Tempest of the Stellar War Chapter 454 - Crisis

“Master, how can I help you?”

Upon looking, w.a.n.g Zheng had a shock. A pitch-black robot jumped into his view and stood in front of him. It was really ugly.

w.a.n.g Zheng recognized that this fellow was Charcoal. He looked left and right happily. He had entered the Rubik’s Cube.

Thinking, he thought that this was right too. The Rubik’s Cube could draw energy from the virtual battles of CT, so the IG, where each opponent was stronger than the last, was even better. Unknowingly, while w.a.n.g Zheng was trying his best, the Rubik’s Cube’s Battle Energy had also gotten a great boost.

Charcoal was a little proud. He explained that the Rubik’s Cube’s energy usage had become more efficient under his optimization.

w.a.n.g Zheng looked to the left and then looked to the right. He did not see Bonehead. Usually, Bonehead would be fighting with Charcoal like he was defending himself against a thief. Where was he?

“Where’s Bonehead? Did you bully him?”

Bonehead looked scary, but this humble-looking Charcoal had come in without an invitation and had even forcefully built a home inside the Rubik’s Cube. w.a.n.g Zheng was still worried for Bonehead in the depths of his heart. Even though he had been abused by Bonehead before, even after considering he had his life threatened before, w.a.n.g Zheng still took Bonehead to be his teacher.

Charcoal looked at w.a.n.g Zheng, and actually started cackling. w.a.n.g Zheng glared at him. Did he have to laugh so sinisterly? Did he really get rid of Bonehead?

“Based on Bonehead’s and my a.n.a.lysis and judgement, Master, you need a super mech that is way more advanced than what is currently available. Bonehead is preparing for this. He’s now in a crucial period, and at the moment cannot leave.”

Charcoal pointed towards the back. The pitch black background lit up. Far away, there was a huge, dark shape that indeed looked like a mech.

“You guys can make a mech for me? F*ck. If I can’t bring it out, what’s the use?”

Charcoal’s eyes sparkled and sparkled, as though they were mocking him. “You can bring this out of the cube. But don’t you think that there’s a problem with his aesthetic sense? My design aesthetics are much more handsome compared to his!”

Charcoal took the opportunity to take jabs at Bonehead.

With Charcoal, w.a.n.g Zheng was no longer lonely. They chatted from the north to the south, from the sky to the sea. Most of the time, he was asking about Charcoal’s previous owner. w.a.n.g Zheng had strong suspicions that there must have been an app that was specially installed for the purposes of boasting in Charcoal’s data memory cache. He boasted about his previous owner until his owner seemed to be the best person in the world and the only one in history that no one could ever compare to. It sounded even more mystical than novels. What, a casual punch with a stretch of his hand and even battles.h.i.+ps fell before him? How could it possibly be any more exaggerated?

After chatting the whole day, the cabin darkened. This was hinting that it was time to sleep. w.a.n.g Zheng shut his eyes and counted the little sheep that appeared in his head. One, two… as he counted, the sheep became Aina. There were so many Ainas, and they all listened to him. One was thrown at the royal family to be their princess and queen, one accompanied him to the ends of earth, touring the whole of the Milky Way, and then they even did various embarra.s.sing lovey dovey things…

Suddenly, a blus.h.i.+ng Aina became a skeleton head!

F**k, Bonehead! w.a.n.g Zheng instantly woke up in shock from his dream

The empty eye sockets were gleaming, and it was when he was having a good dream that he appeared!

But at the next second, w.a.n.g Zheng had forgotten his good dream because he realized that Bonehead was actually as big as a mech. And he had actually planted himself on something that looked exactly like the Rubik’s Cube.

Charcoal appeared and was checking Bonehead’ situation. “Initial integration is complete. Progress is at 15%. Integration rate is at 71.59%…”

w.a.n.g Zheng pointed at huge Bonehead. “Don’t tell me you want to implant yourself into a mech and give it to me?”

“Yes. This is the Gideon energy and material integration technique…” Bonehead’s skeleton eye sockets flashed twice. A perfectly good piece of high-end technology was described so nonchalantly. Bonehead was also an artificial intelligence who had a… temper.

After Charcoal had appeared, they kept arguing about who was of greater help to w.a.n.g Zheng. Charcoal was, in many ways, more suitable than Bonehead in compatibility with this sub-universe’s rules. Even the Primordial Regression Technique had been adapted to fit the universe. Bonehead really gave it his all this time. He wanted to integrate himself into an undefeatable super mech and help his highness revive his country. He was the real first helper, and not Charcoal, who was an invader who had occupied Bonehead’s home.

w.a.n.g Zheng did not understand that long, technical term “Gideon Energy and Material Integration Technique”, and at the moment, he was not interested in understanding it either. He pointed at the huge skeletal frame. “Please don’t tell me you are growing a mech that is based on how you look.”

That would be too scary! It seriously did not match w.a.n.g Zheng’s aesthetic tastes. His dream was to pilot the universe’s coolest mech and ride it through the Milky Way. A hero needed an image to match.

If he changed to piloting a sinister-looking skeleton… w.a.n.g Zheng shook his head and shook away this image. Even if he was undefeatable, it would still feel as though he was no better than a pirate.

w.a.n.g Zheng just smiled and said that he was boasting, and then continued to complain that the growing mech was too frightening and not handsome. Piloting it would bring him no satisfaction.

Charcoal’s eyes lit up like a 1,000 watt light bulb. “I told you, Master’s taste is very high-cla.s.s. Bonehead is so ugly. Look at me, so boxy, so symmetrical. I’m the embodiment of perfection!”

“Can you change the looks halfway? I think that the Phantom King looks good, how about you refer to its appearance?” w.a.n.g Zheng got more curious. This mech-growing technology was a little amazing.

Bonehead and Charcoal were on the same side this time and rejected him together. “No, you can’t use it. You can only use either one of us to be the model.”

This mech was either going to look like a skeleton like Bonehead, or it was going to look like Charcoal…

w.a.n.g Zheng hugged his head in frustration. He gave up. Skeleton was still the better look. At least a skeleton could scare people. He could have a cool, fierce image. Charcoal was so ugly, what look could he go for? The short and ugly look? Without even fighting, he would cause his opponents to die of laughter first.

Bonehead was still muttering to himself. This was not just a simple case of something “growing”, it was Gideon energy and material integration… followed by a long string of terms. w.a.n.g Zheng could not really understand fully.

Luckily, most of the time, Bonehead was focused on “growing” and the time he had to communicate with w.a.n.g Zheng became lesser and lesser.

Charcoal became w.a.n.g Zheng’s confidante. But when it came to training methods, Charcoal was not able to provide more ways to train. It was not that he did not know, but it was because he could not tell. This guy was secretive and mysterious. Sometimes he would reveal some vague theory.

w.a.n.g Zheng’s understanding was that the stronger his spiritual power, the greater his Ability X. The road that he was now taking was one that no one had taken before. There were lots of challenges, it was a b.u.mpy ride and not very smooth sailing, but he was indeed moving forward.

After the battle with Atlantis, w.a.n.g Zheng had his own understanding of spiritual imprints, spiritual explosion, and the removal of a spiritual imprint. However, compared to the Altanteans, his understanding was still too superficial. They won in terms of speed, accuracy and strength. In physical battles, Bonehead had already taught him everything. It seemed like he had to rely on himself in this aspect.

This was one long interstellar trip. The transportation s.h.i.+p did not stop at any place. It flew without stopping in the beta-s.p.a.ce for over 300 hours before jumping out of beta-s.p.a.ce.

After jumping out of beta-s.p.a.ce, there was finally a signal for the Skylink network, except there was a red color restriction symbol behind it. It meant that he could not connect to the interstellar net and could only enter the star’s own network. The signal exchanging machine was actually encrypted here, meaning to say that this Skylink could only receive t.i.tat.i.tan’s signal. News of the outside world was blocked.

Even using his toes to think, he knew that t.i.tat.i.tan was definitely not a good place.

Walking to the transparent cabin window, he could already see a sky blue planet appearing in front of his eyes. It looked a little like Earth. The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was flying towards the planet at a high speed.

Entering the planet’s atmosphere, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p would not stop trembling.

At this moment, w.a.n.g Zheng’s heart suddenly s.h.i.+vered. He sensed danger!

Weng…

At the same time, the escape warning sounded through the transportation s.h.i.+p.

Through the cabin window, an attack craft emerged from the clouds. It was as though it had been waiting there.

Three streaks of fire light lit up. Poison Snake Missiles, cheap and reliable – they had a smart lock-on system. Their pet.i.te size contained huge explosive power. It was the top weapon choice to destroy armed merchant s.h.i.+ps or transportation s.h.i.+ps.

Instantly, every cell in w.a.n.g Zheng came alive. He kicked open the cabin door. At the end of the long corridor was the escape cabin.

With one punch, he broke the protective sh.e.l.l meant to prevent people from pressing the b.u.t.ton mistakenly and pressed down forcefully. The whole process took not more than three seconds only.

The door of the escape cabin opened and w.a.n.g Zheng quickly entered it. Inside was a snow-white anti-collision wall. Its material was the soft anti-explosive, anti-fire soft plastic. At the instant the cabin door automatically yet slowly closed, three Poison Snake Missiles. .h.i.t the transportation s.h.i.+p at shocking speed.

To this small transportation s.h.i.+p with no s.h.i.+elds, these hits were no different from being hit by Beam Cannons. Cheap missiles usually caused greater damage.

In a blink of an eye, the transportation s.h.i.+p was engulfed by the power of the Poison Snake Missiles.

The huge shock wave blew away the escape cabin with a bang. The cabin door which was not closed was like a black hole and sucked out all the items in the rescue capsule.

w.a.n.g Zheng grabbed onto a chair forcefully. His whole person was hanging horizontally in the air because of the suction. w.a.n.g Zheng’s expression darkened. He had not expected that what waited him was actually an ambus.h.!.+

There was no time to think. As for the shock wave, together with the open cabin door, a device at a side lit up a bunch of malfunctioning lights. The oxygen device failed, the signal device failed…

What made w.a.n.g Zheng’s expression change was the red light that lit up for the parachute device. If there was no parachute to decrease speed, the escape cabin was no different from a coffin.

w.a.n.g Zheng suddenly let go. The strong wind pressure instantly sucked him towards the cabin door. At the moment he was going to be sucked out, w.a.n.g Zheng reached out and grabbed the cabin door handle. His legs stepped onto both sides forcefully, resisting the strong pressure.

The cabin door’s manual hatch was opened. w.a.n.g Zheng tried his best before he managed to close the cabin door. The pressure finally stabilized, but the danger was still there. He had to open the parachute.

Rus.h.i.+ng to the parachute control device, he cut opened the protective cover of the outer layer. A charred smell immediately rushed out. The whole control chip was burnt.

Di di di…

The height detection device of the rescue capsule was actually still working. At this moment, its irritating alarm sounded. He was only 8,000 meters above ground, and this number was decreasing.

6,500 meters… 5,000 meters…

4,000 meters!

Manually controlling the parachute, sweat dripped from w.a.n.g Zheng’s head.

Ka cha, at 3,000 meters above ground, the giant parachute finally opened.
