back to Earth

The strong wind howled, sweeping the yellow sand all over the sky.

The distance that can be seen clearly is less than [-] meters, not only is the sky full of wind and sand, but even the color of the sky is dim yellow.

This scene reminded Cheng Zhen of the famous sandstorm in a certain city in his previous life, which was also the severe weather that gave him a headache at the beginning.But compared to the overwhelming wind and sand in front of us, those previous sandstorms are nothing.

He is now driving the latest interstellar mass-produced aircraft, the Acrimony III, and is struggling through this storm.

This is a combat mecha equipped by Interstellar for the front-line combat troops. It is very popular among the front-line troops, and is famous for its flexibility and high performance.The sharper series of mechas are much better than the ordinary mechas used in the academy and the mechas used in the Battle of Klein.However, it is still a mass-produced machine after all, not comparable to the special mecha specially equipped for elite troops.

For example, Rhine's black mecha, and the shadow team's mecha, are much better than the sharper series.And excellent mechas also bring more outstanding strength to these elites. Sometimes the combination of an excellent mecha and an excellent driver is not as simple as one plus one equals two.

However, this time Rhine did not drive his own exclusive mecha, but used the same Acer series as Cheng Zhen - Acer One.Compared with the combination of far and near combat of the No. [-] unit, the No. [-] unit is more conducive to close combat.This is for the justice of the battle, and it is also to shorten the gap between Cheng Zhen and him.

Pursing his lips tightly, Cheng Zhen carefully drove the mecha away from the Storm Fortress.Driving the mecha in an unimaginable violent storm was more difficult than he expected.Now just to master the balance of the mech in the storm, he will consume a lot of energy.

Damn, it's still too simple!Cheng Zhen clicked his tongue.

He thought that even if he couldn't compete with Rhine in this battle, at least he would have some power to protect himself.But judging from the current situation, let alone a duel, it would not be easy for him to perform at half of his usual level in the storm.

You must know that you were fighting in the universe before, let alone a storm, there was no resistance at all!From a vacuum environment to a planetary environment, this transition cannot be accommodated in a short time!

The current situation is more severe than imagined.

Cheng Zhen clenched his lips, he could already judge that today's battle might be an absolutely overwhelming one.At Rhine's level, defeating himself under such an advantage is almost a matter of minutes.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel frustrated and incomprehensible.Rhine should have expected this situation, but His Excellency the United Front Commander still chose to fight himself.What is he for?Is this overwhelming victory necessary for the current Rhine?

"Get ready." Just as he was thinking about it, the voice that was no longer unfamiliar sounded on the communication channel.

"The official start will take place in 1 minute."

After speaking, the communication has been cut off.

At this time, the few of them had already driven the mecha to an area far away from the fortress. Except for Rhine and Cheng Zhen who were fighting, the rest of the shadow team were watching.It not only acts as a referee, but also acts as a guard in case of accidents.

After hearing Rhine's reminder, Cheng Zhen's heart sank.The thumping heartbeat almost burst out of his eardrums!

what to do!How should I fight in such an absolute disadvantaged battle!

After realizing the gap between each other, Cheng Zhen gradually became unable to keep calm.For a long time, although he did not say that he was sure to win every game, he had not experienced a real failure.Even the time when Rhine captured Klein in the Battle of Klein could not be said to be a complete defeat.

It can be said that Cheng Zhen has never experienced being defeated in the true sense.Cheng Zhen is a fighter who has never tasted failure, and this is undoubtedly his biggest shortcoming.

How can a fighter who has not experienced failure be regarded as an outstanding fighter.

Feeling that the hands controlling the mecha were sweating slightly, Cheng Zhen felt that his concept of time had already produced some illusions. 1 minute, how long is 1 minute?Has it passed?

Could it be that Rhine will emerge from any corner of the storm to attack in the next moment.

It seemed that even his breathing became short of breath, Cheng Zhen concentrated all his energy and paid attention to the dynamics around him.

Sandstorm, sandstorm, still sandstorm.In an environment with extremely low visibility, nothing can be seen except the wind and sand all over the sky.Cheng Zhen couldn't help being anxious, but he had no choice but to step up his defenses.

Needless to say Rhine, even those shadow players who were on guard in secret, he couldn't detect where they were.For a moment, it seems that there is only one person left in the world, as if caught in a predicament isolated from the world!

However, at that moment, there seemed to be a bright light flashing past in the dim yellow sky!

In just a split second, the attack came so sharply!That silver glow piercing through the wind and sand came with a biting murderous aura!

With precise calculations, he specially grasped the attack at Cheng Zhen's most tense moment. Even if Cheng Zhen had been prepared for this attack, he could not react at all.

Extremely fast, extremely accurate, a shot without any hesitation!

When the silver gun drew out from the storm and struck at him with a sharp edge.Cheng Zhen was almost unable to prepare for defense, but barely moved his body to dodge under the excellent reflexes.

But the other party seemed to have expected it, the silver gun turned the gun nimbly, spun in the air at high speed, and attacked without stopping another gap formed by Cheng Zhen's hasty dodge.

Everything is only in an instant, even in an extremely short time of less than a second!

The opponent's judgment on form and attack is so keen without mistakes.When Cheng Zhen realized it, the sharp tip of the spear was touching his cockpit.

"You lost." Rhine's voice came out without emotion.

A one-hit kill, a lore without any suspense.The shock and undisguised murderous aura brought about by such absolute strength was undoubtedly felt most clearly by the person closest to him.

Cheng Zhen's face was pale, not sure whether it was because of defeat or fear.

He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't make a sound.For the first time, there was a look of hesitation in the black and resolute eyes.Since entering Clems College, although there were many setbacks along the way, it was indeed the first time that he was defeated without any resistance.Whether it is for confidence or self-esteem, it is a huge blow.

Rhine retracted the spear, and the Elekla spear spun sharply in the air.

"Go back." He only said these two words, and he had already driven the mecha far away.

Seeing the figure gradually disappearing in the wind and sand, Cheng Zhen also gritted his teeth, and then drove the mech back to the fortress.

By the time he returned to the fortress, everyone in the shadows had already returned.They looked at Cheng Zhen and didn't speak for a while.Maybe it's because they know that no matter what words they say at this time, they can't really reach Cheng Zhenxin.

Cheng Zhen breathed a sigh of relief as there was no consolation or imaginary persuasion.At this time, he didn't have the heart to face anyone, he just wanted to go back to the dormitory immediately and bury himself.It was just a battle of less than 10 minutes, which made him really...

"Disappointed." The usual cold voice came from behind. "I never thought that you would disappoint me so much."

Rhine stepped off the mecha and was walking over step by step.

That more threatening and menacing aura than usual made Cheng Zhen want to take a few steps back.However, he finally restrained the retreat in his heart, stood where he was, and waited quietly for Rhine to walk in step by step.

His Excellency the United Front Commander walked to Cheng Zhen's side and looked at the black-haired boy.

"Even in an unfamiliar environment, you are defeated so easily. Now you are not as good as the most ordinary pilot in the interstellar world."

Cheng Zhenxin's heart tightened, but he couldn't refute it, full of bitterness.

"What disappoints me even more is that when facing a crisis, you only know how to retreat." Rhine said.

"What can defense bring you? Victory? No, at most it can only delay your death. The more you face a powerful opponent on the battlefield, the more you want to attack. I didn't expect that you can't even do this arrive."

The stern words resounded in Cheng Zhen's ears like thunder, and he couldn't understand the reason of Rhine's words.But for some reason, at the moment of the battle, he didn't have the intention to take the initiative to attack, just like a clown who is greedy for life and afraid of death, he only thinks about defense.

for what?Cheng Zhen knew it because he was afraid of failure.

He was afraid of being easily defeated by Rhine in this battle, so he didn't dare to take it lightly.The more afraid you are, the more you shrink back, the more you shrink back, the more afraid you are!

This kind of self is what Cheng Zhen is most disappointed with.

I don't know when it started, but he actually took his own victory and defeat so seriously, he even forgot the reason why he wanted to become a mecha pilot in the first place!Cheng Zhen, who did not back down and faced Leiber in the academy that day, has already drifted away!

Cheng Zhen, who wanted to contribute to the revival of mankind and vowed to find the earth back then, has drifted away!

Just when he was about to fall into deep self-loathing, Rhine's words still rang in Cheng Zhen's ears.

He said. "Continue tomorrow, don't let me down again."

Cheng Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and looked up at Rhine Mudi.

And His Excellency the United Front Work Commander had already turned around to leave, and the harsh criticism just now seemed to have dissipated into the air with his departure.

Rhine said, continue tomorrow.After expressing his disappointment with Cheng Zhen, he still chose to continue training.

Looking at the tall and broad back, Cheng Zhen stood there in a daze.His heart was full of inexplicable emotions, as if he was relieved, and as if he had been redeemed.

Even though he was so disappointed, he still did not give up on himself—Rhein Bertutane.

The hands placed beside him were clenched quietly, Cheng Zhen pursed the corners of his lips, secretly making up his mind.

Not only for himself, not only for the original vow, but for not giving up, he has to change himself again!
