Happy National Day, dear readers!!

Battle Map: City Alleyway Battle

The light around Mu Fan gradually brightened, and he was now inside the cockpit of the mecha [Wild Boar].

My hands naturally reached out to my sides, and a familiar grip similar to that of the RX-16 came through.

The rugged yet refined feel, the 176-key layout and the Half-Cycle Cockpit in front of him, made Mu Fan feel as if he had truly returned to the RX-16 Sword Shield Mecha.

Moreover, the key layout on the console is very comfortable. Mu Fan now extremely curious, as it is completely unlike the unfriendly key layout of the previous Ossified Stone.

Could it be that the biomimetic forms of Wild Boar and ostriches are different, and therefore their key layouts are also different?

Mu Fan is currently unable to control the mecha because he is still suspended in mid-air, and the mecha is falling rapidly.

Thump~

A heavy sound came, Mu Fan knew that the mecha had finally landed. At this time, the system's countdown had also ended.

A three-dimensional holographic image of the mecha itself also appeared on the screen.

Mu Fan's eyes widened, then grew rounder and rounder, and a light began to shimmer in them.

His excitement was palpable, because—

This is actually a humanoid mech!!

The mech has a brown outer shell, a rapid-fire rifle on its back, red paint on its fists, a small shield on its left forearm, and its right fist clenched.

Wild Boar

It is equipped with Fourth Generation Main Engine x1 and Land Auxiliary Engine Propulsion Group x2.

Weaponry: Jet Punch for both arms, Super Titanium Alloy Telescopic Shield (adjustable in real time from 1 to 5 times in area), and 45mm Rapid-Fire Rifle.

The mech was bulky and had a style similar to the RX-16, but the distribution of the outer armor seemed a bit rough to Mu Fan.

Compared to the RX-16's seamless, all-encompassing Heavy Shield, it feels like a previous generation product.

Mu Fan had no idea that he had stumbled upon a brilliant idea. The Wild Boar was a mecha that the military had mass-produced many years ago for large-scale ground combat. When this mecha appeared, the development of the Sword Shield Mecha was still in the exploratory stage, but the fundamental elements were preserved.

Thick-skinned and inexpensive.

At this point, the Wild Boar lacked an Alloy Heavy Sword and instead used its fists to unleash powerful punches.

"So you're the most normal one after all," Mu Fan muttered excitedly to himself.

After hardship comes happiness!

I should have known better than to have chosen those two machines.

The rifle on my back? I decided against it. Weapons that can't be auto-aimed and require constant aiming correction with my arm are definitely not suitable for me.

This is nothing like the MG Particle Cannon that can attack over a wide area, such as iron balls and Ossified Stone; if a bullet misses by even 1 centimeter, it's considered a miss.

Shooting while running—I guess only someone like White Hair is good at this kind of combat.

So Mu Fan immediately locked onto the direction that this machine was suitable for him: to make good use of these fists and the rather magical retractable shield!

Mu Fan's eyes locked onto a handle, and he placed his left hand on it, giving it a gentle grip.

Sizzle!

A shield resembling a beast totem suddenly expands outwards, and the area that expands can be adjusted by the pressure applied by hand.

Mu Fan now seemed to quite like the shield. After trying it a few more times, he released his grip and restored the shield to its original shape.

Then there was a button on each side of the handle. Mu Fan gripped it with both hands, straightened the mecha arms, and pressed them down.

Bang, bang!

A burst of white air suddenly shot out from the junction of the two fists and wrists, and then slammed heavily against the opposite wall.

Only then did Mu Fan realize that the battle had already begun!

How do I take it back?

How can I function without hands on both arms?

Fortunately, the system has comprehensive operation prompts. I pressed my thumb against the button and pulled it outwards. The two iron fists embedded in the wall flew back and resumed their mechanical function after two clicks.

These two fists appear to have been specially reinforced.

As for the Rapid-fire Gun behind him, Mu Fan felt that in a real fight, it was far less practical than his two fists.

Alright, now that he's familiarized himself with the process, Mu Fan no longer feels as uncertain as before.

He's full of confidence!

Finally, I saw a mech that I could actually drive.

What kind of random "snow" is this? It comes up without saying a word and wants to beat itself up?

It seems like every Tom, Dick, and Harry has jumped out!

The two matches I lost earlier were definitely due to my unfamiliarity with the mechs.

Mu Fan is absolutely going to crush his opponent now.

Add a glorious first victory to your record!

The City Alleyway Battle map, Mu Fan just browsed the top view. It is about three times the length of the arena, but the horizontal width is relatively narrow, and there are multiple buildings for cover.

Therefore, the appropriate mecha weapons for this situation should be large-caliber close-range firepower weapons, rapid-fire weapons, and various kinds of melee weapons.

The terrain also suits me.

A smile appeared on Mu Fan's face, and he was even more confident about this victory.

On the other side of the road, separated by several buildings, a light-colored Mulan Mecha stood quietly.

As a benchmark among Fifth Generation Mecha, the military's mech can be said to have achieved an ultimate balance between movement and shooting.

Unlike the account I used in the Mecha Club training room, this mecha did not undergo significant optimization like the snow-white Mulan Modified.

Engine performance has returned to normal, and weapon attachments have been restored. However, as a mech with a wide variety of open weapon interfaces, players can select some weapons before piloting it.

Therefore, Lu Qingxue abandoned that iconic sniper rifle and replaced it with a Magnetic Oscillation Sword.

The modified weapon High-Frequency Sword that appeared in the previous Mulan Mod is also unusable; it was a high-level weapon obtained by exchanging a large number of points.

After all, in reality, mechs equipped with high-frequency weapons are all famous mechs.

The Magnetic Oscillation Sword also has the effect of high-frequency vibration, but due to the limitations of the material, it is far from achieving the cutting-edge effect of a true high-frequency weapon.

Its biggest advantage is that it can keep costs very low while ensuring a certain level of power.

The only weapons Lu Qingxue's Mulan Mecha still retains are the hand-mounted Rotary Rocket and the Magnetic Oscillation Sword.

She abandoned all other external firepower.

A martial artist must never lose mobility under any circumstances.

Magnetic Oscillation Sword at her side, the Mulan Mecha began to run through the streets.

On the other side, the mech "Wild Boar" also began its astonishing charge.

This is a city alley map for 1v1 battles. It is a very small map, so both sides' mechs will appear on their respective radars. There is no such thing as stealth attacks. All that is there is technical operation using the mechs and the terrain.

Both of them had a clear goal: to defeat the other!

Mu Fan now moves with ease across the control panel. With an APM of nearly 400 even without activating Dark Breath, the mech's running posture is remarkably natural and fluid, even without the Body Coordination device.

Just like a person running, each step is subtly adjusted according to the terrain, making it incredibly flexible.

This is the rhythm that belongs to me!

The red dot is getting closer and closer. Ahead is a low-rise house. Once they jump over it, the two can start fighting.

The Wild Boar mech took a large stride and stepped onto a nearby wall, then used the power of its engine to leap onto the rooftop.

As soon as the brown aircraft appeared, a barrage of six rockets came flying at it.

This triggered a piercing alarm from the radar that had just been acquiring the signal.

After calmly brushing his hand over the control panel, Mu Fan pushed with his left arm and pressed the button.

The Disordered Folding Step reappears!

The Wild Boar, which had just jumped onto the roof, nimbly dodged, and at the same time, the Super Titanium Alloy Telescopic Shield suddenly opened!
