Chapter 17 (1/2)

At that moment, the mutated wild boar sped up.

It was less than a hundred meters away from the second team.

The white Elementary-Leveled Mecha’s firearms were ready.

Then, the 3.5-meter-tall mecha activated its combat mode.

It looked rather domineering.

Ninety meters…

Eighty meters…

Fifty meters…

At this time, Locke rapidly pressed the weapon launch button.

Bang! Bang!

Two bullets instantly shot out.

At the same time, it hit the butt of the C-Grade mutated wild boar.

At this moment, Locke intentionally did not aim at the mutated wild boar’s vital parts.

If such a situation were to happen to Mecha Warriors who were officially undergoing military service…

There was definitely no way they could explain this to the Federation.

However, Locke was simply a student from the mecha course.

This was the first time he had experienced a combat test. Thus, he might be too nervous to aim.

This was very normal.

He had already planned everything.

After the mutated wild boar was hit in the butt, it was just as Locke had imagined.

It turned even more berserk and completely ignored the pain from its wound.

Instead, it charged directly towards the white mecha controlled by Locke.

Just then, Callie realized that something was wrong.

Locke’s strength was not the top among the mecha students.

However, his control of the aiming system was not bad.

No!

Callie suddenly realized that Peter was behind the white mecha.

In an instant, she understood Locke’s scheme.

He wanted to lure the injured mutated boar to attack Peter, who was behind him.

What a shameless scoundrel!

Callie bit her lip angrily.

Then, the mutated wild boar charged towards Locke’s mecha.

Locke pretended to be very nervous and controlled his mecha to leap into the air.

Due to the fact that Elementary-Leveled Mechas were not very heavy, their jumping ability was superior to that of Intermediate-Leveled Mechas.

The white Elementary-Leveled Mecha mecha instantly jumped over 2 meters into the air, dodging the charge of the mutated wild boar.

However, the mutated wild boar that had been injured had lost all reason.

It continued charging forward.

Peter was fully exposed in the mutated wild boar’s field of vision.

“Peter, it’s dangerous!”

“Callie?”

Peter recognized the voice that warned him of the danger. It was Callie’s.

After Callie realized Locke’s cunning plan, she immediately operated her mecha to quickly move in front of Peter.

It happened so suddenly that she did not have time to use the firearms on her mecha.

Instead, she simply activated the running mode on her mecha. She was going to use the steel body of the mecha to stop the mutated wild boar from rushing towards Peter.

Bang!

Callie operated her mecha to ram into the ugly head of the mutated wild boar.

A C-Grade mutated wild boar was over five meters long.

Its weight had already exceeded the weight of an Elementary-Leveled Mecha.

With this collision, even if Callie had the protection of the mecha…

… the resulting shockwave produced after the two forces collided…

… simply knocked Callie unconscious.

Meanwhile, the mutated beast was also hit badly by Callie.

A dazed expression appeared on its ugly face.

This slowed down the mutated wild boar’s momentum.

“Callie!”

Peter saw that Callie had operated her mecha to crash into the charging mutated boar in order to save him.

When he tried to stop Callie, it was too late.
