Chapter 595: Chapter 329: The Wonderful Application of Divine Power_2

Mu You readily agreed. After all, this tree was supposed to be kept as confidential as possible. If the Elf Clan learned of it, there could be trouble. Hence, a confidentiality agreement was ideal.

The contract was signed overnight. As the Blood Emperor and his party left, they took with them the backpack containing the Knowledge Ancient Tree. It was said that it would be taken back to the capital and kept in an absolutely safe place.

Of course, all this was in the future.

The time goes back to noon that day. After seeing off Zhang Yang, Mu You took out his phone and returned to the game.

When he left to handle a case in the morning, Mu You specifically disconnected from the game. Now when he reconnected, his character was still in the alley where he had left it, with the Power Furnace still at full capacity.

[Your mecha steps out of the alley and onto the street.]

[It’s two o’clock in the morning in Clockwork City, the darkest time of night.]

[The streets are quiet. Most of the Goblins have gone to sleep and many of the robots are standing still on the streets, in a state of recharge. Only a few transport and cleaning robots are working overnight.]

[You step out of the alley and stand in front of the garbage recycling warehouse. The warehouse door is locked with a sophisticated mechanical lock, but there are no guards around.]

Sure enough, the warehouse was unguarded at night!

This was the time when the Goblins rested and most of the robots were recharging. The city was only keeping its basic defenses, which perfectly facilitated Mu You’s action.

[Hiding in the dark, deserted corner, you switch back to the vampire skin and use the Lock Heart Cave on the distant warehouse door.]

[With a click, the door lock pops open, revealing a crack.]

[You have entered the interior of the warehouse!]

[What stands before you are piles of discarded parts. These parts are garbage to the Goblins of Clockwork City, but for your nearly empty Mechanical Armor Skin, it is a treasure trove for rapid enhancement!]

What the text described was absolutely correct. With thousands of recycled garbage items, he would certainly find something useful!

Mu You couldn’t wait to start searching.

[One item after another passes through your hands, and the Omniscient Crystal in your hand constantly feeds back information about the items...]

"Mining Robotic Arm... Trash!"

"Engineering Circuits... Useless!"

"Undersea Equipment... Hmm, useful but not much."

"Explosion-proof Soldier Syringe... Huh? This is good!"

Just after a few searches, Mu You found something usable - the explosion-proof soldier syringe. Any object hit by this syringe would lose its ability to explode in the next ten seconds.

This item could be used for mine clearance, and it worked not only on machines but also on organisms! Especially in this Goblin congregation, where each Goblin basically had the capacity to explode, even many of their robots have a self-destruct feature installed. If a fight were to break out, this could come in handy!

Beginning with a prosperous start, Mu You was in good spirits and continued his selection.

Information about each item popped out of the game, and Mu You read them one by one. The useful ones were immediately replaced, the useless ones discarded.

However, when he really started to select, he realized that not many things were actually useful, perhaps one in dozens or hundreds.

Lucky for him, there were many parts on site and plenty of time. Mu You patiently selected, though monotonous, but seeing his parts improving one after another and the values on his panel gradually increasing, he hardly got bored.

After busying for three hours, close to the early morning in the game, Mu You finally stopped his selection.

Now, all eighteen interfaces of his mecha were replaced with the best parts from this warehouse.

Mu You opened the panel and took a look.

[Internal Components: ...]

[External Components: ...]

[Attack Power: 34.]

[Defensive Power: 105.]

[Magic Resistance: 0.]

[HP: 4500 points.]

[Remaining Energy: 11%, Estimated Available Time: 21 minutes.]

The six internal components haven’t essentially changed except for an update of the exoskeleton.

The more important are the twelve external parts, almost all of which are new, with the scorpion tail thrown away. The original crawler walking device was replaced with a pair of ’wall-climbing mechanical legs’.

These mechanical legs possess superior jumping and wall-climbing abilities, stably adhering to walls. More importantly, they are human-like legs!

With these things, finally, the overall outward shape of Mu You’s Mecha falls into the human category.

Among the remaining parts, the three most useful ones are the repair mechanical box, old-fashioned freezing device, and overload energy pen.

[Repair Mechanical Box: The main functional component of repair robots, it can consume energy to slowly repair various damages to mechanical bodies.]

This is equivalent to a mechanical version of the HP booster. It’s common knowledge that Alchemy Robots can’t recover with healing magic. Even the repair curse can only repair damage to non-magical parts. It’s powerless against internal damages to specific alchemical components, so it’s very necessary. With it, the Mecha is equivalent to having endurance.

[Old-fashioned Freezing Device: Main component of old frost robots. It shoots a freezing energy beam. The hit targets will fall into a frozen state, lasting 3 seconds for living beings and 30 seconds for mechanical bodies.]

When Mu You first saw the name of this, he knew he had hit the jackpot, because this thing’s name is actually blue!

That is to say, it is a rare alchemical device! It is also the only rare item among all the white and grey parts on the ground!

The reason why such a level of stuff appears in a junkyard, is because the robot it corresponds to was an original model of the previous generation, already discontinued, and incompatible with other robots, so it was discarded.

But Mu You isn’t picky, anyway, his Mecha can integrate anything. This strong control object, with a control time of up to half a minute, is considered godly equipment to him!

But this freezing device is not Mu You’s biggest gain today, the most amazing item is the third one!

[Overload Energy Pen: A must-have tool in a mechanical surgery room. It can release a blast of super overload energy when it touches a power furnace or alchemy circuit, making those power furnaces and circuits that have lost response reactivate. Each use consumes a demon crystal. (Note: The pen is only for mechanical surgery, if touched to the power furnace or circuit of a normal mechanical body, it will cause the circuit to collapse and the mechanical body to overload, entering a state of loss of control)]

Looking at the specs of this tool, it actually isn’t of much use, it’s just a mechanical equivalent of a ’cardiac pacemaker’, used to give those robots that accidentally deadlocked due to a short circuit a ’little shock’ and reactivate them.

To use this tool in combat is almost impossible because this pen needs to touch directly the power furnace or circuit, and both of these items are usually hidden in the safest position inside the Mecha. How could you possibly touch them in a fight?

However, this is just for ordinary people. For Mu You, it’s a different story: because he has the power of gods!

The effect of god’s power is to hit the bull through the mountain.

With the power of gods, he can cause damage to the alchemy circuit directly when this pen touches the outer surface of another Mecha, thus leading the Mecha to short circuit and fall into disorder.

And a Mecha in disorder will be seen as an ’enemy’ or ’mad patient’ by other Mechas in the city. Their way of dealing with patients is simple and crude, that is to attack, until the opponent loses the ability to move, and then send to the mechanical treatment room for repairs.

Mu You is in desperate need of combat equipment, but his Mecha’s combat power is too weak. He can’t win in a head-on fight with those battle robots, so he has to think of another way.

And the appearance of this ’Disorder Pen’ provides him with a means.

He doesn’t need to fight himself. If he takes a fancy to the parts of an outdoor Mecha, he just goes and uses the pen on it.

Then he waits for the robot to lose control, and the robots to fight each other until the other party loses its ability to move, and then he can effortlessly take the spoils.
