Silicon Invasion

"I am this unit's auxiliary intelligence, competition-dedicated number 002. You can interact with me using the number 2, or define a custom name."

"Custom define number 8."

"Modification complete. Hello, from now on, Number 8 will fight alongside you. Please select a combat mech."

"Swift Rainbow…"

To maintain its high mobility, the Farfire mech shaves off as much reactive armor as possible. The thin super-plastic shields barely offer any protection from wind and sand.

This is quite similar to the Swift Rainbow, an assassin-type mech. However, the difference lies in the fact that the Swift Rainbow is truly lightweight, while the Farfire mech still needs to carry weapon systems.

Things like rocket launchers, missile launchers, recoilless rifles, and howitzers, no matter which one, are all heavy. Add to that the accompanying ammunition, and it becomes a significant burden.

Therefore, in terms of mobility, mechs like the Swift Rainbow are stronger than the Farfire mech.

If the Swift Rainbow gets close, the Farfire mech can easily fall into a passive position.

However, it cannot be said that the Farfire mech is completely countered, because the prerequisite for the Swift Rainbow to gain an advantage is to get close. And for a glass cannon to approach a turret built with modern technology unscathed, even if it is a bit faster and more agile, is not an easy task.

Although Luo Rui had practiced with the Swift Rainbow several times in his mind, he had never actually operated it in the game. Therefore, even though he could use the competition's virtual account to play online, he did not seek excitement, but chose the most basic beginner tutorial mode.

The Swift Rainbow, with a bright red paint job, strode out of the safe zone, extremely flamboyant. This is only in the game; in reality, such a flashy paint job would be like an assassin wearing a bright red coat.

Following the tutorial prompts, he familiarized himself with the Swift Rainbow's controls. The virtual cockpit was somewhat narrow, after all, the mech was only 7.1 meters tall, and the cockpit had to be narrowed as much as possible for coordination.

Luo Rui wondered if he could really squeeze into the Swift Rainbow's cockpit in reality. Fortunately, the feeling of tightness in the game was only a projection, and in reality, once you got used to it, you wouldn't be affected.

Although he was mentally prepared, the moment he started, Luo Rui deeply felt the difference of the Swift Rainbow mech.

It's like an SUV and a sports car. Although both use a steering wheel and accelerator, if you use the force of stepping on an SUV's accelerator to step on a sports car's accelerator, it definitely won't work.

The driver must adapt to the new clutch and accelerator system.

Luo Rui was now in this process.

There was no major difficulty in this stage; it was just a matter of spending time to increase proficiency, but what Luo Rui lacked most was time.

Although the total time he spent practicing Warrior 7 wasn't long, after each battle, Luo Rui had a long time to constantly review the battle and find his shortcomings.

But now, Luo Rui could only find these things through constant operation.

Fortunately, it was just doing some basic movements, and the burden on the body was not great, so Luo Rui could still handle it.

Immersed in practice, time passed quickly, until a call from the outside interrupted this state.

"Brother Luo, the competition is about to start."

Uncle Niu's voice came from outside the game pod.

When Luo Rui came out, the area within the cordon was already full of people, and there were even many standing outside. He was not used to this feeling of being the center of attention. After greeting Uncle Niu, he slipped back to the backstage.

"How is it?"

Perhaps to ease the relationship between the two parties, seeing Luo Rui return, the green-haired Feng Weiwei took the initiative to greet him.

For people with Luo Rui's personality, first impressions are too important to them. Once you are labeled with something for the first time, it is quite difficult to change it.

In Luo Rui's eyes, the Feng sisters are troubles. To put it mildly, they are just difficult, but to put it bluntly, who knows what they will say.

Luo Rui was not good at handling this kind of interpersonal relationship, so he chose the most direct method, which was to disconnect the communication channel. Typically, 'I can't afford to provoke you, but I can avoid you'.

Out of politeness, he nodded to the other party, but Luo Rui himself didn't know what he wanted to express. After that, he hid to the side alone and reviewed his practice just now.

"You!"

Just because you're handsome, you think you're all that!

Feng Yaoyao, who was watching Luo Rui's arrogant appearance from the side, felt a nameless fire rise up. She was about to open her mouth to spray, but was grabbed by her sister next to her. Feng Weiwei also had her own self-esteem. Since the other person was ignoring her, there was no need to offer a warm face to a cold reception.

There were also several other members of the Starry Sky Team around, but now that one side was rejecting people, and the other side was holding back their anger and wanting to vent, everyone looked at each other and smartly lowered their heads to swipe their phones.

Time passed quickly, and the fourth match between the Allure Internet Cafe Team and the Starry Sky E-sports Hall Team kicked off amidst everyone's expectations.

The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

The Allure Internet Cafe sent out a guy with the ID Over-Reliance, while the Starry Sky E-sports Hall side sent out Uncle Niu himself.

Originally, Uncle Niu, as the captain, should have been the finale, but unfortunately, Feng Weiwei's match, which they had expected to win, was sniped by a mysterious newcomer.

In this way, in order to play all five games and complete the mall's task, even if Luo Rui didn't need time to practice, Uncle Niu had to go first in this game and win a point.

The Starry Sky E-sports team members looked a little nervous. Over-Reliance was the strongest of the remaining three in the data. According to past performance and record, he was only slightly inferior to Uncle Niu, and there was no certainty of winning.

According to the plan, they should have used an inferior horse to give him a point, but now, they could only let Uncle Niu go up and face him head-on. Once Uncle Niu failed, it would be a very big blow to the team as a whole. The sponsors would lose confidence in the team's ability to dominate the competition, and subsequent cooperation would inevitably decrease accordingly.

Although Luo Rui was just a foreign aid and didn't have this kind of pressure, he still hoped that Uncle Niu could win. After all, if he lost, he would only get a few dozen minutes of free game time, but if he won, he would have the opportunity to get three hours of it.

The Starry Sky E-sports data was quite accurate. Over-Reliance chose the Bluebird mech, while Uncle Niu chose Thor. As Luo Rui expected, it was a duel between two Farfire mechs.

Bluebird and Thor are gold coin mechs in the "Ace Pilot" game. Although there are reference prototypes in reality, some data has been modified too much, and it is no longer meaningful.

Bluebird, height 7.5 meters, 30mm super-plastic deck, unladen mass 20 tons.

Thor, height 7 meters, super-plastic deck, unladen mass 23 tons.

The data of the two is very close, but Thor has a higher mass, and the mech's bone armor is also wider, which makes Thor perform better in terms of the types and number of weapons it can carry than Bluebird.

Correspondingly, Thor's mobility is worse.

Both sides have their own characteristics, and the pilots are also well-known players, so a needle-to-needle battle made the audience full of expectations.
