You said mechs were going to fight monsters, but instead you're destroying stars with your bare

Chapter 189 Anger

The 'spoils' you acquire in each cycle, though they cannot be carried over to the next cycle in physical form, will be 'recorded' by the world in a way that we cannot comprehend.

These recorded 'variables' are gradually eroding the stability of this loop!

"Like a program that keeps accumulating bugs, it will eventually crash completely if there are enough bugs!"

A flame of hope was rekindled in Li Zhe's eyes.

He finally found the way to break this vicious cycle...

key!

"zero!"

His voice was filled with unprecedented decisiveness.

"In that case, then this time..."

"Let's go big!"

"I want to make it in these short eleven days..."

"Empty out the entire training ground!"

……

Crisis Era Year 1, August 20th, noon.

East China Joint Defense Mech University, freshman assembly point.

Looking at the youthful and energetic faces in front of him, Li Zhe felt no longer annoyed or resistant.

Instead, there was an almost cold calm, and an immense anticipation for the upcoming hunt.

This time, he no longer chose to let things take their course, nor did he try to change the "script".

What he needs to do is to firmly control all the "variables" in this exercise in the most efficient and ruthless way possible!
Opening ceremony, group assignments...

Everything was proceeding smoothly according to the "script" he knew by heart.

When the alarm sounded again, signaling the official start of the exercise, it echoed through the sky once more.

Unlike the first time, Li Zhe did not simply "disappear".

Unlike the second time, he didn't have two "burdens" with him.

He simply spoke calmly into the communication channel, uttering a sentence that left Xu Lei and Yi Ze bewildered yet dared not disobey.

"You two, stay where you are and don't move."

Then, amidst everyone's bewildered and puzzled gazes...

His "Platinum Star," like a ghost, silently merged into that battlefield filled with smoke and chaos...

A "zero-dollar purchase" frenzy sweeping the entire training ground is about to begin...

The process that followed was smoother and more tedious than I had imagined.

Li Zhe felt the familiar sea breeze, his heart was completely calm, and he even felt a little like yawning.

The initial shock was gone, as was the tension and planning of the second playthrough.

What remains is only an extreme boredom, like a veteran gamer starting over in the beginner's village.

"Commander, we have arrived at Landing Port One. Please prepare for identity verification."

Zero's voice echoed in his mind, still mimicking Xing's calm tone, but it couldn't bring any new meaning to this destined journey.

Li Zhe could even complete the rest of the process with his eyes closed.

At which corner will we encounter the enthusiastic Xu Lei? In which square will we see Yi Ze casting his battle intent from afar? On the podium, what tone will Zhu Xingtuan use to announce the start of the exercise?

Everything happened exactly as if it were a pre-arranged script, without the slightest deviation.

This time, Li Zhe didn't resort to any more "disappearance" or "divine intervention" gimmicks.

He chose a more efficient and ruthless method—absolute, pure, and crushing.

"Brother Li, how do we fight this time?" Xu Lei's voice was as excited as ever.

"Push straight ahead, crushing everything in our way."

Li Zhe's answer was exactly the same as the last time, but his tone carried an unquestionable coldness.

The moment the exercise began, he didn't even give Xu Lei and Yi Ze any time to react.

Behind the "Platinum Star," the ultimate wings, which blend divinity and demonic nature, suddenly unfolded.

"boom--!!!!!"

Accompanied by a terrifying sonic boom that tore through the air, like a divine sword slashing across the sky, it instantly increased the speed to a limit that was impossible for the naked eye of mortals to perceive!

"Holy crap?! Brother Li, you..."

Before Xu Lei could even utter his shocked "Wait for me!", he was thrown off balance by the terrifying blast of air behind him, nearly tripping and falling flat on his face.

Izawa's "Sakura Warrior" immediately activated its high-mobility mode in an attempt to catch up.

But in the face of that white-gold streak of light that seemed to teleport, his speed, which he was so proud of, appeared so laughable and powerless.

He could only watch helplessly as the figure left a fleeting afterimage on his radar screen, and then…

Disappeared completely.

“This guy… he doesn’t treat us as teammates at all…” Ize’s eyes were filled with indescribable complex emotions.

There was shock, there was resentment, but more than anything, there was a deep sense of powerlessness.

At this moment, Li Zhe had already transformed into the most terrifying Grim Reaper on the battlefield.

He didn't even bother to activate Zero's battlefield sandbox, because the entire training ground map was already etched into his mind.

He was like a ruthless "script," executing the pre-set "optimal score-boosting route" with precision and efficiency.

Sector C-3, the ambush point for the "Wu Yue-Zhu Que" squad.

Li Zhe didn't even give them a chance to fire.

The "Ultimate Demon God - Crimson Heretic" form instantly switched, and the huge nodachi "Ame no Habakiri" burning with raging flames drew a flaming blade of light that was a hundred meters long in the air.

With a single stroke, he cleaved them, along with the entire mountain where they were hiding, in two.

Sector D-2, the base of the "Huazhong University of Science and Technology - White Tiger" team.

Li Zhe immediately activated the "Netherworld Dragon Rider" armored form.

A missile was launched from the barrel, like an invitation from hell, and landed precisely in their seemingly impregnable steel fortress.

The pilots of the five "White Tiger" mechs suffered a mental breakdown on the spot and were deemed "defeated".

Sector A-7, the heavy artillery position of "Northern Heavy Industries-Grizzly"...

In Zone E-5, the "Divine Craftsmanship University - Lu Ban" traps and mechanisms...

Everything was utterly crushed by Li Zhe's almost unreasonable and absolute power.

He's like a game protagonist who's unleashed his "Dynasty Warriors" powers, putting on a personal show full of violent aesthetics in this beginner village.

Those elite squads that other trainees considered incredibly powerful were as fragile as paper dolls in his presence.

The whole performance became increasingly dull.

He was too lazy to even collect those "energy nodes" and "quest items".

Because he knew that even if he emptied the entire training ground, he couldn't change the final outcome.

He was just venting.

It was venting the frustration and anger that was trapped in the cage of time, with nowhere to go...
