As Gu Ya was groggily asleep, the ancient mecha suddenly trembled all over, the strong and extremely high-frequency vibrations jolting him awake.
Subconsciously, Gu Ya raised his eyes and was stunned. He quickly rushed out of the armor's gaps and purchased a heavy transport mecha from the system store he had prepared.
The heavy mecha appeared beside the ancient mecha. Before its aura could even activate, it was falling freely downwards like a projectile!
"My heavens!"
Gu Ya exclaimed. With no time to examine what astonished him, his footsteps propelled him with fiery speed, chasing after the heavy transport mecha.
In the sky, the ancient mecha, carrying a giant pink energy ball twice its size, was flying with difficulty.
Yuyin had long since vanished ahead.
Gu Ya completed a series of finishing moves in the air, retracting the ancient mecha and the transport mecha, and then re-summoning the heavy transport mecha.
After a busy period, he finally merged the two mechas to fly side-by-side, jointly carrying the large energy sphere above.
Two and a half hours had passed, and the new mecha still hadn't hatched.
What exactly was inside this thing...
The heavy transport mecha stood tall at fifty-six meters, appearing like a giant next to the ancient mecha. However, the giant energy sphere on their shoulders was even more massive, with Gu Ya estimating its diameter to be a full seventy meters.
Furthermore, the mecha system roughly calculated its weight at eight thousand tons.
This eighty-thousand-ton weight also included the internal live ammunition. The new mecha was designed to carry three thousand tons of ammunition, capable of holding tens of thousands of heavy missiles, as well as thousands of beam guns, with its firepower output no less than that of Fengwu No. 1.
Just as Gu Ya was excitedly anticipating the birth of the new mecha, a super-large white dot suddenly appeared on his radar.
Roughly estimated, it was a seventy-meter-tall heavy mecha rapidly approaching.
Gu Ya magnified the camera. A mecha with a large red armor coating appeared about ten kilometers behind him.
"Unbound Red, that's it."
Xianxia City had suffered, and Hong Yan must have also received a support order. She was catching up now.
Unbound Red sent a communication request. Gu Ya clicked it open, and just as he was anticipating hearing Hong Yan's cold greeting, Qiao Weiwei's voice came through: "Ao Ying Third Team's Qiao Weiwei is dispatched to support Xianxia City. Have you seen any Ao Ying Third Team members?"
Her voice sounded normal, and she referred to herself as Ao Ying Third Team, piloting Hong Yan's exclusive mecha.
It seemed Qiao Weiwei had been reprimanded by Hong Yan, given a slap and then a sweet date, urging her to return to the team quickly.
However, this sweet date was quite significant!
With Qiao Weiwei returning to the team and piloting the more powerful Unbound Red, Gu Ya was naturally happy.
Fengwu No. 1, as a devastating mecha, had its power greatly reduced without Fengwu No. 2 as its ammunition depot. That's why Hong Yan had given her exclusive mecha to her.
It was good. Now there were two devastating weapons on the team, and the new mecha was no weaker than Unbound Red. Gu Ya finally felt a sense of security.
The treatment for fear of insufficient firepower was to equip more powerful weapons!
However, for Qiao Weiwei, who was arrogant and talked back to him, Gu Ya decided to toy with her a bit.
Taking out the voice changer, Gu Ya arrogantly and rudely said, "I've seen her. Gu Ya complained to me all the way. He said that in his team, there was originally a 'tsundere' girl who could kill thousands. Not only did she look down on her teammates, but she hadn't called Gu Ya 'Captain' since joining the team! Tell me, Gu Ya actually tolerated such a person for so long, alas."
"Gu Ya... did he really say that?" Qiao Weiwei sounded a little panicked.
Gu Ya said playfully, "Yes! He also said he would absolutely not let her rejoin the team, not even in her dreams! Hahahaha!" Gu Ya couldn't keep it up any longer, threw away the voice changer, and laughed heartily with pride.
Qiao Weiwei was clearly angry. After a long pause, she said, "Gu... Captain, Qiao Weiwei is rejoining the team..."
"Mm," Gu Ya replied coldly, his face hardening slightly. "If you dare again next time, don't come back. I don't want a team member like you."
"Understood..." Qiao Weiwei replied in a low voice.
It seemed Hong Yan's admonishment had been very effective, directly extinguishing Qiao Weiwei's arrogant and rebellious spirit.
"I know Rui Zi's death affected you greatly. Not just you, but all of us will miss her and remember the sacrifice she made for Xianxia. Therefore, carry Rui Zi's legacy and fight bravely."
"Yes!"
The new mecha was almost fully assembled. Gu Ya calculated the time and decided to land and debug the new mecha first.
When the ancient mecha and the heavy transport mecha landed, Unbound Red also slowly descended not far behind them.
The two mechas carefully and steadily placed the giant pink energy sphere on the ground. Gu Ya stood beneath the massive energy sphere, looking up.
Qiao Weiwei walked over and silently stood beside Gu Ya.
"What is this new type of weapon?" Qiao Weiwei asked, somewhat confused.
"You'll know in a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, a piercing "buzz!" sound came from the pink energy sphere. The ancient mecha extended its hands into the sphere, steadily supporting the behemoth.
As the pink light gradually dissipated, Qiao Weiwei's mouth grew wider and wider: "This! This is!"
Gu Ya smiled faintly.
When the pink energy sphere completely vanished, an incredibly tall mecha with pinkish-brown armor coating appeared before them.
The towering, smooth shoulder magazine compartments, the bulky back ammunition bay, and a huge beam sniper cannon diagonally slung at its waist all indicated a heavy firepower output mecha with considerable power.
"I call her... Khorne!" Gu Ya shouted excitedly.
"Huh? This is your new exclusive mecha!?"
"Let's go take a look!"
As Gu Ya and Qiao Weiwei entered the cockpit, the internal environment surprised them both.
In the spacious and bright cockpit, there was no control panel. Instead, there was a straddle-type pilot seat, with four control sticks resembling motorcycle handlebars arranged on either side of the pilot seat.
Each control stick had an ergonomic grip, and on the grip were numerous small buttons for operation.
When Gu Ya straddled the pilot seat, a comfortable and snug feeling from between his legs instantly ignited his desire to try it out.
He truly wanted to pilot it through the sky right now!
Opening the mecha control system, he input the new mecha name, and the brand new system began to debug step-by-step.
A holographic panoramic display suddenly appeared in front of him, with two miniature mecha holographic stereoscopic images slowly rotating around the sides. One miniature mecha stereoscopic image could display in real-time whether the mecha's various parts were intact. The other stereoscopic image showed the mecha's current movements, assisting the pilot in better understanding the mecha's combat posture.
In the panoramic screen in front, a ring of mecha status parameter tables surrounded the edges, while the center displayed an incredibly clear picture.
In the center of the picture was a faint blue reticle, which was the mecha's target acquisition system.
After a quick simulation with [Advanced Driving], Gu Ya's expression became somewhat uncertain.
Qiao Weiwei watched with constant surprise and joy. Her Fengwu No. 1 was definitely not as advanced as this mecha!
When she saw Gu Ya's somewhat troubled expression, she asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Gu Ya raised his head, frowning slightly, but his gaze was not directed at Qiao Weiwei's fair, round face. Instead, his gaze was unfocused, clearly deep in thought.
"Speak up, Gu Ya!" Qiao Weiwei pushed Gu Ya impatiently. She immediately realized her失态 and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Captain."
After a few seconds, Gu Ya's look made Qiao Weiwei blush slightly before he curled his lips into a self-deprecating smile and said belatedly, "What have I created..."
