Ignoring Lin Qing's nonsensical thoughts, Chen Luo was genuinely excited from the bottom of his heart.
As a young man who cosplayed at conventions, Chen Luo was not only a Genshin Impact enthusiast but also a seasoned otaku.
Therefore, Chen Luo had absolutely no resistance to things like mechs and Gundams.
Just like in the new version of Genshin Impact, even though Chen Luo only liked to pull for female characters, because Wanderer could fly and piloted a mech in the weekly domain, Chen Luo made an exception and pulled for this Anemo boy.
And now, Chen Luo was seeing a real mech in reality!
No, it wasn't a mech, it was a battle armor.
The five-meter-tall tiger-headed battle armor before him was ferocious and majestic in appearance. Every muscle of metal was constructed according to biomechanical principles, making one want to pilot it.
Acting on his thoughts, Chen Luo turned to Lin Qing and said:
"Miss Qing, how exactly do I pilot the battle armor?"
The battle armor before him looked like a giant tiger-headed warrior sculpture, with no visible cockpit entrance.
Moreover, Chen Luo unexpectedly discovered through his close-range perception that the interior of the battle armor was completely solid.
Upon hearing this, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across Lin Qing's face.
Lin Qing stepped forward two paces and took a completely black bodysuit from a nearby metal hanger.
Chen Luo found the bodysuit somewhat familiar; it seemed to be what Lin Qing was wearing last night when she appeared above the sky.
On the hanger, there were other similar bodysuits, but they were larger.
After grabbing the special bodysuit, Lin Qing nodded to Chen Luo:
"Mr. Chen, please wait a moment."
With that, Lin Qing turned and walked into a small compartment beside them.
Immediately after, Chen Luo heard the rustling sound of clothes being removed.
A moment later, Lin Qing emerged from the compartment, having taken off her long dress and put on the black bodysuit.
Now that Chen Luo was observing her up close, under the light, Lin Qing's face inexplicably flushed with a blush like rouge.
But remembering the important matter, Lin Qing endured the shyness and walked to the front of the "Snow Tiger."
Compared to the five-meter-tall alloy beast, the one-meter-seventy Lin Qing appeared exceptionally petite.
She stood with her back to everyone, spreading her arms as if preparing for something.
Under Chen Luo's expectant gaze, the power of the soul began to flow slowly from Lin Qing's heart.
As the soul power flowed, silver patterns gradually appeared on the originally black bodysuit.
These patterns were not the magic patterns Chen Luo was familiar with, but rather patterns resembling the circuit boards of his mother world.
As the soul power flowed, after a moment, the entire black bodysuit was completely illuminated with various circuit-like silver patterns.
When the silver light reached a certain limit, a flicker of silver light flashed deep within Lin Qing's black pupils:
"Snow Tiger! Equip!"
Within the giant tiger-shaped battle armor, a stream of information flashed:
[Soul Fluctuation Authentication Successful!]
[Confirmed as Battle Armor Pilot: Lin Qing!]
[Snow Tiger Battle Armor! Armed Mode! Activated!]
Boom!!!
The massive alloy battle armor instantly erupted with intense silver light.
This brilliance caused Lin Yue and Lin Xin'er to involuntarily close their eyes, while only Lin Qing and Chen Luo completely ignored this radiance.
Under Chen Luo's surprised gaze,
The tiger-shaped battle armor, which was initially a single unit, instantly disintegrated into the ground.
The incomprehensible special alloy, as if alive, under the pull of an unknown force, transformed into streams of silver-white torrents that surged towards Lin Qing.
The silver-white patterns on the black bodysuit now shone in harmony with these silver metal torrents.
These silver-white torrents instantly revolved and ascended around Lin Qing!
During this process of rotation and ascent, the silver radiance emitted by the metal torrents became increasingly dazzling.
But the entire process took only a few seconds.
When the light completely dissipated after a few seconds,
Standing before everyone was a battle armor resembling a living snow tiger.
There was no trace of Lin Qing anywhere!
Under Chen Luo's excited gaze, Lin Qing's voice came from within the Snow Tiger battle armor:
"Mr. Chen, this is how battle armor is equipped."
"This process requires using the soul power to activate the special combat suit, thereby triggering the battle armor's response."
"Without soul power, the battle armor is merely a giant metal sculpture."
With that, Lin Qing issued the command to disarm in her mind.
Boom!
The metal torrent reappeared, leaving Lin Qing's original position and reweaving into the original Snow Tiger battle armor.
Lin Qing, however, stood in place. Apart from the bodysuit returning to its black color, there was no difference from before.
Activating an A-class battle armor did not pose a significant burden for Lin Qing.
The power within the battle armor primarily came from a special nuclear battery.
During combat, the nuclear battery provided all the power for the special metal deformation. These special metals even possessed extremely strong defense and shock resistance.
Therefore, the soul battle armor, when in combat state, could be considered a perfect killing machine.
In combat, soul power acted more as a catalyst and an initiator. The actual consumption was quite low.
Lin Qing herself did not understand why, when she merely attempted to pilot an SS-class battle armor, it almost caused her to die directly.
It seemed that after an increase of two tiers, something fundamentally different had appeared within the battle armor, causing a qualitative change in the battle armor's load and its demand for soul power.
Lin Qing, having disarmed the battle armor, sighed helplessly as she looked at the excited Chen Luo:
"Mr. Chen, I am certain you are not a soul user!"
"When I first saw you, I sensed a great power within your body, but after a day of interaction, I am sure that power is completely different from soul power!"
Chen Luo's enthusiasm was not dampened by Lin Qing's words.
He put down Lin Xin'er, whom he was holding, took two steps forward, and stood before Lin Qing.
Looking at the young man who was still taller than her, Lin Qing's face once again flushed with a suspicious redness, and she couldn't help but turn her head away:
"Mr. Chen, if you wish to experiment, I can help you. There is a spare combat suit from my father on the hanger next to you; you can try wearing that."
However, Chen Luo had no intention of turning to get the combat suit. His gaze was fixed on Lin Qing, who was still wearing the bodysuit combat suit. His voice was sincere as he asked:
"Miss Qing, I am indeed not a soul user at the moment, so I will still need some of your help."
Lin Qing was stunned, but the young man so close to her made her unable to look him directly in the eye. She instinctively replied:
"Whatever help you need, please just say it, and I will do my best to help you!"
Chen Luo's voice, this time, carried a hint of a smile:
"Good."
The next moment, Lin Qing's eyes widened abruptly, and a familiar feeling returned!
