Chapter 17 I'm Swelling
The black and gold mecha appeared in front of me in just an instant. Although I couldn't see anything through the mecha cabin, the SSS-level mental pressure did arrive first.
"This dog just relies on his high mental power, damn it--" Ars's expression changed obviously, but then another mental power protected him.
That's right, I was going to run away anyway, and if I didn't use this SSS-level mental power now, I wouldn't be able to escape - luckily my mental power was restored before, otherwise I would be a dead end now.
Maybe it was because of the side effects of the potion such as coughing up blood and drowsiness before school started, Attrier never doubted my mental strength.
There's a subtle feeling of being arranged by the system.
Anyway, when I saw the black and gold mecha on the opposite side stopped, I knew that Attriel was shocked because he realized that my mental strength was comparable to his.
——He wouldn't suspect Ingres.
Angel has been instructed by him in mecha training, but I haven't. In theory, I can just beat my brother up and there will be no suspicion.
I took advantage of this time to run away urgently. Perhaps considering my need to run away, this mecha is quite excellent in speed. In just a moment, I had crossed the atmosphere of the planet, and the blue universe appeared in front of me. Then some laser cannons, quantum cannons and other attacks were thrown at me for free.
Haha, my family, who understands? The first time I drove a mecha was like this hell mode, haha, I’m going to die, the system is fully responsible.
[Ding ding ding—release the mandatory plot mission, stage mission four,

Mission requirements: Escape the blockade. 】
Thank you, there is no need to release the task so promptly.
Moreover, the reward for completing this series of tasks is just so-so. I relied entirely on my instinct as a corporate animal to complete them. Anyone who sees this would say that I am a model worker and the boss's favorite slave.
Atriel was chasing me relentlessly, his white mecha dazzling in the universe. I dodged him almost the moment he attacked, thanks to the thousands of battles I had fought on StarNet in the past two years.
At least I have all my fighting instincts now.
The slight unfamiliarity in actual combat can be completely compensated by mental strength, and for a while I was able to fight back and forth with Atlir.
Ars remained silent, knowing that I couldn't be distracted right now.
Looking at Atriel's heavy sword, I roughly understood how Ars lost his left hand, left eye, and left face, which was almost the same as the damage to his mecha.
It's so miserable.
Being hit by this thing really takes away half your life.
My mecha is not equipped with any cold weapons. Maybe my father has long realized that it is better to give me fists than cold weapons. We real men all fight with our fists. If we can't win, we use laser cannons - sir, times have changed!
Taking advantage of a gap left by Atriel, I reached out and held his wrist. Then a hidden laser cannon appeared from the belly of the mecha and fired instantly. He couldn't completely dodge the attack at such a close distance, but he grabbed me with his backhand, and I took half of the impact.
Be a man, Attrier.
However, because he attacked head-on, his mecha was a little cracked. I took advantage of this opportunity to escape urgently, and then made a time and space jump to reach the star base station.
I used the shock wave to create some distance between him and me, and as I jumped through time and space, he followed closely behind.
It's really haunting——
I just saved one person, I didn't blow up the empire!
The time-space jump had a certain deviation due to Atriel's interference, but fortunately I could arrive within half an hour - theoretically, as long as I blew up the base station to escape the blockade, and then left him a certain distance away and made three jumps, Ars and I could escape.
The problem is to get rid of him by a certain distance - the close-range laser cannon just now didn't do much damage to him because he was too close.
Oh, yes, I remember he talked about a theory in class.
"When spiritual powers of the same level collide, there's a certain probability of synchronizing. After synchronizing, there's a certain amount of spiritual power lag. This period of time is crucial for victory on the battlefield."
I looked at Ars next to me and said, "Ars, after I blow up the base station, we need to get away from Atriel for a distance so we can escape. I need you to take over the mecha for a while. Is that okay?"
Yars made an OK gesture with one hand, and I quickly increased the speed of the mecha to its maximum, ignoring any attacks from behind and flying towards the location of the nearest star field base station.
I can already see the light curtain blocking the star field. If I hit it, I'm doomed.
The quantum bomb has been successfully loaded, and Attrier doesn't know we have it yet.
In front of the star field base station, Atelier followed closely behind and stood in front of me.
After leaving the range of the ecological planet, public communications and the Internet were restored, and I felt my light brain vibrating.
"You are the White Crow—" His voice came through the public communication channel, "Where are you hiding? Or who are you?"
I decided not to speak, as speaking now would expose my identity.
I fought with him again. The feeling of hitting the mecha with my fist was like dropping stainless steel bowls and basins on the ground.
Crackling, crackling, luckily the universe can't hear the sound.
Then when the cannon in my right hand was raised, Attrier suddenly realized something and his mental power rushed towards me. I fought back without giving in.
Two quantum bombs were launched from different lines, both targeting the star field base station.
After the mental power collision between him and me, there was indeed a mental vacuum. I couldn't control the mecha, and Attrier was frozen in place.
As the star field base station exploded, a hole suddenly appeared in the light curtain, but the hole began to repair itself almost instantly.
"Yars, go!"
Ars was well prepared and connected his mental power directly. In an instant, we flew out of the hole. I looked at the black-gold mecha that was slowly restarting behind me, and Ars directly performed a space jump.
We appeared on an uninhabited planet several light years away.
"Escaped--" Ars took a breath, and my mental vacuum also ended, but because of the impact, I now feel blood all over my face.
Then I took out my light computer and skipped over all the information. Cheap Dad only sent a coordinate and a few anonymous accounts. I quickly copied the information on the light computer, and then transferred the money in my account to the account given by Cheap Dad through internal channels.
Simply empty the optical computer, destroy the chips inside, and throw it on this planet.
I didn't keep anything the military academy gave me.
Just a few minutes had passed since we finished dealing with everything, and Ars and I had already started our second space jump.
After three jumps and making sure there were no pursuers, I jumped directly back to the coordinates given by my cheap dad.
The moment I arrived, I saw Cheap Dad, Jamila and Lin were all there.
This isn't Nebula's headquarters, but a planet I've never been to, probably a safe house or something like that.
The mecha slowly stopped on the planet and the cockpit opened. Both Ars and I felt tired. It had only been two hours since we started our escape.
After I stumbled out of the mecha and fell into the arms of my cheap dad, I felt him touching my head in a daze.
"Thank you for your hard work, my little crows."
Then I fell asleep. Before I fell asleep, I saw Lin slapping his cheap dad on the head without any hesitation.
"You fucking let a thirteen-year-old do something like that, you bastard."
Well, it’s good to be scolded, I love to listen to it.
————————————————————
When I woke up again, I found myself lying on a hospital bed. I tilted my head slightly and saw Ars sleeping soundly in the medical cabin next to me. Most of his injuries had been repaired, even his broken arm and left eye had recovered.
As expected of the future of medicine, he looks like nothing happened.
The world is changing rapidly. Yesterday I was an ordinary student, and today I am a wanted criminal.
I don’t know if my biological father and Angel know about it.
My optical computer is gone, I can't see any messages, and I'm isolated from the world. I don't even know how long I've been back.
After all, I feel pain all over my body now.
"Four ribs are broken, the forearm bone is fractured, the capillaries in the face are ruptured, and some internal organs are damaged. It's normal for you to feel pain all over your body." Lin saw me wake up and heard my voice.
"Because you're still in the growth phase, you're not suitable for medical use, so you'll have to recover on your own." Lin adjusted his glasses. "Although I think you're a victim, I'm quite surprised you were able to bring Ars back within six months."
I remembered the slap Lin gave my cheap dad before I passed out. Combined with what he said now, what else can't I understand?
All this is just the calculation of the cheap dad.
Fortunately, I got to experience campus life, which was neither short nor long - it was all driven by the plot, and the system should take half the responsibility for this.
"How long have I slept?"
"Three days."
Okay, I want to retract what I said before. I was not an ordinary student yesterday, I was an ordinary student three days ago.
"I threw away my laptop and I want to go online."
I looked at Lin. My fractured right hand was now in a splint and my left hand was receiving an IV drip. It was obvious that I had difficulty moving.
"The Empire has not disclosed your true identity, but your bounty has increased by one million. Congratulations, you are second only to me and your father." Lin knew exactly what I wanted to see.
My vision went dark after I heard this. I probably didn't do anything unforgivable.
"You single-handedly challenged an SSS-level Imperial Guardian, blew up a starfield base station, and even rescued Ars from him. The SSS-level mental power you displayed alone is enough for the Empire to consider you a significant threat."
"Okay, now tell me the truth, how did your mental power become SSS level? Even acupuncture can't have this effect."
I was silent, I was anxious, and I forgot.
This person is the first person to know my true spiritual power!!!
"I have a twin, and he awakened his psychic powers a few months ago," I said dryly, "He's SSS-level, and when he awakened, it affected me—"
"So you became SSS-level?" He raised an eyebrow.
"I regained my SSS rank."
I confused the cause and effect of things, but anyway I got through it.
Then on the seventh day, which was the day my final exams were supposed to end, I saw the official announcement—
A freshman at the Imperial Military Academy is confirmed missing during an exam.
The student was taken hostage by the space pirate White Crow, who belongs to the Nebula. The Empire will rescue the student as soon as possible.
Um? ? ?
Wait a minute, I didn’t get caught???
This shouldn’t be the case—
No, that notice has the royal seal on it.
I was pretty sure Attrier recognized me. After all, I was using the knowledge he taught me against him. It was too obvious.
It is likely that it was not announced for some reason.
...Considering that this is a group-loving article, it can't be because you are afraid of making Angel sad.
Don’t say it, don’t say it——
If this is the reason, it is really possible!
