The Favored Son of Heaven

Naturally, the excitement was from having this opportunity that money couldn’t buy, and the emotional aspect was from how messy, mixed, and unclear he felt from absorbing the teachings from so many different experts. It made walking his own martial dao much harder.

“The hardest martial dao to traverse is the strongest martial dao, kid.” It was as if the master could see through Qin Fen’s thoughts. “Perhaps it will be impossible for you to embark on your own martial dao and become the strongest because of our existence. But in the case you’re able to take that initial step and grasp the martial dao that is unique to you, then… hehe….”

Qin Fen nodded. Whether or not something was good fortune or bad, it all depended on one’s own efforts.

“Then let us continue discussing the martial dao of slaughter.” The master continued speaking, “I have cursorily experience with this martial dao….”

The master’s explanation didn’t take up too much time, just a mere half an hour at most, but the master disappeared ahead of time for the sake of allowing Qin Fen good quality sleep.

Before he left, he recommended Qin Fen to enter gravity cultivation. Training under large pressures would aid him in rapidly increasing his strength.

Qin Fen, who had been ejected from this dream world, didn’t dreamed of other dreams. He spent the night thunderously snoring in the recruit training camp, and even Deng Biao was jolted awake by the sound. Deng Biao looked at Qin Fen, fearful of believing that this super recruit who possessed such powerful strength could actual snore this loudly. What in the world had exhausted his bottomless strength, making him this tired?

The morning of the next day.

Qin Fen woke up feeling his body be incomparably relaxed. His performance in the morning’s military training was astounding to the eyes.

Even when it was time for special training, Qin Fen felt not a hint of weariness with his body. Today was the day when the Mobile Armor Boor and Squad Leader Hao would be teaching him.

Boor was the drill instructor for mobile armors. His scholarly appearance carried a bit of bashfulness. It was hard for one to associate his appearance with his nickname, Boor.

The past few days of contact with these people allowed Qin Fen to understand that there existed a relationship between their nicknames and their personality or style of doing things. Anyone could judge a book by its cover, but the one to suffer would be themselves.

“The shape of mobile armors aren’t aerodynamic, so they’re more used to sustain ground battles.” Boor spoke as if he was a lecturer in a high school classroom. “As Army, learning some skills of armored forces is allowed.”

Qin Fen nodded. Aerial combat was more suited for fighter aircrafts due to their agility. If one wanted to possess stronger and better firepower, then enormous space warships were better suited for the task. Mobile armors were completely useless in aerial combat.

“But they can still act as anti-air defenses.” Boor’s tone carried a hint of pride, “Therefore, the role of mobile armors isn’t as small as you might expect.”

For a time, Qin Fen felt like he had returned to the period of life when he was in school. He was like a conscientious student, studying and learning, frequently nodding to express his understanding.

When executing missions on the ground, mobile armors possessed a superiority that was blessed by the heavens. At the minimum, they were more agile than the tank armors of the past, and their attack power was much stronger. Of note is the fact that several mobile armors were equipped with rocket boosters in the back, allowing the mobile armor to leap to extraordinary heights. They could even glide and fly with these rocket boosters. They were one of the most important military forces on the ground.

“Because of the sheer amount of missions the mobile armor undergoes, the pilot needs to have an excellent body.” Butcher looked at Qin Fen’s body, nodding his head in satisfaction. “You have an excellent body. Looking from the outside, you’re qualified to be a mobile armor pilot. Simulated operation will never be as real as actual operation. So let’s simply go do the actual operation.”

Boor lifted off an enormous canvas situated not too far behind him, revealing two mobile armors that Qin Fen had never seen before.

Of course, Qin Fen absolutely didn’t have the time that other young people did. He was busy trying to survive. He didn’t have the time to gain understandings of various matters.

It was guaranteed that he could identify the model of even the most primitive mobile armor if it were placed before him, needless to say of two new models of mobile armors.

“Is learning this… really useful?”

Very rarely did Qin Fen doubted the teachings of his instructors. However, mobile armors were one of his rare doubts.

Boor was a bit puzzled as he stood beneath the mobile armor, “Have any questions?”

Qin Fen didn’t hide his own thoughts. He spoke very honestly, “According to my speculations, a planet level neo martial artist expert, especially one that controls magnetically driven flying swords, may be able to cut through this mobile armor, right?”

Boor first revealed a hint of shock, then he laughed extremely happily. “You really are super interesting. Young people now a days all want to pilot a mobile armor when they see one, but you’re thinking of other problems.”

“I’m just scared that I ultimately find this useless once I learn it. That’s just a waste of time.”

His habits from many years of being raised in poverty flared up once more. It was a complete waste of time, something of no benefit to anyone, to work for half a day and have that work turn into rubbish at the end of the day. Qin Fen’s sensitivity towards this was much stronger than that of other people.

“It’s good that you’re thinking.” Boor gave Qin Fen a positive statement before opening the cockpit of the battle armor and jumping right in. “It’s true that a planet level neo martial art expert, especially one that uses magnetically driven flying swords, can cut through a considerable portion of the mobile armor. But is that enough to say that a mobile armor is useless?”

The cockpit quickly closed after Boor jumped in. When his words stopped, the shoulders and legs of the mobile armor suddenly sprang open its outer armor, revealing a batch of warheads aimed at Qin Fen. And attached to the arms of the armor were four Metal Storms, which radiated with a cold glow.

Boor’s voice came out of the mobile armor. “What do you think? You think these warheads and four Metal Storms can eliminate a planet level expert?”

Qin Fen went silent. How could he make an assessment if he never encountered a planet level expert before? However, these weapons allocated to the mobile armor were truly shocking to the eyes.

Most especially were the Metal Storms. The power of that weapon was extremely shocking. It could shoot three thousand sharp metal shards the size of a square inch in an instant. Its ability while firing was truly that of howling winds and torrential rain.

“Maybe so?”

“It’s okay even if they can’t.” Boor continued to speak, “If these attacks aren’t able to kill an enemy, how much strength would the enemy have remaining? Would the enemy still be able to destroy my mobile armor? Let’s take a step back. Say the enemy destroys my armor, then me, as the pilot, jumps out from the cockpit. Who has better strength physically? Who would hold the upper hand?”

“I’ll learn it.”

Qin Fen could see the enormous benefits when using mobile armors in combat.

He also thought about what would happen if he retired. He would already know how to pilot mobile armors, a very advantageous thing. Whether it was joining an adventurer group or a major business group, a person proficient in operating mobile armors was extremely well-received.
