Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 736 - 371: The Past of Galaxy Battle Armor_2
However, its master wasn’t so lucky; over a thousand years, two or three had already died.
The Galaxy Battle Armor was not saddened by the death of its masters. At this moment, it did not have such meaningless emotions; it was natural for warriors to die on the battlefield.
The master died, but the armor remained intact, which was normal and not because the Galaxy Battle Armor harmed its master.
Because the Galaxy Battle Armor was a "fine product" with Nine-Star strength.
But its masters did not have such strength; they were mostly Seven-Star recruits.
These recruits weren’t very strong, but because of the armor, they often participated in Nine-Star level battles.
In such battles, facing some strong attacks, the Galaxy Battle Armor might only be heavily injured, but its master, when the armor was shattered, would die with just a slight hit.
Participating in high-level battles with external help, such an outcome was normal.
Of course, there were benefits too.
If its master survived, under the stimulation of the Nine-Star Battle Armor and fierce battles, their promotion speed would be much faster than ordinary Seven-Star recruits.
Unfortunately, those several masters of the Galaxy Battle Armor did not have such luck.
After another master died, the regiment soon chose another master for it to continue fighting.
After a selection process, a new master was born.
This new master was also a recruit who had just undergone conscription, training, transformation, debugging, adaptation, etc. on a planet owned by the Empire, successfully advancing to Seven Stars, qualifying to wear the Battle Armor.
Of course, this was merely a qualification. To wear the Galaxy Battle Armor, there was one more ceremony: a death match!
Yes, just like the death match between Su Yu and the Galaxy Battle Armor before, the recruits of the regiment also had to have a death match to wear the armor!
However, the recruit was only Seven Stars, while the armor was Nine Stars, and directly fighting surely couldn’t win.
Therefore, the Galaxy Battle Armor had its strength limited to only use Seven-Star level power for equal-level combat.
That recruit was extraordinarily outstanding and actually defeated the Galaxy Battle Armor with millennia of combat experience at the same level!
The Galaxy Battle Armor was not surprised by this result.
After all, it was just an assembly line "product," while the Galaxy Warrior was a carefully selected Empire Soldier, a true elite of the Empire.
The Empire is the Empire of humanity, unwilling to let the weak armor strong situation exist.
At least at the same level, humans must be stronger than the Mechanical Battle Armor!
However, if humans are strong and armor is weak, then the armor seems to have little significance.
So, the recruits of the regiment usually wear battle armor one or two star levels higher than themselves.
And because the Galaxy Battle Armor was a fine product, it was two star levels higher than its master.
After the recruit wore the Galaxy Battle Armor, they harmonized for decades, and both were quite satisfied with each other.
The Galaxy Battle Armor also silently calculated in its heart, hoping that this master wouldn’t die so quickly.
At this time, the regiment where the Galaxy Battle Armor was located received a mission, which was to investigate a frontier planet 60,000 light-years away: Azure Star.
That planet had lost contact with the Empire, with no signals returned for a hundred years.
The Empire suspected it encountered a rebellion and sent the regiment where the Galaxy Battle Armor was to suppress and quell the rebellion.
The Empire’s territory was vast, with over a million life planets. Occasionally, someone would think the Emperor was far away and rebel, wanting to become king, which was common.
But these rebels couldn’t escape the Empire’s suppression.
"Rebellion?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yu frowned.
There seemed to be something strange in the Galaxy Battle Armor’s narrative, somewhat different from what he knew before.
However, Su Yu did not interrupt but continued listening.
The Galaxy Battle Armor did not notice Su Yu’s peculiarity and continued narrating its mission to quell the rebellion.
After this mission ended, the Galaxy Battle Armor should have accumulated enough merits to be reforged and promoted.
Although it was battle armor, it was part of the Empire, enjoying certain status, various benefits, responsibilities, and even vacations. But to be promoted, it also needed enough merits to apply.
If it got promoted, the current master would no longer qualify to wear it.
However, its master fully supported it, encouraging it to proceed without hesitation.
The Galaxy Battle Armor naturally paid great attention to this mission, hoping to complete it smoothly, accumulate merits, and apply for promotion.
But its attention level didn’t actually matter much.
Because leading the team wasn’t it, but the Commander of the Betrayal Legion, someone of the Fifth Rank!
The Galaxy Battle Armor was merely a small soldier among them.
It was said that the frontier Azure Star was overseen by a prominent figure of the Fifth Rank.
That figure was extremely powerful; if they betrayed, no ordinary Empire Legion could suppress them, so this time it was the entire Seventh Legion of the Galaxy Warriors "Betrayal Legion," a full-force attack.
Several legions were even on standby for support!
Soon, the Galaxy Battle Armor and its companions boarded a battleship, flying towards that frontier planet.
The Empire’s legion battleships all navigated in subspace, extremely fast, reaching 60,000 light-years in just a few months.
However, this time, something was odd.
Because the battleship navigated for five full years without arrival!
During navigation, to save energy and avoid attracting subspace creatures’ attention, the Galaxy Battle Armor and its companions were in a semi-shutdown state.
The masters within the armor also voluntarily entered hibernation.
Normally, upon arrival, the battleship would awaken them.
But this time, they slept for five full years without arrival, and ultimately woke up naturally.
They naturally awoke at intervals in absence of danger during their hibernation and sleep, to prevent falling asleep indefinitely.
Upon waking, the Galaxy Battle Armor astonishingly found that inside the entire battleship, there was only their squad.
Including the Fourth Rank captain, there were only seventeen people and seventeen suits of armor.
Besides this, the whole battleship was empty, without any other presence.
They urgently searched the entire battleship without any clues.
The entire Betrayal Legion, over 3,000 Galaxy Warriors, each at least Seven-Star warriors, wearing at least Eight-Star armor.
Plus over a hundred Fourth Rank captains, and a Fifth Rank Commander...
What a powerful force this was!
And yet silently, such a powerful force vanished!
At this time, the battleship still traveled within subspace, moving forward.
But without a "Navigator," no one knew in which direction the battleship headed.
The captain, an experienced veteran, immediately activated all the battleship’s weapon systems and entered an emergency alert state.
He suspected that some mysterious presence in subspace attacked the battleship, leading to their disappearance.
Or perhaps, that prominent figure on Azure Star who betrayed the Empire discovered them, thus launching some conspiracy midway.
But without evidence, everything was mere speculation.
The captain tried using the battleship’s emergency call system to contact the Empire, but there was no response.
The entire channel was dead silent, as if the Empire no longer existed.
Facing this situation, although the Galaxy Battle Armor lacked a sense of terror, it still felt slightly uneasy.
After discussing briefly with other members, the captain decided to activate the battleship’s material engine to break out from subspace and return to the Material Universe to find where they exactly were.
Soon, the material engine activated, subspace was broken open, and the battleship returned to the Material Universe.
A beautiful azure planet appeared in everyone’s sight.
Azure Star! After returning to the Material Universe, they directly appeared on Azure Star’s orbit.
Had they been drifting in subspace near Azure Star for years during that time?
Were those fleet members attacked by that prominent figure named Zhang Chenfeng?
This squad of Galaxy Warriors, facing such a situation, all wore grave expressions.
However, before they figured out how to proceed, a communication signal came through from the space station above Azure Star.
Signal source: Giant God Soldiers Commander, Zhang Chenfeng!
