the next day.
Early in the morning, before it was dark, Qin Xiaotian had already packed up and walked downstairs with excitement on his face.
"Sister, you are already awake."
Looking at Luan Shuangyu who had been sitting on the sofa waiting for a long time, Qin Xiaotian smiled, and then said a little unnaturally: "That training ground is expensive, right?"
He and Luan Shuangyu had lived in Jiangcheng since childhood, and the university Luan Shuangyu went to was also in a magical city very close to Jiangcheng.
Through the memory of his original body, Qin Xiaotian discovered that the geographical territory here has not changed much from the original world area.
Jiangcheng can barely be regarded as a first-tier city. Although the per capita salary is not good, its spending power is acceptable. With the glory of being a provincial capital city, security is naturally particularly important.
In the city, except for special areas or special events, even government inspectors are not allowed to summon mechas in the city.
The training ground is inside the city of Jiangcheng. The government relies on a small secret realm to create a mecha training place open to the public.
In this training ground, there is the most basic black iron level mechanical creature 'Pioneer Mantis'.
This kind of mechanical creature is a specialty of Jiangcheng.
They are not big, with individual heights ranging from 1 to 2 meters. They mostly appear in groups. As long as they are controlled so that the number of groups does not exceed the limit, their destructive capabilities will be within control.
People from the Jiangcheng government will regularly clean the secret area to prevent large-scale gatherings.
The remaining scattered Pioneer Mantises were used as training objects for citizens to practice mechas.
Since the death rate in this secret realm has not reached one in a thousand, the danger level in the secret realm is relatively low.
And almost every year, people who awaken in Jiangcheng will complete their initial mecha training in this secret realm, so the 'Pioneer Mantis' secret realm has become a training ground among the people in Jiangcheng.
“Not expensive, student tickets are half price!”
Luan Shuangyu took out her wallet and counted it, took out a red banknote, thought about it for a while, then put it back, took out a green one and handed it to Qin Xiaotian.
Qin Xiaotian took the banknote and said, "Can't you give me more?"
Blue Star Internet payment is not very developed. The main reason is that the data link is easily cracked by certain mechanical creatures, so in the main world, paper currency payment is still the main method.
Because of the existence of those special mechanical creatures, even some high-precision thermal weapons that rely on data survey have gradually withdrawn from the war stage.
What remains are some heavy weapons controlled by machinery.
"Why do you want so much money?"
Luan Shuangyu glanced at Qin Xiaotian, and finally handed over another red one.
Um.
Think of it as the reward for the prodigal son's return.
"A man can't live without money in his pocket!" Qin Xiaotian happily took the banknote.
Soon, Luan Shuangyu took Qin Xiaotian to the square where the training ground was located.
Looking from a distance, I saw a huge portal standing in the center of the square.
Maybe it was because of the morning rush hour, but there were a lot of people coming and going, but they were mainly students, and they were more or less accompanied by their family members.
Of course, because of the abundant flow of people, many people's livelihood industries have spawned here.
"Boss, four steamed buns, two fried dough sticks and tea eggs, and two bowls of spicy soup!"
Qin Xiaotian walked to the breakfast stall and ordered breakfast for two according to his appetite.
Luan Shuangyu glanced at the teleportation gate in the distance.
Finally, he sat down with Qin Xiaotian.
It's still early.
Not short of time to eat.
"I can't eat that much."
Luan Shuangyu pushed the fried dough sticks and steamed buns in front of Qin Xiaotian.
"It will lead to malnutrition."
Qin Xiaotian glanced at the peeled eggs, then placed them in Luan Shuangyu's spicy soup and said, "Then eat one more egg."
After seeing his sister accept it silently.
Qin Xiaotian then pinched the buns happily and stuffed them into his mouth.
At this time, on the TV in the breakfast shop, the morning news just started broadcasting: "In the early hours of tonight, at the intersection of Beijiao Outer Ring Road and Beibin Road in downtown Jiangcheng City, 7.6 kilometers away from the Moon Star Secret Realm, an unknown source of power fluctuation was discovered. It is suspected that a mechanical creature has flown into the main world. Nearby residents are asked to pay attention to safety, do not act impulsively if they find danger, and report it to maintenance personnel as soon as possible."
"The Awakening Branch in the northern suburbs reminds the general public that before the danger is eliminated, please take a detour to Chucheng High Road when going to the Xingyue Secret Realm..."
Qin Xiaotian chewed the bun carefully. It was full of juice, a bit like a soup dumpling, but not too juicy, just right.
It has a bit of the flavor of old Jiangcheng.
"Recently, there are more and more space cracks around the secret realm. I don't know what's going on on the frontline battlefield. My grandson only served in the army last year, and this year happens to be the year he went to the front line." Next to him, an old man put down his chopsticks and stared at the morning breakfast. News said with a worried face;
"Compared to your grandson, my granddaughter is much better. This year is her third year as a compulsory soldier. At the beginning of the year, she retired from the front line and led new recruits on the second line. The most dangerous year has passed."
"That's not necessarily true. The Star-Moon Secret Realm is much more dangerous than the training ground. There are silver-level mechanical creatures inside. Now that there are more space cracks around the secret realm, there should be a problem on the front line. I'm afraid the second line will also have a hard time."
Qin Xiaotian listened silently to the discussions of the diners.
Judging from the information they exchanged, there seemed to be something wrong with the Xingyue Secret Realm outside Jiangcheng.
Generally, only when mechanical creatures are within a certain range of the portal can they have the opportunity to open space rifts and cross the dimensional barrier to enter the main world of Blue Star.
The number of space cracks in the main world is, to a certain extent, linked to the strength of the internal defense line.
"I've eaten!" Luan Shuangyu suddenly said;
"Um?"
Qin Xiaotian thought that Luan Shuangyu was in a hurry to go to the training ground, so he drank the spicy soup in a big gulp, then picked up the fried dough sticks in his hand and said, "There is one fried dough stick and bun left, you can go."
"Um!"
Luan Shuangyu took out a banknote and three coins from his pocket and placed them on the dining table, stood up and walked out of the breakfast shop.
Qin Xiaotian followed her and shook his head helplessly.
My sister is neat and tidy, good at everything, but a bit cold-tempered.
Oh, malnutrition is also a drawback.
"Ten yuan an hour, half price for students, this is a timer bracelet, come out and check out!"
In front of the portal, Luan Shuangyu received two bracelets from the toll booth.
He handed one of them to Qin Xiaotian.
"We haven't even entered yet, and the timer has started!"
Qin Xiaotian muttered, put on the bracelet, and followed Luan Shuangyu in a hurry.
It was his first time entering.
Somewhat panicked.
This kind of thing needs to be guided by experienced people.
As he stepped through the portal in dimensional space.
The scene in front of me suddenly changed.
As we all know, Su Province, where Jiangcheng is located, is located in the center of the eastern coast and in the lower reaches of the two rivers. The entire Su Province is in the plains.
But the world inside the portal looks like high mountains. In front of these mountains is a large stretch of primitive forest that can't be seen. The trees in this forest are generally ancient trees that are thousands of years old, towering into the clouds. , never seen the light of day.
At the very front of the forest, there is a buffer zone that is tens of miles wide and stretches around.
In the center of the zone is a closed city wall.
The city wall, which is a full fifty or sixty meters high, looks thick and cold in the sun.
Viewed from a high altitude, the entire training camp looks like a giant eye embedded in the primeval forest surrounded by mountains.
"This is so spectacular!"
Following Luan Shuangyu out of the portal, Qin Xiaotian couldn't help but take a deep breath.
This is different from the dimensional secret realm he understands.
This is not a little bit the size of a palm.
This is a completely functioning small world.
If he hadn't been following Luan Shuangyu, Qin Xiaotian would have thought he had traveled through time again.
"Let's go, you can summon the mecha as soon as you leave the city gate."
Luan Shuang said hello and walked quickly towards the city gate.
In fact, whether it is in the main world or in the dimensional secret realm, mechas can be summoned at any time. The so-called summoning out of the city is just some rules agreed upon in ordinary times.
When it comes to life safety, these rules can be ignored.
Qin Xiaotian followed Luan Shuangyu and quickly left the city gate.
Maybe it's the graduation season.
At this time, outside the city gate, a large number of newly graduated students were staggeringly summoning mechas one after another under the guidance of the people around them.
Qin Xiaotian looked around.
Most of the mechas summoned by those people were humanoid mechas. Occasionally, you can see a few special-shaped mechas.
"Those special-form mechas are all equipped with complete sets of mechas and have awakened mecha skills!"
Luan Shuangyu explained calmly, and then said: "Now you try to summon the mecha. Your main task today is to become familiar with mecha summoning and some simple controls."
Qin Xiaotian nodded and looked away.
Under the guidance of Luan Shuangyu, he closed his eyes, activated his consciousness, and felt the miniature in the sea of knowledge with his heart.
One minute, three minutes...
As time passed, Qin Xiaotian's body slowly floated and hovered.
Blue light spots slowly appeared around him, and those light spots were connected with each other, slowly outlining the outline of the mecha.
As the blue light spots continue to surge.
The appearance of the mecha is also getting clearer.
The first thing that limits reality is the chest component, followed by the limbs, hands, feet...
The last thing to materialize is the head.
As the last stream of light passed like a firefly, Qin Xiaotian finally completed his first mecha summons.
At this moment, Qin Xiaotian's shadow had completely disappeared from the venue.
Only a nearly nine-meter-tall black giant was left. It stood there quietly, as calm as a mountain, as if nothing in the world could shake it.
The lines of this Big Mac are very graceful, and the metal shell is full of strength. There are dark golden lines engraved in the darkness. If you stare carefully, you will see a flash of blue light from time to time in those lines.
It's obviously more than just decoration.
"Fuck!"
In mid-air, a huge quintessence sound suddenly came from the air.
Immediately afterwards, the giant mecha stumbled and fell sideways to the ground.
And at this moment.
At the core of the mecha's torso, Qin Xiaotian's entire body was wrapped in a huge cocoon of light. Except for the occasional rise and fall of his chest, his entire body seemed to be in a deep sleep.
The entire Big Mac fell heavily to the ground, but it failed to wake him up.
This is all because his consciousness at this moment has been completely integrated into the mecha.
Except for the slight weakening of his sense of smell and touch, it was as if this mecha was another body of his.
"This is too bUg!"
Qin Xiaotian raised his arm and saw the ferocious 403mm main battery on his left arm. Looking at the huge muzzle that was as thick as a human waist, he was completely stunned.
"You need to get used to the mecha's vision first."
Luan Shuangyu's voice came from the ground.
Switching from the human body to the mecha, although the consciousness does not change much, the senses are different.
To give the simplest example, it is like staying on a boat for a long time and when you step on the ground again, you feel that the ground is shaking.
And the mecha is even worse.
Some people lose control of their strength, and some even become afraid of heights and have weak legs.
But these have to be overcome.
This is a hurdle that newbies must overcome.
"okay!"
Qin Xiaotian lowered his head and found that Luan Shuangyu was at the crook of his leg, like an exquisite doll, looking so miniscule.
If he jumped up, he would hit his knees.
Qin Xiaotian couldn't help laughing for a moment.
"why are you laughing."
Luan Shuangyu snorted coldly, Qin Xiaotian felt a white light flash in front of his eyes, and a brand new mecha suddenly appeared in front of him.
This mecha is all gold and red, and its lines don't look tough, but rather soft.
Unlike Qin Xiaotian's mecha, Luan Shuangyu's mecha has all its slots filled with armed components.
"Fuck, this, this is a silver-level mecha suit, Purgatory Roar!"
"No, her suit hasn't been completed yet, and she hasn't assembled the core main weapon of Purgatory Roar, 'The Glazed Flame Heavy Sniper'."
"Hey, that's not too far off. Didn't you see that all three of her main guns have been assembled? She's just missing one main weapon!"
"Once the Purgatory Roar suit is formed, its output can be ranked among the top ten among many silver-level suits. The opponent will be the boss of the team!"
…
Luan Shuangyu's mecha had just been summoned, and it instantly attracted a lot of envious eyes.
Silver-level mechas are generally rare.
Mechas of this level can be regarded as the mainstay of mankind's fight against mechanical creatures.
They were either fighting bravely on the front lines or in some core fortresses.
Of course, university is also a core part.
Although college students are exempt from military service.
But once they graduate, they will be thrown into the dimensional secret realm that has not yet been opened, and will be responsible for the work of opening up and exploring the secret realm.
The level of danger is far greater than that of ordinary front-line soldiers.
"Why are you still standing there, get up!"
Luan Shuang said "bang, bang" and kicked Qin Xiaotian.
"Hey, just wait until I get used to it."
Qin Xiaotian stood up from the ground with his arms on the ground and a grin on his face.
It's amazing.
It was obviously made of metal, but he could actually feel a faint sense of pain at this moment.
It was as if the mecha itself had life.
"Follow me to the jungle!"
Luan Shuang walked in front and said something from a distance.
There are too many people here.
She was a little uncomfortable with it.
"oh!"
Qin Xiao responded, took a step forward and stepped forward. Although it felt soft, he left a huge footprint on the ground.
Still a little uncomfortable, but much better than at the beginning.
Qin Xiaotian staggered after Luan Shuangyu.
The distance between the two is getting farther and farther.
Soon, Luan Shuangyu's figure disappeared from Qin Xiaotian's field of vision.
"Don't wait for me either!"
Qin Xiaotian muttered and followed quickly.
The mecha's vision is clearer and farther than the human eye, and it even has dynamic recognition capabilities.
But in this way, the consciousness receives more information.
Suddenly, I felt a little dizzy.
Qin Xiaotian walked for more than two hours in the buffer zone of more than ten kilometers from the city wall to the jungle.
Mainly because he walked slowly at the beginning, but in the next few kilometers, Qin Xiaotian had completely adapted and even started running.
“Good adaptability!”
Luan Shuangyu's voice sounded.
Qin Xiaotian looked around. He had just entered the jungle and had not yet had time to investigate the surrounding situation.
"Where are you?"
Qin Xiaotian scratched his head suspiciously.
The sound is all around.
But in his field of vision, Luan Shuangyu's mecha was completely invisible.
How could such a big person disappear without saying a word?
"here!"
Luan Shuangyu's voice sounded again, accompanied by a sharp palm wind.
clang--
Before Qin Xiaotian realized what was going on, Luan Shuangyu slapped him on the back, knocking him to the ground.
Strong source power fluctuations instantly invaded Qin Xiaotian's entire mecha.
Qin Xiaotian only felt numb and sore all over his body.
Haven't reacted yet.
The mecha he summoned could no longer maintain stability and turned into light spots scattered in the air.
on the ground.
Qin Xiaotian, who had returned to his physical body, turned his head in confusion, only to see his sister, well, to be precise, a golden-red mecha with an unclear face standing at his original position, with her palms still making slapping movements.
"No vigilance at all!"
Luan Shuangyu replied coldly, then turned around and said: "Continue to summon the mecha!"
"ah?"
Qin Xiaotian blinked in confusion.
Before he could even realize what was going on, he was slapped back to his original form.
"Why are you standing there stunned?" Luan Shuang said in a bad tone;
Although he couldn't see her appearance, Qin Xiaotian's mind could not help but picture the other person's frown.
"If it took more than ten minutes to summon a mecha, it would have turned into ashes on the battlefield."
Seeing Qin Xiaotian's stunned look, Luan Shuangyu thought for a while and explained.
"I beat you back to your original shape, and it didn't damage the mecha's roots. I just scattered the source nodes, which didn't affect your re-summoning.
This is the most time-saving way I can think of. Now you need to summon it repeatedly, get familiar with it as soon as possible, and try to shorten the summoning time as much as possible! "
Qin Xiaotian could tell that Luan Shuangyu was not joking this time.
He also remembered at the right time that his sister had summoned the mecha just now. It seemed that it only took a moment. It didn't even take a second, and the summoning was completed in a blink of an eye.
As Luan Shuang said, in times of war, time is life.
In the ten minutes of summoning time, the shells were all washed away.
After knowing the seriousness of the matter, Qin Xiaotian no longer delayed, put his mind into it, and summoned the mecha seriously.
Snapped,
Pa, pa,,
Snap, snap, snap,,
Throughout the whole morning, Qin Xiaotian summoned the mecha countless times.
Every time he was summoned, before he stayed for ten seconds, Luan Shuangyu slapped him away and knocked him back to his original shape.
Every slap was just right, not only not damaging the mecha's roots, but also reaching the mecha's endurance limit.
Qin Xiaotian gritted his teeth and persisted.
He was knocked back to his original shape again and again, and his body fell from the air again and again.
If it were not for the fact that after awakening, the physical quality of the awakened person is different from that of ordinary people and has been greatly strengthened, I am afraid that even a hard fall will cause internal injuries.
