Chapter 9: Mech Armor

  "Connect."

  The moment the order was given, a new signal fluctuation appeared in Qin Tianyi's spiritual sense.

  "Respected Supreme Commander Qin Tianji, I am 'Moonlight', the main control system of 'Moonlight'. It is my honor to serve you."

  "Battleship self-test!"

  "Self-test program running... Beep, self-test results: Battleship living quarters 100% damaged, combat zone 99.03% damaged, energy supply zone 98.25% damaged, training area 95.21% loss, daily maintenance area 62.11% loss, main control area 11.21% loss... Beep beep! Insufficient energy, energy supply zone energy missing, please provide energy source!"

  Qin Tianyi looked at the 3D holographic image projected by the Moonlight No. 1's optical brain, and shook his head with a mix of expected and unexpected emotions.

  This battleship, with a damage rate of over 85%, can be completely discarded into the space junkyard. Although some areas are still running, they are barely holding on.

  Took a look at the energy readings.

  A planet-class battleship with an energy slot of up to 30 million points, and it's only left with 71 points. The optical brain of this warship is still running, which is a miracle.

  "Display daily maintenance area, all available maintenance robots are enabled, use all resources that can be used to repair the battleship, start all energy detection robots, find energy, start all energy collection robots, collect energy, after the resource reserve reaches the standard, establish a signal station, transmit signals southward, and the signal intensity covers 500 kilometers..."

  Qin Tianji issued one hundred and thirty-four orders in one breath.

  At this moment, the only thing that can make him feel fortunate is that the energy supply area still has a damage degree of 1.75%, retaining an energy probe robot and three energy collection robots, otherwise, this warship may not have any chance to restart again.

  As he watched the warship's gates open in many places, maintenance robots began to busily extinguish fires and repair damaged areas, Qin Tianyi felt a little regret.

  "In three years, this warship probably can't even start normally, let alone fly back into the blue sky. The three energy-collecting robots... can only collect 30 points of energy per day, and that's on the premise that there are energy mines."

  Giving up on the idea of starting this warship, Qin Tianyi's figure had already arrived below the warship.

  Having the highest authority, boarding a warship is unimpeded.

  "moonlight", show all medicines.

  Entering the warship, Qin Tianyi's first consideration was the matter of medicine.

  Originally, to cure Zilingyun well, collecting herbs, decocting medicinal paste, taking orally and applying externally would require a lot of effort. However, if there are enough medicines preserved on this warship, other treatment plans can be adopted to cure him, which is absolutely easy.

  "Drip! The medicine inventory list shows..."

  Qin Tianyi looked at it for a moment, and soon selected a large number of medicines from it to treat his injuries. Some of these medicines had an extremely significant effect on recovering muscle strains, physical strength, and cell activity. With the help of these medicines, his physical fitness could still make a breakthrough in a short period of time.

  "Rejuvenation agent, BSM nutrient solution, A-31 type healing liquid, all are available. After going back, Qi Lingyun will be able to recover in a short period of time."

  After scanning the list of items, Qin Tianyi felt a sense of relief in his heart.

  Zi Lingyun can recover, Yunlai Sword Sect will have a top-notch swordsman.

  In less than an hour, Qin Tianyi had already prepared all the medicines and packed them up.

  "Next up is the armory!"

  The world is full of danger and no one knows what will happen next second, he must have enough power to ensure his life safety.

  Like in Yunlai Jianzong, life and death were completely under the control of his opponent's experience. He absolutely did not want to, nor would he allow himself to repeat it a second time.

  "Inspect the arsenal!"

  Soon, Qin Tianyi had arrived at the armory which was severely damaged.

  "Ding! Weapon area damage rate 99.03%, all metals with a hardness of 85 or lower are damaged, remaining... A-02 type mech one unit, damage rate 15.28%, B-09 type mech two units, damage rates are 71.35% and 61.22%."

  "71% and 61% damage rate... When the mech's damage rate reaches 40%, various malfunctions will occur, endangering the pilot's life. At over 60%, it won't be able to start up, and at 80% damage, it can already be considered scrap metal, not even worth repairing. These two mechs still have repair value, unfortunately, given my current situation and conditions, there is no possibility of repairing them..."

  Qin Tianji made an analysis in his mind, and his gaze had already shifted to the last A-02 type mech.

  "A-02 type mech, height 12.8m, weight 31.5 tons, made of Shia alloy with a hardness of 92, propulsion force 58820KG, acceleration 1.15G, detection radius 10500m, fixed equipment: head-mounted laser eye (damaged), left hand: 500MM Raijin cannon (damaged), right hand equipment: a formal battle sword forged from Thunder alloy with a hardness of 114..."

  At a glance, information about this silver A-02 type mech had already emerged in Qin Tianyi's mind.

  "All remote weapons are damaged, and the engine has also been damaged. It is impossible to replenish energy, which means that every bit of energy used will be less... However, the warship does not have any reserve energy for its mecha, even if the energy system is intact, there is not enough energy to use..."

  Qin Tianyi said that the hatch of the mech's cockpit had already opened, and with a swift motion, he had entered the cockpit.

  "Unit Two, connect the soul chip of this mech."

  "Beep! Command received! A-02 chip connection established."

  As soon as he connected with the mech's soul chip, Qin Tianyi immediately had a sense of fusion with the mech.

  The advanced realm of mech knights - Human-Machine Unity.

  Why can only high-ranking spiritual practitioners become mech knights? It's because of the existence of soul connections.

  Operating a mech requires too much of an individual's mental reaction ability and ability to handle situations. If one's mental endurance is not above high level, it is impossible to control a mech at all.

  It's like a person who originally could only run 500 meters in 100 seconds, but suddenly his speed increases to 500 meters in 10 seconds. Once he starts running, nine out of ten times, he will directly crash into the buildings along the way.

  "Alright."

  Sitting in the driver's cabin, Qin Tianyi's heart was also a little excited.

  Mech Suit!

  Even if he was an elite student at Xinghua University, he had never actually driven one before. The ones used in school were just training mechs, and there was no comparison to be made with the real deal that was meant for actual warfare.

  "Energy is used up a little bit at a time... it's still good to save."

  Forcing down the idea of driving this mech to soar in the blue sky, Qin Tianyi had already selected the mech's weapon storage warehouse, clearing out the Thunder God Cannon's ammunition and putting away the medicine he had organized.

  The Thunder God Cannon has been completely destroyed, and these shells have also lost their value.

  "It's time for me to leave after spending a lot of time in the mountain that never sets."

  With a thought, Qin Tianyi's gaze fell on the command interface of "Moonlight": "Open the gates of the weapon zone."

  As the command was given, a severe damage to the weapon zone above, a hissing and crackling sound came, in a flash of electricity and flames, a difficult opening revealed a 20-meter-wide circular exit.

  "A-02, ignite thrusters!"

  Qin Tianyi's brain was connected to the control center of the mecha.

  However, just as he was about to disconnect from "Moonlight" and fully control the mech, his gaze suddenly fell on a blood-red mark in the weapon database.

  "What is this?"

  "Ding! This is S-class confidential material, host has highest authority, can view, whether to view?"

  "Top Secret S-Class Information!"

  Qin Tianji's heart skipped a beat.

  S-class!

  Throughout the Federation, only high-ranking officials who have reached the rank of Upper General and hold important positions can access this information. These high-ranking officials are at least commanders of a space fleet.

  "Look it up!"

  "Drip! One of the resupply weapons carried by 'Moonlight', the latest product developed by the Federal Institute of Advanced Technology, X-01 Power Armor!"

  "X-type mech? The highest level of mechs is S-level, which can only be driven by human giants at the spiritual master level. Next are A-level, B-level, C-level, and D-level mechs. Level does not equal model number. Although there may be differences in data between the 10th and 11th models, the difference between them will not be too great. However, the difference between levels is a matter of quality. Under the same knight standard, two B-10 type mechs may defeat a B-11 type mech, but even ten B-11 type mechs cannot match one A-01 type mech! X-level mech?! Has the highest research institute made a breakthrough in mech research that transcends eras?"

  At the same time as being shocked in his heart, Qin Tianyi had already hastily given the order: "Retrieve the X-01 type mech!"

  "The host has the highest authority and can extract."

  Orders were given, and soon a small opening appeared in the transportation channel inside the warship. A square alloy box with a diameter of only 20 centimeters floated out from that small opening.

  Seeing this box, Qin Tianyi was slightly stunned.

  "What is this?"

  "X-01 Power Armor."

  "Mech?"

  Qin Tianyi looked at the alloy box with a diameter of only twenty centimeters in some dismay. When did mechs become so small and delicate? Was this a toy for kids or something?

  "X-01 Power Armor specs."

  "X-01 Mech, the latest product of the Federal Top Research Institute, is made from a meteorite captured during the Starry Sky Storm. It is a **Bio-Metal**, which can be injected into the human body. Spiritual masters can inject it and activate it with spiritual power, driven by energy and spirit. This mech has uniqueness, currently only existing in simulated data, specific values to be determined."

  "Liquid Bio-Metal? Spiritual Masters Can Inject?"

  Qin Tianyi muttered these two sentences in his mouth.

  The highest research institute actually developed such a mecha?

  Mechanized knights, despite having the power to dominate local wars on the battlefield, are only under the premise of driving a mechanized suit. Once they leave the mechanized suit, mechanized knights at most are just ordinary people who are slightly stronger, and most weapons can easily kill them.

  Soul Master, in nature and Mech Knight are similar, the only difference is that Mech Knights drive mechs, while Soul Masters can control a warship alone.

  But this still cannot change the fact that their bodies are fragile.

  Most spiritual masters did not fall on the battlefield, but were assassinated by enemy countries with assassins after the war.

  Once the X-01 mech suit is available on the market, it can be injected into a spiritual master's body, making them inseparable. At that time, who else would be able to assassinate a spiritual master?

  "No wonder it's named X-class, this mech is far more advanced than S-class mechs, and may even change the global situation. However, the materials used to forge this mech were obtained by chance, making it one-of-a-kind, and impossible to mass-produce, otherwise..."

  With a calm and focused mind, Qin Tianyi didn't hesitate to put away this alloy box.

  In this world, his spirit was subjected to extreme oppression, and even extending it outside his body was impossible. Casting a spiritual secret technique at close range would instantly drain his spirit, but from another perspective, in such an environment, his spirit was also constantly being tempered.

  Taking the earth as a furnace, constantly tempering, becoming more and more pure.

  If it were in the federal world, he had never imagined that he could break through to the spiritual master realm in his lifetime, but now...

  In the midst of it, he had already touched the spiritual master's barrier.

  "Loaded with spoils, now return!"

  After collecting almost all the useful things on the warship, Qin Tianyi gave the order to let the Moonlight self-repair, and then boarded the mech, his body soared into the sky, rushing straight up to the blue sky!

  He had just charged into the void for less than a hundred meters when the massive body of his mech began to slowly descend, and at the same time, a warning sound rang out in the spiritual world.

  "Beep beep! Gravity anomaly detected, gravity anomaly detected, using level three propulsion."

  "Activate third gear!"

  Orders were given, and two flames suddenly shot out from the thrusters behind the mecha!

  "Boom!"

  The mecha, which had been declining in trend, suddenly surged in speed, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound, and flew straight to the outskirts of the Sun-never-setting Mountains.

  Speed!

  As swift as a thunderbolt!

  "This is the true power of technology! Su Yuhuan!? Zhou Chong!? Qingxuan!? How about an 8th-level swordsman, how about a 9th-level swordsman? And what about a great swordsman?! I'll be right back, drive my mech, and kill into your Xuanling Sect, destroy your Xuanling Sect!"

  Qin Tianji's mind was turbulent, gazing at the void where the airflow and white clouds were brutally torn apart by the mechanical armor, for a moment, his heart seemed to surge with a heroic passion of ten thousand meters.

  "Xuanling Sect, your doomsday has arrived!"

  Qin Tianji let out a long whistle from his mouth, and the direction of the mecha's flight suddenly changed.

  "Not going back to Yunlai Sword Sect for now, target, Xuanling Sect!"
