    <h4>Chapter 361: Spar</h4>


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>As Studios <strong>Editor: </strong>As Studios


    While Herlous was having a good time shing left and right, the enemies suddenly disappeared, and Han Xiao opened the door and walked in. Herlous asked, “Why are you here?”


    Han Xiaoughed and said, “It’s boring to train alone. Come, let’s spar.”


    After reaching grade B, he had yet to get intobat, and he was itching for a go. He was a noble man and would not bully the yers for nothing; plus, Herlous happened to be a senior grade B. It would only be meaningful to spar with aparable opponent, and it was suitable for him to better understand what his actual strength was.


    He could only find trouble... <i>cough </i>, take action confidentially if he had a clear idea.


    “Spar?” Herlous only had one thought in his mind. <i>With you?</i>


    The grade of Supers was different from cup sizes. The difference between C and B was extremely vast—they were on apletely different level. The fight would be one-sided, and it could only be called a ‘spar’ if the parties hadparable strength.


    Herlous was not really willing; he was so strong that he might hurt Han Xiao easily if they fought.


    However, he felt that this act of Han Xiao’s was like the other members of the mercenary group—it should be called ‘asking for advice. Herlous suddenly understood. So, that’s what he means... the captain wants some pointers.


    “No problem, do you want to make any preparations?” Herlous kindly epted it. He was happy to tutor hisrades. Plus, Han Xiao’s safety was very important to him—making Han Xiao stronger would mean he could worry lesser.


    Han Xiao was not shy at all. He told Herlous to wait for a while, then moved boxes of machines in. He wanted to test all the weapons as a form of respect for an opponent so willing to help.


    Originally, Herlous was very calm, but as he saw more and more boxes entering the room, his face started to twitch. When Han Xiao carried a colossal Electromaic Rail Cannon prototype in, he uncontrobly took in a breath of cold air and yelled, “Oi! That’s enough!”


    With Herlous’ objection, Han Xiao had to give up testing the damage resistance limit of a grade B Pugilist. He put on his Amphiptere mechanical suit and warmed up his body.


    Meleebat was a Pugilists’ specialty, and since the space in the simtion room was limited, it was disadvantageous for Han Xiao. Hence, he stood a certain distance away before starting the fight. “Are you ready?”


    “Come.” Herlous was very calm; fighting an opponent one grade lower needed no preparation.


    Right as Herlous finished his sentence, Han Xiao flipped his hands. Two Electromaic Handguns slipped out from his leg armor, and he fired rapidly with Moving Snipe. The muzzle was shing with blue electric light, and the sound was different from gunpowder weapons—it was a high-frequency buzz with the sound of electric flow. Needle bullets bolted toward Herlous, dragging a faint blue light behind.


    His Battleship Slicing de rose up in time, blocking in front of Herlous like a shield, making nks from the collisions. Following which, Herlous’ expression changed a little. “Electromaic firearms?”


    The Mechanic’s core ability was to build machinery forbat, and being able to build electromaic weapons meant that the attack power was on a new level. Electromaic guns had a high fire rate, so he almost could not react to it. Herlous has to take it seriously—although he had energy protection, his body was not some easily receable equipment, so he was totally not interested in getting focus fired.


    Herlous did not know much about Mechanics, but he knew that only higher-grade mechanics could build weapons with higher technology. Naturally, he was a little confused—could grade C mechanics build stable electromaic firearms?


    Herlous closed in with his de in his hand, rushing faster than a sports car. Closing the distance, Han Xiao’s feet slid as he moved back, maintaining the distance. There were many firearms hidden under his armor—a handgun, assault rifle, and sniper—that had all been changed into electromaic versions with higher damage.


    Herlous was a well-deserved grade B. His reaction speed was extremely fast, and the wide Battleship Slicing de was suitable for blocking. Han Xiao fired hundreds of times, but less than five percent hit. Furthermore, the damage of those hits wasrgely reduced by the Pugilist’s energy coating and strong physic, only dealing skin damage.


    Having dealt some damage, Han Xiao saw Herlous’ data panel.


    “LV 98, grade B Pugilist, high in both strength and endurance, semi tank, quite a lot of talents, almost as many as me, and all with very strong effects... Damn, this guy has Basic Luck Glow, too.”


    Han Xiao was so jealous. ording to Herlous’ self-description, he had been veryzy since he was young—he had extraordinary talent but never trained hard. Then, he abandonedbat for more than ten years, yet he still reached grade B. Maybe this was what a genius was like...


    Han Xiao could not help but think, <i>If Herlous did not die like in the original storyline, he might have achieved grade A in the end.</i>


    <i>This is one hell of a recruit.</i>


    As he became stronger, Han Xiao’s mind became faster; even thinking of something else duringbat would not distract him.


    At this time, Herlous suddenly stopped chasing. His silver mes expanded, then contracted, condensed between his palms, and became a blinding silver-white light.


    Boom!


    Veins appeared on Herlous’ face, looking very exhausted. Then, with a growl, he pushed his palms forward. The light shot out as energy flew out from his palms continuously. A blinding silver white beam shot out like a furious growling dragon, the light filling Han Xiao’s vision.


    Han Xiao ced his arms in front of him, and the next moment, the beam collided with his arms, sending him flying and bashing onto the wall. The beam devoured the outline of his body.


    As long as Pugilists learned [Shockwave st], they would be able to shoot beams—this was one of the abilities in a Pugilist’s ability Technique Tree, just like the Mechanic’s Knowledge Tree. Compressing energy into a sphere, its power depended on the energy level, the w was that it required a lot of energy to use.


    Beams had different varieties, andpared to grade C, the beam of grade B was clearly thicker and longersting. Even though Herlous reduced the energy output because he was worried about shooting through the wall of the simtion room, the increased damage in the entire ces clearly disyed the power of this hit.


    “That should be enough... wait, why did I use this?”


    Herlous was shocked. His original intention was to tutor, but because he felt a bit threatened during the battle, he subconsciously took Han Xiao as a strong enemy and used a strong attack. He suddenly deeply regretted using such a move—such an energy beam could even hurt grade C Pugilists, not to mention Mechanics.


    He was about to stop the energy output, but at that moment, a sh of arc-shaped lightning expanded from within the beam and shed it open!


    Han Xiao jumped high up into the air, with a ferocious ck scythe in his hand, and descended from the sky, shing down!


    Herlous immediately raised his de to block. The scythe crashed down on the Battleship Slicing de and caused sparks like a thunderstorm. The friction between metal mixed with the sound of electric currents. He stepped back and dodged, then he saw Han Xiao, who was on the ground. Many parts of his mechanical suit had be red hot, and his whole body was covered in white steam from the high temperature. The energy reaction level was shocking.


    Han Xiao twisted his neck and said jokingly, “That was close, almost couldn’t take it.”


    Although that was what he said, his tone was casual and calm, filled with confidence, totally not sounding like he was hurt at all.


    Herlous’ eyes widened. Someone who could tank a beam undamaged and give out this feeling was absolutely not just grade C.


    “You’re a grade B Super?” Herlous was stunned. <i>You were not this strong back in Sunil!</i>


    Han Xiao shrugged. “I’ve improved.”


    <i>How many days had passed? And you’ve already advanced a grade! Are you more genius than me? </i>Herlous was shocked. He had always known that he was very talented. Although he was not proud of it, when he saw a Super that was even more ‘genius’ than him, he did not feel very good and had very mixed feelings.


    “Don’t stop, we’re not done fighting.” Han Xiao reached out his arm and grabbed the air toward the location of an equipment box on the other side. The mechanical suit arm and the box had a maic connection, so the summoned item flew over.


    In midair, the box opened automatically, and the exoskeleton armor bounced out, hovered over quickly ording to the position of the maic connection, then covered Amphiptere, turning into the [Siege Mode] like a small giant in the blink of an eye.


    There was another benefit to Advanced Electromaism—it could make equipmentbine automatically through adjusting the maism of different parts, increasing the speed of equipping different armor.


    Feeling the energy reaction that made his heart retract, Herlous became focused. He adjusted his attitude, and the thought of tutoring was forgotten. “You’re right. Our battle deserves to be called a spar!”
