Chapter 584: Instantaneous Operation!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

A beam of light shot out of Ling Lan's gun. At the same time, Devil Blade pulled his trigger too. One of the opponents that woke up was the one he was looking at.

"Bang! Bang!" The two shots slammed into the mechas and two loud explosions rang out.

The two mechas flew out due to the force of the explosion. There were lights surrounding their mechas. This light came from their beam shield. One of the mechas had his beam shield dimmed while the other had a wound on its right shoulder. Black smoke was coming out of the wound. As the mecha flew out, the black smoke formed an arc in the air.

Ling Lan didn't see any effect after she fired her shot so she moved her gun and aimed it at her other opponents. The last batch of people had ended their lag time.

However, she was still too late. Her opponents had activated their beam shield and escaped unharmed from her attacks.

"I am still too slow. If I am just a little faster, I might have succeeded." Ling Lan stared at the mecha that escaped her attack coldly. She pouted her lips with regret. Her hand speed was still too slow. She missed the chance that she saw and wasted her shot.

The mecha operator that got hit slammed his operation table in anger. "Damn, I actually got hit." He felt humiliated to be injured by a nobody.

"Jiao Thirteen, this person must have a strong spiritual power. Be careful of their long-range attacks." Their temporary leader, Lin Five, reminded him.

Everyone knew that people with a stronger spiritual power would wake up earlier in the virtual world. The members in the Flying Dragon Special Forces were all-round talents that excelled in both their spiritual power and physical constitution. They would not take in people who were only good in one of them. Hence, it was normal that they would lose out to the mecha operators talented in their spiritual power and would wake up later than them.

Mecha operators that had a strong spiritual power were usually proficient in long-range attacks. This was because they were weaker physically so close-combat was not suitable for them. A strong physique was needed for close-combat as the body needed to withstand the blows dealt on their mechas. Hence, Lin Five reminded Jiao Thirteen to beware of long-range attacks. He was afraid that he would lose his cool and forget about this point. If he got defeated because of this, that would really be a humiliation.

Actually, Lin Five was surprised that Jiao Thirteen didn't manage to dodge the attack too. They were all trained to activate their defense mechanism the moment they woke up so that such situations wouldn't happen. By right, he should be able to dodge it.

Lin Five had no time to think. His opponent had already swung his giant sword towards him.

"Bang!" The two swords collided into each other. The people around them almost lost their balance. Two powerful close combat mecha operators were fighting heads on with each other.

"Jiao Thirteen, you activated your beam shield too late. Lousy." The mecha operator that managed to block Devil Blade's shot mocked Jiao Thirteen.

Jiao Thirteen was furious when he heard what his teammate said, "Wei Nine, go to hell. You are the one that is lousy."

Jiao Thirteen was certain that he activated his beam shield the moment he woke up. It was even smoother and faster than his training practice. However, he was still hit. He suspected that the mainframe ignored his controls and gave his opponent the chance to attack him.
