Chapter 76: ABO
The ring field was dead silent.
No one could have predicted that things would turn out this way.
Ge Xiu raised his eyes to look at the observation platform not far away.
The light inside the platform was dim, and nothing could be seen.
He looked back calmly and then walked towards one of the chas.
The ring-shaped field was filled with eerie silence. Under the high ceiling, only the clear footsteps of Ge Xiu could be heard. Step by step, he approached the steel giant that was reflecting a silver-white cold glint under the light.
The student who just ran out of the cha was still standing beside him. His face was pale and he was holding onto the cha, as if he had not recovered from the impact from before.
Covering his stomach, he stepped back a little embarrassedly to make way for Ge Xiu, who ca forward.
The teenager held the tal shell of the cha, jumped up and turned over neatly in the air, jumping into the cabin.
With a buzzing sound, the cabin door closed.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on this cha, waiting with a bated breath.
Ge Xiu looked around the cabin and raised his eyebrows—although the general design was not much different from the cha he had previously driven, there were subtle differences in details and configuration.
However, this alone wouldn’t be enough to draw conclusions.
He sat in the pilot’s seat, the spinal connectors covered his spine from the back of his neck to his tail bone, and the dashboard in front of him glowed blue.
“Click” sounded twice softly.
The virtual control bracelets were buckled on his wrists, and an electronically synthesized voice sounded in the closed cabin: “The ntal power link was successful.”
At that mont, a weak feeling ran through his nerve ends like an electric current.
Ge Xiu couldn’t help being dazed.
This feeling…was very amazing.
As if the hard and huge tal cha outside had completely beco a part of him, as if the steel exoskeleton was a film covering his body, clinging to his skin lightly, waiting for his orders.
The last ti he drove the cha was really too perilous. The burning pheromones spread in his body so that all his senses were focused on the lower half of his body. With the Zerg chasing behind him that would catch up if he were a little slower it was impossible to feel the small feeling.
Ge Xiu took a deep breath and raised his hand to hold the control panel.
The slender and pale fingers clenched, closer and tighter fitting on the dark and cold tal surface.
“Engine drive mode activated.”
The electronic voice sounded in his ears.
The roar that suddenly exploded in the depths of the cha was accompanied by violent vibrations, every part of the steel machine trembled under the strong whirl of the engine, and the vitality of the machine trembled under his hand, leaping and roaring with joy—
Outside the cha.
The long period of silence made the students’ hearts float.
Discussion in lowered voices began to spread in the crowd, and so people even speculated whether this weak-looking oga passed out directly in the cockpit without even achieving the ntal link, or backed away and did not dare to continue, but he didn’t dare to co out afraid of losing face.
So, when the sound of the engine starting suddenly exploded, everyone was taken aback.
Percy raised the corners of his lips silently, gloating from one’s misfortune in his azure blue eyes, a look of visible pleasure and malice on his face.
When Iris decided to pilot the cha, he turned on the video recording function of his personal terminal, making sure to record every minute and every second of his embarrassnt.
He began to count down in his heart.
Would the oga collapse within a few seconds under the impact of the ntal link with the cha, and then rush out and vomit in pain?
Many sophomores had the sa look of waiting for a show on their faces.
They also did not like Iris. Not only because of his stalking behaviour and pursuit of the piloting genius Igor, but also because he switched to another departnt for this reason—every student who entered the highest federal university was a little arrogant, and those who the opportunists who co in through the backdoor were soone who they despised from the bottom of their hearts.
They were also expecting a complete failure of the ignorant oga.
Of course, the harder the fall, the better.
.
Ge Xiu was obsessed.
For him, machinery has always been a very fascinating thing—steel and tal subtly intertwining to construct a complete existence, and a programd creature starts to operate under the impetus of energy, becoming a living body independent of the world.
How wonderful.
The corners of his lips curled up uncontrollably, a trace of shivering excitent ran across his pale lips, and a fierce flashing electric current crackled in his pupils.
The hands clenching the instrunt panel pulled down one block at a ti, and the engine was full—
a huge roar resounded throughout the ring field.
The expressions of every onlooker beca more subtle—twenty seconds, thirty seconds…
Oga didn’t escape the cha as soon as the engine started, as they expected, but the sound of the machine started to get louder and louder instead, even to the point of being deafening—
on the observing platform.
The man sitting in the dark seed to realize sothing, he slowly straightened up, his eyes locked tightly on the cha in the center of the ring field, and there was a gleam of unknown aning in his dark and deep pupils.
The next second, the cha that was still standing in one spot a mont ago suddenly rushed out!
The gust of wind and the shocking roar from behind pushed the students surrounding the ring to the back, and they fell down in the blink of an eye!
The cha was like a silver lightning that pierced through the air, soaring to its maximum power in an instant, and it flashed through the ring field at an almost undetectable speed, leaving only an afterimage on the spot!
The intelligent training device in the field is automatically turned on under the impact of sound waves.
Countless obstacles suddenly rose, blue electronic ripples leaped in the air, and the sound of laser bullets pierced through the air—
the curvature of Ge Xiu’s lips deepened uncontrollably, and the sharp white canine teeth pressed against his lips, seeming as a shark who slled blood, with an almost fanatical savage look in his eyes.
The silver-white cha swept through the obstacles and the gaps between the obstacles in an almost impossible angle.
【E level obstacles passed and completed】
The emotionless electronic sound resounded throughout the training ground:
【Construction of obstacles level D, begin——】
It shuttled in the gaps between the lasers as if alive, and the violent roar of the engine resounded through the space as it was flying in the air at an astonishing speed.
Yost’s pupils shrank, staring at the cha in disbelief—
the students didn’t know it, but he was aware.
These chas were prototypes that had never been mass-produced, let alone put into the battlefield—they were specifically used to train the pilot’s ntal capacity.
The level of ntal link resistance of this cha was more than ten tis higher than that of ordinary chas. In theory, it could stimulate the potential, and developnt of the ntal power and fasten its growth by suppressing the pilot’s spirit.
Even if a trained and skilled pilot entered this kind of cha for the first ti he would have a hard ti getting used to such a strong link resistance, and even he wouldn’t be able to drive this cha without long training— let alone dragging it to such terrifying speed!
This.. was this possible?
Yost stared at the huge steel monster in shock and his mind went blank in an instant.
Was he really piloting a ch for the first ti…?
Inside the cockpit of the cha.
Ge Xiu was addicted to this feeling of speeding and extre control. The crazy excitent spread little by little along the ridians and bones to the whole body, and the adrenaline surged sharply. Every part of his body was trembling slightly, as if it was also trying to rge with the vibrating tal around him.
His pupils stared at the screen in front of him, his nerves tensed to the extre.
The uncontrollable mad and violent emotions hit his senses.
His fingertips holding the control panel were bloodless due to the force he was holding it with, his pale knuckles turned a pale bluish white.
Ge Xiu’s wrist continued to slowly and firmly press down with more strength, gradually increasing the speed—
The converged sound set off huge air waves, and the emotionless electronically synthesised voice resounded again through the entire venue:
【D level obstacles passed and completed】
This ti, the ti between the system prompts has been shortened twice:
【Construction of obstacles level C, begin—】
Then, after just a few short breaths, the electronic voice sounded again:
【C level obstacles passed and completed.】
Yost suddenly woke up from the shock, he hurriedly strode to the side of the ergency control panel, a vague feeling of anxiety spread on his face.
This situation cannot be allowed to continue.
The pressure that the human body can bear is limited. If the ntal force is stimulated to a certain extent, it will inevitably lead to the collapse of the body, and it would even leave so pilots disabled for life
What’s more, once the training obstacles level C has been passed…
the clear electronic voice resounded in the ring field again—
【Weapon loading mode is turned on! 】
—The system will automatically turn on the piloting weapon training! ! !
Yost clenched his teeth, feeling a layer of cold sweat on his back in an instant.
The astonishnt from a second before was completely swept away by a creeping sense of panic.
Not even the elentary course has been started by now and the other students have not taken any safety precautions at all! Once an accident occurs after turning on the weapon loading mode, the consequences would be unimaginable!
A faint red light began to flash on the laser weapon device at the front of the cha, like a dangerous warning sign, indicating an unpredictable and terrifying future—
at this mont.
“DI DI DI—”
A tingling pain ca from the wrist and the ear piercing alarm sounded in the empty cockpit.
Ge Xiu snapped back to his senses, looked down at the place where the sound ca from, and saw that the light on the dical wristband firmly attached to his wrist was flashing with a dangerous red light.
The speed of the cha slowed down.
At this mont Ge Xiu felt the soreness in his joints and muscles. His body had not fully recovered from the previous injury. This heavily pressuring operation made this already delicate oga’s body reach the limit.
A burst of uncontrollable dizziness struck him.
The scene in front of him also seems to double in his eyes and blur.
Ge Xiu blinked hard.
In the slightly cleared vision, the tal wall of the training ground was running at him at a very fast speed—or rather, he was rushing towards the wall at a very fast speed!
Ge Xiu was shocked, and he hardly had ti to think about it. He firmly grasped the control panel in his hands and pulled it back!
The silver-white cha suddenly turned sharply at the mont when it was about to hit the wall, and then rushed into the observatory on the side because of the inertia that could not be stopped!
tal ruptured, rocks fell everywhere with earthshaking impact.
The lights in the training ground shone into the dark observatory from the gap, illuminating the ss.
The damaged armour stopped after sliding for a few ters, the silver-white coating on the outside was scratched everywhere, and the hatch on the top was broken, revealing a large hole.
The high temperature steam caused by the overly energy sprayed out of the joins and instantly enveloped the narrow space in the observatory in a white mist.
Ge Xiu crawled out of the cockpit with difficulty, the ntal link at the back of the spine had been broken, and the wires and broken circuits were crackling with sparks.
He felt a rush of heat gush out of his nose, falling drop by drop on the broken tal surface in front of him.
Ge Xiu raised his hand and caught it.
Sticky and scarlet.
It was blood.
An encompassing feeling of weakness surged up from the depths of the body, as if the entirety of bodily functions was protesting to him, and the symptoms of dizziness struck again.
He heard only ringing in the ears.
Boundless white noise surrounded him from all sides.
He was temporarily deaf due to the impact of the explosion, and could only hear a monotonous and harsh beeping—
Ge Xiu blinked slowly, trying to dispel the haze in front of him.
In the misty white smoke in front of him, a tall man’s figure broke through the clouds of smoke and appeared in his sight.
That man stood backlit by the light, looking down at him condescendingly.
Shadows descended, covering his blurred vision.
But Ge Xiu couldn’t see anything—white smoke and steam completely shrouded the line of sight, the dust in the air swirled wildly in the high temperature, and the horizon was shaken by the impact from the explosion.
Through the beeping and the crackling sounds of the steel breaking, he heard a voice coming from above—
It felt as if it ca from a very distant place, the low voice was half exasperated and half helpless, and it took a lot of effort to barely discern so broken words words and voice tone:
“…why do we et like this every ti?”
