Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 1348: Countdown to the Showdown


"Hey Xiu Yi, let's stop complaining about the desk workers and get to the lecture. I don't want to be lectured by that old Greedy Wolf."

"Watch your tone, kid." A slender fingertip nearly touched Kevin's forehead, "You should call him General Greedy Wolf."

"Whatever with that, you're kind of overstepping."

"Oh, really?" Angelina's charming face bore a seductive smile, "Judging by ability, your tone seems far more aggressive than your actual strength."

"I'm a technician, not a full-time combat personnel, but I might not lose to you in a fight." Kevin's mischievous grin didn't change as he took out a mechanical container, "There's a combat robot inside here, want to test its power?"

"Enough, Kevin, don't get too cocky." Xiu Yi called out to the eager Kevin, his thoughts drifting back to the experience he shared with Brother Feng two days prior. An experience that felt more like repeated tests at the edge of life and death than actual training.

Within these two days, they had grown, possibly due to the prolonged low-level battles that slowly led them astray, gradually abandoning what they once stood for. But now, under Brother Feng's guidance, they were renewed, even Kevin unintentionally showed a side filled with fighting spirit.

Xiu Yi said to Angelina's group, "Please forgive this kid's rudeness." He nodded, "Kevin, let's go."

Well, the others haven't said anything yet.

Kevin raised his hand in surrender, "Yes, yes, I get it."

"Kid, don't rush off, let's chat a bit more." Just then Zhang Xiaobo raced up, panting, "Xiu Yi, that kick of yours just surprised me, no need to get so worked up over a fool."

"Haha, Fat Brother, your slap surprised everyone, didn't it?"

Ah, this... Fatty scratched his head awkwardly, situations like this can't be explained by admitting he actually planned to be knocked out.

"Fat Brother, you guys know each other." It was Dovir speaking.

"Know each other? Last time I lost my pants while playing cards."

Damn, Fat Brother, you can say such things, seems like a bold one; Xiu Yi and the others blushed, feeling it was better not to linger here. So they left without looking back, ignoring all attempts to hold them back.

Left standing awkwardly, Fat Brother was clueless, he was just stating a fact, even though he didn't consider the feelings of Xiu Yi's team, but nonetheless saw the Federal Government team, with Angelina laughing so hard she couldn't contain herself... these guys really have their embarrassing moments.

"What nonsense are you all talking about, hurry up and come inside for the meeting."

Greedy Wolf's voice instantly tensed everyone's nerves, and they replied in unison, "Yes!"

A few minutes later, in the noisy tactical room, all the combat personnel were gathered. Unexpectedly, each person had a virtual reality combat helmet placed in front of them.

"Silence."

Greedy Wolf's voice wasn't loud, but it had a penetrating quality that quieted the room instantly, "Ladies and gentlemen, you are all elite warriors with exceptional combat skills. We have just a day and a half left. I gathered everyone here to conduct a simulation test for this brief afternoon."

A young woman interjected, "General, what is the point of doing this?"

"It's to assess the real combat level of each team, and consider whether any teams need adjusting. As is well known, the combat strength of each team is not uniform, and there will be discrepancies in cooperation and experience. To maximize winning and survival rates, simulation exercises are necessary."

In the following minutes, Greedy Wolf explained various related matters to the group, such as team redistribution and balancing combat skills. The goal could be achieved through the virtual combat machine, thus also reducing physical fatigue.

An afternoon is enough for each team to complete several rounds of training.

As for tomorrow, the last day, the Government will provide unified rest for everyone, a necessary guarantee before the battle.

With that, the meeting concluded, and everyone could engage in combat within the local network. Relevant personnel would simultaneously record the process and characteristics of each team.

In fact, the Government did this to alleviate hostility among the people. Compared to real-life PK, playing several rounds in the local network is somewhat a release of emotions.

The team confrontations continued until dusk. When everyone removed their helmets, they more or less had new perceptions of each team and its traits, especially Bruce. Despite seeming to be alone, he originally had no teammates—but the feeling he conveyed was always unfathomable. He seemed never to show everything he had.

Furthermore, every team had shining moments, and these individuals clearly held their own trump cards. The results proved that the Government's temporary decision wasn't without effect, as four teams suggested needing personnel changes.

As they exited the room, night had completely fallen. Fatty Zhang Xiaobo gazed at the starry sky, lost in thought for a long time... Another day would be a crucial moment in his life, could this team lacking teammates make it to the end? He even considered inviting Bruce to join, but the person seemed evidently more dangerous. Thinking over it stirred Zhang Xiaobo's restless mind...

If only Feng Yi were here, but there's no contact at all, complete silence. Alas, they could only take it one step at a time.

With a mix of emotions, he dragged his weary body and slowly entered the deep hibernation cabin. Every warrior would undergo a 28-hour deep sleep as advocated by the Government.

——

At this point in time, the edge planet was peaceful and tranquil... The star-studded night sky was like a cradle of the homeland for warriors.

Meanwhile, outside the edge planet, ordinary people were collectively waiting for the countdown to the explosive confrontation with the alien race. Every city had fallen into unprecedented frenzy... Students were resting, workers were on holiday.

In fact, the outcome of this battle was no longer important. Humans, the Titan spirits, at this moment, instead of saying they were engaging in a confrontation, it was more a commemoration of the fallen soldiers on both sides, through the most unique way.

Amid the stars, using high-gloss equipment, it wasn't hard to see that various countries had countless private space shuttles halted outside the atmosphere. The wealthy people wouldn't wait for a broadcast, they would only witness the most real side in their own way, seeing what they wanted to see.

Unsurprisingly, the Federal side had the most space shuttles, due to one individual—Revenge Shadow Rider.

Although Revenge Shadow Rider doesn't belong to any force, although there's no news of him yet, people are certain, he will definitely come, most likely standing on the Federation's side.

As for the reason? There's no need for a reason, because of who he is—Revenge Shadow Rider. Even the Galactic Warfare company worked with their official partner, Blood and Passion team, to procure two giant space shuttles, and inside were none other than the most loyal fans.
