Chapter 268: Chapter 268: Decryption (Added for the alliance leader, Maple Night) (Part 4)

"Never mind, I’ll do it myself. Rhein, you four keep guard. Su Ming, come with me!"

Mia sighed as she spoke.

"Okay!"

Rhein and the others immediately became alert to their surroundings.

Mia controlled the Green Wing Mecha to open the cockpit and floated straight towards the Gun Knight’s chest.

She found the emergency switch, opened the cockpit, and then crawled in.

Su Ming also opened the cockpit and floated over.

As he entered the cockpit, he saw Mia skillfully disassemble the bottom cover of the Mecha control panel.

She reached into the dense wiring inside the control panel and precisely pulled out two inconspicuous wires.

Mia touched the exposed parts of the two wires.

Sparks flew.

The Gun Knight’s control screen lit up, and the Mecha was successfully activated.

At this point, Mia tapped her bracelet.

A slender metal wire extended from the bracelet. Mia connected the metal wire to the central circuit board inside the control panel, then began to crack the encryption.

Watching Mia’s fluid motions, Su Ming asked with a somewhat strange expression,

"Teacher, you haven’t stolen Mechas in the past, have you?"

"Spit, would I need to do that?"

"Uh, but you’re too proficient with this."

"Shut up. There’s a saying ’the more skills you have, the better.’ Understand?"

Mia replied, somewhat defensively.

"Alright."

Su Ming didn’t say anything more.

At this time, Mia’s bracelet popped up a notification.

"Cracking successful!"

The Gun Knight’s control screen’s encryption input box automatically filled in a string of encryption keys, then entered the operating interface.

"All set. I’m handing this Mecha over to you to operate. First, check its various statuses."

Mia disconnected the wire and said to Su Ming.

"No problem."

Su Ming replied excitedly.

Mia slightly pressed down on the pilot seat and floated outside.

Su Ming sat in the pilot seat, activated the secure button, and then entered a series of commands, bringing up all the data on the Gun Knight.

He carefully looked over it, a smile appearing on his face.

The Gun Knight’s fuel was full; it was only equipped with a red Metal Long Spear and a concealed Beam Cannon but had no other optional weapons. However, Su Ming was already very pleased.

"Su Ming, how is it?"

At this point, Rhein and the others asked curiously.

"Pretty good!"

Su Ming controlled the Gun Knight, fluidly rotating the spear in his hand, giving the Mecha an imposing aura.

Seeing Su Ming handle the spear so well, a rare seriousness appeared on Mia’s face as she felt a slight pressure.

At this moment, Rhein excitedly asked,

"Teacher, if we bring this Gun Knight back, who will it belong to?"

"Yeah, whose will it be?"

Zhang Yi and the others asked curiously upon hearing this.

Hearing this, Su Ming looked towards Mia, his mind stirring slightly.

Caught off guard, Mia hesitated before responding,

"Let’s talk about that later. Su Ming, you use it for now."

Normally, the Gun Knight taken back would definitely be confiscated. And even if not confiscated, this Gun Knight was technically Heavy Strike Club’s asset, theoretically, it should be returned.

But actually, Mia had other ideas; it just wasn’t easy to manage, so she preferred not to think about it right now.

"Okay!"

Su Ming didn’t dwell on it too much.

"Let’s go, we’ve already delayed long enough."

Mia didn’t want to waste any more time.

"Uh-huh!"

Su Ming and the others immediately responded.

...

In front of the command room of the Nautilus, outside the transparent special glass protective layer, Captain Arico maneuvered his mecha to land on it.

He carefully observed the special glass protective layer in front of him, noticing a hole in it.

Captain Arico then looked inside the command room.

The interior of the entire command room was very dim, but one could barely make out the chaotic scene inside, with bodies dressed in military uniforms floating in the air.

However, he saw no signs of any monsters.

Captain Arico decisively issued an order,

"Cut!"

Several Iron Guards with mechanical cutting devices began cutting along the damaged hole.

Zzzt~

Although this protective layer was glass, it was tougher than the armor plating of the ship.

Nevertheless, accompanied by sparks, a large mouth was cut into the glass protective layer.

"Enter!"

Captain Arico, driving the Green Wing Mecha, led the way into the command room, and the rest of the personnel followed suit.

Soon, everyone entered the command room, and a huge circular command room came into view.

The entire command room had a vaulted ceiling that reached thirty meters, with several control stations located in the central area whose screens were all turned off.

The vast command room was eerily quiet, giving a very ominous feeling.

"Sir, all the control stations have stopped working, as if the power has been cut."

A subordinate reported.

"Everyone, ignore the control stations for now, thoroughly check the command room for any dangers,"

Captain Arico cautiously ordered.

Although no monsters had been seen so far, Captain Arico felt extremely uneasy, as if danger was lurking in the dark corners around them.

"Understood!"

Everyone responded.

Just as they were dispersing to perform a comprehensive check of the command room,

suddenly, the mechas of Captain Arico and his team, without any warning, popped up a red warning box.

"Warning: High-intensity Kais biological reaction detected."

Before anyone could react, a black shadow flashed down from above, disappearing in a blink.

"Ah!"

Accompanied by a piercing scream, an Iron Guard Mecha exploded into pieces, and a student was instantly killed.

"Aluke!"

Cheng Ke, the class teacher from Mecha Class 2, saw his student killed and roared in anger.

The many mechas at the scene frantically looked around.

"Stay calm, don’t lose your formation."

Captain Arico fired a flare, instantly illuminating the entire command room.

They then saw a black tumorous sphere, swift as a phantom, attacking another Iron Guard. Just as the tumorous sphere was about to hit, it sprouted sharp black spikes from all over its body.

Boom!

The entire sphere of black spikes, like a meteor hammer, heavily smashed into the chest of the Iron Guard Mecha.

Boom~

The entire Iron Guard Mecha exploded into pieces.

At that moment, the mechas of the people flashed a red warning.

"Warning: Target confirmed as Type III General Level - Chilami genetic mutant (Unnamed)"

"Damn it!"

Captain Arico and Cheng Ke, along with other teachers, all rushed forward with their mechas.

...

At the entrance of the Nautilus Laboratory.

Major Gene, controlling the Green Wing Mecha, walked at the forefront, followed by the special training class teacher, Kafaro, and Lin Chuyu along with other internal school students.

"Stop!"

Major Gene raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop.

Lin Chuyu and the others stopped their mechas and looked straight ahead.

A black metallic sealed door came into view.
