“Nice six new skill points. Great! Let get six more tanks then.”

He quickly accessed his skills menu then tapped the upgrade button for the spider tank multiple times.

<Spider Tank reached Max Level.>

“Wait, what?”

He checked his Spider Tank skill again.

“Shit! So I can only have five of spider tanks. Well, I should have expected that really.”

He was a bit disappointed but five of those spider tanks are still a hell of a lot of firepower.

He checked the new skill again.

“Mobile suit, what is it kinda like a robot armor? It’s also saying that it needs a pilot or an A.I. for it to work. Let’s find out then.”

For the 3rd time that day, he went out into the street and summoned his new toy.

Suddenly a 15 foot behemoth materialized. It looks like a cross between the hulk buster and the war machine in the iron man movie. But this one has thicker armor. The hatch on the torso area is open and there’s a pilot seat inside it.

He climbed up and noticed that there was nothing inside but the seat and the two white spheres on each arm rest. He quickly sat on the pilot seat.

The moment his ass touched the seat and his hands rested on the spheres, the whole canopy lit up and the hatch closed. The whole cockpit suddenly projected the image outside in a 360 degree angle.

Initially he was at a loss on how to pilot the thing. However, the moment he thought of making it move entered his mind the armor suddenly lurched forward.

When he turned his neck to view his sides the armor also responded. He tried to move around and confirmed that every move he makes is duplicated by the armor.

He remembered that this thing have some weapons too. Was thinking of a way to trigger it to fire when suddenly his field of view was filled with the weapons status? A crosshair also appeared prominently in the middle wherever his eyes are pointed.

Currently the secondary weapon: Heavy Laser was highlighted. All the info and status of the secondary weapon is showing up on the sides of his vision. He looked around and when he saw an old car 100 meters down the street, he put it in the middle of the crosshair then simply think of firing on it.

Suddenly, multiple red lasers arced towards it and completely tore the car into scrap metal.

With just another thought the system switched to the main weapon. He then looked towards another car fifty meters away from the scrap metal the fired his main cannon.

It only took a second for that car and the front of the building beside it to explode.

“Whoa! This is fun.”

With the feeling of invincibility, he continued playing with the armor all through the night. He walked the streets while the 10 drones continually scout the area he is heading. The 10 attack drones are following behind him. There are three tanks in front of him with the lead being controlled by the A.I. and two tanks following from the rear acting as the vanguards.

He decided to start his trek back home. Before he left the area, he set the bunker to self-destruct and watched as a huge fireball went up in the air.
