WHOOSH!
I wasted no time exerting all of my energy in an attempt to dissolve the white mecha core and pull its energy particles towards me. However, I had not expected the white mecha core to be so, very, very dense.
I had absorbed eight blue cores by that point, and I had no problems at all dissolving and sucking in all those delicious blue core particles. Dissolving those blue mecha cores was like crushing a chicken egg. Just a surge of energy and CRACK! It's crushed.
Pulling the blue core particles was effortless too. Sure, I could feel the weight of the particles, but it was well within my power and ability to draw them quickly across the distance and absorb it into my body. It was like dragging an empty wheelbarrow on a smooth road. Easy.
However in comparison, the white mecha core was like a tough, giant ostrich egg covered with a thick layer of squishy goo which resisted my best efforts to crush it!
"What are you doing?" Emma shouted from beside me. "Start absorbing the white mecha!"
I gritted my teeth and tuned her out. It was definitely not the right time to get into a shouting match with her.
I took a deep breath and sent more energy to surround the white mecha core. And then with everything that I had, I forced the red energy to crush the white mecha core!
NGGGGGGHHHH!!!
Nothing happened!
"Damn it!" I shouted in exasperation.
"What's going on?" Emma asked.
"The white mecha core is too tough for me to crush! I can't dissolve it!" I cried out.
"Crush? If brute force doesn't work, then try to slice it into pieces instead! Or drill a hole into it?" Emma suggested.
"My God, Emma you're a genius!" My eyes almost popped out as I mentally face palmed myself for not thinking of such a simple idea. I quickly adjusted my red energy into a sharp, spinning drill and sent it smashing into the white mecha core.
After a second, it began to pierce through the gooey exterior and into the white mecha core!
"YES! IT'S WORKING!" I cried out excitedly.
"Get closer!" Emma urged me. "Get the absorption done as quickly as you can before the others come!"
"On my way!" I quickly made my way to the white mecha.
"GAHH! WHY WOULDN'T IT POWER UP! STUPID MECHA!!!" BAM! BAM! BAM!
I could hear Amelia Dragonos cursing the white mecha and venting her frustrations by punching and kicking her cockpit.
"Hehehe. Don't worry, Amelia, very soon, you won't have to put up with your 'stupid' white mecha anymore." I sniggered as I placed my hand on the white mecha's giant foot.
Once I placed my hand on the foot though, I realized one thing. Physical touch causes the resonance I have with the white mecha to shoot through the roof!
All of a sudden, I felt like I had much more leverage against the white mecha.
Previously, my resonance with the white mecha core was rather tenuous, as though I was connecting with it via several proxies. It felt like I was watching it through a camera screen which was pointed towards another camera screen which was pointed towards yet another camera screen which was pointing at the white mecha.
But with physical touch, it felt like I was watching the white mecha with my own eyes. The resonance I felt with it was very real, and very strong. And with the increased resonance, the red energy seemed to strengthen drastically in power.
And not only that, the gooey layer around the white mecha disappeared as well!
CRACK!!
The red energy drill immediately pierced through the white mecha core and caused it to split in half! And to make things even better, the physical contact also allowed me to inject far more red energy than before.
I quickly surrounded the white mecha core with my red energy once more. If I could crush it into particles, I would be able to absorb it much faster. At that moment, speed was the key.
"LET'S GO!" I shouted and contracted the red energy around the white mecha core with all my strength!
CRRRRRRACK!! POOF!
Success!!
The white mecha burst into a cloud of white particles. I immediately tried to pull it towards me.
NGHH! It was really heavy.
But thankfully, I had physical contact with the white mecha, so I was able to pull the white mecha particles slowly towards me.
"That's it. Come on!" I gritted my teeth and sent in the rest of my red energy to hasten the process of absorbing the white mecha core.
When the white mecha core finally entered my body, I gasped.
For the first time, I tasted power.
POWER!!
REAL POWER!!
I arched my head backwards and breathed in sharply.
Let me just say this, because well, I am the only one qualified to say it.
I am the number one human being in the world.
And that moment was the moment I ascended into that position.
Without mechas or external technology, just with physical bodies, I was the strongest human being in the world.
Oh yes.
Stronger than even those biological frankensteins the Russians made. What was their boast again? The physical strength of a thousand men? The acceleration and top speed of a race car?
Pfffft.
Ants.
I had within me EIGHT blue mecha cores, one WHITE mecha core and an experimental RED mecha core. I had enough energy within me to power an entire city for YEARS.
I could probably smash a hundred of those frankensteins with one hit.
But that was not all.
You see, the red mecha core had spent all the energy it had absorbed from the blue mecha core to strengthen and enhance my body, but it had largely left my brain untouched. At first I thought that it was just how it works. It strengthens my body, and allows me to generate mecha suits at will.
But it turned out that I was wrong.
The red mecha energy could enhance my brain too.
With the overflowing energy that it got from absorbing the white mecha core, it finally had enough to start its work on my brain.
