Following that, the person in charge of the handover took out the communicator in his hand and directly connected to the communication channel of Qin Yue and the others.

“Everyone, please alight from your mecha for the time being.”

“Later, there will be a staff member who will be in charge of transporting your mecha into the fortress.”

Everyone did not hesitate. It did not take long for them to alight from the cockpit one after another.

“Everyone, our fortress is having an energy exchange with another one at this time. It’s currently very dangerous.”

“Follow me into the safe area and familiarize yourself with the environment.”

As he said that, the face of the personnel suddenly changed and reminded them seriously.

“During this period, do not leave the fortress. Otherwise, none of us will be responsible for what happens!”

When some of the students heard these words, they laughed lightly in disdain.

“What danger can there be? At the very least, we are still mecha pilots!”

“This is making a mountain out of a molehill. Don’t tell me we can’t guarantee our own safety with our mecha?”

“That’s right, this is looking down on us too much!”

Wang Yangming heard the conversation of these students did not pay any attention to it.

How could a greenhouse flower grow without first experiencing some difficulty!

On the other side, after Qin Yue heard this, he could not help but have a lot of doubts in his heart.

When Wang Yangming and this handover staff talked about the energy interaction, their faces subconsciously turned serious.

Obviously, the entire energy exchange process would be very dangerous.

Qin Yue, who did not understand the situation, looked at his tutor, Wang Yangming, to seek an answer.

Seeing his inquisitive expression, Wang Yangming explained calmly.

“The energy of the fortress is very attractive to Alien Beasts.”

“If Alien Beasts obtain the radiation energy of the fortress, the huge amount of radiation energy can easily evolve into a more dangerous one of higher rank!

“And there is enough energy in this fortress for hundreds of Alien Beasts to feed on!”

As soon as those words were spoken, the few people who had been a little disdainful just now all sucked in a few breaths of cold air.

They might be able to deal with a few Alien Beasts at a time, but against an Alien Beast tide… They would probably be smashed to a pulp alongside their mechas!

Qin Yue’s reaction was completely the opposite of theirs.

When he heard about the Alien Beast tide, Qin Yue instantly realized that it was a good opportunity to complete the mission.

At the same time, this was also a rare chance to temper his skills.

“Students, the energy transfer had just begun not long ago so it’s better for all of you to follow me into the safe rooms first!”

Qin Yue did not directly reject the staff’s arrangement for them to enter the mobile fortress, instead, he walked to Wang Yangming’s side and asked.

“Teacher, since our mission for coming to the desolate star trial is to hunt fierce beasts, can we use this opportunity to complete this mission?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the students around Qin Yue cast astonished gazes at Qin Yue.

“This… This monster. Qin Yue, this involves more than just one or two beasts. Yet he dares to go out there?”

“Fifty beasts. He can’t possibly think of completing it in one go, right?”

“Forget it! Qin Yue and his team aren’t on the same level as us. Their thinking is naturally different from ours!”

“You guys have the strength of their team. I reckon you’d want to go too!”

Hearing those words, the students could not help but feel a trace of shame.

After all, as top-notch students, the gap between them and Qin Yue was indeed very big.

After Wang Yangming heard what Qin Yue said, he did not deny it.

With Qin Yue’s strength and the Sky Hunter Mecha, if it was just some Disaster-level Alien Beasts, Wang Yangming still had confidence that Qin Yue might be able to do it.

After that, Wang Yangming glanced at the seven small teams and said.

“Hunting fierce beasts comes with many dangers. If you have any concerns, you can return to the stay in the safe rooms first.”

“As for those who have the same courage as Qin Yue, you can also pilot your mecha and use the effects of the castle’s energy exchange to hunt fierce beasts!”

“You can make the decision on your own. I won’t interfere.”

Other than the team Qin Yue was in, the other six teams looked at each other and lowered their heads one after another.

It was not that they didn’t have the courage, but they knew their own limitations. There was no way they could deal with groups of Alien Beasts.

“For those who want to hunt Alien Beasts, you may discuss a strategy with your team. Those who don’t want to participate may stay in the safe rooms for now. After familiarizing themselves with the environment, each team will look for a suitable opportunity to hunt Alien Beasts.”

After Wang Yangming finished his explanation, Qin Yue looked at Ling Ru, Tang Lin, Li Yanyan, and Wang Jun…

Ling Ru naturally understood that Qin Yue was asking for their opinions. Without even thinking, she spoke up.

“Qin Yue, don’t worry. We’re a team. Of course, we’ll advance and retreat together!”

“Brother Qin Yue, the three of us are the same. We’ll advance and retreat together.”

Li Yanyan and the others followed closely to respond.

Hearing their replies, the corners of Qin Yue’s mouth curled up slightly. As expected, he had not misjudged their characters.

“Don’t worry, everyone. We can bring our mecha out for a warmup first, then we can go to where the energy intersects to assess the situation and level of the Alien Beasts.”

“If there really is a danger of death, I won’t lead us to our deaths!”

Hearing this, Ling Ru was unhappy. She crossed her arms in front of her chest with a proud look on her face and said angrily, “Hmph, don’t underestimate us. We aren’t afraid!” 

“Little Brother Qin Yue, we’re not weak either!”

Hearing their replies, Qin Yue could not help but shake his head and laugh.

He did not expect them to have such bravado. He had underestimated Ling Ru and the others.

“Alright, then before we take action, let’s understand each other’s battle styles.”

Following that, Qin Yue was the first to speak.

“My Sky Hunter is good at close combat. Of course, it’s also capable of long-range fire support!”

“Assault type, close combat,” Wang Jun followed up.

“I’m piloting a Devastator type, so I’ll be in charge of long-range support!”

Tang Lin pointed at a specially made rifle on the back of her mecha.

“Mine is a High-speed type, good at wandering on the battlefield and hit and run tactics.”

“Mine is the same as Sister Ling Ru’s. It’s also the High-speed type. It’s also good at providing support,” Lin Yanyan said softly.

After the introduction was completed, Qin Yue nodded and continued.

“Alright, then Wang Jun and I will be responsible for fighting head-on. Ling Ru, Yanyan, you guys will be responsible for restraining and killing any beasts that get past me and Wang Jun. When necessary, you guys can also support us.

“Tang Lin will try her best to be in charge of sniping and supporting us from the safe zone between Wang Jun and me.

“Once we fight with the Alien Beasts, we must not leave each other’s sight!

“This is only a basic outline of our plan. Once the fight begins, there will be many changes. We will act according to the situation!”

Just like that, after a short exchange, a basic fighting formation was agreed on.

“Roger!”

“Understood…” the few of them replied one after another.

“Let’s go. Our target is the energy rendezvous point of the Mobile Fortress!”

The five of them set off one after another, piloting the mecha towards their destination.

Wang Yangming placed his hands on his back, watching as the five-man team left the port.

From the side, the staff responsible for the handover looked at Wang Yangming, who did not move, and could not help but feel a little puzzled.

Under normal circumstances, when a student carried out a mission for the first time, he would be accompanied by a tutor to prevent any accidents from happening.

Yet this tutor did not seem to have any intention of leaving.

After waiting for a long while, the staff member saw that Wang Yangming still had not made a move, so he could not help but remind him.

“Sir, should we go after them?”

Hearing the staff member’s reminder, Wang Yangming said with a smile.

“Move out? Hmm, It’s indeed time to move out. Otherwise, we won’t be able to enjoy their performance if we’re late.”

Hearing that, the staff member’s mouth could not help but twitch.

‘Enjoy the battle?

‘Are you out of your mind?! It’d be good enough if those students aren’t already beaten to a pulp by the Alien Beasts. Yet you still expect a performance out of them?’

However, he only thought about it in his heart and did not say it out loud.

After all, this was something out of his control..
