Chapter 1205

(Unedited)



A month has passed and Xin Ja has already been stationed in the 5th fortress. He has revealed his identity to Madam Zhang has visited their home twice.

These days, Xin Ja has been busy creating the new prototypes that the prince has requested of him. He and Chief Goh have been busy with tweaking and adjusting the function of the Mechas.

When Xin Ja introduce to Chief Goh the compressed air weapon, the expression of the latter became excited.

Although he has seen the compressed air weapon before from the prototypes, he was unable to know how they truly work as they could not open the weapons. Once they tried opening one of them and it completely broke in front of them.

This is because there are a series of arrays that protect the weapon from being deciphered. The Mecha can be reproduced without the blueprints because of the way it was built. But the compressed air weapon is another thing.

And so, upon seeing it being built for the first time made him gawk at it.

"This… this is too intricate, isn't it?" Chief Doh asked as he looks at the partially completed weapon on the large table.

The compressed air weapon on the table is the basic submachine gun type that is as big as a person. Of course, it would not be that big once it is being held by a Mecha.

"Being in the military truly made me happy…" suddenly Xin Ja muttered with a big smile.

Chief Doh could not help but have his mouth begin twitching. This is because he has just discovered how crazy this young man is in using the materials. It was like he would go crazy whenever he could see a new type of material in the storehouse.

Luckily the military was able to harvest a lot of ores within the mines in the borders and in the nearby mountains. Without those precious ores, then the project of building Mechas would surely fail.

Within the 5th fortress, they have already employed hundreds of blacksmiths creating something that the young called manufacturing machines. He said that these so-called machines, once completed, would be able to produce at least 5 Mechas a day.

Chief Doh is a bit skeptical of such a notion as he believes that he needed expert smithing masters to compete a whole Mecha after working for a week. But to tell him that 5 Mecha a day is possible made him doubt the words of the young man.

In fact, Xin Ja is not telling him a lie. If not for the lack of resources and manpower, in the Misty village, they would be able to produce the same quantity using the simple manufacturing line.

So how could he not do it when there are enough resources and even manpower on hand?

Soon have a month later… they were able to finish the manufacturing line. Each machine needed a smithing master to check its operation and the output. This is because Smithing Masters are able to distinguish good metal and good products using their keen observation.

Plus the assembly line contains a secret. Which is the crafting ability of Xin Ja to bend elements at his will using the crafting technique taught in his unique vision.

Although many smithing masters wanted to know how the large machines they built were able to turn raw materials into metal sheets and parts, no one dare ask.

They knew that this is the kingdom's secret and someone is watching them.

And so the processing began… and the smithing masters also began to be busy in the assembly of the Mechas.

Since the precision computer is not yet available, Xin Ja would still need to rely on the smithing masters to assemble the Mechas.

That one month, Xin Ja became really busy and in just 15 days, they were able to produce 40 complete Mechas without any defects.

Although they have actually produced more, some of them are defective.

The 4-meters-tall Mechas standing in line in the large storage house of the 5th fortress looks imposing. Those officers would always want to enter this place and admire those metallic armors.

The Mecha, which the officers have dubbed as OMM model 01 in which the acronym OMM means Official Military Mecha, has a bulky body and has a raptor's leg. It does not have a human-like head but instead a bowl-shaped protrusion with small holes in four directions containing imaging crystals.

The Mecha is built for maneuverability, speed, and the ability to easily adapt to any terrain.

At this time, everyone could not wait to take their chance to ride the Mecha.

But of course, they are all excited for the 1st test tomorrow.

"Hey, Junior Officer Yu… do you know who will be the test pilot for tomorrow?" asked one of the soldiers while sitting on the floor of the viewing platform.

His feet are dangling while admiring the Mechas with an excited glint in his eyes.

"I heard that it was a woman…" Junior Officer Yu replied while thinking hard.

"Really… Wow… I wish I could also be a test pilot." The young officer said.

"Well, we are all going to be pilots… we all passed the assessment test, right?"

"Yes, but I heard that there are some soldiers being recommended by the other generals from the other fortresses…"

"What? They were not here when these things are being produced and they have not undergone that horrible training… Why would they beat us in piloting the Mechas?"

"Hahaha… I agree with that. But… Do you guys remember the swiveling chair?"

When that junior officer said that, the expression of the other officers around him turned ugly.

How could they forget that hellish experience?

They will be fastened on a soft chair then be flung around like they were nothing. Even with their Ki, their body is having a hard time handling the force from that experience.

Some of them even fainted after 5 minutes. Some were even injured because they did not follow the instructions.

However, everyone also remembers that young lady that has lasted for 30 minutes under that condition. She became well-known among the junior officers which underwent the training.

"Hey, do you think that she will be one of the test pilots tomorrow?" asked one of the soldiers as if he just realized something.

"It's possible!" someone agrees.

As the junior officers who passed the training discussed… inside one of the bunk beds in the training hall, a beautiful figure is laying flatly on her bed.

"Junior Ja… I will show you that I am not behind you…" she said as a determined glint appears in her eyes.

One could tell that she is feeling a bit excited about tomorrow's test.

The young woman is exactly Yao Mai Lin, who is Xin Ja's senior in the academy.

She has proven herself worthy to be the test pilot out of all the pilots who have passed the recruitment.

Meanwhile, at another bunk bed, a young man is lying in bed while looking at some notes in his hands.

The young man is Junior Officer Rong Yulong, from Win city. He was enlisted in the army when he graduated from the Lightning Blade Academy… and went to the border wars right after training.

He has passed the training second only to Yao Mai Lin who is considered as one of the smartest junior officers in the army.

While looking at his notes, he began to imagine how he is going to pilot the Mecha tomorrow. He has tried the simulation and has practiced many times how to start the Mecha. But because of his excitement, he could not sleep and continued thinking of what he would do tomorrow.

"I should show what I am capable of… I should get the chance to be a squad leader tomorrow…" he muttered.

He could not help but feel a bit excited as he did not stop reading his notes and continue practicing in his mind.



The next day…

In the open field near the 5th fortress, several chairs have been arranged on a platform. Today is the very first day that the new OMM model 01 would be tested in actual combat and maneuver.

The new model is somewhat more advanced than the first prototypes created in Misty village.

This is because… OMM model 01 has stronger materials, a larger and denser power core, and already has basic analog electronics.

It was something like an old computer that the pilot is able to use to interact with Mecha's other functions and utilities.

Plus the radio communication of the new Mecha model has a wider coverage of about 2 kilometers which is a great improvement from its last model which is only around 500 meters to 1 kilometer.

Soon, many people have begun gathering to watch the test procedure that is about to happen.

As the crowd began to get denser many of the officers from the 5th fortress has already arrived.

Not long later, almost everyone is already antsy as they could not wait for the trials to start.

Though some of them have seen Mechas before, still they could not help but get excited.

Suddenly, the eyes of everyone turned towards the 5th fortress as they suddenly feel the ground begin shaking.
