Whoosh—
The entire cockpit was almost engulfed in a deep blue brightness.
“What on earth is this…”
Lin Jin stared in astonishment. He had never seen such an incredible mental connection.
But soon, he had no time to ponder further because under the immense mental impact, his brain’s ability to think had completely disappeared.
This sensation was like suddenly dragging someone who couldn’t swim into the depths of an icy ocean. On the brink of death, they were still awestruck by that vast and mysterious realm.
He seemed to see countless images yet it was also like he saw nothing at all. All he felt was an indescribable sadness, like endless, cold seawater pouring deep into his lungs and heart.
What is this…?
Lin Jin didn’t know. It was the first time he realized how insignificant he was. Like looking up at the impending apocalypse, that immense sorrow, powerlessness, and despair submerged him. But strangely, there was also a sense of joy at witnessing the world’s final moments.
However, in Lin Jin’s eyes, that long passage of time fell back into reality within an instant.
Ding!
[Mental connection complete—]
Almost in the same instant, a dazzling and blinding beam of light pierced into everyone’s field of vision without warning.
No one could see what had happened at that moment, not even the mechas’ predictive systems reacted in time.
Within a distance of thirty meters, a sharp blade’s gleam was rapidly closing in.
Boom—!!!
A deafening sound!
Old Captain Huang, who had just spoken, was instantly pierced through his power system. The once bright red electronic eyes blinked twice and then went dark.
“…”
The scene fell into a dead silence.
No one had anticipated that, amidst heavy encirclement and with more than a dozen artillery shells ready to be launched, someone would dare to attack with a mere ordinary electric blade.
It’s important to note that the power system’s casing is the sturdiest part of the entire mech, nearly equivalent to the cockpit. This meant that, with that strike just now, if Huo Xianfeng had wanted to, he could have instantly killed the commander of this squad.

When he thought about it that way, young master Lin suddenly felt more at ease. Even the captain has fallen, so it isn’t particularly embarrassing that I have been subdued with a single move.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Old Captain Huang’s expression instantly turned extremely serious.
This was definitely not the kind of strength an ordinary poacher could possess!
No matter what, he couldn’t allow this person to escape!!!
The black mecha immediately, like a giant python coiling around its prey, reached out and firmly grabbed its opponent. The barrel of its cannon promptly adjusted its direction, aiming squarely at Huo Xianfeng.
This method was akin to killing a thousand enemies at the cost of losing eight hundred—
However, the red mecha not only didn’t evade but instead stayed close to Old Huang. At the critical moment when the cannon’s muzzle gleamed with a ivory light, Huo Xianfeng twisted his long blade in a risky move, managing to alter the electromagnetic cannon’s original trajectory at the last instant.
At that moment, the dazzling electric light came straight towards them, causing the three mechas that were about to charge forward to abruptly come to a halt.
“Not good, quickly…” evade.
But there was no time—
Boom!!!
With no defense whatsoever, the three mechas were immediately sent flying hundreds of meters.
This scene appeared absurd and comical, but in reality, only the side that had been passively hit knew how unimaginable it was. Just a millimeter of error in that previous strike wouldn’t have achieved such an effect.
“Fire immediately—!!!” Old Huang’s furious shout nearly reached a breaking point.
As the command was given, the densely packed gun barrels instantly adjusted their aim towards Huo Xianfeng, and countless streaks of snowy lights lit up. In the nick of time, the red mecha suddenly swung its blade horizontally, directly slashing through the blockade.
The blade scraped against numerous severed metal wires, sparking a series of crackling fireworks.
“Is this what you meant,”
The boy opened the team communication channel, and carelessly said,
“—When you said fireworks?”
Without waiting for a response, a second before the laser cannon reached him, Huo Xianfeng kicked the opponent’s cockpit downward.
That caused a deafening, ear-shattering roar!
If this second could be infinitely slowed down, it would be an incredibly spectacular scene. The terrifying strength of the steel giant directly caused a shocking shockwave in the air, and the erupting aftermath shattered the so-called mecha encirclement.
The red mecha, however, used the recoil force to narrowly pass by several laser cannons. The multiple laser beams suddenly collided, and the resulting snowy light instantly engulfed the lower half of the black mecha, blinding everyone’s field of vision. It was like a giant stone crashing into a lake, and the tremendous energy wave burst forth, creating a brilliant and colorful display in the pitch-black night, like a world of fireworks .
Whoosh—
The red mecha leaped into the explosion’s firestorm like an arrow, shooting straight up into the sky! The once pitch-black sky was now as bright as day, casting a radiant glow on the names of the fallen on the Heroes Monument, especially the one at the very top—Huo Chao. The youth’s gaze lingered on that name for a few seconds before shifting away.
He glanced at the bewildered rookie reflected in the glass, and casually asked, “So, did you enjoy the fireworks?”
Old Huang, who had been kicked away: “…”
Lin Jin, who had been watching the entire spectacle: “…”
The Fifth Squad after being mocked through the team communication channel: “…”
Damn, it’s so infuriating!!!
However, this squad was composed of seasoned veterans with extensive battlefield experience. After their initial defeat, they quickly changed their approach. Two of them went to rescue their captain who had a damaged power system and informed headquarters, while the other seven swiftly caught up with the red mecha.
Huo Xianfeng had no intention of killing, otherwise, he wouldn’t have targeted the captain’s power system earlier, but he would have gone straight for the cockpit. He didn’t intend to fight back either, and he didn’t even activate a defense shield. He just skillfully evaded the rain of lasers behind him.
Miraculously, he emerged unscathed!
This scene was as if it was pouring rain outside, and you were being held hostage by a robber in a convertible, but the robber skillfully dodged every raindrop, not getting wet at all.
However unscientific it may seem, this was exactly what was happening right before their eyes. For a moment, Lin Jin felt like he was in a dream.
“Is this some kind of joke…”
The pursuing team, after experiencing all of this, was left dumbfounded, unable to find words to describe what they had just witnessed.
In what appeared to be a fierce battle, Huo Xianfeng even had the leisure to chat with his captive.
“It seems your companions are quite considerate of you,” he had rapidly become accustomed to speaking without the odd pauses and accents from earlier, “They held back quite a bit, not even aiming at the cockpit.”
Lin Jin: “…”
Damn, isn’t it that your evasive maneuvers make it impossible to get a good aim?!
No!
The second young master Lin clenched his fist forcefully, forcing himself to stay alert. In the face of the enemy, how could a resolute soldier give up so easily? Even if he had become a captive, he couldn’t just sit idly by.
Lin Jin’s heart was pounding like thunder, and he broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead. This cocky criminal youth must belong to some vast underground criminal organization, possibly involved in some earth-shattering conspiracy.
Like assassinating a high-ranking official, or detonating the capital, and perhaps even inciting rebellion and rioting.
So, Lin Jin worked hard to adjust his mindset and decided to do what he could, such as gathering information.
“What… what do you want to do?”
“Hmm?” Amidst the hail of gunfire, Huo Xianfeng glanced over momentarily. “The way you phrase it, you really sound like a rookie.”
The second young master of the Lin family who was seen through again: “…”
However, just as Lin Jin was about to choke on his words, the youth changed the subject.
“In consideration of you lending me your clothes and mecha,” Huo Xianfeng continued, “I suppose I can tell you about my plan…”
Lin Jin suddenly looked up, unconsciously swallowing hard. His mind flashed with countless bloody and dark images from movies.
Assassination, explosions, stealing national secrets, underground black market dealings, arms trafficking, extreme psychopath elements… All these possibilities flashed rapidly through Lin Jin’s mind as he saw Huo Xianfeng wearing a very serious expression.
“I plan to,” the youth said earnestly, “first find a male-alpha specialized doctor to check my physical condition.”
Lin Jin: “…Huh?”
An Alpha-specialized doctor???
Because he was deeply lost in thought, Huo Xianfeng didn’t notice Lin Jin’s shocked and speechless expression. Even though the latter only made an incredulous sound of disbelief, it couldn’t stop both of his eyes from clearly conveying the message: “You, at such a young age, already have a hidden disease?”
—That’s what his eyes seemed to say.
Pfft. Keep everyone guessing…. Thanks for the update 🤣❤️🤣❤️
