The battle of the new MX mecha on Old Moon had been going on for so long, but the computer system in the command hall had only just finished analyzing the data for the first time. It wasn't that Madman Li and Xu Le, who were piloting the mecha, had already made the dual-engine mecha's battle speed exceed the computer's calculation range. It was just that the battle situation had been so intense that the people in the command hall simply had no time to deal with these things.
Machine number one was the Purple Sea developed by the Federal Academy of Science. Machine number two was the Little White Flower developed by the Shell Motor Company. Hearing the electronically synthesized female voice report the damage of both sides, the people in the command hall each had a different expression.
The previous battle had already shown that in a face-to-face battle with the new mecha, the long-range weapon system could no longer be used to its full potential. Therefore, whether it was Li Feng operating the Purple Sea or Xu Le operating the Little White Flower, they had all transferred the backup energy of the main firepower system to the mobility aspect at the first opportunity.
The decisive choice of the two pilots under Mount Kaqi, as well as the courage, confidence, and decisiveness contained in this choice … made the professionals in the command hall feel an unnatural chill.
Starting acceleration data, MDX control efficiency parameters, joint engine platinum clutch spacing — following the appearance of various numerical units, the battle data of the new MX mecha hundreds of thousands of kilometers away was transmitted back to the command hall of planet S1 through the first level of the electronic monitoring network.
One only needed to perform a simple comparison of data to discover that the Purple Sea mecha developed by the Federation's Academy of Sciences had an overall advantage, especially in terms of the power output of the main twin engines, which had an overflow value of close to 10%. In a mecha battle, such a large difference in power output was enough to determine victory and defeat.
In the right half of the command hall, the Academy of Science experts had calm and confident expressions. The technicians of the Shell Motor Company on the left looked at the data flashing below the giant holographic screen. Their expressions were somewhat grave.
The Purple Sea mecha had the advantage in terms of performance, and it was obvious that although the pilot piloting the Little White Flower mecha was also very capable, under Madman Li's ferocious attacks, he still paled in comparison. With the two added together, the people in the command hall all thought that the Purple Sea mecha from the Academy of Sciences would win.
The head of the Maneuver Department of No.1 Hospital pulled up the visual data of the pilots' control. Looking at the data of the two pilots' hand speed on the screen, his pupils could not help but shrink. It was understandable that Li Feng, who was controlling the Purple Sea, could reach such a frightening hand speed. Who knew which ace pilot the Nutshell Company had poached from the military? His hand speed was also frightening.
Just as the people in the command hall found the rare time to analyse the mecha data of both sides, the image on the giant screen changed once more.
The Purple Sea mecha seemed to not know fatigue at all, and did not care about the damage to its head. After pausing for a moment on the spot, it turned into a beautiful purple light and stepped on the soft surface of the moon, rushing towards the Little White Flower.
The white mecha was like a fragile flower. There were already many cracks on its exterior. Facing the Purple Sea's attack again, this mecha made a response that no one had expected.
Under the blazing light, the Little White Flower mecha's two engines were fully activated. In an instant, it reached the peak of four times its original power. Two smooth auxiliary flying wings slid out from the back of the mecha's waist. As the small jets under the auxiliary flying wings spat out air, the white mecha's figure shook violently. Following the surface of the weathered surface, it quickly flashed towards the back.
With the help of the auxiliary flying wings, the MX mecha from the Nutshell Company displayed its highest speed for the first time. It was as if a gust of wind had blown past it, instantly disappearing into the large shadow behind it.
That was the shadow of the Ka Qi mountain range.
On the other side, the Purple Sea mecha was still in mid-air, executing an extremely fierce mecha attack maneuver. However, in response to the sudden change in the white mecha, the Purple Sea mecha spread out its auxiliary flying wings and glided down from a height of 10 metres in the air. Using the momentum, the Purple Sea mecha forcefully accelerated, and just as it was about to land on the ground, the Purple Sea mecha changed the direction of its descent to smoothly chase after that patch of shadows.
Little White Flower and Purple Sea, one in front and one behind, were like two shooting stars traversing the vast universe. They flashed across the screen and disappeared without a trace.
…
…
The comprehensive surveillance system only took 0.017 seconds to capture the two MX mecha's figures. The high-sensitivity satellite above the polar region of the Old Moon was faithfully watching the two mecha moving quickly in the shadows of the Ka Qi mountain range. These images were transmitted to the eyes of the spectators.
Today's MX mecha battle test had greatly stimulated the spectators in the command hall of the Old Moon base. For those military representatives who had been immersed in mecha piloting for decades, the way the Purple Sea mecha operated and the strange movements of Little White Flower's mecha as it dodged were the source of their shock. For those mechanics experts and engineers, the performance of these two new MX mecha was the real reason why they were dumbfounded.
Especially when the two mecha, one in front and one behind, extended their auxiliary flying wings at almost the same time, instantly raising the speed of the mecha to a level never before seen in the Federation mecha. Everyone gasped in surprise.
The experts from the Shell Motor Company and the Federal Academy of Science had long simulated and even seen with their own eyes how terrifying the absolute speed of the MX mecha was with the assistance of the auxiliary flying wings. But today, witnessing with their own eyes the appearance of this kind of speed in the distant Old Moon base, they still found it hard to contain their excitement.
After the excitement, there was a natural round of applause. Everyone on and off the stage stood up and began to clap, moved and proud by the revolutionary breakthrough of the Federation mecha.
On the huge widescreen screen, the two mecha were operating at full power, switching from combat mode to running mode. They were running at full speed through the rugged Olde Moon Mountain Range without any footholds. This scene was filled with a thrilling sense of beauty. And in sync with the tense atmosphere on the screen, the various data being fed back to the command hall also began to rise again.
"CLK is moving up in a curve."
"CLS is approaching its peak."
"ADS adaptive suspension entering a passive wear and tear period."
Not everyone in the command hall could understand these technical terms, but those important figures heard the electronic synchronized sound become more hurried. Their hearts also became nervous. Looking at the graphical colour bar graph on one side of the large screen, they knew that the power output of the two MX mecha on Ka Qi mountain was getting higher and higher, almost reaching its limit.
Another two minutes passed. The data fed back to the ground clearly showed that the power output of the two mecha was constantly fluctuating around its peak.
Shang Qiu gripped the pen in her hand tightly, staring at the graphic display on the monitor in front of her. Her full breasts rose and fell continuously due to her rapid breathing. She was a calm engineer, but at this moment, she could no longer remain calm. She did not understand the specific reason, but she had already guessed that the person inside the little white flower mecha should be Xu Le.
This was because only Xu Le, herself, and Bai Yulan knew the biggest flaw of the Purple Sea mecha. Now that Bai Yulan had already been arrested by the Bureau of Proclamation, other than Xu Le, who else would still throw caution to the wind and use Ka Qi mountain range to speed up and bring the Purple Sea mecha into overclocking mode?
However, at this time, the Purple Sea mecha on the screen kept its distance from the little white flower mecha in front of it, maintaining the power output of its twin engines near its peak. Occasionally, it would enter overclocking mode for one or two seconds before automatically lowering its power output. The Purple Sea mecha seemed to rather not catch up to the little white flower mecha than forcefully increase its speed at this time...
"Could it be that the Academy of Science has found out?" Shang Qiu subconsciously used the tip of her pen to scratch her itchy forehead, completely oblivious to the light blue ink smeared on the side of her eyebrows. She wondered nervously in her heart — if the other had really discovered the problem with the Purple Sea mecha, then what would Xu Le, who was currently inside the white flower mecha, do? How could he really drive that Madman Li crazy and force the Purple Sea mecha into overclocking?
...
...
In the silent polar regions of the moon, in the shadows of the mountain ranges, the white mecha was like a speck of light in the dark night. One moment, it was still under a rock, and the next moment, it was using its alloy fingers to claw at a corner of the cliff and climb up. The mecha's movements were not too affected by the damage. Instead, it became more and more practiced, like a monkey leaping swiftly through the mountains.
It was impossible for there to be any plants on Ka Qi mountain range. It looked barren, but those heavily weathered cliffs and those places where one could fall at any time were actually all traps. The MX mecha could only turn its body, weighing tens of tonnes, into a nimble and leaping figure, with the help of both engines and auxiliary wings.
In the dark, cold, and bleak shadow of the back of Ka Qi mountain range, the temperature in the air had already dropped to negative 60 degrees after just a few degrees of separation from the S1 sun. Because there was no water vapour, no frost appeared on the smooth surface of the mecha. However, the alloy surface mixed with weathered sand and stone had some indescribable changes.
The outer armour's automatic temperature control system had already been turned off. In the dark cockpit, Xu Le's eyes stared intently at the various data parameters provided by the onboard computer, especially the CLS value and ADS value. The mecha's power output had already reached its peak several times, and the adaptive suspension system could no longer hold on for much longer. After all, sprinting at full speed in an environment like Ka Qi mountain range was too taxing on the mecha's body.
"Huff... huff..."
Other than the sound of static, the cockpit was silent. Xu Le's heavy breathing was exceptionally clear.
His control of Little White Flower was becoming smoother and smoother. The mecha control techniques he had painstakingly studied in the past, under the pressure of the Purple Sea mecha behind him, were almost like those 10 stances, becoming instinctive to his body. It was only in this way that he could rely on the simulation system and those combat stances to last until now in the face of Madman Li's terrifying strength.
However, the Purple Sea mecha chasing behind him cast a shadow over Xu Le's heart. The murderous aura on that mecha was so intimidating that it actually made one feel as if they could not win.
Earlier, on the weathered surface at the foot of the mountain, Little White Flower's mecha had kicked backwards in the air, successfully destroying the complex fire control system at the head of the Purple Sea mecha. However, no one had expected that the Purple Sea mecha would actually be able to skillfully control its power system in mid-air. It abruptly moved horizontally, and its mechanical leg bent horizontally to strike Little White Flower's abdomen.
It looked like both sides had suffered damage, but Xu Le knew that he had made a big mistake.
Compared to Madman Li in the Purple Sea mecha, Xu Le did not have any advantage in mecha piloting. Even with the help of the simulation system, he still could not compare to that young lieutenant colonel who had been immersed in mecha piloting since he was a child.
The only area in which he was better than Madman Li was his deep understanding of mecha structures. From the time he had repaired the old M mecha on the Ancient Bell, all the way until he had entered the Shell Engineering Division to help with the creation of the MX mecha, he could not be more familiar with every component, every circuit, every chip set, and every position of every transmission rod in a mecha. However, it was precisely because of this habitual thinking that Xu Le had chosen to target the head of the Purple Sea mecha, which had been integrated with most of its information capture system, when the white mecha had taken the risk to strike at the foot of the mountain.
However, Madman Li did not seem to care about this at all. He brutally and domineeringly traded injury for injury. It was not until the dust had settled and the palm print had landed on the ground that Xu Le understood that the most terrifying destructive power of the MX mecha was in close combat. The fire control radar was no longer as important as it had been in the past. Meanwhile, in order to destroy the opponent's fire control radar, Little White Flower's mecha had paid the price of damaging its energy transmission system.
Rocks slid down the mountain. In the darkness, the white mecha quickly and accurately found another point to leverage on. Its nimble mechanical alloy toes dug into the crevices of the rocks, and with the silent vibration of the engine and the white turbulence of the auxiliary wing jets, the body of the mecha suddenly shot up. It came to a gentle slope and charged upwards. The weathered sand and stones on the slope of the valley were silently disintegrated by the heavy body of the mecha, constantly trembling and undulating.
In a situation where the maximum power output was at a disadvantage, the Shell Engineering Division's Little White Flower mecha still possessed a speed that did not lose out to the Purple Sea mecha. On one hand, it relied on Shang Qiutian's dynamic design. On the other hand, it also proved that the Shell Engineering Division was indeed worthy of its reputation as a mecha designer for the Federal military. In the field of mecha design, it was still ahead of the Academy of Science.
The chase between Little White and the Purple Sea mecha had already lasted for more than 10 minutes. The harsh environment of ultra-low temperature did not seem to affect the performance of the two MX mecha. Their speed was still extremely fast, and the distance between them was still maintained extremely well.
Xu Le breathed heavily. He focused on controlling Little White Flower to perform one difficult movement after another. His control became more and more practiced, but his heart became heavier and heavier. He had never imagined that he could control a mecha and truly defeat Madman Li, but he knew some things that Madman Li did not know. He had been waiting for the other to enter overclocking mode, but why was the Purple Sea mecha behind him not willing to forcefully increase its speed and catch up to him?
The low-temperature vacuum environment was extremely disadvantageous for the MX's energy consumption. Madman Li in the Purple Sea had been through hundreds of battles. It was impossible for him not to know this. Why was he willing to drag it out like this?
The blazing light of the stars shone over the top of the mountain and into the mecha's field of vision, dispelling the cold and darkness. Little White Flower's mecha did a high-speed somersault to the top of the mountain.
Then it turned back.
…
…
"What does he want to do?"
The giant screen showed the image of Little White Flower's mecha leaping to the top of Mount Kaqi and then turning back. No one knew how the Federation's electronic surveillance system did it, but the real-time image on the screen had a very high resolution rate. The angle of view was also very beautiful. It was obvious that it was not captured by a high-altitude satellite.
The mecha chase that lasted for more than ten minutes seemed to be a little dull. This was originally a silent battle, but the performance of the two mecha at the foot of the mountain and their exquisite control was enough to excite the audience. In these ten minutes, in the shadows of Mount Kaqi, only the white and purple mecha could be seen moving forward at high speed. This went on for a very long time.
The data and computer analysis already showed the people in the command hall and Old Moon Assembly Base that the Academy of Science's Purple Sea mecha had the upper hand.
As for Little White Flower's mecha running up the mountain, everyone was shocked, but they also gradually understood the thoughts of the pilot. Until now, there were still not many people who knew that the pilot in the white mecha was a technical supervisor. They all thought that the pilot must also be an absolutely outstanding ace pilot of the Federation military. Thus, when the image of the white mecha braking and turning around appeared on the screen, everyone felt a strong sense of suspicion. Faced with the overwhelming advantage of the Purple Sea mecha and Li Feng's unstoppable attacks, why would this unknown ace pilot give up the rare balance of speed and stop at the top of the mountain?
At this point in the battle, the Federal Academy of Science's Purple Sea mecha's performance advantage was shown, so the engineers in the command hall were very calm. Shang Qiu, who had a few traces of blue ink at the corner of his eyebrows, looked in that direction, then turned back to look at Lin Yuanhu behind him. Seeing the old man's calm and confident expression, he could not help but snort coldly in his heart.
The performance of the Purple Sea mecha depended on its design, and the function model that the design was based on had a parameter error. The MX designed by Nutshell Company was to fix that parameter error, and a part of its performance was sacrificed. No one in the command hall knew this better than Shang Qiu, but the situation was one-sided, and even if she wanted to put on a confident expression, it was extremely difficult. She only knew that Little White Flower was standing at the top of Mount Kaqi and turning back. He must be thinking of a way to drag the Purple Sea into overclocking, but she did not know what that guy was going to do.
Suddenly, a middle-aged expert beside her touched her shoulder and said hurriedly, "What is Little White Flower doing?"
Shang Qiu quickly turned to look at the screen, and her red lips could not help but open slightly. Like everyone in the command hall, she let out an exaggerated gasp.
On the giant screen, the white mecha's mechanical arm extended a repair arm from the front, pressing against the heavily damaged abdomen of the mecha, as if some kind of repair work was being done.
