Chapter 7 The first trial battle, cut Mi'er in seconds

"Good!" Xun Qiu, who poured a large bottle of Coke in one gulp, couldn't help but applaud loudly. The boss doesn't deceive him, this cola tastes really special.

Mi Ruier looked at Xun Qiu, who was drinking vanilla Coke, and her face was full of incredulity.

This cola also has a special flavor, what is the difference between it and ordinary coke?

Why did he drink it like he had never drunk Coke in his previous life?

Isn't it really poor?

Really...... Flour or something, it's really his important ration!

Wait, then how did he spend so much money on so much fast food? This doesn't fit his personality!

Mirel's mind was full of mush now, and she couldn't think anymore.

Fortunately, they finally came to Kaili's virtual Internet café, otherwise she wouldn't know what to say to Xun Qiu. Recently, Xun Qiu is really weird. Especially tonight, it subverted the inherent impression in her heart.

Xun Qiu, who was taciturn and not good at words before, what did he encounter to become like this?

Mirel was really curious.

In front of them is the "Carey Virtual Internet Café" in the college area, which is known as the latest machine and the best environment. There are a total of 1,000 of the latest simulation cabins here, and most of the people who haunt here are armorers who don't have simulation cabins at home. They can do their daily simulated basic training and virtual online battles here.

There are several floors in the entire Internet café. From the outside, the whole is silvery-white, with a unique shape, like a giant shuttle ship, sitting next to a wide and smooth brick road. The royal blue light of the floor lamps around the Internet café and the starlight and moonlight complement each other, so dazzling.

Of course, the consumption here is also quite bluffing. 1000 an hour, after understanding that this is the basic current price of the simulation cabin in the academy, Xun Qiu temporarily gave up the idea of coming here to play.

Now that Miriel had a treat, he had only walked into this place for the first time.

"Hello, welcome to Carey Virtual Internet Cafe!" As soon as I walked into the lobby, I heard a female voice as clear and pleasant as a nightingale. Walking towards them was a female receptionist dressed in the work clothes of an Internet café. Her pretty short blonde hair playfully fell with her graceful steps, and there was a faint hint of floral fragrance wafting over.

Xun Qiu was shocked by the magnificent scene in the lobby at this time, and he didn't notice the female receptionist approaching him at all.

Although since he came to this world, he has also seen many places that he praises. But the lobby of an Internet café is so wonderful and gorgeous, which still surprises him. Even those nobles who lived in the depths of his wasteland world bunker must have never seen such flowers here.

Looking at Xun Qiu's appearance of "hillbilly entering the city", Mi Ruier painted the label of "Xun Qiu is a poor ghost" in the small book in her heart, and then said softly to the female receptionist:

"We're going to have two simulators for two hours."

"Okay, are you the first master? Or a cadet? The receptionist folded her hands in front of her, with a very sweet and professional smile, and asked with a slight bow.

"It's still a student...... What's wrong? Mirel asked. In fact, it was the first time she had been here. I don't know much about the rules or anything. But compared to Xun Qiulai, she seems to have seen the world, and she is much calmer.

"That's right. If it's just a student, it's the same as the academy's simulation cabin, and you can't connect to the Internet. I saw that the two of them were relatively young, so I asked. We apologize for any offense. ”

"Oh, this one, it's fine. We're just having fun. Miriel thought to herself that she was practicing the basic movements, and she didn't pay much attention to it.

"Okay, please here, I'll go through the boot procedures for you."

After Miriel paid 4,000 seven sea points in pain, they finally arrived at one of the simulated cabins on the third floor, led by the hostess.

In front of them, a hundred brand-new silver-white egg-shaped simulation cabins were displayed. In a large room, it was arranged in four neat rows. At this time, most of the simulation cabins are in operation, and many of the usually idle armorers like to stay on the virtual network for a while. There are various training courses, combat skills or actual combat videos, etc., which can help the division to improve their level in an all-round way.

Of course, on the virtual web, the most attractive thing is the battle. Especially the qualifying match, which is even more eye-catching.

However, these things are all for Master A.

The current Xun Qiu and Mi Ruier have no authority.

What they can do is try some basic content related to the courses taught in the college within this small local area network.

"That's it. Have a nice day. If you have any questions, you can call us with the built-in pager in the cabin. After the receptionist finished speaking, she gently moved the lotus step and left.

"Whew, finally ...... It's time to give this battle a try! Xun Qiu shook his spirits and strode into the simulation cabin.

"Fighting? And with whom? Miriel asked in confusion. Immediately, her face sank, and her whole pretty face turned a little red, "It can't be me, right?" ”

"That's right!" His unmistakable voice came from the simulation cabin where Xun Qiu was, "Otherwise, why would you come to accompany me, hehe." ”

No...... Yes...... Bar......

With countless question marks, Mirell walked into the simulation cabin. Her heart was pounding.

War? She wasn't prepared for that! She became a master just so that she could go to more worlds and collect all kinds of ornamental plants! Fighting or something, she never thought about it!

Now, since she has promised Xun Qiu, she can only bite the bullet. Anyway, it's just a simulation cabin.

Should...... Maybe...... Probably, nothing.

As the hatch closed, Xun Qiu had just stood still, and the space ring card on his wrist flashed slightly, and his identity was confirmed. The simulation cabin began to link with Xun Qiu.

After meticulous infrared scanning, the main control system of the simulation module captured the positions of Xun Qiu's various joints, heads, and important nodes, and then extended countless somatosensory mechanical exoskeletons from the inside of the bulkhead, which were made of elastic materials and fit closely with his body. And it is perfectly linked to the simulation cabin through the sensor chain on the exoskeleton. Then, in front of his eyes, a light curtain interface is presented by stimulating brain waves.

The control mode of the exoskeleton and sensor chain has obvious advantages over the old manual console. The first is to simplify the hand control, and controlling the mecha is as easy as controlling your own body. Second, because of the cushioning of the sensor chain, it directly replaces the previous hydraulic buffer, providing a higher safety factor protection for Division A.

In the early stage of the development of mechas, the forms of mecha can be described as diverse, and hundreds of schools of thought contend. However, after the rise of this technology, because various non-humanoid mecha and human body structures are different, it is impossible to achieve the perfect integration of man and machine through the sensor chain, and only armor masters with a high level of distraction can control it freely. Therefore, all kinds of strange-shaped mecha forms are gradually replaced by humanoids.

"Link successful, please select your mech." A magnetic electronic chime was heard from inside the simulation chamber.

In the simulation cabin, it is generally necessary to load the data of the mecha card in the space ring card on the first division in the cabin. However, because Xun Qiu and Mi Ruier are both ordinary students, and they don't have mecha cards in their spatial ring cards, there is only one training mecha that is the default within the academy.

What appeared in front of Xun Qiu's eyes was a training mecha named [Blue Stone].

[Blue Stone] is an adult type with a body height of 10 meters, made of Tate alloy, and painted in gray and blue. The semi-circular head is so tightly seared with the chest that the neck is not visible at all, and a half-moon-shaped meniscus blade is decorated in the middle of the head. The shoulders, elbows, knees, etc. are reinforced with thickened armor, which makes the whole body look a lot burlier. Because of its overall appearance, it is more than heavy, not flexible enough, and the angular design is matched with extremely hard lines, like a blue boulder with the potential of a thousand pounds to the top, so it is named "Blue Stone". Its main engine is the very ordinary Turbo One, which can reach speeds of up to 2 Hz. However, due to the lack of an auxiliary engine, it is extremely sluggish when doing some high-speed directional change maneuvers.

The weapons and equipment of the [Blue Stone] mecha are also very ordinary, an ordinary laser sword, a thousand-level alloy shield with a height of six meters, and a thousand-level thermal energy gun attached to the inner wall of the shield.

This mecha should be a model that has long been phased out. It's not even a star these days. However, because its design has been polished for more than ten years, the parameter balance is very good, and there are no obvious shortcomings, so it is also retained by Azure Academy as the default training mecha of the simulation cabin.

At this time, with the perfect docking of Xun Qiu's sensor chain with the simulation cabin, his vision also changed.

In front of his eyes, there was a huge indoor arena in dark gray tones. Under the moon-white overhead light, as long as he lowered his head, he would find that his vision had been replaced by the [Blue Stone] electronic eye vision at this moment. It's as if you were the Blue Stone itself. As soon as he moved slightly, the click of the mecha transmission would be heard in his ears. This voice seemed to have a kind of magic, which gradually ignited the desire to fight in his heart.

"By the way, how do you invite a battle......

Xun Qiu recalled it a little and immediately understood. The armor division that is linked to the simulation cabin through the sensor chain can manipulate the light curtain interface in front of him as long as his mind moves, whether it is to invite the opponent or go to another room to watch the battle, it is quite convenient.

"Ding! Xun Qiu, a student of the first division, asked for a battle. On the light curtain in front of Mi Ruier's eyes, an invitation sent by Xun Qiu appeared. Mirel took a deep breath and accepted the invitation.

At this moment, she is still a little lucky. After all, Xun Qiu, like her, was only a student at the bottom of the first division class. Where can the strength be inferior?

It's okay! Miriel had calmed down a lot by this time.

With a flash of brilliance, in the room where Xun Qiu was, an identical [Blue Stone] mecha appeared. He understood that his opponent had finally arrived.

At the same time that the simulation cabin prompted "battle begins", Xun Qiu's eyes appeared in front of him to select a task prompt:

[Select Task 09.] 】

[Option 1: Experience-oriented, regardless of winning or losing.] Reward: Grade F. 】

[Option 2: Fight hard and win 30 games in a row.] Reward: Grade A. 】

When Xun Qiu saw it, he immediately fell into deep thought.

Although Miriel is at the bottom of the class like him. But a 30-game winning streak? That's a bit of an exaggeration, right? Will the difference in strength be so big?

Although he was a little hesitant, he had received the F-rank reward before. The reward for that time was a 5% increase in agility dimension. His original agility dimension was around 1.1. It is just past the standard line. After an increase of 5%, which is 1.15, it is only 1.2 when rounded. It's still a long way from Agility Level 2. So he knows how chicken the F-level reward is.

In other words, he'd rather go for an A-grade reward than pick up an F-rated one.

Before the end of the 10-second countdown, he chose option two.

However, if you want to go deeper, you can play 30 rounds, and even if you play non-stop for two hours, it will take you four minutes to complete a game. With such frequent battles, he is willing to persevere, will his opponent agree?

Moreover, if he really keeps fighting like this, won't Miriel be close to him from now on and never pay attention to himself again?

Hey, Choice. Don't lie to me, okay? What shatters destiny and reinvents life? You're pushing me down the road to a single dog!

Bai Xue ignored him at all.

I'm sorry for you!

It's a game every four minutes. Time waits for no one!

Xun Qiu pulled out his laser sword, his eyes burst out, and his killing intent suddenly rose.

At this time, he and [Blue Stone] seemed to be one, like a fierce beast pounced, his upper body was half leaning, and the low roar of the engine was like the breath of a fierce beast, which made people smell and change. With a bang, [Blue Stone] twisted his waist and kicked the ground, and a cloud of air shadows exploded on his heels. The whine of alloy rubbing against air resounded violently in the arena. Like a monstrous beast, the Blue Stone galloped forward as lightning fast. Its engine leaves a faint blue shadow behind it. In just a second, he was already bullying Mirel's mecha!

Miriel blinked her eyes when a gray-blue shadow suddenly appeared in front of her. Before she could make a move, she saw a purple arc of light flash. For a moment, she felt as if her body had been cut in half by the arc light. Although she didn't feel too much discomfort, she just felt as if there was an electric current rushing through her body, and she felt numb. But then, a violent explosion with a blinding white light completely drowned her out.

What's going on? What just happened?

Xun Qiu and Mi Ruier's minds were full of question marks at the same time.
