Chapter 197: The Running Man



Eureka, who was originally surprised by Honghong's tone of voice, suddenly changed his expression when he heard the words, and his eyes were fixed on the line at the bottom of the data box in the lower left corner of the screen.

The numbers showing the percentage of the mecha's operating energy were jumping wildly like crazy, and the energy bar that he saw this morning still had 79% now had only 9% left!

No! Only 7%!

Eureka's eyes were bloodshot, and for a moment he forgot to move. He only had time to witness a string of numbers jumping and collapsing right under his nose...

6%! 5%! 4%!

3%! 2%!

1%!

There was a crackling sound - Eureka stared at the screen, and his two big brown fists clenched unconsciously, making a crisp sound.

Finally, the numbers stopped jumping.

Stopped at 1%!

Eureka suddenly loosened his hands and let out a long breath.

In just three seconds, he seemed to be playing a game of chess with a huge beast.

Only those who own a mecha know how important this 1% is.

Once the energy core that drives the mecha and allows it to operate is exhausted, it will directly shatter into ashes.

Without energy, the mecha will automatically go into hibernation and all functions will be inoperable, including the oxygen circulation system will automatically stop, and even the hatch cannot be opened.

Until - someone uses a professional unlocking key to open the hatch from the outside, or the energy is automatically restored to above 0, or the energy core is replenished.

But these methods all take a certain amount of time, and no matter how strong a human being is, he or she cannot survive in an oxygen-free environment.

Therefore, generally people will send their mechas to the military for recharging when the mecha’s energy is about 30% left.

Except for the first two years after the fourth-generation mechas came into the world, in the past four thousand years, there has never been any news of anyone suffocating to death in the cockpit because the mecha's energy was exhausted.

That was close!

Eureka silently covered her chest.

By the way, why did this energy core suddenly leak energy?

Thinking of this, Eureka's eyes suddenly opened. Oh no!

Eureka glanced at Shi Yuqing, whose eyes were closed on the screen, and immediately frowned and pressed the emergency hatch button. He then quickly opened the co-pilot door and jumped out.

What Eureka didn't see was that the moment he opened the hatch, a piece of data in the lower left corner of the virtual screen jumped quietly, "Match: 100%"!

After Shi Yuqing in the main cockpit was sent out of the cabin door by the system, a red metal hand caught her in time.

Due to insufficient energy, the mecha's movements were quite slow, and Eureka could only stand on the black soil and wait for the mecha's palm to touch the ground.

"Hey, Lin, I'm afraid we have to cancel our previous bet. Um, I have a problem here... It's with Honghong's energy core. Suddenly... the student I was with seemed to faint..."

Eureka looked at the approaching red handheld device, took two steps forward, and flatly rejected the offer from the other end of the screen. "No, I can take her there myself... Okay, okay, let's talk later!"

Eureka felt Shi Yuqing's carotid artery and felt the beating strong under her fingertips.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing her sweaty cheeks and shirt, he immediately took off the only piece of clothing on his body and covered her with it.

Then, he opened his arms and took Shi Yuqing out from the red machine's palm.

Eureka moved her right index finger slightly, and the 19-meter-tall mecha disappeared instantly.

The next moment, a half-naked man appeared on the black soil, running wildly with a girl in his arms...

When Eureka arrived near the time-space transfer array, he was suddenly overwhelmed by a strong sense of crisis, and then he found that he could not move at all!

The next second, his arms felt light, and the girl in his arms was gone!
