Chapter 2675 [C·E·7·Special Grade Assault Mobile Weapon]

Valhalla Ascension Fortress, Lower Level, Teleportation Hall

"Fuck!"

Almost as soon as everyone regained their vision after a moment of disorientation, Cordova, who hadn't felt any dizziness from the teleportation due to his physical condition, let out a shrill, piercing, hoarse, hysterical scream, like a pig being slaughtered: "Gundam!!!"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Tan was first taken aback, then subconsciously looked around. She then gasped. Although she managed to steady herself with her strong willpower and physical coordination and did not stumble, her eyes widened into vertical pupils in shock, and she let out a muffled groan filled with excitement and amazement.

That's right, around this exceptionally spacious teleportation hall, which is more like a super-large hangar than a hall, stand seven or eight visually striking behemoths!

In terms of appearance, just as Cordova exclaimed involuntarily, these angular, heavy-looking "steel giants," which look like weapons of war from any angle, perfectly fit the modern definition of "Gundam."

If the [Ninth Generation Agricultural Engineering Mech - Codename: Gou Sheng] that Cordova piloted in the [Inquiry and Debate - Individual Battle], a machine that was over 500 centimeters tall, looked very sturdy, and was ultimately dismantled into parts by Ji Xiaoge, was a 'romantic' machine that could make professional players like Xinglong and Guoshi Wushuang forget about the competition and technical analysis, and drool with envy, then the things around everyone at this moment are 'super-type' machines that can make even someone like 'Mo' feel dizzy and excited to the point of being breathless!
Ultimately, for Gundam experts like Guijianchou and Huoyanyang, while the Cordova [Ninth Generation Agricultural Engineering Mech - Codename: Gousheng] could give them an adrenaline rush, it still didn't live up to the name 'Gundam'. In fact, even just looking at its appearance, the Cordova agricultural robot was more like a general-purpose, low-cost mobile suit like the 'Zaku', rather than a top-tier model that was positioned from the ground up as a 'technology demonstrator' or 'ace machine'.

If the Córdovana Tezaku (?) symbolizes Ruvi Fitzgerald's strong military industrial foundation and Tianzhushan's powerful technological capabilities in the agricultural field, then these mechs in Valhalla's [Teleportation Hall] represent the upper limit of technology and the ultimate individual heroism!
Putting everything else aside, these mechs, which are about 1,800 centimeters tall but have a sleek and compact build, even have cannons on their backs that look like clotheslines, that are almost as heavy as the agricultural mech in Cordoba, which is only a little over 500 centimeters tall.

"Wang?"

While wagging its tail, Yaya pulled Jadka, whose physical abilities were now comparable to those of an average old man, causing him to stumble, and asked curiously, "What do you mean, 'da'?"

"Hmm, I don't know either."

Jadka grimaced and rubbed his arm, which had been scratched by the dog-girl, then took a deep breath, looked up at the imposing and powerful robots around him, his expression stiff yet ferocious, a hint of excitement mixed with envy, and a large part of longing. His voice trembled slightly as he said, "But even though I don't know what these things are, they're really... kind of cool!"

"Wang?"

Ya Ya blinked, tilted its head in confusion as it looked at the giant robots, and muttered, "I can't tell if they're woofy or not, but they're pretty big."

"No, no, no, Sister Dog, you don't understand."

Wang Badan muttered to himself as he stretched his neck to its limit, staring longingly at the steel giants. He exclaimed, "It's not about size, it's about... damn, this is fucking awesome!"

Ya Ya glanced at Wang Ba Dan, then turned to Ji Xiao Ge: "Sister Wang Ge, I don't quite understand."

"It's normal that you don't understand. Even someone like me who has personally built large mechs doesn't really understand what these guys are thinking."

Ji Xiaoge shrugged and smiled at Gu Xiaole beside her, "Sister Xiaole, do you feel the same way...?"

"すごい!"

The beautiful female Onmyoji had already lifted her face almost parallel to the ground, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "Subarashii!!!"

"Uh……"

Ji Xiaoge scratched her head, looking at Xiao Le's reaction—a bit as pathetic as Mo Tan, Jadka, and Wang Badan's—excited to the point of being unable to control herself, and muttered with a sense of frustration, "Well, it seems that Xiao Le's channel is aligned with these idiots."

"cough."

Just then, Mo Tan, who was the first to regain her senses, took two steps back and stood side by side with Ji Xiaoge, and said with a smile, "This thing is indeed quite visually striking, it startled me."

"Hmph~ I think what you're saying is more than just being startled."

Ji Xiaoge wrinkled her nose, then walked with a grin to a device located in the center of the [Teleportation Hall], and skillfully scanned it with the [Valkyrie Beacon Stone] in her hand.

hum-

The next instant, accompanied by a barely perceptible buzzing sound, the control panel-like device immediately broke its silence. After several visible runes of energy flashed across it, it suddenly lit up, projecting dozens of windows floating in mid-air in front of Ji Xiaoge.

"Buzz—!?"

Upon hearing the buzzing sound, the badminton shuttlecock, which had been huddled near Mo Tan's collar during the teleportation process, immediately 'woke up' from its dazed state. After emitting a series of buzzing sounds, it quickly rose into the air, and then, as if having a seizure, it darted around wildly at an unbelievable speed that no one but Ya Ya could keep up with. It then stopped dizzily on Mo Tan's shoulder, paused for a few seconds, and then continued to dart around, only to return to Mo Tan's shoulder again, repeating the cycle.

"Fuck."

Wang Ba Dan was shocked and exclaimed in astonishment, "This ball is insane!?"

"I feel like I'm just too excited."

Mo Tan gently poked the shuttlecock that had just wobbled back onto his shoulder and chuckled, "But it's understandable. It must have stayed in this Ascension Fortress for a long time. Although this isn't its usual upper area, it is indeed the same fortress, which is why it's so happy."

Wang Badan rolled his eyes and said with a forced smile, "I think this thing is just acting crazy."

"Om-"

In the blink of an eye, the badminton shuttlecock flew with lightning speed to within 0.1mm of Wang Badan's forehead, startling him so much that he quickly pulled his head back into his shell before flying triumphantly back to Mo Tan's ear, swaying back and forth as if showing off.

"Deserved it."

Mo Tan glanced at Wang Badan, then gently poked the buzzing badminton shuttlecock and said softly, "Don't be too naughty."

"Mo-chan..."

Gu Xiaole turned to Mo Tan speechlessly and shook her head, saying, "You'll definitely become a doting father to your daughter in the future."

"Do not."

Mo Tan, who clearly understood what Gu Xiaole meant, shook his head vigorously and said seriously, "I didn't treat him differently. It's just that Wang Badan has proven that ordinary educational methods simply don't work for him."

Gu Xiaole smiled and raised an eyebrow, saying, "But Little Feather is also very naughty."

"Ah."

Mo Tan nodded slightly and said softly, "But it has been cooped up in the Ascension Fortress for so long, it must be very boring. It's normal for it to be more lively, and it's a good thing."

"Is it possible that I've also been trapped inside an eggshell for a very, very long time?" Wang Badan's resentful voice came from inside the shell.

"..."

Mo Tan twitched the corner of her mouth, pretending not to hear.

"Pfft."

Gu Xiaole couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckled, "I thought Mo-chan must be the kind of person who is very fair and impartial, tsk tsk, I never expected you to be this kind of dad!"

"I think I'm a pretty fair person..."

Mo Tan replied somewhat weakly, his expression subtle.

Clearly, he seemed to realize that there was a slight difference in his attitude towards Wang Badan and Xiao Yumo, but in Mo Tan's opinion, this difference was entirely Wang Badan's own fault. In other words, if this bastard hadn't been so obnoxious, so cheap, so malicious, and so shameless, he would definitely have been a good father.

【wrong! 】

Mo Tan suddenly came to his senses and said with a wry smile, "I was never really a father to begin with!"

"What father?"

Just then, Ji Xiaoge flapped her wings and flew back, asking curiously, "Mo, what did you say about father?"

Gu Xiaole immediately answered, "Mo Jiang said he will definitely become a good father in the future!"

"Huh? A good father? Whose?"

Ji Xiaoge was taken aback at first, then immediately turned to look at Mo Tan, anxiously asking repeatedly, "Who are you going to be a good father to? Who is the child's mother?!"

"Hey, hey, hey, pigeon, calm down a bit."

Mo Tan, both amused and exasperated, lightly chopped Ji Xiaoge on the head and said irritably, "Sister Xiaole is joking, I haven't even thought about such a thing."

"Huh? You didn't even think about it?"

Ji Xiaoge paused for a moment, then lowered her eyes with a somewhat subtle expression and muttered softly, "I...I have thought about that a little bit, um, maybe even a little bit?"

Mo Tan: "Uh..."

Gu Xiaole: "Pfft—"

"Ahem! Let's not talk about this anymore, let's not talk about this anymore!"

Ji Xiaoge coughed awkwardly, then used the permissions she had just unlocked to project a semi-transparent screen filled with gibberish-like text onto everyone's screen. She then casually pulled down her goggles and asked, "You're all very interested in these big robots, right?"

Apart from Ya Ya, everyone, including Wang Badan, nodded vigorously, their eyes exceptionally bright.

"Alright, alright, then I'll give you a brief introduction to this thing. Hmm, luckily this type of writing is the kind that my goggles can recognize, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to do anything about it."

Ji Xiaoge chuckled, then cleared his throat and turned to the screen in front of him, reading aloud as he looked at it; "This thing is called the [C·E·7·Special Assault Combat Mobile Weapon]. It is 1,833 centimeters tall and weighs 75.8 tons in general units. Wow, it's a huge thing."

Gu Xiaole rubbed his hands excitedly and said with great enthusiasm, "Great stuff! This is definitely great stuff! Can we open it?"

I'm absolutely certain it can be done!

Cordova, standing next to him, excitedly pumped his fist and exclaimed, "Think about it! The agricultural mech I rode in before, although it was over five meters tall, was a special piece of equipment that only kobold-man sized machines could ride in. But this thing is a full eighteen meters tall! What does eighteen meters mean? Even if we assume that a kobold-man needs a five-meter-tall mech, the cockpit is spacious enough for three kobold-men stacked on top of each other!"

Having neither watched "The Debate on Guilt" nor witnessed the "Ninth Generation Agricultural Engineering Mech - Codename: Dog's Leftovers," Jadka stroked his beard and asked, "So?"

"So things are simple now!"

A [()] emoji appeared on Cordova's CRT monitor, and he shouted loudly, "AlphaGo is about 70 centimeters tall. Three of them stacked together would be 2.1 meters. If that's the case, not to mention people like you guys with average builds like Mo and my old friend, even a tough guy like me could easily sit in one and dominate the battlefield!"

"Um……"

Jadka, who shouldn't be going crazy with Córdoba, hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Although I may not be that interested, it would be a good thing to have the opportunity to sit inside and experience it."

"I fucking want to become human! I fucking want to become human!"

Knowing perfectly well that no matter how specialized the cockpit of this machine was, it was absolutely unsuitable for a turtle to pilot, Wang Badan stomped his foot and glared at Mo Tan with bloodshot eyes, shouting, "Big brother, can you hurry up and advance to Legendary rank?! If you advance to Legendary rank, my advancement to Epic rank will be much easier! Once I reach Epic rank, I should be able to transform into a human!"

"You better behave yourself. I haven't even gotten to the Epic level yet, how could I possibly be thinking about the Legendary level? Instead of hoping for that, you should work hard and see if you can get to the Epic level or something sooner."

Without turning her head, Mo Tan retorted to Wang Badan, her eyes fixed on the nearest [C·E·7·Special Assault Combat Mobile Weapon], muttering to herself, "This kind of mecha should be a 'vehicle' rather than a weapon, right? That way, even if I try it out a little, [Xiao's] proficiency shouldn't be affected..."

"that--"

Just then, Ji Xiaoge, whose face had turned somewhat pale, suddenly interrupted Mo Tan and said softly, "If I'm not mistaken, these mobile weapons are not the vehicles that the mentor led the creation of."

Cordova rolled his eyes: "Of course, that old bastard Ruvi made agricultural mechs, this is a weapon of war."

"No... I mean, this thing is not a 'vehicle'."

"Huh? Not a vehicle? Then what is it?"

"It is a special type of exoskeleton."

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Yes, the problem is... very big."
