Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 255: Insider News_1


Wind Thunder had been replenishing its ranks with fresh blood over the course of the year: arrogant literary youths with immense powers. The veterans didn't have much to show when it came to mechas. Mu Tou was an exception. His mecha operation skills were not top-notch, but he made up for it in marksmanship. It was for this reason that even the haughty newcomers dared not to show off in front of Mu Tou.

Next was Big Macs. Born into a military family, her background was different from the rest. She had potential, but lacked reliability. After being disciplined by a newcomer, she eaarnestly improved herself over several months and momentarily turned the situation around, becoming one of the few mecha fighters in Wind Thunder.

And as for the third contender apart from them, it's Elvis. Through persistent effort, he had climbed up here step by step, his sacrifices in the process were known to all.

However, everyone's face darkened when Feng Yi mentioned the newcomers. Since the outbreak of the all-out war, a large number of geniuses had joined Wind Thunder. Under the conscription conditions of being at least 18 years old, countless talents had already shown the brilliance of the young generation.

The current freshmen were overpowering the veterans.

Sheng Qiangwei, who was not acquainted with the logistics team, just sat quietly beside Feng Yi, attentively listening to the heated discussions among the crowd. People were saying that the counterattack at Lipton had just ended. During the alliance alumni exchange meeting, Elvis had fought against Mirami, known as Black Princess.

Guess what, she deployed a federation's main battle model under the name of friendly exchange, and hit Elvis so hard that it was pitiful to see. Grand, who was on the side, couldn't bear to watch.

Feng Yi, immersed in his own world, simply stated, "Elvis has never been to the battlefield and only came into contact with the mobile warriors lately, it's natural that he wouldn't stand a chance."

Someone hurriedly explained that the topic of their discussion was not this, but the federal itself. It seemed that Sky Shadow had heard the news and had come a long way from the Solar System, claiming that he hoped to exchange a few moves with the Black Princess. Of course, this was to promote the friendly exchanges between the allied forces. It wasn't confirmed whether the news was accurate or not, but if it was, they should reach Alpha in about two or three days. Therefore, now everyone was looking forward to a collision between star generals.

Feng Yi laughed bitterly and shook his head. He hardly knew any of them. He asked who the Black Princess and Sky Shadow were.

Everyone looked at Feng Yi as if he was some kind of lunatic. Feng Yi was of course not a fool, he just didn't know much about mobile warriors, "Boss, don't tell me you've never heard the name of Mirami among the twelve constellations? Her real strength is close to that of a probationary ace, it might even be more horrifying. I think except the Revenge Shadow Rider, no one can certainly defeat her."

In fact, about Revenge Shadow Rider, everyone still had a kind of blind confidence. Although the identity of Shadow Rider was mysterious, netizens had roughly worked out Shadow Rider's real age through various synthesized voice tapes.

Feng Yi was rather indifferent, "Even if she is from the Twelve Constellations, so what? Is that significant? All miracles start from being down-to-earth. The biggest enemy is always yourself. I believe that as long as you have enthusiasm and perseverance, the gap between you and Mirami won't be that large."

Darn, it was that official tone of inspiring everyone again. His brothers were no longer students. However, apart from admiring Feng Yi in the combat field, they had nothing else to say. For some reason, those who had followed Feng Yi, the red-ticket students, always felt that Feng Yi was just like the Revenge Shadow Rider. Even though they knew that the instructor's understanding of mecha was only intermediate, his temperament was exactly the same as that of Shadow Rider.

After all, neither Elvis nor Big Macs was as good as Feng Yi. But times have changed. After all, Feng Yi had only given them some guidance, but Elvis and Big Macs were different. These two were real candidates for the red-cloaks, and their strength had significantly improved.

Looking at the sighing Elvis, Feng Yi shook his head, "Feeling down?"

"Ah, don't mention it." Elvis threw a punch, indicating that the candidate selection for the red-cloaks this time still followed the traditional method. The military would carry out screenings in the Galactic Warfare. This was also to prepare for the all-out war. It was rumored that there was going to be a Hero Plan. Of course, Mu Tou accidentally heard this from Weirbo.

This exchange was between the distant Hell's Gate and the federation, and even allied countries like Zana and Weibang would log onto Galactic Warfare in their own star regions to participate. Technically, this was friendly exchange, but in reality, it was a competition first and a friendly match second. In the long run, it was nothing more than a means for all the major forces to prepare for the war by conscripting outstanding talents.

One hopeful fact was that the federation would select about ten red-cloaks. This was official news, and Mu Tou was one of the ten. His maximum hand speed was still far from reaching the threshold of red-cloaks. This was the damn fact from the officials. His brothers were happy for Mu Tou but also a bit jealous. Of course, they were mostly concerned. Wouldn't it mean that Mu Tou would have to face the enemy forces' red-cloaks if he became an elite red-cloak pilot? Given Mu Tou's personality, he might not even be able to handle the military department.

This is supposed to be a good thing, everyone should be happy for him. Feng Yi just asked Mu Tou's opinion separately. It was as simple as wanting or not wanting. If he didn't want to become a red-cloak and he wished to live a plain life, he just had to speak up. There's no need to hide anything.

Mu Tou's response, however, was quite straightforward. His two words 'I want' left Feng Yi speechless. He patted Mu Tou and encouraged him to do his best. After he made a name for himself in the military department, he should not forget to pull his brothers with him.

He himself was hardly able to manage even now. It had been more than half a year of fierce battles with Big Macs. He returned to the Capital Planet only to find his military rank upgraded from a high-ranking soldier to a junior lieutenant. Technically, a soldier shouldn't be allowed to become an officer, at most a non-commissioned officer. But wartime was different, others were moving up rapidly, but he was still a junior lieutenant. He was having a hard time as an instructor.

Feng Yi's miserable experience brought laughter to his brothers. He chatted with them about his real experiences on the frontline. Upon hearing about his penetration into Saudi's territory, everyone got worried for him. Sheng Qiangwei poured wine for Feng Yi from time to time, doing some things that a girlfriend can do, but by the end, even she forgot her motions, being fascinated by his stories.

Speaking of officers, Feng Yi's competence was undoubted. His brothers knew that he was not interested in becoming an officer, otherwise he wouldn't have spent over half a year at Big Macs without any news.

What caught Feng Yi's attention was the event organized by the officials this time. As a warrior, challenging strong opponents had always been one of Feng Yi's hobbies. He was considering whether to sign up for it? Of course, that was only if there was enough time. As of now, the news hadn't been made public yet.
