After this set of moves, the employees of the Lan family were dumbfounded. They had always heard that Wang Zheng was someone who liked to act cool and didn't know clearly what level he was at. They had only heard that he was powerful but only seen him pointing his fingers around the whole day. So he was so fierce and ruthless.
Wang Zheng was able to get familiarized with various mecha very quickly. Moreover, this model of mecha was in fact a larger Wind God. It was more stable and had transformed from a scout-type to a warrior type.
The focus was on the use of the Super Gravity Sliding Rail.
Weng...
The mech slid out aggressively. At the same time, the titanium blade was lashed out... Weng!.
It was rather fluid.
Wang Zheng felt very comfortable. If the Super Gravity Energy Mineral had the same performance on other stars, this would definitely be an explosive invention. At the same time... the Titatitan Star would become an even more sensitive place.
However, this was something that Wang Zheng and even the Lan family couldn't control.
One couldn't really know if the birth of this mech would be something good or bad.
*Weng Weng Weng... *
A fluent and rapid sliding slash was completed in a single move. Surprisingly, due to this sudden momentum, they was a mysterious strength behind the slash of the titanium blade.
Wang Zheng could feel it soon. During the instance of the rapid slash, the titanium blade seemed to have extended.
This was because the titanium blade had the Super Gravity Energy Mineral added to it too. Obviously, one had to maintain the weapon's durability. The proportion had to be controlled so as to not go against the initial intention.
However, this alone in the overall coordination of the mech had a seemingly mysteriously continuous effect.
Weng Weng Weng.....
The mech was making consecutive movements within the training ground. The speed was indeed not as fast as when Kong Zhan used his Ability X. However, it was more fluid. The mech and titanium blade seemed to have become one and was unbreakable. Moreover, it seemed that it could be seen with the naked eyes that the surface of the titanium blade had its own aura to it.
Wang Zheng operated the mech and rushed at high speed towards the target. At the instant of a sliding movement, the titanium blade was swung out suddenly.
Kill!
Weng... The target was split apart in an instant. However... the titanium blade had not even touched the target.
Wind Slash!
Those who were spectating were surprised and stunned. How..... could this be possible!
Kong Zhang's jaw had also dropped. He exchanged glances with Ate and both of them didn't know what to say. It wasn't that he wasn't putting in much effort in experiencing the mech previously. Moreover, he was even an Ability X user. The destructive powers of the same mech had changed drastically in Wang Zheng's hands.
It was too magical.
"Could this be the continuous effect of the Super Gravity Energy Mineral?" Lan Ling was also rather surprised.
Ye Zisu completed recording the data and smiled."This is due mainly to the special environment of the Titatitan Star. The ions that were accumulated during rapid movements and slashes are reflected by the Super Gravity Mineral after they reach a certain level."
This was truly a magical Star. It gave Ye Zisu too many inspirations. Without such a place, no one would have come out with such creativity.
Without a doubt, this would be another breakthrough since the Wind God!
Lan Ling was exhilarated. Once the Lan family had a mecha army like this, they wouldn't have to pay attention to the Commerce Organization.
"Sister Zisu, I will return to Lan Kao City to discuss with Grandpa a deeper collaboration between us, " Lan Ling said excitedly.
Ye Zisu was also very happy."Let us create a miracle!"
There were two important aspects to this mech. One of them was design and the other would be materials. Without the Super Gravity Energy Mineral, one would not be able to build anything.
Sun Xin, who was at the side, wanted to say something but kept quiet. Lan Ling had headed outside excitedly. However, she was stopped by the guards suddenly.
From the start of the project, the Lan family had not only brought along a lot of technicians and workers. They had also brought alone many guards. Moreover, they were rather unfamiliar with Lan Ling. They weren't Metheus and his group. It was just that Lan Ling didn't mind.
"I'm sorry, Miss. The Chief has orders that you can't leave the base."
Lan Ling was stunned. She took a look at Sun Xin. Sun Xin lowered her head."What is actually happening?!"
The nervous atmosphere around this place had only started two days ago. Initially, she had thought that it was to protect the research lab. However, it would seem to be because of another entirely different matter.
"Miss."
"Forget it. I will ask Grandpa directly!" Lan Ling opened her Skylink. Lan Jiang, who was on the opposite end, accepted the call without much delay.
"Uncle Grandpa, what is happening?" Lan Ling had returned to her calm and composed self when the Skylink call was connected.
"Ling, there were some things that I had tried my best in. I can only wait for the results now, " Lan Jiang said. She couldn't see many expressions.
Lan Ling was stunned for a moment but recovered shortly."The Commerce Organization is going to take action?"
Lan Jiang did not reply. Clearly, he acquiesced.
"Uncle Grandpa, why didn't you stop them? How could the Commerce Organization withstand the alliance between us and the people of Tita? Moreover, there is also the Milky Way Alliance's Special Action Team. How could they be so daring?"
Lan Ling said worriedly. When she was with the tribes of Tita, she truly felt the passion of these people. They were willing to befriend the humans. It was just that they were wary of the desires of humans. The wise ones were very sensitive.
"Uncle Grandpa, our new mech research has been successful. We will have enough capital for initial construction. We will not even need to collaborate with the Commerce Organization!"
"Ling, some things aren't as simple as you think. You should not care about such matters anymore. For this period of time, you should just stay within the research lab. It will be very safe in there."
Finishing, Lan Jiang hung up his Skylink. When Lan Ling tried to call again, she was no longer able to reach him.
After hearing Lan Ling's answer, everyone was stunned. The Blue Star Commerce Organization was going to make their move?
After some consideration, Ye Zisu knew that it wouldn't turn out well."If the people of the Commerce Organization obtain control on the mineral reserves, our design will be in vain!"
This was something that Ye Zisu knew clearly.
However, Wang Zheng and the rest were thinking about another matter. The Commerce Organization was declaring war on the people of Tita?
"There is a large number of Tita people. Where did the Commerce Organization find such a large military force?" Wang Zheng asked.
"The Commerce Alliance is a massive organisation. Money makes the world go round. The Blue Star Commerce Organisation is one of the main members. They have been locking down information while making preparations. I'm afraid they have already completed the first step. The usual practice of the Commerce Organization would be to use the mercenaries and robot teams, bribing any opposing powers, and creating public discussion, " Lan Ling replied. She was starting to feel worried for the people of Tita.
The empire that was most fond of exporting military goods was Arbiter. They had created huge amounts of such robotic troops and supplied them to the Commerce Organization. At the same time, they received a huge amount of capital from the Commerce Organisation, and this had allowed them to grow even stronger.
With the current military strength of Arbiter, everyone would merely close one eye. Moreover, every single strong empire made military sales.
At this moment, numerous transport ships appeared at the suburbs of the five main cities. The transport ships started to descend. Batch after batch of combat robots walked out and headed towards the wilderness.
They were executing a kill and exterminate mission. At the same time, they were imposing martial law in various major human cities.
Humans would be better off with the people of Tita eliminated.
What was crucial was that before others knew about what had happened, the war would already be over. As for the public comments and discussion, it would be left to the professionals to come out with a story.
"Mr. Consul, what is happening? How could the Commerce Organization be going against the Constitution by deploying combat robots to attack a peaceful star? I request to report to the Milky Way Alliance immediately and adopt emergency procedures at the same time!"
The Red Fox said angrily. However, Ison was very much at ease. When the Red Fox had finished venting her frustration, Ison said gently, "I have reported this matter upwards. However, there was a problem with the signal. The technicians are trying to tackle the key problems. As the squadron leader, I request that you ensure the safety of humans living in the cities.
"Consul, this is clearly an invasion..."
"Squadron Leader, please mind your position and execute the orders. As for other matters, you won't have to worry over them!"
Ison said seriously.
The Red Fox and several people within the section had truly treated this star as their home. They truly hoped to be able to make this beautiful star even better, and humans and the people of Tita could coexist peacefully and prosperously like many other multi-ethnic stars.
However, it was clear that not everyone was thinking the same way.
Ison must have been bribed. He did not have to do anything. He would just have to delay the whole matter to till everything was over and everything had been settled.
A transmission lockdown... The Commerce Organization had started to make its move a while ago. They had not intended to engage in negotiation or collaborations from the very start. On the other hand, they were making preparations. Once they had enough military strength...
When the order was disrupted, who would still be talking about the wonderful times?
When she left the office of the Consul, the Red Fox knew that she couldn't just continue waiting. She had to do something!
The battle had started from the exteriors of the five major human cities. Huge amounts of robot forces started pouring in. The reorganization teams were still making preparations to descend. The costs were very high, but the profits were even higher.
The Blue Star Commerce Organization was not only in legal business, but also in slavery. On stars where slavery was retained, goods like the giants would definitely be a popular labor force of guards.
Obviously, they had to announce to the people of Tita what was conquering using military force.
The battle had started without any warning. The people of Tita who were living near the exterior of the cities were eliminated before being able to react.
The robot forces were equipped with genocidal weapons. They were only two types of equipped weapons, and they were armor-piercing rounds and flamethrowers.
It would be more convenient to rebuild after burning everything to the ground. At the same time, they could also avoid any disease that the corpses might bring. It was truly a move with multiple benefits.
Zarberg and Moore had already raised their wine cups. The outcome of the war was not a problem. The only problem was how to start the war.
Once everything had been arranged, what was left was only celebration. It was definitely something that the Commerce Alliance was familiar with. One could only blame the the Titatitan Star for not entering the Milky Way Alliance, causing them to not have a seat or even a speaking right.
"Congratulations, Representative. When this business is completed, you will definitely earn the praises of the board."
"Uncle Moore, I still have to depend on you for devising strategies. Your nephew has learned a lot from you."
"What are you saying? I was just your assistant." Moore laughed. He clearly knew his position.
"I did not expect the Lan family to betray the people of Tita. I even thought that they would be resolute. A hundred years of friendship could be destroyed with just the flick of a finger."
Zarberg was feeling a little regretful. This was because his hobby was to write poems. The Titatitan Star was truly pretty beautiful. The girls might not be as wild and fashionable, but they had the purity that couldn't be found elsewhere.
"Old Man Lan refused to give in initially. However, we knew about his bottom line. All along, the Lan family was just putting on a brave front and couldn't deploy the giants of Tita. This could be seen during the banquet. Moreover, after witnessing our strong military forces, he would naturally make the choice between being eliminated together with the people of Tita or becoming a lackey of ours." Moore smiled gently. The truth was just like the backbone of someone and make one choose to make the correct decision.
