No one expected that there would be such a shocking treasure in a simple warehouse on the outskirts of the town.
"Oh oh oh oh oh!!! Mecha, it's a mecha! Okay——!"
Sato Kazuma was yelling and screaming excitedly in the warehouse, running around the mecha, constantly stroking the cold steel body that made his blood boil, and shouted to the proud Aqua:
"It's actually a real mecha! Aqua, are you a god? Are you a goddess?"
"She is a goddess to begin with!"
Aqua retorted angrily, covering her mouth and deliberately irritating him: "It's true, Kazuma, when he sees a mecha, he screams and runs back and forth. Are you a child? It's so funny."
However, Sato Kazuma no longer wanted to argue with her, but was completely immersed in the excitement of seeing the mecha.
You can't blame him for dancing excitedly and running back and forth like a child. It was really because the mecha in front of him was so shocking that even Xiao Lin was speechless.
Transforming a mecha in another world is no less than a certain playboy making a Tin Woodman in the desert.
The mecha is overall dark black.
Bend your left knee and kneel on the right knee, put your left hand on your waist and put your right hand on the ground. The whole body is kneeling on one knee, and the hatch on the chest is open.
Without painting, not only does it not have a simple and dilapidated feeling, but it gives people a simple, heavy and mysterious feeling. In addition, there is no longer the large and ugly cloak of the [Supreme Throne], replaced by a streamlined figure with a gorgeous shape that reflects light. Huge mecha.
The gorgeous transformation from [Demon King] to [Knight], his appearance is ten times better than before.
When it comes to aesthetics, you can always trust Aqua.
Xiaolin suppressed the excitement and shock in his heart and asked: "Aqua, can you guarantee that it can intercept the Destroyer?"
"Of course! If it can be activated normally, there will be no problem whether it is the Destroyer or the Destroyer!" Aqua assured her. The prerequisite is normal startup.
Suddenly, he remembered that when he was in the guild, Aqua whispered in a low voice, saying that there were some minor problems that had not been solved, and it should be that the mecha had not been fully debugged.
In that case...
Kobayashi looked at Sato Kazuma with bright eyes, and a sinister and evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Sato Kazuma, who was still excited, suddenly shuddered. Rubbing his arms, he always felt that someone was plotting against him.
Sato Kazuma, whose excitement had faded slightly, came to Kobayashi and said happily: "Kobayashi-senpai, with this, we can definitely stop that destroyer! Let's go, take it to the battlefield."
"Yes." Xiaolin nodded, pretending to think and said, "In that case, then we have to choose a driver."
"Pilot?"
"That's right. Since it's a mecha, someone must pilot it. How about... Sato-kun, how about you pilot it?"
"I?!"
Sato Kazuma was surprised.
He thought that this mecha should be piloted by Xiaolin. After all, the frame of Aqua's transformation was the huge mecha that Xiaolin brought back.
Moreover, Xiao Lin has more abilities and experience than him, so no matter how you look at him, he is the most suitable person.
"But because of this, it's more appropriate for you, Sato-kun, to come." Xiaolin spread his hands and explained: "I have other Teigu that are a little stronger than you. Covering and so on is not a problem at all, so you and It is most suitable for you to pilot the mecha between us." ap.
"……is that so?"
Sato Kazuma always felt that something was wrong.
"That's it. Besides, didn't I promise you before that I would let you pilot the mecha if I had the chance? Don't you want to? If that's the case, then I can do it." Xiao Lin took a step forward, making a gesture to enter the mecha. First.
Sato Kazuma immediately rushed up and said eagerly: "Wait, wait! The strength of the Destroyer cannot be underestimated. There will definitely be a huge danger waiting for us by then, and we will die if we are not careful. In this case , just let me
Come and drive the mecha. No, please let me drive the mecha! "
With his chest raised and his head raised resolutely, he looked like a soldier ready to die heroically.
"Kazuma, you are such a complete scumbag." Aqua, who knew Sato Kazuma's true nature, was filled with disgust, but she still waved her hands indifferently and said, "Whatever, I can save Kazuma even if he dies anyway. If you want to live, just go and die boldly."
"What does it mean to die boldly and confidently!... Wait, I seem to understand. Could it be that, Kobayashi-senpai, you were afraid of danger, so you gave me this opportunity!" Sato Kazuma finally discovered the truth.
"W-what are you talking about? How could I do that? You have to believe me, Sato-kun."
Xiao Lin tilted his head slightly, not daring to look at Sato Kazuma. However, his guilty look had completely shown that this was the case.
Sato Kazuma immediately wailed and put his head in his hands and shouted: "Ah ah ah, I should have thought of it. Is there ever an accident when Aqua makes something? She is a fool to begin with, so you shouldn't trust her. !」
It seems he already regrets it.
Aqua retorted: "What do you mean, there will be accidents with the things I make? I am a goddess, a goddess! You should trust me a little!"
"Just because you are a stupid goddess, I don't trust you!"
Instead, Sato Kazuma angrily yelled at Aqua, causing the stupid goddess to suddenly silence her in aggrieved tone and seek comfort from Kobayashi with tears in her eyes.
Kobayashi scratched his head and said to Sato Kazuma: "I'm sorry, Sato-kun, I forced you. If you don't want to, just let me drive."
Xiao Lin still understands the principle of not doing to others what you don't want others to do to you, so instead of forcing the other party to drive and when an accident occurs and the Destroyer fails to be intercepted and the town is destroyed, it is better for Xiao Lin to drive it himself.
Even if an accident does happen then, with Aqua who can be infinitely resurrected, there will be nothing to fear.
"...Forget it, let me do it."
Sato Kazuma sighed and said as if accepting his fate: "Just like Kobayashi-senpai said, I was originally a useless guy, but now I can help and even become the main force, I am also very happy."
"After all, don't you still want to pilot a mecha?" Aqua's sharp words broke through his excuse.
Xiao Lin also had the same idea, and was even a little admired. I have never seen such a persistent person risking his life just to pilot a mecha.
Aqua's words were a bit heartbreaking. Sato Kazuma suddenly blushed and argued: "You, you talk too much! I have a little idea of piloting a mecha or something! But only a little bit, really only a little bit!"
"Yes, yes, can you go up now? Time is running out. Now we have to hurry up and get to the town gate."
Aqua waved her hand, saying she didn't want to listen to Kazuma Sato's excuses, and urged him to die as soon as possible.
Sato Kazuma clenched his fists, looking very angry. But in the end I endured it.
Under Aqua's instructions, he stood on the right hand of the mecha that was kneeling on one knee, and was slowly sent into the hatch on the chest by the mecha's right hand.
Then……
There's no after that.
There was no scarlet glow from the eyes, no rattling sound from the whole body, not even the sound of steam starting up.
"Eh? Didn't it start?"
Xiao Lin blinked, a little confused.
At this time, Kazuma Sato also shouted from inside: "Aqua! I'm in now, what should I do to activate it?"
Aqua scratched her head and said with the same confusion: "How strange. Under normal circumstances, my setting is that when someone enters, it will start automatically, and then they can naturally drive the mecha. Why on earth is it not started? Where is it? Something went wrong?"
Xiao Lin looked at her speechlessly.
Here it comes again, every time the chain is dropped at a critical moment, and powerful props are created but accidents occur for some reason.
But this is also her style, and Xiao Lin is already used to it.
but
Suddenly, he remembered a key issue, that is, this mecha modified from the [Supreme Throne] may require certain key conditions to be activated.
——Royal bloodline.
"Aqua, have you forgotten about bloodline restrictions? I remember I told you about this problem a long time ago!"
"This is definitely not the problem! I have solved this problem with the purification skill a long time ago! I even added restrictions again. If you are not an Axis cultist, you cannot activate this mecha!"
Aqua seemed to have said something strange.
"Wait a minute Aqua, what did you just say?"
"I solved the bloodline problem long ago."
"Not this sentence, the next sentence."
"If you are not an Axis cultist, you will not be able to activate this mecha. What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this sentence?"
Aqua didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem.
Xiao Lin looked up to the sky and sighed, he was completely speechless.
There was also Sato Kazuma, even though his expression couldn't be seen through the thick iron wall, he must have been as speechless as Kobayashi at this moment.
Xiaolin couldn't help but ask: "Why, why is it set so that only Axis cultists can fly this mecha? What is the reason?"
"Reason? You see, this mecha is very powerful. Wouldn't it be very bad if it fell into the hands of other bad guys or even the Demon King's army? So I specially set it up so that only Axis cultists can Conditions for activating the mecha so that it won't be used by bad guys. What, isn't it a particularly smart idea!" Aqua said excitedly.
You are really smart.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but want to complain.
Sato Kazuma couldn't accept it, and yelled on the spot: "Why are you doing this in vain, you idiot! The Axis cultists are much more terrifying than the Demon King's army!"
He's right.
If that group of fanatical believers with mental problems obtained this mecha, they would probably launch attacks on surrounding towns and force the villagers to convert.
In a way, they are indeed much scarier than the Demon King's army.
Even the Demon King's army would take a detour when they saw them.
Hearing what Kazuma Sato said, Aqua felt unhappy. She said loudly: "Why do you say that about those lovely children! Besides, the Axis cultists have nothing to do with this matter! No matter who it is, as long as Those who believe in me can successfully activate this mecha...Wait, wait, no, it's a lie..."
Aqua finally discovered the truth.
Xiaolin patted her shoulder and couldn't bear to tell her the heavy truth: "Is there a possibility, I mean maybe... that Sato-kun actually doesn't believe in you, or that he doesn't treat you as a goddess at all?"
"What?!"
Aqua's mouth suddenly turned into tears, as if she was about to cry in the next second.
It was a huge shock to her.
In disbelief, she yelled at Sato Kazuma in the mecha: "Why, why! Believe in me, I am a goddess, a goddess! Besides, it was you who brought me to the lower world! You should know that, right? , why don’t you believe in me! It’s a lie, it’s unbelievable!”
"Because you always do weird things!"
Kazuma Sato was not indifferent to Aqua at all, and immediately retorted: "Just like this time, why do you need to add settings in a superfluous manner! How can people treat you like a goddess!"
"Xiao Lin!"
Aqua cried and threw herself into Xiao Lin's arms. In just a few seconds, she burst into tears, soaking Xiao Lin's chest.
As expected of a man who believes in equality between men and women, even a goddess can squirt back without mercy.
But this was because Aqua was at fault first, and Xiaolin didn't want to comfort her. After all, he always slips up at critical moments like this, and no matter how good-tempered he is, he can't help but get angry.
"Stop crying, Aqua. Now it's time to think about who will pilot the mecha."
although
Although he said this, Xiao Lin already had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.
There are five people in the team. Sato Kazuma has confirmed that the mecha cannot be activated. Darkness is a devout Eris believer. As for Aqua and Megumin, one wants to break the defensive barrier and the other is always ready to use explosion magic to assist.
So only Xiao Lin can come?
To be honest, Xiao Lin was very resistant because there was no guarantee.
Ask him if he likes this mecha, and Xiaolin's answer is one hundred and twenty. But if you ask him if he is willing to pilot this mecha to face the enemy, he will tell you that he is not willing at all.
This is like driving an assembled car to race in F1. Even if you don't go on the track, you can still predict the tragic ending of the car crashing and killing people.
How can the figures be compared with the authentic ones?
But now it is urgent that Xiaolin has to go.
Sato Kazuma came out of the mecha and said with regret and apology: "I'm sorry, Kobayashi-senpai."
"It's not your fault, Sato-kun."
Xiao Lin shook his head.
If I hadn't met Aqua, I might have believed in the goddess even if the Axis Cult had a bad reputation. But after meeting Aqua and knowing what kind of problem child she was, I didn't break up with her on the spot. Sato Kazuma was very restrained.
Xiao Lin took a long breath and asked uncertainly: "Aqua, is it really okay? Even if I die, can you bring me back to life?"
Then, without waiting for Aqua's answer, she simply stood on the right hand of the mecha and slowly sank into the hatch on the chest.
Aqua puffed out her chest confidently and said:
"Absolutely no problem!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the kneeling mecha suddenly emitted a burst of heat all over its body, and at the same time, blue links like light bars slowly climbed upward from the feet until they converged on the forehead and lit up the entire body.
The blue light band seemed to have deliberately outlined the black mecha. The two colors were not mutually exclusive. Instead, the blue light band reflected the mecha like an elegant and holy blue knight.
The mecha that was kneeling on its knees slowly stood up. Its tall and majestic body caused the two of them to have to raise their heads to see the entire appearance clearly.
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!"
Sato Kazuma screamed excitedly again
Aqua pointed forward and shouted: "——Aqua, attack!"
