Chapter 368 - 182: Rescue and the Roadblock Tiger (Part 2)
"If we continue to be entangled like this, I’m going to get really annoyed." Su Jiameng raised her hand to activate the liquid buffering system of the mecha cockpit, which ensured that even when she maxed out Ghost Shadow’s speed, her body wouldn’t feel discomfort or collapse.
After Gu Ningxuan unleashed his combat power, the audience indulged in another visual feast. While Gu Ningxuan’s victories were dominated by his open and powerful strength, Su Jiameng relied more on her terrifyingly fast movement and attack speed.
On the ground, Cui Hu had already given up the futile attempt to capture Ghost Shadow’s movements with his eyes and put on a pair of specially made glasses. The lenses flashed with complex data, and Cui Hu calmly remarked, "The speed of that mecha is at least three times faster than before, and this growth rate is still increasing... Can the human body withstand such extreme speed?"
"Naturally, it can, and this isn’t even her limit..." Gu Ningyi pushed his mask up, trying to appear calm, although he was just as surprised as Cui Hu. "Judging by the reality, her physical abilities aren’t weak, and the mecha’s configuration is terrifyingly advanced. The cockpit’s liquid buffering system is also at the forefront of technology..."
The liquid buffering system is a significant component of the mecha. It helps the pilot reduce external shocks and damage, allowing the body to withstand even greater speed and impact.
For a Mecha Master, operational ability, technique, and speed are three crucial components. If physical ability is lacking or the liquid buffering system is inadequate, it can severely affect the Mecha Master’s strength.
As for Su Jiameng... while it’s a rough guess, this speed is likely beyond what her current physical ability can handle, meaning this mecha’s energy buffering system is exceedingly advanced! Haha, she really is risking everything for victory!
Shaking her head slightly, Su Jiameng was aware that no matter how strong her control skills were, operating the mecha at such speed while ensuring the quality doesn’t drop required much more effort than before! She couldn’t hold on for much longer...
Perhaps to verify Gu Ningyi’s speculation, Su Jiameng suddenly let out a muffled groan as her hand paused. The laser longsword aimed at another mecha’s energy engine veered off course, allowing the opponent to seize the opportunity and counter-attack Ghost Shadow’s mechanical arm.
However, Ghost Shadow’s materials were no simple matter, impervious to damage from the opponent. The sword and the mechanical arm clashed at high speed, producing a brilliant spark that splattered in all directions like fireworks, leaving a fleeting trail in the air.
"Damn it... continuing to push like this is unsustainable, the strain on the body is too much..." Su Jiameng gradually returned to her previous speed, internally lamenting. In her past life, not to mention her previous limit speed, even if it were four or five times faster, it wouldn’t have been a burden! After this match, it’s best if I quickly resume training—time doesn’t wait for anyone, without effort, I’ll be overtaken!
A knowing smile appeared at the corner of Gu Ningyi’s lips beneath his mask. He roughly counted the mechas in the sky, pondering that it shouldn’t be a problem to exhaust Su Jiameng. He sent a message to Theo Mossley, then continued to leisurely observe the aerial battle.
"Theo... changed the strategy?" Cui Hu, with his innate command talent, had a keen perception of shifts in the battle’s rhythm. It only took a moment for him to notice that Theo Mossley, who had been holding a supportive position, began to change his pace.
"Victory is all that matters..." Gu Ningyi said with a smile, quite satisfied with Theo Mossley’s responsive capabilities.
Given the current trend, in due time, Theo Mossley could certainly become as exceptional and formidable as his brother, a remarkable warrior of the Jialanluo Clan. Luckily, the relationship between the Human Alliance and the Jialanluo Clan Alliance is relatively amicable. Were they adversaries... Gu Ningyi raised his hand to obscure his eyes, concealing the murderous intent flickering within. He wouldn’t allow Theo Mossley to continue growing unchecked, far too dangerous.
At that moment, Gu Ningyi casually glanced at the map, discovering a red dot representing the enemy drawing dangerously close to the base at an alarming speed, even traversing the harsh Chaotic World Forest without slowing—evidently, the opponent’s operating skills were exceptional!
Gu Ningyi removed his mecha space hub from around his neck, speaking coolly, "Cui Hu, watch over this place for now. I’m going to deal with a pesky little mouse."
The team could view those represented by blue dots but couldn’t see the adversaries. Thus, Gu Ningyi didn’t know who that red dot signified. However, for someone to provocatively rush here like this, they must have some skill.
Since Su Jiameng couldn’t quickly handle those mechas, and he had no suitable sparring targets, he might as well use this arrogant little mouse as a warm-up. Cui Hu nodded approval, and Gu Ningyi called forth his mecha, gracefully leaping tens of meters into the air to enter the cockpit. Activating all systems, the mecha fully awakened at that moment.
Activating the remote monitoring system, Gu Ningyi looked at the captured images on the virtual screen and suddenly chuckled lightly, "Unexpected... I didn’t think I’d actually run into you. It was just a joke before, but now that you’ve come to me on your own, don’t blame me for not being polite, brother."
It was none other than Gu Ningxuan. Su Jiameng’s strength was certainly formidable, but strong as she was, she still faced restrictions like age and practical experience. Another two or three decades, and there would be no worry. But now...
"Who are you?" Staring at the mecha blocking his path, Gu Ningxuan felt an unease settle in his heart, "Move aside!"
"Move aside? Sure, beat me first; otherwise, what right do you have to assist others?" Gu Ningyi said with amusement. "Before boasting, measure your own strength and weight... I am the king of the opposing team. Defeat me, and you can prematurely end this chaos. She naturally won’t have to face the danger of being surrounded..."
Gu Ningyi casually asked, "So, do you dare to fight me?" (To be continued. If you like this work, please go to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile readers, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
