Arachnos Mech.
Jake woke up to the squeaky sound of his hamster, the small demon, as he called it, was busy waving its tiny paws over Jake’s face while standing on his chest.Seeing his hamster try so hard to gain his attention made him laugh lightly.“Okay, calm down. I’ll get you something to eat. Daddy’s a little rich now,” Jake said with a smile on his face, he had never felt happier since transmigrating into this world.He swiftly opened his nearly run-down fridge, pulled out a carrot, and tossed it to his hamster. After that, he quickly tidied up, bathing and doing all the necessary things that needed to be done.Today, he would be properly briefed on how he was going to accomplish the mission assigned to him.Based on the arrangement, it was clear that he would now be working closely with the army, though he was originally supposed to work for them only after graduating, however he didn’t mind starting early.In fact, if not for the many things he wanted to learn about the history of this wor

[ Status ]Mech Name: ArachnosClass: SupportRank: RareSpecial Ability: Spider TurretAbility Cooldown: 22sStar: ⭐[ Description at Current Level ]The Arachnos mech has many advantages, such as higher energy capacity that allows it to equip better weapons, as well as far greater durability than most low-tier mechs. However, all of that seems to be overshadowed by one major flaw, and that is the fact that humans still find it difficult to properly pilot a beast mech. For those who can bring out the full potential of the Arachnos, they become pilots to be feared. For those who lack the knowledge to handle it well, they become pilots others easily overlook.As Jake gently caressed the body of the mech, he couldn’t help but fall in love with it all over again. Unlike many of the newly awakened super soldiers, who wouldn’t truly understand the value of the Arachnos mech, Jake still carried the memories of his past life, though the description before him made him flinch slightly, howeve
The 50% Threshold Importance.
After they reached the next location, the people there also made sure not to waste his time, as he was asked to stand on a certain machine, and several UV lights moved up and down around him, almost as if they were scanning his body.When he was done, he stepped down, and Zack tried to chat with him a little, telling him not to expect too much. Since the army was on a budget, they were only able to provide standard combat suits, and unlike rich scions, who could afford customized combat suits, Jake would only be receiving the basic version.Jake swiftly bowed and thanked him, showing his gratitude, saying he didn’t care much about whether it was basic or not. He was already satisfied that a combat suit was being given to him at all.So while they were waiting for the suit that matched him to be brought out, Zack tossed a dog tag and a black watch toward him.The moment Jake saw the watch, he immediately recognized it as the same one Old Man Alfred had given Zack the day before.“Tha
Money Hungry System.
“Your combat suit is ready.”The middle-aged man who had gone to make the necessary adjustments after taking Jake’s measurements finally came out to announce it.Immediately, the smile on Jake’s face went into full overdrive as he was led toward where the suit was being kept.However, just before Captain Zack could follow him in to see it, a loud alarm suddenly began blaring. Both Zack and the man who was supposed to guide Jake to his suit looked up, only to see a red light flashing.“An attack has occurred again. Jake, I’ll have to leave you in his capable hands for now. Don’t worry, Silas is very good when it comes to things like this. He’ll explain everything you need to know about your combat suit.”That was the last thing Zack said before rushing out.“Now, come over here and see your suit. All you have to do is use your system to scan it, and once the scan is complete, it will be linked to you. Though I would have loved to stay and explain everything your combat suit can and can
Implants Acquired.
Implants were tools that could be used to boost the basic capabilities of a pilot.However, they started from the Rare rank, there were no Common or Uncommon implants, and because of the amount of beast carcasses and rare resources needed before one could even be created, their cost was so high that those barely trying to make a living could never afford even the lowest grade.However, Jake knew his limits.Though he didn’t know what kind of lifeform was attacking and why the whole base felt like it had turned into a hot zone, he wasn’t foolish enough to believe his current self would be able to make a big difference without upgrading a few things first.He believed he could still steal a few kills with his experience and current level, but he didn’t want to be just another average soldier, he wanted to stand out.And in order to stand out the way he wanted, he needed implants.With implants, he would be able to bypass the twenty-percent output limit of his talent, and if his strength
Shadow Wolves 1.
“Woah.”The word slipped out of Jake’s mouth before he could even control himself, he raised his hands and stared at the combat suit now covering his body.The instant he saw it, he knew there was no way that Silas, the one who was there during the creation of his combat suit, wouldn't be able to tell that the suit he was wearing was no longer the same one that had been created for him.There were now lines running along the edges, and the body of the suit had taken on a darker grey hue instead of the pure black it had originally possessed, but that wasn’t all.Across the sleek markings drawn over the suit, different colored lights kept appearing and fading back into the armor, almost like some kind of random color display.And as if that wasn’t enough, there was now a small backpack mounted on his back. Jake could tell immediately that it was there to compliment the Arachnos mech’s special ability.Just below the backpack were two additional thrusters, with another two boosters place
Shadow Wolves 2.
“Any improvement?” Zack asked as he turned toward Lionel, the other captain with an eyepatch.“Nah. James stayed back at the base, sending the SOS message to Region C, hoping their army would at least send one of their platoons—if they couldn’t send the ones responsible for this situation in the first place to come and resolve it. However, it seems we’ve been barking up the wrong tree,” Lionel said.“What did they say? Just tell me as it is,” Zack asked, grinding his teeth in anger.“They’re asking that we give them our weekly earnings from the mines, they also want Jake to hand over his B-Coin reward to a certain someone who has entered the academy,” Lionel said.“Well, that isn’t going to be possible, even if we can sacrifice our earnings, but making a less privileged kid sacrifice what he earned? That’s not something we’re known to do. I guess they don’t want to take responsibility and are just using this as an opportunity to wash their hands clean. Bastards,” Zack cursed.“What sh
Shadow Wolves 3.
The awakened who had just been shouting at Jake raised his head and saw his other two teammates opening fire on the Shadow Wolves that lunged at them, they had retreated by running along the walls like a group of super-powered Spider-Men, though they still made sure to keep their balance.This was just another feature of the combat suits.They clearly couldn’t face the beasts one-on-one so they did this to buy time, but all these happened because they had two new additions at the back, which made the wolves grow even more relentless, sensing that their prey might soon disappear before them.So they dashed forward, with two of them spreading out to occupy the two awakeners who were supposed to be the first line of defense.That was why, when Jake saw the last Shadow Wolf heading straight for the awakener trying to shield the family, he immediately sprang into action, not even fully sure what his actions would cause.He remembered that his AI had told him he would be able to use his spe
Style Of Battle.
With him bent like that, Jake was able to change the trajectory of his Jump Jets, as the boosters on his calves ignited along with the thrusters on his back, propelling him straight toward the Shadow Wolf’s in one swift motion as the energy from the activated ability created a loud bang when he shot off.The sound of ticking rang out as he blasted forward in a blur, seeing Jake make his move, the other two also moved to encircle the remaining Shadow Wolf on the side, with the soldier who had been giving Jake information about the city’s situation joining in as well.The Shadow Wolf that Jake had closed in on clearly wasn’t about to go down easily, especially after seeing how its companion had been taken out.When it saw Jake turn into a blur and rush toward it, it opened its mouth and swiftly condensed what looked like a small shadow-energy beam. Clearly, with the speed Jake was using to close the distance, it didn’t dare waste time gathering more energy.Bang!Just before Jake could
The Dream Team Building.
The soldier who had gone earlier to redirect the other family to safety finally came back. However, when he saw his colleagues placing their emblem marks on the bodies of the Shadow Wolves, he couldn’t help staring in shock.He had believed something bad would happen to them, but it seemed he had been overthinking it.“We’re done. We can move now and see if there are any other Soldier-rank beasts scattered around the lower streets, with you acting alongside our team, not only will we be able to protect more citizens and cover more ground, but we might even be able to earn a lot of merit points,” the awakened soldier who had now dedicated himself to explaining things to Jake said.Jake had come to know his name as Toby.“Merit points? What are those?” Jake asked.Toby pointed toward the bodies of the three Shadow Wolves lying on the ground, their corpses had been engraved with some sort of insignia, and below it was the mark of Region F.“That is our team’s emblem, whenever we are resp
