Chapter 010: Devouring is for the Glutton.
The operation chamber is empty, and the mechs are under mysterious attack, but unfortunately, their operators are unconscious in the base, leaving the intelligent system helplessly issuing warnings
Two white tiger mechas, each standing 13 meters tall and weighing 50 tons, resemble two small mountain peaks, lying in the mecha bay. Their armored bodies, glinting with a cold, sharp light, are thick and solid, with no vulnerabilities apparent. To breach their defenses, ray guns and energy cannons are clearly insufficient. Given the current state of technology, unless equipped with laser guns or magnetic line cutting cannons, one would need to employ a high-frequency vibrating sword made of highly compressed alloy, similar to the one wielded by Xiao Qiushui, to stab directly into the white tiger's armor and pierce the mecha's cockpit with a single strike.

System scan initiated: Original Mecha, no rank, equipped with low-end intelligence core, armed with ray gun and energy cannon, energy pool shows no depletion
The two thick arms of the flowing fire pressed against the heads of the two white tigers, with ten fingers burning like flames, emitting dazzling light. The two white tiger mechas that were touched by the fiery fingers suddenly began to tremble rapidly, the intensity increasing more and more, no longer maintaining the calm and steady demeanor they had just moments before.
Faced with the two immobile white tigers, Qiu Ci found herself at a loss. She recalled a famous saying from the planet Nina: "A cow chewing on a pumpkin—there's no way to take a bite," although she had never seen the so-called cow and pumpkin.
Extract the molecules of Purple Moon Ore, removing unnecessary impurities; refine Eternal Light Energy, condensing the essence of energy
This is the exclusive term used by Grand Marshal William George for the lower class, and at this moment, it was unhesitatingly applied to Liuhuo by Qiuci
The extraction of purple moon ore gold has been completed, and the damage to the left wrist of the flowing fire has been repaired; the constant light energy has been refined, and the flowing fire energy pool has been replenished, with 30% of the remaining energy. Please continue to replenish.
Disgusting! Qiu Ci couldn't help but shake her head, as she was repulsed by her own thoughts
How exactly should one devour it? Crunching and chewing it into bits before swallowing it down, only to later expel a pile of scrap metal?
The flowing fire decomposes the Purple Moon Ore Gold from the White Tiger, and at this moment, it is necessary to refine the Purple Moon Ore Gold once again. Qiu Ci feels excited just thinking about it. After refinement, the hardness and flexibility of the Purple Moon Ore Gold will surely be enhanced once more, and this is merely intended to repair the areas where the flowing fire has flaked off.
Qiu Ci stared blankly at the bizarre scene unfolding before her. Including her past life, Liu Huo had accompanied her for at least ten years, and it could be said that she was thoroughly familiar with every device on Liu Huo.
The energy was completely drained, and the voice of the intelligence core within the White Tiger mech abruptly ceased. The two White Tigers, which had originally emitted a cold, harsh white light, now appeared incredibly dim, much like the land of Nina Star, whose dark brown surface was devoid of life.
System analysis initiated: The original mech, crafted from Purple Moon alloy, is capable of absorbing and repairing the flowing fire armor; its energy source is Eternal Light energy, which can replenish the flowing fire energy reservoir
This frustrating system, it turns out that the task of devouring mechas is not one hundred units, but a full two thousand! Qiu Ci was struck by this discovery, feeling dizzy and tearful, and she shouted in grief and anger: System deity, where am I supposed to find you two thousand immobile mechas for you to consume? Liuhuo, your appetite is enormous!
Orange alert, the shell has been nearly destroyed, the energy pool's energy is being extracted, danger, extreme
The system decomposition absorption mech has commenced
Extract the essence and discard the dross. — Proverb from the Ninas Star
Just like the White Tiger, the armor is made from high-compression synthesized steel mixed with Purple Moon Ore, making it incredibly hard and possessing exceptional defensive capabilities. However, as the Purple Moon Ore on the Purple Moon Star was nearly exhausted, a new material called Blue Steel, which is not inferior to Purple Moon Ore, was invented, leading to the gradual forgetfulness of Purple Moon Ore.
Perhaps due to Qiu Ci's prolonged inaction, the divine battle system activated automatically, and a cold, unperturbed voice echoed in her mind. Qiu Ci widened her eyes, eager to see how Liu Huo would devour the two small iron mountains before her
What? Only 0.1/100? Qiuci was once again stunned by the system's cold voice. It was already surprising that the disassembly of two white tiger mechas had merely repaired the almost negligible small injury on the left wrist of Liuhuo. Why did it take the consumption of two mechas to achieve 0.1/100?
Yet she had never known that Liuhuo possessed such extraordinary capabilities, directly decomposing the outer shell material of the mech. Her ten fingers extracted the most essential parts of the mech like the stingers of gray mosquitoes hidden among the rose bushes, sparing even the opponent's energy pool. However, while gray mosquitoes feed on humans, Liuhuo feeds on mechs. It was an eye-opening experience, leaving Qiu Ci dumbfounded.
Since obtaining the Flowing Fire, Qiu Ci had previously conducted specialized research on the material of the Flowing Fire's armor in her past life. Unfortunately, she was unable to determine what it was made of. She only knew that the Flowing Fire was more durable than any mecha, and no matter how advanced the high-tech materials were, they could never compare to the unchanging armor of the Flowing Fire over the span of ten years.
Purple Moon Gold is a refined essence extracted from Purple Moon Ore, requiring one hundred tons of Purple Moon Ore to produce one pound of Purple Moon Gold. It is an important material for the early production of mechas and spacecraft hulls
The current task completion progress is 0.1/100, please continue to work hard
The blazing fire circled around the two white tiger mechs, occasionally striking their armored bodies with mechanical arms, unsure of how to deal with these two white tigers after a while
At the moment when the outer shield of the white tiger mecha was shattered by the electronic pulse cannon, the two operators were stunned by low-frequency sound waves, leaving the mecha unmanned. Although the white tiger mecha was equipped with an intelligence core, the low-end core was clearly unable to autonomously activate the mecha, remaining motionless and obediently awaiting the favor of Qiu Ci
Foodie
The cold, mechanical voice of the system sounded again, startling Qiu Ci, who still wore a look of shock.
Upon looking around, Qiu Ci discovered that it was a robot with only half of its body left that had triggered the alarm in a chaotic manner. Qiu Ci smiled nonchalantly, and a ray shot out, destroying the damaged robot. It was too noisy; she wanted it to be quieter
The enemy army is besieging in countless layers, yet I remain steadfast and unmoving! The two white tigers exude an air of mastery, their electronic eyes flickering with a faint red light as if mocking the enemies before them, wondering what they can do to me
The intelligent core within the white armored vehicle was calculating frantically, as data poured down like water on the virtual screen in front of the control panel. The electronic synthesized voice emitted a hollow, piercing sound: "Orange alert, the shell has been compromised, metal is being decomposed and absorbed, danger, extreme danger"
So you are all here, just stay there obediently, I have come to find you. Qiu Ci's smiling face shone with excitement as she maneuvered the flowing fire towards the location of the two white tiger mechas, her heart unable to contain a bit of exhilaration, devour, oh devour, white tiger mechas, although you are indeed a bit outdated, after all, you are still mechas, please do not let me down!
The imposing and heavy figure of the blazing fire stood in the center of the base, turning in place. Its fiery red electronic eyes scanned the surroundings, while the virtual screen of the light brain in front of Qiu Ci displayed a three-dimensional structural diagram of the base. The screen stabilized, revealing the images of two white tiger mechas formed by lines and grids.
