After I got mentally prepared, you show me this?

You posed for this long so that you could be a pretty target? We are a team, and that’s how you play and f*ck me?

Chubby Harry felt like today was an unlucky day for him as he was the only one left in the battle. He wondered if he was going to lose this battle as well. He wasn’t sure if his howitzer could eliminate the two Arrow I mechs at such a distance. Maybe wait until they get closer? Eh, I’ll die faster that way too.

The two Arrow I mechs were surprised and froze for a short while since they killed that white skeleton-like mech so easily. They quickly checked the system record, and it was indeed ‘Lord Egg’ who they had eliminated.

What happened? Are the two dead Raiders newbies? This seemed like the only reasonable explanation.

The two players in the two Arrow I mechs sighed in relief as they felt the pressure suddenly disappearing. Now that the generation-zero mech that somehow got a double kill like a monster was gone, they could play however they wanted to and win.

Chubby Harry’s Striker had taken out the howitzer again smoothly. It was amazing how skilled he was in long-range attacks when he operated a short-range mech model.

The two enemy mechs were slowly approaching the best place for Chubby Harry to shoot, and he could feel his hands turn sweaty. Today’s battle was the most thrilling that it had ever been for the past two weeks for him, and he thought to himself, I’m not an amateur anymore… I’m not an amateur anymore. If someone were to stand beside Chubby Harry, they would hear him repeating this phrase over and over again as if he was possessed.

Coming closer and closer. Hmm? Why are these two heading towards the Raiders? Wait no, they are heading toward Mu Fan’s generation-zero mech.

“Bro, we took out this generation-zero mech.”

“Ya, I’ve never seen a generation-zero mech since I started in the PO Battle Network. Let’s take a picture together as a memento. Add me as a friend, and send me the picture after.”

“No problem.”

The two Arrow I mechs were originally heading toward Chubby Harry’s direction, but they suddenly turned towards Mu Fan’s EH01 instead. They turned on the active detection radar just in case to prevent any sneak-attacks from the green team, which only comprised of Chubby Harry now.

The poor Mu Fan had been teleported out of the battlefield after the explosion, and he was back in the VIP room. He stared at the projection screen and watched the live battle, feeling a loss for words.

“This Raider is blocking the way!”

“Ya, this Raider under the generation-zero mech is so annoying, it’s in the way of our selfies.”

“Let’s move this kneeling one away.”

“Sure.”

The two Arrow I mechs reached out their metal arms as they tried to lift the kneeling Raider and move it aside.

Chubby Harry from not far away was already calibrating his aim, but then he saw these two trying to move the Raider through his lens.

Chubby Harry started to wonder if he was indeed a lowkey pro player and all the opponents he encountered before were all actors. Right now, these two enemies were moving the Raider that was on top of an army ant anti-material land mine.

Oh my God! They really won’t die if they don’t try to do something stupid.

Beep-Beep!

“What’s this? Sh*t, land mines. So damn cunning!”

Boom! With the sound of an explosion, smoke rushed into the sky as the two Arrow I mechs got blown away. Although they were both long-range mechs, the power of the land mine explosion wasn’t strong enough to completely destroy them, so they tried to adjust their direction while still in mid-air.

Unfortunately, they were blown away in the direction of Mu Fan’s EH01.

They weighed more than ten tonnes together. When they collided into the white skeleton-like mech, they all fell to the ground.

Beep-Beep!

Boom! This time, the energy reactors on the two mechs got blown up as a cloud of red smoke went up into the sky.

Chubby Harry couldn’t care about anything else as he stood up immediately and shot the two Arrow I mechs with his howitzer, allowing them to explode completely.

The two Arrow I mechs were more than dead.

An announcement broadcasted through the battlefield, “Double Kill for ‘Lemon Balloon.'”

Re:Striker froze as it stood on the rocks, and Chubby Harry decided that he was going to purchase these land mines for future battles as they were more than useful. Meanwhile, Mu Fan who was back in the VIP room watching the battle also had his jaw dropped as it was like a miracle how Chubby Harry had won.

What the heck! This was the thought that these two both had towards this outcome.
