329: Chapter 213: Anti-gravity Car: Military All-Purpose Model 329: Chapter 213: Anti-gravity Car: Military All-Purpose Model âSwoosh!!â
Accompanied by a piercing whistling sound, 8 arrows shot out at lightning speed, burying themselves deeply into the wall.
Due to the distance, Zhang Xiaoman couldnât make out the specifics of the far-off scene, but the Star Guardsâ terrifying ability to shoot accurately from horseback at 700 meters still left him utterly amazed.
âThis move, if used well, is practically a sniper!â
His gaze shifted toward the knights still galloping on their horses, his face lighting up with joy.
Star Guards with ranged capabilities were on a completely different level compared to those without.
Afterward, Zhang Xiaoman summoned back his minions through his consciousness and conducted other tests, gaining a rough understanding of their combat capabilities.
Although calling the Star Guards now required a whopping 160 points of Dark Energy, making it the highest mana-consuming Skill,
fortunately, he had Magic Memory, which allowed him to store the Star Knights in advance and then cast them without consumption when needed.
It must be said, System Skills upon upgrading to purple were indeed powerful.
Based on Zhang Xiaomanâs estimate of combat power, these Star Guardsâ strength in one-on-one close combat was at least comparable to a Level 1 High Order monster.
That is, Alien Species with points above 15, like the Bone-eating Demon, Horror Claw, and so on.
However, he was somewhat disappointed that the Star Guards could only fire their bows consecutively five times in a short period during ranged attacks.
Exceeding this number, they temporarily couldnât condense new arrows.
As for how long this period was, Zhang Xiaoman had no clue, for while he waited, a voice from the Star Rank suddenly came through his wristwatch.
âStar Lord, the Anti-gravity Car has passed through the Shield and will soon reach your current location.â
Zhang Xiaoman was startled.
âThat fast!?â
He glanced at his wristwatch, realizing it had been just over ten minutes since he called for the car.
âThe new model of Anti-gravity Car possesses greater power and a more advanced trajectory calculation system.
It can avoid obstacles in advance with the least consumption, thereby saving more time,â
the voice of Star Rank answered, diligently explaining Zhang Xiaomanâs recent doubts.
No sooner had it finished speaking than a streak of light flashed across the sky, and a black vehicle slowly emerged, apparently having just exited its stealth modeâit was the Anti-gravity Car.
Gazing up, Zhang Xiaoman looked somewhat dazed at the behemoth drawing closer and closer to him, his expression one of surprise as he murmured to himself.
âThis, this is the Anti-gravity CarâŠ?
How could it be, so bigâŠâ
In front of him loomed a massive shape over 5 meters wide and at least 10 meters long.
It was entirely black, with the emblem of the Star Alliance painted on the bottom.
Several turrets mounted on top gave it the appearance of a flying war fortress.
âWow, itâs almost half the size of a basketball court, right?
This doesnât look like a car at all, but more like a spaceship from a sci-fi movie!â
exclaimed Zhang Xiaoman.
In his view, although he knew the Anti-gravity Car would undergo significant changes, seeing its form with his own eyes still elicited a feeling of astonishment.
The appearance of this Anti-gravity Car alone made it clear how terrifying its power was.
Eagerly awaiting the Anti-gravity Carâs descent, Zhang Xiaoman quickly opened the hatch and stepped inside; he couldnât wait to learn more about this new model of behemoth.
As Fang Yi entered the vehicle, he was once again astonished by the sight before him.
In his view, there were various monitors and buttons, with eight seats scattered around.
Behind them was a very large space, housing several compartments.
It was apparent that this multi-functional anti-gravity car wasnât designed for single-person operation.
Zhang Xiaomanâs fingers glided over the different control panels, beginning to inquire one by one what each function was for.
âData library severely lacking, scanning and comparing with this vehicleâs data, please waitâŠâ
The unhurried voice of Star Rank transmitted, and even though it took less than half a minute, it still made Zhang Xiaoman wait anxiously.
âScanning and analysis completed, anti-gravity car: Military all-purpose model data has been stored into the Star Network.
Before you is the unmanned drone combat control panel.
Would you like me to explain the detailed parameters?â
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head and said, âNot for now, introduce me to the other areas first.â
He then moved to another seat.
âWhat is this for, and what do these buttons do?â
âThis is the detection and scanning console, it has scanning capabilities, and also possesses powerful electronic warfare abilitiesâŠâ
âOh⊠then what about this?â
âThis is the defense module management port, used for monitoring the shipâs shield, armor, and other protective facilities, and also has a certain degree of repair capabilitiesâŠâ
âThis is the main control console, which can adjust the shipâs driving mode and flight trajectoryâŠâ
âThis is the weapons attack console, which can configure and use the attack positions of mounted weaponsâŠâ
âThis is the command console, a platform used by the ship captain for meetings, where you can accomplish most of the spaceship operations using holographic projection aboveâŠâ
ââŠâ
As Zhang Xiaoman listened to the introductions, he felt as if he were floating.
He hadnât expected the anti-gravity car to become so powerful after upgrading to a purple qualityâit was practically a small space battleship!
âSystem, I heard you just refer to it as a spaceship and not an anti-gravity car, is there a difference?â
Star Rankâs answer came immediately.
âBased on the intelligence I have analyzed and compared, this unit possesses space combat capabilities, so strictly speaking, it has transcended the category of anti-gravity cars and can be classified under space warships.â
Zhang Xiaoman was astounded: âMy God, it can go into space?â
âYes, according to the analysis, the spaceship is equipped with complete systems, but it can only escape the planetâs surface and is not suited for long-distance travel.â
âThen, can it go to the Moon?â
âYes, if traveling at full speed, the estimated time of arrival is 20 hours.
Do you wish to depart immediately?â
Zhang Xiaoman quickly waved his hands and said, âUh, never mind, I was just asking.
In my current state, even if I went to the Moon, I wouldnât be able to get out of the car⊠Hmm, but in the future, I could take some time to go see.
I am quite curious about what the far side of the Moon is really likeâŠâ
With this thought in mind, he looked up again at the profound starry sky and couldnât help but say to the system:
âI completely donât know how to operate this spaceship, can you help me run it?
How about we first take a trip into space and see?â
Star Rank replied, âOf course, please Star Lord take your place at the command console, activating flight modeâŠâ
He immediately took a seat, the anti-gravity car then entered an invisible state, and slowly rose into the air.
It gradually accelerated and steered toward the unknown expanse of the stars.
