    Chapter 93

    The originally chaotic crowd completely returned to silence.

    Wu Ming broke into a cold sweat on his back and called Shi Ji in a low voice: "Command Shi, command Shi..."

    "Instructor Shi."

    Behind him, the number one student in this class came out: "What do you mean?"

    There is only one special forces team in the entire league, but there is more than one special forces team.No. 1 was sent by the special forces of the Southwest Military Region and was one of the leaders of this protest.

    In their view, this training method is simply unreasonable.

    With the alliance's current technological level, many inventions can already make up for human beings' own shortcomings, and mechas are the most perfect one.

    The operator and the mecha feel the same. The strength, speed, and attack effect are all increased to the limit. With the continuous development of new weapons, the combat power will only become stronger and stronger.

    Even if some of the Zerg can release poisonous gas and poisonous mist, they can be shielded by the shield of the mecha shell and supply clean air to the operator through the filtration system.

    What they really need is a lot of training, which is empathy with the mecha, subtle control of the mecha, and countless simulated battles in the mecha.

    The endless running circles, the so-called devil training camp that tests endurance, physical strength, drug resistance, and destroys the will may still be of some use on the old mecha from ten years ago, but after several rounds of technological innovation, it is meaningless.

    Amid this growing resistance, strong resistance arose as soon as the news spread that the existing combat model and system should be reformed, the status of mechas should be weakened, and related military expenditures should be reduced.

    No. 1 walked up to Shi Ji and said, "During training before, you had a good attitude towards us and I didn't want to find fault with you."

    "You are young, so we will treat you as ignorant and do not have the relevant common sense of a mecha operator."

    No. 1 said in a deep voice: "I apologize and let this matter be over..."

    Shi Ji: "Nine minutes and forty-five seconds."

    No. 1 frowned: "What?"

    "There are still nine minutes and forty seconds." Shi Ji said, "If you can't defeat me, I will win."

    No. 1's face turned completely cold.

    He stopped talking nonsense, turned around and returned to the middle of the protesting college, and issued the order to equip the mecha.

    Shi Ji looked at Wu Ming: "Captain Wu, there are also mechas. You and Sui Qi can also join them."

    Wu Ming: "..."

    Wu Ming finally regained his face that was recognized by the facial recognition system. He turned around and ran away without even thinking about it.

    Sui Qi didn't know what Shi Ji wanted to do. He just didn't expect that these students would be so embarrassed to agree to such an outrageous competition. Just as he was about to step forward to stop them, he was suddenly pulled back by the collar of their training uniforms.

    Sui Qi was a little anxious: "Instructor Nie! Command him from time to time——"

    "Watch." Nie Chi's gaze fell on the field. "The more you try to stop this situation, the more counterproductive it will be."

    An angry person may have reason, but a group of angry people does not.

    This collective anger, used in the right place, is a powerful enough force.If used in the wrong place and taken advantage of by someone with intentions, it will turn into a disorderly flood, destroying everything in sight without any explanation.

    Nie Chi worked as a professional manager in the Sui family and was sent to Sui Si's studio. He had seen too many such cases.

    Now, these Furies are even outfitted with powerful mechas.

    Sui Qi frowned.

    He was admitted to the Military Academy at the age of seventeen, and was specially recruited into the special operations team before he graduated. He devoted himself to studying mechas. In addition to training every day, there were simulation exercises, and he never had time to think about it.

    ...But Nie Chi was right.

    He and Wu Ming spent a lot of effort to reason with these people, but the result was not only counterproductive, but also made those people's resistance stronger, and they were isolated from other students.

    Even if Shi Ji doesn't stand up, the accumulated anger will always have an outlet to pour out.

    Sui Qi clenched her fists, but couldn't help but worry about Shi Ji: "But after all, there are so many people, Commander Shi——"

    As he spoke, he looked towards the training ground, suddenly froze for a moment, and stopped midway.

    Shi Ji did not gain the upper hand.

    Being surrounded by angry mechas, Shi Ji remained methodical and did not even take any difficult actions like piloting a wingman.

    He said that he had only tried to operate a mecha once, and he really had only tried it once.Any mecha operator with some experience could tell that Shi Ji was still familiar with the operation of the mecha while fighting.

    But even so, the besieged mechas didn't take any advantage.

    A speed-type mecha saw Shi Ji being surrounded by two mechas and swooped in for a sneak attack. The mecha's palm spit out a bright white cutting laser and pierced Shi Ji's mecha.

    He thought Shi Ji would sideways get out of the way, and was even ready to pursue him, but when he looked at the monitor, he couldn't help but be stunned.

    Shi Ji's mecha was still in the surveillance field of view.

    His mecha roared to a halt, and the propulsion indicator light on the control panel went out instantly.

    ...He didn't even see clearly when Shi Ji destroyed his propulsion system.

    Cold sweat broke out on the operator's forehead. He lost the propulsion system. He couldn't control the trajectory of his mecha. He pulled down the microphone and shouted: "Get out of the way! Quick"

    He had predicted Shi Ji's dodge movement and had already started turning to charge up in advance. Now he couldn't stop the momentum and the entire mecha rushed towards another special red mecha that was besieging Shi Ji.

    The sharp cutting laser opened a long crack in the red mecha.

    Before the operator of the red special mecha could scold him for being unlucky, he was already sprayed with exhaust fumes from Shi Ji's old standard mecha, making him choke and cough uncontrollably.

    Seeing that its companion was in a mess, the other mecha rushed over to help, but the huge target in front of it suddenly disappeared from the monitor.

    He didn't have time to react, and the powerful collision force was reflected back along the mecha.

    This force is in the same direction as his momentum. The performance of the mecha determines the horsepower of the thruster. The mecha that has been driven to the limit cannot handle the superimposed force. The steering system fails and it rushes over uncontrollably.

    As soon as the red special mecha stood up, it collided with the mecha that was rushing towards it and fell heavily to the ground.

    At the edge of the training ground, No. 1, who was piloting a black special mecha, felt his heart sinking.

    Until now, Shi Ji has not even made a formal move.

    The so-called "you all go together" siege has no absolute advantage as imagined.

    Without the immediate guidance of the observer hand, the mecha's shortcomings were exposed - while its power was increased, it also blocked most of the perspectives that could be grasped during combat, including its powerful propulsion system and powerful new weapons.The weapon instead became the direct cause of the mecha losing control after being attacked.

    Melee combat blocked the mecha's long-range lethal attacks, and the encirclement became the biggest constraint.Many mechas didn't even figure out what was going on before they fell into a dazed mess with their own people.

    Shi Ji is even constantly learning how to operate a mecha operator!

    No. 1's throat moved, and he stared at Shi Ji closely, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

    ...How could someone learn how to operate a mecha while fighting?

    The situation on the field is changing rapidly.

    Looking at the mechas that were either on the verge of being scrapped or completely stalled, more and more people seemed to have been poured cold water on their heads, and gradually calmed down from the bewitched anger.

    There are only three minutes left.

    Shi Ji stood there. He made one last attempt to spit laser out from the palm of the mecha, extinguishing the bright white cutting laser, and walked towards No. 1.

    "I learned." Shi Ji said.

    number 1:"……"

    The one facing him was just an old standard mecha. Its performance was not outstanding, and it could not be adjusted to suit the operator's body shape and operating habits. It only had the most common standard combat mode.

    There was already a vague fear in his heart.

    Shi Ji chose to attack first.

    In mecha combat, attacking first will not give you an advantage.The mecha will naturally lose part of its observation angle during the attack. The mecha on the opposite side will stop statically, giving it enough time to choose to fight or dodge.

    No. 1 suppressed the trace of unreasonable fear, made up his mind, and also turned the thruster to the limit.

    He was using a special mecha, and its propulsion power was much higher than that of ordinary mechas. With a stagger, he had already ducked behind Shi Ji's mecha.

    No. 1 has already seen that fighting is Shi Ji's advantage. He is not prepared to fight with Shi Ji. The metal chassis rubs against the ground and makes a harsh sound. He pulls away and turns around. The mecha has activated its electromagnetic shotgun at the same time.

    Shi Ji avoided the extremely widened killing surface, and the dazzling white light blade in his palm pierced directly towards the operation compartment.

    No. 1 returned the arm to block the gap, and used the opportunity to spin and whip his leg, forcing Shi Ji to step back.

    The heavy, dark metal almost heated up from friction in the air.

    Shi Ji's mecha had insufficient propulsion, and No. 1 did not give Shi Ji time to reorganize. The particle accelerator was running, and the trajectory of the Yaomu particle beam was directed directly towards Shi Ji's mecha.

    Shi Ji lay on his back, the mecha slid into the attack range, and the bright light blade struck again.

    No. 1 whipped his leg to block again. Seeing Shi Ji's light blade being deflected and sliding away, he felt vague doubts in his heart.

    ...Why doesn't Shi Ji use other weapons?

    This cutting-type light blade is indeed very sharp, but his mecha has been specially reinforced. Even if the light blade is used again, it will only leave a shallow white mark on the shell.

    He originally thought that Shi Ji was hiding some killer move behind the light blade, but Shi Ji easily missed the light blade twice, and the mecha only reported a slight bump.

    In this kind of petty collision, even the mecha will not issue an automatic warning of being attacked.

    No. 1 blocked Shi Ji's attack for the third time. He really couldn't figure out what Shi Ji was going to do. He was a little annoyed by this almost teasing attitude and turned on the electromagnetic pulse cannon on the mecha's shoulder.

    This kind of electromagnetic pulse cannon requires a sufficient distance. No. 1 quickly slid back and was about to turn on the button, but suddenly felt something was wrong.

    There was an astonished uproar from the sidelines.

    No. 1's heart sank. Before he could check what accident happened, the mecha suddenly shook violently and fell to the ground.

    No. 1 rolled out of the operating cabin and stood up in embarrassment.

    His eyes widened, looking at his mecha in disbelief, his face turned pale.

    One left leg was completely removed from the mecha.

    The attack of the light blade could not leave traces on the mecha shell, but it did not mean that the joints of the mecha were equally strong - when he was blocking, Shi Ji's light blade slid open, but actually pried it in.The connection point of the mecha.

    There were four connection points in total, and Shi Ji cut off three.

    In order to widen the attack range, he controlled the mecha to retreat. Because the propulsion force was too strong, he forcibly cut off the last part.

    This kind of damage was too subtle. The mecha didn't know the pain and couldn't really judge the nature of the damage. In the automatic alarm system, it was just a few small bumps.

    Shi Ji jumped out of the operating cabin.

    His expression did not change in any way due to the fierce battle. His slightly sweaty short hair was blown away by the wind, and his eyes were dark, with a sharp and bright frost color under them.

    "They should be taught pain."

    Shi Ji said: "You guys rely too much on the power of mechas."

    No. 1 gritted his teeth, turned his head and fell silent.

    "The mecha can filter poisonous gas, but once the mecha is damaged in battle, the poisonous gas will be poured in directly. The portable oxygen inside the mecha is only enough to last for five minutes."

    Shi Ji: "What should I do if I still can't find a suitable landing place after five minutes?"

    "What if the mecha is destroyed and you and your companions share one mecha and there's not enough oxygen?"

    "If the mecha loses control under the attack of the Zerg, do you have enough strength and reaction speed to forcibly correct the mecha and correct the direction of deviation?"

    "If your mecha crashed deep in the wasteland and you could only walk out on two legs, would you have enough physical strength and endurance?"

    No. 1's face turned red: "What you are talking about, in a conventional war, the probability of happening is at most one thousandth -"

    Shi Ji: "What you want to join is a special operations team."

    No. 1 stopped talking and fell silent.

    There is no conventional warfare in Special Forces.

    Special operations teams are the sharpest and most easily broken blades that go deep into the most dangerous areas.

    The training ground gradually became quiet. The operators came out of the mecha with a sullen look. They closed their mouths one by one and were too ashamed to raise their heads.

    "I took a trick." Shi Ji said.

    Shi Ji: "You have no sense of cooperating in fighting. Letting you besiege me will be detrimental to you."

    number 1:"……"

    Shi Ji was just stating the facts. He stopped and recalled what he had just learned: "Mechas shouldn't be used like you do, you"

    "Instructor Shi." No. 1 interrupted him, clenched his fists, and said the rest, "You are a genius, that's why you can say such things."

    Shi Ji stopped and looked at him gently with clear black eyes.

    No. 1’s face was terribly hot.

    Nie Chi defeated them. They said that Nie Chi had trained longer than them and had more combat experience than them.

    Shi Ji defeated them, and they said Shi Ji was a genius.

    No. 1 himself was so embarrassed by such strong words that he couldn't hold his head up, but he had to continue: "Is it wrong for us to want better mechas with stronger combat capabilities? We fight desperately with the mechas.Is it wrong for A to train together and want to become stronger?"

    "Why must we reform? Why must we change the current combat model?"

    No. 1 said: "The current battle training cannot bring out the true power of the mecha. If we are allowed to unlock the truly powerful destructive weapons of the mecha -"

    Wu Ming was checking his mecha. He blew a short whistle and pointed at the special mecha No. 1.

    No. 1 was stunned and looked over subconsciously.

    He seemed to have been hit in the head. He couldn't say a word and broke out in a cold sweat.

    ... Every muzzle of his mecha was sealed with a layer of quantum shield by Shi Ji at some unknown time!

    If the mecha's long-range weapons are not banned, once activated, the huge energy intercepted will first completely annihilate the mecha itself into particles.

    "The Zerg have learned to deal with this a long time ago."

    Nie Chi walked over from the sidelines, threw a bottle of water to Shi Ji, and pressed a wet towel on Shi Ji's head: "Once the war starts, the Insect King will immediately send out low-level Zerg to block the mecha's highly destructive weapons."

    No. 1 couldn't say another word. He lowered his head with red face and stood there.

    "Your appeal is not wrong."

    Shi Ji was dangling after being wiped with a wet towel by the vice-captain. He tried hard to maintain his dignity as an instructor and continued: "But there is one thing."

    Wu Ming was curious: "What's going on?"

    "This is not the first time I have used this method." Shi Ji said, "The last time I removed the leg was from a red stag beetle king."

    Wu Ming was not surprised at all that Shi Jizhen had fought. He shook his head dumbly and was about to speak, but suddenly he was stunned.

    …What’s the difference between today’s mechas and the Zerg?

    The mecha has a powerful shell, and the Zerg also has a powerful shell. The mecha has extremely high speed and attack power, and the Zerg also has extremely high speed and attack power.

    The reason why Shi Ji proposed to let everyone come together is because this mode is what he is best at.

    What's the difference between the mechas dominated by anger that swarmed Shi Ji just now, and the swarm of insects under the control of the Insect King who only know how to fight?

    If there was any way to turn people into data, stuff them directly into mechas, and then change the appearance of mechas...

    Wu Ming was startled by his random thoughts, shook his head vigorously, and wiped his face.

    "We cannot turn people into bugs just to defeat bugs."

    Shi Ji said: "What is really important is not mechas and wingmen, or new weapons, but human beings themselves."

    "Human beings can use tactics, make reasonable use of environments and conditions, collaborate and cooperate, feel pain and fear, and overcome pain and fear in order to protect their companions."

    “It’s the people who fight to the end.”

    "It's the people who need to be protected."

    "What we want is comrades who can trust us with our lives." Shi Ji said, "not a mecha that can fight."

    The training ground was completely silent.

    Zhuang Yu cooperated with Pu Ying and had just finished handling the investigation work of the Security Department. He came down from the office with Dean Nie and arrived at the training ground.

    He just asked Shi Ji to express his attitude first. He changed into training clothes that were easy to use and asked Nie Chi, who was leaning on the sidelines with his arms folded: "Where are you now?"

    Nie Chi: "It's over."

    Zhuang Yu: "?"

    Nie Chi looked at Dean Nie carefully and shook his head: "No, my dad can't teach this kind of student... Mr. Yu has already intervened?"

    Dean Nie: "??"

    Zhuang Yu saw Dean Nie starting to roll up his sleeves again, apologized in time, and pulled Nie Chi away from the training ground.

    Yu Tang briefly mentioned the matter about Nie Chi. Zhuang Yu saw that Nie Chi looked wrong and frowned: "Have things changed?"

    Nie Chi nodded: "Yes"

    He gave up the task of the previous book. The punishment for failing the task was to be sent to "work overtime" by Chuan Bookstore.

    Because the world's data flow was disrupted, the tasks given to employees by Chuan Bookstore could not be delivered from the backend, so employees who worked overtime were assigned to replace the staff and manually issue new task instructions.

    Nie Chi originally wanted to destroy this instruction directly, but if the host this time is Yu Tang, there may be room for change.

    Zhuang Yu nodded, no longer wasting time, and dialed the number Zhan Chen left for him.

    Zhuang Yu handed the phone to Nie Chi and returned to the training ground without asking any questions.

    Nie Chi picked up the phone: "Mr. Yu?"

    "It's me." Yu Tang deliberately did not turn on the shield, and the conversation was monitored openly. He answered simply, "What's the matter?"

    Nie Chi: "The background shows that your first task is to make Sheng Yi fall into the abyss of despair, and it has been successfully completed."

    Nie Chi: "After completing this mission, have you not received any new missions?"

    On the other end, Yu Tang's voice paused for a moment and continued to answer: "Yes."

    "The world's data is in chaos, and background communications are disrupted."

    Nie Chi said: "I have been assigned to issue you a new mission order."

    When he received this task, he was actually ready to destroy the information privately and accept any punishment.

    But if Yu Tang is also responsible for this book, things may turn around.

    ...Things must be turning around.

    Nie Chi shook his phone hard.

    He closed his eyes, suppressed all unnecessary thoughts, and put on his meticulous and rigid mask again.

    Mr. Yu can teach little S7 so well, and he will definitely be able to save S7.

    "Your second mission."

    Nie Chi: "It is to ensure that S7 and the wingman driving program are fully integrated to become the best wingman driving intelligent AI."
