The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Have Mercy, Hero

From the start to now, Rag Queen has unexpectedly fought to a stalemate with the top-ranked Little Shengsheng. For a moment, the audience was stunned, all craning their necks in anticipation of the outcome...

Suddenly—

The Rag Queen, in mid-air, stumbled for some reason. Fortunately, with her quick reaction, she narrowly steadied her figure to avoid plummeting from the sky. It was at this moment that Little Shengsheng, who had been relentlessly pursuing the Rag Queen, dove towards her...

The situation was a bit perilous...

Many in the audience down below squeezed out a sweat for the Rag Queen. However, the Rag Queen, after all, was someone who had fought her way into the top 20 with her strength. Even at this critical moment, she remained composed. First, she steadied her posture, regained control of her mecha, then kept her speed even before suddenly bursting forth with energy, dashing away in a swift move...

Little Shengsheng, who had just caught up, could only continue his fervent pursuit in the face of this scene.

Swoosh—

Swoosh—

Swoosh—

Throughout the entire arena, all one could see were two streaks of silver light constantly flashing by, impossible to discern who was who...

Suddenly—

A swiftly rotating silver-white mecha’s body swayed, gradually revealing its shape. Was this—

The Rag Queen?

Audience: ”???”

What’s going on?

Why is the Rag Queen malfunctioning now and then?

Could it be—

Insufficient spiritual power?

Physical Strength not keeping up?

...

Not only did the audience speculate thus, but even Little Shengsheng, who had been continuously attacking the Rag Queen, harbored doubts at that moment. Could it really be that she was running out of strength?

In the saying, ”strike him when he is down,” anyone would choose to deliver a killing blow to their opponent at this time. After some consideration, Little Shengsheng had no intention of letting the Rag Queen off the hook.

Therefore—

While pushing the thrusters to their maximum, Little Shengsheng aimed at the energy system on the Rag Queen’s mecha and fired a Particle Cannon.

Swoosh—

With the sound of the air being torn, Ji You’s forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and she clenched her teeth, dodging as best as she could...

Bang!

The Particle Cannon grazed past the mecha’s tail wing...

That was close!

This thrilling and exciting moment made even the spectators unable to help but squeeze a sweat for the Rag Queen, who, in the cockpit, had dodged this fatal attack, and once again picked up speed...

But—

The subsequent Particle Cannon from Little Shengsheng was already on the chase.

Clang—

The tip of the Mechanical Blade shook violently and trembled slightly as it started to fall towards the ground!

The audience exclaimed: ”This is perilous!”

Could it be so easy to escape Little Shengsheng’s sniper lock-on? Moreover, the Rag Queen seemed to have lost some control over her mecha while fleeing...

Just this? If it were someone else facing Little Shengsheng, they would have already died hundreds or thousands of times, not even aware how many times the grass on their graves had grown. Her ability to still be active at this time was proof of her immense strength...

The two mechas dueled in the sky, one dodging, one attacking, going back and forth several times. Not just the audience in the stands, but even Little Shengsheng, inadvertently caught a glimpse of the pale, sweat-beaded face of Rag Queen in the opposite cockpit!

This pitiable state...

It’s over!

Not only did the audience think this way, but Little Shengsheng was also utterly convinced that her next move would surely be lethal. Even if she had misjudged the condition of the Rag Queen at the moment...

Not out of arrogance, this was entirely the intuition of an experienced hunter, who had claimed countless ’preys’!

Boom—

Little Shengsheng activated her Killing Skill: Several High Energy Particle Cannons, locking on to the Rag Queen.

The audience couldn’t help but slightly close their eyes...

second.

seconds.

seconds.

...

Huh?

Why is the battlefield as silent as a chicken?

The audience widened their eyes and looked up...

They saw—

Little Shengsheng’s High Energy Particle Cannons suddenly stopped midair, and Little Shengsheng’s Mecha also shook violently at that moment, looking like it was about to lose balance and fall from the sky...

Audience: ”???”

So, was everything just now, an act of feigned death by the Rag Queen?

Before the audience could express their doubts, Ji You suddenly let out a long sigh, her tone melancholy, ”I just wanted to keep a low profile, but you all want me to go berserk... No choice then! It’s time to reveal my true self!”

Audience: ”...”

Ji You bellowed: ”Everyone——with me: Rag Queen, the best in the arena!”

Audience: ”...”

Such a shameless and brazen line had never been uttered so boldly in front of everyone else in the entire online competition; only the Rag Queen had the audacity to blow her own trumpet like that.

Whether it be Little Shengsheng, who was fully prepared for battle, or the bewildered audience, or even the whole site, there was a strange silence for a few seconds...

After a brief moment of deathly stillness.

Audience A: ”Anyone here pee frequently? Come and wake her up!”

Audience B: ”Step aside, my pee’s Yellow!”

Audience C: ”First a spit as a sign of respect!”

Audience D: ”Spit may be late, but it never fails to show up, ptooey!”

...

Ji You: ”...”

How thick-skinned was Ji You? Having seen big scenes before, how could she be embarrassed by such a small fry? Her shout was simply to attract everyone’s attention, in preparation for a bait-and-switch...

It was also at that moment, taking advantage of the diverted attention, that Ji You suddenly pounced towards Little Shengsheng!

Clang!

Bang bang!

Crack!

...

In that instant, the audience could only see two Mechas entwined, blade flashes and shadow slashes, with countless sparks flying around and loud noises resounding...

”My eyes are dazzled!”

”Truly dazzled.”

”Who just got slashed?”

”And who just got punched?”

”The one whose arm got severed, who was it?”

”The one whose head was nearly smashed, who was it?”

...

Fast!

So fast!

The audience dared not be the slightest bit distracted, watching the arena without blinking, yet still unable to discern who was who, or who had the upper hand. They could only feel that the two combatants in the arena were like the center of a raging tornado, stirring up storms wherever they passed...

Then——

”Holy shit!”

A sudden scream echoed through the arena as a Mecha plummeted rapidly...

It was only then that everyone could see clearly that it was Rag Queen’s Mecha.

Boom——

A huge roaring explosion bloomed midair.

Rag Queen’s Mecha, shattered into countless pieces...

Audience: ”...”

As the audience couldn’t bear to look any longer, a human body fell from the sky and landed on the ground.

Alive!

Ji You: ”Damn! Missed!”

Audience: ”!!!!!!”

At this moment, Little Shengsheng, piloting his Mechanical Blade, landed gracefully, just in front of the fallen Rag Queen. Without a word, Little Shengsheng raised the sword in his hand...

”Mercy, mighty warrior!” Ji You’s eyes widened, she rolled on the spot, narrowly escaping a sword strike, and sprang up, running and howling, ”Big sis! I think... we can still talk this over...” Just then, a sky-piercing scream: ”Ahhh!!!”

Then, Little Shengsheng’s expression stern, unhesitatingly raised the sword in hand, ready to finish it in one move!

Audience: ”...”

A moment of silent mourning.

Candles lit.

Incense offered.
