Chapter 209 - The Strongest Counterattack

The gate of the cockpit closed quickly and the soft light inside was lit up.

Then, the AI electronic voice of MK6 sounded again, “The system is starting to self-test.”

Long Xi became anxious. Why did it still have so many steps? They were already in danger, weren’t they?

Fortunately, they didn’t know why the enemies stopped their onslaught at that moment. For a while, they wouldn’t be under a direct threat.

Long Xi had no choice but to wait for the system to complete the self-test.

“The power system has been checked. There’s nothing wrong. The transmission system has been checked. There’s nothing wrong. The primary weapon has been checked… The left leg has been checked, and the slight damage is six percent…”

SU probably noticed that Long Xi was not unfamiliar with the mech, so she explained to her in a friendly manner, “MK6 must have been slightly damaged under the intensive firepower. Fortunately, a 6% damage doesn’t affect its normal operation.”

After the whole mech was finally checked, another half minute passed.

The MK6 could finally be activated normally.

During that moment, the enemies had refrained from attacking.

The MK6 jumped onto the ice stream while controlled by Mo Kun.

Long Xi suddenly became excited.

“Look at its smooth movement. Look at the primary weapon that just needed an incredibly short time to cool down. Look at the modern cockpit. And look at the human-like artificial intelligence!”

That was invented by her Lord Mo Kun!

She was so happy that her mind was full of joy, and her mood was surging!

Next, it was Lord Mo Kun’s personal performance time!

The Duchess controlled her mech to approach. A low roar came out from the engine, causing a sharp alarm to suddenly sound in Long Xi’s cockpit. “Warning, enemy has activated a thermal weapon, detected at a distance of 34.5 meters, direction, eight o’clock!”

Mo Kun responded immediately. He controlled the arms of the mech, lifting the intelligent alloy shield to resist the attack.

Almost at the same time, a beam of blazing high-energy particles was hitting on the shield, while the top layer of the shield suddenly melted.

The Duchess’ R6 mech rushed over at full speed and was about to approach the MK6 in the blink of an eye.

Long Xi’s heart was suddenly beating faster. She felt nose acetify but couldn’t help wearing a smile.

As long as Mo Kun was with her, she wasn’t afraid of anything. All the obstacles were nonexistent, and all the crises would disappear!

The Duchess’ R6 suddenly rushed toward the MK6!

Was she going to fight head to head? Both sides would suffer great losses!

RU also started his mech at that time. When seeing that the Duchess suddenly rushed toward, he immediately panicked and shouted through the communication device, “Boss, don’t be impulsive! Impulsiveness is a devil! If we can’t defeat MK, we can just give up the payment from that big boss! What if you get hurt? What should we do if you leave us here?”

The Duchess’ name was NA, but she didn’t care about RU’s words at all. Instead, she just giggled.

She couldn’t break through the MK6’s defense for a short while, but the MK6’s pilot was just an 18-year-old teenager!

As long as she held the thought to perish with him together, Mo Kun would be terrified and would retreat when it came to life and death. Once he retreated, she could find his weakness.

When it came to acridity, how could an 18-year-old teenager compare with a Duchess who had survived after life and death struggles all those years? Anyway, she had never cared about her own life.

A brave hero always won the most fierce competition! Only those who were not afraid of death could survive!

The Duchess, who was unafraid of dying, showed her resolution to perish together without hesitation. Her momentum was astonishing, which truly shocked Mo Kun for a minute!

On the right side of the MK6, RU was also driving an R2 mech to support his boss! In the distance, BO also drove an R2 mech, waiting for the right time to take action!

The three mechs were coming at Mo Kun from three different directions. No matter which direction Mo Kun chose to retreat, he would be unable to avoid being attacked.

Not only did he need to confront the enemies in front, but also his side with a weak defense was also directly exposed in front of RU’s mech.

Two seconds at most!

At that critical moment of life and death, even SU, such an excellent student in the military academy, became panicked immediately.

In the past, no matter how dangerous the situation was, no matter how terrified SU was, she would not lose her head.

By contrast, Mo Kun was still sober-minded! His will seemed to be made of steel!

Closing his eyes, he didn’t need to see, to feel, or to listen to the situation outside. He just devoted all his mind to his incomparable calmness.

He ran his mind at an extremely high speed.

Everything about the MK6 from the relation among all the systems and weapon layouts to all the performance parameters, even including the overload power of its knee joints and the time of the heating system to cool down, all of it showed up in Mo Kun’s mind for an instant!

He told himself not to retreat! At that moment, as long as he made a small mistake, not only he but also his comrades-in-arms would die!

“I, Mo Kun, am the mech genius of Planet BT. In terms of mechs, I can’t lose!”

“No matter how complicated the mech’s movements are, I can remember everything after reading once. No matter how complicated the wires of a mech are, I just need to take a look and I can understand them!”

“The mech is like an extension of my body!”

“Yes, I won’t lose!”

Mo Kun opened his eyes, shining with a bright light.

In a rush, NA still steadily held the well-prepared primary weapon. The black muzzle of the high-energy particle gun was pointing at the MK6’s vital part.

As long as she took a shot, even if the MK6 would not turn into gorgeous fireworks, it would definitely become a pile of scrap iron.

A sharp warning from the AI sounded, indicating that the enemy’s thermal weapon started activating, twenty meters away from a nine o’clock direction. Mo Kun took action!

Under his control, the two-meter-high mech was as light as a nimble bird.

The roar of the power engine was suddenly heard, but the Duchess, who had just pulled the trigger, didn’t have time to react. Mo Kun had already controlled the MK6 to lean to one side like a human being, just avoiding his vital parts to be attacked before the high-energy particles reached them.

Long Xi thought at a high speed beyond ordinary people’s imagination, even like a precise computer.

At that high speed, everything seemed to slow down, as if an invisible hand had blocked the clock, slowing down the whole world.

That scene was similar to the classic movement in The Matrix, but the difference was that it was a mech version of it!

At the same time, Mo Kun asked Long Xi to control the secondary power system, who had been standing next to him all the time. Mo Kun always knew that TI was a self-taught mech genius!

Long Xi had to take his orders at the risk of losing her life. She controlled the power source according to TI’s memory.

Then, Mo Kun controlled the shield to resist the attack from one side, blocking the high-energy particles sent by RU’s mech.

Although the shield was half melted and the alarm sounded to warn them that the shield was broken, the mech itself was almost in a good state.

At the time, the MK6’s secondary weapon attacked.

An extremely powerful beam of high-energy particles burst out from the muzzle of the MK6’s secondary weapon, but RU’s R2 didn’t have a defense system similar to the MK6. What was worse, RU himself didn’t have such a good emergency reaction capacity as Mo Kun did.

The primary power system of the R2 mech was pierced, trembling like a drunk man after losing its power. Suddenly, it stumbled and slammed into an icehouse built by a native in the Deep Ice Snowfield, knocking down three more icehouses before it could stop.

Long Xi let out a sigh of relief gently. “My Lord Mo Kun is fantastic. I’ll give you a thousand praises!”

Mo Kun didn’t hesitate to order the MK6 to throw away the broken shield and switched to another primary weapon, shooting at the right knee joint of the Duchess’ R6 with frozen slow-down particles. The accuracy of his shot was so incredible that he seemed to have God’s help.

The R6’s right knee joints suddenly slowed down and its two legs lost balance.

It would be easier to deal with the rest.

The overlord of the sand sea, the boss of Skynet, the Duchess, was like a dog being abused in Long Xi’s hands.

Mo Kun’s calculation capacity was as accurate as a computer. The time to cool down the mech when changing the MK6’s primary and secondary weapons was short, while his movement was as flexible as a jumping rabbit…

In just ten seconds, the Duchess’ R6 mech had become a pile of scrap iron.

The remaining R2 driven by BO didn’t even withstand a round under Mo Kun’s attacks.

Long Xi cheered up! “Sure enough, my Lord Mo Kun won! My Lord Mo Kun has the power to defeat anyone!”

The Duchess confoundedly climbed out of the burning R6 mech, with half of her golden hair burnt.

RU and BO also got out of the ruins with scars on their bodies.

Mo Kun asked the MK6 to shoot at them with the primary weapon.

Skynet members were originally a ragtag group. There was no brotherhood code among them. When others saw that the situation there was wrong, they had already dispersed.

BO immediately knelt down and begged to say, “Please spare my life! We were paid to help people handle affairs and have no enmity or resentment toward you! My wife has just gotten pregnant. Please give me a chance and let me go home!”

The Duchess sneered and said, “BO, who’s your wife? Aren’t you one of my male pets?” She had some guts indeed and didn’t kneel down to beg for mercy.

At the time, RU staggered to walk by her side and used his burly body to cover her.

Long Xi was somewhat moved when she saw RU was willing to sacrifice himself for his beloved one. His face was full of blood but his eyesight was firm.

Was that the so-called true love when one was in trouble?

Unexpectedly, the Duchess shouted, “Get out of my way! Do you think I, the Duchess, need others’ protection?”

RU’s body trembled and a terrifying gaze showed up in his eyes. It was probably because he had gotten used to following his “wife’s” orders for so many years!

However, even though he was frightened, he stubbornly refused to move away!

Mo Kun said, “As long as you tell me who ordered you to catch me, I will let you go!”

The Duchess laughed and said, “Hahaha, who do you think I am? I am the Duchess. I have my professional ethics! Do you think I will leak information about my clients?”
