It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future - Chapter 584

Chapter 584: 584


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 .

It was understandable that Jiao Thirteen couldn't understand what went wrong . Ling Lan's shot was instantaneous . The moment the mainframe shut down the protection shield, Ling Lan fired the shot . Hence, the shot was deemed valid . If she had fired the shot a little faster, it would be an invalid shot and wouldn't have hurt Jiao Thirteen .

Of course, if Jiao Thirteen was able to instantaneously activate his beam shield, Ling Lan's attack wouldn't have hit him . However, he couldn't do such operations yet so he was injured .



This was why Devil Blade failed . He was slower than Ling Lan so his opponent managed to block his shot . No one had the time to analyze Ling Lan's attack now so they just thought that she was lucky .

Jiao Thirteen couldn't control his mecha's right hand anymore . If this happened to a normal long-range operator, their combat skills would drop exponentially and they wouldn't be able to continue the battle . But, the Flying Dragon Special Forces didn't allow their members to have any weaknesses . Every one of their mecha operators was trained to use both hands to handle their weapons . If the right hand of their mecha was injured, they could still use their left hand .

However, the left-hand attacks would not be as powerful as the right-hand attacks no matter how well they trained both their hands . Jiao Thirteen couldn't display his full ability . How well he managed to use his mecha's left hand depended on how hard he had practiced it .

Jiao Thirteen was furious . He took his beam gun with the mecha's left hand and prepared to shoot Ling Lan . Suddenly, huge energies formed into a whirlwind and attacked him .

Jiao Thirteen got a shock . He instantly jumped more than ten meters away . On the ground where he was standing just now, a deep cut had appeared .

"Whirlwind Strike!" A close-combat mecha rushed towards him with a huge cold weapon in its hand .

"Total Annihilation!" Total Annihilation was a basic attack but the powerful force coming from it gave Jiao Thirteen no chance of retreating . He decisively threw down his beam gun and grabbed his sword . He swung it at the mecha .

"Bang!" Another loud noise echoed throughout the combat arena . The other mechas that were fighting slowed down for a moment .

Ling Lan had been waiting for an opportunity all these while . She quickly pulled her trigger and a light beam shot out of her gun . The sudden light beam shocked her opponent and he immediately maneuvered his mecha to the left .

"Boom!" The light beam still managed to hit Ling Lan's opponent . The beam shield dimmed a little . Ling Lan's opponent got attacked the moment he woke up so he had to activate his beam shield to take on the blow forcefully . Now, he was hit again . His beam shield could only handle one more attack . If he didn't change his energy storage unit, he would be in the same situation as Jiao Thirteen .



Jiao Thirteen's opponent was Crazy Warrior . He laughed excitedly as he faced Jiao Thirteen . Ling Lan's attack at the start allowed him to get near this long-range mecha . If not, he might be the one getting chased around by this mecha .

Close-combat operators hated long-range operators the most . If they met a long-range operator on the battlefield, they needed to close the gap between them before they could fight their opponent . However, long-range operators were not stupid either . They would not give these close-combat mechas the chance to get near them .

In this situation, close-combat operators were at a disadvantage . They had to get near their opponents while they were being attacked by long-range attacks . If they met someone as strong as them, it would mean defeat .

Jiao Thirteen started fighting with Crazy Warrior . The other people saw their opponents and started fighting too .

Devil Blade had a hard time handling his opponent . His opponent was a close-combat operator .

"This operator is as strong as Domineering Blade . I wonder what his rank is among the six people . " Devil Blade was a little frustrated . If his opponent was not the strongest, their team would be in a dire state .

Devil Blade knew that if he wanted to turn the situation around, he must widen the distance between them . He operated a balanced mecha but his long-range attacks were better than his close-combat skills . Hence, he wanted to find a way to use his long-range attacks .

He fought too safely at the start and allowed his opponent to close in on him . If he had attacked bolder, he would not be in such a difficult position .

Devil Blade exchanged another blow with his opponent . Suddenly, a short-distanced beam gun appeared in his mecha's left hand . A light beam shot out of the beam gun and enveloped his opponent .

This attack forced his opponent to retreat . Devil Blade took the chance to move away from his opponent .

"I will not allow you to run away!" Once Devil Blade moved, his opponent knew what he was planning to do . His opponent struck a Whirlwind Strike at him and rushed towards him .

Devil Blade saw his opponent chasing him . He gritted his teeth and powered his engine to the maximum . He needed to pull the distance away from his opponent even if it meant overburdening his engine . He continuing shooting his opponent with his beam gun and tried to slow down his opponent .

"Comparing speed with me?" Devil Blade's opponent gave a cold smile when he saw what Devil Blade was doing . His mecha was modified to become faster . He accelerated his engine . A loud roar sounded from his mecha and his mecha's speed increased again . He closed in on Devil Blade .

"Damn, my opponent's mecha has been modified to have a faster speed . " Devil Blade was devastated . He was really unlucky today . He failed his sneak attack and met a speed-modified mecha .

Devil Blade was expecting to meet such a mecha since most close-combat mechas would be modified to become faster or stronger . However, he was still affected when he really met the mecha .

At this moment, Ling Lan's voice appeared in the team channel, "Devil Blade, assist Domineering Blade immediately . "

Devil Blade was stunned when he heard this order . How was he supposed to go over? He was in a fight with his opponent and couldn't free himself .

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared and struck the mecha that was chasing Devil Blade .

Devil Blade's opponent stopped due to the attack . When he wanted to continue chasing Devil Blade, another light appeared and interrupted his operation .

Devil Blade saw Ling Lan coming to help him . He didn't know if Ling Lan could stop his opponent but he still turned around decisively and went to help Domineering Blade .
