Chapter 505– Mecha Piloting

TL : GoldenLung

Modern mechas were becoming more and more like armors. Both legs were covered by the internal mecha, and the lower limbs were completely controlled through the movement of the legs. But the upper limbs were different. As they needed to operate all sorts of weapons, they were still controlled on a platform with brainwaves.

Maneuvering and brainwaves were the highest standards for mechas.

Generally speaking, most of the mechas in the military were controlled purely through brainwaves and some standard procedures to achieve the goal of battle.

But for truly strong mechas, especially when it came to surprise operations, they needed to be assisted manually. The faster and more accurate the hand speed, the better the control.

This was similar to the soul aircraft piloting, but mecha piloting was definitely much more complicated.

There were many types of mechas, but they had always been mainly in human form because this allowed them to simulate all sorts of human combat methods. This was especially so when they were used in battle with the soul master’s own soul skills.

The foundation of a Duo Mecha Master was the fusion of the soul master’s Battle Armor and mecha, resulting in a double protection and amplification effect. To a Duo Mecha Master, a mecha was equivalent to their second layer of Battle Armor.

Moving his legs, he could clearly feel the heaviness. A white mecha was undoubtedly the lowest level of mechas. It was eight meters tall and had only the most ordinary support systems.

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu and Tang Zhenhua had chosen close combat mechas with a shield and a battle sword. For safety reasons, they had turned off the high-frequency vibration of the battle sword and used it as an ordinary weapon.

“Boom, boom, boom, boom…” Taking a step forward, Lan Xuanyu controlled his mecha’s balance and walked towards Tang Zhenhua.

Due to his rich experience in piloting soul spacecrafts, the white mecha was able to move smoothly under his control.

Right at this moment, the white mecha under Tang Zhenhua’s control suddenly moved. It increased its speed and charged towards Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu controlled his mecha to raise the shield in front of him and increased his speed as he charged forward.

The two white mechas closed in very quickly. But right at this moment, the thrusters on Tang Zhenhua’s mecha suddenly flashed and flickered instead of erupting. However, his mecha had completed a sidestep and arrived at Lan Xuanyu’s side.

Lan Xuanyu instinctively controlled his mecha to turn around and shield himself.

However, Tang Zhenhua’s mecha had already completed its second thrust. It suddenly accelerated and crashed into his shield.

Immediately, a strong force came over and Lan Xuanyu felt his mecha about to collapse.

In terms of mental toughness, Lan Xuanyu was definitely second to none among his peers. Even under such a situation, he didn’t panic. He quickly borrowed the momentum to retreat and controlled the mecha’s right hand to swing the sword.

Tang Zhenhua squatted down and suddenly straightened up. He used his shield to hit the sword and stepped forward at the same time, using his shield to attack Lan Xuanyu’s chest once again.

“Bang!”

Lan Xuanyu’s mecha lost its balance and fell to the ground.

The thruster behind Tang Zhenhua’s mecha flashed again, and a series of attacks landed on Lan Xuanyu’s mecha.

“Bang bang bang, bang bang bang!” A series of explosions resounded.

Lan Xuanyu couldn’t control it anymore. His mecha was completely out of control from the attacks and he only felt a series of violent tremors and dizziness.

The shield flew, the sword flew.

At the last moment, Tang Zhenhua threw away his mecha’s battle sword and grabbed Lan Xuanyu’s mecha’s arm. With a vicious shoulder throw, he smashed his mecha onto the ground.

Lan Xuanyu, who was inside, was in a daze from the fall and felt as though his internal organs were about to be shaken out. His head was dizzy and he heard the alarm of the mechas.

“Get up, again!” Tang Zhenhua’s cold voice resounded.

Lan Xuanyu’s resistance to dizziness was still very strong as he struggled to get up from the ground.

Tang Zhenhua’s voice came over. “The basic point of mecha piloting is to control your balance. No matter what, you must ensure your own balance. Balance is the foundation of everything. Only with balance can you have good defense, and only with good defense can you have a chance to counterattack. What you need to do now is to maintain your balance under my attacks and hold on for as long as possible.”

With that said, his mecha charged forward once again.

He didn’t have any intention of showing mercy to his disciple. Tang Zhenhua originally thought that he would suffer in the year-skipping challenge competition, but he didn’t expect this brat to actually win. He even won the last match in a baffling manner.

Lan Xuanyu’s individual battle strength wasn’t taught by him. He was mainly in charge of the Space Command aspect. Spaceship piloting was actually the foundation of space warship piloting and many tactics were interlinked. Mecha piloting was supplementary and was also the most important aspect of individual combat.

In a space war, the use of mechas wasn’t that obvious, but this referred to ordinary mechas. If a commander had strong combat power, not only would it be easier to survive in a space war, but it would also have the ability to change the battlefield.

Hence, he had to learn the Duo Mecha Mastery, especially when Lan Xuanyu was displaying more and more of his talent. How could Tang Zhenhua not be strict with him?

Since the competition didn’t give him a blow, he would do it himself.

Tang Zhenhua gave Lan Xuanyu a mecha class with this mentality. Also, he felt that beating his own disciple up like a punching bag without any scruples was quite a good feeling.

Lan Xuanyu, who hadn’t vomited in a long time after the spacecraft piloting class had ended, vomited again today. When he climbed out of the mecha, he was already bruised and swollen from the collision. And this was under the protection of his Golden Dragon Body.

“We’ll continue tomorrow.” Tang Zhenhua patted his shoulder and left.

Right now, Lan Xuanyu was only looking forward to the day when he could go to the Elven Planet !

This mecha piloting was not something that could be mastered overnight. Although he had the foundation of piloting a spacecraft, these two were very different. The key was that his hands could not keep up with his brain, and his body could not keep up with his judgment. Just this aspect alone required a lot of time to practice.

The atmosphere among the first years was especially good. The victory this time had greatly stimulated everyone’s enthusiasm for cultivation. They had beaten the entire Outer Court, so of course they had to maintain this honor. Hence, everyone cultivated with all their might.

Finally, it was time to set off. When Lan Xuanyu received the news that they were about to set off for the Elven Planet the next day, he was moved to tears!

The feeling of being abused every day was simply too unpleasant. Although during this process, he gradually began to feel like he was more in control of his balance and the cumbersome white mecha, he was finally able to resist his teacher’s attacks for a while longer. However, the outcome would not change. Furthermore, Tang Zhenhua’s attacks became stronger, to the extent that he didn’t have the energy to practice forging for the past ten days. He felt dizzy every day. Only by consuming an Vermillion Fruit in the Sea God Lake to cultivate could he feel slightly comforted.

He continuously stimulated his bloodline and increased the speed at which he absorbed life energy. In just half a month, Lan Xuanyu had already gained quite a bit. Not only did his soul power increase by one rank, but his bloodline vortex had also become more solid. When he tried to perform the Dragon God Transformation, he could clearly maintain it much longer than before .

Early in the morning, the soul bus was already waiting in front of the main teaching block. Other than Qian Lei, who was in seclusion, all the first years boarded the bus.
