CHAPTER 1381: CHAPTER 1381 NEW AXE

"Hmph, those idiots from the Milky Way Alliance, that Axe was just one of my experiments, this one here is the real NO.1." You turned around and gestured to Zhao’er, who had learned martial arts and easily picked up Li Qimeng.

The three of you settled inside the cockpit of Axe. Originally, there was only one seat in the cockpit, but after you quickly typed on the keyboard, the space behind you suddenly doubled, adding another seat.

Seeing Zhao’er place Li Qimeng in the seat, you laughed to Zhao’er: "Zhao’er, I specifically arranged this seat for you, why let her sit instead? This lady is thick-skinned, just put her aside casually."

You tied up Li Qimeng with a rope and placed her carelessly beside the seat, ignoring her since her hands and feet were bound, making her unable to do anything.

At this moment, Axe’s eyes shot out a blue light, and the screen showed a scene entirely different from reality, with many people bustling about. You smiled at Zhao’er: "What we’re seeing now is the information sent from another machine. Look at how busy these so-called scientists are."

"Yun, is there a difference in performance between these two?"

"Of course there is. The former is just an experimental model I made during production. Although the two Mech Soldiers look the same, their internal structures are vastly different. That experimental Axe has some performance features that are not yet complete, especially the propulsion system. When I was making it, I didn’t have a Babiluyise propulsion engine, which I stole from the factory’s secret warehouse. Since there was only one, I didn’t install it on the prototype."

"Is there any difference without this engine?" Zhao’er asked.

"To put it simply, the Axe we’re sitting in now is like a prairie cheetah, while the prototype is like a hound. The Babiluyise propulsion engine also has an excellent control device that allows the mech to stop suddenly or change direction during supersonic flight. This Axe also has a high-hardness Alloy Sword and Ion blade, as well as twenty-one energy emitters. Even if surrounded by a hundred Kuzus, I can still break through."

Yet at this moment, a vicious smile appeared on your face: "I intended to give the prototype to the Alliance Army from the start, never thinking they’d steal it themselves and store it in their Mars Headquarters. They might not know yet that the prototype is a powerful nuclear bomb, equivalent to a small ion bomb. This nuclear bomb system was incredibly hard to find."

At this time, a string of English appeared on the control screen (the cockpit has two screens, one for external view and one for control), meaning: "Detonate?"

"This big gift is all free." As you were about to press the button, Zhao’er suddenly embraced you, "Zhao’er, what are you doing?"

"Yun, they are innocent, aren’t they? The heinous ones are those officers, not the staff involved."

"How can you say they’re not involved? Think about it, without them, where would the Alliance Army get so many battleships, or weapons to invade other planets? They produce thousands of weapons to kill every day. If we don’t kill them, even more people will die in the future! Once Axe explodes, the entire Alliance Army’s research department will be reduced to ruins in an instant, and with it, all their scientific research efforts. This blast will doom the Alliance Army."

"Yun, how is this different from being an executioner?" Zhao’er’s eyes brimmed with tears, "Didn’t you say you wanted to create a true Utopia?"

"But this is war, and in war there is no such thing as mercy." Though saying this, your hand visibly paused.

"There is, we should always hold compassion in our hearts. Sometimes, the enemy isn’t necessarily our enemy. They, like us, hold compassion too. They’re just forced to work; often they’re just like us."

"But if I don’t destroy it, in half a year, the Alliance Army will produce Axes with performance almost on par with the one I’m piloting. If they equip them well, they might far surpass this one. By then, no matter how many of me there are, I won’t stand a chance."

"Yun, since you built Axe, you should understand its performance features better than anyone. Can’t we just develop a better Mech Soldier targeting those features when the time comes?"

Since Zhao’er said this, you sighed slowly, opened the experiment Axe’s loudspeaker system, and told the Alliance Army Technology Department staff: "Good news for you, you won’t have to die. I was ready to blow you and the base to smithereens, but my wife stopped me. I swear I love my wife, so I won’t make her cry. I now warn you, the Axe experimental body will explode in ten minutes. If you have the ability to dismantle it, go ahead, but remember, only ten minutes."

After speaking, you cut off all contact with the experimental Axe body, not wanting the Alliance to know the message came from Zhonghua Star.

"Yun, is everything okay on their side?"

"It’s fine, there are many experts there; it won’t even take a few seconds to remove the nuclear bomb." You sighed and said, "Sigh, to think my wife could describe me as so incompetent."

"Yun——" Zhao’er rarely showed such a delicate demeanor, causing you to stare in a daze.

"Alright, alright, I won’t say any more; I’ll listen to you this time, but not next time."

You laughed and hugged Zhao’er in your arms, kissing her on the cheek. Originally, Li Qimeng was feigning unconsciousness, but upon hearing Zhao’er panting and whimpering, she suddenly opened her eyes and snorted coldly: "You shameless couple."

"Say that again if you dare." You coldly threw back a reply.

You raised your hand as if to hit her, and she defiantly lifted her face, the two of you locked in a standoff.

"Come on, hit me!"

"I warn you, insult me all you want, but don’t insult my wife. I don’t like killing women, but don’t think I won’t hit a woman. As long as you’re my enemy, whether man or woman, I’ll kill without hesitation!"

Li Qimeng coldly snorted, "I must have been blind to let someone like you into the Technology Center! But you won’t be smug for long; my uncle will definitely avenge me!"

Li Qimeng wanted to bite her tongue to kill herself, but you swiftly stopped her, tearing off her sleeve and stuffing it harshly into her mouth.

"If you want to die, you can wait until we reach a safe place." You gave her a cold look, then said to Zhao’er, "Watch her; we’ll need her on camera later."
