came on the public channel.

"That's the only explanation."

"I had that thought just now."

"The judges' announcement now confirms my thoughts."

A male student shook his head and said, "Luo Yan actually stole 'Swift'? This is too surreal."

"Etc."

Even if he stole the 'Swift,' it was still our team's mech that fired the shot.

"So we should be credited with killing this giant beast!"

"Yes, yes, that's not fair!"

"We want to appeal!"

Soon, Group B filed an appeal with the judging panel.

but.

This request was quickly rejected.

The judges believed that although it was the 'Swift' that killed the giant beast, the pilot was Luo Yan.

Therefore, the original decision will be maintained.

Looking at the announcement.

The students in Group B were extremely depressed.

At this moment, Lin Cheng returned.

He picked up the communicator and contacted the judging panel at the base.

"This is Wei Fenghua." A response came quickly from the communicator.

Lin Cheng shouted loudly, "Teacher Wei, I want to file a complaint against that guy surnamed Luo!"

"He had already won, yet he still destroyed my mech and stole my Energy Core."

"How am I supposed to fight now?"

Wei Fenghua said calmly, "Then what do you think the judging panel should do?"

Without hesitation, Lin Cheng said, "Tell Luo Yan to return the Energy Core to me!"

"Make him fix my mech!"

Wei Fenghua continued, "Is there anything else?"

Lin Cheng thought for a moment, "He stole Li Zi's mecha, so he should return it to us, right?"

Wei Fenghua asked, "Is that all?"

Lin Cheng hummed in agreement. "That's all."

Wei Fenghua coughed twice, then said, "Lin Cheng, classmate."

"You'll be on the Battlefield later."

"The mech was destroyed, and the Energy Core was taken."

"Do you also want us to help you get the Energy Core back?"

Lin Cheng paused for a moment, then argued, "But teacher, this isn't Battlefield."

"Isn't this a test?"

Wei Fenghua said, "Yes, it's a test."

"But this is a 'real-world test,' don't you understand what 'real-world' means?"

"Then I'll tell you, it starts from the second you left the base."

"They're already on the Battlefield!"
