Chapter 180: Chapter 133: Just Now, My Classmate and I Were Attacked by the Austin Family...
"Sister Yao!"
Ke Dancheng hurried over. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shu Yao was unharmed. But when he saw the terrifying coldness on her face, the fear he had just felt resurfaced.
Shu Yao said nothing.
All Ke Dancheng could do was breathe cautiously.
A shadow suddenly fell over them.
The two looked up.
A combat Mecha descended from the sky, landing a short distance behind them in an aggressive, domineering posture.
Wild laughter from the cockpit boomed through the Mecha’s external speakers, echoing clearly in their ears.
"Little sister~" A cocky and flippant voice rang out. "I hear you’re quite the hotshot. So famous that even we at the Military Academy have heard of you!"
’A student from the Imperial University Military Academy?’
Ke Dancheng pushed up his glasses, confused by the situation.
’Did all our hard work yesterday somehow make Shu Yao a public enemy of the Imperial University Military Academy?’
’That’s impossible!’
He remembered that Shu Yao’s reputation on the forums was very good.
Shu Yao glanced at the pierced tail of her aircraft. Her gaze turned chillingly cold as she shot a look at the Mecha, her tone calm.
"Did you do this?"
But Ke Dancheng could sense the calm before a storm!
"You’ve got some nerve!" The voice from the cockpit was cruel. "Humiliating Edgar like that! You really know how to pick on people, don’t you? I heard you even bullied Xiangxiang at school!"
Xiangxiang, Lin Zhenxiang.
’So this guy is with Lin Zhenxiang and Edgar.’
’He’s probably here to get even for them.’
Ke Dancheng sized up the Mecha and whispered to Shu Yao, "Sister Yao, he’s a student from the Imperial University Military Academy, and I think he’s from the Austin family too. The combat Mecha he’s piloting is the latest model developed by Ouchuang Technology."
No one could have the authorization to pilot a Mecha like this unless they were an insider of the Austin family.
Then there was no need to ask. He was definitely the one who had shot down Shu Yao’s Flying Machine.
"Today, I’m just teaching you a little lesson!" The man’s icy voice was filled with a cruel warning. "If you dare bully Xiangxiang again, I’ll make you regret being born in the Federation!"
"Go fuck yourself!" Shu Yao exploded, cursing furiously. "Get over here. I promise I won’t beat you to death!"
The man, provoked, paused for a second before bursting into a fit of wild laughter.
He mocked her relentlessly. "You think beating Edgar is some great achievement? Get a grip, little sister. Edgar is the weakest in our family—he can’t even control his Beastification! A piece of trash like him losing to you only proves that he’s trash, not that you’re strong! Let me tell you, the last person who overestimated themselves and mouthed off to me like this got slapped all the way to the Outer Star System!"
With that, he burst into another round of frantic laughter.
Seeing not a trace of fear on Shu Yao’s face, his laughter continued unabated.
’This little sister... she must be scared stiff!’
In that moment, his male ego was immensely satisfied. His laughter grew even more arrogant, but he failed to notice the cold glint in Shu Yao’s eyes.
Following a strange sound, his laughter came to an abrupt halt.
He focused his eyes, but Shu Yao’s figure was no longer in his line of sight.
’Where did she go?’
On the desolate street, there was nothing but the derelict buildings on either side, the Flying Machine he had shot down, and a dumbfounded Ke Dancheng.
Following Ke Dancheng’s astonished gaze, the man in the cockpit suddenly realized something was wrong. He quickly adjusted the Mecha’s visual systems and finally spotted Shu Yao’s figure again.
"This woman..."
’She somehow climbed onto the Mecha and is standing on its shoulder, trying to... rip off its head with her bare hands!!?’
’Is she crazy!?’
SCREECH—
A blood-curdling sound came from above his head, like metal being stretched to its breaking point.
He could feel the Mecha being dismantled!
’This woman... just who the hell is she!’
The man in the cockpit, his face now a mask of terror, felt an instinctive urge to escape. He fumbled with the controls of the new Mecha he was still getting used to.
He tried to manipulate the Mecha to knock the woman off its shoulder.
As a mechanical arm swung at her, Shu Yao blocked it with one hand, noticing the residual heat coming from the launch port on the arm.
Her dark, cold eyes narrowed. She was certain that the blast that had shot down her Flying Machine had been fired from here.
A flash of light suddenly appeared in the launch port.
Shu Yao’s eyes tightened. With lightning-fast reflexes, she spun around and forcefully twisted the mechanical arm, aiming its launch port to the side!
BOOM!
The laser blast tore a massive hole straight through the Mecha’s head!
Watching from a distance, Ke Dancheng’s heart was in his throat, but his blood was also pumping with excitement!
Following the massive explosion, flames and crackling sparks erupted from overhead. The man in the cockpit frantically activated the emergency brake, threw open the hatch, and tumbled out, landing hard on the ground.
