It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 584 Instantaneous Operation!

"Bang! Bang!" The two shots slammed into the mechas and two loud explosions rang out.

The two mechas flew out due to the force of the explosion. There were lights surrounding their mechas. This light came from their beam s.h.i.+eld. One of the mechas had his beam s.h.i.+eld dimmed while the other had a wound on its right shoulder. Black smoke was coming out of the wound. As the mecha flew out, the black smoke formed an arc in the air.

Ling Lan didn't see any effect after she fired her shot so she moved her gun and aimed it at her other opponents. The last batch of people had ended their lag time.

However, she was still too late. Her opponents had activated their beam s.h.i.+eld and escaped unharmed from her attacks.

"I am still too slow. If I am just a little faster, I might have succeeded." Ling Lan stared at the mecha that escaped her attack coldly. She pouted her lips with regret. Her hand speed was still too slow. She missed the chance that she saw and wasted her shot.

The mecha operator that got hit slammed his operation table in anger. "d.a.m.n, I actually got hit." He felt humiliated to be injured by a n.o.body.

"Jiao Thirteen, this person must have a strong spiritual power. Be careful of their long-range attacks." Their temporary leader, Lin Five, reminded him.

Everyone knew that people with a stronger spiritual power would wake up earlier in the virtual world. The members in the Flying Dragon Special Forces were all-round talents that excelled in both their spiritual power and physical const.i.tution. They would not take in people who were only good in one of them. Hence, it was normal that they would lose out to the mecha operators talented in their spiritual power and would wake up later than them.

Mecha operators that had a strong spiritual power were usually proficient in long-range attacks. This was because they were weaker physically so close-combat was not suitable for them. A strong physique was needed for close-combat as the body needed to withstand the blows dealt on their mechas. Hence, Lin Five reminded Jiao Thirteen to beware of long-range attacks. He was afraid that he would lose his cool and forget about this point. If he got defeated because of this, that would really be a humiliation.

Actually, Lin Five was surprised that Jiao Thirteen didn't manage to dodge the attack too. They were all trained to activate their defense mechanism the moment they woke up so that such situations wouldn't happen. By right, he should be able to dodge it.

Lin Five had no time to think. His opponent had already swung his giant sword towards him.

"Bang!" The two swords collided into each other. The people around them almost lost their balance. Two powerful close combat mecha operators were fighting heads on with each other.

"Jiao Thirteen, you activated your beam s.h.i.+eld too late. Lousy." The mecha operator that managed to block Devil Blade's shot mocked Jiao Thirteen.

Jiao Thirteen was furious when he heard what his teammate said, "Wei Nine, go to h.e.l.l. You are the one that is lousy."

Jiao Thirteen was certain that he activated his beam s.h.i.+eld the moment he woke up. It was even smoother and faster than his training practice. However, he was still hit. He suspected that the mainframe ignored his controls and gave his opponent the chance to attack him.

It was understandable that Jiao Thirteen couldn't understand what went wrong. Ling Lan's shot was instantaneous. The moment the mainframe shut down the protection s.h.i.+eld, Ling Lan fired the shot. Hence, the shot was deemed valid. If she had fired the shot a little faster, it would be an invalid shot and wouldn't have hurt Jiao Thirteen.

Of course, if Jiao Thirteen was able to instantaneously activate his beam s.h.i.+eld, Ling Lan's attack wouldn't have hit him. However, he couldn't do such operations yet so he was injured.

This was why Devil Blade failed. He was slower than Ling Lan so his opponent managed to block his shot. No one had the time to a.n.a.lyze Ling Lan's attack now so they just thought that she was lucky.

Jiao Thirteen couldn't control his mecha's right hand anymore. If this happened to a normal long-range operator, their combat skills would drop exponentially and they wouldn't be able to continue the battle. But, the Flying Dragon Special Forces didn't allow their members to have any weaknesses. Every one of their mecha operators was trained to use both hands to handle their weapons. If the right hand of their mecha was injured, they could still use their left hand.

However, the left-hand attacks would not be as powerful as the right-hand attacks no matter how well they trained both their hands. Jiao Thirteen couldn't display his full ability. How well he managed to use his mecha's left hand depended on how hard he had practiced it.

Jiao Thirteen was furious. He took his beam gun with the mecha's left hand and prepared to shoot Ling Lan. Suddenly, huge energies formed into a whirlwind and attacked him.

Jiao Thirteen got a shock. He instantly jumped more than ten meters away. On the ground where he was standing just now, a deep cut had appeared.

"Whirlwind Strike!" A close-combat mecha rushed towards him with a huge cold weapon in its hand.

"Total Annihilation!" Total Annihilation was a basic attack but the powerful force coming from it gave Jiao Thirteen no chance of retreating. He decisively threw down his beam gun and grabbed his sword. He swung it at the mecha.

"Bang!" Another loud noise echoed throughout the combat arena. The other mechas that were fighting slowed down for a moment.

Ling Lan had been waiting for an opportunity all these while. She quickly pulled her trigger and a light beam shot out of her gun. The sudden light beam shocked her opponent and he immediately maneuvered his mecha to the left.

"Boom!" The light beam still managed to hit Ling Lan's opponent. The beam s.h.i.+eld dimmed a little. Ling Lan's opponent got attacked the moment he woke up so he had to activate his beam s.h.i.+eld to take on the blow forcefully. Now, he was. .h.i.t again. His beam s.h.i.+eld could only handle one more attack. If he didn't change his energy storage unit, he would be in the same situation as Jiao Thirteen.

Jiao Thirteen's opponent was Crazy Warrior. He laughed excitedly as he faced Jiao Thirteen. Ling Lan's attack at the start allowed him to get near this long-range mecha. If not, he might be the one getting chased around by this mecha.

Close-combat operators hated long-range operators the most. If they met a long-range operator on the battlefield, they needed to close the gap between them before they could fight their opponent. However, long-range operators were not stupid either. They would not give these close-combat mechas the chance to get near them.

In this situation, close-combat operators were at a disadvantage. They had to get near their opponents while they were being attacked by long-range attacks. If they met someone as strong as them, it would mean defeat.

Jiao Thirteen started fighting with Crazy Warrior. The other people saw their opponents and started fighting too.

Devil Blade had a hard time handling his opponent. His opponent was a close-combat operator.

"This operator is as strong as Domineering Blade. I wonder what his rank is among the six people." Devil Blade was a little frustrated. If his opponent was not the strongest, their team would be in a dire state.

Devil Blade knew that if he wanted to turn the situation around, he must widen the distance between them. He operated a balanced mecha but his long-range attacks were better than his close-combat skills. Hence, he wanted to find a way to use his long-range attacks.

He fought too safely at the start and allowed his opponent to close in on him. If he had attacked bolder, he would not be in such a difficult position.

Devil Blade exchanged another blow with his opponent. Suddenly, a short-distanced beam gun appeared in his mecha's left hand. A light beam shot out of the beam gun and enveloped his opponent.

This attack forced his opponent to retreat. Devil Blade took the chance to move away from his opponent.

"I will not allow you to run away!" Once Devil Blade moved, his opponent knew what he was planning to do. His opponent struck a Whirlwind Strike at him and rushed towards him.

Devil Blade saw his opponent chasing him. He gritted his teeth and powered his engine to the maximum. He needed to pull the distance away from his opponent even if it meant overburdening his engine. He continuing shooting his opponent with his beam gun and tried to slow down his opponent.

"Comparing speed with me?" Devil Blade's opponent gave a cold smile when he saw what Devil Blade was doing. His mecha was modified to become faster. He accelerated his engine. A loud roar sounded from his mecha and his mecha's speed increased again. He closed in on Devil Blade.

"d.a.m.n, my opponent's mecha has been modified to have a faster speed." Devil Blade was devastated. He was really unlucky today. He failed his sneak attack and met a speed-modified mecha.

Devil Blade was expecting to meet such a mecha since most close-combat mechas would be modified to become faster or stronger. However, he was still affected when he really met the mecha.

At this moment, Ling Lan's voice appeared in the team channel, "Devil Blade, a.s.sist Domineering Blade immediately."

Devil Blade was stunned when he heard this order. How was he supposed to go over? He was in a fight with his opponent and couldn't free himself.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared and struck the mecha that was chasing Devil Blade.

Devil Blade's opponent stopped due to the attack. When he wanted to continue chasing Devil Blade, another light appeared and interrupted his operation.

Devil Blade saw Ling Lan coming to help him. He didn't know if Ling Lan could stop his opponent but he still turned around decisively and went to help Domineering Blade.
