The Undying Mecha Emperor

At the same time, I had also finished scanning the area around the battlefield for resonance and realized two things.

There was one unidentified powerhouse still in stealth somewhere in Eagle Sector, and that reinforcements were already on the way.

The problem was, our reinforcements would pass by the hiding unidentified powerhouse!

I did not hesitate.

I did not believe that the enemy could do more than hide three overpowered blue mechas and what seemed like a white mecha so deeply within the Chinese Federation, especially after the massive purge that occured recently.

However they did it and whatever assets they had left within the Federation, I was sure that the four mechas were the last assets they had.

And if the hidden powerhouse was the last of them within that battlefield, then it should be safe enough for me to unleash a bit more of my power if I were to shut him down as well.

Why they were activated at that moment and what objectives they were after were things that I completely could not even begin to imagine at that moment.

But I knew I would get the answers if I managed to capture them.

So I did not hesitate to unleash a little bit more of my power at that moment.

I exerted my red energy and crushed the mecha cores of all four mechas into pieces!

Poof!

Their mechas instantly powered down!

"You think you\'re the only one with a mecha virus?" I snickered evilly at my enemy. His green mecha virus had dissipated harmlessly around him and his mecha was standing motionlessly a few meters ahead of me.

"If you\'re talking about virus, then the Chinese Federation is the World King of Viruses! Mwahahahahaha!" I cackled evilly.

I had no idea why I said what I said that day to a completely powered down enemy, but it was all that saved me from having Devour completely exposed.

Because unbeknownst to me, there was a fifth enemy mecha!

I realized that as soon as I sensed four of our reinforcements peel off to shoot upwards towards the sky.

The fifth enemy mecha was hiding high up above the clouds!

"Damn it! There\'s actually another one??" I shouted in shock. However, the enemy mecha was extremely well hidden, and I was not able to use my resonance to quickly find him.

Thankfully our reinforcements were equipped with anti stealth technology and they had no problems detecting him.

I glanced upwards and maintained a vigilant supervision of the four reinforcements surging ahead. I was intent to help them by weakening the enemy as soon as I could lay my red energy on him.

But before I could do that...

"You\'ve done enough. Let us deal with that fifth mecha." My older brother\'s voice sounded warily through my comms.

"Big bro!!" I shouted in surprise.

"I\'ve placed you and your schoolmates in danger once more by failing to anticipate this ambush. I am sorry, little brother." Bruce Pang\'s voice was full of half suppressed anger and guilt.

"What the hell are you talking about? With me around, nothing could happen to these little kiddos. Don\'t worry. I will protect them in your absence." I said rather grandly on purpose.

I quickly turned the conversation around by placing myself as his co-worker who would strive to protect the kids instead of remaining as someone who needed him to actively protect me!

"Hahaha. Thank you for your attempt to cheer me up. I appreciate it. But the fact remains, I have failed once more, and our enemy is growing more and more desperate day by day. Drastic actions need to be taken. Meet me in my office tonight, little brother. We have much to discuss."

After saying those words, Bruce Pang shut off his comms and went on to personally collect the prisoners to make sure that nothing went wrong.

And with that, a very exciting lesson was over!

Tragically, three instructors died that day.

The others had life saving equipment of sorts on them, and they managed to survive the explosion of their mechas.

But the three instructors who died did not, including the brave instructor who took to the skies to draw the attention of the hidden enemies.

He died as complete hero, and I made sure that I learnt all about him and his life in the following days to honor and respect the memory of him.

I had seen death before, but it was the first time I saw someone sacrifice his life so bravely for me.

Their deaths lit a fire of sheer anger and desire in my heart to find my enemies and then rip them apart into pieces.

I was sure my big brother felt the same way as well, and probably in greater intensity considering that it was his staff members who died that day.

And within a few hours, my guesses were proven right.

At nine pm sharp, I found myself seated before both Bruce Pang and Jeanette Wen in his comfortable but dimly lit office.

There was a small area in front of a very full desk that had four comfy sofas around a small table.

I was seated on a single sofa and they were both seated on a double sofa.

It was a simple office, almost completely undecorated and filled to the brim with an air of utter thoughtfulness.

The fact that rows upon rows of books filled the bookshelves that completely filled all four walls was definitely a big factor in contributing to that atmosphere.

However, at that moment, the atmosphere was anything but thoughtful.

Both had extremely serious looks on their faces, and I could feel a deep aura of righteous wrath simmering around them.

It wasn\'t an out of control kind of anger that sought to burn one and all around them.

On the contrary, it was one of cold, calculating and merciless anger that would stop and nothing to get their vengeance.

"Do you know how the ancient Chinese exact vengeance?" An aged and tired voice sounded from somewhere deep in the shadows of Bruce Pang\'s office.
