Chapter 601: Chapter 376: Let Me See What You Look Like (Congratulations to the Alliance Hierarch, My Clan’s King on Patrol)
(Happy Birthday to Alliance Hierarch “My Lord Patrols the Mountains”! Note: Three updates today)
Mu Fan let out a breath and nodded.
He had already recognized it when he saw the information of the delivery person upon unlocking.
This was definitely Flame Rain Frost Blue!
But with such a heavy mass, this length, and volume…
What kind of weapon could it be?
Even Nuonuo was unclear about what precisely this beautifully named piece of equipment was.
The spacecraft, painted in black and white, swaggered past under the Sky Mother Ship and also flew over the top of the observation tower of Blue Capital’s Lan Du Military Group.
Ogden had already entered the hangar and was about to go into battle. This time, to deal with the Extreme Special Soldier, he had replaced over 80% of the Flagfish Missiles with Conical Charge Warheads that had an armor-piercing effect.
Donatello looked up and saw the conspicuous “Galaxy Transport” logo, furrowing his brow.
There were just over ten minutes until the start of the match, and suddenly a courier delivery was arriving?
He sure had a big heart to still be in the mindset to receive deliveries at such a moment.
Thinking this, Donatello suddenly laughed, but his neurotic expression made it impossible for those nearby to echo the sentiment.
Only Gaoling Ze was somewhat confused. “What are you laughing at, Natello?”
Donatello rarely laughed so heartily, even tears came out as he laughed, “How big of heart do they have on the other side? They’re still thinking about receiving deliveries now. Maybe they’re expecting some super weapon to turn the tables in one fell swoop? Hahaha.”
Last time, the Extreme Special Soldier was pierced through an arm by Rodrick, who was already supposed to be dead, piloting the Extreme Special Soldier R. Without logistics support, the opponent would probably do well just to patch up that hole.
He wanted to see how Mu Fan would handle it this time.
It was a foregone conclusion that Gaoling’s entry into the top 71 ranks, the Tang family, would inevitably rise through his hands, Donald!
As his smile subsided, Donald gestured for Gaoling Ze to take a seat.
Next, they could enjoy the countless fireworks blooming in the vast valley.
That was the domain of the Flagfish Missiles.
…
Wang Nuonuo looked at this precisely packaged metal box and suddenly remembered the call with her grandfather from twenty days ago, recalling the teasing tone he had used with her.
However, now, everything has changed.
“You must win, sir! Teach them a harsh lesson!” The girl’s conviction for victory suddenly peaked at this moment.
Loki Heavy Industry must carry on and become even stronger!
Mu Fan nodded: “I definitely will.”
“The match for advancing from 142 to 71 is about to begin, please prepare in advance,” announced the host’s voice from the Sky Mother Ship. There were less than ten minutes left before the intense battle would begin.
Mu Fan looked up at the colossal Sky Mother Ship and then down at Flame Rain Frost Blue, whose weapon form he still didn’t know.
“Nuonuo, we can start the battle now.”
After his words fell, Mu Fan turned and stepped into the hangar.
There, the Extreme Special Soldier with scars all over waited quietly.
The Extreme Special Soldier was a bit special this time, specifically the ugly “patch” on its left shoulder.
“Mu Fan, after an overnight process, with the use of laser and ultrasonic welding techniques, the Extreme Special Soldier has been moderately repaired. The exterior can’t achieve a one-piece forging look, but since both welding jobs were personally handled by this great one, you can rest assured of this piece of add-on armor’s strength. It can reach 90% of the original defense strength!” Black’s voice rang in Mu Fan’s ears.
“That’s good enough,” Mu Fan said, looking at the Acabert Alloy Heavy Sword strapped to the Extreme Special Soldier’s back, and after a thought, added, “Add another Heavy Sword.”
“We have brought four spare Heavy Swords. If we add one more, then there will only be one left. Besides, didn’t we receive new weapons just now?” Black subtly hinted at the current state of the weaponry logistics.
The only spare weapons the Extreme Special Soldier had were these Acabert Alloy Heavy Swords, two of which had been damaged in two fierce battles already.
“I still can’t determine exactly what kind of weapon Flame Rain Frost Blue is. I’m still comfortable using these Heavy Swords, and we need two of them for the plan we set last night. It’s better to be safe than sorry.”
“Understood.”
Moments later, the Extreme Special Soldier, with two Heavy Swords crossed on its back, reappeared next to the observation platform.
The black Mecha’s right hand extended, slowly gripping the handle of the metal long box, and then, carrying the box, directly stepped onto the lift platform.
The Extreme Special Soldier, entering the third battle!
Above the Sky Mother Ship, as soon the Extreme Special Soldier stepped onto the lift platform, the wide-angle view of the giant screen locked onto the black Mecha.
This is a close-up shot of the mecha’s entrance, a requisite step for every contestant.
The main commentator remains Jin Ruisi, whose passionate voice rises from the microphone, “Everyone can see that entering the arena at this moment is our mysterious warrior—Extreme Special Soldier! As a mecha participating for the first time, Extreme Special Soldier only holds an A-grade evaluation, but it has created miracles time and time again by triumphing over stronger opponents. This time… uh, what is that on the warrior’s shoulder?”
Jin Ruisi suddenly stumbles over his words; then, in an unprecedented move, he pulls down his sunglasses and widens his eyes to examine the details on the screen.
Such a big patch!
It’s hideously ugly!
As he sees it, naturally, the entire audience sees it too, bursting into laughter in an instant.
“Hahaha, what is this, a patch job for a mecha? Patch it up when it’s torn—absolutely hilarious.”
“I remember in the last battle it got its shoulder pierced by Deep Blue Cavalry, oh no, I mean Extreme Special Soldier R. Just patch it up like this and continue the fight!? My God, this enterprise must be in dire straits, no spare mecha bodies, and the repair crew is so low quality.”
“I’m dying of laughter, this look is extravagantly bad.”
“It was already unsightly being so bare, adding a patch makes it less bare, but why does it look even uglier?”
…
Jin Ruisi, nearly caught off-guard, quickly pushes his sunglasses back up. After hearing someone whisper a report to him, his expression grows increasingly astonished, then, all of a sudden, he excitedly announces, “Perhaps you don’t know, but our Loki Heavy Industry faced some unforeseen circumstances before the competition, and as a result, they only have one mecha, one Mechanical Master, and one corporate representative for this competition. They are completely lacking any logistics, repair teams, or support staff!”
What?
No support at all?
The audience’s laughter stops abruptly.
“The Mechanical Master of Extreme Special Soldier, with zero logistical support, has taken on both combat and repair responsibilities by himself, and today, he’s still piloting his mecha and standing here! How far he can go, perhaps not even he knows, so please let’s give our applause to the true warrior,” says Jin Ruisi, his voice still trembling with the shock he couldn’t quite suppress—an irrefutable story relayed to him by Naden’s people.
“What?”
“Oh my God!”
“A one-man battle, badass!”
“Holy crap, I don’t care about the past, from today on I’m your fan, what a man!”
“To fight in such conditions… truly impressive.”
Some members of the audience digest what Jin Ruisi has just disclosed, unable to muster a single laugh, filled instead with shock and admiration.
Seeing the mocking laughter subside from the arena, Jin Ruisi points with a single hand towards Extreme Special Soldier, “We can see that for his entrance this time, unprecedentedly, he has brought with him two swords, which indirectly shows how potent the opponent is and how cautious Extreme Special Soldier is.”
Then Jin Ruisi frowns, “Friends in the audience, we can see that besides the two Heavy Swords, Extreme Special Soldier is also carrying a box—what is that? Could this be a new weapon? It’s not mentioned in any of our previous materials.”
Inside the cockpit, Mu Fan naturally couldn’t reveal to the blonde man with sunglasses what the weapon was because he himself didn’t know.
With heavy curiosity, the professionally committed Jin Ruisi starts to introduce the behemoth lumbering forward, creating deep pits with each step—the Earth Battle Fortress.
When the audience hears its full loaded weight of 129 tons, they feel as if their throats have been seized.
Nearly 100 tons of ammunition…
Are they planning to flatten the arena with this TM?
People glance again at the black mecha patched with “repairs,” with only two lonely Heavy Swords strapped to its back, as a somber atmosphere starts to swirl within them.
From the very beginning, this battle was unfair.
Thinking of the Earth Battle Fortress’s illustrious achievements, some even begin to pray the Mechanical Master of Extreme Special Soldier doesn’t perish.
The silent Extreme Special Soldier resembles a warrior marching towards a battle from which he may never return, calmly descending from the lift platform and moving to the ready zone.
People watch the solemn mecha in silence.
They seem to already anticipate what will come next…
“I don’t know why, but suddenly I feel like crying. I just hope the mecha survives,” a female viewer suddenly can’t help but cover her eyes; before, she could join in the laughter, but after knowing the real situation, she cannot muster a laugh.
“It… wait, what is it doing!?”
Her male companion was about to comfort her when he suddenly sees Extreme Special Soldier toss the black long case in its hand to the ground.
Subsequently, the mecha crouches on the ground, extending its hands slowly towards the pure black metal long case.
The gesture, as if unveiling a peerless treasure.
In the cockpit, Mu Fan watches the screen calmly, his palms resting on the control panel.
“Let’s see what you really look like, Flame Rain Frost Blue.”
