It was only natural, of course.
With so many blue mechas and their cores absorbed, it would be a shame if I couldn't even do that to mere Russian "Superhumans"!
And with my body also slowly but surely absorbing the white mecha and its core, very soon my body would be as tough as a real mecha.
Still, I deeply lamented the fact that I had lost almost all of my red energy.
If I still had it, I would definitely become Mecha Emperor much earlier.
Without the red energy to facilitate the absorption, it was really slow going. The white mecha core within me was like a huge source of incredible energy which I had no way of harnessing.
After a full hour of futile effort searching for a trace of the red energy, I finally gave up.
When I opened my eyes, I was surprised to find that there were at least three thousand kids already gathered around me, and tens more were arriving every second.
I glanced at them and to my additional surprise, many were shooting strange looks at me.
