Final Priesthood

Chapter 445: The real pilot, the mecha is me, I am the mecha!

 Xu Mingguang's trip there was in vain, but when he returned home, he had an unexpected surprise.

 “The mecha has been sent back?!”

Lu Yuan got off the hovercar and learned the good news from the butler Victor who came to greet him.

Lu Yuan suddenly became happy and said quickly: "Take me there."

Victor responded, and Lu Feng followed closely behind like a ghost.

Lu Yuan has been waiting for this moment for a long time. The more he becomes proficient in controlling mechas in the game every day, the more he longs to touch a real mecha in reality.

In the process, he even understood why Xu Mingguang was willing to risk serious injury or even death to go into the meteorite full of high temperature and radiation to pick up meteorites, just because Lu Qiyuan promised to give him a look and feel a real first-level meteorite. Mecha.

 In an era when the starry sky had not been opened and the level of technological development was not that advanced, there were still so many people around the world who were crazy about a certain car or a certain model of car.

 Let alone a combat mecha that is countless times more powerful than a car in every aspect.

 Should he say that the Lu family has a strong financial background or that Lu Lingfeng really dotes on his only son.

Victor replied: "Yes, but the master ordered a new one for the young master, and it happened to be delivered today."

 Suddenly, Lu Yuan noticed something else and couldn't help but frown.

After watching it for a while, Lu Yuan gradually discovered that the mecha in front of him seemed to have some differences in appearance details from the Blue Falcon III mecha he was familiar with in his memory.

 A black box with a very high-quality material, not big. There is a blue falcon pattern with minimal lines printed on the surface of the box.

  Accompanied by the not-so-pleasant but unique smell brought about by the special smelting technology, a dark blue humanoid mecha more than six meters tall and with a slender body appeared in front of Lu Yuan.

 After completing the binding, he looked around, thought for a while, and simply released the mecha in the device in the hall.

The cheapest first-level mecha on the market is priced at more than 50 million. If you want to carry out optional modifications to a certain extent according to personal special requirements, the price can easily be doubled.

 Calculating the time, it’s still quite a month away.

ˆ “.”

 “This is what the master meant.”

Victor smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is the latest Blue Falcon Type 4, and its performance is better than Type 3 in all aspects.

 As Xu Mingguang aspired to become an energy mechanic, it was not surprising at all that he would do such a crazy thing.

 The long journey is a bit speechless.

  This is a space device specially used to store mechas.

Now that the old one has not been repaired, Lu Lingfeng bought a new one.

 He had just finished praising Lu Lingfeng in his heart when he started to correct himself.

On the way to check on the mecha, Lu Yuan asked Victor casually.

 Same as the original one, they are all from the Blue Falcon series of first-level mechas.

 He looked at Victor next to him and asked, "Isn't this type three?"

If you don’t really like it, who would be willing to be a dog licker?

  Without any attack enhancement, the weight of a single long sword is 2.5 times that of the normal Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha’s sword.”

“It has been checked in advance and there is no problem. The young master can bind it directly.”

If he remembered correctly, Lu Qiyuan's original mecha cost more than 100 million.

It’s a bit surprising that the journey is far.

Lu Yuan's eyes sparkled with light as he quietly admired this, which was the first combat mecha in his life.

 “Didn’t you say it would take at least a month to repair it?”

 “Ordered a new one.”

The materials and styles of these two mecha long swords obviously don’t match the overall mecha. They don’t even have sword edges. They look dark and like two oversized fire sticks.

Duoling’s space technology has developed to a quite mature level, and space devices are widely used in various fields.

Lu Yuan nodded and followed the process step by step, inputting fingerprint, voice, facial and genetic information into the spatial device in front of him.

Some large vehicles or engineering equipment can be installed with only a small space capsule, which is small and light, making it easy to carry.

 “Boom!”

Lu Yuan pointed to the two one-handed long swords stuck on the back of the mecha and asked Victor.

“Why are the weapons of these four types not quite right? They seem to be inferior to the ones that come with type three?”

Victor said from the side.

 It was just launched last month, and the price is 30% more expensive than the Model 3. "

Lu Yuan opened the box and saw a palm-sized thing like a mobile phone quietly embedded in the box.

Soon Lu Yuan arrived at the hall of the house. Victor didn’t waste any time and had people quickly bring out the things he had prepared.

 The cheap dad is really interested...

 The road is far away and I can’t help but sigh in my heart.

Victor said helplessly: "Because the young master secretly had a duel with someone in private last time, in order to avoid similar things from happening again, he specially customized these two training weapons from the manufacturer.

In order to prevent yourself from getting into trouble again, you simply pulled out all your teeth and claws, right?

  I really have you, Lao Lu.

Fine.

It doesn’t matter if the journey is far.

Judging from Lu Qiyuan's past bad record and his empty words, Lu Lingfeng's ability to achieve this level is already considered good, what more could he ask for.

 Handlessly put the mecha back into the space device, Lu Yuan said hello to Victor, "Thank you father for me."

 Then I couldn't wait to go upstairs and get ready to study the new toy I just got.

Victor smiled and watched Lu Yuan go upstairs, and then silently looked at Lu Feng beside him.

 The latter turned around and left without expression, walking through the halls until he came to a certain room.

Knock lightly on the door and step in quietly.

In the quiet study room, Lu Lingfeng stood with his back to him in front of a bookshelf that was almost connected to the ceiling, slowly wiping an antique long sword inlaid with gems in his hand.

 “Have Qiyuan seen the mecha?”

"yes."

 “How did he react?”

 “I’m very happy to say thank you to you.”

"oh?"

Lu Lingfeng had a look of surprise on his face and said amusedly: "He actually said thank you to me...hehe..."

Lu Feng did not answer, but briefly reported to Lu Lingfeng what happened today.

 “Xu Mingguang”

After hearing this, Lu Lingfeng frowned slightly and said, "Does he want to cause trouble for that boy again?"

 “Not like.”

Lu Feng shook his head, "It's more like he really has something to do with the other party."

"Help me keep an eye on him. I just took care of the Xu family, don't let him cause any trouble again."

 When the storm of this matter is over, I will let him do whatever he wants to do."

 Lu Lingfeng gently placed the cleaned antique sword on the shelf in front of him and said calmly.

“Oh, by the way, let Qi Yuan go out less during this period.

There hasn’t been a terrorist attack in District 15 for many years, but the attack was on the Imperial Hospital.”

Lu Lingfeng's eyes grew colder, "What are these bugs hiding in the dark and believing in evil gods trying to do this time?"

Lu Feng stood quietly, his face unmoved, and the huge room gradually became quiet.

“It should be the Ram alloy material mentioned on the Internet, and it is also the most commonly used manufacturing material for first-level mecha fuselages.”

In the spacious mecha control room, Lu Yuan gently tapped the ankle of the Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha with his hand, and heard a rather thick dull sound.

On the distant home planet, Lu Yuan once shot through the fuselage of the eighth-level god-level mecha "Ice God" of the Far Star Federation with his bare hands.

Relying on memory comparison, he suddenly discovered that although the rigidity of the "Ice God" mecha body was higher than that of the Blue Falcon in front of him, it was still only as strong as the one in front of him.

The body hardness of his Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha is estimated to be higher than the seventh-level Sky-level mecha on the home planet.

 Although the hardness of the fuselage cannot be completely equated with the defense of the mecha.

 But one is at the first level and the other is at the seventh level.

  The gap in forging technology between the two is really a galaxy apart

“The only thing that can fight against mechas is mechas. In Duoling, it would be very difficult for me to tear apart mechas with my bare hands.”

Lu Yuan sighed a few words, then opened the cockpit of the mecha and jumped in.

  “Brain wave detection”

 “Gene testing in progress”

 “Binding successful.”

After another round of tedious and complicated binding operations, I had been lying in the cockpit for a full five or six minutes, and I was finally able to start controlling it.

Although I have been driving mechas on the mecha virtual battle platform for several days before.

 But when I actually tried it, I found that the difference between the game and real-life operation feels is quite big.

When Lu Yuan's mental power was successfully connected to the operating core of the Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha, clumps of translucent liquid began to emerge around the cockpit.

These liquids enveloped Lu Yuan's entire body, making him feel like he was in a water balloon in a weightless environment.

  This is a special fluid prepared specifically for mechas, which can better protect the pilot's relatively fragile body.

 “Forward. Backwards to dash to dodge attacks”

 Having gaming experience, Lu Yuan’s operation is not unfamiliar.

 He tried to control the mecha and performed a series of basic actions, and suddenly discovered a very serious problem.

  —

 His mental strength is not enough!

“It’s been less than ten minutes and my mental energy is almost exhausted. I’m in the game. In the game. Uh.”

Lu Yuan suddenly thought that he could finish the game in as little as five minutes or as quickly as three minutes. After exiting, the status would be reset, the "blue bar" would be full, and he could quickly get into the next battle.

 So much so that he never realized it. A first-level mental power controls a first-level mecha, and the state cannot be maintained for long.

“This is still not a fierce confrontation. If it is a battle, the control time of the resonance skill will be greatly reduced!”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ifies

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and felt a trace of strength all over his body accelerating the recovery of his mental power.

That is the additional effect of the special prepared liquid.

 Prolongs the pilot's control time, helps the recovery of status, and has a healing effect when necessary.

 “Supersonic instant kill!”

Having almost recovered, Lu Yuan controlled the Blue Falcon mecha and dashed through the space with a flash, leaping out tens of meters like a teleport, and then stopped steadily on the ground.

 “Hu-hu-”

 Lu Yuan adjusted his breathing and checked the data feedback.

“3.7 times the speed of sound. Not bad, not much different from the game.”

This move that Lu Yuan privately changed to "Supersonic Instant Kill" is naturally derived from the mecha resonance technique Supersonic Frequency Conversion Step derived from the mental power training method of "Rhythm of Wind".

 The execution of the resonance skill in reality was quite smooth, but the consumption of mental energy also made Lu Yuan frown.

“This move directly consumes nearly half of my mental energy. If this is in a battle, if this move cannot kill the opponent instantly, wouldn’t it mean that I will be slaughtered by others?”

 Lu Yuan’s original idea was to use mechas to fill the gap between his strength recovery, but now he found that controlling mechas in battle was not as easy as he expected.

“With my current mental strength, if I explode with all my strength, my mental strength will probably be completely exhausted within two minutes.

Although because you have also studied "Type Zero", if the energy of one mental core is exhausted, you can still switch to another core.

 But the total combat duration is estimated to be no more than five minutes

 Five minutes later, this mecha will transform from a combat weapon that helps me kill enemies into a huge and cumbersome burden."

Lu Yuan frowned. Five minutes of combat time was really too short.

 He cannot guarantee that all battles can be completed within five minutes.

Furthermore, after five minutes, it will take a long time to recover the mental power.

“We can only practice hard and improve our mental strength as soon as possible”

The cockpit door opened, Lu Yuan stood up from the driver's seat with his eyebrows rubbed, and the concoction slowly slid down his body like mercury.

Level 1 mental power is really too weak

 Thinking back to the last time his mental power reached level one, it seemed like a long time ago.

 I remember that at that time, he was still working hard to break through the martial arts master and transform his will.

Just as he was thinking about Lu Yuan, he was about to jump off the mecha and go to the quiet room next door to meditate and recover.

 But just when he was about to take a step, suddenly

 A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.

"etc."

 Lu Yuan looked at the brand new Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha standing beneath him, and an unprecedented idea came to his mind.

“If the process of using mental power to control the mecha through the core of the mecha was removed, and the loss of the secondary transmission in the middle was eliminated, then the mental power wouldn’t be as insufficient as it is now, right?”

Lu Yuan stood there for a few seconds, then quickly leaned over and gently pressed his palm on the fuselage of the Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha.

 After a moment, he took back his hand and slapped himself **** the forehead.

“It seems possible... I’m so stupid, why didn’t I think of it in the first place!”

As we all know, pilots need to use the core of the mecha to control the mecha.

The pilot first transmits an instruction to the mecha core through mental power, and then the mecha core sends this instruction to the fuselage, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the operation of the mecha.

 It is precisely because of this process that the pilot's reaction to controlling the mecha is delayed, and the concept of "mecha resonance" emerged.

 Lu Yuan’s idea is to directly eliminate the link of mecha core transfer processing.

 For others, this is naturally impossible.

 The core of the mecha is the link between the pilot and the mecha. If the link is gone, there is no need to control the mecha.

  Unless you advance to the Star Lord realm and refine the mecha into a native mecha, there is no need to spread the link.

 Under the Star Lord Realm, no matter how talented a super pilot is, he cannot achieve 100% resonance with mechas.

However.

 The road is far different.

“Just turn the mecha into a part of my body.

 If the arm is directed, where is the need for any intermediate link or secondary transmission? "

As for this, it seems that the [Devour] skill on the [Spirit Devouring. God and Demon Species (Super Mythical)] career panel can do it.

“The innate ability of the Soul Devourers is that in addition to devouring flesh and blood energy, they can also devoure various metal materials.

 The former is to strengthen one's own source of life and advance to a higher level of life.

 The latter is for the purpose of refining the most powerful natal demon weapon belonging to the Soul-Eating Clan! "

Lu Yuan's eyes burst out with a strong light, and a unique temperament circulated around him.

 Demon weapon.

 The demonic soldiers of the Soul Devourers.

 “The Great Fallen Black Sky Ten Prison Demon God Robot.”

 He pronounced the name word by word.

 He ​​has not forgotten that in the final battle in the secret realm of the ancestral land, "Andusha" summoned the terrifying power of the legendary demon robot of the soul-devouring clan.

 It’s just a hasty refining, just a prototype. Oh no, it’s not even a prototype.

"Andusha" devoured the accumulated materials after its arrival, and it was only enough to refine one hand of the "Great Fallen Black Sky Ten Prison Demon God's Robot".

But just such a palm gave Lu Yuan and Yu Wentong the terrifying pressure as if the devil had come in person, covering the sky with one hand, and the doomsday catastrophe was rolling down.

The twisted sun that tears apart the void, the demonic hand that covers the sky

Even thinking about it now, I still can’t help but feel shaken and have lingering fears.

"Swallowing the Blue Falcon mecha whole, and controlling it as my body after fusion, not only can it solve the problem of insufficient mental power, but I can also directly use the body of the mecha to use various abilities of the [Martial Arts Grandmaster]. Means and skills

 In a short period of time, my combat effectiveness can be greatly improved.

  There is no need to practice step by step like others. "

Lu Yuan had great expectations in his heart, and without any delay, he was about to start devouring and merging the Blue Falcon mecha right away.

But before taking action, he paused again.

“It’s better to unlock the profession first and then devour it.

 Otherwise, once the devouring begins, the Blue Falcon mecha will not be able to be used until it is completed, and if you want to unlock pilot-related professions, you will have to delay it again.”

Thinking about it, Lu Yuan didn't care that his mental strength had not fully recovered, jumped directly into the cockpit, and continued to control the mecha.

He controlled the Blue Falcon mecha to practice the Lu family's "Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Style".

The sword technique [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Stream], which was awkward in the human state, suddenly became smoother when used in a mecha.

These are the two one-handed training swords specially made by Lu Lingfeng. They are really bulky and incompatible with the swift and agile style of [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Stream].

But while practicing in Lu Yuan, I felt inexplicably taking advantage of it.

As he continued to practice, he even had an idea in his mind for no reason.

 “It would be nice if there were two axes.”

Once this idea came up, the [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Stream], which originally took the light and agile route, gradually began to evolve in another direction.

 Lu Yuan tried to correct it several times.

 Later I found that forcing corrections only made the movements stiff and blocked, and lost the smoothness before, so I simply let my instinct drive me and practiced according to the feeling of wielding double axes in the eight-armed Shura form.

 While practicing and revising, a good skill in [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Style] soon became unrecognizable.

I don’t know how long I have been practicing, but finally.

  【Congratulations on unlocking a new profession—pilot! 】

 Unlocked? !

 Lu Yuan immediately stopped what he was doing and called up the career panel to check.

Sure enough, there were only two career panels left now with one more - [Pilot (Extraordinary)] lv1 (13/100)

 Only one skill named [Basic Melee lv1 (65/100)] is lit on the panel.

 The experience value is not low, and it has almost reached level 2.

“Okay, now we have a stable way to earn skill points and attribute points.”

Lu Yuan looked at this panel with a little satisfaction.

Then he didn't even take a break. He lay down in the cockpit of the mecha and started to devour the mecha.

When the lv1 [Swallow] skill was activated, Lu Yuan's body gradually melted like water, and his whole body turned into a pool of viscous black liquid, which continuously seeped into the entire mecha.

 As the first part was devoured, a red warning light lit up in the cockpit, and then the number slowly increased.

Before this, Lu Yuan specially cut off the automatic call for assistance function running in the background of the mecha. Otherwise, as soon as something went wrong here, the maintenance technicians from the manufacturer of the Blue Falcon mecha would come to the door.

If Lu Lingfeng knew that he would break the new mecha he just bought on the first day, his right to use it would have been confiscated.

 In the process of devouring the mecha parts, Lu Yuan saw that the experience value behind his [Swallow] skill was also continuously growing.

 And on the main panel of [Spirit Devouring. Gods and Demons (Super Mythical)], with the [Devour] skill as the origin, two upward-extending progress bars appear.

The one on the right is rising slowly, and soon exceeds the progress on the left, leaving it far behind.

“Do these represent the two directions of devouring advancement?

 Or does it represent two different unlocking routes for the skill tree? "

Lu Yuan secretly guessed.

 No matter what, the super-mythical career panel finally started to move, which was good news for him.

The swallowed part of the Blue Falcon mecha turned into the same liquid as Lu Yuan's body and merged into his body.

  Generally speaking, there are two ways to deal with this part of substances.

 One is to absorb the components that are useful to oneself and melt them into cells, which can be used to enhance the strength of the flesh and blood body.

Even in the later stages, the physical body of the Soul Devourers is often extremely powerful, no less powerful than many powerful races in the universe that are good at physical bodies.

The second step is to preserve this part of the material and use it to refine the Demon God's mecha.

Lu Yuan is now using the second method of processing, which is to save the materials swallowed from the Blue Falcon mecha, fuse them into his own flesh and blood, and then fill them back in again.

 Simply put, it means "eating" in first and then "vomiting" it out.

Once in and out, the hard mecha parts became part of Lu Yuan's body.

“I just need to remember the structure of the Blue Falcon. No, just remember the appearance. Others can’t see what’s inside the mecha anyway.

When it comes to fighting, I directly transform my body into the Blue Falcon Type 4, so that others will still think that I am 'controlling' the mecha inside. "

 “Is this a different kind of transformation?”

“False pilots, practice operations assiduously and strive to improve resonance, in order to achieve a deeper integration of man and machine.

 A true pilot starts from the integration of man and machine. The mecha is me, and I am the mecha!

 Every move, every move, every move is a resonance skill! "
