Capítulo 1157: Chapter 923: Double-faced Buddha
From now on, Jixing Academy is the true victor.
It’s not a victory of competition, but a strategic victory.
From the mont Lei Zhe replaced Remington, all previously negotiated conditions were automatically activated.
In the dark passageway…
Remington stopped halfway through, lifting his head to look at a dark silhouette ahead, silently nodding, and pressed a button on his wrist.
A recessed groove covered by a tal plate popped open on the wall beside him.
The shadow in the darkness curled its lips into a smile, quietly watching Remington walk into the recess, then the tal plate closed again.
From now on, he was the only one in the corridor—the Four Wild Beasts from Bonar College, Lei Zhe!
Lei Zhe casually fastened his combat helt, walked down the corridor, heading towards the readiness hall.
“Please choose your combat cha.”
The system’s voice sounded, while a giant arched light screen was projected into the air, listing over 1800 different cha miniatures.
However, Lei Zhe did not even glance at them, simply saying:
“Double-faced Buddha.”
He didn’t pause for even a second as he spoke.
“Selection of A-class cha [Double-faced Buddha] successful, please stand in the pilot waiting circle.”
Wearing Jixing Academy’s pilot suit, Lei Zhe calmly stood within the yellow circle, quietly watching as the golden cha slowly erged into view from the open hoist channel.
The cha was 20 ters tall, its head bizarrely smooth like an ancient Buddha’s head, smiling benevolently forward, giving off an impression of kindness at first glance.
But upon closer inspection, it wasn’t hard to spot a shallow black line at the center of the cha’s head, running from the top all the way to the bottom.
When the cha rotated and ascended with the platform, the scene behind the black line was fully revealed.
The back of the cha was completely covered in a deep night-like black.
Most terrifyingly, the back of the cha’s head wasn’t armor, nor decorative, but a pure black Buddha’s face!
However, this Buddha’s face compared to its initial appearance was devoid of any kindness, seemingly embodying all human evils, nacingly baring four tusks.
The only entirely golden part of the cha was the oversized Buddha beads around its neck, each bead with a diater over 1.5 ters, nine in total, each inscribed with unique patterns.
Lei Zhe looked up at the [Double-faced Buddha] standing in front of him, softly exhaling a breath.
“The greater the difference between the cha used and one’s own specialty, the less suspicious it appears… how long has it been since I last saw you… Double-faced Buddha.”
The circle beneath his feet transford into a hoisting platform, elevating him 15 ters into the air, then stepping into the cockpit door beneath the neck.
As the door closed, a strange scene unfolded as the entire cha turned entirely gold.
The golden Buddha’s head now bore a gleaming smile.
The only unchanged part was the black face on the Buddha’s head.
The current [Double-faced Buddha] still maintained its fundantal features, but the stark contrast observed upon activation had vanished completely.
The platform beneath the cha slowly rose, ascending into the Sky Arena.
“Dingchuan!”
“Dingchuan!”
Cheers erupted from outside the Sky Arena.
Upon the appearance of the emblematic bald black cha, the cheers grew even more fervent.
Extre Special Soldier Type II non-mass production special modified version.
Mu Fan had already proven his strength to everyone with the previous battle.
“That guy, wasn’t it him who piloted this cha and fought Clownfish yesterday! With that kind of power… Jixing Academy is dood this ti.”
“The strength of Jixing Academy and Gonia War Academy is too far apart to even imagine how this battle will proceed; conceding is the only option.”
“After all, Dingchuan Academy is on the verge of winning…”
Various analyses, mockeries, and cold words filled the audience at this mont.
Only a re hundred spectators supported Jixing Academy, and even they had lost confidence in watching this duel.
The expressions on the faces of those in the readiness zone were rather grim.
Because the black cha, wielding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, was advancing slowly, with every step feeling like a drumbeat pounding against their hearts.
“That arrogant Remington, does he even know who his opponent is!”
“Wait, Remington ca out…”
A teammate’s hesitant voice broke in.
In their vision, on the other side of the Sky Arena.
A heavy cha, entirely covered in a certain kind of inviolable golden majesty, slowly stepped out.
However, as people tracked upwards along its body, they saw that series of enormous Buddha beads and the smiling tallic face.
“This is…”
The spectators who noticed this furrowed their brows in silence.
Can you imagine what it feels like for a cha to smile at you?
Especially with such a fake smile, always beaming at you.
“It’s a bit terrifying…” A chubby person licked his lips, feeling his throat becoming dry.
On the other end, there were minor exclamations.
“Why is the cha’s head turned backward to look at us? That face is terrifying!”
“It’s not turned backward; this cha has two faces, front and back!”
When the cha turned, everyone clearly saw it, and the audience fell silent instantly.
“What kind of cha is this?”
Not only both academies, but spectators from other areas also rose simultaneously.
“…Renowned as the one closest to telekinetic thods, yet a miracle of physical chanics—the Double-faced Buddha!”
“This nearly untouched cha actually being prepared for combat!? What’s the na of this chanical master!”
“…Jixing Academy, Remington? Couldn’t recall… could it be Jixing Academy’s secret weapon?”
At this mont, the entire readiness zone of Jixing Academy turned to look at Supervisor Fa Chiyu, but upon seeing Supervisor Fa’s inscrutable smile, they suddenly had a premonition.
[Could it be that this Remington guy is indeed our academy’s secret weapon!?]
But what’s the use of showing up now?
This is not a round-robin battle, one person’s prowess can’t change the overall situation.
Yet, Supervisor Fa never once looked at them, let alone explained anything.
This forced the team mbers of Jixing Academy’s readiness zone to suppress their inner doubts.
The Extre Special Soldier steadily walked to the center of the arena and stood firm.
Within the cockpit, Mu Fan solemnly gazed forward.
This cha’s debut, much like the previous [Clownfish], brought him an inexplicable eerie feeling.
“[Double-faced Buddha] cha has two modes, the golden mode with extrely high mobility, unique double arc booster device allowing it to execute very elusive maneuvers, beware of attacks from all directions in this form. But what truly leaves an impression is its other, black-faced mode!”
Black’s voice was icily emotionless, currently recounting the data it understood in the most systematic language.
“The black-faced mode is the dividing line between the skilled and the unskilled for [Double-faced Buddha]! In this mode, the double arc booster devices integrate into the engine, reducing the cha’s agility by nearly 50%, but its strength doubles! Its attack power doubles, but the operational difficulty for the pilot exponentially increases! Beware of the nine Buddha beads around its neck… if they’re truly [Double-faced Buddha] experts, consider those beads as a telekinetic’s weapon.”
Listening to Black, Mu Fan nodded silently, controlling the cha to slightly raise its shield, the entire cha leaning slightly forward, revealing only a pair of eyes above the shield, while the right Acabert Retractable Sword slowly hung down.
It’s the standard cha defensive posture!
Inside [Double-faced Buddha], Lei Zhe gently lifted his calm eyes to gaze ahead.
The defensive stance of the special modified Extre Special Soldier naturally ca into his view.
“Heh~ So you’re the target of this transaction? The genius student of Dingchuan, the hope of the academy?”
Lei Zhe licked his lips.
“When did talents start appearing outside of Capital Star?”
“What I like to do most…”
“…is to crush so-called geniuses!”
Inside the cockpit of the Double-faced Buddha, shockingly, were two screens!
One facing forward and one backward, both entering Lei Zhe’s eyes simultaneously.
His eyeballs reflecting different hues… at this mont, Lei Zhe emanated a bloodthirsty aura!
“Let the match begin!”
As the Phoenix Bell tolled, the Double-faced Buddha was already stepping forth first.
Thud!
Within a massive tremor, the giant Buddha beads around the [Double-faced Buddha]’s neck instantly floated—
Exploding in less than half a second!
