But...

Uh...

Could he really still be considered human?

Probably?

At that moment, Mo Wang glanced at his chat list.

It seemed like there weren't many people in there who could be considered human, himself included.

But!

At the very least, he was still human, right?

Even before he got cheats, he could carry a one-ton weapon without even panting. He'd been shot the day before yesterday, and he was fine the next day...

Oh no, I really am not human?

Just as Mo Wang sank into the philosophical question of whether he was still human, Anis continued, "Forget it. You're the new Commander, right? You finally made it. What exactly is going on?"

"The situation is currently unclear. Please explain the current circumstances, Commander."

At this point, neither Anis nor Laphi could make sense of the situation.

Hadn't the Commander's aircraft just crashed? Why was he not only perfectly fine now...

But had also somehow produced a mech that looked terrifying?

"Well, about that... how should I explain it?"

"Simply put, some Rapture came out of nowhere and blasted the hell out of me."

"So I fell straight down from up there. I happened to run into Marian."

"Then, after taking care of the surrounding Raptures, I figured leaving all those parts there would be a waste, so I just built this thing by hand."

Anis: (°ー°〃)

Laphi: ( ̄□ ̄)

Anis: You said built by hand? Built with what? I figure it's only been an hour since you fell until now, right? How did you build something like this? How much did you leave out?!

Laphi: I don't really understand some of that, but this Commander sounds quite impressive.

"Regardless, the new Commander has arrived, and the Commander identification code has been confirmed. Thank you both for your help. Since we previously had no Commander, Anis and I were unable to properly receive combat orders. You've been a tremendous help." Laphi looked at Mo Wang, then spoke to Marian and Mo Wang with the bearing of a true soldier. "From this point on, full command authority will be handed over to the Commander. What are your next orders?"

"Wait, Laphi! How can you just hand over command like that? What if he isn't a good person?"

Though Anis didn't say it outright, she seriously suspected there was something wrong with Mo Wang's head.

After all, how could a human possibly build a giant robot capable of crushing Raptures in such a short time?

She strongly suspected that this Commander was a monster wearing human skin.

Meanwhile, Marian looked at Anis and couldn't help but offer an assessment: You're actually a pretty good judge of character.

What Does Mount Akina Mo Wang Even Mean?

"Hehehe, young lady, I never thought you'd figure it out. But it's too late now. Since command authority has already fallen into my hands, you'd better serve me obediently."

Mo Wang gave Anis and Laphi a smile worthy of a Demon King.

"Wow! So scary, Laphi. Looks like we've fallen into the hands of a bad Commander this time." Anis cooperatively put on a frightened expression.

Her ample chest bounced up and down, paired with that little expression like a startled rabbit. Her acting was practically flawless.

Wasn't that why Anis was the most popular among the trio?

Not the female lead, yet more like the female lead than the female lead.

In comparison, Laphi beside her was much calmer.

"Please tell me your name, Commander. Your identity is currently being verified."

"Oh, my name is Mo Wang. Just enter my name into the system."

"Understood. Mo Wang, correct? That name..."

As Laphi entered the name, Anis couldn't help leaning closer.

"That name sounds so familiar. I think the owner of some big company has the same name... What's going on? It says rookie Commander, so why is there an S-class confidentiality protocol?"

Anis stared at the information on the screen, unable to figure it out for a moment. "Could it be that you're actually the son of some high-ranking official?"

"No, I'm just an ordinary rookie Commander. Look at me, I'm so weak I couldn't even tie up a chicken. I'm totally a newbie, okay?" Mo Wang shamelessly told Anis.

"A newbie... too weak to tie up a chicken?"

Hearing Mo Wang's words, Marian's expression nearly cracked.

Did either of those descriptions have anything to do with you?

"Forget it. The mission is more important. Commander, you should already know the current mission details, right? About two hours ago, a NIKKE squad went missing without leaving any communication behind, so Anis and I were dispatched to investigate."

"Oh, yeah, I know. You two were supposed to form a team with one of my seniors, right? But who would've thought that senior of mine would go crazy for some reason, turn into a kamikaze commando, and blow up with the Raptures?"

Mo Wang quickly recalled the mission briefing from before departure.

Simply put, a squad had gone missing, so Laphi and Anis had been called in to investigate.

But because that squad's former Commander either had too much psychological pressure or some Japanese blood in him, he had charged straight at the Raptures with a little pistol.

The kind where even Laphi and Anis couldn't stop him.

As a result, that senior he had never met became a little pancake beneath the Raptures' feet.

"That's right. Since only the Commander knew the target location, we could only request assistance. Moreover, we are already far behind the originally estimated operation time." Yet just as Laphi finished speaking firmly, Mo Wang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"You're in a hurry, right? No problem! Leave it to me!"

Mo Wang walked over to his giant mech and kicked it.

Then, before Anis and Laphi's eyes, a brand-new off-road vehicle quickly appeared...

Bet you didn't expect that! Although Mo Wang had modified that giant mech, he hadn't thrown away the off-road vehicle he had modified earlier.

In fact, he had stuffed it inside the mech.

"There, see? With this, I can get all of you to the destination in ten minutes!"

"There's even an off-road vehicle?! Commander, I didn't expect you to be this thoroughly prepared!" Anis, who still had no idea what had happened earlier, immediately showed an excited expression the instant she saw the vehicle.

After all, if they could ride, why walk? Besides, she had been walking for so long just now that she was already exhausted.

However, the moment Marian saw the off-road vehicle, her face filled with despair.

Her pale face looked as though she had seen something utterly terrifying.

"Commander, I don't think we need to use this vehicle, do we? I think the target location isn't that far away, right?"

Marian tried to persuade Mo Wang. "You two think so too, right?"

After saying that, Marian hurriedly winked at Anis and Laphi beside her.

"But if we have an off-road vehicle, it will indeed increase our speed. There's no need to waste time on something like this."

However, Laphi clearly didn't understand what Marian meant. If they had a vehicle, naturally there was no need to proceed on foot.

"Enough nonsense, young ladies. Get in already! The Mount Akina Driver God is about to drive!"

At some point, Mo Wang had already darted into the driver's seat.

"You two, after getting in, make sure to fasten your seat belts. Also, don't open your mouths. Otherwise, something unpleasant might happen later."

With things having reached this point, Marian could only silently pray for the two NIKKEs who still had no idea what was about to happen.

"Is everyone seated? Just a reminder, we'll be going very fast. Be careful not to bite your tongues."

"Hehe, how fast could it possibly be? This young lady has flown planes before!"

"Don't worry, Commander. We're not such fragile NIKKEs."

Listening to the two fearless NIKKEs, Mo Wang merely placed his hands calmly on the steering wheel.

"Then Marian, are you ready?" Mo Wang asked Marian beside him again.

Marian said nothing. She fastened her seat belt, then closed her eyes.

"Alright! Mo Wang's little car is setting off!"

As he spoke, Mo Wang slammed the accelerator all the way down.

At that moment, it felt as if countless great masters had possessed him all at once.

The shadows of Daniel, the protagonist of Taxi, Brian, Takumi Fujiwara, and a whole host of racing kings appeared behind Mo Wang one after another.

Vrooom!

With the roar of the engine, the off-road vehicle shot from a standstill to eighty miles per hour.

What, you're asking why it was so fast? Don't ask. Just call it Mo Wang's black technology.

And the speed kept climbing.

Anis and Laphi's faces grew increasingly pale.

Their hands instinctively grabbed onto anything nearby that they could hold.

Amid the destroyed wreckage, Mo Wang's off-road vehicle was like an airplane flying at low altitude.

Ahead of them, large numbers of Raptures and building debris were piling up in the vehicle's path...

"Hey! We're going to crash! We're about to crash! Oh god, where are your brakes? Don't tell me this car doesn't even have any?!"

"Ababaaba..."

Yet in the face of the screams behind him, Mo Wang silently poured a little Honkai energy and magic power into the vehicle.

As a result, the speed of this shabby car actually broke past three hundred miles per hour.

The Raptures ahead didn't even see what was charging toward them before Mo Wang's little off-road vehicle smashed them into pulp the next instant.

"Wait, hold on. Let me check the map first."

As Mo Wang spoke, he took both hands off the steering wheel and looked at Marian beside him.

"Marian, do you have a map? The car's moving a little too fast. I can't see the road clearly."

"Commander, here is the map... Also, have you really not considered slowing down?"

"Slow? There's no such word as slow in Mo Wang's dictionary! I'm a man faster than Barry Allen!"

"Who the hell is that?! Can you please hold onto the steering wheel?! I'm going to die!"

Anis screamed nonstop behind Mo Wang.

What? You're asking where Laphi was?

Laphi had already had her eyes closed in the car for quite a while.

She had probably already passed on.

"Alright, I've checked the map. Now it's time to accelerate!"

"What do you mean? This thing can go even faster?! Mom! Save me!"

Anis's mom: Anis? (no concern.jpg)

Now Arriving—Dora Mo Wang

"Laphi, hurry up and help me..."

The off-road vehicle was parked by the roadside. Anis leaned against it with weak legs and a vacant expression.

Anyone who didn't know better would think Mo Wang had gone at her for three days and three nights, leaving her unable to stand.

Yet Laphi did not respond to Anis.

Because Laphi was likewise slumped in her seat, in a very unladylike posture. Well, just about everything that could be exposed was basically exposed by now.

But Laphi had absolutely no mood to think about that.

At that moment, she was incomparably grateful that being alive was such a wonderful thing.
