"Fuck."

Inside a house on the top of a mountain in the West City settlement.

This is the location of the settlement's reconnaissance department, and several people controlling the drones widened their eyes.

Through the drone's camera, it was possible to capture a mecha running wildly on a road near the city.

Mecha.

It was also very famous before the end of the world.

Countries have successfully developed the technology and broken through numerous technological blockades.

Looking at so many countries in the world, there are only three countries that have the capability to equip and put into service.

Naturally, there are not many such equipments.

When it was first unveiled, it caused a global sensation and became the dream of countless men.

"This is the Skyfire Armored Mecha that was transferred to Tianwei City."

"Yes, I remember that, too."

"When I heard the news, it was a sensation."

"It is said that when we first arrived, the area surrounding the tarmac was packed with people. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was packed with people."

Here in the reconnaissance department, everyone was shocked.

They knew that there was a mecha in Tianwei City.

Even the settlements have been interested in it, but because it has been too difficult, they have been waiting for an opportunity.

Who the hell would have thought that now someone has gotten there first?

"Quick, report to the leader."

Those who reacted quickly have already reported to Ding Chaohui.

This is the mecha that the leader considers as a treasure.

Some people also realized that didn’t the troublemaker Xu Qiang say that the organization would snatch the mecha?

Afterwards, Xu Qiang's entire team was wiped out.

The settlement has not yet digested this news.

For the leader, the death of Xu Qiang's entire team was a huge loss.

The news hasn’t even been digested yet, and the mecha has already been released?

Was it Xu Qiang’s deception, or... did someone really get the mecha?

There are no secrets in the settlement.

Before the news reached Ding Chaohui, many extraordinary people knew about it.

Even in the Extraordinary Alliance group, live broadcast was carried out via drone.

"Fuck, who is this guy? He actually drives a mecha."

"This Skyfire Mech has been in the city for several years and has always been ownerless, but no one has the ability to take it. Tsk tsk, the person driving it in front of me is simply extremely powerful."

"That's not right. Not everyone can drive the Skyfire Mecha. It requires authorization to activate."

"Now that you mention it, I remember that when the mecha was first introduced, its operating system was introduced. It required military authorization to upload personal information to the mecha and cloud space database before it could be used. The question is, how did the other party make the mecha move?"

"Could it be that the pilot of this mecha is still alive?"

"It's very possible, otherwise it can't be explained."

"You're kidding. Under the apocalypse, how could this driver be so lucky to still be alive and make it to this day? The probability is much smaller than the probability of winning a 5 million lottery ticket."

"You are stupid. If you can crack its operating system, can't you drive it?"

"You idiot above, this is the military's top operating system. Does that mean you can crack it if you can? Not to mention the lack of talent in this apocalyptic world, even in peacetime, you won't find someone so awesome to crack it."

"Anyway, I can't figure out how the other party got the mecha from the zombies and was able to drive it."

"I can only shout 666~"

There was a huge quarrel among the group of extraordinary people.

It seems that this is an unsolvable problem.

No wonder they couldn't guess it.

Even if Zhou Qiang didn't have special talent fragments that could synthesize all kinds of top-level talents, he would have no solution to this mecha.

Even if the top experts on Earth today were asked to crack it, it might take them one or two years to crack something that is decades ahead of the times.

Ding Zhaohui reacted quickly.

When he saw the mecha through the live broadcast, he was so angry that he smashed the glass of red wine in his hand.

"Who is it?"

He roared, his face ferocious.

He had considered this mecha to be in his pocket from a long time ago.

But now, someone has taken the lead.

Why don't you make him vomit blood?

"Call Wei Zhong over."

Ding Zhaohui gritted his teeth.

A moment later, Wei Zhong came running over. Before the end of the world, he was a military officer engaged in mecha research, but he was just an ordinary researcher.

"Chief, you called me?"

Wei Zhong was nervous. He didn't know why the leader suddenly called him.

Ding Zhaohui pointed at the Skyfire mecha in the drone camera and said, "Think about it, who else in Tianwei City can crack this mecha?"

Wei Zhong was also confused.

How does he know who else in Tianwei City is engaged in this business?

"Chief, the military's confidentiality system, and some of them are confidential researchers, these are not public."

After hesitating for a while, Wei Zhong spoke.

The underlying meaning couldn't be more obvious, it's possible.

Ding Zhaohui frowned and said, "If there really is someone in this field, how long will it take to crack this operating system?"

"Chief, this is hard to say."

Wei Zhong said: "If it is a weapons expert who participated in the research of the Skyfire Mecha, it may take three to several months, or even a year. If it is another series of mecha, it will take longer. After all, each project is independent."

"But Chief, I also returned to Tianwei City because of my annual leave. According to the probability, it is not high."

Ding Zhaohui sneered.

He pointed at the mecha captured by the drone and said, "Then tell me, what's going on?"

Wei Zhong suddenly didn't know what to say.

He really didn't know how to explain this matter.

Wei Zhong was also a little nervous in his heart.

He was able to enjoy the treatment and material things he had now, all because he had the ability to crack this mecha. The leader kept him so that he could crack the mecha when he got it.

But now, he is obviously going to be unemployed.

"You go down!"

Ding Zhaohui's face remained calm.

Not as irritable as before.

After hearing this, Wei Zhong felt as if he had been pardoned and left in a hurry.

Ding Zhaohui looked at the mecha with cold eyes.

He then opened his personal smart terminal and issued an order, saying, "Let two drones continue to conduct reconnaissance on Tianwei City, and one drone will keep an eye on this mecha."

…………

Zhou Qiang didn't expect that this was the first time he drove a mecha out for a stroll.

Just let someone take the photo like that?

Looking at the three drones staring at him, Zhou Qiang didn't know whether he should escape or shoot down the drones?

So, the two sides just stared at each other stupidly for a minute.

Why should I be afraid of them?

Suddenly Zhou Qiang reacted.

He was in the cockpit, so even if he was filmed, no one would be able to see who he was.

Besides, what if you really saw it?

After thinking it through, Zhou Qiang didn't care at all that the drone was monitoring him.

Watch it if you like.

Zhou Qiang started the car again and drove wildly on the road.

At the same time, in order to train his evasiveness, Zhou Qiang also drove the mecha to constantly avoid obstacles.

There are not many things that a mecha that is just over six meters tall can regard as obstacles.

At this time, two drones left, leaving only one staring at Zhou Qiang.

Zhou Qiang also knew this.

The mecha can lock onto them, and Zhou Qiang will know their every move.

A 360-degree view without blind spots appeared on Zhou Qiang’s cockpit light screen.

"Try melee mode."

The barrel of the machine gun on Zhou Qiang's right arm retracted. When Zhou Qiang touched his calf, a one-and-a-half-meter-long sword popped out and was held in Zhou Qiang's hand.

The next moment, the internal structure of the sword was activated and it was ejected into a five-meter-long sword.

"This design is awesome!"

Zhou Qiang also wanted to do a 666 to Jiang Aiguo. Although this would weaken the rigidity of the long sword, this retractable design brought more flexibility.

While running, Zhou Qiang swung the sword in his hand.

A heavy truck parked on the side of the road had a layer of glass cut off from the cab to the rear by a five-meter-long knife.

"666~"

"This combat power is off the charts."

"Who is this guy? He knows people are filming him, but he still dares to do this?"

"I think he's just showing it to us."

"Haha, they ignored the fact that so many of us were watching."

"I've seen mecha demonstrations before, but they were definitely not as smooth as this one. The person driving this mecha must be a powerful transcendent."

"Who would have the last laugh if this mecha fought the Titan zombies?"

"I heard that a zombie tide is forming. If we have this mecha, how many zombies can we disperse and divert?"

"If I could pilot this mecha, I would be willing to die."

In the Extraordinary Alliance group, the extraordinary people who were watching the live broadcast were all drooling with envy.

For them, even if they have already become extraordinary people.

But I can't stop the desire for mecha in my heart.

Zhou Qiang didn't know all this.

After playing for half an hour, this kind of high-intensity battle consumes a huge amount of electricity.

It was fully charged before, but Zhou Qiang worked on it for more than an hour at a high intensity and it lost half of its power.

Relying solely on breakthroughs in battery technology still makes it impossible for mechas to truly exert their strongest combat power.

In the future, when controlled nuclear fusion can be achieved, that will be the time when mechas dominate the land.

However, three hours of high-intensity power is enough.

Zhou Qiang didn't dwell on this issue.

Instead, he looked up and looked at the drone in the sky.

"After watching this drama for so long, it's time to end it."

The performance and melee combat capabilities of the mecha were tested.

Ranged combat has not been tested yet.

Missiles are too luxurious. Using them on a drone is overestimating it.

so……

"Skyfire, lock onto this drone and shoot it down with your machine gun."

With artificial intelligence, Zhou Qiang doesn't need to raise his arms and aim the machine gun at it stupidly.

With the assistance of artificial intelligence, just one command is enough.

The moment the command was issued, the machine gun barrel that had just retracted extended again and was adjusted into position within milliseconds.

"Oh my god, he's not going to take out the drone, is he?"

"It seems to be true."

"Everyone keep your eyes open and watch the machine guns fire. Don't miss such a wonderful shot."

"Haha, this guy is so arrogant. Isn't he afraid that the leader will know about it and regard it as a challenge?"

Looking at the extraordinary people in the drone live broadcast, they were first surprised, and then gloated.

The person controlling the drone responded immediately.

Just quickly pull up the drone and then dodge in an S-turn.

Zhou Qiang doesn't care what they think.

At the moment of locking, the machine gun that had been silent for several years roared.

Three shots in a row.

This kind of civilian drone flies too slowly, and the person controlling it needs to know how to maneuver and dodge.

But in the face of such advanced fire control, it is nothing but rubbish.

boom!

The drone exploded into countless parts in the sky.

In order to prevent the opponent's drone from coming back, Zhou Qiang jumped out of the cockpit immediately after blowing up the drone, slapped his hand on the armed mecha, and put it into the storage space.

At the same time, he took out an electric motorcycle, got on it and drove very fast on the road.

After getting some distance away, it drove directly into a residential building on the side of the road.

Stow the electric motorcycle into storage space.

Zhou Qiang climbed to the roof of the residential building.

really.

The two drones in the sky that had previously scouted Tianwei City returned again, apparently looking for mechas.

Oh, go find it.

Zhou Qiang sneered.

After staying here for half an hour, the two drones finally gave up the search.

Zhou Qiang was sure that there must be many small question marks in their hearts.

Is this where the mecha went?

It took less than five minutes from the time one drone was blown up to the time these two returned.

No matter how fast the mecha is, it is impossible for it to disappear in five minutes.

They never dreamed that the mecha was stored in the storage space by Zhou Qiang like this.

Before dark.

Zhou Qiang drove his modified heavy truck all the way back to the hotel in Tianwei City.

"The gains from this trip are far more than just a mecha."

In the room.

Zhou Qiang was so happy when he looked through his harvest.

The benefit of the flying dragon zombies' chaos was that there were many mutated zombies.

Not to mention the mammoths and velociraptors, there are three parasitic crab zombies.

[Second-level parasitic crab zombie fragments: 7]

Unlocking is not far away.

However, Zhou Qiang's focus was on other gains.

[Level 3 Crawler Fragment: 5]

[Second-level sickle corpse fragments: 11]

[Level 3 Howler Fragment: 1]

What a great harvest.

I haven't even bothered with the crawlers yet, but I already have 5 fragments.

The sickle corpse, which is at the second-level combat power ceiling, finally collected the 10 fragments needed to unlock it.

This is what makes Zhou Qiang happiest.

It’s really not easy.

Don't just look at the ten pieces, there are not many sickle corpses and it is difficult to spot them.

"Unlock the Scythe Corpse."

Zhou Qiang gave the order without hesitation.

[Unlock by consuming ten sickle corpse fragments! ]

【whether】

After confirmation, the ten pieces of sickle corpse fragments disappeared.

The icon of the sickle corpse becomes brighter.

It means it can be manufactured.

"Create ten sickle corpses."

Following the instructions, after deducting 10 million funds and 10,000 manufacturing points, light particles appeared.

Three minutes later.

Ten sickle corpses stood in front of Zhou Qiang.

This time, Zhou Qiang could finally observe them closely and study in detail what materials the bone knives that emerged from their right arms were made of.

The closer he got, the sharper Zhou Qiang felt the bone knife.

It’s hard to imagine that a bone blade is much sharper and harder than a metal blade.

When the Scythe Corpse is not attacking, its arms are sometimes raised high and sometimes hanging on the ground, dragging on the ground because they are too long.

Once they are alert, their arms are raised high.

Like a sickle.

That’s where their name comes from.

Zhou Qiang took out an ordinary axe and placed it on the table.

He wanted to see how hard and sharp this bone knife was.

This was eliminated by the early Mammoth brothers.

"Try this knife."

Zhou Qiang gave orders to one of the sickle corpse minions.

The sickle corpse brother was also decisive. He walked over like a machine, then raised the mutated bone knife on his right arm and chopped hard at the axe.

"when!"

The loud sound of metal echoed here.
