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

Chapter 68: A Review of Boarding the Ship [2 Updates]

As Li Zhe walked, he looked around at the aircraft carrier deck.

Admiring the elegant carrier-based aircraft.

That elegant curve, full of aerodynamic beauty, is absolutely amazing.

After entering the bridge, he casually stroked the aircraft carrier, his face full of rapture.

Bai Wangshu, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.

When she turned to look at Li Zhe, she noticed his actions.

Bai Wangshu's small mouth slowly opened wider.

She was stunned when she saw Li Zhe's "obsessive behavior" towards the ship.

This guy's fetish...

They're just like me!?

"Pfft~"

Bai Wangshu almost burst out laughing, and had to quickly cover her mouth to suppress her laughter.

that's it.

The three arrived at the combat command area, a small conference room.

Li Zhe gave a general explanation of the situation on the plane.

The text mentions someone booking out the first-class cabin and the subsequent bizarre explosion.

"The person who booked the first class cabin is named Yu Chuanfeng, the second young master of the Yuhu Group... I didn't expect it to be the Yuhu Group again..." After listening to Li Zhe's account, Bai Xihe and Bai Wangshu exchanged a glance.

The expressions of the brother and sister both became somewhat solemn.

“We inspected the first-class cabin of the plane and found the surveillance footage,” Bai Xihe said in a deep voice. “The mysterious veiled woman who appeared at the end of Yu Chuanfeng’s video call… her identity is probably not simple.”

Bai Wangshu added, "Behind this lies a very deep secret of the Featherbeak Group."

She paused, her bright eyes looking at Li Zhe, her tone becoming serious.

"Li Zhe... My brother and I belong to a special operations team of the Blue Star Mech Corps, which is responsible for handling special events related to the Abyss."

“The Featherbeak Group and their ‘Abyss Watcher’ program are our key targets of recent investigations.”

Bai Xihe picked up the conversation, looking intently at Li Zhe: "We have all witnessed your strength and courage. On behalf of the group, I extend an invitation to you—Li Zhe, are you interested in joining us to uncover the dark secrets behind the Featherbeak Group?"

Faced with this unexpected invitation, Li Zhe hesitated for a moment.

Joining a special operations team means gaining access to more critical intelligence and receiving greater resource support.

But there is no doubt that freedom of movement will be restricted.

My primary goal right now is to find a way to other strange realms, devour other types of monsters, and thus increase my strength as quickly as possible.

Getting involved too early in the complex factional struggles within the upper echelons of Earth is not a wise move.

Although this score with the Featherbeak Group definitely needs to be settled properly.

However, improving our strength should still be the priority.

After all, the other party has a mysterious identity, who can glare at anyone from a distance and blow their head off, and can even crash airplanes.

So, who exactly is that veiled woman? Why did she leave the first-class surveillance footage when she could have easily erased so many parts of the plane?

Li Zhe weighed the options silently in his mind and finally decided to politely decline.

"Thank you very much for your appreciation, but I have only recently become a formal mecha pilot and am still a greenhorn. I am afraid I am not yet capable of handling such an important mission. I would like to gain more experience at the grassroots level first."

Hearing this answer, Bai Xihe felt a little regretful, but still expressed her understanding. "Alright, everyone has their own ambitions, we won't force you. However, our group's door is always open to you."

Bai Wangshu, standing to the side, showed undisguised disappointment on her face.

She pouted and muttered under her breath, "Hey... I thought I'd have another interesting teammate. I was even thinking of having a flying race with you."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhe recalled a question from before and asked, "Speaking of which... I noticed that your mechs all seem to have the ability to fly. Are they equipped with special power modules?"

"Oh, you mean that!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Wangshu immediately perked up again.

"That's not a module, it's 'medal-derived technology' developed by the military!"

She explained with a hint of pride, "By analyzing the energy of the medal, we discovered that it can serve as a 'universal interface,' allowing the mech to carry some standard military external equipment! That's how our 'Peregrine Falcon' flight backpack came about."

Bai Xihe added, "This technology is currently in the experimental stage, and the attached equipment still has some problems in terms of energy stability and structural strength. Moreover, they cannot be taken into the Abyss Domain and can only be used on Earth."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhe understood.

It seems that the coalition government is indeed trying to improve the combat capabilities of the mech pilots in order to cope with the increasingly severe pressure on homeland defense.

This kind of add-on equipment cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

However, as an emergency measure, it can undoubtedly greatly enhance the mech division's home-based combat capabilities.

Li Zhe had investigated and found that the peak combat power of the brother and sister's mechs could easily exceed 10 after being equipped with external devices.

If we could bring this kind of equipment to the Abyss Realm, we could probably wreak havoc not only in the outer areas, but even in the core area.

Unfortunately, all of this requires activating the navigation beacon first...

"By the way, what are your plans next?" Bai Wangshu suddenly leaned closer, her big eyes blinking as she looked at Li Zhe.

"I'm planning to go back to downtown Shanghai to take care of some personal matters," Li Zhe answered frankly.

"Oh? What do you need help with? Do you need my help?" Bai Wangshu asked.

"Wang Shu!" Bai Xihe slapped her on the head with a chop to the head. "Don't pry into other people's privacy like that, it's rude!"

"Oh, brother! I was just curious!" Bai Wangshu stuck out his tongue and rubbed his head.

Li Zhe looked at the lively brother and sister and smiled: "It's nothing, I just want to buy a motorcycle for daily transportation."

"locomotive?!"

Bai Wangshu's eyes lit up instantly.

"Then you've come to the right person! Let me tell you, I have a friend who owns all kinds of motorcycles! From Harleys to Ducatis, from retro cruisers to street bikes, you can pick any one you want!"

She patted her chest and said with a smug look, "I'm going back to Shenhai anyway, so... why don't you come with me to her place? I guarantee you can pick out the coolest one!"

As she spoke, she winked at Li Zhe.

That cunning and adorable look seemed to be deliberately seducing people.

Bai Xihe stood to the side, helplessly holding his forehead.

My foolish sister... she really will stop at nothing to win over talented people...

Li Zhe looked at Bai Wangshu's eager eyes, but his heart remained unmoved.

But...

If the other party repeatedly extends an olive branch, it would indeed seem somewhat cold-hearted and strange to simply refuse.

Moreover, I do need a high-performance motorcycle as material for producing the "transforming motorcycle" weapon modules.
