Chapter 268: Unexpected Surprise (Additional chapter for Alliance Master Feng Zhi Ye) (Third update)

Mia, on the other hand, swung her beam saber, cutting its damaged body into pieces with a few swift slashes.

Eventually, the Aberrant Brain Beast’s life activity dropped to fifty percent, and it lost its ability to move.

At this point, Mia, controlling the Azure Wing Mecha, retracted her beam saber and unholstered a mechanical laser gun from her waist. She adjusted the gun’s muzzle and pulled the trigger, aiming at the Kirami’s corpse.

Sizzle~

A scattered beam, like a scan, covered the entire body of the III Elite Kilami · Aberrant Brain Beast.

Its black cellular body dissolved like a bubble, finally turning into a dry, shriveled substance, completely losing all activity.

Just then, Captain Wang Sheng’s steady voice echoed through Mia and the others’ public communication channel.

“Ms. Mia, please report your situation. Have you been attacked?”

“We were attacked by a Type III Kirami, but it’s nothing serious; it’s already been dealt with.”

Mia calmly replied.

“Good. Please be careful and keep your communication open.”

Wang Sheng, Captain ended the communication after giving his instructions.

“Teacher, you’re truly amazing! That III Elite Kilami was chopped up by you in no time!”

Anqi and the others said with admiration.

“Alright, stop flattering me. If it weren’t for your coordinated combat, it wouldn’t have been so easy to kill. It would have taken some effort, especially since this mecha’s performance is really poor.”

Mia couldn’t help but shake her head as she finished speaking.

“Huh? The Azure Wing Mecha is poor? Teacher, we seriously suspect you’re humblebragging.”

Rhine said with a chuckle.

“Hmph, you guys don’t know anything. I’m too lazy to explain to you. Let’s keep moving forward!”

“Okay!”

“Also, remember this: when you encounter monsters later, just like before, maintain distance and provide support. Don’t foolishly charge in, or I’ll have to get distracted saving you.”

Mia taught them as they advanced.

After all, real combat is the best classroom and can improve students’ skills more effectively.

“Understood!”

Su Ming and the others humbly replied.

As they continued to delve deeper into the city’s inner areas and arrived at a wide street,

The sight that met their eyes stunned Su Ming and the others.

Scattered across the street lay numerous Iron Head, Iron Steed, and other mechas.

The transparent display windows of shops on both sides of the street showcased various models of Type I mechas, and even Type II Iron Guard Mechas could be seen.

“So many mechas!”

Zhang Yi exclaimed in surprise.

“This should be a commercial street specializing in selling mechas, firearms, and weapons.”

Su Ming mused for a moment before speaking.

“Then will there be high-level mechas?”

Rhine asked excitedly.

“Hard to say. Normally, high-level mechas are custom-made; there are rarely any in stock.”

While chatting with Rhine and the others, Su Ming controlled his mecha to move forward and inspect the fallen mechas, checking if anyone had survived.

When he approached a fallen Iron Head Mech, he discovered a hole in its back.

Su Ming frowned slightly and walked towards the other fallen mechas.

He consecutively inspected several mechas, finding that every mecha had a hole in its back.

“How is it? Did you find anything?”

Mia asked Su Ming with a grave expression.

“All these mechas have holes in their backs, looking very much like they were pierced through. The situation isn’t very optimistic.”

Su Ming replied rationally.

Just then, Anqi’s excited shouts suddenly rang out in the communication channel.

“Wow! Look at that building’s exhibition hall!”

Su Ming and the others instinctively turned their heads, looking in the direction Anqi pointed.

Not far away stood a large building, its first floor a massive exhibition hall with walls made of special glass.

Inside the exhibition hall, a Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knight was displayed.

“Gun Knight? No way? Am I seeing this right?”

Elu spoke, astonished.

“Haha, we’re rich!”

Zhang Yi said, overjoyed.

“Don’t get too happy too soon. It might not be a real mecha; it could be a model.”

Su Ming reminded them very calmly.

“That seems right. What company is this building for?”

Zhang Yi, hearing Su Ming’s words, felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him and immediately calmed down.

“It’s the Heavy Strike Club.”

Elu looked up and carefully read the sign on the building’s exterior wall before speaking.

Su Ming was also slightly surprised to hear Elu’s words, not expecting this club to be here.

At this moment, Mia’s eyes flickered as she spoke.

“Let’s go, let’s see if it’s a real mecha or a model! This Heavy Strike Club is very famous in the Federation; we might actually have hit the jackpot.”

“Okay!”

Su Ming nodded without hesitation, agreeing. He now wished more than anyone that this Gun Knight was a real mecha.

Although the Iron Guard Mech he was currently piloting performed well, it was truly insufficient against a Type III Kirami. Su Ming dared not engage in close combat during the previous fight.

Mia led them towards the building.

Soon, they arrived at the building’s entrance, where many Iron Head and Iron Steed mechas lay fallen, and numerous corpses floated in mid-air, all wearing the Heavy Strike Club’s uniforms.

Mia led them directly inside, coming before the Gun Knight.

“I feel like it should be a model. If it were real, they probably would have used it already! But then again, this model is really beautiful, exactly like the real thing.”

Rhine said, stroking his chin as he looked at the mecha before him.

“I think so too.”

Zhang Yi and the others were not optimistic.

However, just then, Mia spoke.

“This is a real mecha.”

“Huh? Teacher, are you sure you’re not mistaken?”

Rhine and the others looked at Mia in disbelief.

“Get lost! A real mecha or a fake one, would I be mistaken?”

Mia cursed in annoyance when Rhine and the others questioned her.

Su Ming’s face showed delight after hearing Mia’s words. He hadn’t expected it to actually be a real mecha.

“No, what’s the background of this Heavy Strike Club? They actually display a real Third Generation Mecha.”

Zhang Yi asked in surprise.

“I’m not sure. I only know that this club is quite famous in Starlight City, and I hear they have properties in many places.”

Rhine thought for a moment, then shook his head and replied.

“Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t. This Heavy Strike Club isn’t some benevolent organization. To put it plainly, this club is what they use to attract and cultivate rogue experts.”

Mia warned them grumpily.

“So that’s how it is.”

Su Ming replied thoughtfully upon hearing this.

“Oh, why do we care so much? Anyway, this is a real mecha, we’re rich!”

Zhang Yi grinned from ear to ear.

Mia sighed and said,

“Don’t just focus on being happy; quickly spread out and look for the key!”

“Okay!”

Su Ming and the others responded in unison.

A moment later, Su Ming and the others regrouped. They had searched all the dead bodies but had not found the Gun Knight’s key.

Moreover, this club was quite large, and a thorough search would take a lot of time, but they simply didn’t have that much time.

“Teacher, what do we do if we can’t find the key?”

Su Ming asked, looking at the Gun Knight before him, feeling a bit unwilling.
