Transmission first reached the metal skeleton, and then it was pulled by the meat tumors resembling muscles, just like real biological movements, driving such a massive object.
Thanks to the outstanding sound insulation of the Mecha, this noise was much quieter than that of a tank.
“Damn, have I become a Spider Main Battle Mecha?”
Cao Yangchun internally cursed as he felt his entire body, hands, and feet seemingly replaced by those of a Spider Armor Puppet.
It was like a VR game, but the sense of immersion and control was far beyond what current VR games could achieve.
The sense of stillness was so intense that Cao Yangchun tried to move.
The Spider Main Battle Mecha took a step with its two foremost limbs, but the six long legs at the back remained motionless.
“Brother Cao, you need to abandon human conventional thinking, imagine yourself as a giant spider or an octopus, and control the Mecha as a whole,”
the voice of Hao Guyu came through the headset, and Cao Yangchun knew how to correct himself, but the habits adopted from childhood, of walking with two legs, switching suddenly to eight legs, was not a trivial difficulty.
Luckily, Cao Yangchun was a Genetic Warrior, possessing far superior neurological responses and senses than an average person.
Under the guidance of Hao Guyu, it took him an hour to finally be able to walk normally with the Spider Main Battle Mecha.
After another two hours, Cao Yangchun could awkwardly make the Spider Main Battle Mecha jog while flexibly rotating the upper body of the Spider Mecha and various gun mounts and turrets.
Click!
The fifteen-meter-high Spider Main Battle Mecha darted back and forth across the field, its astonishing weight of hundreds of tons exhibited an agility that belied its mass.
“Impressive, Brother Cao, you got the hang of it in just a few hours.”
Below, Hao Guyu praised him as many soldiers from the First Mechanical Brigade gathered around, all watching Cao Yangchun’s performance, which was already quite extraordinary.
“Still far behind you guys, won’t be proficient without a month,”
Cao Yangchun modestly claimed, yet a month’s time, for controlling such a Spider Main Battle Mecha, was indeed not long.
“Needs some time to get used to, much better than ordinary people. Initially, when we had ordinary people try to pilot, the performance was worlds apart,”
Hao Guyu said, giving a thumbs up. If it were an ordinary person, controlling such a huge machine would basically be difficult.
Although using a neural link eliminated various cumbersome manual operations,
due to the consciousness of ordinary humans, a single person struggled to react and control. Spider Main Battle Mecha required controlling eight long legs, operating multiple turrets and aiming, utilizing Eye Worms for reconnaissance and enemy search, and performing agile dodging.
This was like multi-thread operation in a game. It’s already quite difficult for top players to manage three or four threads, and piloting a Spider Main Battle Mecha required simultaneous operation of a dozen threads, you can imagine the difficulty.
Ordinary humans’ nerves simply couldn’t keep up; it needed multiple people coordinating to possibly get such a large Mecha moving, and even then it wasn’t as agile as when a Genetic Warrior piloted it, feeling like a living thing with no stiffness.
Cao Yangchun played with the Spider Main Battle Mecha for a while before he reluctantly left the driver’s seat.
Jumping down from a slide, Cao Yangchun looked towards his boss, Miao Lun.
“Boss, when are we getting such big toys?”
Seeing the Spider Main Battle Mecha, Cao Yangchun was envious; which boy could resist such big toys!
“Commander Su said that our Steel Camp needs to be versatile in combat. Once the war is over, they’ll let us train in piloting the Spider Main Battle Mecha. You’ll have your turn by then. Besides, our new Mechas are also being researched, and Biological Armor will undergo an upgrade. Can’t rush these things, and every type of Mecha has its unique use, none can be spared,”
Miao Lun rolled his eyes, Biological Armor and Spider Main Battle Mecha were like infantry versus tanks, each having their place on the battlefield.
Hearing this, Cao Yangchun was satisfied, eagerly rubbing his hands together, thinking of playing with the Spider Mecha once the war was over.
During their casual conversation, Hao Guang suddenly received a message.
“There’s movement from the Siamese Heavy Armored Division, Fish on the hook.”
Hao Guang’s face revealed an excited smile.
“It seems the plan went smoothly,”
Miao Lun clapped his hands together, his face equally excited.
“No time to delay, let’s take action according to plan. We’ll choose a location near the Durand Highway, this area is very open, they will like it,”
Hao Guang squinted his eyes and turned to issue the combat command to his deputy staff officer.
“Notify all Spider Mecha, prepare the incendiary bombs, and conduct the final check,”
“Yes.”
Once the order was issued, the entire First Mecha Combat Brigade quickly became busy.
Fuel trucks filled up the Mecha with diesel, including the external auxiliary fuel tanks.
Ground support staff, driving ammunition supply vehicles, used special electric chain winches to transport rows of ammunition belts into the Spider Main Battle Mecha.
Mechanics began their final checks on the Mecha to eliminate any potential hazards, ensuring the Mecha were in perfect condition for the strike.
This logistical support for each Spider Main Battle Mecha consisted of a mechanical team, two ordnance personnel, a radio operator, an electric instrument specialist, and others who cooperated with one another, providing refueling, air-conditioning, ammunition delivery, and emergency repair vehicles, amounting to seven or eight vehicles per Mecha.
“Report, everything is normal outside, no surveillance detected,”
When the First Mecha Combat Brigade was ready, Hao Guang nodded upon hearing the report from his adjutant and waved his hand grandly, “All Mecha, follow me out.”
One by one, the battle-ready Mecha weighing hundreds of tons emerged majestically, marching out from the depths of the mining area onto the surface.
The quiet, late-night mining site first unleashed the Spider Mecha as reconnaissance forces, each releasing three Eye Worms.
These Eye Worms, each with six pairs of wings as thin as cicada wings, flew a thousand meters high, sharing visuals with the Mecha drivers, and the internal Biological Radar activated.
The leading Mecha, on the tops of the Spider Mecha, raised their biological photovoltaic turrets.
The backpack-style turrets even raised a flag. It was an unmanned drone jammer enchanted by Han Ruyan, with jamming signals emerging from inside. The flag was designed in the style of the Chan Country national flag but was actually the modified Soul Summoning Banner, a gadget usually assigned across many units of the Jieke Group.
One after another, the Spider Main Battle Mecha moved quickly towards the prearranged site.
Half an hour later, the whole Mechanical Army stopped; they had reached a relatively flat and open area.

Subsequently, the Spider Main Battle Mecha moved their long legs, first lifting and cutting the turf before quickly digging pits in the ground.
Once the pits were dug, the Spider Mecha began to shrink in height, burrowing into the pits, their eight metallic legs flipped over to gather and cover themselves with loose soil, burying themselves.
The process slowed down gradually, the Spider Main Battle Mecha shook a few times, and the sand and soil evenly covered them up. Finally, the last leg of a Spider also covered the surrounding lifted turf over its top, restoring the ground surface, and then it retracted underground.
After this operation, no trace of Spider Main Battle Mecha could be seen on the surface, including thermal imaging and satellites could not detect them, perfectly camouflaging themselves.
Just like the antlion in the animal world, which digs funnel-shaped pits in the sand to bury itself and swiftly attacks when ants approach the edge, pulling them into the pit to become food.
“Impressive!”
Miao Lun watched this scene, he hadn’t expected the Spider Main Battle Mecha to have such a tactic.
“We are the Spider Main Battle Mecha after all, a spider weaves its web and waits for prey to come,”
Hao Guang turned towards Miao Lun, his face serious, “Next, it’s up to your Steel Camp to lure the prey into the trap.”
“Leave it to me,”
Miao Lun nodded, and the two men shook hands.
Hao Guang walked back to his own Mecha, operating it to bury itself in the soil.
Looking out over the plain, no one would suspect that in this place, 132 immense creatures were lying quietly in wait, ready to deliver a deadly strike when the prey arrived.
