Chapter 605: Chapter 333: There’s a Traitor Among Us_2

The cannon arm seemed to be a top-tier offensive weapon. Based on its description, its power could be considered the pinnacle among alchemy weapons. A shot at full strength would be enough to cleave mountains and break the earth.

The Reactive Armor, on the other hand, served as an defensive shell for robots, capable of quickly repairing the robot at a rate of 2% per second, even if it was on the verge of being scrapped, it would only take fifty seconds to be fully restored.

Of course, the catch was that it couldn’t be under attack during the repairing process, otherwise the restoration would be interrupted and it would take ten seconds to resume.

Regardless, this was still a rare and incredible item of endurance.

Considering the Chaos Circuit and the Auto-aiming Circuit as well, it was no wonder that only the Ancient Power Furnace could integrate all these advanced parts together.

At this point, a new prompt appeared in the game.

[Old Goblin Barn, having finished the most difficult task, heaved a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling the aches in his back and waist.]

[Barn approached you, looking at the mine cart beside you, and said discontentedly: "What are you standing around for? Take the ore to the alchemical furnace, the components for the Ancient Power Furnace are still waiting for the ore..."]

["Take the materials over there, then come and massage me... I’m old and can’t stand all these things..."Barn murmured, issuing orders while lying down on a nearby lounge chair for a rest.]

"A massage... "

Mu You was bewildered, did his disguised form have this function?

Luckily, the game gave a prompt at this time.

[Your integrated ’multi-functional auxiliary robotic arm’ module contains programs for daily services such as shoulder massages. Now, you can choose to comply with the goblin’s commands and serve him, or you can take advantage of his defenselessness and hostage him to easily grab all the treasures. Your choice...]

"What the hell..."

Mu You was speechless. He had come a long way from a piece of junk in a junkyard, upgraded, infiltrated this crucial spot and now he had to consider taking the goblin hostage? Wouldn’t all his efforts be wasted?

What’s more, the Ancient Power Furnace had not yet been made, it was clearly not something any ordinary person could make. He still needed the Old Goblin’s craftsmanship. He could wait until the furnace was ready before making any move.

[You chose to obey the Goblin’s command.]

[Pushing the mine cart to the furnace in the distance, you returned to the Old Goblin’s chair, extended your mechanical arms onto the goblin’s shoulders. Shoulder massage program, activating...]

[Old Goblin Barn suddenly turned to you: "What’s going on, not enough energy? Why is there so little strength?"]

["You didn’t do it like this before..." The old goblin looked at you curiously, suspicion flashing in his eyes...]

"Rewind."

Mu You’s eyes twitched and he decisively hit the rewind button, adjusting his strength accordingly.

[As time returned to its course, you began the shoulder massage anew, applying a bit more strength this time.]

[With a ’crack’ sound, the old goblin’s shoulder blade was broken by your massage...]

"Damn..."

Mu You pressed the rewind button again, fine-tuning his strength once more.

This work required a lot more finesse than he initially thought.

It took more than one hundred and twenty rewinds before Mu You finally hit the sweet spot - the right amount of pressure that pleased his client.

[Your mechanical arms kneaded the goblin’s shoulders, old goblin looked comfortable: "This strength is good, keep it up."]

"Damn, so high maintenance..."

A frown crossed Mu You’s face, he suddenly felt the urge to ditch this thankless task and take the goblin hostage.

Just then, a new text prompt popped up in the game.

[...After closing his eyes for a while, the Old Goblin opened his eyes and took a blueprint from the table. From behind, you saw the title of the blueprint: Hand-drawn Structure of the Visible Area of the Eternal Power Furnace.]

[The Old Goblin studied the contents of the blueprint while enjoying his massage, muttering to himself: "...How was this made... It’s too complex, I can only make a copy at first... Wait for the components to be ready in a couple of days, then I can make the Ancient Power Furnace according to the blueprint, to power my Doomsday weapon..."]

"So that’s it..."

Mu You understood a bit more, it seemed that the Ancient Power Furnace was just a replica of the Eternal Power Furnace.

Judging from the blueprint, the Eternal Power Furnace was indeed in the hands of the goblins, but they apparently didn’t dare to disassemble the Eternal Power Furnace directly as they lacked the ability to restore it, they could only create a substitute based on the original.

Putting the matter of the Eternal Power Furnace aside for now, Mu You suddenly realized that he appeared to be stuck.

After giving the old goblin’s shoulder a massage, he suddenly requested a leg massage, then to fetch him tea and water, sort the components...

He was being treated like a housekeeper!

Mu You felt utterly speechless. He would rather be manufacturing components like the other assistant robots by the wall than doing these endless chores. At least when making components, he can leave it to run on autopilot, but currently he had to constantly monitor the screen, ready to fulfill the quirk requests the Old Goblin came up with.

But this was out of Mu You’s hands since he couldn’t seem to find an opportunity to leave.

It seems like he was forced to stay and work. Mu You could only comfort himself by thinking that once the Ancient Power Furnace was ready, everything here would be his. His current hardships were for his future self’s sake. Thinking this way made him feel better.
