However, she had long known about Jack Clark’s strength, so she was not surprised.
At that moment, the missile pods on the shoulders of the mecha opened, and over twenty missiles emitting blue radiance burst out, screeching piercingly as they enveloped Jack Clark from all directions.
Boom Boom Boom Boom!!
In the midst of violent explosions, Freya Louise unspread her wings behind her, rose up into the sky hundreds of meters high amid the powerful blast of energy, and pointed her battle sword downward.
Energy weapons unfolded on the dual arms atop the mecha’s shoulders: “Dual structure disengage…”
Whoosh! The smoke and dust below suddenly dispersed, and a golden halberd radiance twenty-some meters long pierced through heaven and earth, appearing instantly in front of the mecha like a laser beam.
Boom!
An explosion more powerful than the energy missiles erupted, dazzling golden light flashed in the sky, and the intense shock of the explosion slightly shook all the buildings in the base.
Many people subconsciously looked towards the Weapon Testing Ground, wondering what kind of weapon Emma Louise was testing that could have such tremendous power.
Thump!
The mecha, trailing some black smoke, fell from the sky and landed on one knee upon the Earth with a thud, causing the ground to shatter and dust to fill the air.
The mecha’s surface, amidst somewhat chaotic energy fluctuations, flickered with a faint layer of blue energy shield, which blocked the casual strike from Jack Clark controlling his power.
At this point, the energy on the surface of the mecha converged, its eyes went dark, and then the hatch on its back opened. Freya Louise, whose spirit appeared somewhat weak, jumped out and stood on the mecha’s shoulder.
Looking at Jack Clark in the distance, the girl waved her hand and shouted, “No more fighting.”
“Huh… That’s it, no more fighting?” Jack Clark paused, still wanting to see if this armed unit could take one more strike from his halberd.
Jack Clark flashed forward to appear before Freya Louise, looked up at the very ‘pretty’ girl on the mecha, and asked with some confusion, “Why is your exhaustion so great?”
Overall, when equipped with the God Machine Armament, Freya Louise’s close combat reached the late-stage of the Fifth Layer Heaven, and with those high-power weapons, her destructive power reached the Sixth Layer Heaven.
But having piloted it for just a short while, Freya Louise had already exhausted almost sixty percent of her True Strength. The endurance was too weak.
And doesn’t the mecha have a power reactor?
Freya Louise shook her head: “It’s different. This suit of armor is not a pure mecha, and I haven’t fully tempered it yet, so I can’t mobilize the energy of the eternal power furnace.”
As she spoke, the girl jumped down from the mecha, and after landing, she placed the silver-blue bracelet she wore on her wrist against the mecha. Accompanied by spatial fluctuations, the mecha instantly disappeared.
The girl who stowed away the mecha turned her head, looked at Jack Clark and suddenly pursed her lips into a smile, “You must have quite a few questions right now.”
Jack Clark nodded: “A few.”
After being away from Eastern Summer for ten years, he suddenly transferred back to Mist River City from Simon in his senior year at school, and began cultivating a ‘special’ cultivation method that seemed not to have much ‘power’.
Moreover, with subsequent events, he was not foolish.
Ferya Louise whispered: “I actually came to South Sky Martial Height to cultivate this Primitive Secret Book, a translated version brought from the relics decades ago.”
“This cultivation method can bring my Spirit Will into a special realm called ‘Reflect Heart Upon Heaven,’ preparing to pilot the No.1 Mech.”
“No.1 Mech?” Jack Clark’s eyes showed inquiry.
“With your current Federation access, you would be able to find out about these soon, so telling you doesn’t count as a violation of the rules,” she said.
Ferya Louise whispered an explanation: “My father is a top-tier biological and mecha scientist in Simon, heading the Simon’s Primordial Project.”
“The Primordial Project is a super lifeform cultivated by humans using a heart from ancient relics, which is estimated to surpass even Mythical-level Life, called the No.1 Mech.”
“The No.1 Mech is massive in size, equipped with the most advanced human mecha armaments of today, and possesses terrifying combat strength, once having destroyed a Mythical Giant Beast with a head-on blow.”
“But this Biological Mecha has form without spirit, lacking autonomous consciousness and thought, akin to a vegetative state, so it requires a driver to activate it.”
“At the same time, as a lifeform, the No.1 Mech has a strong instinctual repulsion to life, and only those whose Soul Fluctuation matches it can pilot it.”
“Over the decades, only two people have qualified, and one of them is me.”
“Because the No.1 Mech itself is a lifeform, piloting it will result in heavy mental pollution, which is why I came here to practice this cultivation method.”
“Of course, this Cultivation Method isn’t the only option. If I hadn’t succeeded in my cultivation, there were several others to choose from.”
“Next, once I return to Simon and complete the driving training for the No. 1 Mech, I should enter the mythical world before you do,” she said.
The girl’s delicate little face revealed a proud expression as she spoke, like a girl showing off to a friend, “How about that? Aren’t I impressive?”
But watching the girl show off her ‘toy,’ Jack Clark frowned slightly, “It can’t be that simple, can it? Your cultivation is only at the Fourth Layer Heaven. Are you sure you can control a Mecha that’s comparable to a Mythical-level creature?”
With his current level of cultivation and his Level 9 Giant Beast Avatar – even having touched on powers that could be compared to the rules – he couldn’t believe it was that simple.
“Alright, I knew I couldn’t hide it from you,” the girl said playfully, sticking out her tongue.
“Indeed, piloting the Primordial Mecha carries high risks, including mental contamination and the possibility of the body being assimilated by the Primordial Mecha’s power.”
“More than ten years ago, the driver of the first generation No. 1 Mech was assimilated and vanished, which is one of the reasons I came here.”
“The God Machine Armament is the ‘defensive suit’ my aunt prepared for me; with the eternal power furnace at its core turning into energy form, it can withstand the assimilation by the No. 1 Mech.”
“Additionally, the Primitive Secrets I’ve been cultivating offer protection against spiritual contamination, reducing the dangers to a minimum.”
“And as my cultivation level increases, so does my spirit. Meanwhile, as ‘Extraordinary Equipment,’ the God Machine Armament will also grow stronger through Tempering.”
“My father and aunt calculated that there’s a high probability of refining the No. 1 Mech into something like an external avatar once I reach the Nine Layers Heaven.”
“If I can make the leap to king-level and enter into a twin soul resonance, I might even activate the heart power of that Primordial Creature and possess power beyond the Heavenly King’s limit,” she added.
I knew it wasn’t that simple. At the same time, Jack Clark felt a sense of awe inside.
He hadn’t expected Freya Louise to be so well-connected.
No wonder on the day the Evil God Sect invaded the Alien Beast Battlefield, Emma Louise had quickly entered the battlefield to take her away – her identity was too special.
A driver of a Mecha derived from the heart of a creature superior to Mythical Life itself and currently the only driver.
Moreover, she must have many life-saving items in her possession, like the secret treasure that enabled her to withstand the attacks of a Late Fourth Layer Heaven Blood Envoy when she was only at the initial stage of the Third Layer Heaven.
However, as powerful as life-saving trump cards are, they’re not one hundred percent risk-free.
After all, the user is human – otherwise, she wouldn’t have been injured at that time.
The fact that she’s the driver of the No.1 Mech is likely unknown to most people at school; otherwise, they would not have let her go to the Koroya Trial, where she got hurt.
But still, something doesn’t add up, and Jack couldn’t help but feel puzzled, “Given the importance of your identity, didn’t your aunt try to stop you from going to Koroya? Wasn’t she afraid something might happen to you?”
Freya Louise nodded, “My aunt did oppose it initially, but I managed to convince her later.”
“What reason did you give?” Jack was curious.
The girl blinked, “A young girl’s secret.”
…Well, alright then.
“By the way, Jack, you’re free this afternoon, right?” the girl suddenly asked.
“I am.”
“You see, I’ll be heading back to Simon in a few days, and as a good friend, shouldn’t you take me around Mist River City so that I can create some beautiful memories of this place?” she finished, looking at him expectantly.
“No problem,” Jack naturally wouldn’t refuse her request.
Just as she said, she would be going back to Simon in a few days, and Jack would make time to accompany her, no matter what, as their relationship was… somewhat complicated.
However, Jack was well aware that today was the only day he could relax.
The ancient relics would be arriving in one week’s time.
During this period, he had many preparations to make, such as finishing the adjustments to the Eighth Layer of the Combat Divine Body and consolidating the Time-Space Summoning Altar.
