Chapter 126: Gundam and Chainsaw
by xennovel“Hey Mr. Chad, want to ride my bicycle?”
In the early morning, Gerri put on her favorite outfit, with a scarf she loved, as she confidently mounted her bicycle. Turning her head, she imitated the cultured way of speaking to invite Chad.
“Of course, my beautiful Gerri.”
Chad laughed as he sat sideways on the back seat, holding onto Gerri.
“Hold on tight, we’re off!”
Gerri pedaled hard, and after a few adjustments to find her balance, she gradually steadied and rode out of the alley.
“Ring, ring!”
The clear sound of the mechanical bell was like the most melodious bird song of spring, drawing the attention of many passersby.
The eyes of the crowd seemed to burn, dispersing the chill of early spring.
Gerri blushed as she enjoyed the surprised and admiring gazes of the passersby, as she rode through familiar streets.
The wind brushed past her ears like a free fawn roaming through the forest!
……
“You know what? This is the taste of freedom! We don’t have to be confined to this place like our ancestors!”
Ivonne, a former member of the Awakening Association, looked at her hometown reduced to ruins but smiled, speaking to her classmates.
Ivonne’s house was demolished.
The Goddess of Music ordered a wall erected in Vis Els City, dividing it into inner and outer city parts.
Ivonne’s home was in the “outer city” and was unfortunately demolished.
Although there was compensation with a new house in the inner city, her old house was where she was born and raised, holding sentimental value.
So, Ivonne’s classmates came to help with the move and also wanted to comfort her.
The result was that Ivonne’s reaction surprised everyone.
“Do you want to travel across the Azaea Continent with the caravan and spread the Goddess’s light?”
Ivonne, smiling, snapped her fingers and summoned an Internet interface, opening the Music Temple.
“With this, I believe the Goddess’s light will spread across Azaea and even more worlds!”
At this moment, Ivonne smiled brightly, her eyes clearly reflecting the longing of an idealist for freedom.
However, her classmates exchanged puzzled glances.
Amid their surprised expressions, the ruins in front of them quickly sank into the ground under the power of magic, followed by strange buildings springing up.
This was the power of the magicians of Quever!
This place will become the largest trading city in the southeast of the Azaea Continent!
It is said that Quever’s caravan has already set off.
At this moment, countless citizens of Vis Els witnessed this magic miracle!
The Goddess of Music, Afnora, also stood atop the towering Magic Tower, gazing at the distant magic miracle, but her vision went even further.
She knew that a miracle surpassing the magic miracle was about to unfold here!
When establishing this city, she considered the starting point of the journey and the end of destruction.
But she never thought that the land-based Godly Kingdom established to seek balance in power in the map’s gap would one day become a commercial hub.
“Where are you?”
Thinking of the man with strange and eccentric ideas, she couldn’t help but make a voice call.
“Dofi Sub-Dimension.”
“Dofi? Why can’t I find you?”
“I’m in the Kurds Desert.”
When Yu Sheng’an said this, Afnora distinctly heard dense gunshots.
“What are you doing there?”
“Experimenting with some things.”
“Can I come over and see?”
“Of course, come on!”
Afnora suppressed the jubilation in her heart and sent a Divine Projection to the Dofi Sub-Dimension.
The Kurds Desert is located in the far north of the Dofi Sub-Dimension, and it’s almost a lifeless zone, where even the most starvation-resistant beasts disdain.
When Afnora arrived, the scene before her left her somewhat baffled.
In the center of the desert stood an immense Earth Puppet over ten feet tall.
This wasn’t the main point.
The focus was the Earth Puppet, evidently metalized with earth magic, its surface gleaming with a metallic sheen, and its form exuding a mechanical vibe.
Moreover, it was equipped with numerous giant firearms.
No, they couldn’t be called firearms.
They were actually square boxes, and if she hadn’t seen the advanced magic bullets flying out with her own eyes, she would never have guessed they were firearms.
“Hello, beautiful lady, want to come in and try it out?”
A door opened on the chest of the giant puppet, revealing a spacious cockpit inside, where the Yu Sheng’an she was looking for was sitting.
As Yu Sheng’an spoke, Earth Elements gathered beside him, forming a highly sci-fi space chair.
“Is this another one of your new inventions? What’s it called?”
Afnora, accustomed to Yu Sheng’an’s whimsical ideas, flew inside and sat down beside him, asking curiously while taking in her surroundings.
Sitting in the cockpit, she felt as if she were sitting up high, with only the puppet’s surface visible through the transparency.
This scene made her sense the use of Light Element magic.
And where are the Magic Seals inscribed?
“Gundam!”
“A new type of magical puppet?”
“No, it’s just a toy.”
Yu Sheng’an regretfully shook his head.
By now, the cabin door closed, and Yu Sheng’an controlled the so-called “Gundam,” basically an enlarged Earth Puppet, racing through the desert.
The desert was filled with all sorts of targets.
There were monster corpses and metal plates, etc.
Yu Sheng’an controlled the Gundam, firing at the targets.
“The firepower seems pretty impressive, so why call it a toy?”
“The impressive part is the external weapons! This thing’s manufacturing cost is too high, and the magic consumption is extensive. On the battlefield, it’s just a big target, easy for the enemy to dismantle.”
Yu Sheng’an shook his head.
The mech idea popped up when he designed the Fourth Calamity.
But back then, the mechs were essentially just enlarged Earth Puppets, purely superficial.
So he quickly dismissed the idea.
Yet, after stealing industrial fruits from the Velia Sub-Dimension, the idea resurfaced.
He bypassed the complex industrial design.
Using the Earth Puppet instead, as its accommodating nature conveniently stored many external weapons.
Unfortunately, the idea sounded good, but when he eventually created all sorts of matching weapons, he realized the idea was still too fanciful.
The enlarged Earth Puppet caused magic consumption to skyrocket.
Despite the imposing look of the mech covered in external attachments.
In reality, a Grand Warrior could easily approach and dismantle it.
In close combat with a Grand Warrior, its large size would become its biggest hindrance.
In short, its high cost and poor practicality.
With these resources, it’s better to invest in drones.
With his Divine Spark of Contracts connecting, they aren’t afraid of enemy “electronic suppression.”
However, although impractical in battle, using the mech as a toy satisfies some of those adolescent fantasies from Blue Star.
“Really? That’s quite a pity.”
“Yes!” Yu Sheng’an nodded, added: “But while the mech is useless, these external weapons are well-suited for the Giants to use!”
Hearing that, Afnora instinctively looked outside the cabin.
The mech’s hands were holding a strangely shaped giant two-handed sword.
The sword’s handle had a ball-shaped magic steam engine, with a semicircular tip, and a jagged chain on the blade.
Accompanied by Yu Sheng’an’s control, the magic steam engine roared, billowing white smoke as the chain spun madly on the blade.
A giant sea monster’s corpse splattered blood under the giant sword.
This scene made Afnora’s pupils dilate.
She could already imagine the scene of Abyss Giants wielding these giant swords, howling and slaughtering their kin!
“Relying solely on the Life-sharing Contract is too slow. I plan to send a batch of these weapons over for some catalysis. Do you want them for your Undead Demon Legion?” Yu Sheng’an asked.
“Sure!” Afnora nodded.
Afnora’s Undead Demon Legion wasn’t large.
Even Phobos, who already had the virtual Divine Spark of Contracts, hadn’t formed a massive Undead Demon Legion.
Only a few were contracted as a backup force.
Obviously, this power entirely depended on Yu Sheng’an, and although they had allied, Afnora and Phobos didn’t plan to invest too many resources into it.
After all, if they ever break ties, Yu Sheng’an could disband their Undead Demon Legion anytime, making a large investment in Source Essence very unwise.
Although the likelihood of breaking relations was small, both are gods who have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years, and the rationality deep in their hearts persists.
Now, Afnora watched as Yu Sheng’an easily armed his Undead Demon Legion with industrial power, and as she envied, a thought suddenly struck her, making her face tense.
“By the way, won’t the half production line you traded to the Goddess of Wisdom push her to develop in this direction? If her Wisdom Legion equips on a large scale, it would pose a significant threat to us.”
“Certainly, once she sees these weapons.” Yu Sheng’an replied.
“Then what should we do?” Afnora was stunned.
“Don’t worry, she won’t reach our level for a while.” Yu Sheng’an paused and then smiled: “Honestly, I’m looking forward to her developing in this direction!”
“Why?” Afnora asked, surprised.
“Competing in a field she is not proficient in, with me, is suicidal isn’t it? If she truly goes down this path, this military buildup competition will drag her into the abyss.”
“But… she holds the Wisdom Divine Spark!”
“Holding the Wisdom Divine Spark doesn’t mean possessing wisdom.”
“Is that what the Prophecy Divine Spark told you?”
“No, it’s my guess.”
