Mecha Silver Dragon
Yu Sheng guessed half right about the reason why Yun Xiao added him as a friend.
Yunxiao had a sharp eye; he immediately saw the difference in Yusheng's fighting style, which piqued his interest. But if that were all, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to add Yusheng as his friend.
Yunxiao felt that this fighting style was very familiar to him, and he had seen it on Yu Sheng. Combined with his previous observations of Yu Sheng's daily routine and the virtual network activity of the young man in front of him, the possibility that he was Yu Sheng was very high.
Even after adding Yunxiao as his friend, Yusheng still felt a sense of unreality. Yunxiao then disappeared offline. Yusheng, thinking it was time for his night training, logged off as well.
After climbing out of the virtual warehouse, Yu Sheng patted his rumbling stomach and dug out some snacks from the small basket to nibble on. After comforting his protesting stomach, Yu Sheng changed into loose clothes and sneaked off to the woods for a training run as usual.
As Yu Sheng practiced his moves against the tree against the pitch-black sky, he was completely unaware that Frey was standing upstairs, watching him silently. Yu Sheng also memorized the escaping technique used by the short-haired girl in the virtual network, and felt that he had learned a trick. He practiced it against the tree trunk, hoping to incorporate it into his own fighting.
Frey, who took in all of Yu Sheng's moves, narrowed his eyes and left the window before Yu Sheng noticed.
The night passed peacefully.
During the day, Yu Sheng was catching up on his sleep. In the morning, he specifically told Anna that he would not eat and wanted to catch up on his sleep. The thoughtful Anna guessed that he had been playing games all night, so she talked to Yu Sheng about having a healthy schedule and going to bed early, and then she agreed to Yu Sheng's words.
As a result, at noon, when Yu Sheng was sleeping soundly, there was a knock on the door.
Yu Sheng opened his eyes alertly, thinking that Anna was worried about his health and insisted on bringing him lunch, so he relaxed and collapsed on the bed, calling out lazily, "Anna, I really don't want to eat lunch, I want to sleep!"
The knocking stopped for a moment, and Yu Sheng was about to fall asleep again. The next second, a low voice of a man who did not belong to Anna sounded, "Lingling, be good, open the door."
Frey?!
"..." Yu Sheng suddenly lost all sleepiness and jumped off the bed.
As soon as the door opened, he met Frey's calm eyes. Yu Sheng's gaze shifted downwards, landing on the dinner plate in Frey's hand. The plate was covered with a lid, so he couldn't smell any fragrance at all.
Unable to sleep, Yu Sheng had no intention of letting Frey in. "What are you doing here?"
Frey didn't respond to Yu Sheng's words. He held the dinner plate in his left hand, stepped forward with his right foot and inserted it into the gap of the door. At the same time, he put his right hand around Yu Sheng's waist and lifted him up, easily lifting Yu Sheng's feet off the ground.
Yu Sheng was trapped in Frey's arms and was about to fight back, but fortunately he suppressed his instinct and pretended to struggle.
Frey closed the door with his left foot, threw Yu Sheng onto the mattress, placed the dinner plate on the table, and said to the bewildered Yu Sheng, "You are not allowed to not eat."
Yu Sheng, fully aware of his master's stubborn nature, compromised and sat down at the table. He lifted the lid of his meal, and the aroma instantly filled his nostrils, flooding all of his senses. His stomach, though not particularly hungry, suddenly growled, a gurgling sound that was particularly noticeable in the quiet of the pet room.
Yu Sheng glanced at Frey awkwardly. A smile flashed in Frey's eyes, and he said softly, "Eat."
The steak in front of him, drenched in sauce, was indeed very tempting. Yu Sheng wondered why you were so generous this time, having never allowed me to eat it before. Then he heard Frey say, "Don't worry, it's specially made for blue beasts."
Upon hearing this, Yu Sheng immediately abandoned his reserve, ignored the knife, picked up the fork and directly pierced the whole big steak, took a bite, and a big crescent-shaped gap suddenly appeared in the steak.
"Slow down," Frey said again.
Yu Sheng didn't have time to listen to him this time. The hot steaks filled his taste buds. He couldn't tell what kind of meat it was, but it didn't matter. For the first time, he felt very happy to be able to eat something that wasn't a snack or compressed food.
He is undoubtedly a foodie.
Frey watched Yu Sheng eat up all the steak. Even the sauce on the plate was wiped clean by Yu Sheng who used the last piece of steak to stuff it into his mouth.
"I'll make it for you next time." After saying that, Frey picked up the plate on the table and left.
I went online that evening and, as usual, read Haidun's message. He had midterm exams at school, so he wouldn't be online for a while. In the message, Haidun had assured Yu Sheng that he'd definitely improve his grades this time, and maybe even make it into the top 100 in the mecha combat department!
After reading Haidun's message, Yu Sheng went to the Free Alliance's small base again and told Randy and the others about his current situation. He also specifically mentioned that Yunxiao had added him as a friend.
Randy frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "No matter what his intentions are, seize this opportunity. Yu Sheng, we still hope you can achieve high rankings in the two competitions. Besides the organization needing more funds, more importantly, we need a warrior with exceptional combat effectiveness. You are the only one in the organization who possesses this talent. But becoming a warrior doesn't happen overnight. You must hone your skills."
Yu Sheng nodded. "I'll do my best." Then he thought of something and glanced at Randy questioningly. He hesitated and said, "Actually, Wei Lan is also very talented. I once fought him in a martial arts match, and he was a very evenly matched opponent."
Randy's eyes darkened and he sighed, "Boss Azure... he's no good, and he won't be able to do it in the future."
Yu Sheng was stunned, not understanding what Randy meant. However, he didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he turned to discuss the Freedom Alliance's plans with everyone. Phil smiled and said, "The most recent plan is to give you special training! I'll take you to see a surprise later!"
Yu Sheng was curious and asked what the surprise was, but Phil kept covering his mouth with his hands and laughing, refusing to tell Yu Sheng. The other members also looked mysterious. Yu Sheng had no choice but to look at Randy for help, "Stop keeping me in suspense!"
Randy laughed and stood up. "Come on, I'll take you to see it now."
A group of people walked together into the deep room in a lively manner. After pushing open a door, the view in front of them suddenly opened up.
In the center of the huge hall, a silver humanoid mecha was parked there quietly, but even with this, Yu Sheng could hear his heart beating like a drum.
Yu Sheng stood in front of the mecha, like a person looking up at the giant's feet, marveling at the giant's smooth muscle texture and broad chest and back.
"Go up and try it?" Randy encouraged Yu Sheng with a smile.
Yu Sheng's grip tightened unconsciously. He looked back at his companions, each of whose eyes was filled with gentleness and encouragement. Yu Sheng felt as if every cell in his body was brimming with energy.
Yu Sheng nodded to his companions, and then under their gaze, he slowly but powerfully crawled into the giant's body.
"Welcome, my master." A magnetic male voice echoed in the mecha cabin. On the huge light screen, a handsome man stood in the center, gazing at Yu Sheng affectionately. "I am humanoid mecha No. QW-23703. Would you like to rename me?"
"Let's call him Silver Dragon." Yu Sheng said.
"Silver Dragon will fight alongside the master." The man on the screen transformed into fragments of blue light, and the scene outside appeared clearly before Yu Sheng's eyes. Yu Sheng sat in the main driver's seat in front of the light screen, looking at the control panel in front of him, feeling a little unsure of where to start.
Silver Dragon's voice sounded again, "Please fasten your seat belt."
Yu Sheng was completely different, feeling as if he were taking the third test. After fastening his seatbelt, he donned the mind-connecting cap. Suddenly, Yu Sheng's mind went blank, and it took him several seconds to regain consciousness.
Silver Dragon reminded him, "When you first fly a mecha, your mental energy may overflow and dissipate. Please don't be nervous, relax yourself, and focus your mind. Try to infuse your mental energy into the Silver Dragon's body. Imagine that I am the Silver Dragon and the Silver Dragon is me, and strive to achieve a higher degree of compatibility with the Silver Dragon."
Yu Sheng closed his eyes. Initially, he didn't understand what this ethereal power was, but gradually, he felt his body grow until it became a giant. He opened his eyes and tentatively moved his left hand. He saw his friends on the screen clapping in delight. Phil even made a "you're awesome" gesture at him.
"Congratulations, my master! Your mental power control coverage of Silver Dragon has reached 100%." Silver Dragon simulated a happy sound effect. "You have broken the record of 99% for mental power control coverage of Interstellar Network mechas. Would you like to submit this new Interstellar record to the authorities?"
Yu Sheng was stunned, and immediately understood what Xi Ze meant when he said to him, "It is definitely more advantageous than you can imagine."
"Don't send it, and immediately clear the record of my mental power operation coverage rate and modify it to 88%."
"As you command, my Lord."
The members of the Freedom Alliance looked at the silver mecha that they had spent so much effort, money, and hope on.
It first twitched its fingers, causing everyone to cheer, as this was proof that Yu Sheng's mental strength had reached the level required to control a mecha. Then, the silver mecha took a small, tentative step forward and, like an excited child, began to sprint around the hall, shocking everyone and causing them to step back in amazement at Yu Sheng's ability to run and jump so freely so quickly.
The silver mech clumsily performed various basic movements such as bending, rolling, and jumping, and then extended the cannon on its chest, scaring everyone back away and shouting at him in panic, "Don't fire randomly! If you want to fire, you have to go to the mech training ground and get a room!"
Yu Sheng laughed heartily in the mecha cabin, retracted the cannon, unbuckled his seatbelt, lowered the connection cap, and jumped down the ladder from the mecha cabin. The moment he landed, the silver mecha continued to shrink, eventually melting into a miniature mecha with a rope that was just right for hanging around Yu Sheng's neck.
"Thank you!" Yu Sheng looked at his friends and said sincerely.
Phil came up and punched Yu Sheng in the chest, saying cheerfully, "Why are you being so pretentious? This is the mission everyone has given you!"
Yu Sheng laughed with everyone, and the collective strength and warmth filled his body. Yu Sheng felt that this was the happiest day since he came to the interstellar space.
In the end, everyone decided to let Randy and Caesar be Yu Sheng's mecha training instructors. Although Caesar can no longer drive a mecha to fight, he has rich practical experience. More importantly, Caesar is also an excellent mecha maker. Silver Dragon was born from his hands. I believe no one knows Silver Dragon better than him.
Randy, on the other hand, gave Yu Sheng more advice on details, tactics, and analyzing opponents. As a writer specializing in battlefield psychology, he was willing to share his knowledge with him.
In the room of the mecha training ground, Yu Sheng fired a shot at the light cannon test screen in front of him. The number 8 appeared on the screen, which meant that the power of the artillery fire could reach level eight, which was a very good power on the rating scale of one to ten.
Yu Sheng knew that his Silver Dragon would not be cheap. Even if it was a virtual mecha made by Xi Ze himself, the materials and energy would probably cost a lot of money. Thinking of this, Yu Sheng clenched his fists, determined not to let his partners down.
Caesar hadn't come online yet, and Yu Sheng, a beginner, didn't know much about tactical details, so Randy asked Yu Sheng to practice the most basic moves on his own first, so that he could get more and more in tune with the Silver Dragon and control it more easily.
Yu Sheng was driving the Silver Dragon alone, repeating the monotonous movements over and over again in the room. Although it was boring and tiring, for Yu Sheng, who was a student at a military academy, endurance was the most basic quality.
Unconsciously, time passed, and Yinlong's movements evolved from stumbling and faltering, with the occasional fall, to running, jumping, and tumbling smoothly. However, when practicing front and back flips, Yu Sheng was still a little unskilled, and Yinlong's toes wobbled, and he landed on the ground with a thud.
"Oh." Yu Sheng sighed. Just as he was about to control the silver dragon to make it stand up again, his personal panel began to beep. Yu Sheng didn't pay attention to who it was and clicked the connection. The deep and magnetic male voice came directly into his ears.
"Where?"
Yu Sheng was stunned, not realizing who this person was. He quickly checked his profile. The name "Yunxiao" on it made him nervous, like a little fan meeting a great master. "I, I'm in the mecha training ground, and I've opened a training room."
The other party paused noticeably, then continued, "Give me the room number."
Yu Sheng's mouth acted before his brain and he spoke out the room number. After Yunxiao hung up the phone, he realized that Yunxiao was coming to see him.
Could it be that Yunxiao simply wanted to be friends with me? Even a kindergartener wouldn't believe that, would they?
Yu Sheng was in a daze, and even Yin Long stood up slowly, like a sloth.
Not long after, the figure Yu Sheng had only seen a few times appeared in the room. Yun Xiao's gaze descended from the top of the mecha to the foot, finally settling on the center-upper mecha cabin. From Yu Sheng's perspective, Yun Xiao on the screen looked as if he were staring directly at him in the mecha cabin.
Yunxiao's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, "Open the hatch and let me in."
Yu Sheng subconsciously obeyed Yun Xiao's instructions and opened the hatch. Yun Xiao climbed up and sat down in the co-pilot seat next to Yu Sheng very naturally.
"Let me see you do the basic moves first." Yunxiao went straight to the point. His serious demeanor made Yu Sheng sit up straight. He inexplicably felt like his instructor was sitting next to him when he was learning to drive. His palms were sweating, and he only thought about not embarrassing himself in front of the great driver.
As a result, perhaps due to excessive nervousness, not only did he fail to perform the moves he had just practiced so well, but he also made a big fool of himself. Silver Dragon had only run a few steps when he twisted his leg and fell face first to the ground.
