Chapter 598: Chapter 373 Galaxy Transport, Mission Accomplished
(Congratulations to the newly promoted Hall Master “Bored Aaah!” This chapter is a merger of two.)
The colossal head of the Flowing Light Heavenly Eagle turned to the left.
“Blue Capital Military Group, the other party has already provided detailed information, do you wish to refute?”
Countless cameras were aimed at Donald Natello, waiting for this young owner’s response.
Hearing Gregory’s words, Donald Natello’s face lost its smile and showed a serious expression.
He looked up at the enormous mecha in front of him, then turned to the flying vehicle carrying the cameras and bowed seriously, “I sincerely apologize to everyone, this truly was a failure of my judgement. Rocco was under my Blue Capital Military Group’s name when he registered for the competition, showing excellent performance during our internal assessment. I had taken a liking to his talent, not knowing he would turn out to be a traitor from Loki Heavy Industry. I am utterly shocked by such a coincidence!”
By this time, Donald Natello had already shown a face full of sorrow, his voice even more filled with heaviness.
“All responsibility lies with me personally, and I am willing to negotiate an apology and compensation with Loki Heavy Industry. The Blue Capital Military Group is a super-large company with a history of over fifty years in military development. We have always emphasized being a responsible company and do not shirk or shift blame for the mistakes we have made. I apologize again sincerely to Loki Heavy Industry!”
A ninety-degree bow appeared in front of the cameras.
Hearing these heartfelt words, many people spontaneously started clapping.
This was indeed the demeanor expected of a leader of a super-large group. They had expected a scene of prevarication from Blue Capital Military Group, which never occurred. Instead, such an emotionally earnest scene was witnessed.
Thus, the audience generously gave their applause.
However, no one noticed that Nuonuo’s frail body was almost trembling…
It was an impulse of anger she could no longer suppress!
How could one be so shameless? Before his speech, the meaningful look Donald Natello had directed at her showed no intent of apology!
“Shameless… to the extreme!” Nuonuo’s teeth were tightly clenched, her lips trembling as she spat out these four words, then raised her palm and pointed at Donald Natello, addressing the Flowing Light Heavenly Eagle:
“For such despicable behavior, does the competition only demand an apology without any other punishment? How can this be allowed!”
The girl’s anguished voice echoed through the sky.
“I’m very sorry, the essence of the Mecha Grand Tournament is to decide the strongest, not to exclude people with various rules. The competition doesn’t have specific provisions against such actions, so we cannot support your request.” Gregory’s voice was as sonorous and forceful as ever; from start to finish, all his actions were under the careful scrutiny of countless people, without any bias.
This is the Skyhawk Martial God who sticks to rules, not concerning right or wrong.
“Really, I am very sorry. I am willing to discuss compensation matters with Loki Heavy Industry about this matter. Donald Natello admits his poor judgment, please understand.” Donald Natello placed one hand over his chest, bowing slightly.
“Hypocritical face, who needs your charity!” Nuonuo’s voice was full of indescribable disgust.
“You might have some misunderstandings about Donald…” Donald Natello’s face showed a mysterious regret.
The audience had now divided into two roughly equal groups, one supporting Nuonuo and the other influenced by Donald Natello’s grand demeanor.
“This special judging session is over, and the results are as follows: The ownership of Mech Ge-R is granted to Loki Heavy Industry for them to deal with it. The judgment is final. Both parties, please return to your places; any further disturbances will result in being expelled from the arena!”
Gregory didn’t provide the opportunity for further disputes; after clarifying the matter, the massive mecha palm swung downward, the heavy airflow even causing the floating vehicle carrying Sandy to shake.
Then this giant mecha spread its wings behind its back, and soared sharply into the Sky Mother Ship.
Having finished, there was no need for him to linger here.
The communicators on both flying vehicles turned off simultaneously; the verdict had been declared, and the competition would no longer give either party another chance to speak.
The media had faithfully recorded this scene. In this round of judging, the impartial and unbiased Chief Judge Gregory, and his Mech Flowing Light Heavenly Eagle, were destined to be highlighted.
It reflected the fairness of the event. The composure of the young leader of the Blue Capital Military Group was also praiseworthy, as was the unique mecha from Loki Heavy Industry.
Although there were no thrilling intense conflicts, it nevertheless made for a good report.
People seemed to have already overlooked that silent black mecha below…
A sneer tugged at the corner of his mouth.
A coincidence, huh…
Mu Fan picked up the communicator, “Nuonuo.”
“My lord,” the girl’s voice came through, filled with deep fatigue.
“Pay it no mind.” Mu Fan uttered just four words, yet they had an unexpectedly profound effect.
“Okay!”
Above the aircraft, the girl watched the diminishing figure and nodded heavily.
The black Extreme Special Soldier bowed again, its arm lifting the other Extreme Special Soldier R that had lost its cockpit.
Now, it had finally returned to its proper name, but its Mechanical Master–Rodrick–had been branded a traitor and had ultimately met his end without a trace left behind.
“…Please save my family…”
These were Rodrick’s last words, and also the first time Mu Fan had heard his voice.
“Black, check Rodrick’s information. If there are details about his family, help me locate them.”
“When you mentioned it just now, I had already successfully obtained it. The last location of his wife and children was inside an apartment on Blue Capital Star, seven kilometers away from their regular residence. The location is room 703, and there are no surveillance cameras in the hallway. After investigating these past few days, I’ve compiled some clips for you, mostly from the front of the apartment.”
After Black finished speaking, a video started playing, and Mu Fan looked up at the screen.
It showed a secluded, dilapidated apartment, nearly uninhabited. If it weren’t for the two men in black standing at the entrance, one might assume it was an old building waiting to be demolished.
The footage switched quickly, only showing the men in black coming and going, with an occasional truck stopping at the apartment front, offloading batches of living supplies.
The footage ended.
“The surveillance video runs on a seven-day cycle. The mother and child haven’t stepped out of there for seven consecutive days. The truck, after investigation, belongs to a distribution depot of the Golden Crystal Logistics Company, a subsidiary of the Lan Du Military Group.”
“By the way, these video materials were merely simply deleted in the regional surveillance room. I’ve recovered them directly from the base files of the disk.”
Suddenly, Mu Fan pressed the pause button and the image locked. With a gesture of his fingers, he zoomed in on one of the men in black; the bulge at the side of his waist was enlarged.
It was the shape of a firearm…
Mu Fan emotionlessly turned off the video; there was no need to watch further. If it wasn’t coercion, under normal circumstances, there would be no reason for them not to appear.
Reflecting on the last words Rodrick had said to him before dying, Mu Fan murmured softly to himself, “This last wish of yours, I will do my utmost.”
“Black, perform 24-hour surveillance, record all suspicious activities, monitor the movements of the men in black, and report any incidents immediately.”
“Yes.”
The black Extreme Special Soldier silently walked, dragging a long trail in the cracked earth with the Mecha Body in its hand.
People only saw the reversed ownership situation of this Mecha Body, yet no one knew about the grim end of Loki Heavy Industry’s Gemini project.
They didn’t even know that Loki Heavy Industry, as a contender, had participated in such highly intense battles without any logistics support.
Such is reality, the bloody reality of the victors and the powerful.
The heavy metal door at the base of the cliff opened, and the black Mecha along with the blue wreckage disappeared through the doorway.
The audience, always waiting for the Extreme Special Soldier to make some change, couldn’t help but sigh in disappointment.
Why at the end, did you not speak another word?
We were drawn here by your dominance and fervor, but your final performance was utterly disheartening.
Little did they know, Mu Fan was utterly indifferent to the opinions of others.
The sound of metal striking the ground echoed in the vast corridor, as Mu Fan placed the now scrapped Extreme Special Soldier R onto the railcar and then went alone into the repair room.
In the deserted repair room, five robots were quietly waiting.
As the black Mecha Body stepped onto the maintenance platform, all the equipment in the room began to operate automatically as if coming to life.
A moment later.
“Mu Fan, the Extreme Special Soldier Meteor 3’s engine has suffered damage. With our current conditions, we aren’t equipped to repair it, and the materials of this mecha are too special.”
Black gave Mu Fan some disappointing news.
Mu Fan’s fingers, dancing on the console, paused for a moment, “Has the engine power decreased?”
“The normal power hasn’t decreased, but it’s impossible to enter an overcharged state before a thorough repair.”
The most direct impact finally manifested!
In the previous battle, Mu Fan had exhausted the time he could stay in the overcharged state.
This meant that, in the upcoming battles, Mu Fan could only rely on the second-tier Undead state of the Extreme Special Soldier…
“Okay.”
Mu Fan rose from the pilot seat and calmly said, “After the Lan Du Military Group’s other two mechas finish battling, send me the video footage and battle results.”
Holding his injured arm, Mu Fan walked out of the Extreme Special Soldier.
Bai’s Special Medicine, Molten Magma Fruit–
These were his supplies.
A medium-sized spacecraft with black and white paint flew in from outer space, bearing the bold letters “Galaxy Transport” sprayed in three different languages.
The spacecraft, upon passing the lookout station, almost didn’t pause as it maneuvered through the dense military warships.
This was a special delivery from Galaxy Transport, whose delivery fee, without exaggeration, was enough to buy a luxury Floating Car in limited edition.
Because this entire spaceship served just one piece of cargo!
The cargo hold, after undergoing more than seven layers of reinforced protection and twelve layers of passwords, three of which required the personal operation of the recipient.
Galaxy Transport, the largest express delivery company within the Federation with deep connections in both military and political circles, made it nearly impossible for other similar enterprises to compete.
Transportation between various planets within the Federation was practically an unobstructed green light.
Not long after, the spaceship directly hovered above a certain area’s airspace.
The two pilots inside the cockpit looked down at the empty building below with slight confusion.
No one?
“Hank, call the target customer.”
“Calling now,” the copilot replied.
In front of them, a number was being dialed.
In the Land of Bright Star, the clock had pointed towards 17:00, and three-quarters of the competition had been completed.
In the repair room, Mu Fan leaned against the cold metal wall, shirtless, his left shoulder repeatedly bursting the gruesome wound.
His left hand held a glowing red fruit that he just popped into his mouth, and upon biting down, the scalding energy juice exploded in his mouth.
Just then, the crisp sound of Sky Communication rang out, which Nuonuo had just delivered to him.
Hmm?
He chose to answer with a puzzled look.
“Is this Mr. Mu Fan?”
“Yes, what is it?”
“We’re from Galaxy Transport. We have a special delivery for you that requires your personal signature. We’ve already arrived at the destination, which the address shows as Loki Heavy Industry Blue Capital Star branch. Are you there?” the tone inside the Sky Communication was very polite.
Mu Fan frowned. When did he order something?
“I’m not there.”
“Then please tell us your location, and we will deliver it there.”
“Land of Bright Star, a dedicated area of the Mecha Martial Contest, Maintenance Room 47. Can you come in here?” Mu Fan sent his location with a vague thought in mind.
“We can. Galaxy Transport, mission accomplished! Anywhere within the Federation is within our delivery range. Since we’ve entered the atmosphere, the spaceship will reach your location by tomorrow morning at 8 AM.”
“Okay.”
Sky Communication was disconnected, and Mu Fan froze for a moment, muttering to himself, “Could it be… the weapon Nuonuo mentioned?”
“Mu Fan, the Lan Du Military Group’s competition has ended, both mechas have successfully advanced,” suddenly, Black’s voice also rang in his ears.
The state of trancelike stupor instantly disappeared, and Mu Fan’s eyes revealed a chilling gaze, a cold arc forming at his mouth.
“Send me that AA-rated mecha’s data and battle video.”
“As you command!”
Sky Communication vibrated, as the data directly appeared before Mu Fan’s eyes.
Mecha Name: [Earth Battle Fortress]
Height: 22.6m
Weight: 48.6t (without external weapons attached)
Rating: AA
Company: Lan Du Military Group
Mechanical Master: Ogden (a member of the Lan Du Military Group Mechanical Masters, ace Mechanical Master, has served for seven years at the Lan Du Military Group.)
Immediately following was a video, which Mu Fan watched unblinkingly. The large orange-yellow Mecha caught his eye, flames leaping in his gaze. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
