C90

Ling Sa was surprised that Luo Danfaang would say this. He pressed the button for the elevator and turned around to look at Luo Danfaang who was obviously unhappy. With a smile that was not a smile, he said, "I think you don't care about these things."

"How could I not care at all?"

Luo Danfaang looked depressed and said: "If there's a bunch of bored people scolding you on the internet every day, how can you not be depressed? Even if I don't want to argue with them, I have no other choice. I can't possibly grab them and beat them up one by one, right? What kind of retorts are they... "Sigh, at the end of the day, I was born with a bad background. If I wasn't from the 18th region, there wouldn't be so many people scolding me."

Luo Danfaang had never resented this point. In his opinion, although District 18 was a mess, the people there were not worse off than the people outside.

He would rather interact with the people who brazenly tried to find him for a fight, than to interact with the people who only knew how to find the existence of black people online. If he was truly annoyed, then who could be more noble than him?

After the elevator arrived, the two of them took the elevator downstairs and soon arrived at the parking lot.

On the way back, Ling Sa said, "You should also pay more attention to what happened between you and Dikwell that day."

After all, what he did that day was rather embarrassing. However, since Luo Danfaang took the initiative to bring up the gossip, Ling Sa would not let go of this opportunity.

Luo Danfaang didn't want to hide it. Anyhow, as long as Dikwell agreed to work with him, everyone would know about this matter within a month or two.

Luo Danfaang said: "I'll just ask Dick if he needs protection during the Silver Edge Ranking Ranking Competition."

Ling Sa was surprised. There were about one to two hundred guardians in the school, but not many of them had actually boarded a mech before.

There were a few senior students who had a fixed partner, but those partners had close relationships with them — lovers or friends. He had never seen a Machinist who had a stranger act as his guardian.

Even if the Guardian had a partner, in the end, the Guardian would not be able to sit in the front passenger seat in an official battle.

Ling Sa said, "Up till now, I still don't understand the reason why you chose this major. I saw other Machinist bringing them to the battlefield when we were in the army, but those guards' stamina simply couldn't keep up with them. On the contrary, Machinist had to match up with their physique, so it didn't work."

"What if his body fitness level is able to keep up?"

Luo Danfaang turned around and smiled at Ling Sa, saying, "There must be a reason for the appearance of guardians. It's just that after these hundred years, the mechs are getting stronger and stronger, Machinist's reliance on guardians is getting weaker and weaker, and with the addition of the fact that a lot of people compare the guardian to a mecha restorer, he doesn't really care about the condition of his body. That's why the guardians are getting weaker and weaker, becoming more and more distant from their original intentions."

In his previous life, he had rejected the Guardian Profession at first, and he also knew that under all kinds of circumstances, he could not become a Guardian without distracting himself from it. However, later on, he coincidentally saw Machinist cooperating seamlessly with his Guardian under extremely dangerous circumstances and became interested in the Guardian.

During his years as Star Pirate, Luo Danfaang spent most of his free time researching the role of a Guardian.

The Guardian could find the place where the Battle Mecha needed to be repaired and the scattered data codes among the Intelligent Mecha. It would create the most comfortable environment for Machinist.

All of these required the guardian to have a good understanding of the mecha, an excellent knowledge of artificial intelligence, and a good grasp of the battle situation and timing. Of course, the guardian's physical strength to keep up with Machinist's speed and control was an indispensable prerequisite.

Anyone could be a guardian, or at the very least, a statue in the passenger seat, but not anyone could be a good guardian.

Ling Sa frowned slightly. He was not satisfied with Luo Danfaang's specialty. When he heard that Luo Danfaang wanted to be someone else's guardian, he also felt uncomfortable.

"Why Dikwell?" Ling Sa asked.

Luo Danfaang said, "Do you even need to ask? If you want me to be your guardian, I naturally won't look for him."

After saying that, Luo Danfaang was a bit regretted-- He said it as if he was complaining about Ling Sa, but he didn't mean it that way.

"I don't have any other meaning to that. I need money, and Dikwell is the only person I can find who could possibly agree to let me into his mech. Luo Danfaang explained.

Ling Sa wanted to say that he was very willing to spend money on Luo Danfaang, but he knew that Luo Danfaang definitely wasn't willing to accept it, so he gave it a thought.

After all, their relationship wasn't stable yet. Once it stabilized, everything would be fine.

After a while, he said slowly, "I don't need to protect. And you know, I have a deep-rooted aversion towards this profession, every time I see the guardian, I think of my dad — the betrayal of the guardian is a fatal blow to Machinist."

Luo Danfaang's heart skipped a beat.

"When you were in the 18th region, have you heard of the battle at the Twilight War?" Ling Sa asked casually.

Luo Danfaang's fingernails dug into his palm. Of course, he knew about the war between the two countries that happened more than a decade ago and became known as the "Twilight of the War God".

Because of the Energy Star, the number of battles between the Ximing Empire and the Star Glory Federation were not few.

At that time, Ling Beihan was not even thirty years old, he was the only general who could completely control [S] class Artificial Intelligence Mecha.

He drove one of the Empire's three super S Artificial Intelligence Mecha, causing the Star Glory Federation of the four super S Artificial Intelligence Mecha to change color, not daring to touch its edge.

Originally, Ling Beihan could win that war, but at the last moment, he was betrayed by his most trusted friend —

The person who had been his close friend and guardian since the military academy, who had tampered with the code of the Intelligent Mecha and forcefully destroyed Ling Beihan's brain nerves, directly ejected him from the Intelligent Mecha that had also been severely injured by the reversion process, and disappeared into the universe without even finding his corpse.

According to his calculations, Ling Beihan's death rate was 99.99%, infinitely close to 100%. The only possibility left was that he didn't find the remains of the body.

However, floating in the universe, the probability of an accident was too great. After the brain nerves were destroyed, there were only basic vital signs left. If he couldn't even wake up, how could he still be alive?

When the news came, the entire country was shocked.

Since then, the Guardian's position has plummeted, becoming more and more dejected. Anyone who knew this piece of history would know that there was no hope for protecting this profession.

And the guardian who betrayed Ling Beihan, his identity was also revealed to the public after the war ended — he was called Qiao Mu, a spy placed in the Ximing Empire.

The battle still ended with the defeat of Star Glory Federation. Because Qiao Mu was also confirmed to have disappeared along with Ling Beihan, and was also confirmed to have died, Liu Qianyuan's partner in Star Glory Federation, Luo Hengzhi, immediately destroyed the procedures of the four Intelligent Mecha s of the Federation, causing the Battle Mecha to fall into a state of paralysis.

That would be a fatal blow to a country's military.

In this world, not many people knew who Qiao Mu was, but everyone knew who his partner was — Luo Hengzhi, who was known as the "Artificial Intelligence Mecha God".

Someone once said that the person who got Luo Hengzhi got this universe.

Before Luo Hengzhi's appearance, although the Intelligent Mecha had reached the point where it could resonate with a human, it was far from the point where Machinist's brainwave was connected to the sound wave of the intelligent body Battle Mecha.

However, Luo Hengzhi did it. Not only did he develop his artificial intelligence to its peak, he also allowed the human brain to resonate with the Intelligent Mecha and fuse with it during battle. He also expanded the Mech's second form into its third and even fourth form — — Even though it was only one form's progress, the Intelligent Mecha's power had undergone a qualitative change.

It was rumored that under the fourth form, the Intelligent Mecha's power was enough to destroy an entire planet!

Luo Hengzhi created a total of seven high level intelligent body mechs with his own hands, all using the ancient legend of the God of Heaven. Hence, they were called "Seventh Lord mechs".

Rumor has it that he built the eighth Ultimate intelligent body Mech, called Lucifer the God of Destruction. However, as no one had ever seen it before, it was only a rumor.

The Federation and the Empire had reached an agreement: Luo Hengzhi, the partner of the super S grade Ximing Empire's sinner, Qiao Mu, would be extradited under the empire's laws and would be imprisoned in the eighteenth region forever.

Since then, no one had heard any news about Luo Hengzhi. Some people said that he was secretly imprisoned by the empire to allow him to continue making Intelligent Mecha s, while others said that Luo Hengzhi had been killed while escaping from the empire's army. There were also some that said that Luo Hengzhi was still hiding in a corner of the universe to continue his beloved career.

In short, everything about Luo Hengzhi became a mystery.

Luo Danfaang slowly released his hand and said with lowered eyes, "I know."

Ling Sa acknowledged and said: "That's why I will never allow a Guardian to enter the Michael again, because that would be a great insult and betrayal to my father."

Luo Danfaang suppressed his complicated feelings that were about to spill out and said: "I know."

Therefore, he had never thought of looking for Ling Sa from the beginning. The Guardian's betrayal had caused a huge wound in Ling Sa's heart. It could be said that Qiao Mu alone destroyed Ling Sa's family, and also destroyed Ling Sa's carefree and happy childhood.

As the heir to the clan, as well as Machinist, who was the only one who could be connected to the Michael by brainwaves, he took over the Intelligent Mecha that was brought back.

In the first and second forms, it was not considered obvious. However, the moment he entered the third form, it might cause irreversible damage to Ling Sa's brain due to the chaotic wave waves left behind by the high level intelligent body.
