Chapter 15 Chapter 15 The Slayer.
The mecha driven by the pirates is an illegally modified Killer model, carrying lethal weapons and extremely destructive.
It is fast enough and maneuverable enough to destroy a starship's energy tank in seconds.
Even just one would be a devastating blow to the Wuhai.
What's more, there are three of them.
Tao Ying could only lead them away temporarily.
At first, they discovered that Tao Ying was driving a perceptual mecha, and the other pirates were very cautious and did not take the initiative to attack.
But after testing for a while, he probably found out that Tao Ying was still a novice, so his attacks became more fierce.
Tao Ying was a little overwhelmed.
"Where did this newbie come from? Did he accidentally get in the driver's seat? You little brat who can't even control the joystick wants to fight us?"
The laughter of the space pirates came from the public channel.
Tao Ying gritted her teeth, beads of sweat streaming down her forehead.
No extra energy to speak.
The perceptual mecha consumes a lot of mental energy, and the fact that Hengwo is missing an energy core further increases Tao Ying's mental energy consumption.
Her mental strength was like a string that was constantly being pulled, twitching from time to time.
The mental tentacles on the head seemed to sense Tao Ying's condition and were tentatively adjusting the way they contacted her mental power to ease her driving pressure as much as possible.
A communication came from the starship.
"Unlocker, hold on a little longer. Once the rescue team arrives, you will disconnect the mental connection. Don't force yourself. Understand?"
In the midst of her busy schedule, Tao Ying managed to reply with the word "OK" with her mouth.
No need to remind her, she wants to disconnect the mental connection and run away immediately, thank you.
Is driving a mecha her job?
And he fought three pirates the first time he drove a mecha, are you serious?
The optical computer seemed to have given up on reminding her of her physical condition and was now spinning in circles.
I just chopped off the signal jammer with a knife, and now the communication near the starship should have returned to normal.
Hold on a little longer...
Tao Ying's weak breathing suddenly stabilized.
As soon as her mental power was connected, a large amount of mental power shock from the mecha made her feel like vomiting.
But as her connection with the mecha became closer and closer, the feeling of vomiting gradually disappeared, replaced by a sense of security as if she was wrapped up, integrated with the mecha, and returned to the mother body.
She became more and more proficient in operating the mecha. All the driving methods emerged in her mental power.
Little by little.
It was like an instruction manual, imprinted in her mind.
Tao Ying had never been interested in mecha driving, and even this time he had to sit in the driver's seat only because of the circumstances.
But at this moment, she seemed to have become a real pilot. She had an inexplicable urge not to leave this position.
She was born to be here.
I don't want to give up the driving seat to anyone.
Perhaps after coordinating with Hengwo's mental power, her spirit was also affected.
Tao Ying's body was extremely tired, but her mind seemed to be filled with caffeine and became clearer and clearer.
She heard the emotions conveyed by "Hengwo".
I want to fight.
——You want to fight?
Tao Ying tentatively asked this to the other end of the mental connection.
The spiritual tentacles above his head sensed Tao Ying's question and shook happily twice.
I want to fight.
The mental tentacles danced excitedly.
It has been waiting for ten years, perhaps even longer since the day it was manufactured.
Please control me. Please fight with me. SPIRAL.
I've been waiting for you. At the end of an infinite spiral.
"Oh, okay..." Tao Ying nodded expressionlessly.
What do you engineers at Baishi Industry do all day? It doesn’t matter what my personality parameters have been adjusted to.
Tao Ying complained in her heart while avoiding the pirates' attack again.
By the way, is it because the mental connection is more stable that her mental power seems to be inexplicably lighter?
I don’t even know when it started, but facing the attack of the pirates, she was able to free up one hand to wipe the sweat off her face?
I really wanted to quit immediately, but there was no news from the rescue team.
"careful!"
There was a sound of wind behind him, carrying murderous intent.
Tao Ying had no time to turn around, so he could only lock onto the armor behind him and bear it with all his might.
The next second, the pirate's heavy blade smashed down fiercely.
"boom--"
Hengwo was thrown hundreds of meters away.
There was a trembling feeling deep in my spine.
Tao Ying steadied himself and swallowed the blood in his throat.
My friend, it’s not time to vomit blood yet.
Tao Yingsheng closed his eyes in despair.
You will faint when you see blood.
·
"Hasn't the leader contacted yet?"
"No, everyone on the starship is as good as dead." The pirate touched the joystick boredly.
The three pirates sighed in unison.
Their group of space pirates received an order, which required them to receive and transport a mecha to a designated location, while erasing all witnesses.
Three massacrers were assigned to be responsible for external security.
According to the original plan, everything should be over at this point.
The mecha was delivered, they received the final payment, and Meimei left.
But unlike the expected time, there was no contact from the starship.
"Is the leader going to be in trouble?"
"I just feel that this list is not that simple. I asked the chief but he didn't say anything."
"What do I do now? Contact the employer first?"
Three minutes later.
The pirate slapped the cockpit.
"The employer threatened us that if we didn't destroy the body, we wouldn't receive the final payment."
"What? He wants us to kill the leader and all his companions on the starship?!"
"That……"
The three pirates looked at each other for a moment and reached a consensus.
The employer pays too much.
Although there are companions on the starship, if they die, the balance can be divided equally among the three of them.
He's a person with no sense of morality.
The three pirates made the sign of the cross above their heads and prayed to the God of the Universe.
"Let everyone on this starship be buried with our companions."
After praying with absolutely no sincerity, their gaze returned to the sole mecha.
A pure black mecha.
The black body is constructed of metal with streamlined lines, beautiful and mysterious.
A sense of life emanated from the hard metal.
I can’t tell what model it is, but you can tell at a glance that it’s not a cheap mass-produced mecha.
A pure combat mecha.
When they first saw this mecha, the pirates shuddered instinctively, and a chill ran down their spines.
But - before they could be afraid, the mecha on the starship -
Slipped.
The mecha is a good mecha, but the pilot is too weak.
"And there aren't any long-range weapons at all."
The black mecha's only weapon is the thermal knife in its hand.
Although the thermal knife is extremely hard, it is a melee weapon and is not a threat to small mechas like theirs with extremely high maneuverability.
And they were fully armed.
It's no surprise to defeat it, right?
Two pirates slowly approached, and another pirate set up a cannon towards Tao Ying.
At the same time, on the other side, Tao Ying observed the battle situation, thought for a moment, and then patted the operating table helplessly.
"I really can't help it. Who told me to give my life for you?"
Just now, these pirates were clearly planning to blow up the starship. If she hadn't reacted quickly and used her mecha to stop them, the starship would have become space junk.
Now that she's here, if she doesn't force herself on him, she'll still die, right?
So what she was about to do next was forced.
…She definitely didn’t drive the mecha voluntarily.
But if Tao Ying could be aware of her own expression at this moment, she would find out——
She is smiling.
His face was filled with excitement. His whole body was filled with excitement.
Laughing.
[The spiritual resonance index continues to rise - 30% - 80% - 100%.]
【——Resonance Aplished.】
Neural signals flash like stars, and consciousness flows in an electronic torrent.
The sound of heartbeats and the roar of mechas dance together.
She heard the mech's breathing.
Ancient, cold steel.
Cooling fluid in the blood vessels.
They blend into one.
Tao Ying's mental power resonated strongly with Hengwo.
The speed of the mecha suddenly increased tenfold.
【Received a new private channel contact. 】
"Hello, this is the rescue team hired by Bai's Industries. Are you related to the Wuhai? What are your specific coordinates?"
Tao Ying didn't answer for a long time, and a puzzled voice came from the other end of the headset.
"Um? Pilot? This is the rescue team. May I ask your coordinates...?"
Tao Ying opened her eyes and saw the entire universe before her.
The massive amount of mental information almost shattered her consciousness.
But no. She held on.
She stood in the universe, raised her hand, grasped the mecha's heart, and plucked one of them.
"coordinate?"
Tao Ying regained consciousness, gripped the joystick tightly, and said solemnly.
"Oh, yes, the coordinates."
The next second, a flash of light erupted from Hengwo's chest, like a sudden supernova. The darkness of the universe was instantly torn apart, and the dazzling white-gold color was so bright that it was impossible to open your eyes.
In the silence, Tao Ying slowly said, "Now it's very clear, right? The coordinates."
The rescue team was stunned by the dazzling light in the distance.
"Ming, it's clear..."
It couldn't be clearer.
But what did this pilot just do?
She chopped off a power core? Just to send them the coordinates?
Although this is indeed very efficient and they can directly find the right direction, but, ah?
What kind of human would choose this method of sending coordinates?!
Tao Ying cut off the contact.
The pirates in the public channel were still laughing at her dying struggle, but Tao Ying's heart was calm.
Perceptual mechas are driven by mental power.
Compared with traditional mechanical mecha, its advantage lies in mapping speed.
There are still about ten minutes until the reinforcements arrive.
Now, she's going to make a scene.
·
The energy core explosion not only transmitted the coordinates to the rescue team, but also attracted the attention of the nearby planetary monitoring center.
"Attention! Be on guard! Four unregistered mechas have appeared at GX003-A3-B5-C24!"
"Among them, there are three Slayers, and the other is of unknown model. Preliminary analysis indicates it's a sentient mecha. All departments, please prepare for battle."
"Wait... wait a moment. I just received a call from Bai Industries. The black mecha is an experimental machine under their jurisdiction."
"What? How could an experimental machine be activated in a place like this?!"
"How should I know!"
The people at the monitoring center were so busy making phone calls and notifying their colleagues that they couldn't even maintain their work attitude and almost burst into swearing.
The police force on their planet is simply unable to support the situation, so they can only watch or seek protection from higher-level organizations.
In addition to official monitoring organizations, civilian monitoring organizations naturally also noticed the anomalies in the universe. After they released the photos, they were enthusiastically forwarded by mecha enthusiasts.
[Family, I photographed a combat mecha near the nameless star. I've never seen this model before. Is there anyone who knows about it who can help me take a look?]
[I haven't seen it either, same question.]
[Same question +1]
[+1]
[It seems to be a sentient mecha.]
[But there's no Iowa Tech logo. Could it be an experimental model?]
[Hmm, hard to say. The design is very simple, with a black optical stealth coating on the surface, which has a bit of the style of Baishi Industrial.]
[Bogong can only produce old-style mechas. They've been completely outclassed by Iowa Technology in recent years.]
Someone dug up a not-so-clear photo.
I remember that the "Hengwo" statue at the Laiji Institute was restored by Bogong. Could it be this statue?
"Are you talking about that abandoned machine that couldn't even start up and was taken away for destruction? How could that be possible?"
It's really strange.
[…It's not very clear in space. Are there any pictures from other angles? By the way, is this a fight with the space pirates? What's going on? Is it a live broadcast?]
Soon, someone uploaded a video with a very unique angle - it seemed to be shot through the porthole on the starship.
In the video, a black mecha is flying away from the starship at a very fast speed. It is light in size and is chasing a yellow "Slayer".
The Slayer was originally a combat-type mecha. It was not large in size and was known for its flexibility. It was always the one chasing others on the battlefield. Now it was being chased by this mecha?
How good is the performance of this black mecha!
As the two Slayers approached, the black mech dodged the incoming weapons, darted around, and slid past the yellow "Slayer" at breakneck speed. Simultaneously, the black mech's highly rigid hand shell chopped through the yellow Slayer's identification device.
Hand shell - thermal knife, this is the only weapon on the black mecha.
They didn't have any shells loaded, but they were still able to fool the fully armed pirates.
The energy core burst out with even greater energy, and several cold blue lights flashed.
The black mecha instantly appeared next to the killer.
It attacked directly with its thermal blade, cutting off the killer's energy lines and removing its limbs and weapons.
Ten seconds.
It only took ten seconds.
It sank two mechas in a row.
As a provocation, he used the enemy's energy core to set off fireworks in space.
The live broadcast room was silent.
I'm thinking of an idiom, but I'm not sure if I should mention it. [The phrase "Pao Ding butchers an ox" appears unrelated and likely comes from a different source.]
This disintegration process is a bit like me eating a crab: one leg, one leg, and then another leg.
【Suddenly I wanted to eat crabs, so I ordered some takeout. 】
【Order takeout +1. 】
There was only one enemy mech left. A blue and a black mech faced off in space.
[The pilot inside the black mecha must be a veteran, right? He knows so much about the Slayer's structure.]
[Not only that. The opponent is not an ordinary Slayer, but a Slayer that has been modified many times, with many layers of armor added. The structure and strength have been greatly enhanced based on actual combat.]
[In other words, the black mecha pilot not only needs to know the structure of the Slayer, but also needs to figure out the armor's modification structure in a short period of time? That's terrifying.]
[This is a veteran, a first-class pilot for sure.]
【But the battle situation is still not optimistic.】
"Huh? What's going on? Boss, please explain. Didn't we already kill two? It's impossible that we can't win in a one-on-one fight, right?"
The remaining blue Slayer has been dodging, avoiding a direct attack, hoping to stall for time. Look closely, this perceptual mech is constantly performing high-precision operations—which is impressive, but consumes a significant amount of mental energy.
The boss sighed.
[At this rate, its pilot won't be able to hold out for much longer.]

I heard that although the sword is named "Bu Hui", its previous owners have all regretted something very much and spent half their lives on it.
Lu Zhenzhen refused to believe it.

"If you don't pursue this, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Lu Zhenzhen slapped her forehead, sneaked into Feixing Tower, and did a lot of stupid things in pursuit of the zither player.
Unfortunately, the musician was devoted to his practice, hoping to ascend to heaven.
Not practicing the ruthless path is better than practicing the ruthless path.
Lu Zhenzhen really thought, then let’s not force it.
