127: Chapter 127: Invitation (Extra for Book Buddy Cai Xiaoqia) (31st Update) 127: Chapter 127: Invitation (Extra for Book Buddy Cai Xiaoqia) (31st Update) Thinking of this, Qian Chengxue’s gaze hardened.
She controlled her cha to crouch slightly, fully pushed the power lever, and rapidly entered a series of commands.
The instant the Silver cha’s strike was blocked, it swiftly retracted the silver blade, and with a twist, slashed upwards from below aiming to cleave Su Mo in two.
Su Mo instinctively sensed extre danger and rapidly calculated how to respond in his mind.
He discovered no matter how he tried to block, it would be too late; he was definitely going to be cleaved.
Was he really going to lose like this?
Suddenly, Su Mo had a flash of inspiration, controlled his cha to retreat quickly, and dodged the attack.
Then, he boldly reversed his move, charged forward head-on, fully pushed the control lever, controlled his cha to leap up, and fiercely swung down his Alloy Blade with unstoppable force!
The opponent was also startled, not expecting her attack to miss.
“Die!”
Su Mo slashed down ruthlessly with his blade.
If this strike connected, his opponent would be either dead or severely crippled.
However, just as Su Mo was about to succeed,
the power of the Silver cha in front of him suddenly surged, like it was overclocking, while her silver blade began vibrating at high speed.
She slightly crouched, tilted her right foot forward, and the blade in her hand, like an afterimage, slashed horizontally.
“Thunder Light Flash!”
The two blades collided.
In an instant, Su Mo’s Alloy Blade flew out of his hands and heavily embedded into the ground beside him.
The entire cha tilted backward and heavily fell to the ground.
Su Mo was dazed inside the cockpit.
What happened?
Even if the opponent managed to counterattack in ti, he should have still had the advantage!
Could it be that he had actually lost?
At that mont, the Silver cha raised the silver blade in her hand toward Su Mo.
Su Mo revealed a bitter smile.
He had indeed lost.
Of course, he didn’t know that at this mont, Qian Chengxue’s heart was even less calm.
If controlling a cha was compared to a ga, it was as though she, a top professional champion, had struggled against a bronze player who had only played a few tis, and in the end, had only managed to claim victory using her fad technique.
However, this result made her more satisfied.
At least it proved he wasn’t a spy sent by another guild.
After all, one couldn’t access cha training without proper identity and background.
The only thing available was the leaked civilian version, which at most let you indulge your hands and get familiar with the basic operations.
Just as Su Mo was calmly accepting his defeat, the Silver cha retracted her blade and then extended a hand toward Su Mo in a friendly gesture.
Su Mo blinked in surprise and subconsciously controlled his cha to extend its hand, only to see the Silver cha pull his cha up.
Then, a cold voice emanated from the Silver cha.
“Welco to the Pioneer Group.
I am Qian Chengxue, the Legion Leader of the Tenth Legion.”
Su Mo frowned slightly, a peculiar expression crossing his face.
Qian Chengxue?
Wasn’t that Zhao Han’s imdiate superior?
Seeing that Su Mo remained silent, Qian Chengxue didn’t mind and directly extended an invitation, “Your strength is quite impressive, the previous fight was just a test.
Now, I formally invite you to join the pioneering team, the First Combat Elite Group.”
Su Mo was even more astonished, but eventually, he spoke to decline.
“Thanks, but I don’t have that intention for the ti being.
I think staying in Group Twelve is pretty good.”
“It’s up to you.
If you ever change your mind, the doors of the First Combat Elite Group are always open to you,” Cheng Xue said.
After speaking, she sped away in her cha, making no attempt to coerce Su Mo or offer him any tempting benefits, as she believed combat partners should join willingly.
Su Mo remained stationary for a while, picking up the discarded tal box, and continued driving his cha towards the Observation Base.
At that mont, Su Mo’s mind kept replaying the previous battle; Cheng Xue maneuvering her cha for each attack, flawlessly reproducing in his mind, and gradually slowing down in speed.
Su Mo soon noticed a problem.
Throughout the battle, Cheng Xue’s attacks were exceptionally smooth, with no incongruence or pauses, and the high intensity of continuous attacks had no awkward halts.
Moreover, her each attack didn’t cover a large scope, leaving her plenty of room to maneuver.
It could be said that she completely overpowered him in terms of combat skills.
However, these differences were not the most shocking; what truly surprised Su Mo was the final blow, just when he thought he had prevailed.
But the outco was a loss.
How did she manage to unleash such formidable speed and power in that instant?
No, it wasn’t just about the power, there was also an issue with her attack.
Even if her burst of power exceeded that of the Azure cha, it was normally improbable for her to knock the weapon out of his hands.
There must be so discrepancy sowhere.
The defeat didn’t frustrate Su Mo; rather, it ignited an intense interest in him.
For him, there was nothing more intriguing than defeating soone stronger than himself.
As dawn’s sunlight filled the earth, Su Mo drove his cha along a path into the rugged forest.
He twisted and turned through the woods, entering a basin, where the sight in front of him was stunning.
At a glance, rows of gigantic factories equipped with modern technology neatly sat in the valley.
“Who’s there!”
At that mont, a patrol team imdiately noticed Su Mo and quickly surrounded him.
Su Mo opened the cockpit, revealing his face and said, “I am Su Mo, elite mber of Group Twelve, ID 54288, on a special transportation mission.”
The team leader, after hearing this, imdiately pulled out a special device and input the ID number.
Suddenly, Su Mo’s photo and identity information popped up on the device, and the mission status was displayed.
After verifying everything was correct, the team leader saluted Su Mo.
“I am Tai Shi, the patrol team leader stationed at Observation Base.
Thank you for your cooperation.”
“Captain Tai Shi, could you tell where I need to deliver my mission?
The instructions didn’t say whom to look for.”
“Please follow ,” responded Tai Shi.
“Right,” said Su Mo.
Su Mo resealed the cockpit and followed Tai Shi deeper inside.
Soon, they turned off a narrow path onto a main cent thoroughfare, which was very spacious, spanning over fifty ters wide, flanked by rows of differently purposed factories and production bases.
For instance, on the left side, an area covered with transparent fibrous film housed enormous shelves, each one holding bins of formulated nutrient solutions cultivating sterile vegetables.
On the right side was a complex purification plant; they ran pipes deep into the ground, extracting slightly polluted groundwater, purifying it, then packaging it into bottles of clean water.
“Are these factories producing basic materials?” Su Mo asked in surprise.
“Yes, don’t underestimate these basic supplies; they are extrely important.
Although basic supplies can be found in any fallen city, with the rapid increase in players and consumption rates, those supplies in the fallen areas will sooner or later run out.
Haven’t you noticed the prices of basic materials rising?” answered Tai Shi.
