next second

A gentle man wearing glasses had an idea one day to make a weapon that could be worn on the body and give the user great combat power.As the best scientist in Mechanic City, he has the ability to use the best materials, the most sophisticated instruments, the most powerful engines, the best scientists and his deputy who can already be alone are working hard day and night.The man first worked independently for ten years, and then he met Sarah, who was only ten years old, and took the homeless Sarah as his apprentice. The two worked hard together for another ten years, and finally completed this suit.

The man has been recognized by the battle suit, he can freely control this suit, and thus gained great combat power.But the 99th floor didn't allow this to happen, so they sent an army general to snatch the suit, but the general was defeated by the man in the suit.After that, the 99th floor found out that the man had participated in the construction of the floating battleship Tiangong Wing and did not accept Kate's flag.The next thing is that as everyone knows, the man who always smiled gently was publicly executed for helping the most evil criminal, the phantom angel Kate, to build a mobile fortress. The surviving Sarah publicly announced that the mentor invented before his death. Anyone who has an idea can come to Machinery City to try on a battle suit that can knock the general down. Anyone who can show its power without being backlashed by the suit can take it away.After the declaration was issued, the government and anti-government forces from all over the country sent many people. Unfortunately, after ten years, no one can do the above two things. The 99th floor gradually believes that this suit is no longer just a flying suit. up.

Lights flashed in the dark world, it was the memory of that man.The memory of the suit itself.

This feeling is like being placed in a cemetery with ghostly lights, and ominous crying sounds come from behind.I know, it's resentment.

Choose to sign a contract with me?That’s right, it’s impossible for a weak me to conquer a powerful battle suit. My special ability may make the suit biologically capable of revenge independently of the user. In addition, choosing me can also continuously improve the suit itself.Relying on the mecha with a soul that keeps getting stronger by killing, in order to avenge the only master one day, and for the so-called answer we are looking for, at least we have the common goal of 99 floors.So, let's be companions, I believe that as soon as we reach the hundredth floor, everything will be over.

The darkness receded, and I looked at the battle suit on my body—it was automatically put on after touching it. Is this considered recognized?Or is it just pure mutual use?I can use its power anyway, right?

Facing the huge mirror, you can see the appearance of this suit.Generally speaking, it looks like a fighter jet with only a skeleton part. On my left and right sides are beautiful white wings, and the arms are covered with mech defenses. I wonder if there can be any weapons. A gun and a sword appeared. The gun is a very delicate pistol, but the sword is a lightsaber whose main body is light.I had a neck gaiter around my neck, the mecha cinched at the waist, and soft metal strips under the hipbones made the suit look like a skirt with wings and rear motors.I could tell from Sara's gaze that the mech had never been shown like this before, and the memory of the mech I read just now also knew that when the man put on the mech, it was in the gentle-looking golden priest form.Does it have different forms according to different users? It's really an interesting battle suit.

Don't be too happy, little girl.

The voice from the bottom of my heart, no male or female, I knew it was the battle suit talking to me.

Your ability is indeed very good, exactly what I need, but you are too weak to bear my power, so you only have 3 minutes to use it.These 3 minutes refer to 3 minutes per day, which can be used for 24 minutes every 3 hours and cannot be superimposed.Once this period of use is exceeded, your body will be injured due to being unable to withstand my strength, and death is not impossible.

never mind.Usually I don't need to fight, as long as I have the ability to protect myself in critical moments, that's enough.After I overuse the ability on the surface, I will have a long period of combat power vacuum. The ability of the weapon's biological transformation cannot be used for a certain period of time. It is good to have this thing.

We stayed here overnight, because we were in a serious aunt's house, everyone was a little cautious, and we didn't dare to do anything at night.When I got up early the next morning, I wanted to meet the apprentice recommended by Sara, but unexpectedly, the troublesome apprentice had left a letter saying that she was going to build an invincible warship for the lawless sea emperor, so she had to leave first in order not to hurt the master.

Sara didn't want to go with us, but she gave us an airship in exchange for my suit.On the one hand, beware of the government or criminals snatching the battle clothes, on the other hand, she has to constantly find adaptations for this weapon. She must have been very tired in the past ten years.After being sent to the door of the studio by her, we boarded the airship, let this big guy with a length of about 12 meters rise vertically slowly, and accelerated a little bit to the next target city.I lay on the guardrail and watched the city of machinery gradually go away, feeling unspeakably sad in my heart.Sarah, I hope you are doing well.

The airship is 12 meters long, [-] meters wide and [-] meters high. The interior is divided into three independent small rooms. The smallest room looks like it can be used as a kitchen. The largest room has a cork floor and can be used as a bedroom for six people.In fact, even ten people can be accommodated, but we are actually two couples, and it would be inconvenient for us to live together.Shangguanhui immediately said after hearing my cryptic expression, please treat her like air on a boat. She has the ability to automatically reduce her presence when needed, so I can’t say anything, and Lilith doesn’t express any opinions. , It should be that you don't understand what I mean at all.

A bedroom with an area of ​​1.5 square meters takes up one-third of the airship, and the smaller storage room takes up another one-fifth. Our activities inside the airship are actually extremely limited. Fortunately, the top of the airship can be opened The skylight allows us to climb to the platform on the zenith, which is a comfortable and safe place with 3000 square meters and 38 meters high hardwood guardrail.Such a custom-made airship should cost more than [-] million Sol, and Sarah gave it to us in order to express my gratitude to us.It is really a good means of transportation, with a maximum speed of [-] knots and a cruising speed of [-] knots. Powered by solar energy, it can basically fly infinitely. Even in cloudy and rainy days, the energy stored is enough to support continuous flight for three hours.If such a thing was brought to the original world, even the Pentagon would be jealous.

What we gained in Mech City are these two: battle suits and airships.The battle suit inhabits my soul world during the safe period, and it will only appear when fighting. The automatic wearing equipment, the airship is the big guy under our feet at this moment.Exquisite means of transportation that people don't know what words to use. In addition to the basic requirements of being an airship, it also has bulletproof treatment. The hard shell can block the shooting of almost all light weapons; the most important point is that it has temperature regulation. Device, this is the air conditioner of another world.Such a means of transportation, I believe, was absolutely priceless in our original world.

"The next goal is the Wangcheng on the first floor, which is the worst city inside the Tower of Eternity, but it is the place we must pass through." Xue Ling looked at the data set and frowned, "As the name suggests, the Wangcheng is the royal family. Generally speaking, the royal family should live on the 99th floor, but in fact, the 99th floor is only where the government and the emperor reside. Those princes and nobles basically live on the 51st floor. Unless they are general-level soldiers or governor-level administrative officials Or the insiders of the royal family, everyone who sees the royal family should kneel down on their knees and look down at the ground to express respect and submission to the royal family, just like ancient Chinese etiquette. Before that, we are going to another one with it A city that is almost as bad is called Gluttony City. The people in the city don’t think about anything except eating. Those who fly in the sky, run on the ground, swim in the water, eat anything that will not be poisoned after eating, and if someone wants When you die, you will choose a very delicious and highly poisonous food to eat. It is a very abnormal city. Compared with it, the class oppression in Wangcheng is acceptable."

The airship passed through the entrance on the first floor, and a different world appeared in front of us.

Rivers and lakes.

What a beautiful world.Transparent atmosphere and equally clear water, a few clouds are still in the sky.It's getting late, so let's spend the night here, and hide our airship in this seemingly untouched place, so that it won't be stolen.Afterwards, we can find other means of transportation to go to a city fifteen kilometers away to obtain further information about the Royal City before making further plans.

"Girls, I forgot to tell you one thing. Don't provoke the royal family. Once there is a conflict with the royal family, a large number of troops will be attracted. You are adventurers who want to go to the top. It is not wise to conflict with the royal family. choose."

It turns out that the screen-like thing on the channel wall in the cabin is really a screen.I looked at Sarah on the screen, and Sarah took a sip of water from the glass before continuing: "Once the royal family is attacked or threatened, the 99th floor will send out powerful combat forces depending on the degree of threat. If a team like yours attacks the royal family , I am afraid that the ones dispatched will be at the general level or the commander-in-chief level, and you will not even be able to run away. No matter what the royal family does to you, you must not resist, understand?"

I smiled and said, "Of course I understand, but it's impossible for Lilith to understand. Well, it will be fine when the time comes. Anyway, thank you, big sister."

"I have attached a high-strength bomb inside the airship I gave you. You can take out the bomb. The bomb will only be activated if it is in the hands of the person wearing the battle suit for more than five seconds, and then It can lock on an enemy and launch it. Even if the commander-in-chief of the three armies is bombed, he will basically lose his combat effectiveness. That is the high-compression bit bomb that the 99th floor has always wanted. The battle suit can only be used by those who have adapted it, so I will give it to you. Well, by the way, if you are really unlucky and have a conflict with the royal family and cause substantial damage to the royal family, take out the bomb The 99th floor can recruit one of you as a 'coordinator' to become a fighting force on the government's side, and the rest of you can be pardoned by the government as the coordinator's subordinates."

The display screen returned to darkness, and I looked at the empty cabin—it seemed that even if I told them not to resist them no matter how they were treated by the royal family, they would not accept it.Well, it's better to be the coordinator. Sister Sara is very good, and she pointed out another way for us.

The author has something to say:

The protagonist and his party are too weak, they have to find a place to practice... First of all, let the girls feel hopeless.
