"Hmm, close combat."
Click, click, a series of sounds, and all of Ren Zhong’s gear shut down again.
Shi Xuan let out a small sigh of relief, cursing in his heart.
Damn it, a Third Level exoskeleton!
Whose Third Level exoskeleton is stocked with Fourth and Fifth Level ammunition, including the emperor of Fifth Level ammo—a fusion bomb.
What do you want to do?
Blow up a mountain?
Young man, you have no martial ethics!
Wearing a set of Third Level equipment, yet it’s filled with pay-to-win lethal gear inside.
If I had this gear, I could kill Lin Wang too.
Had I not changed my tune quickly, I’d have been in deep trouble today.
After some delay, the pinnacle duel between the two finally commenced today.
Shi Xuan tapped the water with his toes, causing waves to explode upward.
The flames bursting from the medium engine on his back created a giant wolf on the water surface behind him.
Ren Zhong only glimpsed a flash of red light, indicating danger on the side of his holographic vision, with alarms blaring. He didn’t even have time to check the specific energy index before a massive shock hit the right side of his armor.
He was knocked sideways on the spot and thrown into the air.
As Ren Zhong had previously guessed, Shi Xuan was a rare full-attack type Mechanical Warrior.
His gear was reduced in weight to the extreme, making his movements astonishingly fast.
The force Shi Xuan unleashed with his attack was akin to Ren Zhong’s sparring encounters with a Fifth Level Armored Soldier being played by a faceless person in the VIP training zone at Zhan Sha County.
Here, Ren Zhong, still spinning through the air, had not yet steadied himself when Shi Xuan reappeared from the flank.
Ren Zhong activated Sixth Sense and casually blocked to the side with his Flame-cutting Giant Blade.
Another massive shock wave struck. He was knocked aside again.
However, Ren Zhong’s Flame-cutting Giant Blade left a stream of plasma flame at its original position, which conveniently blocked Shi Xuan’s pursuit path.
Seizing this opportunity, Ren Zhong finally steadied himself, twisting his body upright.
The Flame-cutting Giant Blade emitted a glowing stream as it swung a red crescent forward from behind.
The four high-powered medium engines on his back roared, spewing out columns of flame.
He turned into a streak of light charging forward fiercely, heading exactly toward where he had left the plasma flame.
Shi Xuan was there.
Swish!
Ren Zhong’s blade cut decisively through Shi Xuan’s body.
But it passed through empty air.
It turned out the figure was a holographic projection.
A fingernail-sized disposable projector floated along the water surface with the waves.
Ren Zhong missed his target and was unable to stop his momentum, continuing straight ahead.
Shi Xuan pounced again from the side.
Ren Zhong only heard explosive sounds of water everywhere.
His auditory resonance couldn’t track the sound positions at all.
No wonder he was an old hand at the Fourth Level, truly skilled.
However, Ren Zhong still had the Sixth Sense forged by Five Senses Resonance.
He didn’t even turn around but casually swung the Flame-cutting Giant Blade horizontally behind him.
He heard Shi Xuan exclaim in surprise.
Then came a clattering sound.
Ren Zhong’s forward momentum suddenly became much faster.
He took the opportunity to turn around, with the rear engine smoothly outputting.
He carved a long trench on the water but managed to stop successfully before crashing into the mountain wall.
At this moment, he finally got a good look at Shi Xuan’s weapon—two arm blades a foot long each.
The short blades didn’t look big, but who knew what material they were made of, managing to withstand such collisions.
Ren Zhong slowly raised his blade over his head and said, "Earlier, Mr. Shi caught me off guard, and I was at a disadvantage. Let’s go again! It won’t happen this time."
Shi Xuan suddenly waved his hand, "I give up!"
"Why?"
