Chapter 600: Chapter 331 The Barrel Effect_3

Ignoring the private chat, Mu You decided to temporarily set the matter aside and returned to the game.

[You are wandering near the prison of Clockwork City...]

[You encounter a K-7 type Magnetic Guardian. This is a special Mecha created specifically for suppressing and hunting down prisoners. It is equipped with a ’Strong Magnetic Attractor’, which can efficiently recapture escaped prisoners from a distance.]

[Strong Magnetic Attractor: Can release a strong magnetic attraction on any object or creature within 200 meters. The attracted object or creature will uncontrollably fly towards you (If your weight is less than the attracted object, you will fly towards it.)]

"Strong magnetic attraction... this thing is not bad!"

Mu You’s eyes lit up. Although it’s not a weapon, it’s adept for pursuits, escapes, object retrieval, etc. The usage is flexible and varied. Just by looking at the description, he could instantly think of many uses for it.

[The Magnetic Guardian notices your approach and immediately shows a guarded posture: "This is a restricted area near the prison, you cannot approach!"]

[Recently, there have been frequent unexplained disappearances of mechanical beings in Clockwork City. This has attracted the attention of some residents. There are rumors of an invisible ’Mechanical Serial Killer’ infiltrating the city, specifically targeting combat Mechas, making every robot feel uneasy. As a result, the security in key areas of the city today has increased significantly compared to normal days.]

"Tsk, they’re starting to be on alert, huh..."

Mu You raised an eyebrow reading the text.

Over the past two days, Mu You has caused 31 overload incidents in the Clockwork City. Except for two times where he was a bit slow, and the other transportation robots beat him to it, the other 29 Battle Robots were disassembled by him, stripping them of their armed parts.

Now his backpack is filled with various high-quality alchemical devices, like Obliteration Hand Grenades, Face-Exploding Bug Manufacturing Box, Thorn Artillery Missiles, smoothbore floating machine guns, Sand Spider Nests, Advanced Combat Power Furnaces and more. The worst ones are of rare quality, and there’s no shortage of epic ones.

Essentially, he has backups for any weapon accessories that can be seen on the advanced robots in the city.

And now, the text specially mentioned that the goblins are starting to be on alert... it seems like it’s time to step back.

But, firstly, he needs to complete this job.

[The Magnetic Guardian sees you approaching and immediately raises the Strong Magnetic Attractor, commanding you to stop and submit to inspection!]

"Big guy, your weapon is nice, but in a bit, it will be mine!"

Mu You was unconcerned. The benign looking small frame of a transport robot gives people a sense of underestimating the enemy.

[You suddenly use the Old-fashioned Freezing Device on the Magnetic Guardian.]

[Seeing the Magnetic Guardian is frozen, you take out the Overload Energy Pen...]

...

What follows is the standard way of handling things. Mu You had grown adept at it.

After a while, two Guard Robots rushed to the fight, and a battle broke out. In the end, the Magnetic Guardian fell to the many.

Mu You immediately appeared, carried the body, and ran off.

[You have disassembled the Magnetic Guardian. You have obtained the ’Strong Magnetic Attractor’.]

With the item in hand, Mu You decided to merge it without hesitation.

Then a prompt appeared.

[Merge failed. Your Mecha’s current Power Furnace is no longer able to accommodate higher-level components.]

"Failed again..."

Mu You frowned. At present, the Power Furnace on him is an ’Advanced Combat Power Furnace’, which is the best Power Furnace he could find citywide.

However, even so, this Power Furnace’s power could only ensure the carrying of rare parts all over the body. At most, it can carry two purple parts. Any more and it won’t be able to handle.

Helpless. This is the trouble of having too many good things. Nowadays, what restricts his power has shifted from advanced parts to Power Furnaces. Until he finds a more advanced Power Furnace, no matter how powerful the parts he collects, he won’t be able to use them.

Mu You now looked forward to the ’Eternal Power Furnace’ left by the Fool’s Ancestors. If he had this, he believed no matter how advanced the parts, he could surely carry them!

These past two days, while Mu You was making his rounds, he had also arranged for the Reconnaissance Beetle to wander around the city, sniffing out the whereabouts of the three mission items: the Eternal Power Furnace, Golden Gearwheel, and Ancient Power Furnace.

Unfortunately, perhaps the Eternal Power Furnace is too precious, and the goblins hid it very well, so no relevant information came up in the two days.

As for the Ancient Power Furnace, yesterday the beetle relayed a message from the rumor mill, saying that in the Goblin Laboratory at the south of the city, a Senior Goblin Engineer was attempting to create a new Ancient Power Furnace to power his new type of Mecha...
