Common attack style with a long blade...? How is that possible!?

The maintenance engineer from DE looked into the virtual scene, and Lin Yao was still chaining attacks!

Using a long blade for normal attacks?! Can a mecha pilot handle such maneuvers?

At the YDS base, Ke Lin is a guardian mecha pilot, and he observes the operation of guardian mechas very keenly. He sees Lin Yao's continuous movements as if it were a perpetual motion machine. As long as he holds the blade, this chain of attacks can continue.

Hu Luobu's scalp tingle. As an artillery mecha, he understands the pain of being approached, especially being comboed in melee like this. "How can his stamina be so good?! He can still chain attacks?! That's a blade, not the light blade of a stealth mecha!"

"Lin Yao's weapon isn't equipped with a high-attack ability crystal."

Ke Lin looks at Lin Yao's peculiar weapon. Clearly a blade, but the allocation of the blade and the hilt is particularly disorganized. However, in Lin Yao's hands, such a weapon can produce an effect he has never seen before. He says, "Qi Sicheng told me that KID's front line is very strong. Gale Base once considered buying them to form a second team."

The faster the attack speed, the more effective the normal attack style.

In a melee with normal attacks, the damage of the weapon is not that high, but this playstyle is about speed. It's a competition to see how much damage you can accumulate in a short time, achieving the damage of a high-attack weapon in a single strike through the accumulation of regular attacks.

Stealth mechas can handle it because their inherent mecha characteristics include a speed boost. But Lin Yao is using a long blade. Playing normal attack style with a long blade requires split-second precision and endless stamina.

Hu Luobu: "But this is too fierce. Even if his damage per strike is not high, how long can he keep this chain going!?"

"I remember the data saying that Lin Yao is an S-rank physique mecha pilot." Ke Lin frowns as he watches the situation in the arena. "Lin Yao used to deliver a set of seven strikes while maintaining a high level of combat effectiveness. This is a formidable combo, but have you noticed that his damage is not higher than before, and the speed of the blade is a bit slower compared to the data I've seen, but it has been consistently stable. Guardian mecha pilots, when delivering combos, even if they have good physique, the speed of the blade slows down the more they fight."

Any physique anomaly cannot maintain a high level with every strike.

There is only one exception: a speed-attack normal attack style weapon. This type of weapon may not be the fastest, but it is the most stable, maintaining a terrifyingly uniform speed of attack accumulation.

Hu Luobu, "Normal attack style with a long blade??? A blade is different from a short blade!"

"But he's doing it, and this kind of blade is generally not used by guardian mecha pilots. Even I can't achieve the effect that Lin Yao is showing." Ke Lin looks at the agile guardian mecha in the virtual scene. "This is a blade that only Lin Yao can wield at a high level."

What kind of weapon designer did KID find to tailor such a blade for Lin Yao!?

The rhythm of a long blade is harder to grasp than a short blade, considering factors such as swing range, environment, and stamina. It is usually difficult for long-blade weapons, despite their wide attack range, to achieve a high attack speed due to the length of the weapon.

The long blade given to Lin Yao by Ying Chenlin uses an A-grade Nine Dragon Vine's regenerative ability crystal.

[Regeneration], in the field of pollutants, is a continuous and steady supply. When applied to mechas, it accelerates the supply of energy in a short time.
