Chapter 52 – Fuck, It’s a Level 2!!
Each of the shadows that appeared in the tunnel was nearly two meters tall.
The puppets had long arms and legs, and had smooth glossy surfaces. Other than a pair of eyes that glowed with a faint red light, it had no facial features.
They were made of an unknown dark yellow alloy, with thick rubber covers on their joints, giving them an incredibly heavy and sturdy feeling of security.
Of course, if there was a black mass standing in front of you, it would be very difficult to deal with them. This sense of security instantly turned into a sense of oppression.
The teenagers from Qingyuan City were the same.
They all had unsightly expressions on their faces, even Lin Shaoyu was the same. They looked like they had chewed on a fly.
“Even the weakest of the mechanical puppets is stronger than a Level 1 Martial Artist. There are so many of them here. Is the training camp trying to kill us?”
“Fuck! This place is so cramped there’s nowhere to run!”
“What should I do …” Although he had detected them in his spiritual perception, Lu Sheng still felt a little strange looking at them standing in front of him.
The mechanical puppets were actually a kind of martial arts puppets named after the mechanical wooden puppets that were popular in the ancient martial arts era.
It was the product of the combination of modern technology and martial arts.
The bodies of these mechanical puppets were completely manufactured by modern industry, but their brains were stored with all kinds of high-level programs that contained all kinds of martial arts moves.
Once it was activated, it could display the combat power of an official martial artist.
Lu Sheng had only seen such things on television before.
Some wealthy families would purchase these mechanical puppets as bodyguards, and some high-class academies would use these mechanical puppets as sparring partners.
It was said that the highest grade mechanical puppet was comparable to a Level 4 Martial Artist, but the cost of producing one was much higher than the cost of nurturing a Level 4 Martial Artist.
This was the first time Lu Sheng had seen such a high-end product, so he couldn’t help but be curious. He moved closer to take a closer look.
“Idiot!”
Lin Shaoyu, who saw this scene from behind, revealed a speechless expression. He said, “This country bumpkin from Baihe has probably never seen a mechanical puppet before. These mechanical puppets that have their restrictions lifted would immediately attack once they sensed a moving object approaching.
“A Level 1 Mechanical Puppet made from a special alloy, and its fists were extremely hard. A single punch could cause a Level 1 Martial Artist to bleed internally.
“A Level 1 Mechanical Puppet, made from special alloy, have extremely hard fists and body. A single punch can cause a Level 1 Martial Artist to bleed internally.
“This brat isn’t even a Level 1 Martial Artist, yet he still dares to stick his head out. I reckon he’s going to get a concussion …”
The others were looking at him in schadenfreude, as if they were awaiting a good show.
Only the sweet-looking girl had a worried expression. She opened her mouth, wanting to warn Lu Sheng, but was afraid of attracting the attention of the mechanical puppets.
Just as Lin Shaoyu said, Lu Sheng took two steps forward.
The red light in the eyes of the two mechanical puppets flashed, and they raised their fists at the same time, fiercely striking towards him.
“Hmph …”
Lin Shaoyu crossed his arms in front of his chest, a mocking look on his face.
Previously, when Lu Sheng called him cattle, he was worried that he would not be able to teach Lu Sheng a lesson. Now that Lu Sheng was in trouble, he was happier than anyone else.
“Be careful!”
The sweet-looking girl couldn’t help but cry out.
Just when everyone thought they were about to see a horrible scene, what happened in the next second made them all widen their eyes.
Bang!
Bang!
There were two muffled sounds.
Two dark alloy fists the size of bowls were firmly grasped by a fair and slender hand, one on the left and one on the right.
During this process, Lu Sheng’s body did not even sway or waver.
“He actually … actually caught it …”
The youths from Qingyuan City had an incredulous expression on their faces.
Lin Shaoyu, who had his arms crossed, was also stunned. He suddenly stood up straight, wondering if he had seen wrongly.
Level 1 Mechanical Puppets had alloy skin and iron skeletal system, and their CPI was close to 1000. They also had basic martial arts techniques inbuilt in to them, and in actual combat, they could completely crush most Level 1 Martial Artists.
Even some Level 2 martial artists might not be able to suppress them.
After all, they were machines, not humans, and would not get tired or hurt.
Although Lin Shaoyu had always been very confident, he knew that he would never dare to directly receive fist of a Level 1 Mechanical Puppet.
With the obvious difference in strength, wouldn’t he be looking for a beating?
But now, he actually saw a student from Baihe City who had entered through connections, and whose strength had not even reached Level 1 …
He had actually used his palms to receive the full-powered attacks of the puppet head-on.
This scene was even more shocking than seeing the old man selling crêpes downstairs suddenly jump three meters into the air and transform into a martial arts expert.
Just when Lin Shaoyu and the youths from Qingyuan City were in a daze, an even more shocking scene occurred.
Creak-creak!
A teeth-numbing sound of straining machines rang out.
The youths widened their eyes as they watched.
The arms of the two mechanical puppets were slowly being lifted by a pair of fair palms.
Because the mechanical parts clashed with the program’s instructions, the joints of the mechanical puppets’ arms emitted large amounts of sparks, accompanied by ear-piercing sounds.
“What the—” Someone’s mouth was wide open as he let out an incredulous cry. “This guy has a strength greater than a Level 1 Mechanical Puppet … Is he still human?”
The others were also shocked, and could not find the words to describe their feelings.
The sweet-looking girl had already covered her mouth with her hands, and her round eyes were filled with shock and astonishment.
“Hahaha …”
At this time, a peal of laughter suddenly rang out.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, and saw Lin Shaoyu laughing loudly. He shook his head and said self-deprecatingly, “I was almost fooled by the people from the training camp.
“How are these Level 1 Mechanical Puppets? They are clearly underperforming products that are not even Level 1. Their actual CPI is far from a real Level 1, and they are only trying to bluff us through their stature …
“This should be the case, if there were truly so many Level 1 Mechanical Puppets here, how could anyone clear the test!”
Lin Shaoyu pointed at Lu Sheng, who was still calm as he stopped the two mechanical puppets, causing sparks to fly everywhere. With an exaggerated expression, he shouted at everyone, “Do you guys really think that this guy, who took a backdoor entry to the camp, and isn’t even a Level 1 Martial Artist could withstand the attacks of two Level 1 Mechanical Puppets, simultaneously?”
The youths blinked their eyes, and their expressions were a little confused. It was obvious that they could not follow Lin Shaoyu’s train of thought.
“Forget it, it’s hard to explain to a bunch of idiots like you …” Lin Shaoyu waved his hand in defeat, and slowly moved forward.
“If you don’t understand, then open your eyes wide and watch how I clear the test.”
Lin Shaoyu flicked his hair, and suddenly sped up, and then confidently rushed towards the two mechanical puppets in front of him.
Lin Shaoyu’s figure was as fast as an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of the two mechanical puppets.
The eyes of the two mechanical puppets that were silent suddenly glowed red.
At the same time, they punched out.
Bam!
A figure suddenly flew back, and with a “Bam” and heavily smashed into the innermost wall.
Lin Shaoyu’s body slowly slid down the wall like a rag cloth, and his expression twitched. He slowly raised a hand as if he wanted to grab something.
“Fuck … This is not a Level 1 Mechanical Puppet, it’s … it’s a fucking Level 2!” After saying this, Lin Shaoyu’s head dropped, and he directly fainted.
The others saw everything that happened in a flash, and their mouths started to open bit by bit, and their expressions were so shocked that they could not say a word.
