After leaving the ring, Snow drove the motorcycle and sped all the way. He also scattered some "spider beacons" that he had made before the match along the way.
The appearance of these beacons was similar to mechanical spiders, and they could indeed crawl like spiders. They were very small in size and moved very quickly. Even on a bare concrete floor, one had to look carefully to notice them. If they were in a place with weeds or sand … then most of them could only be discovered by special "vision" abilities.
This … was also one of the advantages of a player who specialized in workmanship. Some of the permanent gadgets that could be put into a backpack could be made and brought in before the match. They could take them out and use them immediately.
As for the use of these beacons, we'll talk about it later. Let's talk about Snow first …
He drove for more than ten kilometers. Of course, in terms of time, only ten minutes had passed.
Then, he saw the "border" of the battlefield.
Although the "border barrier" was transparent, when the sun shone on it, it would refract a variety of halos. So, this invisible wall could be seen from far away.
Soon, Snow came to the side of the barrier, stopped the motorcycle, and reached out to touch the transparent force field. Then … he received the relevant system prompt.
Since he had confirmed that he could not widen the distance any further, Snow did not delay any further. He immediately flipped over and got off the motorcycle, activating the [Construct Summoning Skill — Cybertron Warrior].
As the name implied, this skill could summon a Transformer.
Seeing this, did you think that characters like Optimus Prime and Megatron were about to appear?
People who thought this way … were obviously too young.
For warriors like Optimus Prime and Shockwave, they had to be at least Grade-A and had certain special conditions or skills that consumed a lot of energy to summon them. For characters like Megatron and Six-Faced Beast, they had to be summoned with Grade-S skills. As for things like the Great Emperor of the Universe and Heavenly Lord Yuanshi … Just think about it and don't think too much about it.
Right now, Snow's skill was only a B-grade double specialization skill. The so-called "Cybertron Warrior" was actually just a random warrior-type Cybertron person summoned.
However, because he had equipped the passive skill [Craftsman's Spirit], the skill's effect had increased. So, in a few cases, he could randomly summon warriors like Steel Whip and Flying Fire.
Creak, creak, creak, creak —
Accompanied by a strange sound of transformation, an ordinary Cybertron warrior appeared in front of Snow. It seemed that his luck today was just so-so, as he did not summon a character with a name.
But it didn't matter. He hadn't planned on having this character fight in the first place.
The advantage of this half-machine, half-summoning skill creation was that it didn't require the caster to spend time and energy to "build" it like pure machine creation (such as the motorcycle just now). It could be immediately summoned by taking out the consumables mentioned in the skill description.
Once the Cybertan stood still, Snow immediately gave the order to "dig a hole", and Snow himself … began to take out various materials from his bag.
The two of them worked in sync, and their efficiency was very high. Not long after, the tall Cybertron warrior dug a deep vertical pit that was similar to a "well". Snow also used [Synthesis — Universal Parts] and [Synthesis — Special Parts] to prepare some basic materials.
Then, Snow activated the [Armor Transformation] skill.
[Name: Armor Transformation]
Skill Card Attribute: Active, Permanent
Skill Type: Machine
Effect: Allows you to undergo a cool armor transformation that lasts for 20 seconds (Cooldown Time: 2 hours)]
Consumption: 200 Stamina Points, a pile of metal or machine specialization creations that weigh no less than your own body weight
Learning Requirement: General Mastery A, Machine Mastery C
Remark: After transformation, your strength, speed, and endurance will increase or decrease according to the materials used for your transformation. The duration of the transformation is theoretically unlimited, unless you take off your armor voluntarily or release any transformation skills again.
Please note: This is not the kind of cartoon that uses a repeated scene for a season. Your transformation process can be interrupted by any external force other than yourself.]
After the skill was activated, background music started to play from somewhere …
Then, Snow levitated on the spot, waiting for the pieces of "armor parts" that changed their shapes in the white light to cover his body one by one. During this process, every time a part "landed" on his body, there would be a "ping" sound effect. Snow's body would also involuntarily change his posture to match this "transformation".
The six teammates who were watching the battle from the spectator space (the rectangular spectator container would focus on the team members. When the players left the initial battle area, the container would quickly teleport to the sky above them or to other suitable spectator positions. At the same time, the situation of the enemy players would be displayed on a small split-screen on one of the walls of the container) were already numb to this.
After all, they had played with Snow for a month, so they were already used to this embarrassing transformation.
However, the members of the enemy team were shocked.
The six friends from the [Super Monster Team] watched Snow complete a transformation scene that was commonly seen in cartoons from the 1980s and 1990s on the split-screen in the spectator space. From the sound effects to the movements, it was extremely awkward. The weirdest thing was … after the transformation, Snow still had no intention of returning to the battle. Instead, he continued to "construct" in this transformed state.
The transformation was just a preparatory work. In order to be able to "work underground," he made himself this armor. After he was done, he activated the [Construction Skill — Fantasy Machinery] and started to build the missile silo.
Similar to the [Construction Skill — King of the Mountain Road], the special effect of this skill was not very overpowered or weak. However, its degree of freedom and potential were very high … To put it bluntly, the user's wisdom determined the upper limit of its performance.
Snow was obviously a user with a lot of imagination. His battle tactics were not only unexpected, but they were also effective.
In the transformed state, he only spent five or six minutes to build the basic facilities needed for the launch. Then, he activated the stronger [Construction Skill — Sub-Deity Machinery] and started to build the missile.
At the same time, Lei Dewang was still sitting in the ring …
Lei Dewang was also puzzled. He had been waiting for twenty minutes, but there was no movement around him. There were no signs that his opponent would come back.
Logically speaking, after such a long time, his opponent should have been judged as "AFKing" and started to receive all kinds of sanctions. However, his opponent was a member of the Underworld Frontline after all. Lei Dewang's heart was still uneasy.
After thinking about it, he decided … to leave.
Lei Dewang was not stupid. He would not chase in the direction that his opponent had escaped in. He already knew that his opponent was a player who specialized in machinery. He did not want to step on an explosive halfway and suddenly die.
Therefore, he chose a roundabout route and wanted to take a detour in that direction.
In all fairness, there was no problem with his response. At least from his point of view, it was considered thorough.
Just like that, Lei Dewang used a jogging state that did not consume any stamina and carefully took a detour in the direction that Snow had escaped in. However, with this speed … there was no doubt that he would not be able to get rid of Snow's "Spider Beacon".
After another ten minutes or so, Lei Dewang had already run about two kilometers. However, because he was running in a roundabout way and not in a straight line towards Snow, the distance between the two of them had only shortened by about one kilometer.
Just as Lei Dewang was thinking about whether he should increase his speed slightly, he suddenly saw something …
Under the bright and beautiful sky, in the wilderness where the scenery was monotonous, a black dot suddenly appeared in mid-air, and it was getting bigger and bigger … It was hard not to notice it even if he did not want to.
"Hmm?" When Lei Dewang first saw that thing, he felt that something was wrong. Therefore, he quickly stopped and raised the weapon in his hand, ready to block it. "Could it be a super long-range hidden weapon?"
As the black dot gradually approached, his expression also slowly changed.
"Wait … Wait …" A few seconds later, Lei Dewang could not help but mumble to himself, "How big is this thing?"
Not long after, the black dot became a "black pillar", and the details of its appearance became clearer.
"It can't be …" After seeing the flying object clearly, Lei Dewang's back was hunched, and his neck was slightly stretched forward. His face had an expression as if he had just swallowed a mouthful of Chinese goldthread. He muttered, "This doesn't make sense … It must be an illusion!"
This self-deceiving thought did not last long, because the missile that Snow shot over landed a few seconds later.
A missile was not a bow and arrow. It did not need to (and was very difficult to) hit the target. It only needed to ensure that the target was within its killing range when it exploded. And Lei Dewang … was undoubtedly within the killing range of the missile at this moment.
His real-time coordinates, movement route, movement speed … were all under Snow's surveillance. By calculating these data together with the speed of the missile, it was easy to choose a suitable shooting range. And when the missile neared the area where Lei Dewang was, those spider beacons could be used to guide the missile on the ground, as much as possible to lead the missile to the target's side to maximize its power.
In other words … Even if Lei Dewang immediately realized that the black dot in the sky was a missile and tried to escape, with his speed … he would not be able to escape this attack.
Boom!
There was an explosion.
[Construct — Deity Machine] was an A-grade skill that required a large amount of normal materials and a small number of special materials to activate. Factoring in the time required for construction, the additional abilities of the user, and other variables, the upper limit of this skill was very scary.
Even if the one standing here today was the real Lei Dewang (the first monster in the Ottle series to be set as "especially strong"), he would be killed in one shot, let alone a player with more than 70 hidden points …
Thus, Underworld Frontline's first round of S3's vanguard battle ended with the enemy team members being vaporized along with the soil within a radius of a few hundred meters before they could even make a single move.
