Chapter 131: The Gale Rages Onward! A Well-Deserved Title!

It’s a massacre!

If we’re to say that *Titanfall*’s performance in the gaming scene before the fall of the Titan was like the peerless Lü Bu on his red rabbit steed in *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*, galloping across the land, then the release of the God-level stage, Trial by Fire, is like giving Lü Bu a Ronin Titan.

The release of this perfectly integrated stage, even in just half an hour, has already led to media outlets writing — The appearance of *Titanfall* has undoubtedly raised the ceiling of the gaming industry to a new level.

And!

This kind of improvement is unlike the previous “second-generation FPS.”

Because the second-generation FPS can be replicated. Any other manufacturer, upon seeing its huge impact, can choose to imitate and learn from it.

But the success of *Titanfall* is unrepeatable.

Because it not only requires designers to have the most acute sense of the gaming market, perfectly understanding the player’s psychology and knowing what players need.

It also places extremely high demands on the designer’s intuition.

That awe-inspiring stage design, ingenious gameplay, deeply moving storyline, and perfectly timed linkages.

Everything has to come together in the right place at the right time, with the right people.

This is an unrepeatable success, a milestone in the history of Chinese game development.

Players agree, rivals agree, even Xun Teng has to admit it.

It’s really too hard to copy.

It’s like a top student’s homework, even if you copy it verbatim, you might not get it right.

And the feeling of a game is so subtle, sometimes a slight error can lead to a huge difference.

It’s possible that you just missed a decimal point in the top student’s homework, and the final result would be completely different.

This is a revolution in the gaming industry, a collective celebration for players!

Immediately!

Countless players placed orders, saying that even if it’s just for *Titanfall*, they have to buy an ArtTour X2!

Of course!

There are also some players who are not afraid of trouble, who choose to exploit a loophole —

Now that *Titanfall* is fully unlocked, ordering an ArtTour X2 now will allow you to immediately experience the complete game content.

A six-hour feast!

Buying an ArtTour X2 then returning it is like renting equipment to watch a movie.

Although!

There are very few players who have this idea (after all, it’s a lot of trouble to send it back and forth).

But this practice, to a certain extent, led to the emergence of a later data that was extremely abstract and absurd.

…

Finally!

As the last note of the *Pacific Rim* theme song faded away!

Dai Xiaomei, who was chasing after the interior of the airport, saw Sam’s Titan, directing his troops to transport the Ark to the huge Heavenly Dragon Star ship!

“Gu Sheng, you old rogue, you can’t run away!”

Tut-tut-tut-tut——

Chi-chi——

Machine guns and cluster missiles fired, all firepower unleashed.

Dai Xiaomei wanted to keep the Ark.

But Sam, outside the ship’s hatch, raised a force field shield, blocking all of BT’s attacks.

He even waved to Dai Xiaomei as the hatch closed:

“Goodbye, great hero.”

Then, he ordered over the radio: “Viper, I’ll leave these shrimp to you.”

He said!

The Heavenly Dragon Star’s hatch closed, the huge hull roared into the air, flying towards the Space Fold Weapon Base 200 kilometers away.

“Grass!”

Dai Xiaomei watched helplessly as the Heavenly Dragon Star flew away, and she couldn’t help but curse.

Then, she heard Commander Briggs’ voice come through on the radio:

“I saw the Heavenly Dragon Star take off, it’s okay, Ironclad, you’ve done your best, Lastimosa didn’t misjudge you,”

“Get ready to board the ship, we’re going after them, they can’t escape!!!”

As Briggs’ order rang out.

The linked stage also came to an end, after a brief space-time crossover, everyone returned to their own game, as the only Ironclad in the Rebel Army who had perfected his synergy with the Titan, they chased after the Heavenly Dragon Star.

The plot has reached this point!

The climax is building!

Everyone knows that they must intercept the Ark before it reaches the Space Fold Weapon Base, which is capable of destroying entire planets.

The Ark is now a bomb.

Once the Space Fold Weapon is activated.

The billions of lives on Harmony Star will be wiped out in an instant.

And all that the Rebel Army has done will be in vain.

Lastimosa, Anderson… and the blood of countless Rebel soldiers will have all been shed in vain.

“Copy that!!!”

The moment they said “Copy that”.

The screen gradually darkened.

The Rebel fleet approached, the screen gradually went dark…

In the barrage, there was nothing but praise!

‘This stage is too awesome!’

‘Ascend——to——Heaven——!’

‘This stage must be played with friends! It’s so good it’s exploding!’

‘Ah ah ah ah so hard ah… need friends…’

‘I can actually play by myself, but the overall experience isn’t as good as playing with friends’

‘The more people, the harder it is, the more grand the scene’

‘What the fuck—— I just finished this stage, it’s so awesome, I tried it with six Flame Cores, they’re collectively unstoppable’

‘What, a tactical genius’

‘Want to see how six Ronin Titans fight’

‘Hahahahahahaha, I’ll try it with my friends later, it’s definitely going to be fun’

‘Are you guys the Titanhood Delinquents?’

‘Recommend changing the BGM to—— I charge through the world, leaving everyone in awe!’

‘Can’t do it? Can’t do it, then don’t do it! (Sword Core activation)’

‘That’s the vibe…’

‘It’s hard to imagine the mental state of some players…’

‘…’

The viewers were discussing enthusiastically!

The screen lit up again!

On the full-speed ship, Dai Xiaomei held onto the railing and looked out!

She saw!

Countless Rebel fleets, at this moment, were chasing after the Heavenly Dragon Star in front of them!

Commander Briggs’ voice echoed through the radio!

“This is Commander Briggs! All Rebel fleets, listen up!”

“The Heavenly Dragon Star is carrying the Ark, escaping towards the Space Fold Weapon Base 250 kilometers away!”

“We must crush them before they get there, and retrieve the Ark!”

Wow, wow, wow——!!!

Standing in the midst of the magnificent fleet, Dai Xiaomei’s uncooled blood was now boiling even more!

Gu Sheng truly understands what players want!

After a tense and fierce battle, the classic chase scene unfolds!

But this time!

It’s not simply chasing cars in an action movie!

Instead, the battlefield is moved to the sky!

An aerial chase!

As the commander’s orders were issued, the Rebel fleets responded one after another!

【Flying Eagle Two, copy that!】

【Purple Owl, copy that, I will provide a support platform!】

【Enemy attack squadron spotted! Enemy attack squadron spotted!】

【Commander: Permission to fire! Eliminate target!】

Swoosh-swoosh——!!!

Boom boom boom boom——!!!

Shipborne missiles launched, the heavy sound of cannons echoed.

The aerial battle begins.

Dai Xiaomei also took up a single-soldier guided missile, aiming at an IMC attack aircraft.

Swoosh—BOOM!!!

The missile shot out forcefully, blowing the target attack aircraft to smithereens.

“Woohoo!”

Dai Xiaomei cheered:

“Awesome!”

However!

Just as their ship accelerated, preparing to break into the Heavenly Dragon Star and seize the Ark!

Suddenly!

They heard a terrified voice over the radio!

【Deepwater One: Unidentified high-speed object detected! Request confirmation! Request confirmation!】

【Deepwater Two: It’s at your 11 o’clock! Damn it, it’s too fast! I can’t lock onto it. Careful——!!!】

BOOM!!!

【Deepwater Two: Headquarters, headquarters! Deepwater One has been destroyed! Request support! Request——】

BOOM!!!

Two loud explosions followed!

【BT: Enemy Titan detected!】

What?!

Dai Xiaomei was taken aback!

Titan?!

She looked up!

She saw an enemy Titan, like a fierce hawk, piercing through them from behind!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh——!

Missiles kept firing from its shoulders, and in an instant, flames shot up from the Rebel fleet, which had been in a favorable position, and explosions occurred one after another!

“What the hell!!!”

Dai Xiaomei felt a shiver run down her spine!

That’s… a flying Titan!

You know!

From the start of the game until now, no Titan has ever been able to fly in the air!

Even her own Beast components and the IMC’s North Star Titan can only briefly hover in the air!

But this Titan!

It can deftly maneuver through the air, and it’s incredibly powerful! What kind of monster is this?!

In a daze!

The flying Titan also spotted them!

【Viper: Clear vision, target locked】

He said!

Viper spread his arms wide!

Chi-chi-chi-chi-chi——!!!

Countless rocket missiles rained down on Dai Xiaomei’s ship!

“What the hell are you doing, you bastard——”

BOOM!!!

It didn’t even give Dai Xiaomei a chance to scream!

The missile swarm slammed into the ship.

The intense blast wave sent her and BT flying through the air!

Dai Xiaomei flailed wildly in the air, the fear she had felt when falling from the signal tower overcame her again.

What’s worse, BT couldn’t catch her this time.

Because at this moment, BT was in front of her, also falling at high speed!

At this crucial moment!

The radio crackled to life:

【Buck: I’m here, kid, don’t worry!】

He said!

An attack aircraft swooped down!

Accelerating past them as they fell, it steadily caught Dai Xiaomei and BT below!

Thud!

Slamming onto Buck’s aircraft, Dai Xiaomei felt a rush of blood to her head, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But thankfully, her life was saved.

The gale rages on!

Dai Xiaomei stood up again on top of the aircraft, braving the wind.

This is so fucking exciting!

With extraordinary imagination, Gu Sheng has maximized the excitement of this aerial chase battle!

And at this time, the radio crackled again —

【Commander: Cooper Ironclad! The IMC’s Malta frigate has been blocking us from getting close to the Heavenly Dragon Star! I need an Ironclad to break into the Malta frigate and take out its defenses!】

“Copy that!”

Dai Xiaomei shouted into the wind:

“I think the Ironclad you were going to assign to BT could handle this job! I choose him! You let him come!!!”

Pfft——

The moment she spoke, the live stream erupted in laughter!

‘You’re really so stubborn’

‘The leader says east, I say west, the leader says chase the dog, I chase the chicken’

‘You’re so fucking cheeky’

‘Oppose workplace PUA! Starting with Daidai!’

‘Hahahaha, that’s hilarious…’

‘Commander: You goddamn (pointing)’

‘You don’t want to be a formal Ironclad anymore, do you?’

‘I bet Briggs is dumbfounded, he didn’t expect anyone to be so cheeky’

‘The other Ironclads: What the hell, why aren’t you following the script?’

‘…’

Amidst the laughter!

Briggs said helplessly: “Cooper Ironclad! You’re the closest to Malta now! Take advantage of the fact that Viper hasn’t noticed you yet, break in quickly! It’s all up to you!”

“Ugh——”

Hearing this, Dai Xiaomei was delighted:

“You should’ve said so earlier! Saving Harmony Star, I’m duty-bound!”

She said!

Dai Xiaomei strode forward, reaching the front of the aircraft’s top:

“How do we get in?”

Before the words left her mouth!

They heard another aircraft’s voice over the radio: “This is 6-4 aircraft, Ironclad commander, I can get closer to Malta to provide you with a landing spot!”

Dai Xiaomei:?

Then, BT made a gesture that she was very familiar with, but extremely unwilling to see — one hand pointed forward, the other pulled back, palm open.

Dai Xiaomei:??

【BT: You got this, Cooper】

Dai Xiaomei:???

Are you guys fucking with me?

Did you rehearse this beforehand?

“How… how come you’re addicted to throwing me again…”

Dai Xiaomei was heartbroken, and like being put on trial, she slowly climbed onto BT’s palm.

She sighed:

“Oh well, I guess if you throw me a couple more times, I’ll get used to it.”

Sitting on BT’s palm, Dai Xiaomei casually asked, just like before: “BT, are you sure?”

BT turned his head, winked at her, then clenched his fist!

【BT: Trust me】

Whoosh——!!!

Aerial mobile throw!

Dai Xiaomei, like a cannonball, slid out a perfect arc in the air!

As she said.

This time, she seemed to have adapted more, she didn’t pull out.

Maybe after a couple more throws, she’ll be completely used to it.

Thud!

Landing steadily on the 6-4 aircraft, Dai Xiaomei let out an excited scream!

The fighter jet also rolled to the side, quickly approaching the Malta frigate!

【6-4: Cooper! I will get as close to the tail of the Malta as possible! You need to jump in the air, board the ship!】

“Copy that!”

Dai Xiaomei took half a step back, arching her body!

The jet rapidly approached the Malta frigate!

【6-4: Three! Two! One!】

【6-4: Now! Jump!】

Thump!

In one swift movement!

Dai Xiaomei ran and slid forward!

In the eyes of everyone who couldn’t believe what they were seeing, she spun in the air like a ballerina, then her jump pack shot flames, propelling her with a secondary jump.

Then, she extended one leg forward, retracted the other, and got back into the ready position for a slide.

Seeing this, all the viewers held their breath!

Yes!

At this crucial moment!

Dai Xiaomei actually gathered her courage again and used the slide-spin jump that had given her painful memories back in the training grounds!

And this time!

Swoosh——

With pinpoint accuracy, she landed perfectly on the Malta’s deck, in an incredibly awesome posture!

‘OHHHHHHHH——!!!’

At this moment, the whole place erupted!

‘She did it! What the hell! She did it!’

‘Awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome——!’

‘Old woman, you’re awesome!’

‘Holy shit, that slide-jump from the sky is so fucking awesome!’

‘I’m speechless, awesome!’

‘Amazing! (Voice cracking)’

‘…’

With the cheers of the viewers in the live stream!

Dai Xiaomei walked along the edge of the ship, the flamethrower in her hand spitting fire!

This simple and brutal boarding maneuver from medieval pirates completely caught the IMC soldiers on the Malta frigate by surprise!

They were caught off guard and rushed into battle, but how could they stand against such a powerful Ironclad!

Dodging and weaving, Dai Xiaomei pulled the trigger, taking down IMC soldiers one after another!

Moving in stealth mode, Dai Xiaomei was like a ghost, appearing and disappearing, making the enemy troops dance to her tune!

As she walked along the edge of the ship, Dai Xiaomei seemed to see her former self again, amidst the splatter of blood and fire —

【Now, I’m a rifleman in the Rebel Army, fighting for the freedom of the border】

【The day I become an Ironclad is still far away, but when I become an Ironclad, I hope to —】

【Earn my title!】

Bang!

With the last bullet from the flamethrower firing out forcefully!

The defenses in the control room were all eliminated by her!

One person slaughters a whole ship!

From a rifleman who was so terrified by the rain of bullets that she dared not move at the beginning.

Now she walks on the edges of the ship, with agility and composure, she defeats the enemy and becomes a pillar of the battle, standing alone.

Dai Xiaomei doesn’t know if she can be considered a true Ironclad now.

But there’s no doubt that she didn’t let Lao Shi down, nor did she disappoint BT’s unconditional trust in her.

Clang!

She pulled out her data sword.

Crack!

She plunged the data sword into the control panel of the Malta frigate, Dai Xiaomei piloted the ship, making the Malta frigate slowly approach the Heavenly Dragon Star.

And at this time!

Thump!

BT also jumped off Buck’s aircraft, his massive frame shattered the glass of the bridge.

“Oh—BT——”

Dai Xiaomei was speechless at the Ironclad’s recklessness, and she chuckled as she brushed away the broken glass that had splashed onto her.

She wanted to say something to BT, but she found that he winked at her, then gave her a thumbs-up:

【Good job, Cooper】

“… Thanks.”

Dai Xiaomei smiled brightly and gave BT a thumbs-up in response.

However!

Just as the two were still bantering!

Whoosh—

Suddenly, from under the deck at the bow, a scarlet Titan flew up, hovering in the air, murderous intent radiating from it!

【I’m in position, Ironclad, your journey ends here】

【I command the sky, and you have nowhere to hide】

【Nor anywhere to go!】

Dai Xiaomei’s expression hardened!

It’s him.

The only Titan in the entire game that can maneuver and bomb from the air —

Viper.
