Chapter 912: Alliance

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Suddenly, the three Mechs soared into the sky and their backs shot out blue flames about one meter long. The thick ropes that were stuck on their bodies snapped off and the sheer force of it caused it to whip two other people. They bled all over their bodies and crashed into the wall before falling to the ground, dead.

The Mechs forced open the ceiling of the hangar before flying out.

Garen who had just arrived at the hangar narrowed his eyes, staring at the middle Mech. His black Mech was precisely tied to its back.

He glanced over the area with his eyes.

Shua!!

He did a series of backflips and left behind vivid after-images and arrived at a huge piece of black metal, one meter thick.

“Up!!” he growled and picked up the piece of metal so easily as if he was uprooting a willow tree before rotating his body like a spinning top.

Amid the sound of wind, the piece of metal let out a shrill sound, hurting the ears of all the people in the hangar.

The spinning top then suddenly stop.

‘Boom!!!’

The sharp end of the black piece of metal was thrown out by Garen like a railgun, straight for the blue Mech that was turning.

Clang! A loud sound was produced.

The metal did not pierce through the Mech’s armor and bounced off.

“Idiot!” Veci was startled inside the Mech but now that she saw this scene, her heart relaxed.

Just as everyone below were disappointed, something changed.

The black Body that was tied to the back of Veci’s Mech suddenly slid and fell. It turned out that the black metallic rope that was tied around her was broken.

Garen’s expression remain unchanged. Looking at the black Body that fell down from the sky, he took a few steps back, giving the Body some distance to land.

With a loud sound, the black Mech crashed down on top of the hangar by the edge of the entrance and then tumbled down through the opening and rolled towards the crowd of people.

Peng!!

Little fatty and the others did not even managed to react before they were crushed into pulp, leaving only traces of flesh and blood on the ground. Blood kept flowing out from under the Mech.

Garen was expressionless. He did not even look at the blood by his feet before slowly walking forward and slipping into the cockpit.

In the sky, Veci saw this scene unfold and was totally dumbfounded. Adding to that, her two companions were as dumbfounded as she was.

He could precisely throw up a piece of metal weighing a hundred kilograms with flesh and blood, accurately smash apart the metallic rope tied around the Mech. Although the armour of the Mech had been tampered with to ensure its toughness was stronger than any normal metal, the metallic rope that was found hastily did not have the same toughness.

“Weng...”

The eyes of the black Mech on the ground lit up. A strong and terrifying aura spead and the Level Five Willpower and Field activated.

The black Mech pushed the ground with both its hands and jumped upwards with its thrusters releasing blue flames behind it while charging towards the three in the sky.

“L-Level Five Pilot!??!!” Veci’s eyes showed traces of fear. “Run!!”

She roared. There was no will to even resist it in her heart so she directly activated the largest output of the thruster and flew away.

The talent of a pilot also had its limits. This talent decided not only the speed but also the upper limit of the the training method.

Those with a normal talent had a limit to their willpower. Even if they spent their lifetime in training, the would only be able to reach a certain level of their own limit, which was Level Four.

Only excellent pilots could reach Level Five in their lifetime and it was the level of those who were instructors and professors in academies.

Veci herself was one of the most outstanding people in the V Academy. She naturally understood what Level Five pilots signified.

The talent of a pilot was the innate limit of the body. The body was like a fixed basin and the amount of water the basin could hold was fixed from birth. Normal people was limited at Level Four and outstanding ones could become Level Five. The world of Level Five pilots were different from normal people. They did not seek wealth, but instead something ethereal like Resonance pilot and Inheriting pilot.

Due to the fact that the limit of a human body was Level Five, only with the help of Exclusive Mech with a resonance degree could they gradually improve their talent and improve even further.

Veci was already thirty years old and was close to graduation but had barely entered the initial stage of Level Four. If she did not earn some money now, she would not be able to enter and exit the radiation belt with the academy’s name. She would also lose the method which would enable her to earn a lot of money.

However, the change that had happened was something she had never thought of.

Without another word, the three Mechas flew away with full power.

“One Level Four and two Level Three. This kind of trash dares to meddle with my Mech?” Garen sat inside the cockpit and moved his Willpower.

Crouched Eagle Talons’ explosive force burst and a circle of white gas bloomed and slowly spread out.

Comparing explosive force in limited range, the Crouched Eagle Talons was comparable to those training methods that were quite good!!

The black Mech became a black line and his standard was a level higher than the other three. Those three Mechs were branded Mech that could be found in the market and was similar to Battlenet’s Mechs, which used civilian technology. Compared to the military’s Blackboard Captain-class Mech, they were inferior and no to mention that Garen himself had a skill that allowed him to speed up his flying.

Garen’s Mech shot out as fast as lightning with both arms open like a large black bird. One of his arms got around the neck of Vici’s Mech and in a flash, he had all three Mechs by their necks in his arm. He mercilessly slammed them down onto the ground which caused a gust of wind to pass.

Peng! Boom!

The three Mechs that were caught in his arms like slices of bread were smashed violently onto the ground, causing the whole Flying Batoid City to tremble.

One of the Mechs who would not bear the impact exploded into flames and fragments, causing the other two Mech pilots that were to scream in panic. Due to the close proximity, both Mechs were greatly damaged and burnt.

“Don’t kill me, I beg you!”

Sounds of cries and screams came from inside Veci’s cockpit. This woman was on the verge of collapse and the moment of greed caused her endless remorse. She had always had a careful attitude, even when she was out in the radiation belt so that she could avoid disaster again. She never thought that one time of greediness could cause such a consequence.

Garen pulled out a sword from the waist of one of the Mechs and stabbed the cockpit of another Mech by his side. A subtle sound came from inside and then blood started flowing along the sword. The armor that was heated up by the explosion then evaporated the blood, which caused a fishy smell and a hissing sound.

While ignoring her pleading cries, Garen tore off the sensor on Veci’s Mech, along with other things he needed like scabbard. Within a flash, the sword in his hand chopped off all four limbs of the blue Mech. The strong armor of the Mech was no different to tofu under his sword skill. This was not the only difference in their Mechs’ specs. Although it was only a common, standard sword, it had transformed into a weapon of God in Garen’s hand. His understanding of the gaps in the Mechs’ Body allowed him to cut through them easily.

“No!!!” Veci seemed to have noticed her end and her body jerked.

Chi!!

The tip of the sword pierced through the cockpit without even a hint of hindrance.

Her voice stopped.

Garen stood up and stowed the blue sword in his hand. This came just in time as both his swords had corroded and now, he had obtained another weapon to use.

Opening the cockpit, he started inspecting the bodies on the pilot. One of them were completely unrecognizable due to the explosion and nothing much remained while the other was penniless and had nothing valuable.

As for Veci’s body, he found a V Academy’s eighth year student card and a silver-white identity card. He brought them both back to his Mech and read the information inside. On the identity card was written something like Namu Clan.

“Such a small clan and yet she dare rob them?” Garen helplessly said.

The Mech went back to the hangar where all the workers had already gathered. With Vendant in the lead, they were all kneeling with their heads hanging down and did not dare move a muscle. There were pieces of debris that had flew and fallen at their side with the edges covered in blood. Vendant and the others’ heads and backs were covered in blood and wounds. Apparently, the debris had fallen on them and caused those injuries.

Other people were gathered at the side with bewildered expressions on their faces.

“Find out who helped those three pilots and get rid of them”, Garen said. The Mech slowly fell and Garen came out of the cockpit and jumped down. He got out of the hangar while ignoring the people who were kneeling. This allowed Vendant and the others to sigh in relief.

In radiation belt, the most worthless thing was human life. They thought they were going to die for sure but did not expect that Garen would spare their lives. If it were other people in the radiation belt, they would have been executed at the first sign. There were too many people that were implicated in genocide due to the failure of important tasks they were in charge of. There would also be people ready to join Flying Batoid City out there.

Garen had not gotten far away from the hangdar before there were cries pleading for mercy. Unexpectedly, just as he returned to his small courtyard, he saw the crowd standing outside, staring at a figure in a black cloak.

All the radioactive people only dared to stay outside the courtyard but this man dared to stand in the middle of it and he seemed to be waiting for Garen to come back. As though sensing his line of eyesight, the man turned around and revealed a face covered by a silver white mask.

“I’ve been waiting for you.”
