13。
This number, for the people of the Celestial Empire, was not too remarkable. Although in Taoism and Buddhism, this number had various auspicious meanings.
But this number, for Westerners, was an extremely taboo number. Especially after an outstanding painter, Leonardo da Vinci, who also appeared in the world of Lu Luxiu, painted the classic painting "The Last Supper," the Westerners' taboo of the number 13 directly reached its peak.
As a typical Westerner, Euphemia naturally understood this taboo.
Just by looking at the faintly visible black cloud above Euphemia's head, Ray Mingkai already knew what Euphemia's current mood was.
"Ahem. Uffi. In fact, you don't have to care so much. "Ray Mingkai coughed, and backhandedly sold out Makoto Ito and Lingshi, who had just drawn their numbers.
"Look. Uffi, Cheng and the others drew number 44! In East Asia, the number 4 symbolizes death. Not to mention, the number Cheng and the others have now drawn is 44. "
With that, Ray Mingkai spread out his hands and showed a worried look.
"No doubt. Compared to the number 13 we drew, Cheng and the others' numbers seem to be more ominous. "
Euphemia, who had a haze on her face, blinked her eyes, slightly looked up at Makoto Ito, who was also smiling helplessly, and her face seemed to improve a little.
However, Euphemia would not let go of the grudge.
"Kai. What about 13? What does this number symbolize in East Asia? "
Ray Mingkai was stunned, turned his eyes, and showed a mysterious smile.
"The number 13 is not regarded as an ominous number in East Asia. Instead, in the religious culture of East Asia, it has been given a variety of auspicious meanings. Moreover, in the modern language system of the Celestial Empire, the number 13 has been given a romantic meaning. "
"Romantic? Romantic meaning? "Euphemia's eyes flashed with doubts.
"That's right!" Ray Mingkai smiled and continued to act mysterious.
"If you want to know the answer, Uffi, why don't I tell you after we win this match?"
"As a prize for victory?" Euphemia blinked her eyes, and her pupils lit up again. She had been attracted by the riddle that Ray Mingkai had deliberately thrown out.
"Yes. What do you think? "
"Good! We'll definitely win this match! Even if Satan comes again, I will defeat him! "Euphemia suddenly waved her small fist with high fighting spirit.
Lei Mingkai was finally able to set his mind at ease.
Although Ray Mingkai was confident that he would win this match, he couldn't let Euphemia be defeated by this illusory and unknown 13.
The second round of the competition started on No.01, which was the individual performance match of Kawaguchi Mingren, who had drawn No.01.
That was right.
It was an individual performance match.
Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Kawaguchi Mingren easily defeated the enemy who had the advantage of the electromagnetic cannon in a few moves. He won and became the first winner of this round of the competition.
After Yazaka Jinsei and the others went on stage one after another, it was time for Ray Mingkai and Euphemia, who had drawn No.13, to go on stage.
Although Ray Mingkai had comforted Euphemia about the number 13, Euphemia was still a little nervous when she stepped on the Steel Pula platform.
"Uffi, don't be afraid. I'm here for you. "
Ray Mingkai patted Uffi's small hand and comforted her again. He then started to set up the GP base and let the Ferocious Cavalry in.
However …
Ray Mingkai controlled the Ferocious Cavalry and rushed into the arena. He landed next to the weapon cabinet that he had placed in the arena beforehand and opened it. He was stunned by what he saw inside the cabinet.
"This … What the hell is this?"
Inside the weapon cabinet that was covered with red cloth, there was a handle placed quietly.
The Ferocious Cavalry held it in his hand and waved it a few times. A faint light flashed as he waved it.
"Beam sword? This strength doesn't seem like a beam sword. "
Lei Mingkai furrowed his brows. For a moment, he couldn't recall what the light ribbons that the Ferocious Cavalry was shooting out were.
Moreover, the enemy wouldn't give him enough time to figure out what the handle in the Ferocious Cavalry's hand was.
"Boom!"
The air was torn apart at this moment.
Ray Mingkai pulled back the control ball in his right hand at lightning speed and let the Ferocious Cavalry dodge the cannon that came from the front.
In the smoke, Ray Mingkai saw an MS from Gao Da's ZZ — AMX-014 Flying Wolf. It was holding the huge Miga particle cannon with both hands and pointing it at the Ferocious Cavalry.
"Tsk! My luck is so good? "
The situation in front of him was clear with a glance.
The Ferocious Cavalry's weapon was a handle that he didn't know what it was for now.
The weapon in Violent Wolf's hands was a weapon that was even more powerful than his wife's Miga Particle Cannon.
"Zi!!"
The contestant controlling Flying Wolf didn't say anything. He simply pulled the trigger and locked onto the Ferocious Cavalry's figure. The Miga particle cannon in Flying Wolf's hand let out a sharp whistle.
"Kai! The enemy is about to fire! Dodge! "
Euphemia's expression was very ugly.
The current situation that the Ferocious Cavalry was facing made Euphemia unconsciously associate it with the curse of the unknown 13.
"Boom!"
Another dazzling beam of light.
However, under Ray Mingkai's control, the Ferocious Cavalry easily dodged Flying Wolf's attack.
"Weapon, only this handle … as well as close-range combat?"
Ray Mingkai glanced at the Ferocious Cavalry's weapon. Other than the handle that he didn't know what it was used for, there was nothing else. The first rule of this round was that the participating Steel Pula must remove all weapons equipped on it.
The method that the Ferocious Cavalry used to defeat the enemy, the enemy would naturally think of it as well. Thus, the moment the Ferocious Cavalry showed signs of launching an attack, Flying Wolf would immediately stop shooting and speed up to pull away from the Ferocious Cavalry.
"Tsk. Are they trying to drag the Ferocious Cavalry down? "
The Ferocious Cavalry launched several attacks, but they were all dodged by the enemy in time. The moment the Ferocious Cavalry's attack ended, the enemy would launch an attack.
Even though Ray Mingkai had a trick up his sleeve to prevent the enemy from seeing through the rhythm of the Ferocious Cavalry's attack, it still made the battle drag on.
"Shua!"
Suddenly, the Ferocious Cavalry's right hand shook and a faint light shot out. In the blink of an eye, the light wrapped around the trunk of a tree not far away.
Immediately after, the Ferocious Cavalry pulled and the tree that was wrapped around by the light snapped.
"Is that a light beam? Could it be the one used by Nobel Gao Da in Fighting G? "
At this moment, Ray Mingkai finally understood the use of the Ferocious Cavalry's controller.
However, even if that was the case, the other party was able to see through the intricacies of the Ferocious Cavalry when Lei Mingkai understood what the handle was.
Thus, Flying Wolf's attacks became even more ferocious.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
In order to suppress the Ferocious Cavalry's mobility, Flying Wolf did not even hesitate to give up on the Miga Particle Cannon's shooting mode. He used a burst mode to ensure the continuity of his firepower.
As more and more holes appeared beside the Ferocious Cavalry's feet, Flying Wolf's attacks became even more ferocious.
"Boom!"
The beam shot by Flying Wolf exploded in front of the Ferocious Cavalry at close range. While raising a cloud of dust, the Ferocious Cavalry's figure was drowned in the dust.
In the air, Flying Wolf, who had been chasing after the Ferocious Cavalry, subconsciously slowed down and began to patrol the surrounding area.
"Kai. Let me do it! "
All of a sudden.
When Ray Mingkai used this cloud of dust to hide the Ferocious Cavalry's tracks and attempted to launch a surprise attack, Euphemia suddenly passed through the virtual screen formed by the Pallavsky Particles and appeared behind Ray Mingkai.
"Uffi. Let me do it here. "
Although Ray Mingkai was very surprised at Euphemia's current actions, he still shook his head.
"No. I know how to use this weapon! Because, under the guidance of the court's teacher, I have danced the ribbon dance before … "
After saying that, Euphemia clenched her teeth and said with a red face, "In order to maintain my figure, my teacher required me to do the ribbon dance three to four times a week."
This time, Ray Mingkai stared blankly. At the same time, he subconsciously moved aside and let Euphemia control.
Then, Ray Mingkai who had regained his senses slightly shrugged his shoulders.
It seemed that the number 13 was quite a shock to Euphemia! So much so that Euphemia even mentioned her own training schedule.
However, he did not expect that the reason why Euphemia was able to maintain such a good figure was because she followed the instructions of the court's teacher and insisted on doing the ribbon dance.
Thinking until here, Ray Mingkai shook his head and threw these thoughts to the back of his head. He once again focused his attention on the competition.
According to his thinking, even if they lost this competition, it would not be a very serious matter. As long as they maintained their winning streak in the following competitions, they would still be able to enter the finals.
At this moment, Flying Wolf, who was completely unaware that the Ferocious Cavalry had already changed its controller, was still patrolling back and forth in the air, trying to find the Ferocious Cavalry's figure.
"Shua!"
The moment Flying Wolf turned around, a faint light suddenly tore through the dense forest below and wrapped around Flying Wolf's left leg in a flash.
"What?"
This sudden change caught the Flying Wolf's pilot off guard. He quickly pushed the Flying Wolf's thrusters to the maximum output.
However, at this moment, the faint light that was wrapped around Violent Wolf's left leg condensed into a light beam that flickered with a faint purple light, and began to quickly tighten.
"Ka!"
"Ka!"
As the light beam tightened, cracks appeared on Flying Wolf's left leg. It seemed that it would not be able to hold on any longer.
"Tsk! Eat this! "
Perhaps it was to protect its left leg, or perhaps it was to take advantage of the stalemate between the two sides, Flying Wolf wanted to use this subtle moment to defeat the Ferocious Cavalry in one fell swoop.
"Weng!"
Countless particles quickly condensed at the front of the Miga particle cannon in Flying Wolf's hands. An increasingly dazzling ball of light condensed in a few breaths of time.
"Die!"
"Boom!"
Under the roar of Flying Wolf's pilot, the beam that was even more terrifying than before tore through the void and headed straight towards the forest below, towards the end of the light beam.
The beam of light disappeared in an instant.
The world seemed to have become incomparably silent at this moment.
In the next second, the silence suddenly disappeared. What was left was the sound of the explosion that resounded through the audience, the dark clouds that rose into the sky, and the forest below that was quickly engulfed by the flames.
In the flickering flames, Flying Wolf's left leg was saved.
The light beam that almost caused Flying Wolf to lose its left leg disappeared at the moment of the explosion.
"Did it succeed?"
For some reason, Flying Wolf's pilot did not feel the ease of victory, nor the joy of victory. On the contrary, the ominous feeling in his heart became more and more intense.
"Wow!"
The clamor from the audience made his heart tighten, and he subconsciously controlled the Flying Wolf to perform an emergency maneuver. However, he discovered that the Flying Wolf that he should have been able to freely control seemed to have sunk into mud, unable to move forward even a little bit more.
"What's going on?"
When Violent Wolf's controller turned around, he saw that the Ferocious Cavalry, who should have been blasted into the sky by the Miga particle cannon, had unknowingly appeared behind Violent Wolf. The Ferocious Cavalry's beam belt was tightly wrapped around Violent Wolf's body, making it unable to move at all.
"The number 13? Today, I will give you this ominous number!! " Euphemia, whose hands were firmly placed on the control ball, focused her gaze on Flying Wolf, and said in a suppressed voice.
Then, in the desperate eyes of Flying Wolf's pilot, Euphemia gently pulled her right hand, and the Ferocious Cavalry returned.
The light beam that was flickering with a beautiful and mysterious purple light fluttered freely in the air, and under the beautiful trajectory of the light beam, was the countless wreckage that was cut off from Flying Wolf's body and scattered to the ground like petals.
"Boom! “
This was the death knell of Flying Wolf, and also the ending bell of this competition.
"The battle is over! Ray Mingkai, Euphemia wins! "
Looking at the dissipating light of the Pallavsky particle, Euphemia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, without waiting for Ray Mingkai to speak, she lowered her head and quickly walked down the Steel Pula battle platform. She didn't respond to Ray Mingkai's call at all, and just kept running out of the venue.
And Ray Mingkai, with a face full of confusion, recalled the Ferocious Cavalry, and followed closely behind, all the way out.
This scene made Fellini and the others who were watching on the sidelines laugh.
"What a rare sight! I didn't expect Guy and Miss Uffi to make such a small farce. "Fellini touched his chin in amusement.
"Maybe, maybe, this is the fun between lovers!" Yazaka, who was a severe unrequited love sufferer, began to fall in love with a certain girl.
"Uh. Guy and Euphemia will be fine, right? "Makoto Ito looked left and right, and carefully asked.
Who knew, Fellini patted his shoulder.
"Sincerity. This matter, when you fall in love, you will understand! "
"Huh?"
