Invincible through Touching Corpses

Chapter 355: Legendary Level Mecha

Hearing that the other party actually wanted to make a deal, Lin Xinghai finally showed a glimmer of interest. "So, what kind of deal do you have in mind?"

"Let me ask you something first. You’re pretty strong, right?" Ye Xin asked, not immediately explaining how they could cooperate.

"Yeah," Lin Xinghai nodded.

"Then how about this? Let me join your team. If you can help me achieve an outstanding score, I’ll have a custom-made Rare Level Mecha built for you. What do you say?" Ye Xin proposed his offer.

"A Rare Level Mecha... you mean the kind piloted by Body Shaping Realm experts? Can you really provide a Mecha of that level?" Lin Xinghai’s eyes immediately lit up as he asked eagerly.

After getting to know Zhang Yue, Lin Xinghai had heard him mention that the military’s Type-I combat mecha was, in fact, just an ordinary Standard Mecha.

Even with modifications, it couldn’t escape the category of a Standard Mecha.

However, a step above Standard Mechas were Rare Level Mechas.

These mechas were said to be forged from a sturdier Biological Alloy. However, this Biological Alloy was incredibly rare, so Rare Level Mechas couldn’t be mass-produced; nearly every one was custom-built.

In their Star Shield Shelter, only General Lin Zhengyang possessed a Rare Level Mecha; even Wei Tianxing didn’t have one.

This alone showed just how rare and precious these mechas were.

"Don’t worry. My family’s business specializes in manufacturing mechas. We can manage to produce one Rare Level Mecha."

Ye Xin paused, then continued, "But I need to be clear upfront. When I say an outstanding score, I mean one that will make me a First Class Student."

"Of course, if that’s not possible, I’m willing to give you a perfectly modified Standard Mecha even if I only become a Second Class Student."

Hearing this, Lin Xinghai turned to Jin Tong and asked, "What kind of score is needed to become a First Class Student?"

"First Class Students are the top 100; Second Class Students are the top 1,000."

After answering, Jin Tong added, "His strength is likely just average. That’s going to put a lot of pressure on you."

Jin Tong didn’t want Lin Xinghai to accept the offer.

In his opinion, he would be thanking the heavens if Lin Xinghai could just carry him into the top 2,000 to secure an admission spot.

If they added another burden to the team now, he felt that whether they could even get into East Sea Academy would become a serious question.

"Is that so..." Lin Xinghai stroked his chin, looking thoughtful.

This made Ye Xin a bit nervous, worried that Lin Xinghai would reject him outright.

In the next moment, however, he heard a reply that left him dumbfounded.

"If I get you into the top 10 and make you a Special Class Student, what kind of reward could you offer me then?" Lin Xinghai inquired.

Ye Xin was stunned for a long moment before he snapped out of it. He felt like Lin Xinghai was just bluffing.

However, over the years, under his father’s constant influence, he had honed the skill of reading people to perfection.

He could tell from Lin Xinghai’s eyes, expression, and even his subtle body language that the other man was being completely serious when he asked that question, not just toying with him.

In that case, either the guy was a megalomaniac with absolutely no grasp of his own abilities...

...or he had real skill, the kind that could overwhelm other top-tier geniuses.

It wasn’t hard to figure out which kind of person he was. Ye Xin recalled the Battle Armor Lin Xinghai had produced, and those 5 million Huaxia Coins.

Instantly, the Little Fatty’s breathing grew heavy.

"If you can really make me a Special Class Student, I can give you a Legendary Level Mecha—the kind used exclusively by Divine Demon Realm experts. Consider it a token of our new friendship."

Worried that Lin Xinghai didn’t understand just how precious a Legendary Level Mecha was, Ye Xin quickly added, "As for Legendary Level Mechas, only about half of all Divine Demon Realm experts are even equipped with one."

That’s right. A Mecha of this caliber was incredibly difficult to obtain, even for experts in the Divine Demon Realm.

The value of such a mecha completely overshadowed a single spot as a Special Class Student, but Ye Xin was still willing to offer it.

This was because getting into the top 10 to become a Special Class Student yourself and helping someone *else* achieve the same thing were two entirely different concepts.

The latter was more than ten times more difficult than the former.

If Lin Xinghai could really pull it off, Ye Xin wouldn’t mind at all using such a mecha to befriend a future top-tier expert.

After all, according to past data, every single Special Class Student had a 100% probability of breaking through to the Body Shaping Realm and a 30% probability of reaching the Divine Demon Realm.

If Lin Xinghai had the ability to help him become a Special Class Student while securing a spot for himself, then with that level of strength, breaking through to the Divine Demon Realm was practically a certainty.

He might even become one of the top experts within the Divine Demon Realm.

Hearing Ye Xin’s words, Lin Xinghai’s eyes shone. "Alright, it’s a deal."

The group then moved to a corner of the plaza, making small talk as they waited.

Since they were going to cooperate, they naturally needed to learn more about each other.

Lin Xinghai soon learned that Ye Xin also had a B Level Genetic Assessment and had awakened a Rare Level Wind Superpower: Hurricane Tornado.

’That level of strength really is just so-so.’

Of course, Ye Xin also asked about Lin Xinghai’s strength. Not wanting to disappoint his new partner, Lin Xinghai didn’t reveal too much, only stating that he possessed a Speed-type Superpower and that his Speed was, without a doubt, the fastest among everyone there.

"A Speed-type Superpower?" Ye Xin’s face was a mess of conflicting emotions upon hearing this.

’Can a Superpower like that really be that strong? At least, I’ve never heard of one that is.’

To reassure his new partner, Lin Xinghai quickly shared some information about Liu Miaomiao.

When they heard that Liu Miaomiao was an A Level Genetic Assessor whose Rare Superpower had undergone two awakenings, and that she also possessed a Special Physique, it wasn’t just Ye Xin—even Jin Tong was left speechless.

Jin Tong had always thought that Liu Miaomiao was just pretty, and that her strength, like his, made her a liability.

But he had never imagined that she was the real powerhouse of the group.

And the worst part was, his second uncle had never even mentioned how powerful Liu Miaomiao was.

"Brother Lin, impressive," Ye Xin said with genuine admiration after snapping out of his daze.

With her level of talent, combined with such breathtaking beauty, Liu Miaomiao was truly one of heaven’s chosen daughters.

Normally, a person like her would be the center of attention wherever she went, with everyone else revolving around her like stars around the moon.

Yet, she was willing to stand quietly behind Lin Xinghai. How could he not be filled with admiration?

At the same time, any doubts he had about Lin Xinghai’s strength vanished. One could only imagine how exceptional a person must be to earn the devotion of one of heaven’s chosen daughters.

Time gradually passed, and half an hour later, the registration period was over.

Lin Xinghai scanned the plaza one more time. By now, with the inclusion of the latecomers, the total number of people had exceeded 30,000.

Out of 30,000 people, only 2,000 would be admitted. It had to be said that this year’s competition was bound to be fiercer than ever before.
