The Undying Mecha Emperor

Chapter 286 Genius!

It may be an alien product made up of alien materials and alien technology, but it was nothing compared to devour.

If devour was active and well, it would have no problems whatsoever absorbing the alien blue mecha.

But alas for me, devour was in full hibernation mode!

No matter how hard I tried, I was unable to draw out even a tiny ounce of its red energy. My attempts to devour it completely failed to even take its first baby step.

Princess Louisa had no idea that I was attempting to rob her of her reward, and quickly stepped forward to activate the blue mecha.

The blue mecha was in the form of the monsters we just defeated, a four legged, three headed and horned beast.

It looked absolutely epic, and I couldn't help but sigh that I was unable to devour it.

As soon as she stepped close to it, a round opening appeared on its chest and revealed a small spherical chamber where a human being can stand with space to spare.

She turned to look at me questioningly, as if asking if it was okay for her to get into the mecha.

We both knew that I didn't need it, and that it was she that desperately needed the protection of a mecha suit. But she still wanted to make sure that I was okay with it.

I gave her a small nod, and she immediately entered it.

The opening closed up as soon as she was in.

My resonance told me that the cockpit was immediately filled with some sort of nanofluid which allowed her to completely control the mecha as though she was controlling her body.

"Impressive technology. They completely bypassed the need for resonance." I thought as I studied the impressive beast mecha.

But my surprise quickly became outright awe when the mecha suddenly trembled lightly and changed its shape to become that of a human being!

And not just any human being.

It was in the shape of Princess Louisa. A twenty five meter tall Princess Louisa.

"Holy mackarel! I need that technology!!" I shouted excitedly in my heart. "Well, not NEED, since I can do that already. But damn that's cool! Very cool!"

"This mecha is extremely impressive. The golden mechas of earth, though able to wield much greater power, are like ungainly, lumbering elephants compared to a graceful leopard." Princess Louisa enthused with great awe as she started to test out the mecha's movements.

My heart started to pound heavily as I watched Princess Louisa move.

It was incredible.

And she was absolutely right.

The aliens used nanotech to copy Princess Louisa's form, and connect the ENTIRE mecha to her brain.

And her mecha movements were the perfect mirror to her body's movements. Every tiny detail, every little twitch, every small nuance in her movements, the mecha was able to perfectly copy and instantly manifest in action.

It was vastly different to the mechas of humanity.

Even though we were already able to control the mecha with our minds, it was a crude form of control, just like pressing the joystick of an arcade versus game to control a character.

We had to give mental orders to the mecha in the form of images that we wanted the mecha to do before it would move.

Of course I didn't have to do that, but that was due to the awesomeness of the red mecha core and the benefits that the red energy provided for me.

For the rest of the world, their control of their mechas were still relatively crude compared to how the aliens did it!

"I am able to exert a hundred percent of my human fighting skills in this mecha." Princess Louisa suddenly announced.

She leaped up with great agility and proceeded to do a series of complicated somersaults and high speed high complexity movements!

Whoos! Vash! Vosh!

Her hands cut through the air at extremely high speed and with abundant grace.

Just one look, and I knew for a fact that she was at least a million times more skilled than me in fighting.

Which was perfect, because the second stage was about to begin.

"Second stage. Objective, survive and defeat all of the elite beasts." Came the disembodied voice just as more portals opened.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

Hundreds of giant fifty meter tall humanoid beasts with disproportionately large heads and two pairs of arms wielding clubs thundered their way out of the portal.

As soon as their feet landed upon the green grass, they all glanced upwards to look at the green sky and started to howl loudly in a high pitched wail that sounded more creepy than fearsome.

Awooooo!! Awoooooowowoooo!!! Awawawoooo!!

And straight after they did that, they slammed their oversized clubs down to the ground a couple of times each and then exploded towards us in a planet shaking charge!

"Ok this is absolutely bonkers. You expect me, a small, unarmed ten year old boy to deal with hundreds of fifty meter tall, four limbed, club wielding giants?? Which dumbass lunatic is in charge of these games?" I shouted loudly as I winced at the frightful sight unfolding before me.

Of course, the dumbass lunatic did not deign to answer me.

But just as I was taking in a deep breath to steel my nerves and prepare for a wild and savage fight, a golden coloured mecha leapt ahead of me.

"Let me handle this stage. Just stay back and watch." Princess Louisa said without turning back.

And then in a fluid motion too quick for a normal eye to see, she stretched out both hands and pointed at the far corners of the stampeding horde of megaminds.

PRA TA TA TA TA TA!!!

High velocity projectiles shot out of her fingers and raked at every single monster on the frontlines.

As expected, she caught the attention of every single monster who instantly changed their direction to make their way to her.

That done, she charged ahead once more and quickly slammed into the first monster in a resounding collision.

BAAAMMMM!!! SPLATTER!!

A fifty meter tall beastly megamind literally exploded into pieces upon contact with Princess Louisa!

"WHAT THE HELL?" My jaw dropped.

It was no simple collision.

A simple collision would have simply flung the bigger fifty meter tall beast away.

But instead of that, the beast exploded instead??

I narrowed my eyes and focused all of my attention on Princess Louisa's mecha.

BAMMMM! SPLATTER!

Within a split second, the same thing happened once more to another beast.

And another.

And another.

And after the fifth one, I was ready to puke.

It was utterly disgusting and completely inhumane to watch.

She was bursting into those beastly megaminds as though she was a spiky metal ball colliding with a sea of rubber balloons filled with bits and pieces of flesh and blood.

"That alien mecha is disgusting." I concluded with great distaste.

I had no qualms whatsoever in killing ugly giant headed monsters. In fact, I wouldn't mind tearing into them and killing them all in a display of savagery and ruthlessness.

But what the beautiful Princess Louisa was doing was just pure... Carnage.

I mean, killing a beast by stabbing your sword into its heart, or even severing its limbs or head was one thing.

Causing them to burst apart and have all their body parts, organs and bones flying around EVERYWHERE again and again and again and again was a completely different thing altogether!

The first one makes you a butcher.

The second one makes you a demonic psychopath.

And I was no psychopath, much less a demonic one.

But strangely, despite my growing urge to puke, I was also mesmerized by Princess Louisa's graceful efficiency in her movements.

Every single punch she threw, every single kick, and every single body slam were chained perfectly to achieve maximum impact over the shortest distance and quickest time.

There was not a single wasted movement in her massacre of the beastly megaminds.

It was as though the beastly megaminds were standing still with their hands raised up high in surrender!

"How the hell is she able to avoid so many clubs swinging about like damned flies? And even do it so gracefully?" I frowned slightly jealously.

I focused my attention on her arms first, before moving down to her legs.

And it was there that I finally realized the key to all successful movement techniques.

"Circles. Flow." My eyes widened in enlightenment. "Every movement must be part of a larger flow, and must have an avenue to continue! It is true with arm movements, and it is especially true with feet! We cannot place ourselves in a position where we have no way of continuing an act."

And as soon as I understood that simple concept, I began to look at Princess Louisa's movement techniques in a different light.

"I see! So that's why we spin! That's why our feet are always placed facing the direction we want to go next! Efficiency! Flow! Excellent! Excellent! This Princess Louisa is actually a genius!" I cried out in my heart excitedly.
