BVAHEDLA[W Chapter 73

Chapter 73: Zerg 7 “Or, you can teach me personally.”…

Until he was forced to log out of the mecha simulation system, Kalai felt that his consciousness was still wandering outside the world.

It was as if his memory had been drawn away, creating a blank absence.

He remembered that at the end of the practice match just now—

He manipulated the mecha to raise its light sword, and was about to deliver the final blow to Amorris.

He could even vaguely glimpse Amorris’s expression through the cracks in the glass of the mecha cockpit.

The sunlight shone on the sea surface, reflecting a dazzling light, which also refracted a dazzling reflection on Amorris’s mecha.

But Amorris’s expression was the same as usual, as if nothing could make him panic. It was like a delicate and fragile porcelain, but Kalai didn’t see any cracks on it. He was still so perfect, even in a disadvantaged position, he couldn’t hide the brilliance of the treasure.

The treasure was covered in dust, but once someone picked it up and wiped it clean, it could still be carefully cared for, returned to the exquisite display cabinet, and enjoyed the admiring gaze of everyone.

And Amorris didn’t need anyone else. His confidence and tenacity were enough for him to insist on standing up again, swallowing the pain alone, and then waiting for the wound to scab and fall off, and finally heal.

From Kalai’s perspective, there wasn’t even a crack on Amorris’s face.

The same as when facing Prince Custer’s kindness.

It was as if nothing could shake him in the slightest.

It was as if everything was in his grasp.

Really… disgusting!

In fact, Kalai had noticed Amorris early this morning.

One was due to the other party’s outstanding appearance, and the other was because Prince Custer’s attitude towards Amorris was overly concerned.

He had liked Prince Custer for a long time, and he was even more excited for several nights after hearing that Custer was studying in the mecha department.

In Kalai’s eyes, Custer was the purest, noblest, most considerate, and approachable male that he had ever seen. He wasn’t as barbaric as other males, ordering females around. Custer released his greatest kindness to every female.

But the other party was the noble male of the Lanchester family, and he was just an ordinary female. Kalai deeply knew that he was not worthy of the other party, so he just hoped that he could be closer to Prince Custer.

Perhaps he could be favored by the other party, and he would be willing to be a male slave.

Later, he learned that Arnold had been selected as Prince Custer’s guiding worm. The other party was a promising young general. To Kalai, Arnold was like weeds and pines. He couldn’t feel any jealousy or dissatisfaction at all.

But Amorris appeared.

The appearance of Amorris immediately took away all of Prince Custer’s attention. And he himself was like a abandoned puppy, staying alone in the corner, no one cared.

How could Kalai accept this? He couldn’t overstep the distance with Arnold, but if it was just Amorris…

Therefore, when he learned that his opponent in the practice match happened to be Amorris, a trace of secret joy flashed in his heart.

If he could defeat Amorris—

Would it make Prince Custer see Amorris’s incompetence? Does it mean that Prince Custer can pay more attention to himself?

With this in mind, Kalai played this game with extra focus and dedication than ever before.

The initial development of the battle was as he had expected. Amorris’s operation was completely like a mecha novice. The mecha was unusually clumsy and uncoordinated in his hands, as if he had just learned to control his limbs.

He even wanted to laugh at the other party’s reckless style.

But later, the situation gradually reversed.

With each confrontation, Amorris would make progress. His strength, agility, and coordination were tempered little by little in the battle.

It was as if the ancient gods were gradually regaining their lost power after waking up.

Damn it, is he treating him like a clown? Kalai gritted his teeth, and even Mack’s constant reminder to him “don’t be impulsive” was completely forgotten.

Finally, he and Mack still seized the opportunity, and Amorris was besieged by them, with no escape.

Who knew that Amorris miraculously escaped.

Kalai’s brain went blank at the time. In that situation, if it were him, he might have already…

He wanted to force himself to calm down, but that miraculous figure was like a flame, leaving an indelible mark in his mind, and then quickly pulling away, becoming out of reach.

At that moment, even Kalai had to be impressed by Amorris’s strength.

Fortunately, Amorris was still injured by the shock wave of the explosion.

Kalai still remembered that he raised his light sword and then stabbed it down fiercely.

What was his mood at that moment? Luck? Gloating? Fear? Or excitement? He couldn’t remember clearly.

He only remembered that when the light sword was only one centimeter away from Amorris’s mecha, it was as if a pair of invisible hands had abruptly caught his sword, preventing him from moving forward.

That was an unspeakable power. Time was still flowing in front of his eyes, but Kalai couldn’t move an inch, as if his soul was trembling.

Later, when he regained consciousness, he had already returned to the real world.

He walked out of the simulation cockpit in confusion, and found that most of the students around him had finished their practice. The huge screen in the center of the classroom was playing the scene of Amorris, Custer, and Mack fighting.

The teacher faced the screen, recording on the terminal from time to time.

Kalai eagerly wanted to know the result of this practice match. He didn’t find a seat to sit down. He just stood aside, looking at the screen, just as he had come out of the simulation cockpit.

He didn’t even know that Arnold had come.

Naturally, he saw the scene at the end where Amorris picked up the severed arm and threw it at Mack and Custer.

This battle ended with Amorris surviving alone and taking the final victory.

Just when Kalai thought that the teacher was going to give Amorris a high score—after all, his performance in this game was so brilliant—Arnold ruthlessly stopped the teacher from registering the score.

“I’m sorry, but Amorris cannot pass.”

As soon as the cold voice came out, the classroom instantly fell silent.

For a while, incredulous eyes looked at Arnold, including Kalai himself.

Except for the person involved.

Amorris didn’t seem to be angry, and there wasn’t even dissatisfaction on his delicate face.

He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and his curved eyes were full of curiosity.

Yes, Amorris was not angry or puzzled by his failing grade, he was just curious.

He wanted to know Arnold’s reasons and basis for doing so.

In his opinion, the score of a practice match was irrelevant, but Arnold himself was more interesting to him.

His eyes stared straight at Arnold like this, without any embarrassment.

Everyone around seemed to notice, and tacitly gave way, so that there were no other obstacles between Amorris and Arnold.

The two people’s eyes met in the air like this, and no one spoke for a while.

There was no quarrel, not even the explosive scene that everyone imagined.

One blue and one red, two pairs of jewel-like eyes looked at each other like this.

Amorris’s calm blue eyes, like an ancient sea, rippled because of Arnold, and Arnold’s fiery red eyes, because of inexplicable apology and firmness, went out and became calm and deep.

Facing Amorris’s curiosity, Arnold turned his head slightly, not daring to look him in the eye.

Finally, he gave his explanation:

There is no doubt that Amorris’s operation was very brilliant in this practice match. Whether it was his operating skills, his escape from death, or his prophetic layout, it laid the foundation for the final reversal. Undoubtedly, he deserves a high score.

But the only thing Amorris shouldn’t have done was to attack his teammates,

—no matter what his purpose was.

Although this is just a practice match, everyone knows that the students in the mecha department will become soldiers in the military in the future. In battle, attacking teammates who entrust each other is intolerable.

And Amorris, while “killing” Mack, completely disregarded Custer’s safety. He treated Custer like a chess piece to be discarded after use, which was completely an “unqualified” behavior.

Therefore, Amorris cannot pass this practice.

After saying this, Arnold left in a hurry, leaving Amorris alone in place.

Kalai looked at Amorris, and couldn’t help but feel a little Sigh. He didn’t know if it was because of Amorris’s failing grade, or the fact that such superb skills couldn’t pass.

Seeing Amorris standing still, Custer thought the other party was sad. In his opinion, Amorris was a mecha rookie, and it was excusable to be ignorant of these things. And he believed that Amorris didn’t deliberately “kill” him, he just wanted to win.

However, just as he approached Amorris, he heard Amorris muttering to himself.

“So… is that so…”

Custer didn’t hear clearly: “Amorris, what are you talking about? Don’t be sad, it’s just a failure, it won’t be anything.”

He gradually approached, wanting to pat Amorris on the back to comfort him.

Sensing someone approaching behind him, Amorris came back to his senses from his thoughts.

“Sad? I’m not sad?” Amorris turned around, and once again just dodged the hand that Custer stretched out to him, “I just, figured out something.”

All along, the word teammate has been full of exploitation and betrayal to Amorris.

His former teammates, when facing alien beasts with him in the arena, unhesitatingly lifted him up to block him. The scar on his left arm originated from the canine teeth of an alien beast.

There was also one who sold his escape route to the arena in exchange for more food.

Amorris didn’t blame them. If it were him, he would definitely do the same.

Being exploited and betrayed is only because his strength is not strong enough.

But Arnold actually said that Custer was his teammate, so he shouldn’t attack his teammates.

How interesting.

How ironic.

He doesn’t understand, and can’t understand.

But he is really curious.

So, when Amorris was sitting in Arnold’s hover car back, he suddenly opened his mouth:

“Arnold.”

“Or, you can teach me personally?”

Arnold, who had never trembled when driving a mecha, trembled when driving a hover car.

The car body obviously bumped.
