Chapter 390: Volcano Lion Beast Mecha
Date- 28 Mar 2321
Time- 09:29
Location- Southern Capitol region, SS-rank Gate dungeon Storm Horse Grassland
The green-colored grassed land was replaced by charred black ground filled with massive craters. And debris of the bombarded land was spread across the dungeon. Ashes of burnt grass and dust had filled the air covering the clear sky above. “I hope this should be evidence enough for the prowess of the beast mecha. What do you say, shall we switch to the next tier?” Looking at the devastation caused by Gale Eagle Beast mecha and Terrain Back Tortoise, I asked whether the havoc caused by the beast mecha satisfied her appetite.
“Yeah, that is more than enough. I got to say the capabilities of the beast mecha cards have exceeded more than anything I could ever imagine.” Anna was impressed by the destruction displayed by the mecha beasts.
“I thought that the beast mechas large body would make them a walking target, but the synonium alloy body is proving to be a sturdy and dependable defense.
Not to mention the movement and reflexes of the mechas are as agile and swift as the original beasts used to design the beast mechas.
Taking all this into account, the vast amount of soul jades spent in the creation of these cards is starting to seem worth it.” Luna did not hold back praise and expressed her admiration for the beast mechas.
“No matter how good golem and puppet cards are when trapped in an array of a capable card apprentice, they will lose.” Seeing his beloved granddaughter sing praises of another man’s creation, Lorenzo, as a certified granddaughter-con, could not hide his jealousy and displayed his hostility towards me by comparing his array mastery with my mecha mastery.
“Old man, stop comparing your diddly array cards with these Monsters of metal. Each one of these things is like a war god. Arrays are helpful, but they are not as badass as these metal giants here.” Anna respected both the Array and Mecha fields, but there was no denying that Mecha’s were more awesome and super cool. Just looking at them in action made her blood boil. It has been a long time since she has been this enthusiastic about something. And she did not want Lorenzo’s whining to spoil her fun.
“Yes, grandpa comparing arrays with mecha is not fair for either of the fields as they both have their areas of expertise. And If I have to choose between an array or a mecha card for combat, I would prefer a mecha card as it increases individual prowess by a massive margin. If it’s group combat, then an array card would be a better choice.” Luna found the idea of comparing two different types of cards ridiculous because each card has its area of excellence. It depends on the card apprentice to judge the situation and deploy the cards appropriately.
“Speaking of array cards, let’s continue to the last part of the demonstration, the Earth Wind and Fire Formation.” announcing that I summoned my grimoire and activated the Volcano Lion Rider Ring card,
“Activate Tier1, Volcano Lion Power Suit”
The beast mecha ring emitted bright red light covering my entire body. As the red glow diminished, my usual attire had changed into a Red Power Suit. Feeling the skin-tight power suit covering my body clenched my fists excitedly as I felt the power of fire broken rune enhancing the power suit.
“Activate Tier2, Volcano Lion Exoskeleton Armor.”
Done admiring the red power suit, I activated the second-tier of the card, Volcano Lion Exoskeleton Armor. Soon the red power suit started to glow with brilliant red light, and the next second, as the right light receded, I found myself in 7-meter tall Volcano Lion Exoskeleton armor. Next, I felt an unknown energy course through my body, enhancing my body’s physical capabilities by several folds. After getting used to the new physical reinforcement, I started to use my mental strength to check if all the weapons of the exoskeleton were responding. Plasma Claws, Force Shield, Gatling Energy Cannon are all loaded and ready to rumble. After inspecting the weaponry, I began to the Motory functions and controls of the exoskeleton. So far, all good, finding no issue with the exoskeleton, I decided to activate the third tier.
“Activate Tier3, Volcano Lion Beast Mecha”
“Bang”
Upon activation of the third tier of the card, a brilliant, blinding red flash burst out of the exoskeleton, and I found myself sitting in a luxurious cabin I had built for the beast mechas in their skull region.
“Roar”
The Volcano Lion let out a roar announcing its presence. After admiring the view from here, I began inspecting the beast mecha and its various systems. Both the axillary and primary power sources showed positive responses. Motory and weaponry functions and controls of the mecha were working off the charts. Then I contacted with broken rune spirit, which acted as the central AI of the beast mecha. With its presence, the movements of the mecha became smoother and looked more natural. After all, be it Cortney or the clown mask or me, this was our first time riding a beast mecha; if not for the Broken rune’s spirits acting as the mecha AI, we would not have been able to control the exoskeleton or the breast mecha so effortlessly and smoothly.
Finding no fault after inspecting the volcano lion beast mecha turned on the Earth Wind and Fire Formation, I contacted the mother and daughter pair riding the Gale Eagle beast mecha and Terrain Back Tortoise Mecha, ” Girls, can you hear me?”
“Gale Eagle Beast Mecha Rider, Reporting” Cortney reported
“Terrain Back Tortoise Beast Mecha Rider, Reporting” Clown Mask followed the lead of her daughter and reported.
“Good to know you girls have gotten comfortable with all the controls of your beast mechas. Now let’s switch to Earth Wind and Fire Formation.”
“Activate Earth Wind and Fire Formation, Volcano Lion Limb Piece.”
“Activate Earth Wind and Fire Formation, Terrain Back Tortoise Chest Piece.”
“Activate Earth Wind and Fire Formation, Gale Eagle Head Piece.”
