Alright, all done. I look at my watch. I should be just in time to make it to Engi-con.
"Hey, John, I'm taking off. If you need me, I'll be at Engi-con."
I activated the Pupa. "Systems ready. Automatic system analysis commencing... all systems functional."
I made the Pupa lower it's head and I climbed on. I drove it back to the driving range of Engi-con. Today is the garage display of Engi-con, and I don't want to miss that.

"Guess this will be a long day, isn't it?", Renamon asked.
"Yep."
"Hey, John, I'm taking off. If you need me, I'll be at Engi-con.", Huey said.
"Got it.", John said as he nodded to Huey.
(If we really have to fight an 'Eater of Worlds', then we're going to need all the help we can get... I might have an idea.), John thought to himself as he stared at the cup of coffee in his hands.

"Alright, put your hands together for the last day of engi-con!!!" The announcer spoke through a microphone.
"Today, we are showing off the big and the bad, the very heavy weapons! Who is up first... Mantis! Whoever came up with Mantis, come up here and show us what it can do!"

"Wasn´t that creature like you Renamon?" Nera asked and then gestured like she was holding something
"You were like this small and like a small furball, like a small child" she smiled
Renamon laughed too "You just love kids aren´t you?" she asked and the Jackal nodded

Have you ever crossed the line between sanity and madness? You would be amazed by what lies beyond the fog..

A giant mechanical beast with two legs hummed to life as it stood up.
The fresh hydraulics could be heard as it raised to a full stand.
As soon as it came to a full stand, a man emerged from the hatch at the very top of the vehicle and began to speak.
"This mechanical marvel is called the Mantis. This powered exoskeleton is equipped with armor plating, energy shielding, and two weapon pods on each side.
The armor plating is made of a light-weight titanium alloy that is capable of protecting against even heavy caliber weapons and plasma, while the shields are capable of shrugging off bullets and covers every square inch of the vehicle.
As for the shield's power consumption, the Mantis has an experimental on-board fusion reactor that not only powers the shields, but the whole entire system.
As for the weapons, the Mantis carries an M655 20mm HMG/AM machine gun capable of shredding tank armor like cloth, and an M5920 35mm SGML/AM rocket pod module capable of housing five missiles at a time.
The machine gun can house up to 50,000 rounds and the rocket pods take rockets from it's storage bay and reloads the pods whenever needed, so one doesn't have to worry too much about running out of ordinance any time soon.
The one of the best parts is the fact that you can detach the "arms" and put a different weapon onto it.
So far, we're planning on making other attachments such as plasma cannons, lasers, railguns,... you name it, we're probably already developing it.
The gyro-system is so advanced that one could even stomp and jump without falling over.
The Mantis can house up to one person and is very light weight, despite the fact that its dimensions are 6x12x25 feet.
This beast is only 4,500 lb, so it's very easy to ship one out to where it's needed.
And that, my friends, is the Mantis. Any questions?"

"That's an interesting speech. But can you live up to your reputation? Bring out the test range!"
All of a sudden, a course emerged.
"Alright, we will test out the machine gun and the rockets as well as the mobility. Whenever you are ready!"

The Mantis walked into the testing site and the "arms" aimed forward.
"Ready for war.", the man inside the Mantis said.

"Alright! Close the gate and activate the internal cameras, it's time to go!!!"
There was a buzzing sound.
"First test is the mobility test. You are going to run through a maze. This test is not to see how fast you get to the end, but your action and reaction skills. Go!"
