Ch 8: Regarding the Red Mecha? Codename: “Leo”

“Beep beep beep.”

HUT Defense Force branch meeting room.

“Damn it! Damn it all, five out of my ten colleagues are undercover agents!”

“What the hell is the Surveillance Bureau doing?”

“I’ll chop him up!”

“Calm down, calm down, Chai Lang.”

Although there weren’t many casualties this time, it’s clear that the problems within the Defense Force are far too significant.

The number of undercover agents was almost greater than the number of official personnel.

If headquarters hadn’t sent people down in time to suppress the situation, the Xingyun City branch would have been wiped out long ago.

Speaking of which, Li Xin looked at the two young men on the main seats.

Mo Fei, the owner of the SS+ mecha “Kaitian”.

And Kaile, the owner of the SS+ mecha “Miedi”.

Everyone in the meeting room was waiting for someone.

This was originally an era of great prosperity, an era of extraordinary talent.

If that hadn’t happened, there would be more and more Super Mechas.

Note: SS+ and above are classified as Super Mechas.

Zhou Chuyi slowly walked in, her appearance captivating everyone’s attention, even Mo Fei was not surprised.

Her stunning appearance was one thing, the second was her terrifying talent.

Zhou Chuyi stepped forward and copied the video onto the large screen.

The glorious deeds of the Red Mecha appeared before everyone.

In the first scene, the Red Mecha quickly killed the Demon Orb and kicked Kui Lang to death.

Mo Fei could do the first part, but he couldn’t guarantee the second.

In the second scene, the Red Mecha displayed overwhelming physical skills, beating a Level 4 monster to a pulp.

Especially the act of using cars and buses as weapons had everyone sweating.

Level 4 monsters are comparable to the strength of S-class mechas, even SS-class mechas.

The evaluation of monsters varies; they possess unknown potential.

Most importantly, the battle between the SS-type mecha Capricorn and the Red Mecha.

Various data indicate that the Red Mecha is infinitely close to an SSS-class mecha; Capricorn was beaten without a chance to fight back.

The good news is, it seems to be on our side.

After watching the video, everyone fell into a brief silence.

An SSS-class mecha is practically invincible nationwide; even the one from Qing City doesn’t exude as much pressure as this mecha.

Especially when it fired that strange energy sphere.

“What do you all think?”

Li Xin forced a smile.

“What else can we think? We watch with our eyes, of course.”

Chai Lang said with his arms crossed, looking unconcerned.

“Let’s wait and see.”

Seeing everyone’s silence, Li Xin sighed; after all, the Red Mecha hadn’t shown any hostility.

However, Kaile became curious about this mecha.

“Height 52m, weight approximately 42,000 tons, punch force unknown, grip strength unknown.”

“Two devices, one for a jumping flying kick, the other for energy spheres…”

This is the information they’ve been able to gather so far.

“Let’s give it a codename and upload it to Skynet.”

Li Xin suddenly thought of something; they couldn’t keep calling it the Red Mecha.

“Storm Crimson?”

Because it’s entirely red, Mo Fei thought it was a good name.

“Lion King?”

Chai Lang chuckled; in an instant, everyone sighed; what a terrible name.

Chai Lang wanted to argue; the mecha itself looks like a lion, okay?

“Leo.”

Zhou Chuyi, who had been silent, slowly uttered these two words. She didn’t know why, but she felt that this mecha should be called Leo.

“Leo?”

When everyone heard the name, they subconsciously looked at Zhou Chuyi.

“Let’s go with that then.”

Li Xin nodded, applying to upload Leo’s two videos to Skynet; the name sounded pretty good.

On the other hand, Chen Yi had just finished dinner with his mother and came to the training area in the back garden.

Chen Yi’s mother, Yu Yinyin, is a senior researcher at the Xingyun City Underground Monster Research Institute.

This place is also a training ground allocated by the institute.

Chen Yi summoned Feili and had it transform to his size.

Feili, now the same height as Chen Yi, suddenly sniffed at Chen Yi, seemingly detecting something attractive.

Chen Yi also noticed Feili’s abnormality; he looked at the pendant on his chest.

The pendant, like a magnet, kept moving towards Feili.

Chen Yi took off the pendant. It was an amulet his mother gave him; could there be something special about it?

Suddenly, a green crystal stone from the pendant flew into Feili’s body.

Feili suddenly froze, then opened its eyes again.

Chen Yi was startled and stepped back, cautiously watching Feili.

“Beep beep beep, Master, I am Feili!”

Feili, as if possessing self-awareness, started dancing.

“It talked? My own mecha.”

Chen Yi was full of questions, looking at Feili in disbelief.

“Feili?”

“I’m here! Master!”

Chen Yi looked at his mecha in astonishment.

He remembered everything that had just happened; it seemed that it had absorbed the pendant his mother gave him and completed an upgrade?

“Um…”

Chen Yi thought for a moment, grinned, and said.

“Um… ‘Master’ doesn’t sound good.”

“Call me Older Brother.”

“From now on, you are my Younger Brother, Feili.”

“Yay! Older Brother, I’m your Younger Brother Feili.”

Feili happily danced another mechanical dance?

“Feili, what new functions do you have?”

“Super nanomaterials, regenerative metal, energy conversion…”

Feili tapped its fingers, listing them one by one.

“Super nanomaterials? Regenerative metal?”

Chen Yi couldn’t imagine what it meant to have a mecha with self-awareness.

Yu Yinyin secretly took it from the Mother Stone after repeated research.

She secretly developed the Smart Type-1, codenamed “Xizi,” a Super Core Device.

It inherently possesses limitless possibilities, waiting for Chen Yi to explore.

This was also Yu Yinyin’s gift to Chen Yi, hoping it would protect him.

“Can you transform into me?”

Feili’s dark eyes blinked, seemingly scanning Chen Yi.

“Simulating, beep…”

The next second, another Chen Yi appeared in front of Chen Yi; Chen Yi subconsciously stepped back.

“Damn…”

“Okay, starting now, Terminator 10 will be remade by me, Chen Yi.”

Chen Yi opened his mouth in disbelief, reached out and touched Feili’s face; the realistic texture made Chen Yi subconsciously believe that what he saw was a real person.

“Do you have any weapons?”

“Beep, Older Brother, yes.”

Feili nodded, simulating the mecha’s shoulder cannons, cluster cannons, light cannons…

and it seems there’s even a railgun in its belly?

Feili’s hand suddenly glowed, and a laser sword suddenly appeared in its hand.

“Hiss….”

Chen Yi saw the laser sword appear and couldn’t dodge in time; his left arm was slightly grazed.

Blood flowed out continuously.

“Older Brother!”

Feili quickly put away its weapon; its eyes could even simulate human disappointment and self-blame.

Chen Yi waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

“Older Brother, I’m sorry…”

“It’s okay, Feili.”

Chen Yi gently hugged Feili; Feili suddenly realized something.

Some gray liquid flowed towards Chen Yi’s arm; the next second, the wound on Chen Yi’s hand healed at a visible speed.

“What!?”

A gleam of surprise flashed in Chen Yi’s eyes; Feili actually had this function.

“Older Brother, it’s okay now.”

Feili smiled, with anticipation in its eyes.

“You’re amazing, Feili.”

Chen Yi gave a thumbs-up; Feili danced with joy again.

“By the way, Feili, can you merge with me?”

“In this state.”

“Beep, no problem, Older Brother.”

Feili grabbed Chen Yi’s hand; Chen Yi’s mouth slightly opened. In Chen Yi’s shocked gaze, Feili, like venom, covered Chen Yi’s body.

“!!!”
