Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 686 - 459: The Taste of Love

Chapter 686 -459: The Taste of Love

This was the final result of her many nights of deep thought.

She wanted to be by his side; she didn’t want to be the girl who could only cry behind Mu Fan while he fought in interstellar battles.

Mu Fan could only feel the softest part of his heart being deeply touched.

“Master, the core parts of the two Extreme Special Soldiers, which are the Meteor 3 engines, haven’t been damaged. I will contact the base as soon as possible to repair these two mechs, and I will contact you as soon as they’re fixed.”

Wang Nuonuo looked at Mu Fan’s resolute and angular face and said gently.

Mu Fan, in those clear eyes opposite him, saw his own reflection, the girl’s determination.

So he nodded gently, “Yes.”

Seeing Mu Fan’s reaction, a joyful expression finally appeared on Wang Nuonuo’s face.

In that moment, the whole room seemed to brighten up with the girl’s smile.

Perhaps even Nuonuo herself didn’t know that this decision of hers would, in the future, lead Loki Heavy Industry to grow to such an extent, and how astonished Mu Fan would be when they met again.

“Master, I’ll go back and get ready.”

The girl’s bright eyes looked at Mu Fan, and at that moment, the whole room seemed to be filled with blooming hibiscus flowers, warm and fragrant.

Wang Nuonuo took two gentle steps back, her gaze unwavering as she looked at Mu Fan, seemingly wanting to deeply imprint his figure in her heart.

Then suddenly, as if mustering all her courage, she stepped forward.

Mu Fan’s hand trembled subconsciously but he controlled it well and did not move.

A soft body crashed into his embrace, and a mass of black hair obscured the girl’s bright eyes and white teeth.

Mu Fan’s body was very stiff; he could not quite clarify his feelings at the moment.

He only felt happier at this instant than when he had mastered the Six Forms…when he had mastered the Soglier series of skills.

Wang Nuonuo’s cheeks were red like sunset clouds, yet she adorably nuzzled her little face against Mu Fan’s broad chest, pressing her side face tightly against it, her eyes closed as she murmured, “Master, being by your side is the most comforting moment for me. Meeting you in this life is Nuonuo’s greatest fortune.”

Mu Fan’s rigid body unconsciously softened, and his eyes, which had been briefly confused, became resolute once more at that moment.

His hands, initially unsure of what to do, slowly came together in an embrace.

Wang Nuonuo’s slender waist was finally held by Mu Fan, and at that moment, time seemed to freeze.

At this moment, Mu Fan only felt his chest filled with a sensation called warmth and joy. If he had sought advice from his teacher, many seniors would certainly tell him.

This sensation is known as the taste of love.

“Nuonuo, one day… I will grow to the point where no one dares to bully you anymore. Be it any family… noble, wealthy, regardless of the planet… whether it’s the Galaxy Federation or the Gardot Empire… whether it’s the Outer Domain Galaxy or Solomon.”

Mu Fan spoke with unprecedented gentleness, and the girl with flushed cheeks closed her eyes and hummed faintly in response; she did not see the resolute brilliance in the young man’s eyes.

Nuonuo only felt her body limp with no strength at all; she did not clearly hear what Mu Fan was saying, she just enjoyed listening to his voice.

For some reason, she just liked to listen, liked it so much it warmed her heart.

And at eighteen years of age, Mu Fan, with unusual tenderness but surpassing any previous determination, made a promise of his own to the girl in his arms.

The two of them unaware of each other’s thoughts, yet feeling closer in spirit at this moment than ever before.

When the fragrance of the girl’s body lingered on his nose tip, her silhouette had already gradually receded.

Watching the doors closing one after another, Mu Fan’s eyes were firm and tranquil, murmuring to himself softly: “I do as I say.”

When the room finally fell silent, Mu Fan withdrew his gaze and turned his head slightly to say:

“Black, prepare for tonight’s party.”

“Going to be a big event?” Black asked excitedly.

“No, just learning a bit about upper-class society,” Mu Fan said indifferently. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

…

Had the young man from the Biological and Medical Research Center actually recovered and left?

This news spread through the medical community like wildfire, leaving several research mentors nearly unable to believe it.

That little guy who had only been admitted under the principal’s guidance had arrived almost as a bloodied man. In the data assessment, several indicators were stable yet significantly higher than the normal values.

And now, in less than 24 hours, he had been able to apply to leave on his own.

Upon receiving the news, the person in charge of the Biological Cabin immediately called Ruan Xiongfei on Sky Communication.

“Mu Fan wants to leave on his own? He’s recovered?”

Indeed, upon hearing the report, Ruan Xiongfei showed extreme shock immediately.

Then, the next sentence he uttered induced a mental breakdown in the person on the other end.

“Hahaha, that’s indeed fitting for my disciple, Ruan Xiongfei. His body should be this robust. I’ll go pick him up right away!”

The corner of the person’s mouth twitched as he put down the Sky Communication device, cursing inwardly, was this physique supposed to be ‘robust’?

The recent data had shown bone and muscle density that almost made one believe they were looking at a human-shaped reinforced concrete.

Unfortunately, they had no more reason to keep this young man around for the research tests they had just planned.

Ah, where to find such an excellent subject for experimentation.

Putting on the student uniform provided by the center, Mu Fan at this moment looked every bit the obedient freshman that he was. However, he walked out under the gaze of the research center staff who looked as if they had seen a prehistoric monster.

At this moment Mu Fan had not informed anyone else, yet he found an eagerly awaiting big bald head standing outside the door.

When Bald Ruan saw Mu Fan appear, he laughed heartily and moved forward to slap him on the back. But then he seemed to remember something at the last moment, gently patting Mu Fan on the shoulder instead.

“You little rascal, you really had me worried. To survive under this starry sky, strength alone isn’t enough. You, my boy, are one of those heaven-defying beings whose luck is proportional to their strength! You must live well for me, Old Ruan; you’re the only disciple I’ve got.”

Looking at Bald Ruan’s wistful expression, a warmth filled Mu Fan’s heart, and he nodded.

“How come you’re leaving early? It’s not easy to get into a place like this; if you don’t stay longer, how can you live up to such a rare opportunity? I can’t even get into this research center normally.”

“There’s a banquet tonight and, as a mech pilot from Loki Heavy Industry, I need to attend.”

Bald Ruan scratched his bald head and realized, “No wonder… But boy, you sure kept it deep. If it weren’t for this combat competition, I wouldn’t have known that your mecha piloting skills were so high! Heh heh, since that’s the case…”

Before Mu Fan could dodge, he felt a black shadow envelop his shoulder instantaneously, and then the gleaming bald head was next to his own.

Bald Ruan’s buzzing words entered his ears like rolling thunder, directly shaking Mu Fan’s heart.

“In that case, join the War God Mecha’s adaptability special training in a couple of days?”

“You’re so impressive, why didn’t you say so earlier? You really made me worry over nothing!”

“What, not happy? The Thunderhawk is pretty awesome.”

“Now I can finally pass on this trump card of mine, you should be excited!”

The non-stop chatter by his ear obliterated the calm Mu Fan had.

The Extreme Special Soldier in his hand had only just been scrapped, and here came an S-class pinnacle Thunderhawk?

This wasn’t some common mecha; it was one of the top War God Mechas in the Federation. Why did Bald Ruan always seem to fear he couldn’t sell it off?

Finally, Mu Fan managed to break free from Ruan Xiongfei’s grasp and nodded, “Okay.”

“At last, I can be free…”

As thunder rumbled, Mu Fan just felt that old veteran light up with excitement at the prospect of shaking off a big burden.
