Crack!
The gorgeous mecha’s back slowly split open, revealing a cockpit just large enough for one person to sit. After Freya jumped down, the mecha closed up slowly.
Jack couldn’t see what was going on inside, but after roughly ten minutes,
Hum!
As if the face of the mecha was something cold and unearthly, its eyes lit up, and a powerful surge of energy waved from inside, prompting the massive figure to move with a boom.
Thump! Beneath the heavy footsteps of the mecha, the alloy ground trembled slightly.
Watching the mecha that was slowly getting into action, Emma stated calmly, “You have now completed the initial pirefining process. Next, you must familiarize yourself with the controls and fully pirefine the eternal power furnace.”
“I have programmed multiple forms into the core system of this mecha. However, as you are only a Fourth Layer Heaven Cultivator, your True Strength can only support the normal form.”
“Alright, go to the training field and familiarize yourselves with this God Machine Armament. I still have experiments to complete,” she said.
Emma was busy, so after speaking, she left, leaving behind Freya and Jack in the warehouse, getting used to the mecha’s controls.
After Freya was nearly capable of performing basic operations, Jack curiously walked over to her. “How is it, Freya? What does it feel like to operate a mecha?” he asked.
From inside the four-meter-tall gorgeous mecha, Freya’s voice came out somewhat excitedly, “It feels like I have an extra body; the nerve system link makes control smooth.”
“Is that so? Let me see.” As Jack said this, his hand landed on the thigh of the mecha, and the strength in his palm erupted.
Then the four-meter-tall, hundred-ton mecha was single-handedly lifted by Jack, who even swung it curiously a couple of times as if it were a large toy.
“Ah! Jack, slow down, slow down,” Freya said, a bit panicked as Jack lifted her up and swung her around in the air.
“Sorry, this is my first encounter with a mecha, purely curious,” Jack said with a smile, and gently set the ‘massive’ mecha back down.
“But this God Machine Armament is indeed impressive. It’s powerful.”
When he lifted the mecha, Jack was not only curious about its weight but also sensed the internal structure of the mecha; however, his Spiritual Will was blocked by a strong and tenacious force.
Inside the mecha, he vaguely sensed a ‘meridians’ network similar to a human’s and the power reactor in its chest suppressing a terrifying amount of energy.
At that moment, Freya said excitedly, “Jack, let’s go up and test the strength of this armament.”
Jack nodded indifferently.
With that, Freya picked up the 7-meter-long sniper cannon and shouldered the huge sword.
At the same time, the platinum mecha extended its arms, and mechanical arms from the wall extended out, snapping two small missile boxes and two science fiction-styled energy weapon modules onto it.
In the blink of an eye, Freya had completed the preliminary weapon equipment.
Then, the wall at the back of the warehouse slowly opened up, revealing a larger ‘elevator’ that transported the two and the mecha to the surface.
It was the same weapon testing field as before; the mecha, now holding a seven-meter-long sniper cannon with a diameter of twenty centimeters, slightly squatted to take a shooting stance.
Hum! A powerful energy gathered at the cannon’s barrel, and the sniper cannon’s runes flickered with light.
Boom!
With the trigger pulled, a blast and a flash of fire startled the mecha, and a half hillside over a thousand meters away instantly collapsed, blown apart by boiling firelight.
Looking at the collapsed hillside in the distance and the crater over ten meters in diameter amidst the smoke and dust, Jack was a bit surprised, “That shot is already comparable to a blow from a typical Sixth Layer Heaven cultivator.”
Such is the power of modern technological weapons. With the right weapon equipment, even an ordinary cultivator can possess destructive power akin to that of senior or even high-level cultivators.
However, it’s just the destructive force, and also this mecha is so expensive it can’t be equipped on a large scale.
Equipment typically used for ‘human wave’ tactics tends to be more ‘economical.’
At this moment, the mecha slightly turned its head to look at Jack while Freya’s voice came from inside. “This kind of target practice is pointless, Jack. How about we spar?”
Suddenly, Jack’s gaze turned curious, “Are you sure?”
Under Freya’s control, the mecha gave a definitive nod, oozing confidence, “Sure.”
“Okay then.”
Jack’s figure flickered, and he appeared hundreds of meters away in the field, and with a flick of his hand, he drew a 3.8-meter-long Eight Desolations Battle Halberd.
In an instant, a heavy and mighty aura emanated from him.
However, Jack only pulled out his weapon, not wearing battle armor, and looking at the distant Freya, his lips quirked upwards, “Come on, let’s see how strong you are now.”
“I’m super strong right now.”
Inside the cockpit, Freya, somewhat excited, commanded the mecha to draw the battle sword from its back. At the same time, the chest began emitting a dazzling blue radiance, with energy runes flickering all over the body.
Whoosh!
The mecha’s back wings spurted forth a searing light, and with the burst of air waves, it broke the sound barrier with a bang, stirring up a raging wind wave and a surge of smoke and dust.
At supersonic speed, the mecha swung the battle sword, slicing through the air like a silver refining streak and in an instant hovering above Jack’s head, its energy radiance extending the blade light over ten meters.
Boom! The earth shattered within tens of meters range, and countless rocks and dirt mixed with the shockwave swept over dozens of meters.
In the dust-filled crater, Jack stood with golden flame erupting from his body, holding the halberd with one arm across his body, firmly catching Freya’s supersonic sword strike.
Right at that moment, Jack’s arm muscles surged with power, sweeping his arm sideways.
Boom!
The four-meter-tall mecha was blasted off like a cannonball, sent flying a hundred meters before it landed, sliding another dozen meters and stopping after leaving two deep grooves in the ground.
Looking at the far off Jack holding the halberd, calm and collected, a look of amazement appeared in Freya’s eyes. This guy has gotten even stronger after his breakthrough into the Seventh Layer Heaven.
