237, Meng Hongchen: Senior Lin Yi actually likes me! That's why he secretly investigated me! [Big Chapter]_1

[Blood Loss: 300,000]

[Remaining Blood: 899,939,214,678]

[Damage Level: Red (Intermediate)]

[Random Reward: Mark V]

[Host Reward: Mark V*3]

Mark V... Iron Man!!!

Lin Yi was astonished by the reward displayed on the panel.

The Marvel universe's rewards had been part of the prize pool for a while, with the most anticipated being the Iron Man armor.

Lin Yi had been wondering why the Iron Man armor had not shown up yet, and now it appeared at such a crucial moment!

So envious of that kid, Xiao Hongchen!

Wait, why envy him? He only got one set, I got three!

Lin Yi paused for a moment, then burst into laughter in his mind.

Another childhood dream fulfilled.

He looked at Xiao Hongchen and said, "Damage 300,000..."

Only then did Lin Yi notice that the damage dealt by these three cannons was set so neatly: a solid 100,000 damage per shot!

It turned out that Sun-Moon Royal Soul Master Academy did not just replicate the Silver Moonlight Shield last night but also studied the blood loss mechanism of Lin Yi's shield and even managed to create this cleanly damaging cannon overnight.

"It's really 300,000! Xuan Ziwen, you little guy got something right!"

Hearing the damage Lin Yi mentioned, Jing Hongchen turned and shouted smilingly at a soul engineer teacher in the academy.

Xuan Ziwen adjusted his glasses and humbly replied, "It's nothing much, just used yesterday's soul tool damage data to calculate it. I just happen to like observing and compiling statistics."

Lin Yi curiously asked, "You specifically researched my blood loss mechanism?"

Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen respectfully answered:

"To Lin Yi the elder, it was a teacher in the academy who used yesterday's soul tool damage to deduce it, and then we worked overnight to produce this neatly-damaging linked cannon."

"This cannon with a damage of 100,000 per shot is already close to a Level 10 soul tool, and it can only be used about ten times before it's scrapped. We nearly exhausted all our available resources in the academy last night to make these four units."

Lin Yi nodded, indeed.

100,000 damage was equivalent to the damage inflicted by the normal use of the first soul skill by Thousand Waves, who possesses a divine spirit and is an Ultimate Douluo.

That they were able to research and produce four such advanced soul tools overnight was already quite impressive.

Lin Yi looked at Xuan Ziwen; he remembered this person as well.

In the latter period of Soul Land II, it seemed he had been lured to the Tang Sect by Huo Yuhao and helped the Sect in soul tool production.

"Damage 300,000, Red Intermediate Level, reward Mark V."

"Mark V?"

Xiao Hongchen asked with a concerned expression, as it was his reward, after all.

Lin Yi nodded and tossed the red light orb in his hand to the ground, where it turned into a red and white briefcase.

Indeed, it was that version from the memories – Lin Yi chuckled inwardly.

The Mark V first appeared in Iron Man 2, designed as a portable model with thinner armor, capable of folding into a briefcase, and not requiring robotic assistance for donning.

It matched the fact that it was being given out as a reward.

If it had been the Mark III, you'd need robots to help you with parts and screws, which Lin Yi couldn't provide — neither the fitting area nor the robots.

"Just a briefcase?"

Xiao Hongchen hopped off the cannon and came up to the briefcase to inspect it.

"This suit of armor comes with capabilities such as attack, surveillance, strength enhancement, smart butler analysis, supersonic flight, and more. However, this particular armor is the thin version, so its defense is somewhat weak and its types of attack are relatively limited."

Xiao Hongchen looked surprised, "So many abilities? Then, is it stronger than the Two-Word Battle Armor?"

"Not exactly, it's mainly about the model. This is the Mark V; in terms of quick donning, defense, aesthetic, and attack capabilities, it can't compare with the Two-Word Battle Armor. However, in other respects, it will definitely provide you with an extremely novel experience."

Just the armor's smart analysis butler, Jarvis, was far beyond what Two-Word Battle Armor could compete with.

Having Jarvis assist in soul tool production might just completely outperform these academy teachers.

It seems the reward level isn't high enough; only the Mark V can be drawn. If it were a later model, one with nanotechnology, that would be amazing.

After watching so many movies, Lin Yi still doesn't know exactly how many attack methods and special abilities are contained in an Iron Man suit.

It even has the function of purifying urine... impressive, right?

And about donning, although the Mark V isn't as rapid as the Two-Word Battle Armor,

the donning process is an absolute visual delight for Lin Yi, that sensation of a mecha transforming and attaching to his body is the very feeling boys dream of!

"Elder Lin Yi... is this really battle armor? It doesn't look like it. How do you put it on? Do I open it?"

Looking at the briefcase-shaped armor, Xiao Hongchen asked somewhat awkwardly.

"Put your hand on it, and you will receive instructions for donning and usage in your mind."

"Okay, will do!"

Xiao Hongchen immediately did so, crouching down and touching the retractable metal surface of the briefcase.

In that instant, information about the Iron Man armor flooded into his mind.

Xiao Hongchen's expression immediately changed: "Indeed, it feels different from soul technology..."

He grinned at Lin Yi in fascination and then set his foot onto the briefcase. With a flurry of motion—"Whirr"—the briefcase transformed, mechanical parts unfolded, and two mechanical arms stood in the middle.

The crowd was astounded, clearly not expecting the briefcase to suddenly transform.
