The battle began!
Learning from Kurapika's defeat, Red Pole had no intention of getting close to Bladesman, especially since she was a ranged mecha herself!
As soon as the battle started, Phantom 733 used its camouflage, disappearing into the jungle, ensuring safety before launching an attack.
The players' hearts tightened. They hoped Bladesman would detect his opponent's presence, but sadly no miracle occurred. BS001 was already outdated, and its average radar and infrared couldn't detect the Phantom 733's camouflage at all.
BS001 stood dazed, spinning around but still finding no trace of the enemy. The radar and infrared indicators were clearly flashing, but useless. The Phantom's camouflage was highly advanced—hard to spot even with the naked eye.
Crimson Pole was also calm; this was a female's meticulousness. She didn't rush for success, only cautiously attacked after confirming the opponent couldn't find her position.
Whoosh…
A laser flashed, melting BS001's laser rifle. Although lasers don't cause explosions, they have high penetration and solubility, and move at light speed. One could only dodge by predicting the laser's activation, which required spotting the Phantom's main body.
Crimson Pole breathed a huge sigh of relief after destroying BS001's laser rifle. She was still wary of Bladesman's marksmanship—caution is never too much. First, she secured her undefeated position.
Seeing the laser rifle destroyed, supporters of Bladesman shouted indignantly. Unfair! How could they fight like this?
Li Feng still showed no reaction. He dazedly pulled out his titanium blade and walked toward where the laser had fired, but by then Crimson Pole had already moved. Her laser gun was aimed at his titanium blade—a much smaller target—so she had to wait for an opportunity. With so many trees blocking her shots, a rare opening appeared just as he stepped behind another tree. No matter—Bladesman couldn't see her, and he was walking back toward her original location. The closer he got, the higher her hit rate. If she could knock away his titanium blade, victory was certain!
BS001 suddenly slowed down, which to outsiders looked like caution before engaging the enemy, but Red Pole's laser gun was already aimed, ready to fire the moment the titanium blade appeared within range.
BS001 was advancing with the titanium blade extended, and sure enough, the blade appeared—without hesitation, the laser shot and hit the target right on!
Danger!
The titanium blade was sent flying, and BS001, at a terrifying high speed, rammed through two trees toward Phantom 733's hiding spot; the shot just now had already revealed its position!
But Red Pole was also battle-hardened, since revealing her position by shooting had happened more than once—after the attack, she immediately shifted into high-speed movement. At this speed, the Phantom's agility was unquestionable; its ultra-light frame was the best advantage, and moving in stealth was like a phantom—gone in the blink of an eye!
Almost all the players felt the match was over—that last chance had been missed. It wasn't the Bladesman's fault, but rather the overwhelming difference in mecha types. The next attack would target BS001's main body.
BS001 seemed to not notice and still charged toward the original spot, but by then Red Pole had already left. However, at that moment, BS001 suddenly turned and rushed straight toward Phantom 733's hiding place!
Red Pole got a shock—could the opponent actually detect her? It had to be a coincidence, definitely just luck!
She immediately moved to another position, but BS001's terrifying "speed" had already been pushed to the max, lunging at Phantom 733 like a monster. Red Pole had already changed direction three times, but the opponent found her each time. And due to the turns, their distance was shrinking—and that was when Red Pole realized a very serious problem: she didn't know what method the opponent used, but it could truly track her movements!
It's no coincidence!
BS001 casually snapped a large tree and hurled it right where Phantom 733 was about to move. Red Pole slammed to a halt, almost crashing into it. The biggest problem was—she panicked!
This had never happened before, and at this moment, BS001 once again performed a high-speed parallel ejection, directly smashing through the obstructing trees and landing a heavy blow on the Phantom's body.
Instantly, a murderous aura enveloped the Crimson Pole. The laser gun had already been knocked away by BS001's punch, and a second punch pierced through the phantom's body. Once a light mobile suit is grabbed by a heavy one, it's like an adult arm-wrestling a child.
After piercing through, BS001 immediately made a tearing motion in one fluid movement. The Phantom 733's body was torn in two and exploded with a roar!
The players were all stunned by the Bladesman's ferocity!
Li Feng wouldn't go easy on an opponent just because she was a woman. Once in battle, he was a killer. And the Phantom 733 had actually given him a bit of a scare just now. He didn't really need the test system—Li Feng could sense the enemy's position by perceiving the killing intent. But it was still dangerous, so he pretended not to be able to detect them and waited for an opening.
Usually, victorious fighters would do some celebratory moves or say something polite, but not Li Feng. The moment the battle ended, he immediately withdrew from the combat scene. It wasn't until he had left that the players snapped out of it.
Damn, he actually won like that!
The players' first reaction was to watch the replay. Every time they watched the replay, they discovered something even scarier about the Bladesman. They had no idea how he had found the Red Pole's position!
After watching the replay, the experienced players immediately understood: the Bladesman had actually been able to detect the Red Pole's position from the very beginning. He just didn't attack recklessly, considering the difference in mecha types. And during the first movement, the Red Pole never found a chance to shoot, not by accident—every time there was an opening, BS001 would suddenly accelerate. And due to the trees blocking the view, the Red Pole couldn't notice. But in the replay, it was crystal clear: behind the cover of the trees, BS001 was constantly changing its speed. This was top-tier micro-maneuvers!
Forum comments piled up one after another, but from the footage people still couldn't figure out how Bladesman detected Phantom's mimicry—yet he really did!
After watching the video, Crimson Pole was thoroughly convinced of her defeat. Her strength was simply no match for his, and losing to BS001 left no room for excuses, but she still couldn't help sending Li Feng a message to ask.
As her opponent, Li Feng simply replied with one line: 'I could see it.'
This answer was also posted on the forum as the 'solution'—'see,' too vague. See how? See with what?
