Chapter 233: The Weapon ‘Regretless’!! Chapter 233: The Weapon ‘Regretless’!! Editor: H2dH2mr Another resounding “Bam!” The giant python was pouncing forward again.
Ling Lan controlled her cha to leap up into the air, kicking forwards forcefully with its hind legs.
The python was sent flying back by the powerful kick — the python and the cha were only in contact for a brief mont before they were moving off in different directions again to land in two separate locations, once more facing each other in a standoff.
“Warning!
Over-capacity usage of cha’s hind legs.
Damage at 7%.
Please use with caution; cherish your cha!” Within the cockpit, the cha’s mainfra imdiately issued a warning, protesting the brute actions of its operator.
That last kick may have pushed the python back, but because the giant python was really just too big and too heavy, the cha had had to bear a force which exceeded its anti-shock capacity, causing the cha to incur a certain degree of damage.
“Tch, even this is no good?” Ling Lan had thought to use the cha’s own body to attack to compensate for the lack of weapons, but now it looked like things would not be so simple.
She smacked the control stick moodily and said, “This trainee cha is just too godd*mn fragile.” Little Four could not help but dab at his sweat inside the mindspace.
Since the start of her studies, Ling Lan’s cha combat style was already showing signs of being of the wild and barbaric type.
He still rembered how she had caused her cha to be all scratched up, bearing wounds from being pushed beyond its limits.
In the end, they had had no choice but to spend so much credits to repair the cha, only thus preventing the cha from completely breaking down.
Therefore, regardless of how strong or solid the cha was, it would not fare much better than this rabbit cha in Ling Lan’s hands.
This was because Ling Lan would forever bring out the greatest combat power a cha was capable of, even pushing for more — it would be stranger if the cha did not break down!
******** [No cha Unrepaired] rubbed away the trickle of blood at the corner of his lips, forcefully suppressing the nausea he still felt from the bloody stench as he operated his cha to get up from the ground.
anwhile, the inside of his cockpit had long beco flooded with alerts from the mainfra, which was warning non-stop that the cha had been attacked, and displaying the resulting damage levels.
He unstintingly used a low-level repair kit, letting the cha be completely repaired in a very short period of ti.
Of course, while he did all this, his gaze had not once left the battle scene 30 tres away.
When he saw that the rabbit cha was left with only one short sword weapon, he could not help but beco anxious; he understood that if the rabbit cha could not finish off this frighteningly ginormous python, the both of them would definitely lose their lives here.
“No, it was so difficult to find such a strong cha operator to bring to Suncreed City, I definitely cannot die here, wasting all that effort!” [No cha Unrepaired] was naturally unwilling to just admit defeat.
He opened up his bag, desperately searching through it to see if there were any cold weapons the rabbit cha could use within it.
Right then, he was sowhat thankful that he was in the wilds, and not in a combat arena.
In a combat arena, it was not permitted to change one’s equipped weapons halfway.
When he ca to a pitch-black weapon, he could not help but stare at it blankly.
“Should we use this one?” [No cha Unrepaired] looked at this cold weapon he had developed in Three-Seas Town.
It was shaped like a tangdao1 of olden tis, but its blade was not like the clean diagonal-cut edge of a traditional tangdao, instead sporting an extrely conspicuous concavity.
This concavity was deep near the edge, becoming gradually shallower as it travelled along the body of the blade to spread along its entire surface.
The entire sword was a sheet of black, not as eye-catching as other brighter and flashier weapons.
However, it silently emitted a type of killing intent, letting people know that this was no ordinary sword.
Of course, that was all they would know — only its creator and the one who used it would be able to truly comprehend the fearso nature of this sword.
This was a lethal weapon [No cha Unrepaired] had forged using the best materials he could gather in Three-Seas Town.
Back when he had succeeded, it had let him advance two stages, from trainee cha chanic to advanced cha chanic, in an instant.
Back then, he had been young and cocky — in his pride and joy, he had forgotten that he should hide his light under a bushel1 until he was sufficiently strong enough to protect himself.
He had proclaid his na in a high-handed fashion, allowing the Thunder King to figure out his identity.
In the end, whether it was here in the cha world, or in reality, the Thunder King had been pressuring him with the power of his faction to join his organisation.
As a result of his unwillingness to submit, he had been restricted by the other to Three-Seas Town, unable to move.
If he was not able to pass the assessnt this year because of this, then he would be rcilessly cast out from the First n’s Military Academy.
The Thunder King was precisely such a ruthless character.
Anyone who did not submit to him would definitely have their future crushed by him.
[No cha Unrepaired] had never ever considered selling off this cold weapon.
Even though a few strong fighters had tried offering extrely high prices before out of curiosity at this weapon’s stats, and he too had known that he might be able to leave Three-Seas Town if he just sold this sword …
he had still decided to keep this weapon with him until he was pushed to the absolute brink.
Not just because this was his pride and honour, but also as a reminder to himself of his ignorance, his hubris, his weakness, his sha, as well as his reason for resisting.
“I nad it ‘Regretless1’, to remind myself that I have chosen not to regret.
At the sa ti, I also hope that this weapon will be able to display its glory in the hands of a cha operator who would allow it to attack with no regrets …
perhaps, its master has appeared!” [No cha Unrepaired] looked at the nimble figure of the rabbit before his eyes, and with a grit of his teeth, he resolutely pulled out the sword Regretless which ant so much to him.
As Regretless fully appeared in the dense forest, the temperature of the initially already extrely cold and sinister forest suddenly dipped further, causing [No cha Unrepaired] to tremble involuntarily.
[No cha Unrepaired] stroked the blade of Regretless affectionately.
When he lifted his head once more, his gaze was filled with conviction.
He knew very well that if [Lingtian First-String] truly kept his promise and brought him to Suncreed City, he would definitely offend the Thunder King.
Even though [Lingtian First-String] had yet to complete the mission, [No cha Unrepaired] found himself sohow trusting the other without reason.
They had only spent a short while together, but he had co to learn that though the other was cold and domineering, he was definitely a responsible man.
Thus, he believed that Regretless would not fade into obscurity if he gave it to him.
Under [Lingtian First-String]’s skilful control, Regretless would definitely shine its brightest.
He hoped that one day, if [Lingtian First-String] really ended up clashing head-on with the Thunder King, the weapon he used in that encounter would be Regretless …
Intense light flashed through [No cha Unrepaired]’s eyes.
He shouted abruptly, “[Lingtian First-String], catch!” [No cha Unrepaired] controlled his cha to throw Regretless; Ling Lan could only see a blur of dark light flying towards her.
She calmly operated her rabbit cha’s right hand to reach out in a grab, and abruptly felt a heavy weight in her hands.
Unprepared, she almost lost her footing.
However, Ling Lan’s adaptive ability was extrely powerful.
She instantly activated the engine on her right side, using the great thrust generated by it to stabilise the cha’s slightly tilting body.
“What weapon is this, actually so heavy?” Ling Lan peered curiously at the weapon in the rabbit’s hands.
It was a cold weapon like a dao1 but not a dao, like a sword but not a sword.
Still, based on its weight that almost unbalanced her cha alone, she could tell that this weapon was definitely special.
However, reality did not allow Ling Lan to think too much about it; the giant python was attacking again.
The rabbit cha’s forelegs were not very strong — Ling Lan was afraid that she would not be able to wield this clearly very heavy weapon single-handedly.
So, she decisively gripped the sword with both hands and swung it out fiercely towards the python’s attack trajectory.
A loud “boom” rang out!
The body of the sword and the snapping sharp fangs of the giant python collided violently!
Screech ~!
The sturdy fang and the sword scraped against each other forcefully, emitting an ear-splitting high-pitched noise!
Crack!
A crisp sound, and a fang suddenly popped out, whizzing away to bury itself in a large tree not too far away from the fight.
This sword may seem extrely thin, but its hardness had exceeded that of the mutated python’s fang.
At the sa ti, this result also proved that the sharpness of the sword was at a fearso level.
“Scram!” Ling Lan barked, revving her cha’s engines and its supplentary thrusters to the max.
With a powerful spring of her strong hind legs, the force was transmitted to the sword in her hands, actually sending the entire giant python flying back.
A loud thump!
The python once again crashed into the ground.
But this ti, things were different.
It was actually writhing in agony, bellowing loudly to the skies.
It turned out that that previous strike had not only broken off one of the python’s fangs, it had also left a wound on the python’s face, which was currently bleeding profusely.
“Oh my god, this sword is so sharp!” Little Four was exclaiming in Ling Lan’s mindspace.
cha cold weapons in general sacrificed sharpness to maintain its sturdiness and strength.
Many cold weapons were all made in the form of spiked club-like weapons, or perhaps extrely thick swords.
Their characteristics were all focused on solidness and heft rather than sharpness.
“It’s not just sharp …
its tensile strength is also amazingly good.
Such a narrow blade actually having the sa tensile strength as broader and thicker swords — no, perhaps even better by a bit.” Compared to sharpness, Ling Lan was more concerned about its tensile strength, for this would decide the lifespan of a weapon.
No matter how sharp a sword was, if it did not have enough tensile strength, breaking apart after just a few uses, then it would still be utterly useless.
“This cha world is pretty interesting, actually having this sort of weapon …” Little Four sensed that this cha world was not completely the sa as the real world.
This piqued his interest to find out all the secrets of this cha world.
“Having this complentary weapon in hand, I don’t need to waste any more ti.” Ling Lan felt that she could finally let loose and attack now.
She twirled her new sword once, then leapt unhesitatingly towards the giant python.
“F*ck!
Why didn’t he first take so ti to get used to the weapon?
Attacking directly?
Does he not want to live?” [No cha Unrepaired] was beyond anxious — cha operators needed to familiarise themselves with their cha’s weapons before they would be able to generate the greatest combat power with them.
Using an unfamiliar weapon may backfire due to the resultant control errors, causing a person’s combat power to decrease instead.
This was also why [No cha Unrepaired] was worried for Ling Lan.
The giant python saw its initially defensive opponent suddenly initiating an attack.
Feeling as if it had been impugned, it was instantly in a towering rage.
It ignored the pain of the wound on its face to leap forwards once more, ready to teach this detestable fellow before it a profound lesson.
It would let him know that a king’s dignity would not be trod upon.
Both sides clashed once more, and this ti, Ling Lan no longer had any reservations.
She used the rabbit cha’s full power from the start, causing Little Four’s heart to ache, as well as causing the cockpit to be filled with the ringing warnings of the cha’s mainfra, “Warning!
Engine power exceeded 120%.
cha operating over-capacity.
cha is sustaining damage, 5%, 7%, 10% …” i.e.
a straight, single-edged sword that was said to have been invented and used during the Tang dynasty.i.e.
lay low and conceal his talent.T/C: This reminds so much of the naming of the pairs in ‘Loveless’ sohow.The ‘dao’ here is in reference to the Chinese weapon, like in the term ‘tangdao’ previously.
Differentiated from the great evolution pathway ‘Dao’, which I will be capitalizing all the way.
