Chapter 487: Sabotage on the Field
Immortal Soldier University.
Wangou Xuan stared at the teacher in front of him, utterly astonished. “Teacher, are you serious?”
The teacher nodded and looked toward the colossal puppet in the distance. “Yes. The post-match repair costs will be fully reimbursed.”
“For the upcoming match against Wanfa University, no matter how badly the Earthshaker Deity gets damaged, the school will cover it.”
Wangou Xuan’s heart surged with excitement upon hearing that. He nearly wanted the massive puppet before him to self-destruct right then and there so he could claim a reimbursement and swap it for a brand-new one.
The gigantic military-grade puppet—Earthshaker Deity—was the military backbone of the Civil Engineering Department at Immortal Soldier University.
After years of upgrades and maintenance, Earthshaker Deity had been repeatedly used by Civil Engineering students who had passed the Military License Exam. Its construction abilities were beyond question—whether it was the ten-thousand-unit mana-powered dantian inside, the terrain-altering Earthvein shock joints, or the recently installed Genvein Aspect added to win a Spirit Vein relocation contract last year—all of it gave Earthshaker Deity work capabilities far beyond that of a standard Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Such a military-grade puppet should have been a prime contender for first place in the cross-campus civil engineering competitions. But the burden of maintenance costs had always held Wangou Xuan back from unleashing its full power each year.
In past matches, he had often used his teammates as human shields for the Earthshaker Deity. After all, repairing teammates was often cheaper than repairing the puppet.
