342: Chapter 342 Don’t Be Angry (Second Update) 342: Chapter 342 Don’t Be Angry (Second Update) Putmi was at a loss for words as well, lamenting their string of bad luck.

“Who knew such an unexpected event would happen, we were just concerned about the safety of our rear.”

As the two were arguing, suddenly Zhang Wei dragged his weary body out from under the miniature exit of the sealed box, and said to them, “Stop arguing, the calibration is done.”

Hearing Zhang Wei’s words, Li Ruiqi and Putmi excitedly asked.

“Really?”

“Of course, it’s true.

You can confirm the driver now.”

Li Wei confidently replied.

“Immediately go and inform the President…”

….

At that moment, on a slightly elevated hill, President Long Ming and other presidents were standing there, holding optical telescopes and looking towards the distant Praying Dragon City.

The more they observed, the more headaches they got.

“To be honest, according to our plans, we should have been inside Praying Dragon City by now, right?”

Long Ming said somewhat self-deprecatingly.

“You’re right, but in the end, we’ve become like homeless dogs that have fled here.

I thought we could just stand by and watch the show, easily reaping the rewards, but it turns out these younger generations are just not reliable at all!”

Augustus criticized mercilessly.

“In the end, it’s up to us old bones, really painful.”

Long Ming rarely agreed with Augustus.

Just then, a burst of urgent footsteps approached, followed by a group of young NCOs gathering around.

Leading them were two people, one a middle-aged man with golden hair, a calm face, sharp eyes, full of arrogance, and muscles brimming with explosive power.

He was the strongest Mecha Driver from the Freedom Victory Guild, Shiris.

On the other side was a young man in the third generation of Mechanical Armor, average in appearance, standing with indifferent hands behind his back, his posture extremely upright, exuding a sense of toughness like an iceberg.

This person was the strongest Mecha Driver from the Sky Dragon Guild, Wang Hai.

They were there for a straightforward reason, to compete for the right to use the new weapon.

At that moment, the Orderly Officer stepped forward, respectfully reporting to Long Ming and Augustus.

“President Long Ming, President Augustus, the weapon has been calibrated.

It’s now up to you to decide who will be the driver, as both sides have their recommended candidates ready.”

“Sky Dragon Guild’s first Mecha team leader Wang Hai reporting!”

“Freedom Victory Guild’s ace, first Mecha team leader, Shiris, reporting!”

Both men stepped forward, each giving a salute and reporting.

After listening, Long Ming, with a full-faced smile, said to Augustus.

“Brother Augustus, your overflowing talent is well recognized by all of us.

Moreover, your coordination and cohesion skills are something I truly admire.

Please, take the lead on this.”

Upon hearing this, Augustus’s smile broadened, and he clapped Long Ming on the shoulder, saying.

“Brother Long Ming, you’re flattering me too much.

You know your talent is not at all inferior to mine, and in fact, your strength far surpasses mine, I sincerely admit defeat.

This matter should rightfully be yours, you should also show your capabilities.

It will make people even more convinced when coordinating in the future.”

“Brother Augustus, you can’t say that, I’m nowhere near your level.”

…

The two began flattering each other in a very peculiar manner, almost to the point of exalting one another to the skies.

The subordinates standing by were all bewildered, what was going on?

Shouldn’t they be competing?

On the side, the Heavenly Light President could hardly stand it anymore, he said, “Presidents, please no more deferring, we’re almost out of time.”

At that moment, Long Ming turned his head and chuckled, “Fujiwara Tani, why don’t you come?”

Upon hearing Long Ming’s words, Fujiwara Tani was so scared that he quickly took two steps back and waved his hands hurriedly, “I’m just giving a reminder.

You continue, continue…”

Augustus said with a chuckle, “Long Ming, stop shirking your responsibility.

You ought to set an example.”

“Cough cough.

Brother Augustus, I think this, if we keep this up it’s no solution.

How about we settle this with a game of rock-paper-scissors?

One round to determine the winner.”

Long Ming cursed inwardly, calling him an old fox who just wouldn’t take the bait.

“Alright!”

Augustus thought for a moment and then said.

So, the two faced each other, as if gearing up for a major battle, and both made ready to throw their hands.

Standing beside them, Shiris and Wang Hai’s facial muscles twitched, and if not for the military discipline, they would have volunteered proactively by now.

There wouldn’t be such trouble of pushing one another.

Long Ming deliberately revealed his fist, letting Augustus sneak a peek.

Augustus naturally saw the opening exposed by Long Ming and mentally commented.

“This old sly dog intentionally let me see his fist.

Normally, I should play paper and he would play scissors, but I definitely won’t fall for that, so I should play rock.”

But this guy is so cunning, it definitely wouldn’t be that simple, so there’s another round of changes.

“He should play paper, so what I really should play is scissors.”

Thinking this, Augustus played scissors without hesitation, only for Long Ming to stretch out a rock immediately.

Augustus looked at the rock Long Ming stretched out, his expression like someone with constipation, unable to speak a word for a long time, his old face turned utterly red.

Long Ming then burst into laughter and said, “Brother Augustus, you said I intentionally let you win, and yet you still lost.

You really can’t blame me for this, haha!”

“Hmph!”

Augustus snorted coldly, very annoyed.

Standing to one side, Wang Hai’s eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

The chairman had won the game of rock-paper-scissors, and now the control would fall into their opponent’s hands.

Shiris from the Freedom Victory Guild, however, showed an excited expression and shouted loudly.

“Chairman, Shiris is ready to go into battle.”

Augustus glanced at Shiris and snorted coldly, “What battle to go into?

I myself will go!”

At this comment, everyone at the scene, except for the guild chairmen, showed a shocked expression.

“That’s not right, chairman.”

Shiris quickly responded.

“What’s not right?

If you all were reliable, would we even need to step in?

How many weapons have been wasted in your hands?

Do you really want the last weapon to be wasted as well?

I’ll go myself, all of you watch carefully.”

Augustus grumbled angrily.

“Brother Augustus, don’t be angry.

We need to maintain a good mentality.

This is a very crucial fight, and we can’t afford a single mishap.”

Long Ming’s face was almost splitting with a grin.

“Hmph!”

Augustus, like a child holding a grudge, walked away, and the members of the Freedom Victory Guild hurriedly followed him.

Wang Hai, somewhat puzzled, asked, “Chairman, why does Chairman Augustus have to go personally, and why so reluctantly?”

“Because your abilities aren’t enough.

And do you really think that’s a cushy job?

The real power in this world has a price, and the price for piloting that weapon is life.”

Long Ming said with profound eyes, Who would think their life too long?
