I've been busy with moving these few days, and am exhausted. I apologize for not being able to update! But at least I've settled down! From today onwards, I'll resume regular updates! Daily updates will be at 7 pm! ~ ~ ~

As for how Ye Chong sneaked into the Sabre without anyone noticing, Brent could not figure it out no matter how hard he tried. The Sabre was not a common ship that could be found anywhere on the streets. Those who bought this model of starship were all super-rich people, and the importance they placed on their own safety was obvious to all. Slan-class starships were equipped with the most advanced equipment, and had incredibly thick armor. It would be impossible to break in from the outside!
Even so, Ye Chong managed to sneak in without a sound. How could Brent not be curious, and even afraid of Ye Chong? While he knew that there was no such thing as an impenetrable starship, Brent still felt a chill down his spine when someone sneaked in without a sound!
Brent was not an idiot. Quentin's identity and background were unknown, and Brent was also wary of him. However, based on the current situation, it was unlikely that this mysterious guy was one of them. No matter what, it was not wise to offend such a mysterious guy. Besides, from the moment Quentin began to sneak into this starship, and he lost to him, he and Uncle Fred were no longer under his control!
If he showed hostility now, would he not be courting death? Quentin's eyes were as cold as ice, and Brent dared not have any other thoughts. The road ahead was really uncertain!
Not long ago, a few of Uncle Fred's friends mysteriously disappeared. Until now, the police still had no leads, and could only deduce that it was done by a group of people based on the method. Fred's friends were all experts in mechs, and they were reputable in their own fields. Now that they were disappearing one after another, how could they not be worried?
Not long after, Fred received news from somewhere that the group of people seemed to have their eyes on him.
Ever since they received the news that someone was going to harm Uncle Fred, Brent and Uncle Fred had planned this interstellar voyage. Right from the start, the two of them had uncharacteristically released the news with great fanfare, making it known to everyone, and exposing the two of them to everyone. Hopefully, that mysterious group of people would be a little fearful. Who would have thought that they would be hijacked by Quentin under such circumstances. However, there seemed to be a mistake. The sudden change of course must have been out of the expectations of the mysterious people hiding in the dark.
As for the idea of introducing Ye Chong to his Master, it was a spur of the moment idea. His Master was a madman who would not care about his background. His deliberate efforts over the past few days had not been in vain. When he was talking about introducing him to his master, Brent saw a trace of fanaticism that did not match his calm exterior flash across Quentin's eyes. He was immediately overjoyed. This way, if anything were to happen, Quentin would at least not stand on the other side.
A verbal promise in exchange for a possible ally. No matter how one looked at it, it was a good deal. Although it would make Brent feel a little guilty, what was a little bit of guilt when it was for Fred's Uncle? Moreover, if they really survived this risk, he would be able to keep his promise by introducing Quentin to his master.
Brent watched Quentin, who was walking towards the other gaming pod, with a complicated expression.
Ever since he finished his apprenticeship, Brent had never been defeated by anyone. This time, he was completely defeated by Quentin, and he was still brooding over it! However, combat had long since fallen into disuse. The true rulers of this galaxy were mechs, and mech pilots!
Brent's challenge this time was more or less serious. Of course, it was mostly to probe Quentin, who seemed to be a complete mystery. Brent rarely piloted a mech to fight, but this did not mean that he was lacking in skills. On the contrary, he was a true master, just that few people knew about him. After all, his uncle was Fred the Great, and his friends were all legendary mech pilots.
Touching the highly realistic control panel in the gaming pod, Brent, who was usually polite and gentle, could not help but feel his blood boil, and his spirits soared!
Ye Chong sat calmly in the gaming pod. After so many days with mechs, he could now control his emotions more easily. After all, a moment of impulsiveness usually meant death! However, a little excitement could make a mech pilot's reflexes more agile.
A calm and slightly excited state was the best state for a mech pilot!
An important difference between a rookie mech pilot and a veteran mech pilot was that the veteran would usually enter this state very quickly!
Ye Chong felt like he was born for mechs. Once he touched a mech, he would automatically enter this state, a state that deeply fascinated him!
The scene before him was extremely familiar, and Ye Chong felt like he was back on Trash Planet, where he spent his days challenging others in the mech pilot training base in the virtual world.
The dazzling array of mech models before him made Ye Chong feel a sense of familiarity. While these mechs were nothing to Ye Chong, compared to the Harmony of the Winter Aria, these so-called top-notch mechs were nothing. However, even though these mechs were not considered powerful, Ye Chong was very excited. A desire to fight uncontrollably rose from the depths of his heart!
Phew! Ye Chong exhaled a long breath, his eyes burning with passion, but his mind was as calm as ever.
Ye Chong chose the Lra mech. The Lra mech was a new model of mech released by Puwis Company this year, and was also the only close range mech of this class that Puwis Company had released this year. Its outstanding feature was its strong power, equipped with the new High Explosive Warhead – Chi engine produced this year, its performance in terms of power was excellent.
The design of the weapon was also unique, instead of the standard configuration of the flaming saber or laser sword, it used a blunt weapon, which was inconceivable. However, the ingenuity of the design was amazing. Three metal cylinders filled with tiny holes revolved rapidly around the mech under the control of the magnetic field. Once the opponent entered the range of the magnetic field, they would be immediately strangled! Moreover, the highly intelligent photon processor could effectively distinguish what entered the magnetic field. Inside the metal cylinders was another dimension. Once the strangulation was confirmed, the metal cylinders would immediately spit out high-intensity laser beams from the densely packed holes on the surface. The harmless metal cylinders would immediately turn into powerful laser hammers, and under the strangulation of three such laser hammers, the enemy mech would not be able to escape the fate of being smashed into pieces, flesh and blood splattering everywhere.
The Lra mech had a unique design as well. It was neither humanoid nor animal-like, but an ellipsoidal object. Sixteen rings revolved around the mech's axis, and the rails of the sixteen rings did not revolve around the same axis. The densely packed rotating circular rings shrouded the mech in a shadow. These high-speed rotating circular rails could effectively absorb and block the damage from energy-based weapons.
Technically speaking, the Lra mech was not a close range mech, but a long range mech with a reduced attack range.
The Lra also had a nickname - "Meat Grinder".
Brent chose to fight in space, and his mech was a Star Phantom mech produced by the East Moon Group. The Star Phantom mech was a classic long range mech, and was very popular because it fit the mainstream combat style. Besides, it had a noble and elegant appearance, and was very popular among mech pilots. The Star Phantom mech's facial lines were clear, and its expression was solemn. It looked majestic, and its silver-white body glowed brightly, adding a sense of nobility to the mech.
Ye Chong was always wary of and disliked things that were too flashy.
However, the Star Phantom mech was not just flashy. An advanced shooting system was a must for long range mechs, and the Star Phantom's body attack system was excellent in automatic lock-on. Unlike other mechs, the Star Phantom also provided a more accurate manual lock-on, but this also required a higher level of skill from the mech pilot. Besides, the Star Phantom mech performed well in aspects such as power and balance.
In space, the Star Phantom had an advantage over the Lra. More accurately, in space, long range mechs were more practical than close range mechs, since long range mechs had a larger range of control. It was not that Brent wanted to bully Ye Chong, but he did not expect Quentin to choose the Lra mech. This surprised him greatly, and Quentin became more and more mysterious to him. Brent was a student of a famous family, and did not discriminate against close range mechs. However, to him, using a close range mech in a relatively monotonous environment like space was the height of stupidity!
However, Quentin did not seem like such a stupid person, and Brent could not understand it.
Ye Chong saw that it was space, and frowned slightly. The environment was indeed disadvantageous for the Lra mech, but he did not voice any objections. He knew very well that most of the time, the battlefield was not his to choose. Instead of complaining about the disadvantage of the battlefield, it was better to use the time to think of countermeasures!
From afar, through the transparent gaming pod, Brent looked at Quentin's calm expression, and wondered. Did he have something else up his sleeve, or did he not care about winning at all?
Seeing that the game was about to begin, Brent quickly composed himself and put on his helmet.
As soon as he entered the game, Brent's Star Phantom raised its hand and fired a shot. However, Ye Chong was prepared, and easily dodged the shot. Brent did not intend to hit his opponent, but to take advantage of the situation to increase the distance between him and Quentin. As long as he could increase the distance, he believed that with his shooting skills, he could basically win. On this point, Brent was very confident.
Without any suspense, Brent achieved his goal, and successfully increased the distance between him and Quentin!
Brent was immediately reassured. Countless ideas flashed through his mind, but he could not think of any way for Quentin to turn the tables.
On the other hand, Ye Chong suddenly did something that surprised Brandt!
