Chapter 6: The Fighting Mindset

"It's amazing, isn't it? Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Senior Timo said with interest, looking back and forth into Edward's eyes.

Edward nodded, and as his body moved, Atlantis nodded.

Edward imagined himself raised his hand, so Atlantis raised his hand, Edward imagined himself shaking his head, so Atlantis shook his head.

Opening his eyes, Edward watched Atlantis' every move under his own manipulation, and it was really ......

It's so interesting.

Not only that, Atlantis clenched his fist, he could clearly feel the surging power in his mechanical body, Edward had no doubt that Atlantis's punch was enough to beat Luo Shan's fat face into a bloody blur, of course, it was a pity that it was illegal for robots to attack humans, even if it was a robot controlled by humans, they could only fight with robots.

Once a fighting robot is used in combat outside the arena or martial arts hall, it will be counted as an illegal act, and the fighter will be deprived of the right to fight, his fighting robot will also be confiscated, and the AI core will be completely destroyed.

"Would you like to try your hand at fighting an AI-controlled robot?" Teemo patted a whiteboard robot beside him and looked at Edward encouragingly.

Edward hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head and said: "Forget it, I don't have enough money on hand, I'm afraid I will bottom out after paying these two items, and I still have to buy some more mechanical parts and mechanical construction." ā€

"Arthur, I didn't say you, you're not quite right," Teemo shook his head and sighed after hearing Edward's words, "You're not just a mechanic anymore. ā€

Edward was stunned, not understanding what it meant.

"In other words, you can't just think about things with the thinking of a mechanic."

Edward frowned, mechanic's mind? What is the thinking of a mechanic? Thoughtful, prudent and holistic thinking...... Is this any conflict with robot fighters?

"Robot fighting is the thinking of fighting to feed war." Teemo looked at Edward and tapped his head and said, it seems that his junior brother really doesn't have any deep understanding of robot fighting.

Edward awoke suddenly.

The economic source of the mechanic lies in the mechanical construction, the mechanic buys the mechanical parts at a low price, uses his own techniques and understanding to build the machinery, and then sells it at a high price to make a profit.

What is the source of income for a robot fighter? Where do they have the financial backing to be able to reimburse so much intact machinery every day, consume so much violent ammunition, and still have the money to buy weapons and strengthen robots?

There is only one way: to feed the war with war!

Appearance fees for robot fights, bounties for participating in tournaments, and tips from spectators and fans...... The happier you fight, the more financial resources you have to strengthen yourself!

This is the thinking of a robot fighter, fighting is art, fighting is performance! Completely different from the mechanic's ability to save and think around, the fighter is just trying to indulge!

"I see......," Edward nodded, and then stopped, "but ......"

But now Atlantis has spent most of his savings even on a tabula rasa, where did he get the first pot of gold as the capital for the initial construction?

As if having thought of this question for a long time, Timo smiled slightly, summoned the floating projection of the smartwatch, and threw Edward an electronic file.

"It's ......"

"Construct and lease procedures." Timo looked outside, "Vouch for you with my funds, and go for your first robot fight!" ā€

"Senior Teemo......" Edward looked at the set of construction loan procedures that had been prepared for a long time, and was suddenly very moved, everything was ready.

This could not be done temporarily, it could only be prepared by Timo in advance while he was still in tune.

"You've been patronizing our store all this time, so let's take it as a thanksgiving reward," Timo turned around and walked out, and there was a faint excitement in his voice, "You can pick any mechanical build, the total value should not exceed 500,000 federal coins, you are a mechanic yourself, so you don't need to help build it, right?" Assemble it yourself and report it! ā€

Teemo didn't want to help Edward for no reason. He really admired Arthur, who was also a mechanic, and Arthur didn't even know anything about robot fighting, so he could show such a look and risk such a thing for the first time......

Teemo had always dreamed of such a day, but he couldn't.

A long time ago, he always felt that he was not ready, so he watched all the classic robot fighting competitions, prepared a large sum of money, and carefully studied several mechanical construction genres...... But in the end, he finally realized that he didn't have enough courage to bet on this time, even for the first time.

He was afraid that his friends would laugh at him, that his parents would look at him with blaming eyes, and that he would never have a chance to fight robots for the rest of his life.

So Teemo had to bury his dream of being a martial artist deep in his heart, and only dared to disobey his parents' orders to make him a medical student and become a ...... Mechanic.

Before, seeing Arthur desperately trying to build every day, Teemo seemed to see his past self, but when Edward stood in front of Teemo and seriously stated that he wanted to be a martial artist, Teemo was moved.

Since you don't have the courage, you should prepare yourself...... For those who have courage and luck.

Teemo, who was only left with a back, felt a little desolate in his heart, a little moved, and a little relieved to get rid of his past.

However, Edward didn't know so much, he simply felt moved, and turned these emotions into a kind of motivation, he looked at the mechanical structures full of warehouses, and his chest seemed to burn with longing...... Hungry for battle, hungry for victory.

Atlantis's dark blue mechanical eyes are also burning with the purest battle intent.

So...... Edward looked around the inner warehouse, he needed a 500,000 that could be built, his own - the strongest build!

However, after just looking around, Edward fell into a different predicament, and Edward did not have a detailed plan for his future genre.

Melee or ranged? Quick Fix or Competitive Attrition? Edward was inconclusive.

There was too little time for him to think.

The idea of Edward becoming a martial artist came so suddenly that by the time he returned to school, there were only two days before the deadline for entries for this year's intramural robot fighting competition. He had to become such a fighter as fast as he could, and then immediately go to the martial arts department and sign up for the competition.

The Robot Fighting Tournament is a very important competition, and on the campus of Beijing Public University, it is only once every two years, and the level of every fighter will take advantage of this to make a qualitative leap, and Edward does not want to miss this opportunity.

So, Edward chose the fastest direction to start with - no direction.

Grab your eyebrows and mustaches, test the water with the most average construction direction, and then judge the right fighting style for yourself through the accumulation of battles, and then carry out a special construction!

The combination of the 5AI core + general soldier W3000 is already a middle-to-upper-class combination among whiteboard robots, so what you need now is ...... Edward and Atlantis' gaze swept over the mechanical structures, and immediately lit up together.

Edward's toolbox as a mechanic was snapped open, and the construction tools inside exuded a metallic luster, accompanied by a sound of mechanical collision and combination, and the construction - begin!

……

……

Teemo was at the front desk to greet a customer, and a strong, round-shouldered man was picking out some melee build parts, when suddenly a shadow shrouded him.

The strong man raised his head and looked at it, slightly startled.

What caught the eye was a set of light blue mechanical structures, in which the dark blue eyes of Atlantis were even darker, two pairs of missiles hung behind the shoulders of the robot, and a medium-length light blade and a constructed mechanical sword were pinned to the waist, a mechanical long rod was folded into four pieces and hung on both sides of the steel ribs of Atlantis, and the robot's right fist also changed.

"Random patchwork of garbage ......" came back to his senses, and the strong man commented with disdain in his eyes, and the mean fat face made Edward can't help but think of Luoshan.

"No matter what kind of build, it depends on how the user operates, doesn't it?" Edward's voice floated from behind Atlantis, and after replying to the strong man, he stood in front of Teemo, "The full amount is 430,000, thank you Senior Timo." ā€

"Such a build...... Hehe, you don't have to look at the user. The strong man shook his head, stopped paying attention to Edward, and said to Teemo, "And the corrupted armor, Type 39, bring me 10 pieces, plus the previous ones, and send them to me together." ā€

After speaking, the strong man also glanced at Edward, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your level of construction is ...... Let's find a mechanic to guide you. Good luck. ā€

With that, the strong man walked towards the hustle and bustle outside the store.

Timo hesitated, but still completed the lease formalities for Edward, he looked at Edward with a complicated expression and said, "You ...... I know your build level, but I still don't understand it. ā€

"Then why don't you come and see my first fight?" Edward smiled confidently, "Clock Street mechanical beast competition these days...... But it's very lively. ā€

Are you crazy? As a newbie who wants to challenge the Automatons directly with this build? Teemo was tempted to say this, but he remembered the mechanical rig that Edward had sold to their shop, and he knew something about Edward's strength as a mechanic...... So he frowned and nodded.

"I'd like to know about the roba arenas on Clock Street, Senior Timo," Edward remembered the mechanical beast fights he saw on the road, "I'm sorry for you." ā€
