The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 690 Bug Detection (Part 2)
011 looked rather grim; he was still waiting for news from the scouts.

The mech's appearance was too sudden, making him worry that there was a trap behind it. If this was Yara's backup plan, then there must be more than one. If he rashly made a move and fell right into someone else's trap, it wouldn't be good.

However, he also couldn't wait any longer, because almost at the same time, the favorable situation that had just opened up suddenly changed.

One 2856 was destroyed, but a new mech immediately appeared. And while the new mech was fighting Aping, 1056 was clearly on the verge of collapse.

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of new mechs here, she might have already sent her heavy armor to provide support.

Their advantage was that they had one more mech than the enemy, and he didn't want to lose that advantage.

But this newcomer is just too fierce.

After watching for a while, even someone as composed as 011 had a bad feeling in his heart; he could see things clearly from the outside.

A-Ping's skill in piloting the mecha is extremely high, even among his peers, demonstrating exquisite precision far exceeding that of others his age. However, he also suffers from many flaws common to top fighters: arrogance and a strong sense of curiosity, making him prone to impulsiveness when encountering someone stronger or more formidable than himself.

011 Knowing that losing composure during a confrontation is the worst thing that can happen, and often leads to failure, is not a good sign.

This newcomer started by playing by his own rules, dodging Ah Ping's amazing skills, and then quickly proved himself after a few moves.

Ah Ping was formidable, but his opponent was no less so, even displaying a greater degree of cunning. 011 could clearly see that his opponent had excellent control over the rhythm, handling the situation with ease, and Ah Ping was even slightly outmatched. The opponent's disadvantage lay in the level of their mecha.

For some reason, 011 felt somewhat fortunate that the other party was piloting a B-class mech. If it had been of the same class, A-Ping would have been at a disadvantage in the previous exchange.

And that's not the worst part. Looking at Jiang Hui's unusual action, even 011 couldn't guess what she was planning to do.

"What is he doing?"

Everyone in the meeting room was somewhat surprised, because the curve of the other party's mecha was too strange. It didn't look like it was produced by normal operation at all, but rather like the state of 2856 when it went crazy earlier.

No, strictly speaking, even 2856 wouldn't do that, because this isn't a move a standard mech could perform. Could it be that the other party isn't piloting a standard mech, but rather—

Then, in the next moment, the situation changed drastically, shocking 011 and the others.

Faced with A Ping's rapid attack, the opponent did not dodge but instead bent over.

The standard mechs are constructed according to the human body, but they lack the flexibility that humans generally possess. Bending over is already difficult, let alone arching backwards... Is this something a carbon-based life form could conceive of? The mechs themselves didn't know they could be this awesome. 011 had such absurd thoughts popping into their head.

But this absurd idea perfectly matched the scene before them. In one arena, between two factions, regardless of their current situation, everyone involuntarily stopped what they were doing and looked at the two mechs locked in combat in the center, dumbfounded and stunned.

As the waist joint parts were squeezed, the mecha made a clicking sound. The two shells inevitably pressed together, but due to the special properties of the material, they barely held together without deforming. The force on both ends was already terrifying, and not a single bit more could be added.

Jiang Hui calculated the limits of the mecha's waist and abdomen, constantly adjusting the angle to avoid actually ruining the mecha with this operation.

Indeed, she wanted to exploit the bug and take advantage of the data stream vulnerability, but Jiang Hui hadn't forgotten that mechs could still be damaged in this simulated world, and that normal damage was irreparable.

Moreover, there are simply no spare parts available for repair in this barren space.

Even though she had already planned ahead and was prepared to take risks, she was still very careful in the end. Sweat even broke out on her nose, and she didn't even realize that her fingertips were almost digging into her palms.

As for Aping Jianghui, who was already close to the fuselage, she was also keeping an eye on things, because if the other party didn't cooperate, she wouldn't be able to get the bug working properly.

Fortunately, the other party didn't know what she wanted to do. When the corrective force appeared and penetrated the mutated part, Jiang Hui withdrew her own power and adjusted the angle of her head with the help of the external interference force... Success!
All the onlookers saw was Jiang Hui manipulating her mecha to perform a stiff, mecha-style backbend, after which A Ping leaped at her, almost touching her body, and with one above the other, he thrust his arm straight into the core of her mecha.

The mech below suddenly went berserk at this moment, changing its stance, lowering its head even further, and the bridge formed by its arched body suddenly collapsed halfway down. Then, it used the traction from A-Ping's attack to relax its lower body.

As her lower body touched the ground, it seemed to be corrected by some external force, acting in the opposite direction. Her whole body was like a ruler that was not easily deformed or bent, bending to its limit. Then, the person at the head suddenly let go, and the other end straightened up with a "bang".

Because he was chasing Jiang Hui's weakness, A Ping was getting closer and closer. Seeing that the other party was making such strange moves, he regarded it as a futile resistance and decided to deal with it as it came.

If Jiang Hui were to directly counter his movements, he wouldn't be worried. A-Ping was even thinking of getting closer to block the opponent's movements... But the problem was that Jiang Hui's final attack came from his lower body.

Ah Ping had already abandoned his lower body, adopting a lunging, horizontal posture, so he couldn't care less about his lower body and couldn't dodge even if he spotted the enemy. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue attacking the core of the enemy mech.

In this situation, it naturally comes down to who is faster. However, it is clear that what A-Ping is dealing with is not Jiang Hui's spontaneous attack, but rather the system's external correction of Jiang Hui's modification of the mecha's attributes. This correction is mechanical and straightforward, without any gentleness or subtlety.

In the data world, everything manifests from data. Wouldn't it be easy for someone to be caught if they modified the system? This external interference was corrected in an instant, and then struck A-Ping's lower body much faster.

Just then, Jiang Hui used his head to push off the ground, and with his legs, combined with the corrective rebound force, kicked the opposite mech hard in the waist area.

Some people may not know what that concept is... It's roughly like the force of a jack plus a giant spring, something like that.
