Chapter 880: International Robot Competition Finals

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The announcer deliberately stopped and paused to arouse everyone’s full attention. The audience in the venue and online had also inexplicably become excited.

“Fighting.”

After the announcer said this in a raised voice, the audience in the venue and the netizens exploded into a frenzy.

“No way, the last match is going to turn out to be a fight?”

“How are they planning to fight? Don’t tell me the robots from five teams would be fighting randomly?”

“What if they break the robot?”

“Country D is doing it intentionally, aren’t they? Who doesn’t know that their robots are actually battle-type robots? If it really turns into a fight, a single robot of theirs can defeat all the other robots.”

“That may not necessarily be the case. Country A’s robots are also very strong.”

“I feel that China’s robots might have a chance to compete with them.”

“Is the person above cracking a joke? How can China’s robots possibly compete with the robots from Country D and Country A in terms of fighting? A random robot from these two countries can easily crush China’s robots with a casual flick of a finger.”

“That’s right. Looking at China’s robot, it’s obvious that it’s not built for combat.”

“Why do I feel that the purpose of the last match was to deliberately make things difficult for China’s robot? It must be because Country D does not wish to see China’s robot win and so, they did this on purpose.”

“Country D can’t even be bothered to look at China’s robots, alright? The content of the match has already been set in advance and so how could they have done it on purpose?”

…

The netizens got into a fight and the intensity escalated as time passed. In the end, it almost paralyzed the network at several instances.

No matter how intense the fight was on the internet, the competition had already started.

On the four ends of the platform, infrared fences that connected from the roof to the ground appeared.

When the fence appeared, it resulted in a wave of surprise.

“Country D is so awesome! I can’t believe that they managed to design and create such infrared fences.”

“This must be the power of the country that is ranked first worldwide in terms of technology.”

“Haha, I’ve already imagined the scene of Country D winning first place.”

“Isn’t that something easily achievable?”

…

The announcer’s voice sounded once again. “Right now, the President of the Robot Association will be announcing the rules and regulations of the finals.”

After the announcer said that, what followed shortly afterwards was a middle-aged man’s voice.

The middle-aged man started with a long intro before he continued and said, “Before the start of the competition, every team has signed an agreement. No matter how heavily damaged the robots are after the finals, the team themselves will be responsible for all the costs and repairs on their end.

“Therefore, during the finals, all the robots will activate their combat mode. In the end, those that remain in the arena would be ranked according to their level of damage.”

After the President of the Robot Association explained the rules and regulations, everyone was boiling in excitement.

Everyone had a violent tendency in their nature and all of them hoped to see such a competition where the winner is determined based on their fighting abilities. Not to mention, it was the most cutting-edge robot technology from various countries that were engaged in the fight.

After the sound of a whistle was heard, the competition officially started.

Not before long, both the audiences, live and on the internet, were all screaming out loud.

“Heavens! How exciting!”

“Country E’s robot transformed!”

“I didn’t expect Country Y’s robot to have so many weapons.”

“I feel as though I have walked into a science fiction film!”

“Why do I feel that China’s robot is the weakest?”

“Everyone, quick go and place your bets. Someone opened a bet and the banker is betting on China’s team to win. The betting amount is five billion and everyone is sure to win!”

“Oh my, it’s true! Don’t tell me the banker is one of the higher-ups of the country?”

“It must be. Otherwise, who would have the courage to take out five billion?”

“This bet comes from [Futuristic] Technology. Why haven’t I heard of the name before?”

“Go on and check where it’s from.”

“The registered company is in China, but the boss of this company cannot be found.”

“Could it be a random shell company the higher-ups in China registered?”

“Since they are being so generous, I’ll join in the bet too. I will be a fool to not join in on a bet where I’m guaranteed to win.”

…

For a while, the number of people joining the bet increased.

When the stakes soon reached ten billion, many of the higher-ups of various countries started to pay attention.

“[Futuristic] Technology? Quick, go and find out if it’s that technology company that invented new materials.”

“It’s precisely that company.”

The higher-ups of various countries paid even more attention to this company than the bet. The moment the company started the bet, they immediately ordered their technical departments to start tracking the company.

However, they could not find out who the boss was, no matter how they checked.

“Many people are guessing it’s a company set up by the higher-ups of China.”

“Impossible, if it’s them, they would not have hidden themselves.”

“Could it have been opened by Lu Jingye from China?”

“I believe so. He’s the only one that has that ability and is receiving protection from China.”

“Immediately send someone to find out more about the company right away.”

The higher-ups of various countries immediately ordered their men to dig further and investigate [Futuristic] Technology.

At the same time, they had also joined in on the bet anonymously.

“Heavens! The stakes suddenly rose to thirty billion!”

Qin Ze, who was seated in the same room as Zi Yi, was shocked by Zi Yi and Lu Jingye’s methods.

He did not expect those two to have the courage to play with such huge stakes.

In the beginning, he would still ask out of concern, “What if someone finds out? This is such a huge bet, can the both of you handle it?”

Qin Ze wanted to give his father a call to ask for his help.

But he did not expect Zi Yi to casually mention. “If you saw the bets placed in my previous racing competition, you wouldn’t be making such comments here.”

Qin Ze’s curiosity was instantly aroused and he hastily went to check the betting amount.

After he finished checking, he nearly threw his phone on the ground.

He swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. His eyes were wide open, like a hillbilly who had lived in a cave all his life. “Why do I feel that money is just a number in your eyes?”

As someone who was always broke, he started hating the rich.

When the betting amount reached forty billion, Country Y’s robot was eliminated.

The scene became even more intense.

On the competition ground, the remaining four robots revealed their weapons and even Country E’s robot had transformed.

After transforming, Country E’s robot turned into a one-horned beast that was more than two meters high. The other robots looked to be in a disadvantageous situation in comparison.

“F*ck! Why is Country E’s robot chasing China’s robot? He’s definitely doing it on purpose.”

“Why do I feel that the robots of the other teams had already made an agreement in advance?”

“Look out!”

Those spectators from China who were watching the competition were on high alert as their hearts beat wildly.

The thrilling fight turned into three robots joining forces to fight against one robot. At this moment, Moonlight only had a sword in his hand. Even though the sword would release a strong electric current, and the other three robots were unable to approach him right away, this type of situation did not evoke a good feeling.

The engineers from China’s team felt like cursing out loud.

“F*ck! These three teams must have discussed it in advance!”

“What to do? Country A and Country D’s robots are too powerful. Can Moonlight resist their attacks?”

“Motherf*cker! Country A is launching a sneak attack on Moonlight.”

BAM!

“Wow!”

Looking at Moonlight being pushed toward the infrared fence with a palm and bouncing off as it fell on the ground, sparks shot out from his body and the audience even started to cheer.
