Chapter 342

~6 min read 1,131 words

Li Yuan gritted his teeth and cursed furiously.

The entire Qingjing University team used an extremely common battle method priest lineup, with the support-position priest having almost no combat power at all.

Meanwhile, the remaining five members of Suhang University all possessed a certain amount of damage output.

It would be strange if they weren't being pushed around!

"Where are you looking?"

Just then, the battle axe radiating golden sacred light attacked once more.

"Not good!"

Only at this moment did Li Yuan come back to his senses, wanting to raise his shield to block, but it was already too late!

Just as the battle axe was about to cleave into Li Yuan, the air behind Zhou Yi on his upper right side suddenly twisted.

A silver-white robot the size of a basketball, shaped like a bee, revealed its form.

Its sharp tail sting, gleaming with a cold light, aimed at Zhou Yi's neck like a dagger, then thrust viciously!

"Hmm?"

Zhou Yi's brow furrowed, and a ring of pale golden halo suddenly appeared around his body:

"Sacred Light Guardian!"

Ding!

With just that single thrust, the entire Sacred Light Guardian halo shattered completely.

And having failed in one strike, the bee robot, like a chameleon, was about to merge back into the air once more!!

However, just at that moment, the Weeping Blood Battle Axe arrived!

Bang!

Under the cleave of the Weeping Blood Battle Axe weighing over a thousand kilograms, the entire bee robot exploded directly, turning into a ball of flame and crashing to the ground.

"A stealth robot—what high attack damage!"

Zhou Yi's gaze sharpened slightly.

The Sacred Light Guardian, a B+ grade skill, he had upgraded to LV9, capable of absorbing a large amount of physical damage.

Under normal circumstances, even a berserker with fierce attack power would need at least three or four consecutive strikes to break it.

However......

Now it had actually been broken through by a single thrust from a tiny bee-shaped stealth robot—how could he not feel shocked?

"Brother Xuan has made his move!"

Li Yuan, who had narrowly escaped death under Zhou Yi's axe, was overjoyed.

"Leave Zhou Yi to me. You go with Xia Lan and the others to deal with the rest."

A tall, thin youth, protected by several flying robots around his body, stepped forward, his voice carrying a faint commanding tone.

However, Qingjing University's team captain Li Yuan showed not the slightest dissatisfaction.

After a slight nod, he shifted his footsteps and immediately charged toward the melee on the other side.

"Wang Xuan?"

Looking at this youth, Zhou Yi's sword-shaped brows rose slightly.

The Qingjing University representative team had six members in total.

Among them were two warriors, one priest, one divine archer, one mage, and one mechanic.

And this level-19 mechanic Wang Xuan was the kind that belonged to the very unremarkable ones in the entire team.

In the previous battles, he also hadn't displayed particularly outstanding combat power.

Who would have thought that the other party had actually been hiding his strength as well!

"Being able to enter the fourth round of the singles, I should have guessed long ago that your strength was no ordinary."

In yesterday's third round of the singles, a total of 11 contestants advanced to the fourth round.

And this Wang Xuan was one of them.

"Heh, originally I was planning to hide my strength to deal with Modu University's Wei He."

"I didn't expect you to actually push our entire team this hard. If I didn't step forward now, I'm afraid we'd lose."

Wang Xuan smiled and shrugged.

The blue light points hovering around him scattered in all directions like flowers scattered by a heavenly maiden.

After landing, blue-white arcs of light flickered, transforming into one towering robot after another!!

The number of these robots was extremely large, densely packed—at the very least, two hundred!

The moment these robots landed, some went to support Li Yuan and the others.

The remaining nearly one hundred and fifty-plus robots all looked at Zhou Yi in unison.

Among these robots were large robots carrying missiles on their backs, as well as stealth robots similar to the bee robot that could turn invisible.

The red holographic recognition camera modules, containing not a single ripple of emotion, looked over, giving off an eerie and intensely overwhelming pressure!

【Aptitude: Silver ☆☆】

"Hm? These robots' levels are actually all around 21 or 22?"

Seeing the robot information displayed under the Appraisal Technique, Zhou Yi could not help but raise an eyebrow.

·· ········ Requesting flowers ······ 0

One must understand—

The machines a Mechanic creates cannot exceed their own level!

And this Wang Xuan is only Level 19—how could he possibly create so many machines that surpass his own level?

In fact, apart from Zhou Yi, the many spectators inside the stadium were equally astonished.

"What's going on? How can this Mechanic's machines exceed his own level by so much?"

"Not only that, but these machines' aptitude is actually all Silver Rank—it's absurd!"

"Exactly. Just manufacturing a single ordinary Level 20 Silver Rank BT-200 Ranger costs over a million in materials alone!"

"......"

A Mechanic is a profession that consumes enormous resources.

Every single robot requires one to purchase alloys and metals to build.

Moreover, the manufacturing is not something that succeeds in one go.

Often, the Fabrication skill must be used several times before it succeeds once.

And for the remaining failed fabrications, those alloys and metals are likewise scrapped.

Although the scrapped alloys and metals can still be recycled, the recycling price is less than a quarter of the original......

Therefore, to build a mechanical legion of one's own, throwing in massive amounts of money is unavoidable!

This is also why, back in high school, some class teachers would advise students from poor families not to choose the Mechanic profession.

Without sufficient financial resources, unable to manufacture powerful robots, a Mechanic is more than half wasted......

And clearly, this Wang Xuan had poured enormous effort and money into mechanical fabrication!

These nearly two hundred-plus Silver Rank robots, just in materials, probably approach two to three hundred million!!

"For an ordinary Mechanic, the level of robots they manufacture cannot exceed their own level."

"But combined with some extremely rare Awakened Talents, it can still be done."

"It seems this contestant Wang Xuan from Qingjing University must possess just such an Awakened Talent."
