Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 416 366 Mech Pilot Selection2

Other people might have the luxury of striving slowly in the days to co, but he had to secure his qualification as a regular ch Pilot today. Only then could he obtain the rewards provided by the mission—the cha Transformation Plan 2.0.

All current chas are generally classified as first-generation chs, even the more formidable and specialized ones employed by the chanical Court.

The truly revolutionary second-generation chs are those that require a direct transformation in control mode.

Bai E didn't know how long it would take the world's own research and developnt capabilities to achieve this qualitative leap, but anything was always more reliable when in one's own hands.

This Transformation Plan 2.0, he must get his hands on it!

"Now, go and truly touch the exclusive weaponry that belongs to you!"

The imnse chas towered not far behind the crowd, which was why those behemoth-seeing warriors were excited and restless from the start.

No matter how realistic the driving experience in a simulation ch might be, it couldn't beat the excitent of actually handling the real thing.

The main body of the cha was painted in blue and white, standing tall under the sun, glittering and dazzling.

Each cha had a number written below it, and there was no scramble for chs since they had been preassigned.

In fact, all the chas had identical structures and appearances. As standardized weaponry supplied to the military, they were nothing like the customized chs used by the people of the chanical Court.

Following the previously trained safety protocols and rules, they secured their safety ropes and climbed quickly up the iron ladder at the back of the cha, Bai E and Rose using both hands and feet.

The cockpit of the cha was located in the chest area, high off the ground; a less physically gifted warrior might have fallen and possibly died on the spot if they slipped during the climb.

It wasn't easy to train a ch Pilot, and these safety protocols were also part of the assessnt. Even Bai E, who was confident of surviving a fall, wouldn't try to be innovative in such a situation.

"Click~"

"Click~"

"Buzz~"

As the cockpit door sealed shut, the sounds of various chanical structures moving within could be clearly heard by both of them.

What followed was a sense of robust power that struck them head-on, leaving the cabin so quiet that they could hear their own frantic heartbeats.

Their eyes swept over the surroundings, familiar yet strange, and an inadvertent glance between Bai E and Rose revealed nothing but sheer excitent in their eyes.

This is a cha!

[Discovery of a new "chanical structure," would you like to establish a link? (From: chanical Rhythm)]

This is my cha!

Even if "ch spirit" is elusive to most, the armored battalion believes in it.

Every pair of ch Pilots used their cha for both regular training and actual combat, and unless due to a manufacturing defect requiring a complete overhaul, the cha would not be replaced during the service period.

In other words, what they had now... would also be with Bai E for his entire career in the armored battalion.

So naturally...

[Initiating link establishnt!]

Establishing a link required continuous contact for at least 48 hours, but before that, the two abilities extracted from the intelligent machinery still faithfully played their basic effects.

"Buzz~" The electrifying sound activated the silent giant, and limitless vitality seed to spread inch by inch through the massive steel body.

The resonance granted by "chanical Mind" made Bai E feel as if his consciousness flowed through the entire cha in that instant.

The instructor's voice, accompanied by a buzzing sound, ca from the cockpit speaker, "All units, proceed to the designated target location, ti limit: 5 minutes."

As the voice sounded, from the perspective of the cockpit, they could see an off-road vehicle, kicking up two trails of dust, heading away from the military camp.

The instructor was sitting in the car.

And the assessnt, too, began now.

Of course, practical training with such enormous chas couldn't take place within the confines of the military camp; only the uninhabited wilderness was spacious enough for these massive giants to run amok without restraint.

"Received!"

"Received!"

There was no sound, only electronic key presses confirming receipt of the command.

On the electronic display visible to both drivers, the instructed destination appeared.

"Prepare to move forward."

"Received."

It was their first interaction with the actual control of a cha, and with Bai E and Rose's understanding, they conducted a standard exchange.

"Standard advance three gears."

"Following."

"Prepare to leap."

"Following."

Small mounds that they passed by were easily overco with the cha's large strides.

The standard formation when standing still was broken the mont they started.

Of course, that didn't matter.

chas, these massive and extrely difficult to manipulate weapons of war, were never expected to act in concert; each cha was a ferocious beast on the battlefield, a single one... able to form an army.

Only, the performance of so pilots… was exceptionally eye-catching.

So could flip over with one foot stepping on the other, while others simply tripped and fell.

Perhaps it was too exciting for those first touching a real cha, pilots who were seamlessly coordinated on normal days now fumbled dramatically, and the cha fell flat on its face.

The ground shook, startling the other soldiers in the training armored camp.

Fortunately, there were no critical supplies in the direction of the fall, and the space reserved between the chas was large enough to avoid additional collateral damage.

The instructor, watching through the unmanned drone's surveillance monitor, blushed slightly and gently covered their eyes, only to feel a strong low pressure enveloping the entire carriage the next mont.

"My... My lord," the instructor said, turning toward the towering figure sitting opposite, who also looked up at the surveillance screen. The man's half-dark, half-steel-gray face was ice-cold, which was chilling. Even as an instructor, their voice beca hesitant.

"Their usual training performance isn't like this. It may just be that they're too excited and nervous on their first contact with the cha today…" The instructor squeezed out a smile, trying to salvage so impression points for the cadets they had trained.

"...Hmm." After a long silence, a response devoid of emotion ca from the man draped in a dark coat, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Swiveling steel-gray eyes searched the screen, finally locking onto the code displayed on the paint of the overturned cha's ankle—W0713.

The instructor carefully observed the man's facial expression, but unable to discern much, simply offered a resigned smile, not daring to explain further.

...

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Each step from the cha's massive body caused the earth to tremble, and the actual sensation was precisely conveyed to Bai E through the hard connection of the cockpit.

Although the simulator also provided similar feedback, the overall feeling always fell short.

Not to ntion, with his chanical body and chanical mind, he had never felt as familiar with the controls in his hands as he did at that mont.

The sa level of chanical Rhythm, enhanced by two major chanical system abilities updated upon his return, made a significant improvent in touch sensitivity for operating.

Even a simple run seed to have a sense of smooth breathing, as if human.

And when he noticed the other chas also advancing not far away, a particular feeling arose as if… as if their movents were inexplicably stiff.

"What are you looking at?" Rose inquired curiously, noticing Bai E's gaze.

"Nothing," Bai E withdrew his gaze, looking toward the location designated by the instructor.

That off-road vehicle was already waiting at the finish line.

An impassive emissary from the chanical Court coldly tid the event, and the mont the countdown ended, they rcilessly issued the order, "Those who didn't make it, eliminated."
