226 Genius Junior Brother (Part 1)

Ning Shi had previously looked up relevant information and knew the situation of the Hilda family’s mecha.

The Hilda family had a total of three models of mechas. They were two beginner mechas, the great sword mecha, and the heavy shield mecha. One was for attacking, while the other was for defending.

The last type was the intermediate mecha, the sword shield mecha. They could attack and defend and were extremely powerful.

According to the battle videos stored in the AI network, the sword shield mecha slashed out with its sword. The huge sword was combined with helium energy, and the power released could easily destroy a mountain.

Sword Shield City was also named so because of the sword shield mecha.

After the battle between the two cities, the resources on the origin planet were almost exhausted. On one hand, the explosion destroyed a lot of mineral resources, resulting in a shortage of materials and energy.

On the other hand, when the nobles fled to other planets in advance, they had taken all the energy materials that had been mined on the origin planet with them.

As mentioned before, the size of a helium ore was naturally formed. To obtain a large piece of helium ore, the only way was to let the helium ore grow slowly with time.

It had only been 177 years since the Big Bang. There wasn’t enough time, and most of the helium energy mines that had been mined were in small particles.

On the other hand, mechas had very high requirements for helium energy. If the size was not enough, it would cause a lack of power in the mecha.

The helium ore for beginner mechas had to be at least the size of a fist, while those for intermediate mechas had to be the size of a soccer ball.

Heliums of this size were common on the origin planet before the Big Bang, so there were many mechas back then. But after the Big Bang, there were very few heliums of this size on the origin planet.

This situation restricted the production of mechas.

This was also why the current Norse Republic only had a few hundred mechas despite having a population of one billion, a sufficient labor force, and gradually recovering its scientific and technological civilization.

The number of intermediate mechas was less than 100.

In this case, one could imagine how precious and rare the sword shield mecha was. To the Hilda family, the sword shield mecha was the support for the continuation of the family, and they would not be used easily.

But now, they had taken a risk to appear in the wilderness.

Although the sword shield mecha was strong, it was not invincible.

They were in the wilderness, the territory of radioactive creatures, including the sky.

The warships of the Norse Republic strictly followed the safe route planned by the satellite map when flying in the wild and did not dare to change the route at will.

This was to avoid the extremely powerful radioactive creatures in the sky.

The Hilda family’s sword shield mecha was flying in the sky as if it was searching for something. It did not have a fixed route at all. If it encountered powerful radioactive creatures, there would be no lack of unnecessary battles.

Ning Shi leaned against a rock and held his breath. After the mecha had flown far away, he stood up and walked towards the stronghold.

Since the Hilda family had deployed the sword shield mecha, something major must have happened in Sword Shield City. He needed to find out what had happened.

At this time, it was not suitable to blindly farm monsters in the forest.

Back at the stronghold, Ning Shi’s smart wristwatch connected to the communication network. He first called Old Li.

However, his phone was turned off.

He started to check the news online.

As soon as he entered the news section of Sword Shield City, he saw a red headline.

“The Hilda family’s first heir, Qadeer Khan, has been assassinated!”

Ning Shi quickly clicked on it. The content of the report was relatively simple, but there was a lot of information.

The report mentioned that late last night, Qadeer Khan was assassinated by unknown people when he was meeting with a mysterious force.

There was news that the one who killed Qadeer Khan might be a radioactive person, and the most important thing was that the heavy shield mecha that Qadeer Khan carried with him was lost on the spot!

Not only had they lost it, but the Hilda family had also lost part of their control over the mecha!

No wonder the Hilda family sent out the sword shield mecha. It was an urgent situation.

Ning Shi muttered to himself, “The family’s heir is dead. One of the mechas is lost. The key is that the control technology has been cracked. If we don’t find out the truth, the Hilda family will probably not be able to sleep and eat in peace.”

Due to the mecha’s massive size, it was inconvenient to carry around. In order to solve this problem in Titanium Pole World, researchers used spatial-folding technology to repeatedly fold a fixed space and confine it to a special material.

This material was called Imprison. It was extremely sturdy and could withstand the tearing of space fluctuations.

The researchers used the Imprison as a key, which was used to store the matching mecha. This type of key was called the mecha key, and it was the physical medium to control the mech.

The mecha master carried the key with him and could summon the mecha to fight at any time.

Generally speaking, even if a mecha’s key was taken away, as long as the core control technology of the mecha was not compromised, no one could take out the mecha from the mecha key or operate it.

If the control technology could not be cracked, the mecha key would be a piece of solid metal material and would be useless.

After the enemy forces got their mecha keys, some of them were ruthless enough to keep them and weaken the other party’s strength, but most of them took them out and negotiated with the other party, hoping that the other party would offer a satisfactory price to redeem their mecha.

But now, the Hilda family’s mecha control technology had been cracked, which meant that the remaining six mechas of the Hilda family were not safe either.

Qadeer Khan’s death was not a big deal. He was just an heir. There were many heirs in the family, but the technology had been cracked. It was no different from a sharp sword hanging over the Hilda family’s head.
