Chapter 276: Chapter 52 The Trouble-Makers Are Here (Congratulations Sect Leader CanXue Wuheng)
(Congratulations to Sect Leader “Endless Traces of the Remnant Snow” for reaching 50k fan value, and here is the second bonus update in appreciation!)
“Such a bumpkin! Hahaha, you crack me up, Mu Fan.”
The voice of Black piped up with a mocking tone.
However, Mu Fan didn’t bother to respond to Black as he was captivated by the unusual appearances of the two individuals before him.
Their excessively prominent foreheads, purple eyes, and the wrinkles on their faces clearly indicated that they were not human.
The two were dressed alike, with a strange emblem embroidered on the collar and cuffs of their garments.
Seeing Mu Fan staring at them as if they were strange animals, the two became somewhat annoyed.
“Such a country bumpkin who’s never seen the world!”
Mu Fan ignored the two and focused on the fiery red mecha standing behind them.
It was about five meters tall and had already attracted a crowd. His interest was piqued, particularly by its unique right-hand weapon.
“Hmph, how boring.”
Seeing no reaction from Mu Fan, the two lost interest and walked away.
“Mu Fan, I’ve dug up some info on those two from the Hinchlo Business Alliance. They’re caretakers associated with the Pell Chamber of Commerce, members of the Purple Beard Clan. I’m curious, how can you remain so calm when someone mocks you like that?”

“I’m here to see the mechas!”
Mu Fan’s brief response shut Black up. Right now, the mechas filling the exhibition hall were what truly captivated him.
And besides, they were too ugly for him to want to look at them any longer.
He didn’t voice this thought out loud.
“Good day, sir, this is a product of the Hodge Mecha Company, an A-grade enterprise from the Hinchlo Business Alliance. It was designed by our senior mecha designer, Leonard. This mecha’s ground performance exceeds those of its class by 5 percent, with an engine from the latest fifth-generation technology of Hinchlo. Moreover, the price is very reasonable–only 1.5 million Star Coins to take it home!”
As Mu Fan was examining the red, relatively flat mecha, a girl dressed in a white blouse and black skirt walked over and introduced the mecha to him in a friendly and elegant tone.
“Are you also from Hinchlo? You look different from those two earlier.” Mu Fan’s words made the girl burst into laughter.
“No, sir, I’m a student at Green Leaf Academy. I’m doing a part-time job during the holidays,” the girl said with a smile and a nod.
Understanding the situation, Mu Fan replied apologetically, “I’ll keep looking.”
“Of course, feel free to explore. The Mecha Exhibition lasts for a month and features many different models and types of mechas. The Hodge Mecha Company, where I work, specializes in insect biomimetic mechas with excellent dynamic characteristics, which might be slightly higher in price compared to those from the Federation,” the girl explained politely, smiling at Mu Fan.
Mu Fan nodded. With what the girl had told him, he had a good idea of what to expect from the exhibition–it sounded quite comprehensive!
After thanking the girl, Mu Fan continued along the path before him.
The glass curtain above the hall diffused light evenly downward, bright but not glaring, while the booths inside the exhibition were spaced out like a chessboard, with the rows and columns set out cleanly.
“Bartlett Mecha Company returns with three of the latest B-grade mechas!”
“Samuel Heavy Industries’ strongest adventure-class mecha–Crab K71!”
…
Mecha bodies stood in various poses in front of each booth, dazzling Mu Fan’s eyes.
There was a Volcano mecha almost completely covered in clusters of rocket tubes, a Leopard Mecha fitted with high-speed bounce devices and plasma cutters. Mu Fan also saw a bulky, heavy shield fighter mecha that stood over ten meters tall.
An exhibitor explained that this mecha was equipped with individual jet engines and recycling devices in its fists, known as “Heavy Punch Missile”!
With fists of iron two meters in diameter, a single punch would almost certainly incapacitate the mechanical master inside any opposing mecha.
Another mecha had arms that could transform into drills and instantly switch to hydraulic impact drills at the wrist.
Nicknamed the “Piling Machine”!
If it weren’t for Mu Fan’s discretely extravagant attire, which couldn’t conceal its luxury, the vendors would have likely kicked him out by now.
Having stood at the front and listened until he was finished, Mu Fan didn’t even blink before walking away.
Every company was trying their best to promote and introduce the strengths of their mechas to every guest. But a guest like Mu Fan was truly hard to deal with.
The exhibition hall was divided into 50 display areas, with several companies in each area.
Mu Fan hadn’t even finished exploring Display Area 36 yet.
All the mechas in this area came from the Hinchlo Business Alliance. It wasn’t that their mechas were bad, in fact, they appeared more refined than those from the Federation, but Mu Fan was not interested in mechas that overly emphasized firepower systems or were too cumbersome.
There were several streamlined mechas for air and ground combat, but Mu Fan still passed on them.
All of them were shooting enhancement type mechas, and they incorporated a degree of biomimicry.
They didn’t fit his aesthetic!
Overwhelmed by the variety, Mu Fan gradually walked out of Display Area 36. Ahead was Display Area 37, where a silver mecha caught the attention of many onlookers.
“Arabella Weapons Company, it’s a military arms enterprise, it seems this is their first mecha model of the year, but it looks very sophisticated.”
“Yeah, the power system of this mecha is outstanding. Have you seen it? The introduction says it uses a Turbo Helium Core Engine co-developed by Arabella and Dawn Power Laboratory. It has a 20% instantaneous power increase over the current sixth-generation standard engine. That means the mecha has better responsiveness under extreme conditions, and the increase in power output also helps with maneuverability and evasion.”
“What’s this mecha called?”
“Wind Speed Competitor,” said a product manager in a suit, smiling at the inquirer.
Arabella, headquartered on Purple Jade Star, has laboratories in the Four Major Star Regions and is part of the Birch Group.
At the same time, Zhang Yuanren is Arabella’s heir!
Even with Mu Fan’s discerning eyes, which had seen the Shura, he had to admit that the exterior of this mecha was truly beautiful, with a silver-white mecha body and capabilities for both short and long-range combat.
“Everyone, please take a look at the combat testing video of our mecha.” The product manager smiled and raised his hand towards the side, where a holographic image of the Wind Speed Competitor fighting appeared.
This silver-white mecha, wielding a splendid beam sword, was facing a Federation Sword and Shield Mecha.
When the Wind Speed Competitor began to sprint, the Sword and Shield Mecha’s shoulder cannon shots were easily dodged, and several bursts of speed allowed the mecha to narrowly skim past the rockets, truly making the viewers sweat.
In the end, when it closed to within 10 meters, it performed a long-distance horizontal slash with the beam sword, and a light purple light screen emerged from the blade, piercing the opponent’s body, rendering it paralyzed, and in an instant, the beam sword penetrated through.
Destroyed!
The holographic light screen revealed that the beam sword was outfitted with a unique Michael Particle Interference System.
“What a cool mecha!! How much is it, I want to reserve one!”
“Sir, the Wind Speed Competitor is currently in an exhibition reservation state, and the first batch of prototype mechas also has great collectible significance. Right now, you can pre-order this sharp and stylish mecha for only 22 million Star Coins.”
“Can I register some information first, I need to apply for the funds from my dad.”
“Of course, my wise and insightful young master.”
“Can I take a photo to send to my boyfriend? He’s right next door; I’ll ask him to come over.”
“Certainly, beautiful lady!”
The man in the suit handled the responses with ease.
Just then, a frowning Mu Fan suddenly spoke, “May I ask if this mecha comes standard with the Michael Particle Beam Sword? The introduction states that the engine has a 20% instant power increase, but the output power of the beam sword directly affects the weapon’s power. I feel this mecha, which touts high mobility as its selling point, should not be equipped with this weapon. At the moment of piercing the Sword and Shield Mecha, the color of the beam sword clearly turned red, suggesting a sharp decrease in power rather than an increase! Could I see the detailed data for this mecha’s engine?”
Mu Fan’s voice was neither loud nor soft, but it clearly reached the ears of those present.
The crowd that had been jostling to register fell silent. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
This guy seems to make some sense!
Meanwhile, the product manager’s expression turned cold, as they encountered someone trying to disrupt the exhibition on the first day.
A discreet hand gesture went up behind him, and the staff behind him immediately went to call their lead test mechanical master.
PS: I recommend a science fiction story, “The Great Movie World Lottery.” It’s really exciting to read, and the author updates with great dedication. Everyone should check it out!
