Lian Xing
Ever since Oswald fell ill the last time he transformed into a human, he no longer wanted to become human.
He could endure the superficial injuries and broken bones caused by fighting, but he really didn't like the discomfort and torture inside.
But at this moment, Osvid felt that the idea proposed by Bai Yuanzhou was not impossible.
He had underestimated how fragile his human form would be before, but if he pays more attention in the future it shouldn't be a big problem.
What's more, if he really turns into a human form, it will be easier for him to communicate in human society. After all, the dragon communication stone needs to consume so much dragon power to maintain the connection, which proves that the distance between him and the floating island is extremely large. It will take some time for the great elder to come.
Before that, he wanted to gain some experience in the empire and change everyone's perception of him. He didn't want people to think of him as just a little guy who needed to be taken care of. He could also help Bo Bo on his own.
All resistance to taking human form disappeared at this moment.
Osvid even began to wonder where he could gather enough energy to transform into dragon power, allowing him to enter adolescence sooner. This way, he could maintain his human form for a long time like the High Priest, and then change back into a dragon whenever he wanted.
After figuring this out, Osvid nodded repeatedly: "Good idea, good idea!"
The little dragon cub's emotions are always expressed in this way. You can see when he is happy and excited, when he is angry and disgusted, and when he is sad or scared.
Bai Yuanzhou didn't need to guess anything; he knew the other party was no longer troubled. He chuckled and touched the little guy's head: "As long as your problem is solved."
Just at this time, the people who came to deliver the mecha Lianxing also arrived, and Bai Yuanzhou got up to check the condition of the mecha.
It was originally a box half a person's height, and looked ordinary. However, after Bai Yuanzhou put his thumb on a silver square on the box, the outer shell of the box fell to the sides, revealing the mecha inside which began to change its form. In just five seconds, the mecha over two meters high was revealed in front of everyone.
It was the first time that Osvid saw the mecha Lianxing that Bai Yuanzhou had been thinking about. It looked different from Jonathan's mecha. Its structure was like a human, with flexible joints, arms, legs and even waist that could be turned. The shell was not fancy, all black, with only a few silver lines as decoration, like a meteor falling on the mecha.
Jonash's mecha is shaped more like an aircraft, with a sturdy shell and thorough protection for the cockpit. One has to drill into the mecha from the bottom, like a turtle shell.
The mecha is in place, and the battle between the two is about to begin.
The main reason why Bai Yuanzhou challenged Jonah to a duel was that he wanted to practice his skills, but there was really no suitable person around him to fight with him. It would not be challenging to challenge a new recruit, and the other officers of the same rank were not familiar enough to fight with without breaking their defense. Jonah was not obsessed with winning or losing and would not take it to heart.
Jonash had finished warming up and sat in the mecha, while Bai Yuanzhou just took off his coat and let Osvid snuggle in his clothes to be more comfortable. Then he climbed onto Lianxing and entered the cockpit.
The battle area in the training room is about the size of a basketball court and is equipped with an intelligent system. After entering the venue, you can connect with the mecha. The situation inside the cockpit can be observed on the large screen, and you can choose the battle mode.
As the one who challenged the fight, Bai Yuanzhou gave up the right to choose: "You choose, Jonah."
Jonah thought about it and chose the points mode. After all, if he played like a ring match, he would be forced off the stage by Bai Yuanzhou in an instant.
After the mode was selected, two positioning points, one red and one blue, lit up on the field. The two piloted their mechas to their positions, and a mechanical voice rang out: "The first round of the points competition is about to begin."
"Both competitors, please prepare. Three, two, one—the game begins!"
Almost as soon as the mechanical voice finished speaking, Lian Xing had already moved from the left half of the court to the center of the court under Bai Yuanzhou's operation and launched an attack on Jonathan Nash.
Osvid was in the rest area listening to the discussion among several people, and a kind person explained the rules to him.
The so-called points game is that both sides can designate three areas on the mecha for the other side to attack. As long as any of these three points is attacked, one point will be counted. A game lasts five minutes, and whoever has more points after three games will win.
Jonash chose points very cleverly. Two of them were under his mecha, and one tricky one was at the corner of his weapon barrel. However, he didn't need this pulse cannon at all during the battle. He couldn't attack at all unless the barrel was raised, so Bai Yuanzhou could only rely on the remaining two points to score points.
Jonash's mecha was connected to his mental power and reacted much faster than Bai Yuanzhou's manual operation. As soon as he had the thought of dodging backwards, the mecha retreated.
However, Jonash was still startled by Lian Xing's sudden charge: "You're getting so anxious by hitting me right away!"
After all, they are old partners, and he is confident about Bai Yuanzhou's style on the battlefield. It is a bit abnormal for Bai Yuanzhou to launch an attack right away this time.
Before Jonash could figure out what was going on, he saw the other party raise his laser gun and shoot at him.
Jonash: “Oh my gosh!”
Jonah was already retreating rapidly, and in order to avoid the shot, he stumbled and rolled backwards. After all, the defensive mecha was still bulky, and Jonah stood up as quickly as possible but still found a flaw.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Yuanzhou saw that he had taken the bait, so he flew up into the air for a distance and then fired ten rounds of ammunition steadily into the range that Jonash had circled before.
"The red team hits point number one, for a total of ten points."
When Jonas heard this report, he slapped his head hard. He said, when did Bai Yuanzhou become such an offensive player? It turned out that they were setting a trap for him!
After realizing this, Jonash rubbed his hands together and raised his laser gun to prepare for "revenge" on Bai Yuanzhou.
However, although the points chosen by Bai Yuanzhou were common, he knew Jonash's style of play too well, so he could always dodge before he made a move. Even if he was hit occasionally, he could quickly find the flaw in Jonash's defense, and then take advantage of the angle after the bullet bounced on the ground to hit the "belly" of Jonash's mecha.
Just after two minutes, the battle situation on the field was already over. However, this did not prevent the discussion among the people in the rest area. They were not idle either, and even called some team members or friends to come and watch the game.
"Wow, the Admiral has already figured out the strategy since Commander Joe selected the location. That's amazing!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. Commander Qiao is such a jerk... He's such a shrew. Without unexpected attacks, it's hard to score points."
"No, is this reaction speed really in manual mode? I feel like it's not much different from when Admiral Bai uses his mental power..."
"No, no, no, there's still a difference. Besides, Admiral Bai has super S-level mental power, while Lian Xing's mecha is only S-level, so it can't bring out the full synchronization..."
"What a pity, this super S-level is useless now..."
"Shh, just keep this to yourself!"
Osvid listened to the chatter of several people and his heart sank.
Osvid remembered what Xu Le'an said at that time. Clearly, Bo Bo was a heroic general of the empire on the Star Network, so why did he become a waste who could not go to the battlefield in that person's mouth?
Thinking about it this way, it is very suspicious that Bai Yuanzhou lives alone on that uninhabited island. Moreover, Sister Ai Xi takes a long time to do physical examinations on Bai Bai, which proves that Bai Yuanzhou must have been seriously injured. However, it cannot be seen from the outside, so it can only be mental damage.
So, Bai Bai's mental power is no longer usable? He thought it was just Bai Yuanzhou who didn't want to bully Jonash...
Osvid knew that mental power was very important to the people in this world, let alone a society that relied on mental power to fight.
But why exactly was Bo Bo unable to use his mental power, and why hadn't he revealed this to him? If he had spoken, he wouldn't have stood idly by while his human servants faced difficulties.
As Osvid was thinking, the three games on the field were over.
He came back to his senses and looked at the big 76vs30 on the screen. Bai Yuanzhou won.
Osvid put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind. The protective shield of the site had disappeared. He flew to Bai Yuanzhou's cockpit, where there was a whole piece of glass with a special coating, which was just enough to see Bai Yuanzhou.
The little dragon cub stopped right in front, flapping its wings vigorously, saying, "As expected of Admiral Bai, so impressive!"
Bai Yuanzhou chuckled when he heard this, and stretched out Lian Xing's arm to catch the little dragon cub: "Why are you calling me that like them?"
Osvid was relieved to know he didn't have to fly himself. He stood on Lian Xing and said, "It feels so majestic to yell like that!"
Osvid was about to ask about the severity of Bai Yuanzhou's injuries when he heard Jonash wailing in pain below: "Wuwuwuwuwuwu... My precious Iron Wall..."
Jonash had already crawled out of the cockpit of the mecha and was crying as he looked at the cannon barrel that had just been ruthlessly blown away by Bai Yuanzhou.
In order to score points, this guy actually scrapped his entire cannon barrel. How unsportsmanlike! How much would it cost to repair it?
"The injury is on your body, but it hurts my heart!" Jonah was still crying, and the group of people watching on the side, after perfunctory comfort, began to shout that they wanted to fight with Bo Shang in the future.
After all, they were already used to having to patch up their mechas after fighting with Admiral Bai. Even then, they would still fight in the virtual battlefield most of the time, so the consumption was not much.
On the other side, some people couldn't wait and called the maintenance robot to clear the space for them.
Repairing the mecha must be painful, but the opportunity to fight a genius like Bai Yuanzhou again after so many years is rare.
Jonash couldn't understand the group of warmongers around him. He stood up helplessly and sat with the little dragon cub to watch the battle. He grumbled to himself, "Ha, after you guys finish fighting, forget about the mecha."
Jonah just said this, but he didn't expect that it would actually come true after a game of 1VN.
Even apart from the mechas of that group of people, Lian Xing, who only suffered some minor injuries, had problems.
Jonah quickly covered his mouth, thinking to himself that he didn't curse!
Bai Yuanzhou frowned and started operating in the cabin, but Lian Xing just couldn't work. Electric light flickered at the joints of the mecha, and then even the display screen went black.
He jumped off the mecha, contacted the maintenance technician, and asked Jonash, "Are you sure the military has regularly inspected Lianxing?"
Jonash nodded repeatedly. He knew how much Bai Yuanzhou cared for Lian Xing. "I was always there during every inspection and parts replacement. If I wasn't there, Lao Li and his gang would be there. No one would dare to tamper with anything."
Bai Yuanzhou nodded, and he was not idle either, taking the maintenance robot up and down to keep records.
Although he knew some knowledge about mecha maintenance, this was the first time he encountered a situation where Lian Xing had completely stopped working. He couldn't diagnose the problem himself, and he didn't dare to dismantle the mecha rashly.
A short while later, the mecha repairman arrived at the scene. After a quick inspection, he shook his head and said, "The mecha itself is too old. Although adding so many new accessories improves its performance, it's not suitable for the mecha itself..."
"It can't be repaired. I guess you'll have to customize a new mecha."
Bai Yuanzhou remained silent, but Jonash was even more anxious than him: "Is there really no solution?"
The repairman said he was helpless: "Unless we find the designer of this mecha, there is still hope of saving it."
Disassembling a mecha is also a technical job. This time, all the problems on Lian Xing's body were exposed at the same time. It is impossible to repair it by disassembling one by one, but disassembling all of them will test the maintenance technician's familiarity with the mecha. If he makes a mistake in one step, it may be completely impossible to repair it. He dare not take this risk.
Because each mecha is designed with a strict set of steps in the core charging part. If the Zerg want to dismantle the Empire's mecha for research, it will cause an explosion, making it impossible for them to replicate the Empire's technology.
Bai Yuanzhou breathed a sigh of relief. This mecha was originally a gift that his father had asked his trusted mecha master to build, but both of them died in that voyage, and no design drafts were left behind. Only Lian Xing was spared from the disaster because he was in the factory at that time.
This solution was the same as not being mentioned at all. Bai Yuanzhou said in a deep voice, "I understand."
Seeing Bai Yuanzhou's expression, the mecha repairman didn't say anything more and walked out. He had other orders to check.
"How about we get a few more repairmen? Who knows? Maybe someone can fix it!"
"The guy just now was the one who had been doing maintenance for Lian Xing. You could say he was the one who executed all the modification plans. Half of the First Army's mechas were made by him. If even he can't do it, then others who don't understand the situation will be even less capable!"
After Jonash finished speaking, he raised his hand and patted Bai Yuanzhou: "Brother, you..."
Before he could finish his words, a curly-haired man swaggered in, arms folded, and said, "I can fix it."
The three words were spoken with great determination and revealed great confidence.
Some people present did not recognize who this sloppy-looking man was, but Jonash recognized him, as did Bai Yuanzhou. Of course, the most excited person was the mecha repairman who had just left the room.
The other person was a middle-aged man in his sixties, but he rushed back with a toolbox in his hand, almost unable to stop: "Master!!! You are Master Mo Weini, right?"
"Admiral Bai, do you know who I am? I guarantee that I'm the only one in the entire empire who can repair this mecha." Mo Weini didn't even look at the mecha repairman. He just said, "As long as you give me a chance, I will help you fix it."
As he spoke, Mo Wenni shifted his gaze to Osvid again. Bai Yuanzhou immediately became alert. Even Osvid felt very uncomfortable with the fanatical look in his eyes. He raised his paws and covered himself with Bai Yuanzhou's clothes.
Thinking of that unpleasant conversation, Bai Yuanzhou quickly said, "My attitude will not change. You want to threaten me with the repair of Lianxing to get Long? Impossible."
"No, you misunderstood!" Mo Wei Ni waved his hand quickly, "I just want a chance."
He said earnestly, "I'm not here to separate you and Xiaolong, I want to join you!"
