Bab 64: Chapter: 64
Looking at Tony's shameless appearance, Mark was quite speechless.
"Alright, since you insist so strongly, Hover-cannon, let's have another round with him!" Mark commanded.
Hover-cannon, following the command, stepped on their hover devices and swiftly entered the makeshift battlefield.
Shortly after, Tony also entered the field, full of confidence and grandeur. Although Mark had mentioned that even with the assistance of Accel World, Tony only had a chance to escape the attacks of the energy cannons, Tony didn't believe it. Mark's weapon system, which utilized the energy cannons as attack units, was indeed innovative and practical, boasting perfect offensive power and coverage range.
However, Tony believed more in the power of his own armor. In fact, due to objective factors such as his reaction speed, Tony had never been able to fully unleash the capabilities of his armor. So, Mark's estimation of his combat effectiveness was definitely inaccurate.
Moreover, now that he had obtained the assistance of Accel World, he could not only unleash the full potential of the Mark IV armor but also quickly react and dodge incoming attacks. Therefore, Tony was full of confidence in this rematch against Hover-cannon.
"J.A.R.V.I.S., is the new module connected?"
"Sir, the new module has been successfully loaded. Shall I initiate?"
"Initiate!" Although the battle hadn't started yet, Tony activated Accel World in advance to avoid falling into a passive state again.
"Initiating. Identity verification successful, normal physical indicators, compliant with usage requirements. Acceleration will commence shortly. Three, two, one, speed-up!"
Accel World was officially activated, and Tony immediately felt the change. Everything around him seemed to freeze in place, and his body movement required overcoming heavy resistance. "J.A.R.V.I.S., activate coordination system and action assistance."
"It's already activated, sir."
"Now it's much easier. I can move normally now. In the previous round, I gave you the first move, but this time, I won't be so polite!"
To secure victory this time, Tony no longer held back. He even resorted to some despicable tactics and launched an attack on Hover-cannon without any warning.
With the assistance of Accel World, Tony, in his brain overclocking state, greatly enhanced his reaction speed. Without any hesitation, he pushed the Mark IV's speed to its maximum limit—15 Mach. The intense sonic boom made Mark and Pepper cover their ears from a distance, but they could hardly see Tony's figure. They could only occasionally discern his position from one or two afterimages.
At this incredible speed, Tony quickly closed in on Hover-cannon, reaching its front. However, instead of rushing forward recklessly, Tony engaged in close-range firing.
Moreover, Tony's attack strategy is to shoot and then move to another location. He maintains a distance of about 3.5 meters from Hover-cannon and continuously circles around it, using it as the center of his attack.
With his increased reaction speed, Tony can easily control the armor and make precise tight turns at a speed of 15 Mach. He can accurately target and fire at the enemy. In just a moment, Tony launches a dozen or more energy beams from various directions around Hover-cannon. For Hover-cannon, which lacks flight capabilities, there seems to be no escape from this onslaught.
However, Tony's triumph is short-lived. Just when he thought his attack was successful, the smoke clears, revealing that Hover-cannon remains completely unharmed in the center of the battlefield. Not even the grass beneath its feet has been touched by the devastating barrage.
"JARVIS, scan and find out what's going on!" Tony commands.
"Understood, scanning is in progress... Sir, the results show that the opponent has formed an energy shield generated by an energy field surrounding him. It has blocked all of your attacks," JARVIS responds.
"An energy field?!" Tony is astonished upon hearing JARVIS's scan results. He quickly examines Hover-cannon and confirms that his, originally used as attack units, have combined into a spherical array that envelops the cannon.
Each node of this array fires energy waves towards its three adjacent nodes. The energy waves overlap and resonate with each other, creating a powerful spherical energy field that becomes an impenetrable defense for Hover-cannon.
"Not only can it attack, but it can also defend? This is simply incredible! The energy source alone extends its operational time, and the modular design saves significant structural space for other components. It provides designers with more possibilities. I envy it... I want it!" Tony exclaims.
However, now is not the time to think about these things. He must find a way to break this stalemate. "To break through this absolute defense, I'll have to become the bait and lure it to attack me. Once it switches to an offensive mode, its defensive spherical array will naturally become vulnerable," Tony strategizes.
With this plan in mind, Tony slows down his speed and starts moving in front of the cannon instead of walking towards its rear.
Hover-cannon, seeing an opportunity, immediately switches to attack mode and unleashes a barrage of fire at Tony.
On the other hand, Tony is delighted to see Hover-cannon abandon its defense and initiate an attack. This is his chance. With his brain overclocked in the accelerated state, Tony deftly dodges the attacks of Hover-cannon and advances.
When he reached a distance of less than 1 meter from the cannon, Tony extended his limbs and focused energy in the chest arc reactor. It's time to unleash his ultimate move.
A burst of light flashes as Tony unleashes the maximum power of the energy cannon stored in his chest, targeting Hover-cannon's vulnerable head.
"What?! How am I supposed to fight back? Mark, you've designed this too meticulously," Tony exclaims with a bitter smile.
Indeed, the devastating final move he had planned was once again blocked by the cannon. Tony never anticipated that Hover-cannon's surrounding cannons could pair up to form an energy shield.
It was precisely this seemingly miniature energy shield that intercepted Tony's energy beam attack, and after defending, the two Cannons separate once again and continue their assault on Tony.
