Chapter 520 - Together In The Mecha (2/2)
Soul trains usually took two hours to travel from Shrek City to Heaven Dou City. It took Tang Wulin and Gu Yue only one hour aboard his mecha. By the time they reached Heaven Dou City, it wasn't even noon.
After gaining entry to the city, Tang Wulin flew straight for the local Blacksmith's a.s.sociation. He had called Zhen Hua beforehand and gotten permission to dock his mecha there. Once his mecha connected with the docking system, it gently landed on the roof of the Blacksmith's a.s.sociation. Only then did Tang Wulin let out a breath of relief. His first long distance flight had gone well.
The c.o.c.kpit opened and Tang Wulin and Gu Yue climbed out. As the two walked toward the elevator, Tang Wulin glanced back at his mecha proudly. He was a mecha pilot now.
Right at that moment, something called out to him and he looked over at the other docked mechas that were in the middle of recharging. Beside his yellow mecha were two purple mechas and one black mecha. The fact that they were parked here meant their pilots were no ordinary people. But they weren't what caught his eye. As his gaze reached the very end of the docking area, Tang Wulin saw a gate to a subs.p.a.ce slowly closing. Before the gate closed completely, he caught a glimpse of a single mecha. The only thing he could really see were its legs. They were painted a deep scarlet.
Tang Wulin was thunderstruck. W-was that a red-grade mecha?
White-grade mechas were the basic, yellow-grade were standard-issue, purple-grade were high-end, and black-grade were top-notch. Red-grade mechas, however, were divinity incarnate. Their pilots had to personally make them, and they needed to be made of the highest quality of forged metals. They would then be bonded to their pilot's blood essence and soul power, linking it to their pilot's life force. Such a mecha would even be compatible with spirit souls, and could be further empowered by fusing with one.
The number of red-grade mechas that existed on the entire continent could be counted on two hands! It was said that there were no limits to how powerful a red-grade mecha could be. It was even possible for one to face off with a three-word battle armor master. However, a soul master needed to at least be an eight-ring Soul Douluo to pilot a red-grade mecha. The requirements to even make one were even higher. In fact, it was as hard as crafting a full set of three-word battle armor, and even had some advantages over battle armor.
It was generally accepted that battle armors were absolutely superior to mechas. That was only because red-grade mechas weren't taken into consideration.
Tang Wulin was stunned. He could barely believe he had just laid eyes on a red-grade mecha. Its sleek form left him breathless.
Right beside him, Gu Yue said, “Is that one of those legendary red-grade mechas?”
“I think it is!” Tang Wulin nodded with excitement. “Let's go! We can ask my uncle-master about it. He's gotta know something. After that, it'll be time for me to train with him. Once I'm done with that, I'll go sell off some metals and we can go sightseeing. I should be ready to meet up in the evening. Whatever you want to do tonight, I'm game.”
“Okay,” Gu Yue responded.
The two took the elevator down to Zhen Hua's office using a special keycard that gave them access to his floor. When the doors opened, Tang Wulin ran out happily and knocked on Zhen Hua's door.
“I bet the kid's here,” Zhen Hua shouted from the other side of the door. “Come on in!”
Tang Wulin entered with Gu Yue right behind him. Zhen Hua was sitting at his desk. Someone was seated across from him.
“It's you!” Tang Wulin exclaimed, instantly recognizing the man as the chef he saw last time he visited.
The chef was a rugged man in his fifties. This time he wasn't dressed in a chef's outfit, but a traditional gray robe. The fact that he was casually sitting in the Divine Blacksmith's office proved he was no ordinary man.
