Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Exchange (Part 1)

At that moment, Rhein and the others had also dealt with their respective opponents, controlling their mechas to fly over and land beside Su Ming.

Seeing this, the four Iron Guard Mechas became extremely cautious and shouted at Su Ming,

"Drop your weapons now, or don’t blame us for being impolite."

Bink struggled to get his mecha to stand up while laughing aloud,

"Haha, no matter how strong you are, what can you do to me?"

Su Ming completely ignored Bink’s mockery. He simply lifted his foot and violently stomped on Black Rock while putting a bit more strength into the red spear in his hand, almost piercing the cockpit.

Bink suddenly fell silent, his face darkening as he said,

"You dare?"

"What do you think? You don’t seriously believe you can threaten me with hostages, do you?"

Su Ming said to Bink, his tone light and indifferent.

Hearing Su Ming’s words, Bink’s expression grew even uglier. Clearly, the man in front of him was no greenhorn, so he said in a deep voice,

"Let’s make a trade, shall we?"

"Speak!"

Su Ming replied expressionlessly.

"Exchange these hostages for my release. That’s not too much to ask, right?"

Bink stared intently at Su Ming, nervous but resolute as he made his proposal.

"Su Ming, no! We can’t let this guy go!"

Rhein said, clearly unwilling. freewebnσvel.cѳm

Su Ming, controlling the Gun Knight, raised his left hand, cutting off Rhein’s protest,

"His life for the lives of dozens of our own people is a worthwhile trade."

Although Rhein and the others were infuriated by Su Ming’s words, they said nothing more.

After all, he was right; those were their comrades, and they couldn’t just abandon them.

Then, Su Ming coldly said to Bink,

"I accept your trade, but you had better not try any tricks."

"My life is in your hands; how dare I play tricks? But during the exchange, only you are allowed to come forward."

Bink cautiously told Su Ming.

"Fine!"

Su Ming agreed straightforwardly.

So Su Ming walked forward with the red spear pressed against the back of the Third Generation Mecha·Black Rock.

Meanwhile, the four Iron Guard Mechas also stepped forward, each carrying a cage with hostages inside.

The distance between both parties was closing in.

Just then, Bink, operating his mecha, gave his subordinates a signal.

Instantly, the Iron Guard holding the cages violently threw the cage full of hostages to the right.

"Ah~"

The hostages inside the cages screamed in terror.

Su Ming’s reaction was incredibly fast; he instantly pushed the control stick, and the Gun Knight dashed forward like a gust of wind, accurately catching the cage with the hostages.

At this point, Bink and the others immediately turned and flew away.

Seeing this, Rhein and the others rushed over,

"Is everything okay?"

"It’s fine; take good care of them."

Su Ming handed the cage directly to Rhein and his group.

"Su Ming, what are you up to?"

Rhein took the cage and asked, slightly startled.

"Ha, what do you think?"

Su Ming swiftly entered a series of codes, and red warning boxes popped up one by one on the entire control interface.

"Warning: Entering developer mode!"

"Warning: Power protection limits removed!

...

The electronic eyes of the Gun Knight turned red instantly, the massive mecha began to tremble, emitting a piercing roar, and even the jet flames turned into red fire.

In an instant, Su Ming controlled the Gun Knight as it transformed into a red streak, pursuing Bink and his group.

Bink’s mecha was a heavily equipped Third Generation Mecha, naturally slower in flight than the Gun Knight, let alone when the Gun Knight entered the Overclocking State.

They hadn’t gone far when Su Ming, controlling the Gun Knight, flew in front of Bink and his men and descended like a god of death, blocking their path.

"You! What are you going to do? We agreed on a hostage exchange, are you going back on your word?"

"Indeed, we did agree on an exchange of hostages. But I never said I’d let you go, did I? Now that the trade is complete, it’s my turn to deal with you."

Su Ming raised his red long gun and aimed it at Bink.

"Son of a bitch! Let’s fight him."

Bink roared furiously and then charged at the Gun Knight.

...

On the other side, Major Gene, along with several teachers, flew at full speed toward the coordinates, continuously shouting over the communication channel.

"Faster! If we’re too late, Su Ming and the others are done for."

"Damn it, why is it so far!"

Teacher Tang Xuan and the others were also as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

"Calm down, we are almost there. I’m not worried about Su Ming; his mecha is at least a Third Generation Machine, and he should be able to escape if he can’t beat them. But everyone else is in danger."

Teacher Alfam replied with a headache.

"Do you think Su Ming would save himself? Did you see him back down during the fight in the Insect Nest and on the Nautilus?"

Tang Xuan directly countered.

Alfam, upon hearing Teacher Tang Xuan’s words, fell silent.

"We have no other choice now, just hurry over."

Major Gene became even more anxious listening to their conversation.

"Overclock and rush over there!"

Tang Xuan looked at the remaining distance and said without hesitation.

"Okay!"

Major Gene and the others agreed. Although doing so would damage the mecha, they couldn’t care less.

Shoo~

One after another, the Green Wing Mecha entered Overclocking State and rushed towards the coordinates at high speed.

It didn’t take long for Major Gene and others to arrive at the designated coordinate area, coming down from the sky, but the scene before them left them dumbfounded.

They saw piles of damaged mecha stacked up, with dozens of rescued hostages crouching on the ground.

Su Ming and Rhein, along with five others, stood on guard around the hostages, without a scratch on them.

"Su Ming, the reinforcements have finally arrived!"

Rhein shouted excitedly.

"Um."

Su Ming nodded slightly.

Then Major Gene and the others walked over, asking in disbelief.

"You’re all right? What about Bink and his men?"

"We’re fine. Bink and his men resisted stubbornly, so we took them all down. That pile is them."

Su Ming stretched out his hand and pointed to the pile of Mecha Remnants.

Upon hearing Su Ming’s explanation, Major Gene and the others had expressions of utter shock, asking in a somewhat dazed state.

"You wiped out the enemy?"

"Is there a problem? You didn’t say you needed captives, did you?"

Su Ming asked in confusion.

Listening to Su Ming’s response, Major Gene and the others became even more astonished and took a while to regain their composure before speaking.

"No, it’s all good as long as you are safe. Other personnel will be here shortly."

"Good!"

Su Ming nodded his head.

Several hours later, the farce finally came to an end, and all the captured people were rescued.

The Red Teeth hovered above the Red Valley Mineral Base.

One by one, mecha began to transport box after box of smelted materials from Red Valley Base up to the Red Teeth.

Inside the base, Vice Principal Fleck walked in with his hands behind his back.

At that moment, he saw Su Ming not far away, reporting on the previous battle to Mia.

Principal Fleck then walked over with a beaming smile and called out to Su Ming.

"Su Ming!"

Upon hearing the call, Su Ming turned his head, saw it was Vice Principal Fleck, and quickly greeted him.

"Hello, Principal!"
