Chapter 214: Four-Generation Mecha (Added for Alliance Leader Wuxie Meifan Nao) (Fourth Update)

Ilithas ignored Nide’s surprise and watched Yokun control the damaged mecha to retreat and rendezvous with his subordinates.

He spoke coldly.

“Captain Yokun, you have lost. I’ll give you one more chance. Take your men and withdraw immediately, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Yokun gritted his teeth at Ilithas’s words, but still shouted.

“We’re withdrawing!”

When Nuova and the others saw Yokun and his men retreat, they immediately controlled their mechas and fled.

At this moment, Nide asked, very puzzled.

“Captain, why didn’t you kill that guy?”

“A little impatience can spoil a great plan. Now is not the time to go to war with the Federation. You must understand one thing: there is not only one Federation in this world, but also the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom. If we start fighting with the Federation now, wouldn’t that just let them reap the benefits?”

Ilithas analyzed calmly.

“Captain is right, I was reckless.”

Nide replied respectfully.

“Go!”

Ilithas then led his subordinates towards the mining base.

Soon after, Ilithas stormed into the mecha’s reserve storage. They were met with neatly stacked blocks of refined iron, like pyramids, in very considerable quantities. And in the innermost part, there were also blocks of Vibranium used to make Third Generation Mechas.

“So many ores, we’re rich!”

Nide and the others shouted excitedly.

“Move them!”

Ilithas gave the order in an excellent mood.

—

The next morning.

Su Ming returned to Royal Court Academy and walked towards the arena. When he returned to school, he specifically asked Rhein. Rhein told him that Mia was taking them to the training ground today for training.

Before long, Su Ming arrived at the training ground.

He saw Rhein and the others, along with Mia, from a distance. At this moment, Rhein and the others were looking at the students in the training ground, waiting for their turn.

As for Mia, she was looking down, constantly scrolling on her wristband.

Su Ming walked up to Mia and asked curiously.

“Teacher, what are you scrolling through?”

Mia sighed and said.

“What else can I scroll through? Of course, it’s the latest news. The Federation has lost another mining planet in the transit zone. The personnel responsible for guarding it fled back in disarray yesterday.”

Hearing this, Su Ming frowned slightly and said.

“Isn’t this gradually encroaching on the Federation, slowly closing in on us?”

“That’s right. Now, the people below are practically cursing, but do you have a solution? The Federation is like a pile of loose sand right now, without a core leader, completely powerless to resist.”

Mia replied with a hint of helplessness.

“What about the Council Speaker? Why isn’t the Council Speaker coming out to take charge of the overall situation?”

Su Ming asked, very puzzled.

“The Council Speaker? If he were here? Would there be so many problems? It’s precisely because he’s not here that City Lord Garkles can’t control the other two cities and sixteen districts. They can’t unite at all, which is why they’re so passive!”

“So that’s how it is.”

“Alright, I won’t bother you with this. This isn’t something you should be concerned about. Do you want to try out a mecha? Though I feel like you don’t really need to.”

Mia picked up the small bottle of wine next to her, took a sip, and said lazily.

“I won’t try it. Teacher, can I ask you something?”

Su Ming said with a smile.

“It’s definitely nothing good, but go ahead and ask!”

“Teacher, I’d like to ask, what’s the current situation regarding Four-Generation Mecha?”

“Pfft~”

Mia spat out a mouthful of wine directly.

“What’s wrong?”

“You brat, you’re actually thinking about Four-Generation Mecha. Were you impressed by the Four-Generation Mecha in the league?”

“Yes.”

“Let me tell you, what you saw in the league was just generated by virtual data. It might seem like there are many Four-Generation Mecha, but in reality, the number of Four-Generation Mecha is extremely rare. You can’t just buy them whenever you want. I don’t know if you’ve touched a Four-Generation Mecha in the virtual world, but I have to tell you, that’s just a simulation. Even if it’s claimed to be 100% accurate, there’s still a difference from the real thing!”

“Also, don’t get carried away just because you achieved something, kid. After all, in the virtual world, you won’t die, so the mental pressure is very small. But in the real world, people’s emotions fluctuate violently during war, and some even become uncontrollably fearful when facing death, leading to panic.”

Mia said with a chuckle.

“Teacher, your guidance is correct.”

Su Ming strongly agreed with Mia’s words. Only those who have truly experienced war and death can understand how accurate she was.

“Alright, well, for the sake of you giving the teacher so much prize money. I’ll reveal the price and situation of the Four-Generation Mecha. This is all top secret!”

“Thank you, Teacher.”

“First of all, there aren’t many manufacturers in the entire Federation that can produce Four-Generation Mecha, only five, and three of them are official. Moreover, due to the extremely complex technology and the very precious ore required, the amount mined each year is also very limited. This leads to an extremely rare production of Four-Generation Mecha, and the price is sky-high.”

“How expensive?”

Su Ming asked calmly.

“A hundred billion federal currency to start!”

Mia directly held up a finger and said seriously.

After hearing the price, Su Ming was immediately silenced. He knew it would be very expensive, but he didn’t expect to have underestimated it.

“Does it feel very expensive?”

“Yes.”

“Then let me tell you another thing: the biggest obstacle to buying a Four-Generation Mecha is not the price, but the fact that you can’t buy it at all! Because there are so many people who want them, and many of those who need Four-Generation Mecha are military officers. They will try every possible way to secure a purchase slot, so you simply can’t buy one without connections.”

Mia said to Su Ming with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Su Ming sighed slightly, then said.

“Teacher, is the Third Generation Mecha, Cyan Wing, easy to buy?”

“The Cyan Wing Mecha is not easy to buy either; it’s a popular model. Not only is the premium very severe, but the orders are also backed up.”

Mia said to Su Ming.

“Teacher, are there any channels to purchase a Cyan Wing Mecha? Although the school’s mall allows purchases, the hard conditions are too difficult.”

Su Ming asked with some worry.

“Of course there are, but I have to ask. How about you wait for my news?”

“Okay!”

“Alright, anything else?”

“No.”

“Then I’ll leave this to you. When you have time, you can guide Rhein and the others on how to practice. I’m off work!”

Mia stretched, ready to slip away and be a hands-off manager.

“Okay!”

Su Ming didn’t say anything either.

Mia then hummed a little tune and walked out, but before she could take a few steps, she saw Vice Principal Fuleike walking towards her with his hands behind his back.

“Damn it!”

Mia looked as if she had seen a ghost and quickly hid to the side.

Vice Principal Fuleike hadn’t been seen at the training ground for hundreds of years, and now he suddenly appeared. Was he here to cause trouble for her?

But Mia was also a little confused. She hadn’t done anything out of line recently. Could it be that someone had reported her scheme to get student prize money?

The more Mia thought about it, the more flustered she became!
