He couldn't help but wonder, if Su Bai hadn't been the team leader, but had been allowed to participate directly... wouldn't it have been much more stable?!

Unfortunately... there is no if.

What's more, if Su Bai had been invited to participate as a player rather than a team leader, he might not have agreed.

Just to let Su Bai be the leader, they gave up everything they had, even handing over their only star core.

"By the way, Master Su, we have already prepared the things. Come with me to take them away." Thinking of the star core, Cui Xuanlin remembered that he had not given the things to Su Bai yet.

It would be bad if Su Bai thought they regretted their decision.

He was about to turn and leave the lounge when he reached the door, but then he remembered something and looked at everyone. "You guys can rest today. We'll continue training in the maintenance room where we were yesterday."

Seeing this, Su Bai followed him out. He had indeed been coveting the star core for a long time.

Seeing that both of them had left, Gan Yue did not stay in the lounge. After telling Chu Ran to go and have a rest, he left the lounge.

There were only four people left in the lounge again.

But this time it's different from before.

Although it was quiet, Chu Ran was still happy that Su Baili came to see her receive the award.

Although Ouyang Xuan looked down on Tian's opponents, he still secretly studied the most outstanding aspects of their mechanical repair skills.

The words have been spoken. If something goes wrong, it will be so embarrassing.

Ouyang Xuan couldn't let this happen.

As for the Nangong siblings, Cui Xuanlin's words were still lingering in their minds.

His face was full of bitterness.

They understood that what Cui Xuanlin and Gan Yue had just said clearly meant that they no longer had any expectations of them.

Knowing that you can't win the championship is completely different from feeling that others don't have expectations of you.

This also indirectly shows that they really don't have much potential.

......

The lounge was not far from the research laboratory of the Imperial Capital Mechanical Repair Association. Su Bai followed Cui Xuanlin through the equipment storage area outside the laboratory and entered a secret door.

Once opened, the most advanced machines inside began to operate non-stop.

In the two giant glass containers around them, a star-shaped stone shimmering with starlight was hanging in the center, and on the light screen outside, a pile of data was sliding continuously.

Behind these two plates, a metal square box was lying quietly in the deepest part of the laboratory.

"Master Su is also interested in these things?" Seeing Su Bai enter the laboratory and staring at the data on the screen, Cui Xuanlin's mouth curled up unconsciously: "This is all research we are conducting to achieve the popularization of mecha. Starting from the star power contained in the star stone, we can analyze the key to the activation of mecha."

"We've made some progress, and we might be able to store some star power within the mecha as a backup power source, similar to the star patterns on rare armor."

"But these are our machines. I believe Master Su will not leak them out."

Cui Xuanlin's face was full of pride when he talked about this research.

This has always been the dream of their Mechanic Association and is also the most important research!

A truly universal mecha!
