Chapter 346: Chapter 311: Fledgling Leaves the Nest (Five in One)_6

"Of course you can," Moter told Su Ming. "Go up and activate the Mecha, then test it to see if there’s anything wrong."

"Alright!"

Su Ming immediately activated the anti-gravity device on the ground, flew into the cockpit, and then pressed the concealed switch.

Click!

The cockpit slowly opened.

Su Ming climbed in, his eyes falling upon the black pilot’s seat and the cold all-metal control panel.

He sat down in the pilot’s chair, closed the cockpit, reached for the mechanical key on the metal console, and inserted it into the keyhole to start the Mecha.

Zzz~

Accompanied by the start of the power output device, the crimson electronic eyes lit up.

Inside the cockpit, dark red light strips on the walls lit up, and prompts appeared on the operation screen.

"System initializing!"

"Initialization successful."

"Performing self-check."

...

Soon, the screen entered the operation interface and a prompt box popped up.

"Please rename!"

After pondering, Su Ming immediately entered the name "Slaughterer."

"Naming successful."

A gray prompt box appeared.

Su Ming dismissed the prompt box, quickly entered commands, tied his identity information to it, and set a secret key.

Once he completed the binding, he entered a string of commands to bring up the specific parameters of this Mecha.

...

Su Ming took a deep breath as he looked at the internal parameters.

This Mecha’s performance was explosively good, with many key devices using fourth generation Mecha components.

Moreover, it even had a GN Field, which he remembered was a rare device, not standard even in fourth generation Mecha. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Su Ming even suspected that if it had a Super Neural Connection Device, it would be a standard fourth generation Mecha.

Thinking this, Su Ming hesitated no longer, he tried to pull the control lever to make the Slaughterer move a bit.

Clang! Clang!

"How is it?"

Moter asked eagerly.

"It’s great, operates even smoother than the Green Wings, almost no delay. But it’s a shame, the space here is too narrow to maneuver!"

Su Ming controlled the Mecha to walk in a circle, returning to the original position.

"I’m telling you, you’ve found a treasure. If your piloting skills are strong enough, this Mecha can take on a standard Fourth Generation Mechanical Mecha head-on!" Moter explained to Su Ming.

Just then, the ship’s broadcast sounded.

"Dear companions, the Star Stinger has completed its superluminal flight, and we are about to arrive at Black Flame Star. The ship will stay at the interstellar airport of Black Flame Star for 24 hours. Please all personnel who wish to leave the ship do so within the designated time...."

...

Su Ming heard the broadcast and immediately shut down the mech, opened the cockpit, and climbed down.

He stretched out his hand and shook it with senior Moter, expressing his gratitude.

"Thank you for your hard work, senior!"

"It’s nothing, I finally fulfilled my mission and repaired it before landing, I’m glad it didn’t delay your task! We will also go back to school once the spaceship lands."

Moter waved his hand as he spoke.

"Alright, please be careful on the way."

"Don’t worry about me, but as for you, junior, it’s your first time leading so many people on an independent mission, you must be especially careful."

"Sure!"

Su Ming nodded.

...

More than an hour later.

Star Stinger smoothly landed at Black Flame Star interstellar airport.

Su Ming, along with Rhein and others, walked down from the exit ramp, where an older man, wearing work attire, with dark skin approached them.

"Hello, are you Mr. Su Ming?"

"Yes, that’s me."

"I am the dispatcher, Weimke, are you the one who applied for mecha storage?"

"Yes!"

"Storing a total of 50 mechas."

"That’s correct."

Su Ming nodded in response.

This time, they brought a total of fifty mechas. It’s worth mentioning that Rhein did not bring the Iron Guard Mecha with him, and Su Ming had lent his Gun Knight to Rhein to use.

"We charge 10,000 Federation coins per mecha per day, which makes it 500,000 Federation coins for fifty."

Weimke quoted the price.

Rhein, hearing the price, responded with a dark expression.

"Really? That’s too expensive, isn’t it? The interstellar airport at Starlight City isn’t that outrageous."

"Exactly, you aren’t trying to cheat us, are you?"

...

Zhang Yi and others echoed the sentiment.

"It used to be cheaper for sure, but as you know, the situation is tense now, with a lot of weaponry and ships docked at Black Flame Star, space is scarce, and maintenance costs have significantly increased. Hence, the price has risen quite a bit, please understand."

Weimke responded to the complaints from Rhein and others, not only remaining unoffended but also patiently explaining the situation.

The main reason was to avoid Su Ming and others from complaining to the Federation about the price hiking.

"Since we are storing so many mechas, could we possibly get a discount?"

Su Ming tried to negotiate.

"No can do!"

Weimke flatly refused, explanations aside, the price could not be reduced.

"Alright then, I’ll put down a deposit of one million Federation coins, and we will adjust later if necessary!"

Su Ming said to Weimke.

"No problem, please follow me, I’ll take you to swipe your card and complete the procedures!"

Weimke led Su Ming and others away.

...

An hour and a half later.

Su Ming and the others stood inside the hangar underneath the interstellar airport.

Watching as their mechas were transferred one by one to designated positions.

"This entrance exam trip is really too costly, we haven’t done anything yet, and we’ve already spent quite a bit of money."

Zhang Yi and others groaned in pain.

"Last time during the field mission, all expenses were covered by the school, so we did not feel it, but this time it’s different, we have to pay for everything ourselves, thus it’s particularly painful! However, this is also valuable experience, in the future when taking on missions, we really can’t accept those with too little rewards, otherwise it would be a huge loss."

Su Ming reflected thoughtfully.

"Ah~ only after leaving the school do you realize how difficult each step is, everything depends on ourselves."

Rhein and others responded with a sigh. It was nothing like what they had imagined.

"A fledgling leaving the nest, how can one become an eagle without braving the storm? Perhaps this is the real meaning of the assessment. Cheer up, everyone."

Su Ming smiled and said.

"Right!"
