Chapter 6698 Cold Calculus
The Riot danced on the razor's edge as Venerable Rosa Orfan squeezed all of the performance out of the aged and outdated expert mech frame.
While the newer machines such as the Lionheart and the Blood Star Mark II were much faster, tougher and more responsive, the Riot Mark II was a relic of a bygone age, a product designed for the sole purpose of dueling opposing expert mechs. It was clear to see for everyone with a bit of sense in mechs that the Riot was not faring well at all. Even if the living expert spearman mech was able to evade every plasma sword attack up to this point, the Riot only needed to make one mistake to suffer a crippling or even a killing blow.
The good news was that Venerable Rosa Orfan was performing at her peak.
She made no mistakes because she literally could not afford to make them. A slow response, a misread of the enemy's movements or an overextension could easily cause her Riot to get melted by the plasma sword!
The Riot's resonance shield would not be able to resist for long.
The mix of alloys that comprised his mech frame would only be able to resist for a short amount of time before succumbing.
True first-class mechs made use of harder and more sophisticated alloys that were able to resist a wide variety of physical and energy attacks. Their heat capacities were exceptionally high and could buy precious seconds of time for the mech pilot to move a machine out of the way of a plasma weapon.
Of course, mechs that were rated to resist plasma weapons more effectively were also ludicrously expensive.
During the time the Larkinson Clan developed the Riot, it was a fantasy to acquire and make use of such rare and powerful exotic materials.
