Ep. 17: The Assassination Plot Unveiled During the C-Block Finals

17

B Block concludes with the Alexander Sisters advancing easily. Jackal plants chips in Artemis Stadium while C Block sees Gouda and Daiki reach the final against Jackal’s Mad Dog. The robot evades attacks persistently. Ban and others search for EM waves without success until the President’s speech starts. Jackal activates the chips to create false readings, switching Mad Dog to auto combat and controlling distant Router LBXs via CCM. Otacross detects water readings, prompting Ban and Hiro to investigate a router at 800m using Riding Saucers. Asuka notices a mismatch between Jackal’s controls and Mad Dog’s movements. Using Vampire Cat’s camera mode, she zooms in to identify Jackal as the assassin and sees the President is about to be shot, requiring immediate action.
