Chapter 1 Su Mo's First Battle

Inside the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner, Su Mo looked at the familiar interior and felt a thousand emotions.

This was his first time piloting a mecha since his recovery. The feeling of nostalgia made him tremble with excitement.

However, at this moment, the words of the Counterfeit Creator · Devourer poured a bucket of cold water on Su Mo's heart.

"I advise you not to make a fool of yourself. You might be hit too hard and unable to accept it."

"What are you talking about? I'm a tough guy who doesn't even blink when facing death. Would I be that fragile? Besides, he's using a Fourth Generation to fight my Fifth Generation, am I supposed to be afraid of him?"

In any case, mecha control had always been Su Mo's strength, and he had experienced countless battles, large and small. Although Su Mo had a premonition that he might not be able to beat the old man, the other party was using a mecha one generation lower. If he still couldn't beat him, then he would really be hopeless.

"Hmph, I'll be watching."

"Keep your eyes peeled and see if I'm easy to bully. Don't underestimate me."

As soon as Su Mo finished speaking, the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner and the IV Generation Biomecha · Dark Warrior both lit up at the same time.

At that moment, layers of armor plates above their heads cracked open.

*Ka~*

Instantly revealing an emergency exit passage.

Su Mo was the first to control the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner, transforming into a streak of light and rushing out, with the old man controlling the Dark Warrior close behind.

Two streaks of light shot out of the port.

After a long time, they arrived at an uninhabited area of space on the outskirts of the Ring of Stars.

Su Mo controlled the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner, staring at the Dark Warrior in front of him. He became inexplicably excited.

However, Su Mo also noticed something unusual, which was that the old man did not activate the AT Field Barrier when controlling the IV Generation Biomecha · Dark Warrior, probably because he felt it would be useless.

Su Mo controlled the Executioner to raise a black spiral-patterned metal spear in his hand, pointing it at the old man.

"Are you sure you want to fight like this?"

"Come on."

The old man controlled the Dark Warrior, facing Su Mo head-on without a trace of fear, and the biomecha did not exude any special aura.

"Alright, I won't be polite then. Let's begin!"

Su Mo shouted in the communication channel.

The next second, Su Mo controlled the Executioner with full power, transforming into a streak of light and launching a frontal assault at an extremely terrifying speed.

Without saying anything else, the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner completely crushed the Dark Warrior in terms of performance, so there was no need to play any fancy tricks.

If this attack hit, it could be a one-hit kill!

A glint of light flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes, and then the entire mecha suddenly shifted without warning.

Accurately dodging Su Mo's attack, the old man also controlled the Dark Warrior, waving two particle light blades and quickly sweeping them over.

*Tzzzt~*

The light blades struck the energy barrier of the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner.

Light splattered everywhere.

However, the Dark Warrior's attack did not have much effect on the Executioner at all.

Even so, Su Mo did not take it lightly at all. Instead, his heart was in his throat, and his eyes were fixed on the old man. He immediately controlled the Executioner to deflect his body to the limit, and the spiral spear swept across like a poisonous snake.

But the old man seemed to be able to predict Su Mo's attack trajectory in advance.

He controlled the Dark Warrior to retreat, and Su Mo's attack missed.

Su Mo calmed down. He had long predicted that the old man's control skills must be very heaven-defying, so he did not panic at all.

Although the old man could dodge countless attacks, as long as he made one mistake, he would win.

So he wielded the spear and constantly swept it towards the opponent's vitals.

Every thrust was fatal! There was no trace of mercy.

However, the old man floated in the air like a sprite, dodging lightly and freely, always able to evade Su Mo's attacks effortlessly.

Even if Su Mo made a prediction in advance, the other party could still move one step ahead of Su Mo and dodge.

At the same time, he wielded the particle light blade in his hand, inserting it into the gaps and occasionally slashing at the energy barrier.

However, behind the seemingly relaxed response, the old man's eyes gradually became solemn.

The light in his cloudy eyes flickered non-stop. Su Mo's attacks were exceptionally precise and tricky. There was no pattern to be found, but the seemingly chaotic attacks were all linked together.

The old man also felt the pressure gradually increasing. Su Mo's skills were better than he had imagined.

In the starry sky, the Executioner occupied the advantage and continued to suppress the Dark Warrior.

At this time, the Dark Warrior was like a lone boat in a storm, ready to capsize at any time.

But this lone boat was unusually strong in the attacks of the storm, going against the current.

Su Mo frowned, and his eyes gradually appeared a trace of bloodshot. He felt more and more pressure.

All of his heavy punches were like hitting the air, without any effect.

However, Su Mo always tried his best to calm down and did not lose his mind.

In the moment he forced the Dark Warrior back, he suddenly controlled the Executioner, then raised his left hand, and beams of bright white light bombarded the old man.

However, the old man had no intention of dodging. He controlled the Dark Warrior and charged forward.

The entire Dark Warrior slightly turned his body, dodging the incoming light beams, while going against the current.

The double light blades slashed heavily on the Executioner's energy barrier.

Su Mo wielded the spiral spear in his hand like a whirlwind, sweeping over.

"Whirlwind Spear Assault." (Jifeng qiang xi)

The entire spiral spear turned into countless afterimages, attacking the old man from different angles.

The old man controlled the Dark Warrior with a ghostly posture, dodging all the attacks.

Su Mo's nerves were tense, constantly calculating the old man's movement trajectory and predicting his dodging direction in advance, while paying attention to the integrity of the Executioner's energy barrier.

As a result, he found that the energy barrier of the V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Executioner had unknowingly dropped to 73%, nearly one-third of it had been consumed.

Moreover, according to the statistics given by the micro-auxiliary system.

He had been hit by attacks more than twenty times, something he had never encountered before.

In Su Mo's impression, he had always been the one to exhaust his enemies to death, but he never thought that one day he would be treated as a boss and slowly be exhausted to death.

Even though his attack speed and attack angle were almost unbelievably tricky.

But the opponent was still able to easily resolve it, as if he knew what he wanted to do in advance, and never confronted him head-on. And as long as his attack was slightly weaker, the old man would seize every opportunity to counterattack.

Su Mo now clearly realized that his speed was still not fast enough, his skills were not strong enough, and he was still unable to reach the point of threatening the opponent.

Now, he seemed to have the upper hand, but in fact, he was being led by the nose by the other party.
