“Mu Fan, Mu Fan, are you there?” Chubby Harry decided to ignore the two idiots in this level-1 room full of weirdos, and he called out to Mu Fan through the team voice communication channel.
“I’m here!” Mu Fan said inside his cockpit, but his voice wasn’t heard in the team voice communication channel as he didn’t know how to send voice messages.
“Mu Fan, where are you? Mu Fan?” Chubby Harry asked a few more times, and nobody answered him.
“Stop yelling and go to point B.” Those two unique players shouted again.
Chubby Harry had already blocked these two in the voice communication channel. He took a glance at the map, and as a responsible Silver 1-star pro player, his strategic approach was to choose point B.
There was no time for Harry to find Mu Fan now, or else the opponents would find him first and slaughter him before he got to Mu Fan.
With a birds-eye view looking down at this seemingly random rocky area, point A was located at the eight o’clock direction while point B was at the four o’clock. Mu Fan was at the innermost part of the six o’clock direction.
The map was fairly small. Since it was a first-generation mech battle room where every player’s mech had low mobility, the face-offs in a relatively smaller space would be more fascinating.
The map was simulating an ongoing battle at the edge of a city, and Chubby Harry was controlling his first-generation Re:Striker around. The Striker was a reality mode mech that could be purchased with star coins, and ‘Re:’ before its name represented the 5% increase to its mobility and defence.
[First-generation Re: Striker
Reality Mode Mech. This first generation mech was created by humans for land usage on rough terrain before going above the atmosphere. It is a military mech, and the control cabin located in the chest has been expanded. It is protected with high durability alloy plating. The design highlights include evenly distributed weight, mobility, and defence. The weapons loaded on board are the standard first generation military weapons. Such mechs are still active on some UGF planets due to its structural durability, and they are used by militias.

Weight: 8.15t
Class: Military-use first-generation mech
Maximum Speed: 55km/h
Weapons: Two-shot 128mm howitzer; 60mm Gatling gun, high durability dagger, and military-use alloy machete.
Engine: First-generation nuclear energy reactor
Accessory Equipment: Emergency energy reactor, first generation engine overloader (10% fluctuation)
F- in long-range combat, F+ in Re:defence, E in Re:close-range combat, F in mobility.
Chubby Harry had purchased almost all the star mechs from the first to the sixth generation and revised and modified every single one of them into a ‘Re:’ model. This was preparation! This was money! This was professionalism!
This was Young Master Harry of the Fuwen Corporation from Planet Loga!
Chubby Harry was piloting his Re:Striker as he leaped from a shipwreck to a huge rock. And then with a smooth transition, he landed onto the ground on all fours without moving.
Yes, he laid flat onto the ground and shouted in the voice communication channel, “Enemies discovered at point B!!! They launched an attack! Suppress enemy fire at point A!”
Then, Chubby Harry saw from the map that the two teammates in point A charged out.
He murmured to himself, “One, two, three, four; that should be about it.”
Then, he unmuted himself toward those two unique players in the voice communication channel.
The receiver in his cockpit captured the sounds of crossfire about three kilometers away, and the voice communication channel sounded more like a mess with aggressive cursing. Chubby Harry’s mech laid flat on the ground. With the uneven landscape and chipped boulders, he could only imagine what the crossfire looked like from the sounds he was hearing.
‘Maikang Star Bomber King’ of the green team was eliminated.
‘Mathiled’ of the red team was eliminated.
“That Lemon Balloon, I will kill you.” The two mechs believed Harry and charged out after his call. But in reality, that green dot which represented Chubby Harry on the map didn’t move at all after he made the leap.
The two mechs happened to run into the enemy mechs that were hiding in the area. After one mech was destroyed in the crossfire, the other one was half-dead as he hid behind the rocks. Damn it! We got tricked by that guy at point B.
“You trash!” The teammate who died first couldn’t speak in the voice communication channel anymore, so this was coming from the teammate who got half destroyed and had already exposed his location. Therefore, it was only a matter of a few minutes before he would be killed by the enemies, so he was swearing non-stop in the team voice communication channel.
And what was Chubby Harry doing right now?
