Without even communicating, the two tacitly agreed to turn their spears on Cheng Yi, intending to work together to eliminate him first before considering their next arrangement.
So while Lin Dong fired a miniature laser cannon at Cheng Yi’s mecha, Lu Chen chose the melee mode, intending to use his superb mecha control skills to put pressure on Cheng Yi.
If the three parties in the battle were really equal in strength, a situation of one against two would obviously be very unfavorable to Cheng Yi.
However, Lin Dong and Lu Chen were able to sense the crisis so keenly and, at the same time, quickly made up their minds to join forces. This already showed that the three parties were not on equal footing.
This unequal strength was due to both the SS-grade spiritual potion An Yan had created and the rapid increase in Cheng Yi’s strength during the recent period.
To be precise, this increase in strength began when he first took the transformation potion.
However, only Cheng Yi and An Yan knew about this, and the others did not. So everyone subconsciously gave credit to An Yan when they saw Cheng Yi facing the combined attack of the other two while remaining at ease and even slightly gaining the upper hand.
Viewer 1: Oh, my God! This is the first time I’ve realized how much An Yan’s exquisite potion-making ability has improved Cheng Yi’s strength! This is unbelievable!
Viewer 2: Wait! Who told me that these three bosses were equal in strength? Who told me they were evenly matched?
Viewer 3: When I see this match, I can’t help but think that it’s really important to find a good partner!
Viewer 4: I’m an NC fan of An Yan from now on!
Viewer 5: Hey, if only An Yan could break up with Cheng Yi, I might be able to team up with An Yan in the Academy Mecha Competition next year.
Viewer 6: Stop dreaming upstairs. Even if the two do break up, it would be your turn. Are you ignoring my existence?
Viewer 7: Boss Cheng Yi: The two upstairs, accept my challenge.
Viewer 8: Why do I feel like this stan is being well played out by you guys? ……………
The viewers in Cheng Yi and An Yan’s live streams were able to discuss these topics so easily because the situation on the field was very favorable for them. So, the viewers naturally felt no pressure and were even in a relaxed, happy mood.
But the situation was different for the live streams of the other two.
Lu Chen Fan 1: Holy shit! What’s going on here? Boss Lu Chen has teamed up with the Lin siblings. How come he hasn’t killed Cheng Yi yet?
Lin siblings fan 2: Is Cheng Yi on a roll? Brother Lin’s attack speed is obviously very fast. How could he have dodged it? I absolutely don’t believe it!
Fan 3 of both families: I’m going to report this. Can’t the officials see such obvious cheating on Cheng Yi’s side? Or are the officials covering up on purpose?
Lu Chen Fan 4: It must be because those two Lin family members are too weak, dragging down my Lu Chen. Otherwise, the situation couldn’t be like this!
Lin family fans 5: Get lost upstairs! It’s obvious that your Lu Chen is a spicy chicken. How dare you put the blame on our sister Lin?
Lu Chen Fan 6: Oh, pushing the pot onto your sister Lin? Maybe you didn’t see how bad Lin Wan’s performance was in the previous competition, so you don’t know how many pots she’s carrying. Do you still need others to push the pot onto her?
Lin siblings fan 7: Don’t talk nonsense here; my sister Lin is not someone you can just slander! And, if you ask me, Lu Chen is the one who is truly too weak, because how else could he not even find a competition partner?
………
Then these two fanbases, which were not as repelled before, got into another melee and almost brought the roof of the live broadcast room down.
But no matter how much these two fans argued, they couldn’t change the situation on the field.
After just ten minutes of fierce battle, the Lin siblings’ mecha damage level had risen to 77.25%, while Lu Chen’s had also risen to 68.79%.
The damage to Cheng Yi and An Yan was now at 49.36%.
Compared to the damage levels of the three parties, one could imagine how complicated Lin Dong and Lu Chen’s feelings were at this moment.
They decided to join forces with the intention of finishing off Cheng Yi as soon as possible, and had never thought that they might still lose to him even after that.
It wasn’t that they were proud and arrogant. They had carefully studied Cheng Yi’s performance and assessed his strength before. In their conclusion, although Cheng Yi’s strength could not be underestimated, it was not to the extent that they would be afraid of him.
That’s why they thought they could send Cheng Yi out of the competition if they worked together.
But it seemed that the truth was far from what they had expected.
They gnashed their teeth when they realized that Cheng Yi had deliberately hidden his strength in the previous rounds. This guy was really too sinister!
But this thought was just a flash. They didn’t have the heart to think about such irrelevant issues in the midst of battle.
What mattered most now was how to defeat Cheng Yi.
Losing to Cheng Yi in a one-on-one match would be a shame, but losing after teaming against Cheng Yi would be a real embarrassment!
But they had exhausted all attack and defence methods that they should be tried and the situation had still come to this point. How else could they turn it around?
With his face as heavy as water, Lu Chen went through all sorts of ideas before he finally made up his mind. There was only one way left!
Although he was not sure whether this decision was right or wrong and what the outcome would be, it was the only method if he wanted to change the situation!
With his mind made up, Lu Chen immediately connected to Lin Dong’s mecha communication.
As soon as the communication was connected, the only things that caught Lu Chen’s eyes were Lin Dong, who was full of frustration, and Lin Wan, who was jumping up and down in anger in the co-pilot’s seat.
Lu Chen was disdainful of the two people’s behavior, but he still spoke quickly, “Listen to me for all the next actions.”
He used a commanding tone, with no intention of discussing it with the two.
Such a tone made Lin Dong very dissatisfied, but Lu Chen’s firm and slightly hostile eyes made him silently shut up.
He no longer had the slightest hope now. Instead of continuing to passively wait for death, he might as well trust Lu Chen for once. Maybe the situation would really take a turn for the better?
But Lin Wan was not as good-tempered as he was. She was already so angry that she was jumping on her feet. Hearing Lu Chen order them in such a tone made Lin Wan explode: “We are helping you deal with Cheng Yi, so it’s fine if you are not grateful, but why are you talking to us in such a tone? And why should we listen to you? ”
Lu Chen gave Lin Wan an icy sweep of his gaze and then looked at Lin Dong, obviously waiting for his answer.
Lin Wan, who was being ignored for the second time, was so angry that her face turned red: “How can you be so rude? Can’t you see that… ”
She was interrupted before she could finish her sentence. It wasn’t Lu Chen who interrupted her, but her brother, Lin Dong.
“Take it easy for now, this is not the time to argue.” Lin Dong’s voice sounded gentle and carried a distinctly soothing note.
But this was the first time that Lin Wan had been interrupted by her brother, and it made her even more furious than before. She was extremely annoyed and said with disbelief, “Big brother, how can you help him speak? How can you… ” However, her words were once again interrupted, this time by Lu Chen: “Stupid woman, if you don’t want to die, then shut up!”
Lu Chen’s voice was incomparably cold, and his eyes were intensely hostile. Lin Wan was so stunned that she forgot to open her mouth to continue yelling.
Lin Dong was unhappy with Lu Chen’s behavior of being mean to his sister. But their mecha damage level had already soared to 91.37%, so he could only force down his temper: “Okay, I’ll listen to your next arrangements.”
Lu Chen immediately ordered, “Head to the target planet and land on its surface.”
Lin Dong was puzzled by this arrangement and wanted to ask why, but Lu Chen had already cut off the communication and acted at the same time. He could only suppress the doubts in his mind and follow.
Lin Wan, who had recovered, immediately began to vent her frustration. But Lin Dong did not immediately comfort her.
Lin Wan felt wronged, but no one paid attention to her. After venting for a while with no response, Lin Wan had no choice but to shut up in frustration.
Cheng Yi and An Yan did not know that the other two mechs had established a brief arrangement. All he saw were two mechas suddenly running away in the middle of the battle.
An Yan, who was still earnestly making spiritual potions, also looked confused. “What’s wrong with them? Don’t they want to fight anymore? ”
Cheng Yi smiled lightly, “I guess they are going to the target planet.”
An Yan blinked in confusion, “Why are they suddenly going there?”
An Yan had been making spiritual potions and had no experience in combat, so he did not know how far the other two mechas’ damage had been raised to.
So he only found the sudden departure of the two mechas strange.
Compared to his simple thoughts, the viewers in the live broadcast room thought a little bit more.
