Chapter 117: Mad Mecha

As for the detailed data that various mecha companies want, that’s impossible. This data involves the Alliance’s most advanced, top-tier space quantum communication technology. This tech allows the military’s communication to have no delay, directly using point-to-point space communication.

However, it’s limited to communication. More complex technical support is needed for things like high-definition video calls, just like how 2G is enough for simple voice calls, but for video calls, you need more data support.

In Yang Bo’s case, the signal is transmitted through space quantum transmission to the nearest base station, which then relays it to the military’s communication station on the planet where Yang Bo used to play his games.

This method ignores energy interference and is highly secure, almost impossible to hack. That’s why the military would never hand over this data to the mecha companies.

So what the mecha company can only observe is a rough outline. Essentially, a mecha that shouldn’t be powered on is activated, and someone used it, but figuring out who did it? Impossible.

“I’ve been waiting for you all!” Yang Bo opened all advanced mecha systems and deployed them around the entry point in layers, prone on the ground, crouching in the middle, squatting below that, and finally standing at the top. Dozens of mecha in four layers aimed their laser weapons at the entry point,l on automatic attack mode.

“Anyway, these mechas are just fodder for Iron Bull. I’ll destroy them afterward. Even if the mecha company notices something off, could they even find the wreckage on this planet?” Yang Bo wasn’t worried about being exposed, as he had layer upon layer of camouflage.

In the main control room, the alarm kept ringing. There’s no surveillance here because it’s the most critical zone. If it were monitored and the network was hacked, someone could see all the core details.

It’s like when Earth was developing nuclear submarines, always feeling like something was wrong with the design until getting clues from foreign toys, which provided plenty of inspiration.

Sometimes, secrets aren’t as grand as they seem. Yang Bo remembered hearing about a formidable aircraft that scared an opponent to death. After relentless efforts to obtain one, they finally realized it was just made of stainless steel.

Often, these ‘big secrets’ are shockingly simple. That’s why core areas typically have no surveillance. In even more sensitive zones, electronic devices aren’t allowed within a certain distance. A certain car model from a previous life wasn’t even permitted near restricted zones.

Loud rumbling echoed as Yang Bo watched the silver-white door buckle further. The voices of the mutants outside grew louder, and a smile appeared on Yang Bo’s face as he summoned his own mecha, now disguised as a smaller 13th-generation model.

The differences between generations of mecha mostly lie in the Central AI System, control logic, reaction time, shielding, anti-interference capabilities, energy systems, defense systems, and other optimizations.

For example, Yang Bo’s Generation-3 mecha could only operate on the ground.

More advanced mechas could operate in the air, underwater, and even in space. They could also transform into something resembling a Drone Fighter.

The silver-white door was smashed open with a bang, flying inward. The mutants outside cheered in unison.

In the next moment, many mutants rushed into the passage, and before those at the front could react, the ones at the back saw a blinding light.

Their bodies shuddered as they quickly turned to flee. That light was all too familiar—it was the glow of lasers.

So, in an instant, the mutants who had been recklessly charging forward a moment ago were reduced to piles of corpses. Especially the biological mecha mutants who entered first—they were blown to pieces like fireworks.

Fire Energy Mastery +8!

Fire Energy Mastery +8!

Mecha Piloting +16!

Forging +16!

……………………

A flood of information surged through Yang Bo’s mind. What grabbed his attention was Fire Energy Mastery.

Laughing loudly, Yang Bo quickly inspected each mecha, ensuring they all followed his lead.

A terrifying scene unfolded. Yang Bo’s mecha took the lead like a shepherd with over a hundred advanced mechas trailing behind. These mechas had their laser cannons in automatic attack mode and were armed with over a thousand mini hydrogen bombs and shockwave bombs. Anyone who saw them would tremble with fear.

They plowed a trail like a war train across the grassland. Mutants who barely registered the disturbance were immediately blown to pieces by lasers from several mechas, even up to ten at a time.

“Looks like entering the Underground World this way makes me basically invincible?” Yang Bo watched the scene, itching to take these mechas into the Underground World for a massacre.

However, Yang Bo wasn’t with the military. He didn’t hate mutants that much. His main goal was to level up his skills. Killing more mutants wouldn’t help, as they rarely dropped rare superpowers.

As Yang Bo sped across the grasslands with his mechas, those aboard the warship were left completely astonished.

The female officer even rubbed her forehead in disbelief. What on Earth was going on with these mechas? Were they under mutant control? That shouldn’t be possible. At most, mutants could disassemble mechas, not power them up like this.

The female officer tried to take control of the mechas’ authorizations but to no avail. Each mecha had its own control rights, which were designed for remote control in the game. The control rights were managed by the military.

The female officer quickly reported the situation, hoping the military would make a decision soon. If worst comes to worst, they might have to destroy them.

Yang Bo, being sharp as ever, knew they’d notice sooner or later. So, after leaving the base, he used a Jetpack to travel quickly. The Jetpack is a standard kit for mechas, primarily for short-range maneuvers in combat.

By the time the military’s orders arrived, Yang Bo had already entered the Underground World through the nearest entrance with his mecha.

Another group of mutants encountered Yang Bo in the Underground World, and they were immediately scattered.

Mutants shouted in shock as human mechas stormed the Underground World, and not just any mechas, but countless advanced ones.

This news spread rapidly, prompting many mutant tribes to tighten their defenses and send out scouts. If they spotted any advanced mechas, they were to report back immediately.

Iron Bull stood in disbelief, staring at the advanced mecha in front of him, drooling uncontrollably.

Yang Bo had reached Iron Bull via the underground passage. Of course, Iron Bull had been brought here, as the cave he was in was a dead end. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been trapped by a group of mutants.
