Chapter 571: V2 Combat Bike
The Mecha that emerged looked like an improved bipedal Sandroku Golem, but it was built at least two times larger than the ones they had used in the Goblin World. This one suited more for an Orc rather than a Goblin.
Lynn inspected it all over and aside from its bigger size, there was nothing which looked particularly impressive. (Perhaps it was noteworthy that it looked like an Ogre.)
Instead of sitting in a cockpit and controlling the robot like the ones in Supa Robot Warz, this particular Sandroku Golem appeared more like an enlarged Mecha Suit, an Ogrebuster if one might suggest.
“Does this particular thing pack a punch? Because from the looks of it, you seem to be rather underwhelming in the size department.” Lynn asked as she summoned her Combat Bike out, yet what appeared before her left her speechless.
“Happy early Christmas to you.” Jin half smiled as he could only hope that Lynn would like her present. He had made some significant changes to the Combat Bike in secret. “If you do not like this, the other bike that you own is still stored within the database of the System, and it can be pulled out again.”
Lynn was kind of shocked as she thought that Jin was only preparing Christmas gifts for the minions. “I did not expect …this. Thank you.” Lynn said as the Sub System told her to press the button at her top right chest. The Gearbox Suit immediately generated foldable plates out as well as a layer of nanofibers that covered her entire body.
The nanofibers were a product from the Black Sludge which Ayse had experimented with for the past month or so while she mixed it with Lost Tech. (Actually, she discovered it by chance when she accidentally dropped the black sludge sample onto a Lost Tech Armour plate, learning that it was capable of it duplicating the hardiness of the plate.)

Eventually, she experimented with it further and managed to make the liquid form into solid under the right electrical pulse. What’s more, it would retain its shape upon formation, and the only way to remove it would be to insert the same frequency of electrical pulses into it. Thus, Ayse said that the only weakness seemed to be electrical attacks.
Jin later incorporated that new technology by copying Yang Ling’s modular attachment inventions and hoped that it would become the new armour for his Sub System Users. While defensive inscriptions would be useful, the Mecha World would not be such a kind world that used swords and arrows. It would definitely prove to be a boon the more defence a person could pack.
“Here’s your helmet.” Jin passed it to Lynn. It had the design of a penguin with a tilted crown that was shaped for aerodynamic purpose on top of it
“You still have not answered my question!” Lynn said as she punched him lightly on his arm. She took the helmet while smiling widely at the new combat bike.
“It will be fine. I guarantee you that. Don’t you rather want to try the V2 Combat Bike first?” Jin asked, and Lynn could not keep her excitement as she nodded her head with delight. When she glanced at the V2 Combat Bike, the Sub System had already started explaining the new features of the bike to her.
Apparently, the New V2 bike had the flexibility of a yoga master. Its parts could be moved around to allow Lynn to fit and turn into tight spaces while performing a chase or escape. While the bulky armour on the V2 combat bike was still prevalent, it could be detached at a moment’s notice and be stored within the Combat Bike’s storage hard drive which had dimensional storage ring technology.

The helmet was a notch better than the one she was using since it featured the same Black Sludge Technology that Ayse had created. (She aptly named it Black Tech, because sludge sounds so crude to her.)
The Sub System integration within the helmet was vastly improved by the Half Mask HUD Technology that the System had gathered data on, making it more user friendly by showing the possible routes to take if she was in a pinch.
The V2 Combat Bike was also integrated with the Sub System, so in case Lynn made a wrong move, or there was imminent danger she was unable to respond; the AI would immediately take over. Last but not least, it finally had the ability to hover.
However, Ayse warned Jin that the Lost Tech was still lacking, so Lynn had to reach speeds of at least 100km per hour before activating the ability to hover.
That was when Lynn snorted a little and said that bikes should remain as bikes but thanked Jin for the early Christmas present. “It’s a pleasant surprise.”
“I could not think of anything better but to modify your combat bike, especially after I saw you browsing those bike modifications that Hou Fei had given you. Ah. I totally forgot about Hou Fei…I should send him a message about the Christmas Feast.”
“You better tell him not to leak it since you are keeping this tight. Does Ayse know that it’s for a Christmas present?” Lynn asked, and Jin shook his head.
“She only thinks that I was upgrading your combat abilities and did not seem to think anything of it. Besides, I’ve asked the System, and they don’t have a thing like Christmas over there. I think she will be a teeny weeny bit jealous that the stuff I asked her and the research team is for Christmas gifts…especially because I told them to rush it out. I can only hope that their present will appease them.” Jin replied as he saw Lynn chuckled slightly while putting her helmet on.
“There are a few new combat options but nothing too drastic. Happy luring! I will be waiting for you!” Jin said as the V2 Combat Bike roared loudly before it was silenced by the anti acoustic inscription placed onto the bike.
Meanwhile, Jin made some minor adjustments to the Sandroku Ogrebuster suit he summoned out from the existing portal before diving into it. As he slipped his legs into the bad boy, the System was already making calculations to send in the actual giant to fight against the monsters.
Jin knew full well how large those Giant Monsters could be and if he wanted to have a proper Christmas Feast, he would need something of the same size.
And thus, a Mecha Titan.
