Counterfeit Hero

The entire hall was silent... the visual impact of this scene was simply too intense.

If the Magic Beast’s palm strike is like a dazzling curved blade of quickness, ruthlessness, and soul-stealing power, then War Fire’s kick is like a fierce Battle Axe! With force and momentum, sweeping through thousands of armies!

In a daze, the players only felt like they were facing a scene of thousands of horses galloping, akin to a flood sweeping through, with an unstoppable momentum rushing towards them!

Breaking with force, moving forward without hesitation — no matter how sharp you are, you’re going to stop now!

The Magic Beast withdrew and turned, a misstep underfoot, it had already flashed to the side of War Fire. That right arm which had just been withdrawn shot out like lightning once again. This time, it wasn’t a flashing blade, but a silent long spear, cunning and insidious!

War Fire’s downward kick missed, and following the momentum, its body spun like a windmill, leaning back, and with a sudden kick, it was like a tree bent to its limit, suddenly rebounding, the bent knee crashing towards the right arm of the Magic Beast like a cannonball!

Stop now, I said!

The Magic Beast withdrew again, another footwork misstep, flashing ghostly to the other side of War Fire. Its right hand, for the third time, reached out, this time with an eagle-claw-like grip aiming for War Fire’s waist ribs.

The players were left dumbfounded, this SM01314, able to control its strength so effortlessly! This is a mecha operating at full power, not a human body! Two turns, three attacks, it was as easy for him as playing around! The strength shown at this moment could only mean one thing — all previous clashes, he was just playing around!

Before the players snapped out of their shock, they saw War Fire stagger a bit and suddenly disappear from sight.

Amidst cries of surprise, when War Fire reappeared, it was behind the Magic Beast, launching a ferocious Double Peak Piercing Ears move!

”Small Plate Rotation!” Elder Mu’s voice timely emerged.

Four characters. This single commentary consisted of only four characters. Yet it was as if a thunderclap resounded in the ears of all the players.

The Level 8 Skill Small Plate Rotation, though only described and not included in the mechanical fighting standards widely touched by humans, repeatedly appeared in all mecha magazines, all mecha textbooks — this technique’s name itself is a legend!

No one knows who invented this technique.

Since its birth, it was considered the limit of human control.

The technique is public, with engine power, joint drive coordination, body inertia to footwork steps, all detailed and clear. The manipulative skill gestures have been studied by countless people repeatedly, and if combined, would be a grand masterpiece!

Despite everyone believing this technique is within the limits of human manipulation, despite scientists repeatedly proving its feasibility with scientific means, over these many years, this technique has been like a diamond in the crown of the mecha world. No one has personally touched it!

And now, from Elder Mu’s mouth came these four words!

If it was as before, just the name of the technique it would have been fine. But these four words appeared precisely when War Fire suddenly rotated to the Magic Beast’s back, just when a bolt of lightning seemed to flash through everyone’s minds!

As if to match Elder Mu’s explanation.

On the big screen in the combat hall, a slow-motion replay of War Fire’s maneuver instantly appeared.

Elder Mu, holding an electronic pen, fixed the frames while sketching on the screen.

His hand was trembling, the lines he drew were less sophisticated than those of a grade schooler. Yet, no one blamed him. Everyone just stood dumbfounded, blank, and mesmerized, waiting for him to complete his sketched lines on the screen.

The combat hall was silent as a grave.

Fatty and the little kid fought more and more wildly.

This Double Peak Piercing Ears move naturally couldn’t hurt the little kid. The Magic Beast made a rapid advance to escape War Fire’s attack. Both sides simultaneously advanced again, engaging once more in brutal combat.

Fatty was gasping for breath. The hand speed required for extreme operation had already caused his fingers to begin to hurt.

He knew that although it looked evenly matched on the surface, in reality, he was gradually falling behind. The little kid was after all an Artificial Intelligence, like a Heavenly God in this network, where any mortal could only bow to its feet.

The flawless techniques of Pipi, like a towering mountain, blocked his path. No matter how fast his hand speed increased, no matter how deeply he understood Mecha Martial Arts, he couldn’t break through this barrier. At this moment, he was like the monkey suppressed under the Five-finger Mountain!

But this time, Fatty didn’t believe this nonsense! Even if he lost, he wanted a good fight!

This pent-up frustration had lasted too long!

Everyone could bully me, even you, the little bastard, a dog could dare to bully me!

Under the Magic Beast’s stormy attacks, War Fire was retaliating sharply. The two Mechas were so fast they were almost impossible to see, only a black and silver shadow twisting and flying in the air.

The Magic Beast punched War Fire’s back, and War Fire responded with a kick to the Magic Beast’s leg. Both sides staggered, straightened up, and clashed fiercely once more.

A minute passed, two minutes passed......

Elder Mu’s drawing was complete. The continuously replayed scene in all the players’ eyes was more precious than any antique treasure.

They watched devoutly. The lines of footwork and body posture outlined by War Fire’s moves on the screen, like a textbook — the pearl on the crown of the Mechanical Kingdom, finally, was touched by humanity!

At this moment, any language to express feelings seemed so hollow.

A National Reserve Soldier, absent-mindedly, voiced the sentiment of all.

”Blessed thrice in a lifetime!”

This phrase echoed in everyone’s ears, again and again.

One hundred moves, two hundred moves, three hundred moves......

No one knew how many rounds SM01314 and Master Fatty had exchanged.

Damn it! He surpassed it, and so much more. The little kid looked dejectedly at the statistics that had exceeded a thousand, abruptly stopped and changed direction, then counterattacked with a Groin Kick. The last fierce move to end it!

Playing this with me?

A triggered Fatty erupted directly. His hand speed, at this moment, was beyond comprehension.

Everyone only saw that War Fire, gradually falling behind but still unyielding in battle, suddenly went berserk. It flashed swiftly through the Magic Beast’s attack, moved in close, then unleashed an unbearable Combination Punch......

Double Dragons Exploring Pearls striking like thunder and wind, Sea-Skimming Moon Snatching like lightning cutting through the void, Monkey Stealing Peach like a meteor chasing the moon, Child Bowing to Guanyin like a rainbow across the sun, Old Man Pushing a Cart like.....

”Boom!”

A loud noise erupted, and sand and dust filled the air.

Time became entirely still. This sound, like an explosion anticipated for a hundred years, echoed in everyone’s ears.

”Won!”
