Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Is this team really okay?
Fund their academy's mecha team?
What a minority language this is.
Assistant Professor Bai pushed his glasses up in confusion, took out his laptop and started looking through the records.
"Are you talking about our academy? We have a team that signed up for the league: Zhou Zhen, Sun Dang, and Yao Mengtao."
“They are quite good.”
But even so, it took Assistant Coach Bai and the External Relations Department a long time to agree that they could participate in the league.
I haven't heard of any sponsors?
Although Assistant Instructor Bai felt strange, he still helped Irina find them.
"Those three people on the court now."
Irina looked in the direction that Assistant Instructor Bai pointed. There was a boy with blond hair and a slightly pointed face. Another one seemed quite serious and steady, and should be more reliable. There was also a red-haired woman with short hair as sharp as a blade. Well, she looked very energetic.
The whole team looks strong.
So this shouldn't be the team she's looking for.
Irina gave the key information: "The person who spoke to me was a woman. Her voice sounded a little weak, but her tone was quite neither humble nor arrogant."
Assistant Teacher Bai's throat moved: "I have a bad feeling."
"Your hunch seems to be right," Ji Yi thought for a moment. "I think I know who you're talking about. It just so happens that there's a 3v3 practice today, and the team you mentioned will be playing. I'm also curious to see how they perform."
Irina crossed her legs and kicked her boots unruly against the partition of the auditorium.
"Okay, I'll sit here and wait."
The students behind him said, "Oh! Did you hear that? Zhou Zhen and the others have signed up for the college league."
"I also heard the president's sister say that she sponsored our college's league team."
"But she also said that she's not sponsoring Zhou Zhen's team. Does our college have other league teams?"
At this moment, the voices of Irina and Ji Yi talking came from the front.
"I remember now. The team I sponsored was called Space Ghost Girls, and the captain seemed to be Bai Ying?"
The sound of dozens of students coughing could be heard from the audience.
"Bai Ying, are you talking about Classmate F with Constitution F?" "I think that's her name." "Oh no, I've been calling her Classmate F with Constitution F for so long I've forgotten her real name."
"But if it's them, the president might be disappointed today, right? Nan Gua and Lin Biege aside, Bai Ying hasn't even been on a plane yet."
"That's right." The students nodded like pecking at rice.
This president must have been tricked. How could he have chosen a team with physical condition F as a sponsor?
Everyone came to the conclusion: "No matter how you think about it, Zhou Zhen and his team are more suitable for investment."
…
Before getting on the mecha, Tao Ying brought a portable medical kit.
Sun Dang happened to be passing by and saw her stuffing the first aid kit into the mecha. He chuckled and said:
"You want to play today? Forget it. Your teammates can be insignificant, but at least they can't hold you back. What can you do if you play?"
Tao Ying was debugging the mecha alone, Lin Biege and Nan Gua were warming up and didn't see what was happening here.
Sun Dang really knows how to choose the time to talk.
Sun Dang: "Why don't you speak?"
Tao Ying was so annoyed that she narrowed her eyes and looked up at the yellow-haired man in front of her.
"Your name is Sun Dang, right? Do you know why we were grouped together?"
Sun Dang was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Tao Ying meant by asking this. He could only reply, "Why?"
"Because the teams were divided by strength by Teacher Ji. In her eyes, your level is about the same as ours."
"You! You're scolding me? How could our team possibly be on the same level as you?"
Tao Ying said sincerely, "How could that be? I was praising you for being as good as our team. But I think Teacher Ji's grouping is indeed wrong. Oh, don't get me wrong, what I meant is that our team is much better than yours."
Sun Dang raised his voice: "What did you say?"
Tao Ying gave a playful smile: "If you don't believe me, why not give it a try?"
"Just give it a try! Come on!"
Sun Dang angrily gave Tao Ying a thumbs down, climbed onto the mecha and was about to start fighting, but Tao Ying had no intention of starting the game so early.
She gestured to Assistant Coach Bai to pause the game, and Assistant Coach Bai ran over to ask what was going on.
Tao Ying gestured in a friendly manner: "The mecha still needs some adjustments. Please wait for ten minutes."
"Hey, are you scared? And you called a timeout?" Sun Dang started to mock, and there were sparse boos from the court.
Tao Ying had no reaction to this. She climbed onto Lin Biege and Nan Gua's mechas respectively and fine-tuned the system.
Ten minutes later, the other party became impatient.
"What is she doing? Is she fainting in the mecha?"
"How about sending someone to check it out? Lin Biege!"
"Oh, I get it. What's so fierce about it?" Lin Biege was about to enter the mecha to check it when Tao Ying finished debugging and came out.
She almost fell when she came down, but luckily Lin Biege was right below and caught her.
"Take it easy, Captain. Don't fall. It took a lot of effort to heal your broken bones. But what were you doing up there?"
Tao Ying patted her butt.
"It's nothing serious. I just helped you debug the system."
"You also know this?"
“A little bit.”
"Are you really okay?"
“Slightly better.”
"Okay, let's start the game." Lin Biege waved his hand and was the last one to climb onto the mecha.
Ji Yi nodded, and Assistant Instructor Bai announced.
"Six mechas in position. The battle begins!"
Lin Biege had just gotten into the VX-89, pushed the joystick, and was off in a flash. She didn't react until she was in front of Sun Dang and kicked him off guard.
He exclaimed, "Damn, why is the mecha so smooth today?!"
Nan Gua also turned around twice in surprise.
"Yeah, it feels just like in the game."
It’s hard to say what makes it smoother, but the driving experience is much better than before.
Classmates: "Is this really the same mecha we had before? Why does it feel so brand new?"
Assistant Coach Bai suddenly realized that it was no wonder that student F with physical condition had called for a ten-minute timeout.
"I'm afraid it's due to system optimization. It's amazing that the mecha can be adjusted to this level in such a short time."
"System optimization?" Irina, despite being the CEO of Haitai Technology, wasn't familiar with these technical issues. She asked curiously, "Is this difficult?"
"To be able to reach this level in ten minutes is truly impressive," Ji Yi explained. "We used to have relevant technicians within the military who could make fine-tuning adjustments based on specific situations, but it's rare to see results this quickly."
"Yes, this kind of fine-tuning really tests the technician's skills. I've only seen one person who can achieve perfection."
Irina asked curiously, "Who?"
Ji Yi: "She's a well-known mecha system debugger in the underground network, but she hasn't received any orders in over a decade. Everyone suspects she's quit."
Assistant Professor Bai's glasses reflected a light that saw through everything.
"Someone on the Deep Web has been offering a high reward for the true identity of this mecha debugger, but he's never revealed a single clue."
"Everyone suspected it was someone from the mecha dealership who wanted to make some extra money."
Ji Yi interrupted, "I heard she recently went online on the Deep Web."
"Yeah, they were taking orders remotely a few days ago. They took orders worth billions in one go. After debugging, the old mechas are as good as new ones. The news has spread all over the mercenary circle."
Irina: “?”
"Is mecha debugging so profitable?"
"After all, spare parts aren't readily available on the battlefield. When you need them urgently, they might not be available. You can only rely on system debugging," Ji Yi spread his hands. "The first time Adjutant Bai mentioned this person, I thought he was trying to scam me. It wasn't until that time when there were so many parts missing on the battlefield that the mecha couldn't start at all. With the idea of giving it a last-ditch effort, I asked that debugger to remotely debug the mecha."
"The results astounded me. I dragged the incomplete Inferno, which had only its energy core left after her adjustments, and directly killed two S-rank Zerg Queens."
"I've only killed seven of them in my life, and they were really tough battles."
"If it weren't for this debugger, Adjutant Bai and I might have died there."
Ji Yi's eyes grew distant, as if he had returned to the front lines of the Second Galaxy. Irina turned her head thoughtfully.
The game goes on.
In front, Zhou Zhen and Lin Biege were tied.
In the back, Nan Gua protected Tao Ying, and Sun Dang came over to harass her from time to time.
There is no need to worry about Lin Biege. Thanks to the devilish training in Fire, she is already very familiar with how to drive the VX-89.
After the previous battle, Sun Dang had been a little afraid of Nan Gua and did not dare to launch a frontal attack.
As long as Tao Ying stayed behind Nan Gua obediently, Sun Dang would be no match for the explosive Nan Gua.
That leaves one question.
Tao Ying looked at the third new member of the enemy team, Yao Mengtao.
Yao Mengtao has not fought against them yet, and Tao Ying has not found her battle record.
Tao Ying wanted to stay hidden for a while and observe her fighting style.
But Yao Mengtao, like her, has been wandering behind the front line.
The air inside the mecha was a bit stuffy. Tao Ying took two breaths, took out the oxygen tank from the medical kit, connected it to the mecha, and took two deep breaths.
Keep your head clear and keep thinking.
What is Yao Mengtao's purpose in not taking any action?
Is it because you think their team is too weak and not worth attacking, or is it because you like to control the overall situation?
Or did he want to wear down their physical strength first, and when Lin Biege was tired, he would find her weakness and kill her with one blow?
There is not enough data for analysis yet.
Sun Dang couldn't find a breakthrough in Nan Gua, so he turned to attack Lin Biege together with Zhou Zhen.
Tao Ying pondered and reminded: "Lin Biege, retreat!"
"See! I'm not afraid of this level of attack at all." Lin Biege grinned confidently, VX-89 supported himself on the ground with his hands, and jumped upside down on the ground.
With a very tricky posture, he kicked Sun Dang's mecha ten meters away.
Lin Biege's VX-89 quickly retreated to his teammates' side and chuckled, "Cool, isn't it? Street dance moves. I just learned them the other day."
Nan Gua gave a thumbs up: "Super cool, I want to draw it."
Tao Ying and Lin Biege reached out their hands simultaneously, in perfect sync: "Stop it now, and draw after the competition is over."
"I understand. I'm just expressing my inner feelings," Nan Gua explained. "This is our first real-life collaboration. I'm going to sweat it out in the storm until the very end."
"The weather is fine, there's no storm."
"It's a metaphor, understand?"
"Then you say it would be more appropriate to face the sandstorm."
Tao Ying nodded, stopping the argument between the two: "Anyway, keep up the good work."
"Mr. Big, let's go!"
Lin Biege: "Oh! It's on fire!"
The two mechas raised their right hands.
So what everyone saw was that the two VX-89s were fighting and suddenly bumped fists in the middle of the field.
Yao Mengtao couldn't help it and finally said the first sentence of the day.
"Where on earth did these weird students get admitted? Why are they all assigned to the same dormitory?"
The students have given up watching the game and started to complain.
“It’s burning, but I don’t know what’s burning.”
"Is this team really okay?"
Assistant Instructor Bai pulled out his intercom with a look of despair and began broadcasting to the entire field: "In the middle of the battle, Nan Gua, Lin Bie Ge, can you guys please pay attention? Bai Ying, you've been stuck in the same spot for ten minutes straight, not moving a centimeter. Yao Mengtao, you too! Zhou Zhen is the only one fighting on the field right now! What are you doing, playing house in mechas?"
"Don't waste electricity, every minute and every second costs money!"
It sounds like the latter sentence is the key point.
Tao Ying's neck was stiff, and she shifted slightly in the driver's seat.
She thought for a moment and said to Assistant Instructor Bai, "Actually, I also think it's not good to stay like this all the time. I think too much and it makes me feel bored. I want to exercise."
Do some exercise?
Assistant Instructor Bai's mind flashed with warning lights, and he quickly said, "Actually, it's fine if you don't move. Don't have any thoughts."
What should I do if I have another fracture and stay in the medical cabin for two months?
Lin Biege also started with a fearful move.
"Shadow, I don't think you need a head-on attack. Today's tactics can be summed up in one word: wait. Wait until I kill Sun Dang, Zhou Zhen, and then Yao Mengtao, and then you two can just win without doing anything. Do you hear me? Don't mess around."
Lin Biege knew their captain too well. Whenever she came up with a plan, the enemy might not be in trouble, but her teammates would most likely be.
Nan Gua concluded: "Although the tactics are conservative, they are effective. Xiaoying can win without any effort."
Tao Ying spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I'm the captain. Lin Biege, I can give you the celery for dinner, but the captain's authority is not up to me."
"Asshole, you don't like celery anyway."
As Lin Biege spoke, he tore off Sun Dang's right arm. Nan Gua cooperated and pulled off Sun Dang's left leg. Sun Dang's VX-89 mecha could not maintain balance and fell down.
The score was 3 to 2.
At this time, Yao Mengtao behind the front line finally moved.
The joints of the mecha made a tearing sound, and the bent legs kicked forward, attacking Lin Biege directly!
Without a single step, the mecha's hand knife slashed fiercely at the rear of the cockpit. Lin Biege was lucky enough to dodge it, while Yao Mengtao used inertia to gain momentum in the air and controlled her legs to kick forward.
Oh - it turns out that Yao Mengtao was lingering behind, not because she despised her opponent, nor because she liked to control the overall situation.
Because she is a strong lone wolf who is good at observing her opponents.
Lin Biege is no match for him alone.
Tao Ying thought for three seconds and quickly pushed the joystick.
Her VX-89 slid down and knelt right in front of Yao Mengtao's mecha.
So when Lin Biege turned around, she saw Tao Ying sandwiched between her and Yao Mengtao.
He was about to be kicked into the cockpit.
Lin Biege shouted in horror: "Shadow, are you crazy?"
