It was a pair of hands with astonishing speed. Hak did not expect a person who did not come from Black Cove to have such speed. The hands were the most agile part of the human body, and could do the most things. The faster the hands, the more things could be done in a certain amount of time, and the function of the hands was obvious. On the edge of life and death, it could be decided by a matter or a few milliseconds. Such outstanding hand speed was rare even in Black Cove!
Mu did not seem to realize the true power of his hands.
Hak looked at Ye Chong, who was standing quietly at the side, and nodded, "Not bad, not bad at all!"
Ye Chong was silent, and did not speak.
Hak seemed to recall something, and spoke after a long pause, "Tell me about your understanding of mech pilots!"
Ye Chong tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Mech operators!"
Hak nodded, "Most people would think so!" Ye Chong was slightly surprised, and lifted his head to look at Hak.
Hak spoke slowly, with an indescribable nostalgia in his voice, "Mech pilots are not what you think they are. The outside world's definition of mech pilots, and those tests, are all meaningless things. Hmph, those are child's play! The real world of mech pilots is far beyond your imagination, and not known to outsiders! Do you know what mech pilots used to be? "
Ye Chong shook his head.
"Mech pilots used to be people who pursued strength. The rise of mechanical civilization made people realize the power of machines. The traditional secret arts and ancient martial arts quickly declined, and were replaced by the rise of mech pilots. Later on, people found that ancient martial artists or secret arts masters could operate mechs with greater strength, and could survive more easily in difficult environments. Later on, people thought of combining ancient martial arts and secret arts with mechs, and created a new type of mech pilot. These mech pilots were no match for ordinary ancient martial artists or secret arts masters with their bare hands, but once they piloted a mech, they could perform extremely well. About 500 years ago, there was a catastrophe, an unprecedented catastrophe. Many people died in the catastrophe, and those who survived were mostly mech pilots, which directly led to the destruction of other forces. Three hundred years ago, something else happened. Mech pilots were spread to the outer galaxies and became known to outsiders! However, the things they obtained are undoubtedly extremely backward. As for what exactly is going on inside, I'm not very clear! " Huck then continued, "But it's not easy for people from the Five Major Star Regions to understand what ancient martial arts and secret techniques are!"
Ye Chong's heart was in turmoil! He didn't expect there to be such an inside story! According to Huck's words, Huck was not from the Five Major Star Fields. Instead, he came from another mysterious and unknown place. Moreover, that place seemed to have a very subtle relationship with the Five Major Star Fields!
"The three most important factors for a pilot are the body, the mech, and the spirit. This had directly led to the creation of the three most mainstream schools. One was the path of a combination of ancient martial arts and technology, with the goal of tempering the body. There was also another type that took the path of combining secret arts and technology. Hmm, most of the people who practiced secret arts had a stronger mind. There was also a type that took the purely mechanical route. To be honest, this is also the most detestable school. They directly modify the body, making it look like neither a human nor a ghost. However, they are still very strong! And their mechs are undoubtedly the most advanced among the three schools! " Although Huck's disgust towards the third school was obvious, he still had to admit their strength!
Ye Chong listened attentively!
"You must have guessed it, we belong to the first school. I have to say, ancient martial arts do have an amazing effect on the development of the human body. Ancient martial arts are undoubtedly extensive and profound, but we only take a part of its effects. I don't know how you train, and I don't sense any energy fluctuations in your body. However, I'm very puzzled that your muscle fibers aren't as thick as ordinary people's. "Obviously, Huck didn't want to study this issue." I'm not sure how you train, and I don't sense any energy fluctuations from your body. "Alright, come with me!"
Huck led Ye Chong into a huge hall. There were many oval-shaped instruments in the hall. The outer shell of the instruments was made of transparent material, and the inside was filled with a kind of silvery liquid. It looked very viscous. Many of the instruments had people soaking in it, eyes closed, expression serene, seemingly enjoying themselves.
Pointing at an empty oval-shaped chamber, Huck said, "Go in and try!" Ye Chong doubtfully walked to the oval-shaped chamber. Swoosh! The chamber slid out an entrance big enough for Ye Chong. Ye Chong walked in. Swoosh! Another soft sound, and the chamber closed up. The silvery liquid flowed upwards from his feet, first to his knees, then to his waist, then to his chest, and finally stopped below his neck.
Ye Chong suddenly felt a sense of laziness. His body was warm, and he felt so comfortable that he wanted to moan. Gradually, Ye Chong felt drowsy, but he seemed to be wide awake, in a state of half-asleep.
After some time, Ye Chong felt like he had woken up abruptly. He saw Huck staring at him, not knowing what was going through his mind under the black mask. The silvery liquid receded like the tide, and soon, the chamber was completely empty. Ye Chong was surprised to find that there was not a single drop of silvery liquid left on his body, and his clothes were still the same as when he came in.
Huck saw Ye Chong coming out, "How do you feel?"
Ye Chong nodded, "Not bad, not bad at all."
A strange look flashed in Huck's eyes, "Do you feel like your body is full of energy, and you want to vent it?"
Ye Chong felt his body was burning hot the moment the silvery liquid left his body. He felt like his body was full of energy. With Huck's reminder, Ye Chong's desire to vent grew stronger, and he could not help but nod!
Huck led Ye Chong to an empty training ground. There were all kinds of training facilities on the ground, "Here, exhaust all your energy, and then go back to the previous place and soak in it until you wake up naturally. You only need to go back and forth three times! Alright, you can practice on your own! "Huck left after that.
Ye Chong obeyed Huck's instruction, and every time he exhausted all his energy, he would climb back into the chamber to replenish himself. Inside the chamber, Ye Chong could almost feel his energy recovering bit by bit, and it was a wonderful feeling.
Once he was done, Ye Chong ran to the training ground to replenish his energy. After going back and forth three times, Ye Chong found that his energy recovery in the chamber was much faster, and when he came out, he did not feel as hot as the first time. Instead, he felt like his usual self.
After going back and forth three times, it was already night time when Ye Chong finished. He had not eaten for a whole day, but he did not feel hungry at all. He guessed that it might be the effect of the silvery liquid.
He found quite a number of steel balls in the training ground, and stuffed them into his pocket. He walked all the way back to his room, and met Johansson on the way. Both of them did not speak, only nodded at each other lightly, and walked past each other.
