Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

In reality, only a god rank mecha could truly adjust itself to a Mecha Master. But what kind of existence was that? Every such mecha had its unique title and was only owned and operated by the strongest Mecha Masters. They were all trump cards of a space fleet and they were still far from that level.

It was precisely because they didn’t have the ability to survive in space that they were filled with dread towards space.

“Let’s go.” Xiao Qi brought everyone out of the spacecraft. A small team of Federation soldiers was already waiting outside.

The one in the lead was an officer with the rank of colonel. He was dressed in the standard silver uniform of the Federation and appeared to be in his thirties. He saluted Xiao Qi and Xiao Qi returned the salute.

“Hello, Teacher Xiao. Welcome to Resource Planet Number Four, everything is ready. Please follow me.” With that said, he made an inviting gesture and did not speak further.

Lan Xuanyu looked at those Federation soldiers curiously. They were all dressed in silver military uniforms with shining patterns on them. Those weren’t decorations but simplified soul arrays.

Lan Xuanyu had learned that this was a high-grade military uniform that only Federation soldiers who carried out interstellar missions wore. It had the ability to replenish one’s energy and could resist all sorts of harsh environments. With a simple face mask in addition, one could even carry out missions in space for a short period of time. It was a bleeding-edge technology now widely used. It was said that it was developed by the Tang Sect.

He had learned these because the ordinary soldiers of the space fleet used this uniform too.

Very soon, they were brought into a huge room. Rather than calling it a room, it would be more accurate to call it a warehouse. There were already some things prepared. They were metal backpacks that didn’t look big and were slightly bigger than ordinary backpacks. There were also a set of uniforms that were the same as those soldiers. On each uniform was a helmet.

Xiao Qi nodded. “Let’s begin.”

“Alright.” The colonel’s gaze landed on the first years led by Lan Xuanyu and he said in a deep voice, “Firstly, we welcome all of you to Resource Planet Number Four. As its name implies, this planet is mainly for the sake of obtaining resources for the Federation. This type of planet is unsuitable for living but has all sorts of rich deposits. It is an important resource to sustain the Federation’s rapid development. All of you will be completing a mission here. The mission is called: Exploration.”

“We have already completed our exploration of Resource Planet Number Four. The most unique characteristic of this planet is that it produces all sorts of rare metals. Different types of rare metals appear in different regions of the planet. And your exploration mission is to go to these regions to take a look. To prove that you have arrived at these places, you need to obtain at least one kilogram of rare metals from different regions and bring them back here. Each of you will have to obtain at least two types of rare metals, which is the goal of the test. If you can bring back more rare metals, your test grades will go up. What I mean by more metals, is the quantity and the diversity of the metals you bring back here. More variety will help improve your score.”

“After that, all of you will receive the necessary equipment to complete the mission. The military uniform is able to resist the harsh environment to a certain extent, but it has been stripped of its anti-gravity system. Therefore, all of you need to rely on your own abilities to resist the planet’s gravity. Here, the gravity is about twice that of the Mother Planet. At the same time, the oxygen inside the mask can sustain for about five Mother Planet days. All of you need to complete the mission within this period of time. The backpack has a place to store rare metals, and if it is overloaded, all of you will have to think of a new way. At the same time, the backpack has compressed food and water that will last you for five days. Please come forward to receive your supplies, the test will begin immediately.”

It was a simple mission introduction, but Lan Xuanyu listened attentively. From the colonel’s description, he knew that the test was to survive in harsh conditions and obtain rare metals. There weren’t any battles,they mainly had to adapt and survive in a harsh environment. Also, they were equipped with food and water. It didn’t seem to be difficult, but the more it was like this, the more cautious he became. He could tell from the way he landed and looked down from space that this planet’s environment was probably very bad.

“Additional point,” Xiao Qi said indifferently. “Different teams with different numbers have different criteria for obtaining basic test results. A team with two people and three people has to obtain at least three types of rare metals, which means they have to explore three areas. A team with four people and five people has to obtain four. And a team with six people and above has to obtain five types of rare metals.” When he said the last sentence, his gaze landed on Lan Xuanyu.

There was no doubt that obtaining five types of missions was set up for Lan Xuanyu’s team.

It sounded fair. Different soul masters had different abilities. In a team, the more soul masters there were, the more complementary their abilities would be and their ability to survive would naturally be stronger.

Furthermore, Lan Xuanyu’s team had a total of seven people, and with Tang Yuge joining, it didn’t seem like it would be too difficult for them. It was just an increase from four to five types.

Lan Xuanyu nodded at Xiao Qi, indicating that he understood.

Very soon, he received the uniform and changed into it. The silver-white uniform had the ability to adjust its size, and it fitted him very well. The helmet was the same as well. When he lowered the visor, it naturally formed a connection with the uniform. The internal oxygen circulation system turned on, and Lan Xuanyu immediately felt more clear-headed.

The uniform itself swelled slightly and looked tough and durable. This way, it could better resist the harsh environment.

For the first years, wearing uniforms gave them a novel feeling. This was their first time doing this, and it was also their first time carrying out a mission in outer space. Wasn’t it just gravity being a little stronger ? It should be fine.

“The map has already been transmitted to your soul communication device. You can check it once you leave the base. We will set off now. Remember, you only have five days. If you are picked up by the cleaning team, you will fail the test. Do you understand?”

“Understood.” The students shouted in unison.

“Let’s go.”

Under Xiao Qi and the colonel’s lead, they passed through the pathway and got into an orbital shuttle that was moving at high speed. This base was simply too big, and they were unable to differentiate their directions here.

Lan Xuanyu tried to check his soul communication device and found the map of Resource Planet Number Four. However, it was still locked and could not be checked yet. It was obvious that they had to go outside before they could conduct a check.

A quarter of an hour later, the shuttle stopped. They got off and passed through a corridor. A huge elevator appeared before them.

The elevator was big enough to accommodate all of them. A faint smile appeared on Xiao Qi’s face as he turned to the students behind him. “Don’t disappoint me. All of you are the best in my heart and I don’t want any of you to be eliminated. It’s time to test your hard work of the past semester. The last thing I can remind you is that caution is the foundation of everything. You must not be careless.”

Just as he was speaking, the elevator began to rise rapidly and everyone could feel a strong sense of oppression.

Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath. Without needing him to say anything, his teammates had already gathered around him, including Tang Yuge.

There were seven of them and they were tasked with the most difficult mission, exploring and retrieving five types of rare metals.

The sense of oppression weakened and the elevator finally stopped. A blurry passage was visible outside of the metal window.
