How could he not be satisfied? He was satisfied!
A Gundam! Hell yes!
Mo Wang thought, just piloting Heavenly Thunder was already this awesome. If one day a version of himself from Super Robot Wars showed up, wouldn't that be absolutely insane?
His standards weren't high. Give him something like Gurren Lagann, Getter, or an Archon, and he'd be happy.
As for GaoGaiGar, Unicorn, God Gundam, and the like, he wouldn't exactly refuse them either.
As long as it wasn't something like the King of Hearts.
That thing had way too much prestige. Let the version of him over in Honkai: Star Rail pilot it.
But just as Mo Wang was planning to enjoy himself a little longer, an alarm began sounding inside Heavenly Thunder.
Warning. Energy levels are insufficient. Please begin charging immediately!
"Come on, man, I've only played a few rounds! Why the hell are you already running out of power?"
Seeing the low-energy warning on the screen, Mo Wang nearly threw up.
Was this really like Ultraman? Charge for three months, appear for three minutes?
Was Heavenly Thunder powerful?
Of course it was.
It could casually scour the surface clean. If it went all out, Mo Wang could wipe out every last Rapture within three days.
But that was precisely the problem. This damn thing was too powerful.
After changing from a card into a physical entity, it actually consumed energy!
Such a powerful Heavenly Thunder was somehow a Real Robot type! Mo Wang was speechless.
Using it once consumed an enormous amount of energy. How the hell was he supposed to keep playing with it?
Of course, in other worlds, Heavenly Thunder's energy consumption would be nothing.
After all, the Honkai world had Honkai energy, while Honkai: Star Rail didn't lack things that could provide a charge.
Even in Genshin Impact, he could use elemental energy or phlogiston.
Only in NIKKE! Energy was actually the biggest problem.
One had to know that in that hellhole called the Ark, even electricity bills were outrageously expensive.
The only thing that could be considered a massive energy source was a Rapture's core...
Unless Mo Wang had the guts to imitate the Ark by removing the core of a Tyrant-class Rapture, keeping it alive, and installing it onto Heavenly Thunder, he had no intention of using the thing at all.
Not to mention, he also had another energy guzzler on hand—the Hyperion.
If he used these things a few more times, even if Mo Wang had a fortune saved up, he wouldn't be able to keep it afloat.
Couldn't they see that he was practically about to transform into a Super Robot pilot and charge Heavenly Thunder himself?
"Bzzzt!" At that moment, the Tyrant-class Rapture Blacksmith, after being bombarded repeatedly, still had red light glowing in its eyes.
"Forget it. Since things have come to this, let me enjoy myself one last time!"
Looking at the still-living Tyrant-class Rapture, Mo Wang decisively poured all his energy into Heavenly Thunder in one go.
"What is that robot doing? Holy shit! It's about to unleash a big move!"
In everyone's eyes, Heavenly Thunder was already radiating a terrifying light.
As energy gathered, the two cannons behind Heavenly Thunder opened as well.
"Try this! Finisher! Divine Annihilation Thunder Fire!!!!"
A blinding flash erupted.
Everything, everything at all, was reduced to nothing beneath that terrifying purple lightning.
When everyone opened their eyes again, all they saw was a massive ravine.
Forget the Raptures—even the earth itself had been torn apart, exposing a huge crater.
Raptures: Go die.
Chapter 74: Mo Wang: Watching Women Fight Is the Most Fun
After the Raptures had been completely wiped out, Mo Wang silently climbed down from Heavenly Thunder.
Well, it had been fun.
But the problem was pretty serious too.
Using Heavenly Thunder to clear out all the Raptures in front of the Ark had directly turned most areas of the Ark into uninhabited zones.
But what was the price, Mo Wang?
Obviously, the sky-high electricity bill.
"Damn it. If I'd known it burned energy this fast after just one use, I would've just charged it myself from the start."
Thinking about the electricity bill that would soon land in his hands, Mo Wang couldn't help looking up at the sky.
He finally understood the pain of his counterparts in the Honkai world and the ZZZ world.
The Slacker King of Hyperion: You should be grateful I didn't put an artificial idiot in there for you.
The Video Store Owner: Yeah. The electric meter at my place has long since started spinning backward.
Mo Wang figured that if he used it a few more times, whether or not he went bankrupt was one thing, but those people from the power department would definitely come knocking.
Although one of those two was a gaming nerd, and the other was an ultimate socially anxious shut-in girl.
Getting into trouble with them wouldn't be much of a problem.
But when he imagined using the Ark's pitifully limited electricity to charge up again, those two might just run up to him and kill themselves.
Troni: Commander! Please, stop using the Ark's electricity! There really isn't even a drop left!
Eleg: Yeah, Commander! You used up three years' worth of the Ark's electricity in one go! We can't even play BOOM anymore!
At the thought of those two hugging his legs and begging desperately, Mo Wang couldn't help sighing.
Sure enough, he was just too kindhearted.
Fine, when the time came, they could make up for the missing electricity by wearing Maid Outfits and coming to his room. Hehehe!
"Come to think of it, where are Laphi and the others?"
Mo Wang looked around and discovered that the two of them seemed to be doing something on a small hill nearby.
"What are you two doing?"
When Mo Wang walked over, his vision went dark.
"Laphi! Hurry up! Marian's pulling my ears!"
Anis, her golden bob now a complete mess, was straddling Marian's waist like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Then she suddenly shrieked and jumped away. The crazed Marian had abruptly bitten Anis on the chest.
"Wait! Marian's biting my chest!"
Meanwhile, Laphi had one knee pressed against Marian's left shoulder. Her uniform was also especially disheveled, while one of Marian's hands was gripping Laphi's chest, which was one size smaller than Anis's. Laphi's calm voice carried a hint of helplessness. "Anis, don't use your thighs to lock her neck. You could easily hurt her that way."
"I'm demonstrating my talent for judo!" As she spoke, the blonde girl suddenly bent backward with agility, barely dodging Marian's hand reaching beneath her shorts. "Hey! How can you use that move? That's too much!"
Laphi took the opportunity to loop a rope around Marian's ankle, her military boot pinning down the other girl's right leg as it tried to kick at her waist and abdomen. "Hold her belt tight. Don't let—Anis!" Before she could finish, Laphi was pinned beneath Marian, who suddenly sprang up.
"I'm telling you, can Erosion actually make NIKKE stronger? This strength is completely ridiculous!" Anis panted heavily.
In only a short while, her uniform had already been torn to shreds, exposing several areas and revealing flashes of skin.
The three beautiful girls were playing a game of human stacking amid the ruins.
The scene was a little too beautiful. Mo Wang couldn't quite understand it.
"Commander? You finally came!"
Seeing Mo Wang arrive, Anis finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Commander, we'll be done soon! Wait for us!"
Laphi was still struggling to hold Marian down.
"Don't rush. I'm waiting."
As he spoke, Mo Wang even pulled out that ancestral white chair and sat down to watch the show.
Sure enough, the legendary philosopher king Lu Xiaobu had been right. Watching women fight was the most fun.
It took nearly ten minutes before Anis and Laphi finally pinned Marian to the ground and tied her up.
"Commander, what should we do now?"
Laphi straightened out her uniform and asked Mo Wang, who had already scattered sunflower seed shells all over the ground.
"Laphi, what should we do with a NIKKE who has already been afflicted by Erosion?"
Instead of answering Laphi's question, Mo Wang asked her one in return.
"When encountering a NIKKE suffering from Erosion, she must be immediately disposed of... That is the Ark's regulation."
Always decisive, Laphi's expression became somewhat hesitant when faced with Mo Wang's question.
"Do we really have to do that?"
Anis looked at Marian, who could only babble incoherently on the ground now, and hesitated greatly.
Although the three had spent only a short time together, they had still been comrades who had risked their lives side by side.
To make her kill her own comrade like this, Anis honestly couldn't bring herself to do it.
Though she also knew it was an Ark regulation, one that ordinary people had no right to defy.
"Commander, if you're unwilling to do it, I can handle it for you."
Laphi seemed to have noticed Mo Wang's hesitation as well and offered on her own initiative.
"No need. You two are already exhausted. I'll handle something like this."
Mo Wang refused Laphi's kindness and walked up to Marian in just a few steps.
"Commander... Commander... Commander..."
When Marian saw Mo Wang approaching, her incoherent babbling changed into the repeated chanting of his name.
Her vacant crimson eyes stared fixedly at Mo Wang.
"I'm sorry, Marian. I have no other choice."
Mo Wang pulled a handgun from his chest and aimed it at Marian.
"Bang!"
Mo Wang aimed at Marian's forehead and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Watching the scene before her, Laphi turned away with some reluctance.
Anis lowered her head in disappointment.
"Sure enough, even the Commander is..."
"All right, the plan was a success. Let's take Marian back now. Just like I said, mere Erosion is child's play for a genius like me!"
Before Anis and Laphi could mourn Marian's death, Mo Wang told them that Marian was already better!
"Huh? What happened?"
The two looked at Marian lying on the ground in astonishment.
Marian, who had originally been infected by Erosion, began losing her Erosion symptoms after being hit by the bullet.
"Commander, what is this?" Laphi looked at Mo Wang in shock.
There had never been any record of such a thing in the Ark.
"An Anti-Erosion Bullet. It's a new product I developed not long ago. Good thing I was prepared." Mo Wang smiled and raised the gun in his hand toward Anis and Laphi.
"You have something like that? Then why did you make that kind of expression just now?"
