the next day.

Although the arrival of Valentina and Chi Hanfeng have filled the vacancy of the ace pilot of the God Hunting Group, the list of contestants has not yet been finalized.

The competition system of each round of the Ark Mecha Competition is determined by drawing lots and is completely random. Although most of them are one-on-one competitions, they also include group competitions and three-on-three team competitions, which require multiple pilots.

In the competition mode with multiple mechas, according to the requirements of the event organizer, each participating team must consist of three starting players and one substitute player.

Valentina is undoubtedly the number one starting player of the Hunting God Hunting Group. As for the other two places, the names of Layton and Ke Lan are written on them respectively - although Ke Lan's M5 driver's license was obtained through a certain

Obtained through a "special channel", his own operation level is limited to the extent of making the mecha move, but coupled with the cheating ability of "time and stop", he can develop several sets of secrets with him as the core

Come on tactics.

According to Ke Lan's request, Layton prepared a support mecha for him. Within the scope allowed by the competition rules, the armor and firepower of this mecha were directly maxed out. At the price, the maneuverability and melee capabilities were reduced.

It was completely abandoned.

"You just need to play this thing as a mecha version of a beach landing battle." Leighton said to Ke Lan, "In a three-on-three field match, even on the smallest battlefield, the starting points of the two sides are still a certain distance apart.

One hundred and fifty meters, if you can use that ability to achieve perfect accuracy... with the firepower of this mecha, it is enough to blow up the opponent a dozen times before it can touch you."

The three starting players were quickly determined, but everyone was in trouble as to who should be the substitute.

If this game is like those e-sports events in the old era, if a substitute player can sit on the bench from the qualifying stage to the world finals, and finally get a medal, then it will be the same no matter who you choose.

Just put together everyone - but the problem is that Ke Lan's body is too "specialized", and the flaws are even more obvious than the advantages. Although those secret tactics may achieve unexpected results the first few times they are used, but the

The more times you use it, the more likely your opponent will come up with ways to crack it.

If you are lucky enough to be drawn in single-player matches, it's okay. If you encounter multiple players in a row in the knockout stage, the possibility of overturning will be greatly increased, so the importance of this substitute player is no less important than that of the starter.

player.

Originally Chi Hanfeng was a good choice, but according to the requirements of the rules, the mechanic responsible for the maintenance and repair of the mecha and the contestant cannot be the same person, which directly eliminated the possibility of Chi Hanfeng ending up.

As for the other people in the hunting group, they don't even have the most basic M1 driver's license. If they want to learn to drive a mecha from scratch, there is simply no time.

"Tsk...this rule is too unfriendly to us..." Hound rubbed his chin and said, "How about, Ke Lan, you ask that intelligence dealer to help us recruit a pilot? It doesn't have to be

That kind of ace pilot can be almost as good as Layton?"

"I don't think it's feasible." Ke Lan shook his head, "Let's not talk about issues such as running-in. The competition is about to start. If we recruit people at this time, what if we recruit a mole who has been 'bought' by other teams?

What should we do? Not only will our tactics be leaked by then, but on the field, if this traitor starts acting out, we will be trapped in a two-on-four situation..."

"What Ke Lan said makes sense." Chi Hanfeng agreed, "This kind of thing has indeed happened before."

"By the way, Lao Chi -" Ke Lan seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly turned to Chi Hanfeng, "Can we participate in the mecha competition without armor? In other words, without mecha, we will end up in the physical body?

"

"No need for a mecha?" Chi Hanfeng was slightly startled, "How can that be done? If nothing else, I can't pass the step of sending the body for inspection... This is the same as our Striker 3 type skeleton, it is a violation

The rules of the game!”

"No, no, no..." Ke Lan waved his hands repeatedly, "What I mean is, equip this substitute player with a mecha that complies with the rules, and then have him abandon the mecha at the beginning of the actual game and take the form of an infantryman.

Is it possible to fight?"

"In that case..." Chi Hanfeng hesitated for a moment and nodded in astonishment, "Theoretically, it should be fine. I remember that during the 10th Mecha Competition, there was a pilot named Song Hana in the OW Club.

In a one-on-two situation where his own mecha was severely damaged, he chose to abandon his armor and self-destruct, directly blowing up one of the opponent's mechas that was too close, and then used the pulse light gun he carried to kill the other one.

The mecha was also destroyed in the explosion."

Chi Hanfeng paused and continued: "Although Song Hana's behavior was not judged as a violation by the event organizer, after that competition, 'it is prohibited to install self-explosion devices on mechas' was included in the rules.

It is simply impossible for you to copy what she did back then."

"There is no need for a self-destruct device. Even the mecha only needs to function as an 'admission pass'. What I need is the combat power of the pilot himself." Ke Lan said immediately.

The first person to react was Hound. He patted his thigh hard and said loudly: "Hey! I understand what you mean! You are planning to let Asano Akira be the substitute player, right?"

"Yes." Ke Lan nodded, "Even without a mecha, Akira Asano's maneuverability alone can outperform an average pilot."

"Although the Nino Alloy Blade cannot break through the body's armor, it still poses a considerable threat to external monitors, armor gaps, exposed pipelines or fragile joints. Asano Akira alone can contain the opponent's attack.

A mecha!" Layton took over the words and said, "If the other party ignores him and chooses to concentrate firepower on me and Wa

If Lian Jina is the case, then his room for performance will become even greater. In addition to the war blade, he can also carry equipment such as sticky grenades and individual anti-tank missiles... The only thing that needs to be paid attention to is his own safety. Although

The weapon power of participating mechas is limited, but it is still fatal to those without the protection of mechas."

"As long as it's not a covering attack, I should be able to handle it." Akira Asano said calmly, "But my ability consumes a lot of myself, and I shouldn't be able to use it a second time in a game."

"It doesn't matter, it can only be used once, which is enough to determine the outcome." Ke Lan said, "Everyone in any competition that Asano Akira participates in must give priority to ensuring his safety... Although victory is important, if the situation is really lost,

If we lose control, we will give up immediately, do you understand?"

"clear."

"Of course!"

Valentina and Layton said at the same time.

"In addition, with Asano Akira as the core, we can also design several sets of tactics. In this way, Asano Akira and I can replace each other, which can bring about completely opposite changes in our fighting styles, and the opponent will become more aggressive if he wants to target him.

It's even more difficult... There is even a third possibility: replace Layton and Asano Akira and I play at the same time." Ke Lan said.
