Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Observation (Extra for Alliance Leader Dongyou Lingyu) (Part 3)

Half an hour later, Mia yawned and asked absentmindedly,

"Are you all set? Who wants to come out and fight me?"

"Me!"

Rhein was the first to stand up; he had initiated this, so there was no way he could miss it.

"Good, that’s one. Any others?"

Mia suddenly became a bit more interested.

"I’ll join the battle too!"

Angel stood up without a moment’s hesitation. Despite her quiet demeanor, she didn’t show any indecisiveness.

"Count me in!"

At that moment, a tall girl with black long hair, a pretty face, and a great aura stood up.

Su Ming looked at Angel and Allu with mild surprise. The girls in the class were quite outstanding, with two stepping forward all at once.

"Count me in too!"

Zhang Yi also stepped forward.

"We’re short one more!"

Mia said with a smile.

Rhein immediately turned his head to Su Ming and shouted.

"Class president, you join too!"

"Okay!"

Su Ming didn’t refuse. He also wanted to spar with Mia and see her level.

"Very well, I’ll let you choose your Mecha first!"

Mia said to Su Ming and the others with a smile.

"Teacher, you better not regret this!"

Rhein walked straight towards the First Generation Mecha·Barbarian.

"I’ll choose Iron Head."

Angel turned to Su Ming and the others, indirectly seeking their opinion.

Although there were ten Mechas available, each model was different. Everyone had limited proficiency with different models, so it was necessary to announce their choice when opting for a general model.

However, no one objected, and soon Zhang Yi spoke up,

"Then I’ll choose the First Generation Mecha·Predator."

Su Ming followed Zhang Yi’s gaze to a six-meter-tall, insect-like structured Mecha with a pair of nimble mechanical jet wings embedded in its back, holding a long spear.

From its structure, this Mecha seemed to be suited for flying and sudden assaults.

"Class president, what will you choose?"

Allu looked at Su Ming and politely asked.

Su Ming pondered for a moment. He was more familiar with Iron Head, but since it was already chosen, he had not operated the remaining Mechas before. However, he had previously operated the Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knight.

The Gun Knight and Iron Knight were of the same system, and the operating system and model should typically be similar.

Thinking of this, Su Ming said to Allu,

"I’ll choose the Iron Knight."

"Okay, then I’ll choose the First Generation Mecha·Assassin."

Allu looked at a smaller-sized Mecha, holding two metal short swords, painted in gray.

"Alright, that settles it."

Su Ming and the others assigned their Mechas and began walking towards them.

When they reached in front of their Mechas, they suddenly felt a surge of anti-gravity force from below, and they directly floated upwards, flying to the cockpit of the Mechas.

Su Ming and the others were quite amazed. Anti-gravity floating equipment, truly luxurious indeed.

They couldn’t dwell on that thought just yet as they gracefully opened the cockpit of the Mechas and climbed in.

Su Ming sat in the pilot seat, closed the cockpit, and glanced at the control panel.

Indeed, as he had anticipated, the control panel was very similar to that of the Gun Knight, only simpler, with fewer complex buttons and significantly inferior materials.

Su Ming didn’t care much about these things as he activated the safety catch and rapidly started the Iron Knight.

With the roaring sound of the power unit, the Iron Knight’s eyes lit up.

At this time, Rhein and Angel also started their Mechas simultaneously.

Su Ming glanced over and secretly admired them. Indeed, they were students worthy of being at Imperial Court Academy, even the regular class students had excellent combat readiness, as their Mecha starting speed was so quick.

"Not bad! Now it’s my turn."

Mia smiled and then walked towards the Advancer.

Su Ming watched as Mia chose the Advancer, his eyes gleaming slightly, just as he had predicted, Mia would definitely choose an agile type Mecha.

"Alright, let’s start switching weapons, pick whatever you like!"

Mia started the Advancer Mecha and walked up to the weapon rack, where she swapped her Metal Blade for a lighter Metal Short Sword.

Su Ming also controlled the Iron Knight to the weapon rack, where he exchanged his weapon for a Metal Long Spear.

Mia glanced at Su Ming, who had changed weapons, then controlled her Mecha to move to the center of the arena.

Rhein and the others didn’t seem to intend to change their weapons; after all, the weapons originally equipped with the Mecha were often the most suitable for their use.

So, the five of them controlled their Mechas to face Mia.

"Come on!"

"We must defeat her."

...

Mandy and the other classmates excitedly cheered for Su Ming’s group.

"Bring it on, you weaklings!"

Mia provocatively lifted her Metal Short Sword towards Su Ming’s group and spoke disdainfully.

"Let’s go!"

Rhein exploded with anger, controlling the Barbarian to charge at Mia like a wild beast.

Of course, Rhein wasn’t so foolish as to attack Mia head-on out of blind rage; his strategy was to draw the enemy’s fire to create opportunities for others.

Allu, controlling the Assassin, went full power from the left flank towards Mia, while Angel, handling Iron Head, launched a surprise attack from the right. Zhang Yi controlled the Predator with Jet Wings to move at high speed and flank Mia from behind.

As for Su Ming, who was controlling Iron Knight, he stood still on the spot, showing no intention of joining the group attack.

This wasn’t a real battlefield, so Su Ming wanted to first observe his opponent’s fighting style to find a way to defeat her.

"Interesting!"

Mia still had the mood to jest while facing the assault from Rhein’s group.

"Die!"

Rhein was the first to close in, swinging his Metal Hammer at Mia.

Mia maneuvered her Mecha, dodging swiftly; the Metal Hammer smashed into the ground, missing her entirely!

"You’d really need to work on your aim."

Mia taunted with a laugh.

Rhein was trembling with rage, his entire body shaking. He had been a favored student at the academy, never before ridiculed like this.

Then Allu, controlling the Assassin, closed in, her Metal Short Sword piercing sharply towards Mia, while at the same time, Zhang Yi, controlling the Predator, rapidly attacked from behind.

But Mia skillfully controlled the Frog-shaped Mecha to leap up, not only dodging Allu’s attack but also lunging towards Rhein.

Rhein, startled, instinctively raised his Metal Shield to block, but Mia landed a foot on the Metal Shield.

Rhein’s entire Mecha was forced to kneel down, and Mia used the leverage to spring upwards again, flipping in mid-air and perfectly evading Zhang Yi’s strike.

Furthermore, having lost his target, Zhang Yi, due to inertia, headed straight towards Rhein. He panickedly shifted his Long Spear and shouted.

"Get out of the way!"

Rhein was shocked, but before he could react,

Thud~

The two Mechas collided heavily and both fell to the ground.

Mia landed gracefully, laughing heartily at the scene.

"Haha!"

At that moment, Angel, controlling Iron Head from the right, came charging in. She swung her Heavy Metal Mechanical Blade at Mia.
