Chapter 77: A Heavy Blow
From the moment they left the base, they were already on the battlefield!
Wei Fenghua said this sentence.
Not only shook Ling Cheng to his core.
It also made the students in the command center feel a jolt in their hearts.
Including Ling Cheng.
Many of them still haven’t fully adjusted psychologically.
Not being on the battlefield themselves.
They thought it was just a test.
A test held outside the school.
But now.
Wei Fenghua made it clear to them.
Since they were on the battlefield.
Don’t just talk about the mecha being destroyed, the energy furnace being taken.
Even if they die in battle, it’s just a small matter.
Probably know what the students are thinking.
After a few coughs, Wei Fenghua said, "Of course, me and the other teachers will do our best to ensure your safety."
"After all, the main purpose of this test is to let you experience what it feels like to fight on the battlefield ahead of time."
"Not to actually push you out to die."
"But remember, even with us here, accidents could still happen."
"So you need to stay alert, change your mindset and thinking, and not treat this test as a game."
Ling Cheng then asked, "Teacher, what should we do next?"
"We only have one mecha left."
Wei Fenghua said, "You’ll have to figure it out yourselves."
"We can’t have the judges step in for you."
"Fighting with the judges would be no different from picking on kids and running to adults when you lose, right?"
Ling Cheng felt his face getting hot and said with a red face, "I didn’t mean that."
Wei Fenghua cleared his throat and said, "The energy furnace and mecha were stolen, you can get them back."
"You can also contact Second Grade Group A and see how they handled it."
"That’s all I can say, the rest is up to you."
End of communication.
Ling Cheng looked around at his classmates, sighed, and said, "Let’s contact the second graders first."
"See how they deal with this situation."
Second Grade Group A.
Liu Ruohan came out of the mecha cockpit.
Yesterday, Yang Likai spent 700,000 work points to buy back the ‘Orange Cat’ energy furnace.
As a result, the Engineering Department worked through the night.
Finally, they installed the energy furnace back and completed the testing.
So, today.
They sent out three mechas together.
They successfully defeated the giant beast ‘Quru’ and earned 2,000 credits.
Now, they have the same score as First Grade Group B.
They are 400 credits behind the leading First Grade Group A.
They walked into the command center.
Liu Ruohan heard classmates talking about something.
Then Yang Likai ran over excitedly and said, "Classmate Liu, guess what happened this morning?"
He didn’t beat around the bush.
He went straight to it, "Last night, in first grade Group B, they not only defeated Group A."
"This morning, Classmate Luo not only retaliated by defeating Group B’s giant beast."
"He also took one of their mechas and the energy furnace from another mecha."
Liu Ruohan was surprised.
Especially when she heard Luo Yan took someone else’s energy furnace again.
A small twitch appeared at the corner of her mouth uncontrollably.
Is this guy addicted to stealing the energy furnace?
Go on.
She felt much better again.
Look.
I’m not the only one who got their energy furnace stolen.
At that moment, a student walked over and handed a communicator to Yang Likai, "Someone from the first grade is looking for you."
Yang Likai took it, feeling annoyed at being interrupted while talking to his crush, he asked grumpily, "Who is it?"
"Are you Senior Yang Likai?"
"I’m Shen Yu from the first grade."
"I want to ask, how did you get back the energy furnace that Luo Yan stole?"
Yang Likai listened intently.
Instantly, he smiled.
It turned out they came to seek his advice.
This made him feel very proud.
He then cheerfully said, "Easy."
"I bought it back from him with 700,000 work points."
Inside the command center of First Grade Group B.
Suddenly, Shen Yu stood frozen in place as if in shock.
Ling Cheng frowned and asked, "How do you say ‘second grade’ in English?"
Shen Yu finally came back to his senses.
He put down the communication device.
Looking at his classmates, he said, "Senior Yang mentioned that he personally paid for and redeemed the energy furnace from Classmate Luo using work points."
"He spent 700,000."
The entire command center was as silent as a grave.
After a while.
Ling Cheng finally exclaimed, "How much? 700,000?"
"He didn’t go to rob!"
"I don’t have 700,000 to redeem the energy furnace?"
Shen Yu smiled sadly, "I’m afraid redeeming ‘Rain Swallow’ will be even more expensive."
Ling Cheng held his head, "I can’t even redeem the energy furnace, let alone ‘Rain Swallow’."
"What should we do?"
"Should we go and steal it back?"
Shen Yu looked troubled, "We only have one mecha left."
……
Thump.
Li Zi fell onto the soft grass lawn.
She stood up.
She looked at Luo Yan standing on her mecha ‘Rain Swallow’.
That figure.
It was so unattainable!
She gritted her teeth and said, "Classmate Luo, even if you don’t return my mecha to me, at least give me a ride back to the camp!"
"If you leave me here, what if we encounter a giant beast?"
Luo Yan completely ignored her.
According to his understanding.
He only steals mecha for himself.
No one was killed.
That was already enough to make her feel better.
As for how she would go back…
Luo Yan didn’t care.
When they returned to the driver’s seat, Luo Yan drove the ‘Rain Swallow’ straight to the high-speed rail camp.
On the way back.
Luo Yan couldn’t help but smile.
Remembering the past.
When on the surface.
Every time finding food and medicine in the ruins.
His mood is like it is now.
Full, joyful, happy.
Today.
Not only did he get his revenge.
He also took an energy furnace and stole a mecha.
An energy furnace can be sold for 700,000 work points.
What about the mecha?
That will definitely be a very attractive number.
Just the thought of more work points coming into his account soon.
Even someone as cold-hearted as he.
Felt cheerful at this moment.
He was even considering.
After getting ‘Rain Swallow’ back from the people in Group B.
Should he try stealing it back again?
Or maybe, a few more times?
After a moment.
The high-speed rail station camp.
Early in the morning, Li Bohang and the others received a message that the black and white painted ‘Rain Swallow’ could be seen in the distance.
They still felt a surreal sensation.
In the live test to grab a mecha, perhaps only someone like Luo Yan, a ‘Natural Resonator’, could manage it.
Before long.
Luo Yan emerged from the cockpit, ready to head back to the TV Tower and bring back the ‘White Dragon’ as well.
Li Bohang approached and asked, "Classmate Luo, what are you planning to do with this energy furnace and mecha?"
Luo Yan firmly said, "Sell them!"
Li Bohang chuckled and pushed his glasses up, "I had a feeling you’d say that."
"But have you thought about it?"
"In Group A of Second Grade, Yang Likai’s dad is the boss of the Construction Bureau, and Liu Ruohan’s older sister is also wealthy."
"So they could easily redeem the energy furnace."
"But from what I know, the students in Group B of First Grade all come from average families."
"Forget about the mecha."
"They probably can’t even afford an energy furnace."
Luo Yan suddenly looked up.
He had never considered this before.
Suddenly, he felt a big blow.
