Adventure contributed a batch of energy crystals, which were ruthlessly occupied by Discovery and placed in the energy crystal reserve.
Tang Bai told the captain that he wanted to make a mecha pet and it would need to consume some energy crystals.
At this time, the old captain knew nothing about Dandan’s appetite, so he let him go with a wave of his hand.
Tang Bai and Xie Ruheng walked into the energy storage warehouse together. The moment they entered, the mecha egg that had been lying quietly on the body suddenly began to shake slightly, and it was so happy that it wanted to roll out in Tang Bai’s hand.
“Look, the child is hungry.” Tang Bai placed the mecha egg on a pile of energy crystals. The moment the dark metal egg came into contact with the energy crystals, the energy crystals, which were originally as crystal clear and moist as jade, melted instantly and became powder.
A flash of light flashed on the eggshell, and the mecha egg automatically rolled towards another pile of unharmed energy crystals.
[Where did Tang Bai find the mecha egg?!]
[This egg eats so well]
[It eats a little too well, and it consumed one-tenth of the energy crystals in the energy bank]
“…I feel like the friendship between me and the captain is a small boat which might turn over.” Tang Bai said sadly.
Xie Ruheng comforted him: “It’s a blessing to be able to eat.”
“No!” Tang Bai grabbed the heavy mecha egg: “If you eat any more, the Discovery will not have much energy left!”
At this time, the mecha egg had already been eaten the energy crystals that Adventure had contributed to the Discovery, plus one-third of the energy reserves of the Discovery itself, the eggshell was full of luster, and there was also a slight sound, and it seemed to be showing signs of breaking.
Tang Bai had never seen the mechanical vine break its shell with his own eyes. He held the egg in his hand, Xie Ruheng held Tang Bai’s hand in his hand, and the family of three came together harmoniously.
” .” A knocking sound came from the mecha egg. Tang Bai’s eyes showed a touch of love and affection: “It is as if a little life came to us, knocked on our door cautiously, and timidly asked us if we could let it in.”
With romantic thoughts, Xie Ruheng said to Tang Bai: “When I hatched it before, it often made such a sound.”
“Well…it probably means that the energy crystals are not enough, and it wants to eat more.”
The mecha egg shook slightly with excitement, seeming to agree with Xie Ruheng’s words.
Tang Bai: “…”
Tang Bai put the heavy egg on Xie Ruheng’s hand. He stretched out his fingers, and while playing the mecha egg, his head was broken, and he said ruthlessly: “No, shut your mouth!”
Dandan continued to make a knocking sound reluctantly, like a little beggar knocking on an empty rice bowl.
Xie Ruheng frowned when he saw that Mecha Egg dared to challenge Tang Bai’s educational authority: “Don’t contradict your little dad.”
Dandan calmed down aggrievedly.
Tang Bai walked out of the energy storage warehouse in vain under the old captain’s heartbroken gaze. He began to doubt whether he could pull the mechanical vines to grow.
“Attention all players! The virus has spread near the energy star! In order to contain the virus, we decided to implement the Mechanical Vine Project! Players are requested to hand over 90% of the energy on your spacecraft to the Discovery…”
Tang Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the system’s announcement, and the crowdfunding to raise the cubs relieved his stress a lot.
Nearly half of the NPCs on the spaceship were preparing to return home. Now these NPCs and the players were arguing on the spaceship. Tang Bai decided to take the mechanical vines to these spaceships to eat and drink first.
The mecha masters of the Discovery followed Tang Bai on to other spaceships. They had a large number of people and could suppress the NPCs with force when necessary.
Gu Tunan and the others were very skilled in this kind of business of intimidating NPCs. A group of alphas were fully armed and headed towards the energy reserve. When the players on their own spaceship “rebelled” and the bandits from the foreign spacecraft were too powerful, these NPCs were devastated. They watched as most of the energy on their spaceship was swept away by the mecha egg.
When the mechanical vines harmed the energy reserves of the two spacecrafts, cracks finally appeared in the eggshell, and a slender mechanical vine came out, followed by the second, third… more and more vines pushed open the eggshell, and under everyone’s gaze, it stretched out a weak vine and rubbed Tang Bai’s fingertips affectionately.
[It’s quite cute, but can such a small one really stop the Zerg?]
[I found that it looks a bit like Xie Shen’s real mechanical pet. Wait, it seems to be the data import of Xie Shen’s mecha pet.]
The vine now had the pure temperament of a newborn, which was different from the old color when they first met. The temperament was completely different.
The more Tang Bai looked at it, the stranger he became. It was a good boy, but why was it so dirty when he met the mechanical vine at that time?
No matter what, this cub still wanted to save everyone. Tang Bai gently stroked the little vine regardless of any previous suspicion, making the little leaves on the vine tremble with joy.
“You have to work hard to grow up and defeat the Zerg!” Tang Bai said softly to the vines.
The vines responded with an even louder clatter.
“Brother Xie, look, it is promising me.” Tang Bai said happily.
Xie Ruheng was silent for a moment, but in the end, he did not tell the cruel truth that the sound was that the vine wanted to eat.
….
“Do you think they will succeed?” Teacher Zheng asked nervously.
The principal looked at Tang Bai and the mechanical vine in the live broadcast. The mechanical vine had grown to the size of a small flat building and was now training with Xie Ruheng.
Data import was to import the mechanical vines in reality. The owner of the mechanical vines that had been recognized in reality was still Xie Ruheng in the game. So, only Xie Ruheng could exert the full power of the mechanical vines.
The advantages of mechanical vines could be fully brought into play when combined with mechas. The roots of the vines parasitize on the mechas, and countless vines weave a new body, making the mechas huge.
The defense of the mechanical vines itself was very strong, comparable to the defense of the Zerg virus. Each vine could fight alone, and together they were even more powerful.
When Xie Ruheng would pilot a mecha parasitized by mechanical vines to fight against the Zerg, he would not need to defeat the Zerg. He only needed to hold the Zerg back and buy precious time for his teammates to drive the spacecraft to the energy star.
The survival rate of this combat plan called Mechanical Vine was infinitely close to 100%, and it was the one with the highest survival rate among countless plans.
In fact, in addition to the decoy plan, they also came up with a plan with a higher survival rate called the self-destruction plan.
All students who could fly a spaceship control the spacecraft to come to the Zerg and activate the self-destruct mode. The survival rate of this plan was also as high as 90%.
There were three reasons why this plan was not adopted. First, there were very few students who could fly a spaceship. Second, there were even fewer students who can fly a spaceship and were willing to sacrifice themselves (there was a certain chance of death in a game infected by a biological information infection virus. In reality, there was a certain chance of leading to brain death).
Third, Tang Bai was one of the few students who could fly a spaceship.
He was the only heir to the Tang family and the most influential mecha manufacturer in the new generation of the Federation. He was very likely to become the master of weapons manufacturing who would inherit the Weapons Research Institute from Lord Tang Rong in the future.
Your Excellency Tang Rong had made great contributions to the Federation, but his wife died in the empire’s early hunting plan against the Federation. If Mr. Tang Rong’s only grandson died in the hunting plan again, the Federation would be unworthy of such a hero.
Therefore, among the thirteen plans that were uploaded to the military, the self-destruction plan was secretly scratched out by someone at the top of the federation.
The principal opened the document that was sent to him again, “Your Excellency Tang Rong also believes that there is no need to take special care of Tang Bai. There is no distinction between high and low in life. Since he (Tang Bai) has chosen this path, he has already prepared to make sacrifices, the Tang family understands and obeys all arrangements by the military and the school.”
The next content of this paragraph is: “Your Excellency Tang Rong agrees with the self-destruction plan. Your Excellency Tang Rong believes that if Tang Bai could make his own choice, Tang Bai will also do the same. Choose the self-destruction plan. Mr. Tang Rong said that you should not dominate anyone’s life, and you should let the children make their own decisions.”
The principal raised his head and looked at Tang Bai with a bright smile on the screen. After a while, he made a very light sigh.
Your Excellency Tang Rong still guessed wrong.
The kid didn’t choose any of the thirteen plans. He came up with a brand new one.
A solution that could save everyone.
What did everyone call this child?
It seemed like…the light of omegas?
….
Tang Bai stood at the door of the mecha training room and watched Xie Ruheng and Vine doing running-in training. At this time, the Vine mecha was limited by the space of the mecha training room and had not reached its maximum size.
Letting the mecha master’s ideas be conveyed to the mechanical vines in a timely manner without causing time lag was the current focus of the running-in training.
Tang Bai established a neural link between the mechanical vine and the driving helmet. At this time, any ideas in Xie Ruheng’s mind could be conveyed to the mechanical vine in time and executed.
Xie Ruheng saw Tang Bai smiling at him through the display screen in the cockpit: “How are you getting along?”
Xie Ruheng controlled the mecha and stretched out a mechanical arm surrounded by green vines towards Tang Bai. In front of Bai Bai, he flexibly manipulated his palms to hook his fingers at Tang Bai, “Come up.”
Tang Bai didn’t come up immediately, he poked the green vine fingers in a novel way.
Not long ago, the mechanical vine had just broken out of its shell. The vine was so slender that it could wrap around his fingertips. But now its size was completely reversed. Tang Bai could only open his arms to wrap around this “finger” that was reorganized from the mechanical vine.
This should be the emotion adults often felt when they said to their juniors, “You have grown so big in the blink of an eye.”
Old father Tang Bai smiled happily.
Xie Ruheng in the vine mecha was enjoying the perspective of a giant at the moment. Tang Bai on the display screen looked very small, like an exquisite figure.
After Tang Bai touched the huge “finger” with his small fingertips, he didn’t know what he thought of. He bent his eyes and smiled so sweetly, then he obediently climbed onto the huge mechanical palm and knelt down on the machine. On the palms woven with vines, he curiously stroked the leaves that greeted him.
This scene was so cute that the corners of Xie Ruheng’s lips rose crazily, and he felt a sense of pleasure in his heart as he held Tang Bai in his palms.
He didn’t expect that vines could have such a function. All he had known before was…
Just as Xie Ruheng was lost in memories, countless mechanical vines suddenly emerged from the mecha on his hand, first weaving into a semicircle in an instant, the hood covered Tang Bai upside down like lightning, and then tied and pulled apart Tang Bai’s limbs with thin and tough branches like a smooth flow.
Tang Bai: “……?”
