Chapter 1919: Battling Ling Wuyue (Seeking Subscriptions)_1
Having his little scheme seen through, Jiang Wuyue remained unfazed and said, "Well then... Since you've said as much, I guess I have no choice but to agree!"
It was worth taking the risk to bring this kid to meet Chief Ling after all – it wasn't a wasted trip!
Once he'd collected all the materials, he'd immediately ask this kid to upgrade his Battle Armor for him!
...
The next day, Tang Wulin found Chief Ling right on the agreed time...
Seeing him arrive so punctually, Chief Ling expressed surprise, "You came so quickly, it seems you're really passionate about Mechas."
Compared to that guy Jiang Wuyue, he's like night and day!
Tang Wulin scratched his head. "It's not that, Chief Ling, it's just that the Mecha competition has already started, and I don't have much time to waste!"
Long Yuxue had placed such high hopes on him – he had to at least come back with respectable results!
Chief Ling caught on to the key phrase and asked in astonishment, "You know about the Mecha competition, too? Are you participating in the federation's grand tournament?"
But the Mecha competition had already been going on for a week or two. Starting to learn Mecha techniques now was like cramming at the last minute!
Tang Wulin's face lit up. "Chief, are you participating too?"
Chief Ling lifted her chin slightly, some pride in her voice, "Of course, as an ace mecha master of the corps, I can't miss such a competition!"
Then she said again, "Okay, enough chit-chat, if you know about the Mecha competition, then you should also know about the Star Dou Battle Network. From now on, I'll teach you on this platform. Tell me your nickname!"
Using Mechas for combat in real life not only causes great damage but also carries certain risks!
But it's different with the Star Dou Battle Network – you just have to pay a little federation coin and you can eliminate all risks!
Tang Wulin responded promptly, "My nickname is Xiao Tang!"
Chief Ling looked somewhat disdainful. "Xiao Tang? That's a really odd name! Go back to your camp and get in line!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin hesitated, wondering if he should speak up. After a moment, he said with an awkward smile, "Um… Chief Ling, actually I have a private Star Dou Cabin."
When Chief Ling heard this, her whole demeanor changed. "A private Star Dou Cabin? Are you from one of those high-official families of the federation?"
Star Dou Cabins were rare to begin with – the kid's solo access to one indicated he must have an impressive background!
Tang Wulin's mouth twitched, and he quickly explained, "No, you've got it wrong, Chief. The Blood Gods at Blood God Camp applied for it on my behalf; it's sort of a small privilege."
Chief Ling smacked her lips, enviously commenting, "I really don't understand what those people at Blood God Camp see in you!"
Furthermore, the fact that those Blood Gods applied for Wulin to have sole access to a Star Dou Cabin showed that they were clearly interested in inviting Tang Wulin to join!
With a frustrated wave of her hand, she added, "If you don't have to queue, I still do. Go back and wait; I'll add you later!"
...
After logging into the Star Dou Battle Network, Tang Wulin waited for almost half an hour before a message popped up...
"Chief Ling requests to add you as a friend. Do you accept?"
Tang Wulin was taken aback, clearly not expecting Chief Ling to use her own name as a nickname!
He immediately responded, "Accept!"
Almost instantly after accepting, Tang Wulin heard Chief Ling's voice in his ear...
"It was so tiring. There were a lot of officers using the Star Dou Cabin today, and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bothered to queue."
With a light chuckle, Tang Wulin said, "Thank you for your efforts, Chief. Shall we start now?"
Chief Ling interrupted, "Wait, before I teach you any Mecha skills, I need to see what level you're at now!"
"Let's do this: we'll have a mecha battle, and you'll get a quicker grasp of things that way. Oh, and you're paying for the battle fees in federation coins!"
Tang Wulin readily answered, "No problem!"
Soon after, he paid four thousand federation coins and invited Ling Wuyue for a mecha match...
As a beam of light descended from above, they were both transported into the arena for the mecha battle...
Ling Wuyue's mecha was equipped with two sharp boomerangs on its back, faintly emitting a cold gleam...
In comparison, Tang Wulin's mecha looked quite ordinary, with no special features!
Ling Wuyue looked him over and frowned, "As a Forging Master, your mecha is so common? You haven't even modified it carefully!"
With such a shabby mecha, what's the use of participating in a mecha match?
She even felt that Tang Wulin was just seeking his own amusement!
Hearing this, Tang Wulin responded gloomily, "Chief Ling, isn't your mecha the strange one here? It actually uses boomerangs—I'm seeing this for the first time in my life!"
Ling Wuyue said with disdain, "That's because you're ignorant. These two boomerangs are the major weapons of my mecha!"
"Enough talk, let the battle begin!"
As her words fell, Ling Wuyue controlled her mecha to take the two boomerangs off her back and threw them straightforwardly forward without any fancy techniques...
"Whoosh!!"
The boomerangs made an intense sound as they cleaved through the air, obviously possessing extraordinary power...
The slow-reacting Tang Wulin also hurriedly made his mecha roll to the side, narrowly avoiding the boomerang strike...
Had he been hit by the alloy blades around the boomerangs, his mecha would have certainly been shredded like paper in an instant...
Ling Wuyue smiled and said, "So you managed to dodge—that's not bad awareness, but... my attacks are not so easy to evade!"
Instantly, the two boomerangs that had missed, incredibly curved from behind Tang Wulin's mecha, bearing down on him...
Tang Wulin instantly felt danger and quickly drew out his spear, sweeping it behind him almost reflexively...
Although he successfully blocked the boomerangs, he was still forced back a few steps...
After catching his breath, Tang Wulin said proudly, "Chief, didn't I block them?"
Ling Wuyue's face darkened, "Are you, provoking me??"
Does this guy really not realize I had slowed down nearly threefold?
The scene that followed turned very brutal...
...
Looking at Tang Wulin's mecha in front of her covered in cuts and bruises, Ling Wuyue couldn't help but mock, "You, driving a mecha might be mediocre, but you seem to have astonishing strength. Could it also be from your bloodline?"
She had battled many mecha masters, but never seen anyone able to fuse their bloodline with a mecha!
Tang Wulin blinked his eyes, "Chief, it's not just the bloodline, but also the Domain!"
Indeed, this was something he had discovered recently!
His Golden Dragon King Berserk Domain could actually enhance a non-living mecha as well!!
This was also the reason he could still clash with Ling Wuyue despite his inferior piloting skills!
