Chapter 429: Chapter 204: The Battle Plan for the Class (2nd Update)
These new students from the Photon Department had undergone Lange’s uniform training, learning about Mecha in routine battle modes.
In the mouth of “Random Lone Wolf,” the so-called “Expert,” his tactics could boost them straight to the skies. How far is the sky?
Roughly as high as silver 2 stars, that’s for sure!
This made the bunch of rookie students from other majors extremely excited. Thus, one generous person paid over 2000 Star Coins to successfully become Lange’s apprentice and begin their Mecha training.
In Lange’s opinion, these people were all materials that could be molded.
Outside the Mecha Club, familiar club members chuckled as they watched the team training room, which was Lange’s exclusive workshop, known among the Mecha Club as “the old scammer under the sun.”
However, this was also an extra source of income for their club, and no one bothered Lange, especially since he had the backing of one of the Seven Martial Generals, “Red Cat.”
Watching Sid’s Virtual Cabin close, Lange swiftly opened a light screen; on it, Sid’s first-person view had already appeared.
“Lonewolf Teaching 01”–that was the character Sid displayed upon entering.
“Don’t worry, everyone. This is a bound account’s mobile training cabin. In the Mecha Club, you can enjoy privileges that aren’t available outside.”
Seeing the remaining four nod, a smug smile flashed across Lange’s face. He was too good at swindling–so much so that he almost believed his own words.
“Now you can all directly watch our classmate Sid as he goes through a ranking match to prove himself.”
What Lange was actually thinking was that the account already had over a thousand losses, but no one knew since he had blocked it out; the rank matches would probably be against some of the absolute worst.
Using his tactics, “The Five Magical Mechas” paired with “Five Advanced Skills.”
The Five Magical Mechas were “Molten Furnace Cannon,” “Cannon King,” “Hook Lock,” “Ivan,” “Blue Eagle”–cold parts in the fifth generation of Mechas due to their relatively low-end equipment and quirky attack methods, not widely recognized.
But for a great scammer who had already run classes for more than seven terms, how could anyone believe him without some genuine skill?
For example, the “Molten Furnace Cannon” Mecha that Sid mainly operated–Lange had just used his God-like slyness to play the opponent to death.
Today’s lesson was merely to make these rookie newbies realize their own awesomeness. Of course, Lange wasn’t going to kindly tell these cash cows that his own “Lonewolf Teaching 1-10,” almost hitting zero in bronze 1 star, paired them with opponents more clueless than they could imagine.
Now, at Dingchuan Academy, he could recite the names of several worst performers.
As soon as Sid entered and opted for ranked combat, a match was instantly successful, of course, a 1v1.
“Shura”?
That name looked pretty cool, but the opponent hadn’t hidden their record–1 win, 1 tie, 2 losses.
Well, well, well, looks like someone’s preparing to be ranked among the worst.
Lange, spitting while he spoke, explained, “See? This is a newbie who hasn’t completed his placement matches yet. For you newcomers, finding such an opponent must be a stroke of fate.”
“Though his name looks sinister, those who know a thing or two see our ID and take a wide berth. But it doesn’t matter. Because up next, our hero–classmate Sid–will commence the victory prelude for you four! Pay attention to the fighting style of Sid now, the Chance Turret Method.”
The “Molten Furnace Cannon” Mecha was a freak of engineering.
It was utterly a pure maintenance vehicle, other than four mechanical arms and two tracks, there was nothing that seemed related to a Mecha.
It was a post-apocalyptic wasteland map, the setting of a city in ruins after warfare between two nations.
The opening had a time limit of 1 minute, and rushing from one end of the map to the other would take about 2 additional minutes.
For the “Molten Furnace Cannon,” that was enough.
First, this rumbling engineering vehicle headed for the second floor of a building ruin, its four rear thrusters suddenly blasting, propelling the heavy vehicle to the second floor.
Then something was extracted from the onboard parts store, and it started to rapidly assemble beneath the four mechanical arms.
In just twenty seconds, the form of a cannon had taken shape.
“Although it’s in the Photon Department, I suggest that Sid should consider choosing the Mechanical Department. The speed of assembling the cannon has improved compared to before, not bad, as we can see that the number 1 Autonomous Artillery has already taken shape.”
Lange’s explanation made the other four newcomers nod in agreement, Sid had indeed crafted a fine cannon!
“He chose a very professional spot for the cannon, hidden by the second-floor wall. The enemy won’t be able to see it, but the thin wall will break open the moment the Autonomous Artillery fires.”
“Brother Wolf is professional!”
The four of them hurriedly flattered him, which scratched an itch in Lange’s heart.
Under the watchful eyes of the group, Sid drove the “Molten Furnace Cannon” and quickly constructed three more cannon placements, under the bridge, inside the station waiting room, and among the high ground rubble.
By then, the engineering vehicle’s parts store had emptied out, leaving only a lone Electric Melt Cannon. Constrained by the parts store’s capacity, this 65mm caliber cannon was only suitable for close-quarters combat.
“The opponent should appear soon, and next up is baiting them with oneself. We can see Sid is very talented; he can’t wait to rush to the back of the venue where there’s a blind spot that also serves to cut off the opponent’s retreat. Up to now, my rating for Sid would be–perfect!”
“I hope that next, you’ll perform as I’ve taught you, perfectly demonstrating what you’ve learned. Then, on the Battle Net, both the internal and external networks, there will certainly be a place for you!”
The four of them nodded again like pecking chickens.
Mu Fan drove the rugged and heavy Wild Boar Mecha charging forward.
From now on, his radar showed no reaction, and the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, with nothing but the sound of his own running.
The fire clouds hung in the sky, and the mecha ran over the ruins, a scene straight out of an apocalypse.
Soon, the brown mecha reached the area where the “Molten Furnace Cannon” had set up the Autonomous Artillery, exciting the five onlookers immensely.
“Brother Wolf, will we see Sid reaching the pinnacle of his life next?”
“Absolutely, this perceptive young man–Lem, the Cannon King is up next for you!”
“Ha, okay! I’ll definitely not let down Brother Wolf’s teaching.”
A golden-haired youth nodded excitedly.
On the Battle Net, Mu Fan had already noticed this relatively open area, and the map showed that it was close to the opponent’s landing spot.
But… where were they?
Suddenly, a loud engine noise erupted, and Mu Fan controlled the mecha to sharply turn, just in time to see that “Molten Furnace Cannon” burst out of concealment.
Mu Fan was stunned…
Wasn’t this an SCV? It was exactly like the space engineering vehicles he had seen on Planet 131, except that the tool pod on its back was twice as large and there was an additional cannon barrel with a flashing red light at the muzzle.
His palm brushed over the control board, and the “Wild Boar” flashed abruptly.
A pool of superheated molten iron hit where he had just been standing, and the ground bubbled and corroded from the high temperature.
Sid, excited by the sight of his “prey” now ensnared, shouted from the cockpit, “Fire, my cannons!” Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
Outside, Lange excitedly punched his hand, “Now for the thrilling part!”
