Is there anything in the sky?

A deep sense of doubt arose in everyone's hearts.

Suddenly someone guessed the possibility, and their eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Could it be... that thing in the sky... that 'big guy' of Special Envoy Gu Ran is going to come down from the sky?"

"I know! It must be because that 'big guy' is really huge, or it's too far from Lanxin University, so they had to use a flying vehicle to tow it over!"

"No, this is not the sound of an aircraft engine. This sound is more rapid and fainter."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but everyone was even more curious about the mysterious object in the sky.

Professor Zhu Zhu's pupils constricted slightly.

He also had a guess, but he didn't believe it.

Gu Ran smiled and said, "Professor Zhu Zhu and his team just demonstrated the movements of their 'big guy,' so I'll give a little demonstration of my 'big guy' in return."

In everyone's eyes, a black dot gradually appeared in the sky, and the black dot slowly grew larger.

Finally, someone figured out what the black dot was.

"A mech! That's Envoy Gu Ran's mech! It flew right over here! My God!"

This sound immediately ignited the crowd.

They never expected Gu Ran's mecha entrance to be so unique and shocking.

"Hmph, all that fancy talk. Our mechs can do that too, I just haven't made them do it," Professor Zhu Zhu sneered.

Gu Ran smiled softly.

In fact, he could tell at a glance how far Professor Zhu Zhu's research team had progressed.

What did Professor Zhu Zhu and his team just demonstrate with their mechs?

It's simply walking and jumping, then swinging your arms and landing, that's all.

They wouldn't dare to show off more, nor could they show off more.

The performance of slicing a metal ball and then holding it on a tray did look interesting, but the technical skill involved was just so-so.

Gu Ran guessed that the reason they made the mecha's hands look like a sword in the left hand and a knife in the right hand was probably because they hadn't yet solved the problem of clenching their fists, and therefore couldn't achieve a human-like appearance.

A product of this quality would be rejected by the foreman, let alone used for fighting.

"This is the big thing I've put together; I call it 'Zero'."

Gu Ran introduced himself to everyone present.

"Since this is just a demonstration unit and not a real commercial product, it is somewhat lacking in functionality. Please bear with us."

"Zero" quickly descended from the sky, and just before it hit the ground, a gust of air was generated under its feet, giving it a momentary burst of buoyancy.

The landing of "Zero" was lighter than that of the previous "Suzaku-type 1", and it looked like a soft bird feather.

Upon landing, "Zero" immediately began the actions that "Suzaku-type No. 1" had tried to avoid before, not only running and jumping, but also performing a backflip during the running and jumping.

After the backflip, he used one hand to support his massive body as he stood up.

As if performing a rhythmic and dynamic dance, "Zero" showcased the ultimate in physical flexibility.

The audience was getting a little numb from watching.

Is this the kind of slow-moving mech they imagine?

“Give it a melody, and I have no doubt that it can sing and dance like those idol stars.”

"This is too agile! It's even more agile than many real people. Could it be a giant in disguise? There's no mecha at all."

"Compared to it, the mecha from Phoenix Flame University is like an old man in his twilight years, completely incomparable. I just don't know how practical it is, or how difficult it is to operate. I heard Teacher Gu Ran say that his mecha seems to be pilotable by ordinary people, unlike the mecha from Phoenix Flame University, which requires martial arts practitioners at the Qi Condensation level to pilot."

"Uh..." Gu Ran looked at the agile "Zero" and was actually a little speechless.

It seems he chose a driver who was a bit too eager to perform.

The pilot of "Zero" was not a martial arts expert like "Vermilion Bird Type 1", nor was he even a martial artist. Instead, he was a psychic who had only recently developed psychic power.

Following the method for training "artillerymen" provided by the "tyrant" phantom, Gu Ran discovered 13 people who could generate telekinesis from among 87 people who had neither awakened supernatural abilities nor martial arts talent in less than a day.

The driver, named Chang Mu, was one of the 13 people with the best telekinetic talent. He used to be called a bookworm by those around him, only knowing how to immerse himself in books. If he hadn't been admitted to Lanxin University, he would definitely have been one of the people abandoned by his family.

Having been admitted to Lanxin University, Chang Mu immersed himself even more in his books, because this was his only chance to change his destiny. If he didn't want to become worthless, he had to seize this only opportunity to make himself more important.

If all goes well, he will graduate from Lanxin University, then become a researcher at Lanxin University, and finally advance to become a senior researcher.

He will become very important and enjoy a high status, but he will never be able to wield the same powerful strength as martial artists and superhumans.

Then, he met the man who would change his life.

Within a very short time of generating telekinesis, Chang Mu was able to control "Zero," and after initially sensing the power of "Zero," he developed an intense affection for it, almost like a fanatic.

Not only did he want to stay inside 24 hours a day, but he also wanted to crawl into every cavity of "Zero" to study "Zero" carefully.

This burst of enthusiasm propelled Changmu beyond the others, making him the most familiar pilot with "Zero" and earning him the opportunity to showcase "Zero".

To Gu Ran's surprise, after becoming familiar with "Zero", Chang Mu not only completed all the routine operations, but could also perform all sorts of fancy tricks like this.

Suddenly, upbeat music started playing inside "Zero," and then "Zero" took the metal ball that had been cut open by "Vermilion Bird Type 1" from the ground into his hand.

Zero clenched his right fist and then slammed it down on the metal ball!

boom!

The metal sphere was directly flattened at its center by "Number Zero"!

Then came another punch, and another punch.

"Zero" held the metal ball in his hand and kept punching it until the center of the metal ball was hollowed out, and then did the same to the other half of the metal ball.

Finally, the metal hemispheres on both sides were hollowed out in the center by "Zero", turning them into two round "pots".

"Zero" placed the two "pots" mouth to mouth and then stuck them together, and a huge burst of light suddenly shot out from his arm.

The two "pots" that were stuck together slowly merged and welded together, eventually forming a hollow "sphere".

To the accompaniment of upbeat music, "Zero" tapped the metal ball on the ground a few times, then spun it on his fingertips before tossing it high into the air.

After a dynamic and rhythmic dance sequence, the metal ball fell down.

When the metal ball fell in front of "Zero", its leg suddenly lashed out like a whip, striking the metal ball directly.

boom!

The metal sphere was struck violently, its entire shape completely deformed, and then it flew towards the sky at the speed of a cannonball.

Professor Zhu's lips twitched slightly; he wasn't sure if the other person was doing it on purpose.

He felt that the other party had used the metal ball to mock them, which made him very unhappy.

But what followed made him even more upset.

After kicking the metal ball away, "Zero" did something that shocked everyone: it pulled two swords out of its back!

"Zero" wielded two swords and performed a sword dance on the spot before flying into the sky and slashing twice at the training ground.

Two sharp sword energies flew towards the training ground, triggering the training ground's protective device. An invisible energy shield rose up, blocking the two sword energies that "Zero" had unleashed.

Then, "Zero" sheathed the two swords in their backs and landed on the training ground.

silence!

A silence that lasted much longer than before!

Many people stared at the cool and tall mecha, completely dumbfounded, dazed and stunned.

"A mecha?! This is a mecha?! You're telling me this is a mecha?!"

Many martial artists felt like they were going crazy. My God, what had they just seen?

A mecha made entirely of mechanical components actually managed to unleash sword energy that could only be produced through martial arts qi condensation?!

"It's fake, this must be fake..." Many martial artists who had worked hard to cultivate felt their worldview was about to collapse.

Professor Zhu Zhu was also shocked, her mouth agape.

In fact, during the demonstration just now, he had gradually come to accept that his side's finished mecha was indeed inferior to the opponent's.

Because that level of agility was far beyond what their mechs could achieve, and they had been researching it for a long time, but there had been no progress, which had been troubling them.

But now the enemy's mechs are making all sorts of agile movements with ease, and those hands are not the left knife and right sword they compromised with, but real hands!

At first glance, he thought the other party hadn't considered the difficulty and practicality of making a hand. If the technique wasn't up to par and they were just forcibly making it look like a hand, then it would be better to use a sword crossed on the left and a knife crossed on the right, at least that would allow them to attack.

But then he saw "Zero" playing basketball—a sport popular among ordinary people who don't know martial arts. He had played it before, but he never expected to see a mecha playing basketball.

Those hands were just as dexterous as human hands, even more so than most people's hands.

Upon seeing this, he knew that his side had completely lost.

The opponent's mecha is already very mature, even commercial enough to be widely promoted. As long as the cost and manufacturing difficulty are not too high, many corporate giants will pay for it.

But when "Zero" finally soared into the sky, drew the two swords from his back, and unleashed his sword energy, he almost knelt down.

This was beyond words; shock was not enough to describe his emotions.

Now, all that echoed in his mind was the resentment, "Is this something a human could research? Is this something a human could research...?"
