Mechanical battle beasts and true battle beasts each have their own merits.
When people choose true battle beasts, they have a strong purpose in mind, selecting the type that suits their needs. With this purpose, their functions can naturally be clearly manifested. Furthermore, the growth of true battle beasts is predictable, and there is usually ongoing anticipation. After all, battle beasts, like the All Races of the Universe, are also living beings that can continuously improve and even evolve throughout their lives.
In terms of compatibility, if the owner and the battle beast have a good rapport, their strength will also increase with the length of their contract. If luck is on their side and nothing goes wrong, it is possible for them to accompany each other until old age, forming a bond more like that of family rather than master and pet.
Mechanical battle beasts, on the other hand, are different. Their abilities are fixed from the start, and there are very few choices available. This type of combat equipment is quite rare and fundamentally belongs to the Tarros Red Dwarf; whatever they produce is what it is, unlike true battle beasts that offer a wide variety of options.
Additionally, once a mechanical battle beast is manufactured, its combat power is basically determined, with little potential for upgrades. The advantage is that it can directly enhance its combat power as soon as it is acquired, something that battle beasts cannot compare to.
To races that prioritize their combat power, this may not be particularly important, but for the Su Clan, it is evidently different. After all, gaining such power would immediately lead to an elevation. Just look at the expressions on these people's faces to understand.
“Mechanical battle beast, Mountain Rage!”
Even though it was not his first time seeing it, Kanagu still looked somewhat entranced.
“This is the most beautiful and powerful mechanical battle beast I have ever seen,” Kanagu first made a definition, then continued, “Mountain Rage is thirteen meters long, seven meters tall at its highest point, and three meters wide. The main material used in its construction is 'Deer Night Crystal.' Yes, that very rare Deer Night Crystal which is only produced in small quantities within the bodies of Deer Night Beasts. Its sturdiness goes without saying, and more importantly, it automatically repairs itself within a certain period after being damaged. This means that as long as the main framework is not destroyed, you need not worry about it getting damaged.”
The others listened in awe.
No wonder this mechanical battle beast looks so glimmering; it uses a living material. At the same time, one must truly admire the generous efforts of the Tarros Red Dwarf. Perhaps only they could gather so much Deer Night Crystal and use it to manufacture mechanical battle beasts instead of the protective gear more suited for such material.
“First of all, mechanical battle beasts can all be ridden, and Mountain Rage is no exception. Its interior can accommodate four people.”
Kanagu opened Mountain Rage's cockpit, and everyone saw that there were seats under the 'monster's' neck and rear, as well as seats on both sides of its abdomen.
“When there are passengers, the mechanical battle beast can be operated manually, with the front and rear positions controlling attacks, and the middle position controlling movement. Naturally, if it’s operated manually, the coordination will inevitably be a bit awkward. To achieve good results, a lot of practice is required.”
This point was clear to everyone except Ye Zhongming.
In fact, mechanical battle beasts are seldom manually controlled, as even the best-coordinated team cannot match the terminal control. The seats inside are better suited for riding.
“Like most mechanical battle beasts, Mountain Rage is armed all over. Its teeth, claws, and tail can all be used for attacks, and its head has reinforced armor suitable for charging and impact.”
As Kanagu spoke, he pointed at different parts of Mountain Rage.
