"Bang! Bang!"
A massive arc of sparks erupted, resembling thunder in the sky, illuminating the minds of all the Target Students. No Mechanical Life showed any signs of fear; it was simply that the barbs on the whip were not fierce enough.
In the mechanical plaza of Area E7, the air was filled with this shocking sound, and aside from that, there was complete silence. A large number of Ninth Training Base Target Students either stood in the plaza or focused intently on the live broadcast from the Main Forum. No one wanted to miss this legendary moment in history.
Indeed, this was something that had never happened in the thousands of years since the Ninth Training Base was established. An e-Class Target Student had actually brought an e7 elite Target Student to the brink of death. Even more astonishing was that this e7 elite Target Student was accompanied by two powerful Mechanical Knight Retainers, each capable of ranking among the top three combatants in the Ninth Training Base.
In such a situation, to be forcefully defeated by a Target Student was an utter disgrace!
What made it even more humiliating was being publicly punished with a whipping in front of so many witnesses. For someone as proud as Alder, it felt worse than death.
"Sizzle!"
Hundreds and thousands of blue-purple arcs spread across the massive Mechanical Body, rippling like water splashes. It looked magnificent, but for Lin Yuan and his companions who were enduring this punishment, it was excruciating.
Because the whip was not wielded by a Mechanical Warrior, but by a terrifying machine specifically designed for punishment, known as the Plasma Impactor. This device could generate massive Beta Plasma Particle beams through high-speed energy accumulation and mutation—far more formidable than ordinary electrons.
The energy contained in a single Beta Plasma Particle was not high, roughly equivalent to 0.1 units of Centrifugal Stone Energy. However, this energy was extremely unstable; from generation to decay, it lasted at most 0.5 seconds before rapidly fissioning and disappearing like a fleeting flower. Yet during those 0.5 seconds, the Beta Plasma Particle was highly aggressive and destructive, lethal to most materials in the universe.
Moreover, this aggression and destruction knew no bounds regarding race or nature; it was a broad-spectrum destroyer. Simply put, if an Earthling came into contact with a Beta Plasma Particle for just 0.00001 seconds, they would be reduced to nothing but a shell—muscles, blood, bones—all turned into plasma liquid. Similarly, if a stone were thrown at it, it would also be obliterated in an instant. Even a powerful Mechanical Warrior would have to flee upon encountering such a thing unless equipped with similar protective devices.
Thus, it was no surprise that this device became one of the most notorious forms of punishment within Mechanical Warrior society.
At this moment, Lin Yuan and his companions were enduring the relentless strikes of the Beta Plasma Particles, millions of them being ejected by the Plasma Impactor. It was as if a laser was carving pockmarks into their sturdy Mechanical Bodies, which could withstand even the most powerful Energy Cannons.
However, the damage to their Mechanical Bodies was not the worst part. The real horror lay in how the Beta Plasma Particles would severely stimulate the Civic Induction Transmission circuitry. In other words, it was a direct assault on their neural Systems. Despite Lin Yuan and his friends' strong willpower, after just a few lashes, they found themselves trembling uncontrollably, shivering in distress.
Finally, as a necessary punishment for causing a disturbance and creating a serious negative impact, each of them received twenty electric lashes. They managed to endure it, but this was far from the end. The three of them were bound like lab rats by an intangible energy rope, suspended in mid-air. At that moment, even Alder, who had previously exuded strength and confidence, appeared deflated.
Soon after, massive void screens began to materialize in the space behind the mechanical square, drawing gasps of astonishment from many Target Students present. The atmosphere in the Main Forum became lively as well; the appearance of these screens indicated that instructors from the entire Ninth Training Base would soon appear to evaluate and discuss the severe nature of this incident and determine the final punishment.
In less than a few minutes, three hundred twenty-nine enormous void screens filled the space behind the mechanical square, displaying all the instructors from the Ninth Training Base, ranging from e1 to e7 levels.
The arrival of these instructors undoubtedly overshadowed Lin Yuan and his companions. Even e7 level Target Students might not have had the chance to meet every instructor over the past century. However, those qualified to be instructors at the Elite Training Base were undoubtedly exceptional individuals; knowing more of them would naturally bring more benefits.
Lin Yuan felt both surprised and uneasy. He had initially thought he would merely be confined like last time, but now it seemed much more serious! Was it possible that Octopus D had a deep background?
"This time, I can't save you," came a voice unexpectedly within his Intellect. It startled him greatly because this was his core Intellect essence—how could it be so easily breached? It felt like someone had kicked open a door while he was enjoying himself and shouted, 'Police! Don't move!'
"Is it you?" Lin Yuan's surprise quickly faded as he recognized that the entity appearing in his mind was none other than Snow Wind—specifically, Claire's more mature persona.
"Of course it's me. At this moment, there's no one else who can pity you besides me. But you still haven't answered my question: why did you choose to come back?"
Snow Wind transformed directly into Claire's mature form in Lin Yuan's mind—charming and alluring—but Lin Yuan had no time to appreciate her beauty. He could only manage a wry smile as he replied, "If I had a choice, I definitely wouldn't have chosen to come back. The problem is that I didn't have any room for choice; it seems like fate just pushed me back here."
"Fate? Are you kidding me?" The mature Claire seemed to explode with anger. "If you hadn't shouted out 'rebels' like a lunatic, would things have gotten this bad? Are you really so stupid that you don't understand the serious consequences of shouting that in Mechanical City? Where did your intelligence go? How could you make such a ridiculous mistake, like something out of Swamp Alien?"
"Uh—" Lin Yuan felt quite displeased by this sudden outburst. However, after Snow Wind's reminder, he realized that this situation was indeed strange. Why had he felt the need to shout like that, and so loudly at that? It was as if he had suddenly lost control!
