CH 132

Cheng Yi immediately abandoned the area that was perfect for hiding his tracks and found a large flat open space. He then used his laser sword to write four huge words on the open ground.

[Come and hit me].

These four words seemed very simple and brutal, with a clear meaning, but they came off as very complicated in the context of this match.

Viewer 1: Well...what should I say now? I can only say that the behavior of the two bosses is really different from ordinary people.

Viewer 2: Seriously, this is the first time I’ve seen someone actively begging for a fight in a competition.   (・o・)

Viewer 3: The key thing is that it’s not a ploy. He’s really begging for a fight, and that’s scary.

Viewer 4: All the actions of the two bosses are beyond my expectations, and I don’t know which expression to put on. I have to say that I’m curious about the effects of the Spiritual Defence Potion.

Viewer 5: I just want to know how the other contestants will react when they see these four words……

Viewer 6: Big boss: Come and hit me.

Other contestants: No, it’s a trap! I’m not going to fall for it!

Viewer 7: I suddenly feel sorry for the other contestants. 

……

In fact, as the viewers in the live room suspected, the last reaction that the other contestants had on seeing the three big words was to become increasingly wary.

This was a competition where one’s s mecha would be knocked out if it was attacked three times. So, how could someone blatantly beg for a fight? There must be a conspiracy!

With this in mind, no one dared to attack, even though the terrain around them was flat and the mecha stood motionless and seemingly non-threatening.

They would even go around a little further to avoid confronting this strange-looking mecha and ensure their safety.

So An Yan could only watch as mecha after mecha passed by, but none of them came to attack them. When another mech passed by, An Yan finally couldn’t help but sigh: "Are our words not obvious enough? Why aren’t they coming and hitting us? "

"I guess they’re worried that we’ve set up some kind of trap nearby," Cheng Yi rubbed his nose with an odd expression, then said, "It’s better to erase those three words."

An Yan: "Alright."

Cheng Yi controlled the mecha a few times, and the writing on the ground was erased. At that moment, the viewers in the live broadcast room had already gone crazy.

Viewer 1: It’s the first time I’ve seen someone sincerely begging for a fight, but they instead drive their opponents away, hahaha ……

Viewer 2: The two big bosses' actions have given me a brand new combat strategy. It turns out that by taking the initiative to beg for a fight, you can effectively avoid the attack.

Viewer 3: Am I the only one who noticed the flash of embarrassment on boss Cheng Yi’s face? I’m sure he didn’t expect things to go this way either……

Viewer 4: I think the contestants who avoided them were quite lucky.  Otherwise, they would have been eliminated from the competition for running out of spiritual energy. 

Viewer 5: Someone should come and fight the big bosses. I really want to know the effect of that spiritual defense potion!

………

As soon as this comment came out, someone immediately fulfilled this request.

The situation immediately took a huge turn after erasing the words on the ground. After all, a motionless mecha standing in a clearing looked silly and easy to bully.

So when a mecha passed by, it quickly locked on to this target and quickly launched a trio of attacks.

And during his attack, the mecha in the clearing stood there stupidly, neither running away nor fighting back. It looked like the mecha warrior inside had fallen asleep.

The contestant was satisfied with the situation before him. He didn’t expect his luck to be so good as to come across such a dumb mecha warrior.

But no sooner had he finished lamenting his good fortune than he noticed the anomaly. He had launched three attacks, the dumb mecha was still standing still and had not been eliminated from the competition.

What was going on?

The attacked mecha would have been eliminated immediately and teleported off the map after three attacks.

The contestant cautiously circled the mecha in the clearing. He gave it another, and added another series of attacks to the mecha.

Yet the situation remained unchanged. The mecha just stood there motionless, still not eliminated from the competition.

Was there a bug in the competition?

But it shouldn’t be. This was the Academy Mecha Competition. It would be too amazing for such a low-level bug to appear in such a competition.

But whether there was a bug or not, it was obvious that he should not continue to tangle with this mecha. Otherwise, he’d probably lose more than he gained.

But even though he was rational, he felt reluctant to leave. He had already attacked four times and had yet to receive the one point he deserved.

With this in mind, the contestant hesitated for a moment and then added another series of attacks to the mecha, but the result was the same as before.

This time, he dared not continue to dwell on the matter, even though he was reluctant and could only leave with regret.

In the mecha, An Yan was excitedly crossing his fingers, saying, "He just launched a total of five attacks, but the condition of the mech is still at 100%.  It seems that the spiritual defense potion was useful."

An Yan was quite nervous when the other party first launched his attacks. He was worried that the potion would not work and their mecha would get damaged.

But it seemed that the situation was not bad. At least their mecha had withstood five attacks.

Ab Yan, who had just been looking nervous and worried, was now showing a full smile. Cheng Yi smiled lightly and said, "This is just the beginning."

Cheng Yi looked more confident and prepared than An Yan, who had made the Spiritual Defence. Whenever An Yan was not confident in the potion he had created, it was Cheng Yi who gave him enough confidence.

An Yan was touched and the smile on his face grew wider, "Mmm!"

The previous situation happened a second and third time... everyone tentatively attacked a few more times and could only leave with regret after realizing that their attacks did not work.

The situation finally changed a little when the seventh mech appeared. The mecha warrior failed to control his emotions and, in his excitement, exhausted his spiritual power and was teleported out of the competition map.

The contestant who initiated the attack was teleported out with a dumbfounded look and the barrage in the live stream became dense once more.

Viewer 1: Sympathy for the contestant who sent himself out of the competition. I guess he was stunned at the moment he was eliminated.

Viewer 2: I’m not going to lie. I’ve been looking forward to that kind of scene for a long time.

Viewer 3: So without doing anything, the two big bosses are now 6 points up.

Viewer 4: I’ve got a new tactic after this. As long as one’s defense is strong enough, they can still eliminate the opponent without any problems just by standing there.

Viewer 5: I don't know why I am enjoying this, yet the player who was eliminated was quite pitiful.

Viewer 6: Am I the only one who is keeping an eye on the number of attacks the big bosses’ mecha has got and how much damage has been inflicted?

The answer was, of course, no. Whether other viewers were paying attention to these two points or not, at least An Yan was keeping an eye on them.

At the end of the attack, An Yan summarized the data, "We have been attacked a total of 53 times, and the damage to the mecha is still 0."

Cheng Yi nodded calmly. This was just 53 attacks. This was just the beginning.

This number steadily increased for the rest of the match, along with the number of participants passing through the area. By the time only five minutes of the match were left, the number of attacks on their mecha had reached 528, while the damage to their mecha was still at 0.

At first, the viewers in the live broadcast room were shocked as they watched the number rise, but they almost became numb as time went on.

They were now thinking that the damage would not increase no matter how many times the mecha was attacked, until another mecha appeared just before the end of the match.

This one was so aggressive that it didn’t even look at its surroundings before it attacked. The crowd didn’t care at first, but they slowly got their heads up after it had attacked 140 times in just two minutes.

Viewer 1: Holy shit! 140 attacks in two minutes. That’s too fast, isn’t it?

Viewer 2: It’s not the speed, it’s the number of attacks! Although the initial spiritual power of the contestants is not set high, and a third of the initial mental power seems very little, this is a full 140 times! The spiritual power potion this person took is too unbelievable!

Viewer 3: I’m shocked too. But what’s more shocking is that after being attacked 140 times in one go, the damage to the mecha is still 0. I wonder if the mecha’s detectors are broken!

Viewer 4: The strength of the big boss is beyond our imagination.

Viewer 5: You could have been more direct upstairs; we are just limited by our own imagination.

An Yan’s eyes had also widened in surprise, "This guy is so powerful. He’s already attacked 145 times. "

Cheng Yi was unimpressed and was even a little jealous, "Based on the amount of spiritual power consumed by each attack during the match, the spiritual defense potion made by Yan Yan can support at least two thousand attacks."

An Yan Yan was somewhat dumbfounded, "Really … that many times?"

Although he had produced advanced spiritual power potions, he didn’t know much about mecha sparring. So he was a bit stunned by this number.

Cheng Yi nodded, "Of course, the estimated figure is even an underestimate of the potion’s effects."

Moreover, although the contestant in front of him could perform a large number of attacks, his defense was not as strong as theirs. It was obvious who would win and who would lose if they fought.

"Besides, excluding the effects brought by the spiritual power potion, the mecha warrior’s piloting ability is also important," Cheng Yi, who was still a little jealous, couldn’t help but boast about himself, "In this aspect, I’m better than this person."

An Yan smiled and said, "I know, you’re the best."

Cheng Yi’s face was serious, but the tips of his ears were already slightly red.

The live stream was in delight on seeing this.

Viewer 1: Damn! Cheng Yi is even jealous! That’s too cute!

Viewer 2: I can’t believe he’s feeling jealous. I want to rub his slightly red ears!

Viewer 3: Wake up upstairs! Boss Cheng Yi’s ears can only be touched by Boss An Yan! Not only his ears, but his whole body!
