The moment the door closed, the sound of the outside world was shut out, leaving only Lin Zimao, and a senior in the Combat Department who sit in the driver’s seat, Lin Zimao fastened his seat belt skillfully.
When he finishes this series of actions, the senior in the driver’s seat said to check for him again, saying with a bit of arrogance and warning: “Follow my command later, don’t move the buttons on the mecha without permission.”
Lin Zimao said: “Okay.”
Lin Zimao glanced at the nameplate on his chest, this senior is called Ren Siran.
Ren Siran didn’t like new students who screamed excitedly as soon as they got on the mecha, the last one not only screamed but also touched everywhere, to the extent that when Ren Siran saw Lin Zimao, he felt a bit disdainful.
Lin Zimao also wouldn’t go looking for trouble1沒事找事 (méi shì zhǎo shì): to ask for it; to ask for trouble; to cavil (idiom)..
Ren Siran pressed different buttons on the mecha, and manually operated the mecha: “Sit tight, I’m starting.”
Lin Zimao asked him: “What is our flight route?”
Ren Siran said: “Go up, turn around, come down.”
Lin Zimao intentionally or unintentionally looked at the display data in front of him: “Can I touch it?”
Ren Siran refused impatiently: “You haven’t studied professionally, you’d better not to touch any of the above keys, it can only be operated by me.”
Lin Zimao nodded as if he was being taught: “Okay.”
Since he was not allowed to touch, he had no choice but to sit and be a quiet passenger, he immediately lost interest in this hands-on mecha experience, at this moment, he seems to be sitting in a private flying car instead of a mecha, and Ren Siran is the driver dedicated to driving for him.
The red and white mecha started, it rushed into the air with a sudden peal of thunder that leaves no time for covering the ears2迅雷不及掩耳 (xùn léi bù jí yǎn ěr): lit. a sudden peal of thunder leaves no time for covering the ears; as sudden as lightning; extremely sudden and swift..
Ren Siran pressed the buttons on the operation panel extremely quickly, if the person sitting next to him was an ordinary new student, he would definitely be amazed again and again, but what he was facing was Lin Zimao, who had just lost interest in flying into the sky.
Lin Zimao didn’t exclaim or yell, let alone praise or envy himself, Ren Siran even accelerated the speed of the mecha’s ascension.
And in the high-speed movement of the mech, Lin Zimao seemed not to be completely unaffected, Ren Siran made several difficult moves, but Lin Zimao still doesn’t feel anything.
He is very confident in his operation, guessing that the new student was scared silent by him, proudly said: “Why don’t you talk, are you scared silly?”
Lin Zimao lazily lifted his eyelids: “What?”
Ren Siran took the time to glance at Lin Zimao, there was no trembling fear in his voice, the last new student’s face turned pale with fright when he ascended to the stratosphere, but now this one seems not to be completely unaffected, Ren Siran felt a little disappointed that he couldn’t see the tragic picture of the new student trembling, crying and screaming to go down.
In order to satisfy his desire to see the new students break down in tears3痛哭流涕 (tòng kū liú tì): weeping bitter tears; cry one’s heart out; break down in tears; cry and shed bitter tears; Describe the extreme sadness., Ren Siran played a few more moves.
Lin Zimao asked him out of boredom: “Do we have weapons installed on this mecha?”
Ren Siran has been working very hard to focus all his attention on the operation, but why can he still hear his steady voice?
Ren Siran warned him: “No, don’t move around.”
Lin Zimao didn’t understand what he was wary of, so he simply stopped talking.
Ren Siran looked at the time: “It’s almost time, let’s head back.”
Lin Zimao didn’t even enjoy enough but was about to return, the higher he went, the closer he was to the blue sky, the white clouds seem to be within reach, the sky of Capital planet is really blue, which is rarely seen in planet Alpha.
However, just as the mecha turned around and returned to school, there was an urgent distress signal from the mecha.
“A1800 request help! A1800 request help! System failure, AI automatic control failure, mecha stall, unable to land in situ, there are four new students! Please help!”
Lin Zimao heard this, but he found that Ren Siran didn’t seem to respond, his eyes sank: “Senior, rescue people.”
Ren Siran gave Lin Zimao a cold look, he canceled the notification broadcast and switch it to headphone format.
Lin Zimao understood what he meant, he didn’t want to rescue people!
Lin Zimao punctured his thoughts: “You obviously heard the distress signal, you don’t want to rescue people?”
Ren Siran didn’t seem to care about the sudden accident over there, and said in a strangely indifferent way: “A1800 is a heavy mecha, we’ll be crushed to powder if we rush over rashly, I don’t want to die.”
Not only did Lin Zimao’s face darken, even his voice changed: “If you don’t dare to, let me do it, time is limited, they’re about to fall.” He reiterated again, “Rescue people.”
No one would think that the heavy mecha will have a system failure, Lin Zimao couldn’t hear the call for help, but he reached out and touched a button, and the announcement appeared again.
“A1800 request help! A1800 request help!”
Ren Siran glared at Lin Zimao: “How to rescue, I already said, I don’t want to die, you don’t know anything, rescue my ass! Don’t press randomly!”
Lin Zimao narrowed his eyes and glanced at him: “What kind of mecha warrior are you, fearing death! You don’t rescue people, I’ll rescue them!”
His finger slid across the button in front of the co-pilot, and the co-driving function was turned on.
Ren Siran was startled, and immediately said: “You dare! I’ve said don’t randomly touch!”
Lin Zimao really dares: “I can’t neglect dying person and not rescue them4見死不救 (jiàn sǐ bù jiù): to neglect a dying person and not rescue him or her; (figurative) to neglect a person in danger and not assist him or her; do nothing to save sb. from ruin; fold one’s hands and see sb. die; make no efforts to save sb whose life is endangered; refuse to help a dying man―be indifferent/apathetic/callous to others’misfortunes/tragedies.!” He pressed the screen in front of him without even looking, and started the AI program.
He said to Ren Siran: “Locate A1800 immediately now, your mecha is B305 model of Xingyuan in 2013, A1800 was produced by Xingyuan in 2008, a dash from the side can push A1800 to the forest fifty kilometers away, where it can be buffered! Hurry! I order you to turn around and save people right now!”
Seeing Lin Zimao’s operation, Ren Siran panicked, Lin Zimao’s familiar movements showed that he didn’t do it randomly, so he said viciously: “If I die, I’ll drag you with me!”
Compared with saving lives, he was even more afraid of Lin Zimao messing around on the mecha, he is the main operator.
Lin Zimao focused on Ren Siran’s operation: “Positioning and velocity measurement.”
The AI immediately located the position of A1800 and its descending speed.
AI: “Locate A1800 model mecha, and the descending speed is…”
Lin Zimao gave orders: “Push A1800 to the forest fifty kilometers away before it hits the ground, turn on the accelerator.”
AI: “Accelerator on.”
Ren Siran, who was forced to obey Lin Zimao’s command, tried his best to suppress his unhappiness, he thought this mission was very simple, but he didn’t expect this kind of thing to happen halfway, even if he is dissatisfied with Lin Zimao now, he can’t do anything for the time being.
The AI quickly calculates the falling speed of A1800 and reacts faster than the central control and other surrounding mechas.
Lin Zimao indicates to Ren Siran: “Explain the situation to the central control, we can save people right away! Ask them to do appeasement work.”
Half of the mecha was under Lin Zimao’s control, he didn’t know how the other party did it, so he can only bite the bullet and said: “Report, B308 is heading for A1800! Immediately push A1800 to the forest, please do the rescue work!”
“Central control, copy!”
A1800 is a heavy mecha, falling at this speed will definitely cause casualties to the people below, however, now by B308, which is closest to A1800, pushing it directly to the forest, the damage can be minimized.
Lin Zimao saw the falling A1800, he commanded the AI to continue to accelerate!
At the critical moment, B308 bumped into A1800, the two mecha collided and let out a blunt sound, Lin Zimao inside the mecha was also hit.
B308 successfully caught A1800!
Ren Siran couldn’t think about anything else at this time, and shouted angrily: “A1800 too heavy! We are also following the fall to the ground!”
Lin Zimao swiped the accelerator button on the screen and said: “Can’t die, keep accelerating!”
The AI reported: “Thirty percent of the energy left on board!”
Lin Zimao: “Continue, we will be crushed to death if we don’t speed up, of course, we may still be crushed to death.”
Ren Siran could only grit his teeth: “I fuck your ancestors!”
Lin Zimao still has the heart to respond to him: “Go ahead.”
Ren Siran: “…”
AI: “Ten percent of energy left!”
AI: “Five percent of energy left!”
AI: “One percent of energy left!”
Clang, clang, clang!
A two-person mecha hugged a five-seater heavy mecha and rolled into a dense forest fifty kilometers away, the birds in the forest were frightened and flew up, leaving a deep mark on the ground, and a bunch of trees fell in pieces!
The two mechas rolled and fell together, but it was considered a successful landing.
Half of the heavy mecha is pressed on the light two-person mecha.
It’s not known whether there were any casualties in the heavy mecha.
And Lin Zimao in the co-pilot seat of the two-person mecha was pushed against the seat by the popped airbag, his chest was tight and he couldn’t breathe, when the mecha fell and slid just now, he seemed to hit the back of his head, his head aching.
He managed to turned his head to glance at Ren Siran next to him, only to see him slumped over in his seat, with a little blood running down his forehead.
Before Lin Zimao fainted, he thought: Not dead is good.
He remembered someone told him the purpose of a mecha warrior: Fight bravely, advance bravely and determinedly5勇往直前 (yǒng wǎng zhí qián): to advance bravely and determinedly, without any fear; march right ahead courageously; march forward without hesitation; march ahead courageously., fearless of life and death!
Jiang Xuan noticed the anomaly, the other mechas had already landed in place, but the mecha Lin Zimao was sitting on was nowhere to be seen.
He heard one of the new student coming down from the mecha said: “Oh God, something happened to a mecha!”
Immediately a senior sister asked: “What happened?”
Male student said: “The senior on our mecha heard the call for help and was going to go to help, but there are seniors who react faster than him! Directly drove the mecha rushed over!”
Senior sister asked: “What’s the problem?”
Male student said: “It seems that there is a sudden system failure, the mecha stalls, unable to land!”
The new students who had already come down from the mecha discussed what they had just heard on the radio station, and they all want to know the final result.
Jiang Xuan’s face changed slightly, he didn’t see Lin Zimao’s mecha landing after a long time, he knew that the one Lin Zimao was sitting on must have gone to the rescue, his model was the latest, has the conditions for rescue.
When he thought about it, his heart skipped a beat.
But now he can only stand there and do nothing, thinking quickly about how to get specific information quickly.
Soon after, Jiang Xuan received the news from the central control.
The two mechas landed in the forest fifty kilometers away, now the school is sending professionals and medical staff to rescue them.
Jiang Xuan got good news and bad news.
The good news is that the lives of the seven people carried by the two mechas are safe.
The bad news is that four of the seven people are safe and sound6安然無恙 (ān rán wú yàng): safe and sound (idiom); to come out unscathed (e.g. from an accident or illness); (escape) in/with a whole skin; be (all) in one piece., two of the other three are unconscious and one is seriously injured.
Jiang Xuan found a counselor: “Yu Laoshi, I’ll go check the wounded.”
Yu Laoshi said: “I’ll go with you.” Lin Zimao is the student he is in charge of after all.
Jiang Xuan didn’t say anything, they let He Ling stay behind to take care of the appeasement.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere at the scene was too tense, everyone didn’t seem to notice that Jiang Xuan, who usually never takes the initiative to do the work, suddenly took the initiative to visit the wounded.
The mecha specially used for military training had an accident, the subsequent mecha experience couldn’t continue.
The school immediately ordered all the mecha to be sent back to the academy for a comprehensive overhaul.
Fortunately, the accident was handled in a timely manner and did not cause irreversible damage, if an irreparable accident happens to the new students, the reputation of the school will be damaged.
Jiang Xuan and Yu Laoshi rushed to the Central Hospital as quickly as possible.
When they arrived, four of them were being examined, three new students were intact, one was slightly injured, the nurse is bandaging his wound, what about the three others?
Director Liang asked them one by one if they had any problems, with a very concerned attitude.
Jiang Xuan scanned the faces of the four people, none of whom he knew.
What about Lin Zimao?
At this time, a doctor wearing a mask came out of the emergency room and explained the situation inside to Director Liang who had just arrived.
“Two are in a coma, and one needs simple surgery, please come in and confirm the patient’s identity with me.”
The author has something to say:
Lin Zimao: If I die, the article is over.
Jiang Xuan: Shut up.
Hahaha, true, can’t have LZM die…
