Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 940 Deploying Mechs

Chapter 940 Deploying Mechs

Standing in the office overlooking the entire hanger filled with mechs, Shiro could see countless soldiers getting ready.
Right now, they were planning to launch a full on attack on a territory that had been completely taken over by a horde of high level monsters. They were all above level 450 and it was unknown if any were in the realm of tier 6.
Their numbers were much higher than the army so everyone was a bit nervous.
However, since all of the soldiers were using mechs, they'll be able to take on a few of the monsters by themselves.
"How is the prep going?" Shiro asked as she glanced back and saw Samuel about to knock on the door.
After living without her sight, Shiro decided on not using the camera as much as she could and instead using her mana senses 24/7. While it was exhausting, it was useful in terms of increasing her proficiency over her mana.
In addition to this, Shiro had also been trying her best at using boundary but it was mentally fatiguing and she would be forced to sleep.
With her soul being damaged, she needed rest but using boundary would just increase the time she needed to sleep.
There hasn't yet been any signs of improvement when it came to boundary but Shiro didn't give up.
"The preparations are almost done. A few of the soldiers are a little afraid when it comes to fighting high level monsters like that but with the power of the mechs, I believe they should overcome this fear soon." Samuel replied.
"That's good. Have Shiina, Oran and Akhess take the lead since they're the top 3 candidates in the army. They're allowed to go a little wild with their specialised mechs but remind them not to take too many kills. Since this is also a learning experience for the other soldiers." Shiro chuckled as Samuel nodded his head.
"Understood. Also, your party members are on standby, your highness."
"I know. If any tier 6 beings or an anomaly in the tier 5 category appears, they'll be interfering with the fight. For now though, I want you to send word to the participating soldiers. The mechs will automatically record your contributions in the fight. Those that have the highest contributions will receive a personalised weapon from Helion, the leader of the blacksmithing guild as well as a bracelet with a skill they want from the tier 5 catalogue." Shiro smiled as Samuel paused in surprise.
First of all, anything made by Helion could be considered a treasure since there is a guarantee that the item was extraordinary for its grade. However, there was something more desirable and that was an accessory with a skill from anything higher than tier 4. In this category, there are skills such as Kietoma which freezes your opponents body for a moment. This could possibly save your life and let you kill your enemy.
As for skills in tier 5, there was an option where you can choose three skills and have a chance to merge them into a new skill.
There was a soldier that picked this for a reward when he performed well and managed to obtain a skill called Northern Fury.
This skill was a berserk skill which wraps you in an armour made from ice and would boost your stats by 100% for a short period of time. This could also be activated a second time. The second activation would freeze everything around you. The earlier you cast this skill, the less backlash you'll receive.
After the soldier obtained this skill, everyone in the army knew that the best reward in the tier 5 catalogue was not a single skill but a combination that could match your needs. And the one making it was Shiro since she owned all the skills. If there is a compatibility between the chosen skills, the chance that a new more powerful skill appearing was high.
"Understood. I'll pass on the message. This might make them a little rowdy." Samuel chuckled.
"Mn that's fine. Let them have a bit of competition between them." Shiro nodded.
Watching Samuel leave the room, Shiro swiped with her hand and brought up a few holographic screens.
Checking their position on the map, Shiro sent out a notification that they'll be deploying in 10 minutes.
&123;Honestly, I think the rewards are a little extravagant don't you think?&125; Nimue raised an eyebrow.
'Perhaps but that's fine. We're clearing out a rather big horde of monsters so I need a good reward for the risk.' Shiro chuckled.
&123;Yes, but the reward is a little big no?&125; Nimue asked.
Shrugging her shoulders, Shiro made her way out of the office. She wanted to look for a good place to view everything with the rest of the party.

Taking a few deep breaths, I tried to calm myself. After being saved by the goddess, me and my sister lived in the second city. She picked some work at one of the stalls while I decided to apply for the army since I wanted to be as strong as the goddess that saved the two of us during the first day.
We're about to be deployed into the mountains to fight a horde of monsters that had taken over this region and the rewards for this were extravagant. I wasn't expecting myself to get the rewards. I just wanted to get stronger.
I've been a little behind in terms of combat so I wanted to use this chance to hone my strength.
"Don't be so nervous. These mechs are much stronger than they look. Even the standard units can put you on even fighting ground with a high level monster." My senior in the army comforted.
"I know. I'm just worried that I can't perform well." I forced a smile as he patted my shoulder.
"Well just keep your head up and don't get cornered. Make sure you stick near your allies ok? Good luck out there." He laughed before making his way to the other soldiers that looked nervous.
Shaking my head, I checked my equipment one last time before climbing into my mech.
Activating the mech, I watched as the mini hologram of the goddess appeared.
At first, she was going to just use a different model but when all the soldiers asked for this to be kept, including me, she accepted and let all the AI in the mechs to be a small version of her.
[User Confirmed]
[Registered Pilot – Glen]
[Cranial Connector Link Confirmed]
[Glove Connector Link Confirmed]
[Leg Connector Link Confirmed]
[Full Body Sync Confirmed]
[Connection to Standard Unit Finalised]
[Ready for Deployment]
[Good luck on the battlefield]
Watching the c.o.c.kpit of the mech light up, I sighed to myself. It was only a while ago that I thought something like this was something that could only happen in the far future but here I am, piloting one myself.
Stretching my body, I adjusted myself to the feeling of the mech.
"Attention!" A feminine voice shouted out as I recognised it to belong to Shiina, the rank 1 candidate in the army. She was also the first one to pilot the mechs out of everyone as her capabilities are heads and shoulders above the rest of us, having her lead the fight was reassuring.
As I listened to her explaining the formations as well as the plans, I couldn't help but look at the specialised units that were much bigger than the standard units.
Each of them were designed to fit the user so that they could use their magic through the mech.
I wanted one myself but I wasn't good with magic so a standard unit was enough for me.
Looking at the sword that I could deploy, I prayed silently to the Goddess, wishing for luck on the battlefield.
Watching everyone jump off the city and glide down to the mountains, I did the same and summoned the sword to my hand.
While others were slowing down, I knew that the mechs were much stronger and could survive the impact. It was just a matter of how strong your body was.
Activating the thrusters, I increased my speed before flipping the sword into a reverse grip.
*BANG!!!!
Crashing against the mountain, my mech shot out of the dust cloud before cutting two of the large monsters in half.
Watching their flesh pulse and repair the body, I knew that this was the monster skill rejuvenation that they taught us about in the lessons.
Throwing the sword at them, the sword split into four hooks that dug deep into their body while a chain was connected to the wrist.
Reeling in the monsters, I grabbed their head and slammed it into the ground as another blade was created in the palm, piercing their head and killing them for good.
"That's two." I muttered. Retrieving my sword, I charged at the next group.
###
Watching a single mech shred through two monsters immediately, Shiro was a little surprised that the soldier had actually pulled off a manoeuvre that had him charge faster towards the ground and redistribute the force as forward thrust so that he could cut them in half.
Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro decided to keep an eye on him. If he performed well, she'll give him a specialised unit.
