Free Web NovelChapter 1402: Chapter 1402: Detonation
Shen Sheng had just dodged the mecha’s crushing force and, with the help of the rope’s inertia, wanted to climb onto the mecha’s big head again when suddenly a rope flew out from the cabin.
Swish~
With great force and speed, Shen Sheng, who had no pivot in mid-air, was firmly tied up by the rope.
Shen Sheng furrowed her brows, and the next second, she drew the dagger strapped to her waist.
Slash, slash!
But!
Her movements weren’t as fast as Ji You’s. Just as the dagger’s blade pierced the rope, Ji You gave a hard yank, pulling both Shen Sheng and the rope to her!
Ji You’s pitch-black shining eyes quietly watched the slightly embarrassed Shen Sheng, curled her lips, and laughed: "Didn’t you want to stick to me? Then don’t run far."
"..." Shen Sheng opened her mouth, suddenly saying: "Ji You, you’re so naughty!"
The two stared at each other through the transparent window of the cabin.
Then.
"Thank you for pulling me earlier. Shen Sheng suddenly showed a mischievous smile: "But I’m also very naughty!"
Ji You’s binding played right into Shen Sheng’s hands.
The next second, Shen Sheng, hanging on the mecha’s wall, suddenly raised her fist and smashed it hard!
Boom—
In an instant, the entire mecha trembled violently, bang—
The mecha’s transparent window shattered into several pieces!
Audience: "!!!"
Someone opened their mouth wide, clutching their chest, letting out a soul-stirring exclamation:
"Excuse me, what breed of beast is this? Broke the mecha’s explosion-proof glass with bare hands! This is military-grade explosion-proof glass! Can withstand ordinary particle cannon fire! My god!!!"
Unable to identify the breed, Shen "Beast" Sheng, exploiting the fracture, leapt down.
Entering the mecha cabin, Shen Sheng acted swiftly, pouncing directly at Ji You!
However, she missed.
At the same time, Ji You suddenly drew a giant big chopper!
Shen Sheng seemed to have anticipated this. After the failed raid, she wasted no time, instantly retrieving her longsword from the space button!
The blade glimmered coldly.
The sword appeared simple and black, yet its gleam was even colder than the chopper.
The next second, the two raised their weapons at each other.
At that moment, all the audience’s hearts leapt into their throats!
These two, after exchanging blow after blow in the arena, even if no victor was declared, their prowess was indisputable.
No one dared say they were weak?
No one did.
Under such experts, countless spectators couldn’t help but ask themselves—could they dodge a few moves?
One?
Two?
Or?
At this moment, Ji You and Shen Sheng held their weapons, faces tense, stepping forward with sharp blades and sword tips towards each other.
The students watching, all serious and tense, stared closely at the arena.
The mecha cabin was narrow, and in a flash, they were at each other’s fronts, neither hesitated, cold weapons striking at each other’s most vulnerable lethal points!
The audience instantly clenched their fists!
Bang!
Only to hear a loud bang, at that moment, many spectators couldn’t help but close their eyes.
Was Ji You’s blade sharper?
Or was Shen Sheng’s sword quicker?
Bang!
Bang, bang, bang!
Hmm?!
!!!
Some couldn’t resist but peeked, finding the two standing perfectly fine.
"???!"
"They didn’t strike each other, they struck the mecha!" An always attentive student explained.
"Huh?"
"Strike the mecha?!!"
"What did the antique mech do wrong? Why strike the mecha?"
"Does that even need asking?"
No answers were needed, everyone immediately grasped the reason for their actions.
Ji You’s mecha had already been destroyed by her.
The current one they occupied, although its shell was damaged by Shen Sheng, its energy and control systems were still intact, temporarily usable!
Whoever grabs the mecha holds the big weapon!
The scale of victory will tilt towards her!
So—
Both decided to destroy the mecha!
They didn’t even consult, yet simultaneously decided this!
Next, only the sound of clanging echoed, and the once somewhat intact mecha cabin was wrecked beyond recognition by the two.
Everyone: "..."
"The antique mech also has dignity."
"The antique mech also needs human warmth."
"Warmth aside, once out of the arena, it goes straight to the recycling station."
"Indeed, entering the recycling station, smelting anew might be okay, but more likely it’s dissected into countless parts, possibly used as toilet panels."
"Front row seat, you’re toxic."
...
As the observing students bantered to ease tension, the battle in the arena didn’t simmer but intensified.
After chopping up the mecha cabin, Ji You and Shen Sheng continued to slash at each other, blades flashing, sparks flying!
Pressing forward, neither retreating.
Both were wounded.
Suddenly, Shen Sheng raised her sword, slashing horizontally at Ji You. This sword was overwhelming, directly targeting Ji You’s heart.
Whoosh~
Fast as lightning!
The sword tip reached in an instant!
Can’t block it.
Realizing this, Ji You’s face darkened and she raised her blade to block, crack—
A faint crisp sound.
Her wrist dislocated.
Forcing herself to block the strike, Ji You’s wrist hung limp, but she couldn’t pause because Shen Sheng’s sword instantly aimed at Ji You’s throat!
In critical peril, Ji You decisively discarded the big chopper, lunging towards the ground.
She rolled to the ground, dodging Shen Sheng’s sword, but its tip grazed her cheek, causing blood to flow instantly.
Tap~
Tap~
Tap~
Blood dripped down her cheek, dotting the mecha cabin floor, Ji You ignored it, lifting her dislocated wrist, violently jerked it. Everyone heard a crack as the dislocated joint was forcibly realigned!
Shen Sheng already had her sword ready, perilously close!
The spot Ji You chose to land was the mecha energy system control valve.
Various spare parts lay scattered, shattered, the scene chaotic.
Shen Sheng was very alert, she wasn’t completely reassured simply because the energy control system was wrecked.
Anything was possible.
Thinking of this, Shen Sheng suddenly met Ji You’s blood-stained eyes, startled!
Bad!
At that moment, Shen Sheng decisively abandoned her best chance to kill Ji You and fled without hesitation.
As she jumped out of the mecha cabin, she heard a violent explosion behind her.
At that moment, a heat wave swept her, Shen Sheng felt severe pain in her back, unable to resist the blast’s shockwave.
Shen Sheng had used the greatest speed, yet still couldn’t escape!
Will die!
Thinking this, Shen Sheng surprisingly felt no fear, just a bit regret.
But!
Shen Sheng suddenly felt something odd on her thigh, looked down to meet Ji You’s shiny, bright eyes.
Shen Sheng: "!!!"
