Ling Luo laughed in anger: "Didn't you hear I already paid? Even if it's robbery, shouldn't it be her robbing me?!"

Ling Ya said calmly, "I don't want to hurt your feelings with my words, but you really don't have the ability to use this mecha, so you might as well—"

Ling Luo shrugged: "It's true that I can't use it now, but what if I have the opportunity to use it in the future?"

Zhou Xiaoxiao scoffed, "Don't dream about it. You have double F aptitude. Even if you get into the Hailuo Military Academy, you'll never have the chance to use it!"

Ling Luo blinked and smiled, "Oh, that's fine, I can take it apart and play with it."

"You!" Zhou Xiaoxiao wanted nothing more than to rush forward and tear Ling Luo's face off.

Ling Luo's tone suddenly changed, and she said, "However, if you really like it that much, how about this: you kneel down and beg me, and I'll let you have it at the original price, okay?"

Zhou Gan couldn't stand it anymore: "Ling Luo, don't go too far!"

Ling Luo sneered: "I'm going too far? I bought my mecha, and I was just keeping to myself. But as soon as you came in, you started calling me trash and mocking me, and then you arrogantly tried to steal my things. Who's really going too far here?!"

"you!"

"What? You think you can just rob me because I'm not willing to give it up?! But there are bodyguards in the store, do you dare to rob me?"

Upon hearing this, the staff member next to him frowned, but before he could speak, Zhou Gan and the others immediately explained, "That's absolutely not what we meant."

This mecha shop is a branch operated by the Mecha Research Institute, which is under the jurisdiction of the Empire.

Offending the Mecha Research Institute is tantamount to offending the Empire.

Their Zhou family was just a minor, nameless powerful family in the empire; how could they dare to confront the empire?

The staff member hummed in agreement.

Ling Luo snorted, ignored them, put the mecha into her spatial ring, and turned to leave.

Zhou Xiaoxiao stomped her foot angrily: "Brother, Sister Xiaoya, look at her!"

Zhou Ya comforted her, "Alright, there are many good level one mechs in this world, let's look at others."

"But--"

Even so, she was still unwilling to give up.

Zhou Gan said coldly, "School is about to start. With her qualifications, her life at school will definitely not be easy. Since she doesn't give us any face at all, we should just ignore her when she asks us for help in the future."

Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately beamed: "That's right, even if she kneels down and begs me, I will never help her, hmph!"

After returning to the hotel, Ling Luo first went online to learn about the characteristics, materials, driving principles, and manufacturing process of the mecha.

It was discovered that the manufacturing principles and structures of mechs in the astral world and magical artifacts in the cultivation world are not very similar.

Comparatively speaking, the magical artifacts in the cultivation world are much simpler in structure than mechs.

However, this does not mean that magical artifacts in the cultivation world are easy to forge.

In the cultivation world, it may take thousands of years to forge a top-grade magic weapon, but if it is well maintained, it can be used for hundreds of thousands of years.

While the creation of mechs also consumes a lot of a martial artist's energy, because their internal structures are basically the same, the energy required is not as great as that required for creating magical artifacts.

However, the mecha's structure is extremely complex, consisting of over ten thousand parts.

Therefore, most of the martial arts mechs on the market are made by countless martial arts masters working together.

After learning all this, Ling Luo went into the mecha cabin and gave it a try.

As soon as I activated the mech, I could feel an energy flowing inside it.

This energy is too much for ordinary people to withstand. Although Ling Luo is not a martial artist and does not have the energy of a martial artist, she is already at the eighth level of Qi Refining. The energy impact inside this level of mecha cannot cause her any harm at all.
