From scrap mecha to sci-fi heaven

"Is something wrong?"

In the carriage, a middle-aged Asian with a somewhat stern face walked down.

Tang Feng did not look at Qiao Wa, but looked directly at Lin Yu.

"It's nothing. It's just that the camp is close and we are traveling together, so I came over to say hello."

Lin Yu smiled and stretched out his hand: "You don't mind coming over to chat with Qiao Wa and the others, right?"

"As long as it doesn't affect their work."

Tang Feng frowned slightly, but reluctantly relaxed slightly and agreed.

However, he had no intention of shaking hands with Lin Yu, so he turned around and got into the car again.

Of course, it seemed that he was indeed busy with something just now, and was only interrupted by Jiao Wa's words before he took the time to meet him.

Seeing this, Lin Yu could only give Qiao Wa a helpless look.

"Fortunately, I've been exercising a lot recently. Otherwise, my waist would have been broken if I pounced on you like this. Have you gained weight again?"

Lin Yu was joking.

Not what he thought it should be.

These mercenaries may still have some status and deterrence among ordinary people, but they are really not enough to deal with pilots and so on. However, at their level, the daily contact with them is such related tasks.

In fact, they are probably used to this kind of thing.

It is a common perception, at least what employers think it should be.

You are great, you can't accept being insulted. The pilot got in trouble and beat up the employer. I can't afford to offend you, but I can always hide.

He can't really show off his face and show his strength.

Malice and contempt are out of the question, but people just don't give face and don't care about the world. What can you do to him?

To put it bluntly but generally speaking, since they are holding this bowl of rice, they deserve to be angry and take risks.

"It looks like I can't be of much help."

After all, what Jova and the others eat is mercenaries.

Jiao Wa is relatively free and easy.

If he had stood up for Qiao Wa and the others today, such as saying bad words or even beating up Tang Feng, then Qiao Wa and the others would have a bad reputation.

Tang Feng obviously has a withdrawn and surly character.

Lin Yu sighed softly, and then walked towards Xu Xiaotu and the others.

After the two of them were some distance away, Lin Yucai said helplessly and spread his hands.

"Brother Lin."

"It doesn't matter. I'm just here to reminisce about old times. Go meet Xiaoxiao and the others. I'll take their shift."

Xu Xiaotu was the most excited. When he saw Lin Yu approaching, he immediately jumped forward and threw himself on Lin Yu.

"All right."

"Humph, you're the only one who's gained weight. I've lost a lot of weight because I eat and sleep in the open every day, okay? Even if I'm fat, I'm still fat where I should be."

Xu Xiaotu landed on the ground and immediately became angry when he heard Lin Yu's words.

"That's really not obvious."

Lin Yu glanced at it and shook his head with regret on his face.

The former was immediately ashamed and angry, and began to punch the person with small fists.

The two were laughing and joking for a moment, and Aliena next to them also came over, but she didn't come forward. She just crossed her arms on her chest and watched the two playing around with a smile.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

After Xu Xiaotu was restrained by Lin Yu, Alena greeted Lin Yu out loud, and her eyes met his eyes with sparkling autumn water and a smile.

"Well, long time no see."

Lin Yu also smiled and nodded gently.

It's been a long time indeed.

After the last Blade Mantis incident, the Qiaowa team completed Zhao Xing's contract and returned to the city. They have not been able to meet since then. It has been more than a month.

"I heard from Jova that you became an official pilot and got federal status?"

Aliena asked in a chatty tone.

"That's right, the Heavenly Court Mecha Team, the station sent it to Qiao Wa last time. You can come and sit at my place if you have time."

Lin Yu chuckled and nodded.

He is not someone who would find someone to chat with when he has nothing to do.

Xu Xiaotu, who usually contacted Qiao Wa's team, would always go to Qiao Wa, or take the initiative to contact him, but he didn't have much contact with Alena after they broke up.

"Then you have to have a chance. We all go on missions often, so it's not easy to meet him."

Aliena shrugged.

A few casual chats, and the slight sense of alienation born from a long separation is gone.

As for Xu Xiaotu, he didn’t know what alienation meant, and said excitedly: "Brother Lin, what level of pilot are you now? I see that pilots are quite popular on the Internet a few days ago."

"E-class, I just launched the authorized machine a few days ago, so I did some activities."

Lin Yu smiled.

"Ah, I really want to play too~"

Xu Xiaotu was happy and disappointed.

"Brother Lin is already an E-class pilot?"

Compared with Xu Xiaotu's strange focus, Qiao Wa and Alena on the side were a little shocked, as were Hawke and Field who came over one after another.

You must know that they have only been separated for about a month, right?

Moreover, based on the time they heard that Lin Yu had entered the city, it was only eleven or twelve days.

Promoted to E-class pilot in ten days?

Even if the apprenticeship stage is skipped, it only takes ten days to go from F to E level. This speed is too exaggerated.

You must know that many middle-aged pilots, including their current employer, are only E-level.

After all, not everyone completes tasks across ratings like Lin Yu, and they basically complete it independently to turn the tide.

Most of the time, pilot promotion relies on a large number of tasks of the same level or lower level. Through a little accumulation, the modified body can be improved and the rating can be improved at the same time.

And the ratings don’t just go up but never fall.

Pilot ratings are not something that can be improved by simply increasing your experience.

Pilot ratings are essentially a comprehensive assessment of pilot strength. If you want to truly reach a certain level, whether it is based on aircraft performance or pilot strength, at least you must be able to truly reach it in a comprehensive way.

If you fail in a mission or have not performed missions of the corresponding level for a long time, your pilot score and rating will drop.

Even if you perform poorly or mediocrely in a mission, Cangqiong will determine that your strength is at the current rating, thereby significantly reducing the score obtained in each mission.

Therefore, if a regular pilot wants to be promoted to a corresponding level, he often needs to obtain enough merits to upgrade his own aircraft to the limit of the current rating, or to hone his skills to a level that can offset the performance gap, so that he can obtain enough scores to be promoted.

As a result, Lin Yu... ten days?

He accomplished what others would have achieved in half a lifetime in ten days?

If it were someone else, they would definitely think this was a fantasy, and even a child would not believe such a thing.

But for Lin Yu...

This seems to be more reasonable.

Homemade mecha in the wasteland

In the trip to Paradise Harbor, the first-generation machine was used to defeat the second-generation machine.

In the trip to Bailiu Camp, the beast armor made by the dimensional beast was easily killed, and ordinary pilots would be killed instantly.

These things, just what they saw with their own eyes or believed, are all synonymous with miracles.

"It's just... the gap is getting bigger and bigger."

Qiao Wa didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes fluctuated, and he sighed softly.

They were just mercenaries.

But Lin Yu has become a dignified pilot "adult", and even an E-level pilot.

And it can be predicted that this is definitely not his future limit.

In this situation, even if I get along with him, I am afraid I will have more concerns, not to mention...

"Okay, okay, it's just an E-level pilot rating. It's as easy for me to improve as eating and drinking. Instead of paying attention to these, it's better to pay attention to whether I have become more handsome recently."

Lin Yu also noticed some of Qiao Wa's mood changes. After a lot of self-praise, the exaggerated appearance finally made them calm down again.
