Seven Brown had thought about targeting that secret base before, but its defenses were too tight, with absolutely no opportunity to exploit.

After hearing Leonard Churchill’s plan, she immediately became enthusiastic.

Although the plan still sounded preposterous, she didn’t doubt its feasibility coming from Leonard Churchill.

The two of them hit it off right away, riding their motorcycles at full speed and heading straight for Starfall City.

Above the motorcycle, the wind howled.

The motorcycle Seven Brown had modified herself performed much better than the commercial model Leonard Churchill had, and her riding skills were superior.

On the back of the motorcycle, Leonard Churchill, just as he had in Sinless City, contentedly played the role of a passenger.

As they hurried along, they discussed the details of the impending battles.

Leonard Churchill needed to know more about the secret base so the plan’s feasibility could be even higher.

“Normally, we only train and familiarize ourselves with equipment in the upper areas of the base. The core defensive force is actually us mechanics. But there are some secret experimental projects in the lower levels of the base. I suspect that’s where the actual research into creating Titan battle armor takes place…”

“There was a lab accident once, and I deliberately investigated. I saw discarded parts of a special mech being transported out. They were made from ‘Demonic Absorption Green Copper’ and ‘Blood Pattern Steel’, components for cannon barrels. Not only is the cannon structure very special. Under normal circumstances, these alloys could withstand a load at least a thousand times larger than the main cannon of a God Hunter Mech. I can’t imagine how they got damaged. I suspect they must be developing some kind of megaweapon…”

“A weapon?”

“Yes. From the intelligence I’ve gathered so far, even the Titan battle armor with a record of slaying Seventh-Order Dragonkin might not be able to mount that kind of special weapon. Moreover, the weapon systems of battle armor aren’t designed in isolation; they necessarily pair with compatible models. Though I’ve never seen real Titan battle armor, the various data points of machinery can be estimated through calculations. A battle armor capable of bearing such a weapon definitely exceeds any technology I know of…”

“Are you saying that there might be a special battle armor being developed in that base, one that’s even more powerful than the Titan battle armor?”

“Yes. But it’s just speculation.”

“Also, this bionic combat suit doesn’t have a zipper, so it can’t be opened like this~”

“…”

Only upon hearing Seven Brown’s description did Leonard Churchill realize that the specifications of that secret base were higher than expected.

Clearly, the New King of Orlan had obtained some incredible blueprints in the King’s Mausoleum.

Although most of the East Wilderness’s high-tier mechanical resources were currently in the hands of the Song Family, the Orlan Royal Family now controlled what used to be the Federal Parliament, and those long-standing families also had plenty of resources. Gathering some mechanical experts and precision equipment wouldn’t be a problem.

The base was more mysterious than imagined.

This thought only made Leonard Churchill feel he absolutely had to visit the base.

…

“Are you implying that the mechanics chosen for the Hunting God Armor have been brainwashed with faith?”

“Yes! The people of the Orlan Royal Family didn’t tell the truth when they were selecting mechanics at the academy, but during the actual training, someone used a [Moon] to brainwash the trainees. I found this out only after I secretly decrypted the research institute’s files. Fortunately, I know the ‘Mechanical Descent’ Secret Skill, which exempted me from the contamination…”

“Moon? Silver Moon Sect?”

“Yes.”

Through this conversation, Leonard Churchill learned what Seven Brown had been through.

Being selected to operate the Hunting God Armor was not only a matter of technical threshold, but it also carried hidden risks.

Leonard Churchill had been wondering how the Orlan Royal Family, which had only recently been restored, could ensure absolute loyalty among the mechanics.

Now he knew it involved faith pollution.

Fortunately, his old friend had her own experiences and was exempt from the contamination.

Leonard Churchill couldn’t help but think of the Silver Moon Queen in the tomb… What kind of major move was the Orlan Royal Family planning?

Seven Brown continued, “Once the ‘Mechanical Descent’ is comprehended, one will not be polluted by other faiths. Or rather, it’s not easy to be polluted. Because for card masters of this sequence, the source of their Extraordinary Power is very clear: intelligence and creation. The Demon God of this mechanic sequence, ‘Omniscient Omnipotent One – Tarona,’ grants inspiration and wisdom, thus people gain power through inventions and discoveries in technology. This is a faith in knowledge, not in a specific God, and it’s hard to be shaken…”

“…”

Having heard this, Leonard Churchill suddenly understood.

‘Mechanical Descent’ could indeed exempt one from the faith pollution of other gods to a certain extent.

But it surely wasn’t limited to that.

He also grew more interested in the Demon God Secret Skill of the mechanics sequence, asking, “Does this Secret Skill have any special features, like enhancements to combat capability?”

For Leonard Churchill, Seven Brown had nothing to hide. She spoke candidly, “As for combat capabilities… the biggest enhancement is a huge increase in ‘Skill’. A large part of the ‘Skill Attribute’ is actually ‘Neural Coordination Ability’. Operating a regular mech requires nimble hands and feet, but in reality, high-tier Mechanical Technology is related to the fine control of nerves. Take this Hunting God Armor, for example.”

She continued, “Humans only have two hands and two feet. If mechas are controlled solely with limbs, the number of actions they can execute within a unit of time is very limited, and there is also a delay in operation. But nerves are countless. Um… simply put, it is like using the nervous system to control the mecha as if it were one’s own body. This is also why the Hunting God Armor I operate is much more powerful than others… it’s the most important reason.”
