Emily, Edward Amelia, which one was the real her? During her time at the Martial Arts Hall, as an apprentice of meditation, she dimmed her radiance, cast aside all constraints, immersed herself in meditation for enlightenment, and acted as a naive and shy little girl.
Compared to her past, the current Amelia seems like a completely different person. Her vibrant, luminescent eyes resemble deep space stars, and the subtle smile on her lips is profoundly enigmatic. She possesses elegant manners, yet a brilliant mind, making everything seem transparent under her insightful gaze, leaving no room for deceit.
This time, Ophelia guided seven elite students from the Mecha Department, providing a demonstration of and explanation for remote weapon combat scenarios via networked fights.
The battlefield changes rapidly, and a networked battle is a microcosm of the battlefield. Due to its unpredictability and uncertainty, this battle was led by Ophelia, a substitute teacher from the Yingland Royal Military Academy's Mecha Department.
Amelia is a future battleship commander. The academy will select elites from this group to serve as elite mecha pilots for Amelia's battleship. She wanted to see what kind of brilliant man a potential elite might be. At this moment, the only task for the few warriors was to learn from this advanced duel, then gradually eliminate each other through competition, waiting for the academy's final evaluation.
When they saw Instructor Ophelia initiating the match, all the students in the room held their breath! Even Amelia couldn't help but furrow her brows slightly.
It was well-known that finding an opponent for Ophelia in Star Wars was extremely difficult due to her near-Red Cloak level strength. Yet, surprisingly, she chose to participate in the Sky Ladder match. This meant that the system would match Ophelia with an opponent with a similar strength rating from countless possible candidates. But it had to be said that the skill level among the top Star Wars players was uneven. Although this beautiful girl had only 105 flawless victories, her actual strength far exceeded this figure, because the mecha model she used was the old-style Federal Gun Rider model.
Ding-dong...
Following the system's prompt, her matched opponent was revealed—the Phantom Knight 0001...
What attracted attention was not the Phantom Knight 0001 itself—though it was of some concern, as its performance was even less than that of a Gun Rider. What concerned her more was the number of spectators outside the field, which had nearly reached a million, causing quite a surprise in Yingland. Ophelia glanced at the opponent's data—ID: Revenge Shadow Rider. Besides the overly simple ID, there was no additional information, not even any win-loss record, besides a simple four-win streak.
Whose hype was this? Well, it didn't matter. Ophelia sighed and decided to quickly end this pointless duel and move on to the next one. She didn't pay any attention to the Shadow Rider.
"Let's get this over with quickly," Ophelia of Yingland proposed. The two chose the map at random simultaneously.
"Ophelia of Yingland VS Revenge Shadow Rider!" The buzzer sounded, announcing the beginning of the battle.
The Gun Rider picked up her laser gun and pointed it at her opponent with a cool pose and elegant movements. Her smooth operation was highly admired by everyone in Yingland!
With a sizzle and a crack, a laser beam shot out. Everyone in Yingland believed that the next second would see the destruction of the Revenge Shadow Rider. Was the nearly one million spectators just a hype? To be honest, they were disdainful of such a matchup.
But the shot missed. People noticed with bewilderment that the Revenge Shadow Rider hardly moved, only slightly shifting its body, allowing the white beam to pass it and shoot into the dense jungle.
A smile crept up on Ophelia's face. If the opponent even lacked this level of predictive ability, it would become a real challenge. As she had anticipated, Ophelia didn't aim for a one-shot kill but intended to display real battlefield suppression techniques to the students during the battle.
As the Revenge Shadow Rider made a slight move, a second laser shot followed, targeting the other side of its body.
It dodged again... In the nick of time, the Revenge Shadow Rider, seemingly defying inertia, managed to dodge two laser shots with an instant turn.
"Heh, not bad." The laser gun in Ophelia of Yingland's hands elegantly turned in a circle, then locked onto the lower part of the Phantom Knight 0001. With a sizzle and a pop...
Whoosh! The Shadow Rider dodged again.
Fourth, fifth, sixth... Continuous laser shots appeared around the Revenge Shadow Rider. Being suppressed by the opponent, the mecha's operational space was getting smaller and smaller.
The audience, who did not understand the situation, were sweating for the Revenge Shadow Rider. "Fight back!" Only those who were familiar with the Revenge Shadow Rider understood the situation. The Revenge Shadow Rider was not reluctant to fight back, but had no opportunity to get close. It had never used remote weapons in its past battles, which meant that the Revenge Shadow Rider was not adept at shooting. Doing so would disrupt its rhythm of attack and defense.
Now, the Shadow Rider can no longer dodge smoothly. Its mecha started to wobble more and more. In the end, it narrowly dodged the laser shots time and time again thanks to its outstanding skills, but it was caught in an irreversible disadvantageous cycle.
Such suppression was unheard of and unseen, but it was a basic technique of the Red Cloak elite. The students of Yingland were more than just excited by now. They had only seen such scenes on light screen televisions before – seeing it in person was simply overpowering.
Eight, nine, ten...
Each laser shot was like the Reaper's Scythe that would take a life, and confronting it was the Shadow Rider's unpretentious consecutive dodges. Under the heavy pressure, it was only a matter of time before failure. Finally, the Shadow Rider insightfully sprinted in a certain direction, breaking through the blockade.
Upon seeing this, Ophelia couldn't help but smile. If the opponent hadn't done this, they might have been able to drag it out for another ten seconds or so. But now, they were literally in mid-air with nothing to push against, inevitably leading to their death.
Ophelia instantly locked onto three positions on the Revenge Shadow Rider - the cockpit, the head, and the knee joint. As long as her laser gun didn't malfunction, even divine intervention wouldn't be able to dodge this precise shot.
You have to admit, the Revenge Shadow Rider was very strong. To control a Phantom Night 0001 to this degree, there were probably very few people in the world who could do that - but human strength is always limited to some extent.
Time stood still, the scene froze. This was a system death close-up. People racked their brains but couldn't guess what miraculous move the Revenge Shadow Rider could pull next. It had repeatedly turned the tide, repeatedly shown miracles to the vast audience. Perhaps, if it hadn't moved this way, it could have held on a little longer. But now, it had jumped into the fire pit itself.
"Heh!" In the moment the scene froze, the Revenge Shadow Rider let out a shout. A flash of firelight briefly surrounded the mecha, forcing it to make an extreme flip and twist in the air that defied physical explanation.
It dodged! The Revenge Shadow Rider actually dodged a deadly attack!? The audience was filled with disbelief. Only Ophelia knew that this was thanks to the high-powered propulsion system of Phantom Knight 0001.
