The Seventh Base-Chapter 591 - 37: Where is the female devil?
Xu Mo, Old Stark, Zero, and the others were all watching the live broadcast at home.
This was Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s first battle, and the promotional effect had been achieved. They had also contacted the Extraordinary Agency through various channels and were ready to participate in the Mechanical God Arena.
But just then, they encountered someone who came to sabotage the event.
At this moment, there was a chorus of boos, and many people around them dispersed.
"The person who took action is strong and came prepared. He shouldn’t have been so eager to make a move," Old Stark said. He was referring to his Mechanical Masters below. There was still a gap in strength, and the Divine Sword Bureau also had people present. Even if they were to go on stage wearing armor and relying on weapon superiority, at the very least, they wouldn’t have been defeated so quickly.
"His reaction speed is very fast, and his weapon is also strong. Even people from the Divine Sword Bureau might not have an advantage if they entered the arena," Xu Mo said, "That person must be anything but simple. I wonder who’s behind this."
The Mechanical God Arena brought together numerous mechanical elite powerhouses. Kaman, as a top figure in the arena, had very strong combat power. Xu Mo had roughly seen Kaman’s strength during the brief encounter—the perfection of evading firepower coverage, and the control of timing during the clash was also perfect.
The outcome of a battle with someone from the Divine Sword Bureau would be hard to predict.
On the scene, Ross and the others were somewhat at a loss, watching as their arrangements were thrown into disarray. The Mechanical Master was rescued from the mecha and had sustained severe injuries.
Ye Qingdie was in control of the scene, instructing people to liaise with the media to prevent leaking the event.
If Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s first battle ended in a disastrous defeat, it would be very difficult for them to recover.
Elizabeth and the others at the scene also looked upset.
At that moment, Ye Qingdie received a call from Xu Mo.
She answered it.
"Sister Butterfly, don’t worry about the media, let them spread the word," Xu Mo said over the communicator, causing Ye Qingdie to pause and ask, "Why?"
"Negative exposure is also hype," Xu Mo said, "Especially when the tables turn, the previous negative exposure will actually be useful."
"Alright," Ye Qingdie nodded.
"Have Ross find out the identity of that person as fast as he can and then send it to me," Xu Mo continued.
"Understood," Ye Qingdie nodded, and people on the scene started to get busy.
Kaman was a well-known figure in the Mechanical God Arena, making it easy to find information about him. Soon, Xu Mo’s communicator received a file on him.
Kaman, a Mechanical Master, Source Power Level A+, a regular in the Mechanical God Arena, with brilliant battle achievements, a member of the Mechanical King Guild. The guild was a very active one in the arena, and only those who had won first place in a single event were qualified to enter the Mechanical King Guild, which was full of masters.
The guild was backed by a Mechanical Group, essentially making all its members representatives of the group.
This type of situation was common in the Mechanical God Arena.
"So, is this suppression between competitors?" Xu Mo murmured after he obtained the information.
"Before today’s press conference, all of Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s data was confidential, known only to core personnel. How could it attract the attention of competitors? Moreover, since the other party is a large group, they wouldn’t be so wary of a new company," Old Stark said after seeing the information.
Xu Mo nodded, indicating there might be more to the story.
Just then, Xu Mo’s communicator vibrated.
"Sister Butterfly," Xu Mo answered.
"Fu’s team wants to send people from the Divine Sword Bureau with equipment to the arena," Ye Qingdie said.
"They don’t need to trouble Fu’s team. I’ll go," Xu Mo said.
"Sure," Ye Qingdie nodded. There was certainly no problem with Xu Mo going.
"Witch, it’s been a long time since you’ve fought seriously. Would you like to get involved?" Xu Mo looked at Zero beside him and asked.
"Sure," Zero’s eyes lit up a bit.
It really had been a long time since she’d fought.
At Lucas University, she was majoring in history!
She’d become rusty.
Moreover, she hadn’t neglected her cultivation, and her level was now the same as Xu Mo’s at A.
"Hmm," Xu Mo thought about how in previous fights, Zero had always been his opponent, with only a few occasions where they fought side by side. Now there was another opportunity.
With Zero’s combat power and the new equipment they had developed, she was bound to dominate.
"Do you mind taking Sister Butterfly with us? The group has developed weapons that need to be shown off, and Sister Butterfly is particularly skilled with firearms, which would be good to demonstrate to everyone," Xu Mo said, their newly developed guns needed someone to flaunt them.
They weren’t just going to fight; they also had the objective of showcasing the weapons, effectively advertising.
Zero seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then nodded: "Okay."
"Let’s set out," Xu Mo said. After he and Zero put on their equipment, they left the company directly. The flying device cut through the air, flying over the capital of Lucas Star, a city filled with science fiction elements where the sky and the ground were swarming with various flying devices and people wearing equipment.
Especially when they arrived in the Mechanical Kingdom, the sense of science fiction was even stronger with grandiose mechanical buildings and countless mechanical bodies active in this "city." The sky was filled with flying mechanical bodies, creating an incredibly spectacular sight.
When they arrived at the press conference venue, there weren’t many onlookers left due to the disruption, but there were still quite a few taking photos, a very typical failed press event.
On the way, Ye Qingdie had already received a notice from Xu Mo. At this moment, she too had put on her equipment. Her Source Power level was still very low, but she wasn’t going to the arena to fight. Just showing off the weapons would be enough.
