Chapter 591: Chapter 377 Trialists with a Collapsed Mentality_1

That evening, at the female dormitory of Capital Mechanical University.

A girl donning mechanical penguin pajamas, with deep brown hair and pupils, suddenly looked startled.

Because her mechanical assistant had just informed her of an unexpected message.

"Master, just now, someone has applied online for a challenge, seeking the temporary rights to use the ’CK Mechanical Research Institute’."

"According to the rules, Master, you need to go to the first battleground by 9:00 a.m. tomorrow to accept this person’s challenge."

On the desk, a mechanical penguin clock the size of a water cup reminded her.

"Who is it, being so boring," Ji Xie said with a look of helplessness. "The few guys who have the strength to battle me already have research institutes to use, it couldn’t possibly be them."

"I’ve looked up the student number, it’s a freshman, Level is level four, but it seems due to being a freshman, their Pet Beast records have not yet been looked into."

"Level four???" Ji Xie was even more speechless when she heard this.

This was just a waste of her time.

"I won’t go," Ji Xie said. "Let ’Mystic Mecha’ go to the appointed place on its own to accept the challenge."

In her Mechanical Space, an immeasurably tall humanoid mecha, white with golden lightning patterns on its body, immediately spoke, "Master, leave it to me to resolve. No matter who the opponent is, I shall bring back victory."

......

Early the next day.

Lu Ran, who sat cross-legged on his bed, opened his eyes.

He had practiced all night, all night transforming his Beast Training Space into Mechanical Space.

And the method? Lu Ran had found it online.

In this Mechanic Era where machinery touched every part of life, such knowledge was as common as the basic education taught in schools.

As Lu Ran’s learning ability had been permanently enhanced by multiple World’s Rare Clear Spirit Fruits and had received feedback from the Perfect Understanding Mr. Husky and the Mortal Path Six Paths Flower, he felt that he was close to success after just one night’s work.

"Six Paths Flower and Number 18 are really at it," Lu Ran said.

He entered the Relic Space. At this moment, Number 18 was still hand-crafting lightsabers in the Hell Realm while Six Paths Flower seemed a bit tired.

Now, Six Paths Flower regretted taking on this task for no reason.

Number 18 had a much stronger resistance to time than Mr. Husky, King of Sudden Death, and Dark Crow.

"Mechanical Life and Elemental Beings both have stronger resistance to time. In contrast, the plant and animal races are much weaker."

"Six Paths Flower," Lu Ran called out.

"How’s Number 18’s lightsaber crafting coming along?" he inquired.

He was ready to take up the challenge for the rights to use the research institute.

If it wasn’t ready, he would have to buy a lightsaber on his way there.

"The epic lightsaber is not yet forged," the flower responded.

"However, during the practice process, she has crafted over a hundred Rare lightsabers. I’ll just take out one for you to use," Six Paths Flower suggested.

"Eh," Lu Ran nodded.

"Alright."

Though the Rare lightsaber was slightly lower in quality, it would suffice; if he were to buy one, it would be of this quality at best.

Then, Six Paths Flower threw out a lightsaber.

To be precise, at present, it was a sword hilt.

And the material for this sword hilt wasn’t provided by Lu Ran to Number 18.

It seemed that Number 18 created it using "Mechanical Power."

A true hand-crafted lightsaber.

This was thanks to one of Number 18’s Racial Talents.

Racial Talent: Mechanical Generation (can create 3,000 types of basic mechanical materials with Mechanical Power).

These 3,000 types of basic mechanical materials, ranging from ordinary to Rare in quality, are in fact those common and frequently used mechanical materials that can be bought with money; hence, this talent is merely a convenience.

Such ability is also standard among most research-type or scientific research-type Mechanical Life, although the number of basic mechanical materials they can create varies according to the model.

Name: Aurora Sword

Level: Rare

Introduction: Can absorb light energy to unleash a dazzling light blade.

"Mr. Husky!" Next, Lu Ran summoned Mr. Husky.

"Woof?"

Because the room wasn’t very spacious, Mr. Husky was not in its normal state but had instead used its Overlord Talent to shrink down to the Husky size he had been before Lu Ran contracted it, a medium-sized dog.

However, even though it had shrunk in size, its appearance hadn’t changed much. It still looked like a Wind and Space Sword Domain Dog with a blue and white color scheme, and if not for its intelligent gaze, its silhouette from the back still looked quite formidable and domineering.

"Carry this." Lu Ran placed the Aurora Sword’s hilt in Mr. Husky’s mouth.

Species: Sword Domain Dog

Attribute: Wind, Ice, Space

Species Level: Middle-Level Overlord (High-Level Overlord)

"Good, the Species Level is a bit higher than that female student’s Pet Beast, but your Growth Level is 8 levels lower than hers. Overall, this battle is going to be tough, so you must do your best, Mr. Husky."

"And don’t end up like King of Sudden Death vs. Divine Tree Snake where you get utterly defeated."

"Woof!" Mr. Husky displayed a look of disdain; Lu Ran doubted its strength! It would remember this offense.

Watch as it cleaves through mechas with its sword!

......

Shortly after, within the campus of Capital Mechanical University, some people saw a handsome college student walking his dog in the morning.

It had to be said that as an Overlord being, Mr. Husky’s charisma was undeniable; its impressive and domineering appearance made many secretly take photos, hoping to see what kind of mixed breed it was.

"Unable to find any information—Playing hard to identify...?"

However, mechanical assistants belonging to some Mechanists failed to detect Mr. Husky’s species.

Some students didn’t believe it and tried to use energy detectors to identify Mr. Husky’s level.

But unfortunately, Mr. Husky’s Body Control was so skilled that it managed to suppress its energy level so low that to onlookers, it appeared to be a normal dog not exceeding Level 20.

To get the true data, mechanical detectors wouldn’t suffice; they’d need the Data Eye.

"Damn, that’s Senior Sister Ji’s Mystic Mecha."

But soon, something even more eye-catching appeared.

As Lu Ran and his group continued sauntering toward the battlefield, suddenly, a student shouted.

All eyes turned to the sky, where a massive and majestic mecha was flying toward the battlefield.

Lu Ran and Mr. Husky looked up following the commotion.

"Seems like it’s our opponent?" Lu Ran said, surprised.

This Senior Sister Ji was a popular figure at Capital Mechanical University, and the arrival of her Mystic Mecha attracted quite a bit of attention.

"Wait, Senior Sister Ji doesn’t seem to be on it. Where is her Mystic Mecha heading?"

"That direction, it looks like it’s toward the battlefield."

"I get it! Someone must be challenging her for the rights to use the research facility she’s using. It’s almost 9 o’clock, just in time for the challenge. I bet Senior Sister Ji is too busy, so she sent the Mystic Mecha to fight on its own."

"Sounds about right, but who’s the challenger? Can they actually win this battle? I hope it’s not one of those bootlickers who, despite knowing they’ll lose, still challenge her just to get noticed by Senior Sister Ji..."

"Definitely a bootlicker. After all, all those powerful folks already have their own research facilities; there’s no need to challenge for this one."

Mr. Husky: ???

Hearing the discussions of the passerby, Mr. Husky’s pupils shrank.

Bootlicker... Who are they calling?

It considered itself a noble Sword God Dog—what was this bootlicker business?

As it watched the passersby and the Mystic Mecha flying by, Mr. Husky quietly noted in its heart another grudge.

"This... the mechanic herself didn’t come? Then, this should make winning even easier." Lu Ran patted Mr. Husky’s head as he spoke. A mecha without a pilot was no different than a sword not held in Mr. Husky’s jaws.

......

It wasn’t long before Lu Ran arrived at the battlefield.

A few minutes were left before 9 o’clock, but the Mystic Mecha was already standing tall in the designated area, like a silent giant waiting for the challenger.

Besides that, the area was already surrounded by students from Capital Mechanical University, who’d come to watch the excitement after having breakfast in the cafeteria.

"Has the challenger arrived?"

"The name is... Passerby A, right?" Apart from the students, a mobile robot shaped like a phone was flying in the sky.

The students present didn’t find this mobile life form strange.

If Lu Ran used Data Eye to look at it, he would definitely be surprised.

Growth Level: Mobile Judge

Attribute: Mechanical

Species Level: High-Ranked King

Level: 70

"Here they come." Hearing the call of the Mobile Judge, Lu Ran, who had just arrived, led Mr. Husky through the crowd and into the battlefield.

"Who is this guy?"

"Passerby A, never heard of them."

"He’s not in the top 100 mechanics of the school, which means he’s not even among the best. Case closed; he’s a bootlicker for sure."

"Damn, he really brought a dog."

The student’s whispers from outside the arena could actually be heard by Lu Ran and Mr. Husky.

Lu Ran, Mr. Husky: ??

Enough already.

"Identity confirmed: Passerby A."

Meanwhile, the Mobile Judge glanced at Lu Ran and successfully confirmed his identity.

"Judge."

"There’s no problem in using this half-mechanically modified Pet Beast, right?" Before the battle officially began, Lu Ran inquired the Mobile Judge, and Mr. Husky stepped forward with indifference, flinging its head to eject a dazzling blade from the sword hilt it carried in its mouth!

Hum!

The Mechanical Light Sword Dog took a battle stance, its gaze locked on the opposing Mystic Mecha, its Sword Qi seeping out.

The Mobile Judge, Mystic Mecha: ??

The surrounding students: ???

"Woah, man, that’s just a dog with a mechanical lightsaber, right? That’s mechanical modification? How did he even get into Mechanical University? Must’ve been the back door!"

"Even a grade-school mechanic would think this modification is too slapdash!"

As Lu Ran had Mr. Husky assume fighting position, the surrounding students were dumbfounded—they would have at least considered Lu Ran to have put some effort into modifying the Pet Beast had he covered it in a mechanical suit.

"Although... but... It barely meets the criteria." The Mobile Judge also felt Lu Ran was too slipshod, but indeed, it was considered arming a beast with mechanical gear... just not fully transformed into a mechanical series.

"That’s good then." Lu Ran chuckled and then turned to the Mystic Mecha, "Let’s... begin the battle."

"We are ready."

......

The battle was about to start, and as Lu Ran confirmed his battle Pet Beast, the surrounding students were fully convinced that this student called Passerby A had come just to entertain them.

However, at this moment, a young man in short sleeves suddenly noticed that his buddy beside him was shivering and looking rather pale.

"Hey, mate, you don’t look so good. Everything alright? Should I take you to the school’s infirmary?"

The called young man, fair-skinned with blue eyes, jolted as if touched.

He blurted out, "That mecha is doomed; it’s Passerby A..."

He had the worst luck... matched with Passerby A. He had hoped to enter the Mechanical Era and, like President Aub, embark on the path of machinery, but now, facing Lu Ran, he felt like there was no hope for his breakthrough mission. He might even get taken down by Lu Ran.

This trialist from the Divine Eagle Federation, who had witnessed the League challenge matches and seen Lu Ran crush both second and first generation opponents, had his composure slightly crumbled.

"Ah? You know this Passerby A?"

"More than just know... Nevermind, I’m out." He looked at the Sword Domain Dog holding the lightsaber, his mouth twitching. No wonder it was the strongest four-generation being of Blue Star—it could stir up trouble in any era. Was Lu Ran planning to have his Sword Domain Dog undergo mechanical evolution into a Lightsaber Modified Dog in this Breakthrough Secret Realm? If he remodeled it based on its Overlord Clan foundation, it felt like there was a good chance for success!

President Aub, Divine Eagle Federation, danger! The Father of the Undead from Xia Country is here to snatch the limelight! This is... a national crisis.
