Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr The cheetah continuously changed its movements in mid-air, using the various flying obstacles to avoid landing on the ground. Instead, it borrowed momentum multiple times to weave nimbly through the air, passing one obstacle after another to arrive at the final destination without any danger, perfectly passing this assessment mission.
"Congratulations to XXX for graduating with a time of 1 minute 57 seconds, entering the top 1000 of the elite leaderboard." A line of red text suddenly appeared on the screen of Ling Lan's mecha. This proved that the opponent's speed was indeed outstanding.
"Wow, that's amazing. His result actually allowed him to enter the top 1000 of the elite leaderboard, and this is only his first time." Little Four's words stunned Ling Lan once more. Mind you, the opponent's control ability was something that even she, who had the learning space and more practice time than the average person, could not achieve, but this person had actually done it so easily...
"Could it be that he's hiding his previous clearance results?" Ling Lan felt her confidence take a big hit. Then, she remembered that he was an evolved spectre who could hide information in the virtual world. Could he be hiding something in this area as well?
"I've checked. He really hasn't." Little Four's words let Ling Lan know that the opponent's results were real and valid. This made Ling Lan work even harder. This time, she truly felt the difference between her and the aberrant geniuses of this world. Initially, she had been a little relaxed because she had no match in the Central Scout Academy, but now, she once again tightened her grip on hard work, persistently marching towards the path of the strong.
"He's really strong. I wonder what level I can reach." Ling Lan had a competitive spirit in her heart. She had always been the boss in the academy, but now that she was suddenly being suppressed by someone else, she was actually a little disgruntled.
"Why don't you try it yourself, Boss?" Little Four was obviously a restless person, egging her on.
Ling Lan was indeed curious to know what level her basic control had reached. So, she listened to Little Four and began choosing the basic assessment mission.
Ling Lan felt herself being transported into a spacious space. This space was different from the one she had seen for the cheetah's assessment.
"Every assessment map is randomized. It's said that there are over 10,000 maps, so it's almost impossible to study the maps thoroughly beforehand. This also ensures that every assessment result is real and valid," Little Four explained to Ling Lan why the maps were different.
"Since the maps are different, why is the ranking based on time? I think there must be some difficulty in these 10,000 maps. "Ling Lan was somewhat puzzled.
"The difficulty of all the maps is about the same. The basic control of each map assessment is about the same, so it can accurately reflect the true level of the mecha operator. For example, the operator of the cheetah just now completed that map in 1 minute 57 seconds. This map is almost the same time, so the difference will not be more than plus or minus one second."
Ling Lan nodded to show that she understood. She saw a countdown timer appear on the mecha's screen. This kind of reminder was much more humane than her learning space. After all, it gave you time to prepare, unlike the learning space, where the time to start was completely up to its whims. Every time it started, it would come out of the blue, making Ling Lan feel very helpless.
Seeing the two large letters' GO 'appear, Ling Lan operated her rabbit mecha and leapt out like it was flying. Completely focused on the assessment, Ling Lan did not know that at this time, a familiar mecha had entered her assessment mission space. It was that cheetah mecha, the evolved spectre that Ling Lan had always thought to be very dangerous.
It turned out that Ling Lan had been observing the cheetah mecha from the sidelines in his assessment space. However, Ling Lan's mecha was really quite harmless, and the mecha's movements of shaking its head and chewing on a carrot were also very lively. This made the cheetah mecha operator laugh involuntarily, and he could not help but feel curious about the mecha operator.
He found that the rabbit mecha was just watching, so he let it be. When the assessment ended and he saw the system notification, he was very excited and satisfied. When he calmed down, he was just about to choose to graduate and leave the mecha training hall when he unexpectedly found that Ling Lan's rabbit mecha had also chosen the assessment mission. Curious, he did not choose to graduate, but instead chose the option of returning to the furnace to train, returning to the mecha training hall. Then, he came in to watch Ling Lan's assessment performance.
Of course, this choice meant that he would have to take the basic assessment all over again in future, but he did not mind. After all, for him, passing the assessment was a very simple matter.
Little Four had noticed the other had come in to watch at the first moment, but Little Four did not warn Ling Lan. Besides, Little Four did not think that the other would be able to affect them in any way. Even if the other was an evolved spectre, Little Four still believed that the virtual world was his territory. No one would be able to harm Ling Lan under his watch.
In order to let the rabbit mecha jump and run to its heart's content without any burden, Ling Lan took out the carrot she had been carrying on her back and put it into her mouth. A large rabbit could be seen leaping about nimbly in that open space, dodging obstacle after obstacle.
There was enough space for Ling Lan's mecha to jump about freely, so Ling Lan did not pay too much attention to those obstacles. Meanwhile, Ling Lan was currently running at the fastest speed she could make the rabbit mecha run, which meant that her hand speed had already reached its peak.
"So fast! The other's hand speed is probably at an advanced level. Who would have thought that there would be such a powerful youth on planet Azure? Is he an academy student? If he's an academy student, then who is he? Is he a super prodigy who managed to challenge the lockdown at 13 years old? " The cheetah mecha operator saw the speed of the rabbit mecha and sighed inwardly in admiration. In his mind, he began to wonder which person on planet Azure this rabbit mecha operator could be.
Actually, the cheetah mecha could not be blamed for not thinking of other planets, because the newbies in the mecha training hall were all either newbies who had just entered the virtual world or students who had successfully challenged the Scout Academy. Regardless of which, they were all people who did not have money in their pockets and thus could not afford the exorbitant teleportation fee. If they wanted to learn mecha, they would definitely train in the mecha training hall on their home planet, and would not choose to teleport to another planet.
Just like that, due to a misunderstanding, the cheetah mecha operator was unable to find the operator of the rabbit mecha until he went to the military academy. Only then did he discover some clues.
Ling Lan made several high-speed turns, which left the cheetah mecha operator stunned and somewhat regretful. "Hmm, there seems to be some flaws in her accuracy. However, at this speed, her performance is already extremely perfect." The cheetah mecha operator knew very well that the faster the speed, the more difficult it would be to operate the mecha. Some turns could be done perfectly at low speeds, but at high speeds, it was very difficult to do so. Generally, as long as one could successfully complete a set of turns, it would already be considered an excellent performance.
Ling Lan's performance in the first half of the journey could be said to be perfect, but the second half was not so easy. Ling Lan was running happily when she found that the difficult part had arrived. It turned out that she had arrived at the obstacle zone for irregular movement. Even though Ling Lan had already known that this obstacle existed, because it had come so suddenly, she was still somewhat caught off guard.
This was because this obstacle for irregular movement had really come out of nowhere. There was no pattern to speak of at all.
Ling Lan was running at high speed when out of the corner of her eye, she saw a large rock suddenly flying towards her left. At that speed, Ling Lan knew very well that it would definitely hit her mecha squarely in the waist.
Ling Lan made an instant decision and immediately rejected the option of emergency shutdown. Ling Lan knew very well that once she stopped, her mecha's speed would not be able to pick up again. This was because there was no longer any space or opportunity for her mecha to slowly increase its speed. The only thing she could do now was to rely on speed to break through the obstacle.
Ling Lan's choice was the same as the cheetah mecha's — she was prepared to use the momentum to move forward. The thrusters on both sides of Ling Lan's mecha's waist activated simultaneously. Borrowing the power of the thrusters, the mecha's speed once again increased by another level.
However, the large rock was too fast. Even though Ling Lan had instantly activated her mecha's thrusters to increase her mecha's speed by a notch, she had only managed to get half of her mecha out of the range of the large rock. The rabbit mecha's hind legs were still unable to completely escape the impact range of the large rock.
"Is it going to fail?" The cheetah mecha operator frowned, because at this time, the rabbit mecha no longer had any chance of evading. However, right at this moment, the rabbit mecha's next move made his eyes light up, and he could not help but cheer loudly.
It turned out that the rabbit mecha had actually made an unexpected move. The rabbit mecha's hind legs suddenly jerked, and then the mecha's waist and hind legs formed a nearly 90 degree angle. Because of this strange movement, the large rock barely brushed past the rabbit mecha's hind legs. Not only that, the rabbit mecha's hind legs, which had been tilted upwards, kicked off the large rock that had brushed past it, and a terrifyingly loud sound rang out. Meanwhile, because of this kick, the rabbit mecha's originally high speed forward motion had actually shot forward at more than three times its original speed.
If the instructors of the learning space had seen this move, they would have all cried out in surprise that this was the ultimate combat move, Rabbit Sky Leap.
Admittedly, this move was derived from the rabbit mecha's ability, but it was actually not suited for the rabbit mecha to use. However, in that scene just now, Ling Lan had been unable to avoid it, and had been forced to use this move involuntarily. Of course, being able to make the rabbit mecha perform this move so vividly was also thanks to Ling Lan's hard work in the learning space. She had already assimilated those basic controls into her instincts. Thus, in that critical moment, she had been able to coincidentally use this move to help Ling Lan avoid this desperate situation.
However, Ling Lan's crisis was not over yet. Due to the added force of the Rabbit Sky Leap, the mecha's speed broke through the limits of Ling Lan's control. Meanwhile, due to the mecha's increased speed, all sorts of obstacles also sped up along with it, appearing even more erratic and erratic. For a moment, Ling Lan was actually thrown into a fluster.
Seated in the rabbit mecha, Ling Lan was already sweating profusely. She was completely focused on the images presented by the mecha from all directions, dodging those obstacles and attacks coming from who knew where. Unbeknownst to her, her hand speed had actually broken through the bottleneck, becoming even faster. There were even a few times where she had never seen her hand speed before had appeared.
