The Last Sentinel

Foolish people have always been the ones who do the most stupid things.

After confirming the news of the support, Fusang immediately began their abstract actions.

"[Neon News] Breaking news: Dongfang Daxia has announced that it will dispatch mechs to our earthquake-stricken area to eliminate the S-class monsters. We welcome this and hope that the Dongfang Daxia mechs will arrive as soon as possible!"

"According to the latest report from the Japanese news, the mecha dispatched by the Eastern Great Xia this time is not the most powerful White Emperor mecha, but an old mecha that is over 20 years old. This shows that although the Eastern Great Xia is carrying out an international mission, they still discriminate against us with prejudice. Our experts have already protested to the Southern Heavenly Gate about the mecha model and hope that the Southern Heavenly Gate will provide an explanation as soon as possible."

"[Neon News] The latest poll shows that the Eastern Great Xia's initiative to send mechs to fight the monsters is largely for its own benefit. Some scholars even believe that the monsters' appearance in Japan is a conspiracy by the Eastern Great Xia, an attempt to use its proximity to force Japan to break away from Atlantis's system. That's why they are so actively sending mechs to help..."

When Japan doesn't make a move, it's a game-winning one!

Three official news items from Japan appeared in quick succession on the People's Alliance Forum channel.

The series of reports from [Neon News] instantly turned the entire Southern Heavenly Gate of the Eastern Great Xia into a state of extreme embarrassment.

"Why go to Japan to aid a force that doesn't belong to us?! When did this happen?! Have the higher-ups at headquarters lost their minds?! How come my Moonbeam Base didn't know about this?"

"Don't hesitate upstairs. This time, we're dispatching the [Divine Capital], which was sent to provide assistance at the invitation of Atlantis."

"Are all the Atlantean mechs dead? Where are Alpha, Poseidon, and Zeus? If all else fails, repair the Dangerous Gipsy and send it over to fill the gaps! Won't they go themselves? Do we really have to send them?"

"I don't know either."

"What the hell! These days, we've seen plenty of dogs biting Lü Dongbin, but this is the first time Lü Dongbin hasn't even been kind, and the dog has already started biting him!"

"【Luoyang】The Shen Du ship hasn't even arrived yet, and it's already received a barrage of negative reviews. How interesting! The shortsightedness of the Japanese is truly laughable."

"I heard that the pilot of the [Divine Capital] this time is Ye Feng, who just appeared!"

"Ye Feng? Is he the latest S-rank rookie who shocked the three major organizations?"

"That's him! This Ye Feng even defeated the hexagonal S-rank warrior King Arthur during the new recruit test. I heard that King Arthur accepted his defeat wholeheartedly and voluntarily joined his group. Now, the famous S-rank containment team, the [Punishment Knights], is Ye Feng's private army!"

"This is dangerous! With Fusang's attitude, the [Shen Du] and Ye Feng we sent will likely face a situation where they are attacked from both sides. Sigh, maybe we should cancel this operation!"

"Cancel my ass, it's already set off..."

In an instant, the forum was flooded with all sorts of sarcastic and mocking remarks, turning the entire forum into a massive gossip event.

Regarding the Nantianmen Project itself, the Nantianmen headquarters originally did not want to make a big deal out of this aid mission; they just wanted to act quietly and without making a fuss.

Atlantis thought the same way. After all, asking its mortal enemy to help its little brother would be a way of telling the world that Atlantis is no longer what it used to be, that it can't even protect its little brother, and that it has to rely on its mortal enemy to maintain its dignity.

Japan's actions are like an outrageous mother opening a door for something outrageous—it's utterly absurd.

Neon thought that by bringing the matter to the forefront, they could put a huge moral burden on Eastern Xia and force Eastern Xia's mechs to arrive quickly to provide assistance. However, they did not expect that this foolish move would completely break the tacit understanding between the two organizations to keep a low profile, causing the entire Human Alliance to know about the matter.

Public opinion has suddenly exploded.

Both Atlantis and the headquarters of the South Heavenly Gate Project have now become cowards.

Atlantis thought to itself, "I chickened out once, and you, Japan, broadcast it all over the world. Do you think it's easy for me? For you, I swallowed my pride and begged my mortal enemy, the Southern Heavenly Gate, for help, and you, in turn, stab me in the back! Fine, fine, fine! From now on, I don't care whether you live or die!"

The South Heavenly Gate headquarters thought to themselves, "Supporting Japan wasn't exactly a glorious thing to begin with. I only helped out of goodwill, and you're using that to threaten me and morally blackmail me. Fine, your future is your own business. I don't care anymore."

Just as the neon signs were carrying out their devilish schemes, frantically morally blackmailing the Great Xia Nantianmen and disgusting the Western New Rome Atlantis, Ye Feng, at the center of the storm vortex, was piloting his mecha across the calm sea.

Dark clouds and howling storms whipped up massive waves tens of meters high on the sea surface, booming—

The seawater churned as a deep red underwater spacecraft, over thirty meters long, shattered the surface and sped past at extremely low altitude.

This is the travel mode, one of the three main forms of the Crimson Destroyer.

Through the observation window, you can see the cockpit of the Crimson Spaceship. It is quite large, with a space of five cubic meters. Originally a cockpit for two people, it now only has one pilot seat. Various screens around it are flashing constantly, and there are some energy drinks in the nutrient tank.

The pilot's seat is like a giant massage chair, twice the size of its original size. It is densely covered with various neural circuit interfaces, brain-computer interfaces, and body neuron interfaces to ensure that the pilot's mental strength, conditioned reflexes, and neural perception are always connected to the optimal state of the [Crimson Destroyer].

Sitting in the silver-gray driver's seat, Ye Feng stared at the distorted, pixelated image on the screen in front of him, saying repeatedly, "Brother, we've changed your name at least three hundred times! Since leaving the [Divine Capital] base, I've kept giving you new names, and what's the result? You don't want any of them—Big Yellow, Little White, Er Mao, Baldy, Gou Sheng, Tie Zhu, Dana—you don't want any of them. So what name do you want?"

The mosaic module on the screen looked like a fat rabbit, shaking its head incessantly, as if saying, "No, the name you gave me is terrible, I don't want the name you gave me."

And this chubby rabbit mosaic module is the soul of the [Crimson Destroyer], the first mecha soul of Earth, which was born less than two hours ago!

Its appearance directly filled the void of Blue Star lacking the Mech Soul Mech.

According to the instructions from the chat group's expert, the first three days are a crucial stage for new Mech Souls. You need to chat with them, build a relationship, and most importantly, give them a name, nurturing them like children.

But this fat rabbit spirit was really too picky. Ye Feng said every name he could think of in his life, but it was unwilling to accept any of them.

Ye Feng spread his hands and said, "Then tell me, what name do you want?"

The mosaic-covered fat rabbit tucked its two front paws into its chest, striking a thoughtful pose, before uttering the words, "I don't know either."

Ye Feng was on the verge of collapse. "What should we do?"

The fat rabbit said, "How about we put that aside for now? Let me tell you about my ultimate move first!"

Ye Feng slapped his thigh. "Right, talking about ultimate moves, what's your ultimate move again?"

The screen flickered, and an introduction sheet appeared in front of Ye Feng.

Name: Mental Storm

Category: Mental Ability Ultimate Technique

Exclusive: Mental-type Mech - Divine Capital/Crimson Destruction

Effect: After casting, it creates a field of strong magnetic pulse that causes mental confusion, briefly interfering with the enemy's ability to distinguish friend from foe. When used in combat, it has a certain chance to weaken the opponent, which can be used to fight or escape.

Frequency: Under normal circumstances, with two S-class genius pilots of mental intelligence, the SAN energy provided by the two pilots can power the mecha once.

Tip: Once you unleash Mental Storm, immediately leave the battlefield to preserve your strength and ensure a long-term victory.

The fat rabbit prompted: "Your mental intelligence far surpasses that of an ordinary S-class genius. With the SAN points you provided, you should be able to unleash at least three, or even more, Mental Storms! Is there any way to increase the power of this ultimate move? I've always thought this ultimate move was pretty useless! Before, considering that the two S-class psychic geniuses piloting me couldn't communicate, I was too lazy to say anything. Now that I can speak, I strongly request that you modify this ultimate move to make it more imposing and powerful, instead of making it like an escape skill!"

Ye Feng closed his eyes. "Let me think for a moment."

In the chat group.

Ye Feng: Boss, boss, I need your help urgently! Can't we upgrade this [Mental Storm] ultimate skill?

Immortal Mage: [Mental Storm] My god, why are you still using such a trash beginner skill?! In the mage world, this skill is so common that even ordinary mages wouldn't bother using it!

Ye Feng: Boss, what kind of [psychic] superpowers do you have?

Immortal Mage: This really gets to my area of ​​expertise. Let me introduce myself. I am currently the only all-powerful, all-encompassing, and all-elemental super mage in all dimensions. My mage tower is the highest-level mage library in all dimensions. My areas of expertise range from necromancy to Holy Light Baptism, from fire destruction to the Frozen Age...

Master of Machines: Can't you get to the point?! [Mental Storm] is a mental ability, how do I improve it?

Immortal God of Magic: Ahem, [Mental Storm] is a very low-level move. To improve it, there are two main directions: one is the external direction, and the other is the internal direction. The external direction is to continue expanding your mental power, such as [Mental Annihilation], [Mental Prison], and [Divine Destruction]. The internal direction is mostly [Mental Eavesdropping], [Mental Restraint], and [Divine Possession]. Considering that the resources in your hometown are currently quite limited and you don't have many mental power resources to squander, I personally strongly suggest that you go for the internal direction, which is to cultivate your individual mental power!

Master of Machines: Then why don't you upgrade it! Stop talking nonsense!

Immortal God of Magic: Don't rush.

Group notification: The Immortal God of Magic has uploaded a high-level mental power spell, [Divine Possession], and has designated Ye Feng as the target.

Group notification: Ye Feng has completed downloading [Divine Possession].

The next moment, Ye Feng opened his eyes, looked at the expectant fat rabbit-like machine spirit, and smiled, "[Mental Storm] is indeed too low-level. I've got you a more powerful ultimate move!"

The chubby rabbit was filled with anticipation, cupping its face in its forepaws. "What? What new ultimate move?"

Ye Feng said, "【Divine Possession】, activate the brain interface, I'll transfer the skill to you, then I can use it, and you can use it too, we can both use it!"

Fat Rabbit, "Possession? That sounds like an evil technique!"

Ye Feng said, "The skill depends on the user. People can be good or bad, but skills are neither good nor evil! We are mental ability users, so it's normal for us to be able to possess others. If we couldn't, that would be laughable..."
