Zhuang Zhou's video was immediately recommended by the official platform, and shortly after, it appeared on the Mars side as well.
The Mars players were completely speechless, while the Earth players had already taken over Mars' livestream.
"Don't bother watching, Mars babies, you won't learn it!"
"See that? This is the true power of the Fang of the Overlord! Who can match it?"
"The Puppet Master is invincible..."
"But they've only won once, and now they act like they're unbeatable."
"Where did this guy come from? I've never heard of a gun expert before."
"Nonsense, the Armored Tiger is an outdated model. This person is truly formidable. When did USE produce such a skilled player?"
.......................
A significant number of players flooded into Mars' livestream, finding a breakthrough after feeling suppressed for a long time since the Solar System Championship.
Winning against the stronger opponent and doing so in such a satisfying manner indeed lifted the recent oppressive atmosphere in USE. Losing to NUP in the Mech Tournament wasn't unexpected, but losing to ROM was a genuine surprise. It was a problem that USE as a whole had never considered. On the other hand, the victorious Mars players were also in an interesting state, especially considering the extroverted nature of Mars inhabitants. To put it nicely, they were passionate, but not so nicely, they were arrogant and domineering.
Li Hao took a break after a while. Recently, he had been randomly assigned several older models of USE mechs.
Ding dong...
Li Hao's lazy expression disappeared, and a smile curved at the corner of his mouth as he received a notification from his bleem email.
Bleem Mission 128: Can only use USE's Armored Series Mobile Suits.
Li Hao was momentarily stunned, and his gaze became slightly unfocused as he opened his own mech inventory. He breathed a sigh of relief. Inside were just a few mechs, but indeed, there were the Armored Series Three Brothers: Armored Dragon, Armored Tiger, and Armored Leopard.
It wasn't that the system always randomly assigned him Armored Series mechs. His mech inventory had few mechs to begin with, and the mechs in the EMP were not free. As a player in the Earth battle zone, the Armored Series Three Brothers were given to him as a gift, permanently and for free. He also received a few other mechs through various events.
Buy? That didn't exist.
Why was he able to try out various mechs before? It was all thanks to the free rotation in the mech pool. You could play with whatever was available for free. But in the real ranked matches, there was no such thing as free rotation.
What kind of trick is Bleem up to now?
It's understandable that they want him to reach 3000 EMP points, as it's likely preparation for future tasks. But why only these three models?
Could it be because he's broke?
Over the years, he has done so much, seemingly in a chaotic manner. Li Hao vaguely feels that there is a thread connecting all of it, leading to some goal. However, he can't understand what troubles his thinking is experiencing when it comes to what Bleem actually is. Does it belong to humans or is it non-human?
If we assume it belongs to humans, the technology exhibited by Bleem is far beyond what is currently possible. And if it were humans controlling it, why would they engage in such tedious activities?
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
If it doesn't belong to humans, then this civilization sees him as an experiment. However, the various explorations, assassinations, and encounters conducted this year are purposeful. Moreover, the content and language of the emails are very human-like.
Playing or experimenting doesn't fit this pattern.
Lost in thought, Li Hao loses interest in continuing the fight. In order to stop his mind from wandering, he needs some excessive physical activity.
When the Puppet Master's avatar becomes dim, the disappointment in the hearts of the over 200,000 fans who were watching is evident. This is the perfect opportunity to teach those arrogant Martians a lesson and make them understand the depth of Earth's power.
Of course, the Martian players are even more furious. Since the establishment of the Martian Federation, the Martians' goal has been to lead the entire Solar System Alliance. They don't even care about the Moon people, let alone the Earthlings. They firmly believe that it's only a matter of time before Martians dominate. They have always been the ones provoking others. How could they tolerate someone daring to challenge them?
Who could have imagined that these Earthlings are so shameless? They just hit and run.
Stanen is furious as well. He has been sending continuous challenge invitations. He still can't accept that it was just a coincidence. He wants to play another match.
However, his opponent has already gone offline and completely ignored him. At the same time, Stanen's Tianxin device received a message.
A single message.
"Stanen, the Blaze Wolf Squadron doesn't need weaklings. You have been expelled."
Stanen's pupils dilate... He roars hysterically as he leaves the training room...Feynman and Alz have recently become addicted to studying the Puppet Master. This is also a characteristic of the Moon people. Not to mention, the human personalities within the four major alliances are quite different.
Moon people are proud and reserved, meticulous in their actions, always thinking three steps ahead, and they enjoy exploring the unknown.
Earthlings are proud and conservative, overestimating themselves and reluctant to change.
Martians are indulgent and outgoing, they enjoy taking risks, and have a strong desire to be in charge. Titans admire the strong. Previously, they followed USE, but now they are staunch allies of NUP.
Although Feynman suffered a defeat, after a few days of frustration, he is now even more excited to have discovered his weaknesses.
"Do you think he made calculated judgments or just got lucky with that move?" Feynman couldn't help asking.
"Who knows? This kind of leveraging strength, the operation rate is higher in virtual environments. It's really challenging in real mode, risking everything." Alz shrugged his shoulders, not believing it himself.
"Alz, you're wrong. From intentionally letting the Heaven Wolf hit him to the final strike, everything was calculated," a cold voice chimed in. Tita had arrived. "This person is dangerous, and he has tremendous courage."
In the dormitory of the Tianjing Mech Academy, Zhuang Zhou looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction. His fan base had grown from 500 to over 10,000 followers. As a freshman in the journalism department, this was quite an achievement.
His new work was already completed. Zhuang Zhou was also a carrier of the Golden Gene. Unfortunately, his manifestation didn't lie in the combat direction. In fact, he also had a dream of becoming an ace pilot. Manifestations are usually easy to measure, but his was rather strange. It was more like a premonition. He seemed to possess some kind of predictive ability, but not the type that predicts lottery numbers. It was more like sudden inexplicable thoughts or speculations, and nine times out of ten, they turned out to be correct.
He didn't know if it was just good luck or something else. From the moment he saw the Puppet Master, he had this feeling. And he had become accustomed to following this feeling, continuing to explore. This feeling always brought him surprises.
It was the same with the Puppet Master.
Tianxin wallpaper set successfully: A smoke-filled Martian battlefield. The towering and fierce first-generation Kaitiger wielding the Warlord's Spear, with a slight tilt of the head, gazing at the remnants of the Heaven Wolf not far away. Although it was a cold, lifeless mech, it made everyone feel the disdain of a king.
This is what Earthlings need, what they desire, because they are all Earthlings. No matter how fallen they may be, their pride cannot be erased.
Suddenly, a bold thought surged into his mind. Is the Puppet Master an Earthling?
What is he?
An elite of the Mobile Forces?A military academy student?
A pure civilian expert?
Zhuang Zhou's heart started pounding. Since the appearance of the Puppet Master, most of his battles occurred between 7 to 12 at night, which coincided with the opening hours of the EMP at the Earth Military Academy.
Just then, the door of the dormitory burst open. "Holy shit, Zhuang Zhou, what did you send? Is this guy your friend? He's fucking amazing, taking off! Plus, he's so damn cool. I want to set it as my Tianxin wallpaper too!"
The posture and gaze of the Kaitiger in the image were incredibly cool.
Zhuang Zhou also found it cool. He just didn't expect that this image would trend on EMP...
This was inconceivable and impossible in the past. It could only be said that the defeat in the Mech Battle had made Earthlings eager for a victory, even if it was an insignificant amateur match.
Li Hao exercised properly, but his appetite was immense. After exercising, he felt hungry again and could only eat a late-night snack. He felt that his ultimate downfall would be his own wallet.
Back in the dormitory, Ma Long was standing on a chair giving a lecture.
"I'm telling you guys, both of you are wasting your lives. Women are the most wonderful beings in this world. Today, I'll share with you the key to pursuing girls, which is the Four-character Golden Rule: Hard, Boobs, Cheap, and Pretentious. Don't read them together. Hard... Musashi, put away your muscles. Damn it, your physique can only attract the attention of men. The true essence of being hard lies in your attitude. Xiao Zuo, pay extra attention. Don't be a sycophant. Sycophants have nothing. When interacting with girls, you must have your own opinion. For example, when you go out to eat, don't ask what the other person likes. Just choose a distinctive place. Be assertive. Girls tend to hesitate by nature, so show them your strong side. That's what being hard means!"
Musashi and Xiao Zuo listened attentively like elementary school students. Both of them were normal guys, and if they claimed to have no interest in girls, that would be nonsense. It was just that dealing with girls was incredibly difficult. Although they didn't say it out loud, they admired Ma Long's ease and charm in front of girls, as if he were in his element.
It was a natural talent to the point that Musashi often wondered if Ma Long's dominant genes were attracting the opposite sex.
"The second point is boobs. Xiao Zuo, wipe that lascivious smile off your face. This isn't about that kind of boobs. It's about balancing strength and gentleness, understand? Guys should know how to be spoiled, that's the technique!"Musashi smiled and raised his middle finger, "Is that so?"
Then he burst into laughter together with Xiao Zuo, leaving Ma Long twitching his eyebrows. These two idiots.
"Your behavior is twisted. Showcasing your childish dependence on a girl at the right moment will evoke her maternal instincts and tolerance..."
Li Hao entered the room. "Are you preaching again, Second Brother? It all depends on talent."
"Haha, Hao ge, you have great talent. Everyone is talking about you and Ye Tong now. Share it with your bros," Ma Long teased.
