Dispersed Tactics

Toolman-style Stealth Mecha!? Everyone watching KID's live broadcast was suddenly stunned. In the development of team battle mechas, it had evolved into six types of mecha systems. Among them, the Stealth Mecha was the melee mecha with the highest attack power, boasting super-high attack speed and mobility. It also featured a special stealth system carried by the mecha itself, usually serving as the main damage output in team battles.

[Wait? Stealth doesn't carry attack weapons? What's the use of their Stealth?]

[Displacement support!? Doesn't KID's team already have three supports?]

In team battles, the main support positions were usually taken by tanks, controllers, and medics, with clear roles for the front, middle, and backlines. It was rare to see a Stealth Mecha take on a support role. On the one hand, Stealth Mechas had weak defensive capabilities. On the other hand, assigning the role of a toolman to a Stealth Mecha undoubtedly left an important output core open.

Yet, KID not only did that but also allowed Stealth to run within the field of vision of three strong teams' encirclement!?

In the live broadcast, the coordinates of the Stealth Mecha were not exposed among other enemy mechas. Masterfully utilizing the cover of floating debris and mining equipment, Stealth moved freely between various conveyor belts, with extremely high stealth and mobility. The mechas closely monitoring him lost his coordinates. When they realized it again, the attacks from above had already landed.

DAJ Stealth had to distance himself from KID's Artillery Trace. When he looked up while stepping on the conveyor belt, he saw a mecha moving parallel to him from above. The reduced visibility in the gravel environment and the similarly shaped mecha would have easily deceived DAJ Stealth into a near-real illusion, especially since the radar did not show the coordinates of teammates nearby.┆

"Captain, can't hit him." DAJ Artillery lost sight of Qingf. "He disappeared."

Illusion-type weapons were rare among team battle weapons, but not completely unheard of. DAJ Team had faced many strong teams and encountered various illusion-type weapons. These weapons relied on the deceptive nature of abilities and the ability to confuse the visual perception of mecha pilots by bypassing radar intelligence scans.

Such illusion-type weapons were not difficult to crack, mostly being area-effect weapons. For long-range illusion weapons, breaking the illusion was sufficient. For close-range illusion weapons, the user was already within the illusion. They might be deceived for a short time, but once the operating mechanism of the weapon was found, it could be neutralized. The problem was they couldn't capture the position of this mecha.

Under the influence of the illusion, KID's Stealth Mecha seemed to completely blend into the environment, appearing as if it had assimilated with the gravel and mining equipment in the field of view. Prolonged mecha aiming and tracking were not possible. At a critical moment, it simulated the appearance of mechas from other teams.

Captain of DAJ noticed the difficulty and immediately ordered DAJ Stealth to distance himself.

However, as he pulled away, KID's Artillery Trace seized the opportunity. Quickly switching to an energy cannon, in the moment DAJ Stealth escaped, the impact of the Wind Steel Cannon hit him directly, knocking him off the edge of the conveyor belt.

In an extreme state, DAJ Stealth used the grappling hook weapon to hook onto the next conveyor belt.

"I swear, this brother's reaction is fast!" Ji Qingfeng saw this scene as he ran from above. "He's strong."
