Am I Really Not Cut Out for Teaching

The change in mechanized power was abrupt.

But it was a good thing.

It greatly enhanced Xu Xi's combat capabilities.

After a brief test to fully understand the new changes, Xu Xi maintained his original plan and began an assault on the Sixth Satellite City, which was occupied by sentient machines.

"Ailei, get suited up."

"Yes, Master."

Levers rose, and torques meshed.

Under the steel and concrete dome of the laboratory, numerous modified alloy parts converged from all directions, installing the mechanical heart that resonated for Xu Xi and extending the black, radiant skeleton.

The air was moist and warm.

In the hazy glow, two lights tore through the fog—the view screens of the powered helmet flickering.

Click—

Click—

The speed of donning the suit gradually increased.

[Weapon modules fully loaded and unlocked, high-frequency particle oscillation blades ready, continuous-fire electromagnetic burst cannons ready, RK-type Gauss sniper rifles ready]

[Anti-gravity module loaded, flight permissions now available, pre-charged at 40%]

[Shield module activated, fully covering exterior armor]

[Radar module, guidance module, communication module...]

Accompanied by a series of cold, mechanical voices, Xu Xi's suit-up neared completion. Stepping out, he exuded an overwhelming presence as he left the laboratory.

Beside him was a dignified and graceful machine servant girl with a delicate face. Behind him was a dark mass of well-organized mechanical army.

"The boy who hunted the dragon has ultimately become one."

"Sentient machine barrage tactics are indeed exhilarating."

Xu Xi turned back.

Automatic turrets, speed drones, laser-linked micro platforms... one by one, weaponized sentient machines, all controlled by Ailei, with their external crimson electronic eyes glowing menacingly.

To prevent rebellions, all weapons produced were instantly placed under Ailei's comprehensive control.

Ailei's computational power was growing day by day.

Controlling more sentient machines posed no strain.

"Let’s go, Ailei. Things are about to get busy."

"Yes, Master."

Xu Xi moved forward once more, with his loyal servant girl following closely behind.

Soon, clad in his powered armor, Xu Xi led the vast mechanical army through a pre-cleared underground passage, stepping into the bright world above.

The sky was a brilliant blue.

Without a cloud in sight.

The familiar dust storm raged on, and the endless desolate ruins stretched out before them.

"Whoosh—" A cutting sound came from above, swift and fierce, casting a shadow over a large area as it swooped down.

It was the sentient machine eagle, who had been resolutely seeking Xu Xi ever since their last encounter.

"Rushing to deliver your first kill, huh?"

Xu Xi stood still.

Facing the menacing sentient machine eagle, he made no attempt to dodge. Calm and composed, he raised his right hand towards the steel beast diving at him.

He extended his index and middle fingers.

Holding an imaginary gun.

Whispering softly, "Pew~~~"

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!... Swoosh! Swoosh!

Thousands upon thousands of dazzling lights shot out from behind Xu Xi, like arrows released from a bow, tearing the sky into countless enduring streaks.

Intersecting lines crisscrossed, forming a beautiful yet chilling spectacle.

Before it could even make a move to dodge, the sentient machine eagle was swallowed by the onslaught, disintegrating into countless fragments falling from the sky.

The tranquility of the Sixth Satellite City was shattered.

From the ruins, the grass, and the shadows, semi-active rebellious sentient machines began to emerge.

Some were once federal household machines, some were public assistance machines for humans, and others were military machines belonging to the federal forces. Now, they all hummed with their engines revving.

"Warning!... Warning!...

"Unidentified sentient machine detected. Please submit your federal serial number, or armed suppression will be carried out—"

"Repeat, Warning!"

Chaotic warnings echoed from various ruined structures.

It was absurd and bizarre.

These machines, which had killed humans and destroyed the federal civilization, now issued shrill warnings, intending to eliminate what they deemed detrimental to the federal cause.

Namely, the new sentient machines produced by Xu Xi.

"This rebellion isn’t that simple, after all."

"However, for me now, probing its essence is too far ahead. Let’s start by clearing the areas around the lab."

Xu Xi raised his hand to signal.

Mechanized power infused and connected him with all the rear-facing machines, commanding them to sweep the area.

More specific details were assisted by Ailei, who meticulously operated each machine, ensuring seamless cooperation between them.

The sound of something piercing the air.

The sound of heavy thundering footsteps.

The drone units were the fastest, buzzing and scattering widely, fearlessly dominating the vast sky with their laser arrays, slaughtering any rebellious sentient machines they encountered.

Following closely were a multitude of armed autonomous robots and mobile combat platforms designed for wasteland operations.

Ailei's 140 rapid-fire electromagnetic cannons were divided into four groups, each defending Xu Xi's front, back, left, and right.

Energized and ready for action.

While absorbing solar energy for reserves, they simultaneously locked onto sentient machines across the city.

Lacking unified command and core direction, the rebellious sentient machines in the Sixth Satellite City appeared scattered, but their enormous numbers meant Xu Xi never underestimated them.

**c man best want make run**

“What a lively scene...”

The wind that blew in their faces was no longer the gentle spring breeze, but the scorching hot wind stinking of gunpowder.

Xu Xi and his machine servant girl stood still.

Watching silently as explosions rippled ahead.

Scarlet flames, waves of erosion—all reflected the fierce intensity of the battle.

The iconic high tower that once symbolized the Sixth Satellite City cracked and groaned before collapsing to the ground, smashing into a colossal cloud of dust.

Xu Xi couldn’t help but sigh.

"..."

The machine servant girl stood beside him, gazing at Xu Xi's profile, then looked towards the turbulent battlefield ahead.

Her silver-blue eyes, inherently mechanical, blinked slightly.

She suddenly took a few steps forward.

Closer to Xu Xi.

So close that she could practically be said to be pressed against him.

"What’s wrong, Ailei?" Xu Xi asked, puzzled.

"Ailei is scared and needs Master's protection," the servant girl replied. "According to the federal database, feeble women can invoke male protection instincts, thereby receiving more affection."

"Doesn’t Master like that?"

With her silver-encased blue eyes, blinking expressionlessly in mechanical fashion, she met Xu Xi's gaze.

Faced with such an Ailei,

Xu Xi couldn't help but chuckle.

“Don’t do that again in the future. Even without all that, I’ll still like Ailei.”

Xu Xi habitually rubbed Ailei’s hair.

Ailei nodded obediently.

But, seeing such an Ailei,

Xu Xi couldn't help but recall his previous simulations.

“Am I really not suitable for teaching someone?”

“From the first simulation to the present fourth one, I always feel like things go off-track for no reason.”

“Forget it, I can't think about it anymore. Idling for so long, it's time to get active and move.”

Xu Xi twisted his neck, and the thrusters on his back began to howl as they propelled him into the air.

His hand grasped tight.

The high-frequency oscillation blade in a greatsword form glowed brightly.

The weapon platform on his back, under Ailei's control, activated multiple lasers, electromagnetic rays, and microwave weapons, which detached from the armor to roam and hover in the air.
