Somewhere in the Dust Light Star Cluster, the troops led by Teny suffered a new wave of attacks. While shooting Primordial Psionic Energy at the enemy, they sent out small assault ships to shuttle through the complicated battlefield and close in on the enemy. This was the nemesis of the Kunde Race fleet that did not have any Supers.
In the previous battles, Teny had always allowed the Black Star Corps to do nothing. In order to balance out the opinions of the other organizations, he had allowed the Black Star Corps to take the lead in this small wave of enemies.
In the complicated battlefield, a small battleship made all sorts of maneuvers, shuttling between the energy cannons while avoiding the expanding Primordial Psionic Energy.
Inside the cabin, there were many armed landing squads waiting for orders in the various assault cabins. Nero's squad was one of the squads deployed on this spaceship.
The interior of the cabin was gray, and it was slightly dark. Only a row of red lights flashed at the top, dyeing everyone's faces red. On the metal walls of the cabin, there were electromagnetic discs emitting blue light. Nero's team members were split into two rows with their backs against the electromagnetic discs, allowing the back of their combat suits to be absorbed by the electromagnetic discs to stabilize their bodies.
The spaceship was flying with great difficulty, and the cabin was trembling slightly. Outside the window, beams from the cannons flashed past, and Nero's face turned pale.
"Kid, there's no need to be afraid. Our spaceship's mobility far exceeds the enemy's. They won't be able to hit us."
The captain in the heavy mechanical suit laughed and patted Nero's shoulder.
Normally, people who say such things would be in trouble the next second … Nero couldn't help but curse.
There was a simulation course in the academy, and Nero was clear about all the things to take note of. However, facing a real battle, he still felt nervous.
"This is the first time you're fighting alongside our team after joining us. Let us see your actual combat strength. Don't be a burden," the captain said.
"Got it." Nero took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
Waiting in the cabin was a torturous thing, and time seemed to drag on for a long time. Nero did not know how long had passed, but a notification suddenly sounded in the cabin.
"Target locked. The cabin will be launched in forty-five seconds. Please prepare for battle! I repeat, please prepare for battle! "
When the countdown appeared on the screen, Nero's heart skipped a beat. He turned around and saw that all of his teammates had tensed up.
"This is the last equipment check!" The captain shouted in a serious tone.
Everyone was already prepared, but they still checked their mecha once more. Nero also activated his mecha once more.
Right now, he was equipped with a special mech that he had personally modified. The second generation of the Earth could use a lot of resources to create a mech made from rare materials. Its performance was even better than the standard armor of the Black Star Corps.
Although with Nero's identity, he could obtain armor made by higher grade Mechanics, he still preferred to study new blueprints by himself.
This mech was based on the Mountain Ape that Han Xiao had once used. However, Nero didn't have such high mechanical skills, so he used a simplified version that he had personally modified. He named this mech 'Steel Ape', and it was mainly used for close combat.
As a true brittle Mechanic, the first thing that Nero considered when creating the armor was close combat ability. Under the influence of Han Xiao and Mia, Nero also had a soft spot for close combat.
Nero's current Grade was C +, but with [Perfect Mechanical Sense] and the normal Mechanic talents that he had obtained over the years, his Mechanic ability could reach Grade B, and the quality of the equipment that he created would far exceed that of the same grade.
"Ready, ten seconds countdown!"
Hearing the captain's shout, Nero took a deep breath and put on his mecha's visor. He and his teammates got into a battle stance.
Rumble!
The next moment, a huge propulsion force was applied to their bodies, and the cabin walls trembled violently as the cabin shot out.
On the screen, the location of the target was marked, and the distance between them was rapidly decreasing.
Bang!
The entire cabin shook, and it bit into the enemy ship. The laser cutter quickly cut a hole in the outer armor of the enemy ship, and the cabin crashed into the enemy ship.
The door opened, and in front of them was a messy passageway. Without any hesitation, everyone followed the captain out of the cabin and began to clean up the enemies on the ship.
The enemy reinforcements arrived very quickly, and the team encountered a large number of enemies.
The Kunde Race warriors had all undergone genetic modification, and while they were not Supers and did not have any special abilities, their physiques were not bad. Their basic attributes were around LV25 to LV45, which was between Grade E and Grade D. Coupled with their various combat armors, their combat strength was not weak.
The team was blocked in the middle of a passageway, and the enemy reinforcements swarmed in from both sides. They held onto their guns and continuously fired at the center.
Nero had long tossed out a compressed orb, which turned into a mini fortress to protect the team. The walls of the fortress and the shield blocked the attacks of the Kunde Race soldiers from both sides, and they returned fire from within the fortress.
"Kid, not bad."
The captain encouraged Nero before pointing at the vice-captain. "Launch an assault. I will be in charge of the front, and you will be in charge of the back. Nero, set up the cannons and mechanical soldiers at the back to provide cover for us."
After saying that, the captain led his team members and charged out of the fortress, braving the cannon fire as they charged forward. The advantage of being a Super was that their individual combat strength was far superior. As long as they charged into the crowd, they would be invincible.
Nero calmed himself down and tossed out a large number of compressed orbs, which transformed into various cannons.
Tu tu tu!
The cannons fired at the enemies on both sides to provide cover for his teammates.
With the enhancement of his Mechanical Force, the power of his long-range weapons was extremely shocking, and they instantly tore apart the formation of the Kunde Race soldiers on both sides. The shields and armor of the Kunde Race soldiers were destroyed one after another, and their body fluids splattered all over the walls and floor.
After killing a large number of enemies in an instant, a gray aura flowed into the Mark of Death on the back of Nero's hand. This was a small gift that Hella had given him a long time ago. The more enemies he killed, the more his mental strength would increase. Nero had only been able to use this mark at this moment.
With the support of his firepower, his teammates easily broke through the formation of the Kunde Race soldiers and slaughtered them all.
Many of his teammates were impressed by Nero's performance and praised him in their hearts.
"This newbie's firepower is truly ferocious."
"Is an ordinary Grade C Mechanic so powerful?"
"This kid has some capabilities. He is indeed related to His Excellency Black Star."
The team quickly advanced, and the reinforcements of the enemy increased. All of them charged forward without fear of death, and the situation was extremely tragic.
This was especially so for the Pugilists led by the captain. Their fists and kicks were extremely heavy, and while they might not be able to shatter the armor of the enemy, the surging Pugilist flames were more than enough to kill the Kunde Race soldiers within the armor.
The scattered corpses on the ground made Nero feel a little uncomfortable. Even though his mechanical suit was filtering the air, he could still smell the pungent smell of blood.
The fearless attitude of the Kunde Race shocked Nero, but he and his teammates did not hold back at all. All of the Kunde Race soldiers that charged forward were basically killed for nothing.
This was the first time that he was facing a real battle, so he was nervous. However, he did not pity his enemies. The army had a targeted education in this aspect.
However, Nero was also excited despite his nervousness. He did not wish to stay at the back and provide cover fire.
As a Mechanic from the Black Star, his physical combat instincts were raring to go. He could not help but charge forward a few times, but he was afraid that he would be scolded by his teammates.
Right at this moment, a cry of surprise sounded from the communication channel of his teammates.
The Kunde Race soldiers were attacking the Black Star Army warriors who were close to them, and one of their teammates had his shield broken. He was instantly targeted, and the armor on his body was severely damaged. Black smoke rose from his body, and he staggered backward from the recoil. It was as though he had entered a temporary dazed state.
The surrounding Kunde Race soldiers pulled out their high-frequency daggers and pounced forward, pouncing on him and stabbing him with their daggers.
His teammate was a Grade C Pugilist with a strong physique. His body was covered in flames as he fought and sent one enemy after another flying. However, an endless stream of enemies charged at him without fear of death. Both sides were entangled in a fight, and his body was stabbed a few times before he fell into a dangerous situation.
Just when the nearby teammates were about to turn around and help, a black figure suddenly charged out from behind and knocked a large group of Kunde Race soldiers away like a bowling ball knocking a bunch of bottles away. It was Nero, who could no longer suppress his desire to engage in close combat.
The nearby Kunde Race soldiers turned around and surrounded Nero. Nero's tactical screen displayed the trajectory of the enemy's attacks, and he followed the instructions to dodge and squat down. His movements were extremely smooth, and the enemy's daggers brushed past his mechanical suit's shield, creating a trail of sparks.
Nero flicked out his wrist blade, and as he dodged, he continued to hack and stab. His speed was peerless, and his wrist blade sliced through the enemy's armor and body like tofu. The cold blade brought out waves of boiling blood as he killed all of his enemies.
After helping his teammates out, Nero did not return to the back to focus on firing the cannons. Instead, he charged into the midst of the enemy and slashed them one after another, causing their formation to turn upside down.
Looking at the enemies falling one by one under his wrist blade, Nero felt extremely satisfied.
Indeed, a true Mechanic should engage in close combat! This is the style of a Mechanic!
Seeing this scene, a look of surprise flashed across the captain's face.
Although he knew that Nero was the strongest member of the team, they had never fought side by side before today, so he didn't have a good understanding of each other's abilities.
Seeing Nero carving out a path of blood, the captain muttered in his heart, "What a Mechanic.
Why does he keep charging forward to engage in close combat for no reason? What's wrong with him? "
In front of a group of Supers, the Kunde Race soldiers in the spaceship did not have much ability to resist. The battle did not last for long, and the enemy was quickly wiped out.
Blue-green blood stains covered the entire command room, and all of the enemy's crew members were killed. Everyone kept their weapons and heaved a sigh of relief.
Nero kept the compressed orbs and was in a daze, as though he was still reminiscing about the previous battle.
Seeing this, the captain walked to Nero's side and grabbed his shoulder with a smile. "The battle just now was not bad. How do you feel? Are you still not used to it?"
"I-I feel much better." Nero hurriedly waved his hands. After a true battle, his state was no longer as tense.
Although he was a little nervous at the beginning, he gradually got into a good mood and felt more and more relaxed. The hand-to-hand combat was free and unrestrained, making him feel very comfortable.
He did not feel any discomfort from killing. Firstly, they were of different species, so the psychological impact was not that great. Secondly, Supers had a certain level of mental toughness and could easily accept all sorts of cruel scenes. Thirdly, after obtaining Supers, their mentality would change, and they would want to use whatever ability they had.
"It's the first time, so it's normal to see some blood. You'll get used to it in the future." The captain's tone was casual. "If you feel any discomfort, you can come and find me. I'll give you some advice for free."
"Thank you, but I don't need it."
A smile appeared on Nero's face as he was slightly moved. After this battle, he couldn't help but feel a sense of camaraderie towards this small team. Their relationship had become much closer.
…
Nero's first life and death battle was extremely smooth, and it gave him quite a bit of confidence. The battle did not last for too long, and the Kunde Race fleet was defeated without any suspense. The dynasty's fleet quickly started to clean up the battlefield.
In the main ship, Teny looked at the spaceships sent by the Black Star Army that were basically intact and returned to the troops. He nodded calmly.
He was very satisfied that the Black Star Corps did not suffer any casualties. As the commander, he had many ways to reduce the casualties of the Black Star Corps. He intended to repay Han Xiao.
Beep beep!
Right at this moment, his communicator rang.
Teny took a look, and his expression changed slightly. He immediately picked up the call and spoke with a respectful tone.
"Your Excellency Black Star, I was prepared to visit you after the battle, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to contact me."
"We haven't talked in a long time, and I have something to ask of you." The one who called was Han Xiao.
"May I know why you're looking for me?" Teny did not like small talk and went straight to the point.
"I heard that you want to protect the Black Star Corps?"
"Yes." Teny nodded.
"Ah ah, this is what I want to ask of you. You don't have to protect my men too much. I sent them to participate in the battle, partly to participate in the recruitment and partly to train them." Han Xiao raised his brows and smiled.
"I understand." Hearing that, Teny did not waste any more time. Since the main character had spoken, he would not reject.
"Also, I hope that you can take care of this person …"
Han Xiao sent Nero's information to Teny with a strange smile.
"This kid is my student. I want him to train more. If it's convenient, try to give him more chances to fight. Also, if he encounters any accidents, I'll be the one training him. Don't find it strange."
He felt that he still had some conscience and did not interfere with Nero's first battle to build his confidence.
However, he was going to make a move after that, so he came over to inform Teny first.
Teny looked at the information and nodded. "I'll make the arrangements."
"Then, I'll have to trouble you. After the battle, I'll wait for you in the Garu Star Cluster. We'll have a good chat then."
"Okay."
After ending the call, Teny looked at Nero's information again and muttered to himself,
"Black Star's student, huh … I'll have to make arrangements for him."
…
At the same time, the mixed army led by another Dynasty official had also just finished a battle in another area. They cleaned up the battlefield and continued marching.
The commander, who had just finished commanding a battle, went to rest, and the work was temporarily taken over by the deputy commander. As the adjutant of the commander, Gaud also got a short break.
After greeting his colleagues, Gaud returned to his room, took off his officer uniform, and walked into the bathroom. Soon, the sound of water splashing could be heard.
After taking a shower, Gaud wrapped a towel around himself and walked to the mirror with his upper body naked. He carefully sized up his body.
Pale skin, tall and thin, ordinary looks …
Looking at the mirror, Gaud raised his hand and touched the face in the mirror. A faint smile appeared on his face.
"A young body … is so good."
