12 A New Battle Mecha (1/2)

Milan, Mei Duo, and Ni Ya were currently chatting outside the forward command center’s main building. Milan’s eyes were sharp, and with just a glance, she could see Tian Xing Jian walking out in a dejected manner. She immediately ran over to his side, grabbing the commendation order to see what it was.

The initial expression of playfulness seemingly dissolved into resentment after a moment before she finally could not help but scream, “What is this? Fatty, you still have a year and a half imprisonment term! No way, I must tell teacher about this!”

Fatty’s eyes brightened up. That’s right, didn’t he have to stay at the research lab for a total of 2 years? The two of them were filled with purpose as they ran. One for the sake of continuing her tyrannical abuse, while the other for the sake of protecting his own life. Only Mei Duo and Ni Ya were left behind, looking at each other in dismay.

Boswell was truly furious! The forward command department would usually dilly-dally for matters regarding the engineering aspects, wasting so much of his precious time. Right now, they had actually used a piece of paper to transfer his very own fatty, whom he spent lots of effort in grooming, away. How would he allow for this to happen so easily?!

In the heart of this old man, Fatty could be considered as half his disciple. Even though with what Fatty learned, he could not reach the most advanced and sophisticated research, his learning ability and comprehension capabilities as well as his creativity were truly the best amongst all the students the old man had seen. Furthermore, with his extremely formidable hands-on ability, he had cleared a big obstacle for the old man, thus allowing him to put all his attention into research. Boswell believed that in a few years of time, Fatty would definitely be able to stand on the apex of being a Battle Mecha and weaponry professional.

Furthermore, this cute fatty was so obedient. As long as the old man said “execution by rifle”, the fatty would keep quiet out of fear and carry out his orders without any other purposes.

“How can I ever find such a good fatty again in the future?”

The old man’s protective disposition completely exploded!

Furiously, Boswell barged all the way into Bernadotte’s office. After that, the entire building could hear the roaring of that old man! This continued for an entire hour before Bernadotte, who was at the end of his patience, finally called his guards to bring the maniacally shouting old man out.

Boswell was truly seething with anger!

“Fatty, come with me!” The old man had already lost his reasoning!

Returning to the underground research lab, the old man immediately used the central computer to investigate the identity of the fatty. He used his personal power to forcibly change his information while gritted his teeth as he said, “What Federation classified information is this? Fatty! I’ll now recruit you into Jialipalan military institute, immediately becoming a specially-recruited research student who is currently being coached by me and also promoted to the vice-commander for my research lab! Everything in the research lab, be it the Battle Mecha or weaponry, can be taken by you, and every single confidential clause on documents will be uselessto you from now on!”

“Protecting these equipments will be your very first job! The confidential regulations on the science and technology of Federation allows you to decide when you want to retreat on the battlefield!”

After completely changing the fatty’s identity, the old man added, “Right now, I’ll prepare a list of equipment for you to choose! With the identity of being a research student of our institute, you only have to serve the army for a year. After that, you can choose to resume your studies back at our institute. By then, I’ll bring you back once again!”

After that, the old man went back to his own research lab, leaving behind an entire room of dumbstruck people.

Fatty had truly loved this cute old man too much. According to what he said, he could choose any of the equipment in this research lab!

Milan pulled the fatty all the way into her research lab, pointing out to the Battle Mecha that had been manufactured by the biological double attribute metal as she said, “Damned fatty, I’ll give this to you,” Milan’s eyes brightened up as she thought of how chaotic the world would become with it.

Yet, the fatty actually shook his head! Milan could feel herself being driven mad. How could there be such a fatty who could not tell good from bad?!

After seeing how Milan’s expression did not feel right, Fatty immediately explained, “This Battle Mecha is definitely something that I wanted. However, it is simply too beautiful; it will only paint the Battle Mecha as a target should it be brought into battle.”

Milan tilted her head for a moment, thinking about what Fatty said before agreeing with his thinking.

“That’s right. The first prototype has been manufactured according to the needs of a rich private mecha, and thus it has a truly different entrypoint as the other standardized Battle Mechas. If that’s the case, which of the other Battle Mechas are you planning to choose? The other ones are truly too weak when compared to this.”

Fatty had already planned in advance. With a wretched smile, he said, “Isn’t there enough materials prepared in the materials storeroom for a second Battle Mecha prototype? I still have a month of time before I need to report to my division. I’ll just take this opportunity and the materials to build my own Battle Mecha. Hei hei.”

Thereafter, in the following month, Fatty had truly mobilized everyone in the research lab to manufacture and develop the new Battle Mecha. Each of the components had been based on the blueprints designed by Fatty and given to everyone to complete. As for the most important components and the final assembly of the entire mecha, that would be left for Fatty to complete.

Tian Xing Jian closed himself up in Milan’s private research lab. Nobody knew of what the final Battle Mecha would look like. It was just that everyone could frequently hear the fatty and Milan arguing within the lab, and very often Milan would come out of the room ashen-face before slamming the door. She would scold, “This idiot wastes so much materials!”

The manufacturing of the Battle Mecha had become a guessing game for everyone in the research lab. Everyone was looking forward to the day the mecha was fully completed. As they were quite familiar with the components and indicators for the first prototype mecha, they were quite certain that this new mecha would not be weaker than the first prototype according to the data provided. The biggest problem would be what the initial shape of Battle Mecha would look like.

Finally, Fatty announced that the Battle Mecha had been fully developed. It was time for the secret to be revealed.

Seeing how Fatty’s eyes were glowing, everyone was truly looking forward to it. However, these expectations turned into disappointment and sighs when the curtain fell.

Leray Federation’s 2nd generation Battle Mecha Beast Mk.III had the characteristics as follows: a height of 6 meters and was a single-operated Battle Mecha. It was developed in New Age Year 2030 and had served the army for 20 years. But in reality, after 10 years of being used in the army, it had already started to be washed out. Right now, the only reason why the army still had several Beast Battle Mecha left was for the purpose of transporting heavy goods. 30 years later, the standardized Battle Mecha had already developed to the 7th generation, creating a gap that was akin to an old granny’s car and a flying car. They were so completely different in level that no comparisons could be done.
