Just like that, Qin Yue began to look through the hundreds of mecha.

When Qin Yue arrived at the deepest part of the mecha hangar, his gaze suddenly landed on a mecha that was covered in a thick layer of dust.

It was obvious that this mecha was covered in dust and had not been used for a long time.

Qin Yue only took a glance and was unconsciously attracted to it.

Unconsciously, Qin Yue walked forward and stretched out his hand to touch it.

Just at the moment of contact, a voice seemed to appear in Qin Yue’s subconscious.

This voice kept echoing in Qin Yue’s mind, telling him that he had to choose this mecha in front of him.

And after Qin Yue raised his head to take a look, he also discovered the uniqueness of this mecha!

Assault type mecha, Devastator type mecha, High-speed type mecha, Defensive type mecha. Those were the four types of mecha.

They could either be identified at a glance, wielding strong firepower, or the mecha’s body being slightly shorter, making the entire mecha look very light or heavy.

However, it was very difficult to tell the characteristics of that particular mecha. It was very obvious that it was a very special model.

“System, scan the basic information of this mecha.”

[ Ding! Scan successful! ]

[ The interface has been refreshed. Host, please take a look at it yourself! ]

In the span of one breath, the blueish silver screen in front of Qin Yue changed once again.

The basic information of the mecha in front of her was also reflected in her eyes.

[ Flashing Star Mecha (currently at Bodyguard Mecha strength) : Comprehensive Note: The Mecha has a flaw ]

[ Mecha model: XT1-Sky Hunter ]

[ Mecha height: 30 meters ]

[ Basic strength: 27]

[ Basic speed: 27]

[ Basic defense: 27]

[ Basic firepower: 27]

[ Tonnage: 400 tons ]

[ Mental Strength level: 20 points — 50 points ]

Looking at the mecha in front of him, Qin Yue was instantly stunned.

“This… Flashing Star Mecha, why would it appear here?

“What’s are the flaws?

“A Flashing Star Mecha… But why is it only currently rated at Bodyguard Mecha level?”

One question after another appeared in Qin Yue’s mind, causing him to be puzzled.

After thinking for a while, Qin Yue still could not understand.

However, for things that he could not understand, Qin Yue would not waste too much time pondering on them.

However, there was one thing that he understood very clearly, and that was that this mecha was the mecha that he had always dreamed of!

It was a Composite Mecha, a combination of Assault-type, High-speed-type, Defensive-type, Devastator-type. It inherited its advantages and was an all-rounder.

Although the system’s interface indicated that it had flaws, it could still be considered a perfect existence!

After Qin Yue’s excited heart calmed down slightly, he could not help but feel puzzled.

Logically speaking, a Composite Mecha with such a high level should be the type that everyone dreamed of.

Yet why was such a powerful mecha piled up at the corner and eating dust?

As he spoke, Qin Yue came to the front of the mecha and extended a finger to gently wipe the mecha’s body.

However, the dust was too thick. After wiping it again, the outer shell of the mecha was still not visible.

“How long has this been here? It actually accumulated up such a thick layer of dust!” Qin Yue said with a surprised expression.

For a moment, Qin Yue could not help but develop a strong interest in this mecha!

At the same time…

While Qin Yue was developing a strong curiosity towards that special mecha, the other students had all chosen a mecha that was suitable for them.

After taking stock of the people, Wang Yangming muttered in puzzlement.

“Huh?”

“This Brat Qin Yue hasn’t chosen one yet?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yangming looked around, looking for Qin Yue’s figure.

After a few breaths, Wang Yangming found Qin Yue’s figure in a corner of the mecha hangar.

“This brat, what is he doing?”

Just as he finished speaking, Wang Yangming suddenly noticed the mecha that was covered in dust in front of Qin Yue.

Moreover, Qin Yue’s gaze seemed to have been sizing up this mecha as well.

Wang Yangming had been in this mecha academy for decades, so he was extremely familiar with the origins of that particular mecha.

However, it was precisely because he was too familiar with the origins of this mecha, as well as knowing how unique it was, that an uneasy thought crossed Wang Yangming’s mind.

‘Could it be that he’s going to choose that mecha?’

Wang Yangming swallowed his saliva, and a worried expression appeared on his face.

“No, Qin Yue is a student that I have set my eyes on. I can not let him be destroyed by that mecha!

“I have to ask him. If he really is going to choose that mecha, that would be terrible!”

As he spoke, Wang Yangming walked quickly towards Qin Yue’s position.

Very quickly, Wang Yangming stood behind Qin Yue and hurriedly asked.

“Qin Yue, which mecha did you choose?”

Hearing teacher Wang’s voice behind him, Qin Yue turned around and replied.

Qin Yue pointed at Sky Hunter and said with a resentful expression, “Teacher, I’m choosing this one, but it seems to have been eating dust for many years.”

Following the direction that Qin Yue pointed to, Wang Yangming was already very sure that Qin Yue had chosen that mecha!

“Hu~”

Wang Yangming took a deep breath and tried his best to calm his emotions before trying to persuade him.

“Qin Yue, do you trust me?”

Qin Yue did not even think before replying, “You are my mentor, so I naturally trust you.”

Hearing his reply, Wang Yangming could not help but heave a sigh of relief. If this was the case, it would be easier for him to persuade Qin Yue to give up on that mecha.

“That’s good then…

“Other than this one, you have to choose another model!”

Qin Yue looked at Wang Yangming’s solemn expression. It was not hard to see the clues.

However, it only made Qin Yue more curious about that mecha.

“Teacher, what exactly is the story behind this mecha? Please tell me!

“Otherwise, there will a knot in my heart that will be very difficult to untangle!”

Qin Yue was such a good seedling. Wang Yangming really did not want him to drive Sky Hunter to the desolate star to die.

He could only explain the reason for this mecha to Qin Yue so that she would give up.

“Thirty years ago, our Mukda Federation government fought against a powerful family, the Clemont Family. We even fought a battle against them that lasted an entire year.”

There were countless conflicts between the two. This conflict had spanned hundreds of years. During this period, the two sides slaughtered each other and committed various atrocities!

In the end, the two sides became existences that would not rest until one of them was dead!

“A large number of War Mecha and Flashing Star Mecha pilots died on both sides. Due to the lack of experienced pilots, there were very few high-end combatants on the battlefield, causing the conflict to grind to a stalemate!”

“It just so happened that during that period, a top-notch mecha manufacturing expert appeared. To resolve the stalemate and lack of experienced pilots, he came up with an extremely crazy idea…

“…

“That is to create a high-level mecha that allowed pilots with lower Mental Strength levels to pilot it in battle!

“At that time, he prepared a large amount of research and successfully convinced the Mukda Federation government to approve his ideas. Just like that, he organized a large number of scientific researchers and expended a large number of the Mukda Federation government’s resources, finally developing the Sky Hunter Mecha!

“After the development was completed, due to the urgent nature of the conflict, a batch of Sky Hunters were created and thrown into the battlefield.

“When Sky Hunter model was sent into the battlefield, everyone thought that the war was about to end. However, contrary to the expectations of this scientist and everyone else, the Sky Hunter had a huge flaw. Although he was at the standard of a Flashing Star Mecha, he could only display the battle prowess of a Bodyguard Mecha.

“Just like that, there was only one mech left in the war, and even it was damaged beyond repair!

“In the end, if it wasn’t for the Mukda Federation government sending out their strongest mech at that time, that battle would have almost destroyed our entire federation!

“After the war, the Sky Hunters were eliminated except for this one, and the research and development staff were sent to the military court to stand trial.

“It has been mothballed in our academy hangar for all these years.

“Of course, many people have tried to revive and perfect the Sky Hunter over the years, but it was all in vain.”

After saying that, Wang Yangming glanced at Qin Yue and said again.

“How about it? Do you still want to choose this model after listening to my story?”
