Chapter 134
…
The mecha spun rapidly and crashed. Fortunately, the safety factor of the co-pilot seat of this mecha was high enough to fix Mu Jiao firmly on the seat, so that she would not be directly thrown out by external forces.
Mu Jiao sighed silently in her heart at this moment. With her useless physique, she was really unlucky to be forced to participate in a battle between high-level mechas.
It's common knowledge among interstellar humans that those with talents below C-medium are not suitable for traveling in mechas. While riding in one for a short period of time is fine, prolonged use can lead to dizziness, as the body can no longer withstand the immense kinetic energy generated by the mecha's operation. This was exactly what happened to her now, with a dizzy, excruciating feeling, far worse than the motion sickness she'd experienced in her previous life.
What Mu Jiao didn't know was that interstellar common sense referred to the situation when a mecha was in stable operation and a person with substandard innate power was riding in it. But at this moment, the mechas were really fighting fiercely, and the kinetic energy generated was dozens of times more than when it was in stable operation.
But Mu Jiao was still conscious, only suffering from severe dizziness. This was a miracle. Normally, such intense battles between advanced bio-mechs would generate kinetic energy dozens of times greater than that of ordinary combat mechs. Even someone with B-level talent would feel uncomfortable sitting in the passenger seat under these circumstances. Yet, with Mu Jiao's physique, she hadn't fainted, and her internal organs showed no visible damage...
Although Jing Li was fighting, he seemed to be at ease. Afraid that something might happen to Mu Jiao, the "God of Wealth", he even spared a little attention to keep an eye on her.
He hadn't expected that despite her pale face, she was still conscious after more than ten minutes of fighting. This was a miracle. After all, he had specifically researched Mu Jiao's information and knew full well how useless her natural abilities were.
It was truly fascinating, a little idiot with a useless physique could actually be in this level of combat—in the midst of it all—and remain lucid, with no visible internal damage so far. This little idiot had truly given him another "surprise"!
A person with a weak constitution might very well possess a cure for a terminal illness that has eluded countless galaxies for millennia. A scumbag who clearly has no chance of awakening his innate abilities, yet is managing to be just fine in this situation... How many secrets does this little idiot hold?
Simple and pure yet full of mystery, it can easily arouse people's desire to continue exploring...
But there was no rush. Once he brought her back, he would have plenty of time to dig out all her "secrets." But right now, he had to resolve the current trouble.
This little boss's talent was in the support category, so his combat power wasn't outstanding in a natural combat situation. However, unexpectedly, his mecha control ability and coordination with the mecha were very good. Such a person was worthy of being his opponent. Jing Li's eyes flashed with regret. After all, the timing was wrong. He couldn't fight him for three hundred rounds...
Seeing that Mu Jiao was fine, Jing Li no longer had any concerns and put all his energy into the battle. The use of mechas in this area had attracted the attention of Yin Jiuyuan's army, and they would definitely send troops over. So in order to avoid more trouble, he had to get out as soon as possible.
What Jing Li hadn't expected was that Xi Kai E Pei would rush out so hastily, even at the cost of injuring herself to stop him from leaving. This made Jing Li even more ruthless.
"Cough, cough cough——"
Xikai was unable to react in time, and an ion cannon shot directly into his mech's flank. The immense force of the impact injured him, and he couldn't help but cough up blood. However, he didn't have time to worry about his injuries at that moment, as the enemy was about to leave again, and he had to continue interfering and successfully blocking them. Otherwise, once the enemy left, with the current damage to his mech, he wouldn't be able to catch up with his speed.
They were both gifted users of the same level, piloting similarly advanced biological mechas, but Jingli's coordination with the mecha and his control speed were far superior to Xikai Epezhen's. Xikai, raised in an aristocratic family, fought with discipline. Although he remained at Huo Qi's side due to his status as a light healer, his battlefield presence was limited. Jingli, on the other hand, thrived in the darkness, his attacks cunning and ruthless, unconventional. His seemingly chaotic and unsystematic attacks were, in reality, filled with traps and deadly intentions.
The battle between Jingli and Xikai E Peizhen is like a battle between a warrior and a ranger. One follows the rules, the other one does not. The ranger's skills are better than the warrior's, but the warrior will not give up and will fight him even at the cost of hurting himself.
"Warning! Warning! Five percent of the mecha is damaged..."
"Warning! Warning! Ten percent of the mecha is damaged..."
"Warning! Warning! The mecha has been damaged by 15%. It is recommended to activate full defense mode!"
…
"Warning! Warning! The mecha has been damaged by 30%. Full defense mode is about to be activated. The countdown begins..."
The silver-white mecha was covered in scars after the recent battle, and a huge hole was pierced through its flank by the last ion cannon, right next to the mecha's cockpit.
In the cockpit, Xikai Epei was stunned by the power of the ion cannon that was just within a short distance from him. He suffered serious internal injuries and was now in a coma.
As for Jing Li, although he successfully defeated this trouble, he was in a very bad mood.
The time had greatly exceeded his expectations, so this battle zone had already attracted a lot of attention. Not only that, the Second Prince of that empire and the leader of the Orcs, Yin Jiuyuan, had also moved in unison, heading towards this area one after another.
Mecha starships began to hover in the sky, and he could now see figures in the snow not far away. It seemed there were quite a few people coming. He had no way of getting them away from Frost Evil Star first.
Jing Li was secretly annoyed.
But it doesn't matter. He can hide the person in a secluded place first.
"All retreat!"
Jing Li naturally would not let his men confront so many powerful people head-on, so he ordered them to retreat before they arrived to preserve their strength.
However, Jing Li wanted to leave quietly, but in the end he was inevitably forced to stop again.
The reason was simple: Huo Qi Rex and Yin Jiuyuan had already arrived...
