When the meeting time ended, Mu You returned to the room amid the surge of black energy.
Mu You immediately contacted Lin Xue on the forum and informed her of the previous speculations about her competitors.
"Chains for disabled limbs?" Lin Xue was slightly surprised after hearing this.
"Yes, I guess this may be the danger you are about to encounter. If you have a fight with this person in the future, you must dodge as much as possible to avoid being hit by her." Mu Youyou.
Lin Xue received the message and paused for more than ten seconds before typing it out.
"If this is the case, dodge can only be avoided for a while, and external defense is probably more important."
"Um?"
"If this person's chain is something like my sickle, then for it to be effective, it must first come into direct contact with the body of the creature." Lin Xue said.
The Death Scythe is a prop she has been using, and of course she is most aware of the flaws of this weapon.
Such props seem to have incredible functions, but they are not invincible in actual combat. They have two biggest weaknesses.
First, there will be a cooling time after each effect, about one second. During this period, no matter how many times the sickle is hit, it will no longer take effect.
Second, the scythe must hit the body of a creature to be effective. If it hits equipment or armor, but fails to penetrate the armor and cause damage to the body, it will also not be able to leave the mark of death. To put it in layman's terms: it only counts if you see blood.
If the chain that Hongxiu used during pregnancy was a weapon similar to hers, it would probably have these two restrictions.
"...If only part of the limb is disabled, using some hard armor and equipment should be able to effectively protect the key parts..." Lin Xue analyzed.
"Armor..."
Mu You touched his chin. In short, he wanted to be as protective as possible. To be extreme, if you put your whole body into iron armor and turn yourself into an iron bucket, you may even ignore the chain!
Of course, this means that the load will be very high, and movement will be restricted in battle, which is equivalent to turning oneself into a sandbag that can only be beaten, and the gain outweighs the loss.
But when Mu You mentioned the iron bucket, he thought of the mecha skin.
If the chain really can only be effective on the body of a living creature, wouldn't it be completely defeated by his mecha skin?
This is not yet certain, but it is always a backup plan.
In addition, they also have an advantage, that is, he already understands Hongxiu's attributes during pregnancy.
At least in terms of agility, both he and Lin Xue's agility values were higher than the other's, so they would not be inferior in the most critical speed.
This matter can only be discussed to this extent for the time being.
After closing the private chat with Lin Xue, Mu You contacted Jiuyou again and asked them to take care of the shooter recently. By the way, he also revealed some information about Z World Walkers to him.
"Fingers? Armor?"
Jiuyou was a little surprised when he first received this information. Did the master mean that he had already met the other party?
"It's not certain yet. It's just a guess. If you accidentally encounter the opponent, you can try these two methods to counterattack." Mu Youyou said.
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, Master. I will help arrange things that are just smoke and mirrors."
Seeing that the other party had no explicit intention, Jiuyou didn't ask any more questions. In fact, they really didn't have time to take care of this z world traveler recently.
Immediately after the Burning Sun City, it was the turn of the Sunset and Twilight City. The dragon group and Ice Emperor's troops had been fully preparing for the next city capture in the past few days.
After arranging the shooter's affairs, Mu You switched back to the game and took a look.
In the game, the old man is still sleeping, and his character is also hanging up on the charging pile to make parts, and has nothing to do for the time being.
Mu You also hurriedly took a rest. After all, when the old man woke up, he might have to be used as a nanny again, and he would have no time to rest.
The following facts proved that his worries were not unnecessary.
Early the next morning, not long after Mu You woke up, the text in the game changed.
[...After the old goblin Barney woke up, he continued to look at the drawings and take notes while enjoying the shoulder squeeze of the assistant robot. 】
[The old goblin suddenly turned around, looked at the assistant robot behind him irritably, and ordered it to stop and go back to work. 】
[Then old goblin Barney looked in your direction, his eyes swept across the row of robots in front of the charging pile, and murmured to himself: "Who hammered my shoulder last night? That one was pretty strong... Thirteen The number should be 伱, right?]
[No. 13 is your mecha number. 】
[Obviously, the osteoporotic old goblin was impressed by your massage technique last night. Among the robots on site, only your strength is the most suitable for it. At this time, I hope to continue to enjoy your service...]
"emmm..."
Mu You had a dark look on his face.
He had tried his best to hide in the crowd, but he didn't expect that he would be caught out.
And the reason that was found out was that his shoulder-squeezing technique made the other party 'enjoy' it. This was the rhythm of promoting him to the position of chief internal affairs manager...
Mu You was quite speechless, but he had no choice but to do as he was told, otherwise yesterday's hard day would be in vain.
Muyou spent the next time busy.
In the game, he was busy satisfying the old goblin's various requests, but in reality, he was paying attention to the forum from time to time.
Today is the day when Lieyang City was born. The time Lion requested for support is around 12 noon, which seems to be almost the time.
Sure enough, around two o'clock in the afternoon, a system message suddenly popped up in the game.
[City of the Burning Sun has been successfully activated! 】
[The first city lord: Hellboy. 】
Mu You was stunned. The news was out, but Hellboy? Who is this? Lost the lion fight?
Mu You frowned and was not in a hurry. After waiting for about an hour, the message from the lion was indeed received on the forum.
"Wow, boss, I've lost my sword!" The lion came up with a crying expression.
"Who is this Hellboy?" Mu You was curious.
"One of my collaborators..."
"Oh? Does that mean they tricked you into tricking you?" Mu You asked.
"That's not true, because we signed a blood contract not to attack or murder each other within a year, and our cooperation was quite harmonious. After entering the city, we worked together and got rid of all opponents. But at the last level, we We agreed to compete freely without hurting each other. Whoever gets there first will be the winner. I was a bit unlucky. I was a little slow and was overtaken by others." The lion continued to display a crying expression on the screen, and his words were mixed. He didn't mean to blame his teammates, but instead frankly admitted that his skills were inferior to others, and he had nothing to say about losing.
Mu You touched his chin and asked again: "Is it because of what happened to the Z World Walker last night?"
The lion had secret skills at his side and enjoyed the magical support of others. His overall strength was definitely higher than others, but he still lost. Luck was certainly one aspect of this matter, but other factors may not be absent either... …
"Him? How is that possible! Boss, stop joking, I will lose the city lord because of his influence?" The lion immediately retorted.
"Really? Not at all?" Mu You asked.
"..." The lion was silent, and then continued typing after a moment.
"Okay, I admit, there was some influence. I hesitated for a moment at the last moment. I swear it was just a tiny thought that caused me to miss the opportunity. Alas..." The lion said He made a "a bit embarrassing" emoji, obviously still a little bit worried about this.
But he soon cheered up and sent another message.
"It's okay, boss. Although we didn't win the city lord, at least the city lord was firmly won by our side. Now I have also been assigned the position of deputy city lord. This is one of the contents of our previous blood contract. I actually I can be considered as one-third of the talkers, so I can talk about ordinary things." Lion said.
The blood contract signed by the lion and his collaborators is quite strict, clearly demarcating the scope of the three people's cooperation and the division of interests after success, so even if he does not get the city lord, his right to speak will be far greater than that of the ordinary deputy city lord. Although the Lord of Lieyang City does not have to listen to the lion's suggestion, it will definitely be used as an important reference.
With such a relationship, it will be much easier for people from their association to do things in Lieyang City in the future, which is also their original intention.
After chatting with the lion, Mu You contacted Hellboy as usual and informed Sky City about the flying height that he needed to pay attention to.
Then nothing happened in reality for the time being, and Mu You was able to focus back on the game.
In Clockwork City, the old goblin and a group of assistant robots were still working overtime to make parts, while Mu You was doing all kinds of messy chores throughout the process.
He persisted like this until eleven o'clock in the night, and finally, the message Mu You had been waiting for popped up.
[Old Goblin Barney is concentrating on operating the workbench, putting together various small parts...]
[The outline of a power furnace gradually takes shape. It is composed of countless gears and dense threads, connected in a complex connection that is difficult for you to understand. One ring is one ring after another. Any tiny shake may cause the entire Structural collapse...]
[After a while, Barney completed the last step of the operation. The mechanical arm transported the entire furnace blank and sent it into the alchemy pool for the final heating and shaping work...]
Mu You was very emotional. After being manipulated by this old man for two days, finally, this nightmare day was coming to an end!
Now that all the parts have been manufactured and the assembly work has been completed, all that is left is the final refining.
At this time, the old goblin no longer wanted to enjoy the service of rubbing his shoulders and beating his legs. He was restless and wandering in the hall. Muyou was relieved and stood by the wall with other assistant robots waiting to fish.
The refining process lasted two hours.
I waited until one o'clock in the morning before a message that the refining was completed finally popped up in the game.
[The fireproof mechanical arm went deep into the alchemy pool where the flames were rolling, and fished out an extremely hot stove. When it was exposed to the air, steam suddenly surged in the room. 】
[You see a liquid similar to magma flowing on the surface of the stove. It looks bumpy, but you can still feel the extraordinary power inside, beating as powerfully as a heart...]
[The robotic arm sent the furnace into the coolant on the side. 】
[The high temperature cools quickly, and the originally red furnace body gradually washes away the dirt in the transparent refrigerant liquid, revealing the smooth furnace body shining with purple light below! 】
[Ancient Power Furnace: A replica of the Eternal Power Furnace, it can provide unimaginably strong power and charging efficiency, and can drive up to three legendary accessories to operate at the same time. 】
[Old Goblin Barney saw that the power furnace was successfully produced, and his excitement was beyond words. At this time, there was only the last step left for the new mecha that he had been researching for many years. 】
["Quick, take it out!" Barney ordered you impatiently. 】
I'm coming!
Mu You was waiting for now. He held his pocket watch and retraced his steps a dozen times before finally seizing this opportunity.
[You rush forward and arrive in front of the cooling device before other robots. 】
[Your robotic arm reaches out and slowly takes out the power furnace from the cold and biting liquid. 】
["Yes, No. 13, bring it to me quickly!" The old goblin was very satisfied with your capable style, and then waved and ordered you to hand over the power furnace to him. your choice……】
[You refused Barney’s order! 】
[You chose to send the power furnace into your body and started the fusion process...]
[The fusion is successful, your power furnace has been replaced with: ancient power furnace, current energy remaining: 2%, recharging time required for full energy: 32 minutes, or direct investment of magic crystals: 124...]
"124, good guy..."
Mu You's eyes twitched when he saw it. It was indeed an epic power furnace. Its capacity was really extraordinary. It could eat more than a hundred magic crystals at a time, and the charging speed was also ridiculously fast.
In the original ordinary power furnace, one magic crystal could be filled with energy, while static charging required more than five hours.
As for the ancient power furnace, its capacity has been increased by more than 120 times, but it only takes half an hour to charge, which is more than 1,200 times faster!
["Number 13, what are you doing?" Old Goblin Barney looked at you in disbelief, his face quickly becoming extremely angry. 】
[The other assistant robots present have also realized your betrayal at this time, and are preparing to raise their weapons towards you...]
There was no time to slowly recharge at this time, so Mu You chose to add magic crystals directly.
[You put 124 magic crystals into the power furnace. Your power furnace is overflowing, and powerful power flows in your body. 】
[You release the disguise form, the shotguns in both arms appear, and fire first before other robots take action! 】
[Dense energy bombs emerged in the hall, flying towards all the assistant robots around...]
[The power of God, trigger! 】
[Chaos circuit, triggered! 】
[The assistant robots present are in a state of confusion, and all attacks have a 75% probability of being deflected...]
[The counterattack shoulder armor of the assistant robot was activated, and missiles were fired one after another. However, as soon as they came out of the chamber, they were detonated by the dense energy network of the shotgun. Everyone on the scene was turned upside down...]
[In the smoke of gunfire, you rush straight towards the old goblin Barney, trying to take him hostage. 】
[However, before you get close, a crystal square appears on Barney's body, covering his entire body, and Barney's figure becomes illusory. 】
[Barney has temporarily entered a state of exile, and all your attacks cannot hit the opponent! 】
"exile?"
Mu You was stunned. He was still thinking of holding the old man hostage and asking for the whereabouts of the Eternal Power Furnace. Why was he suddenly invincible?
Fortunately, the game automatically gives instructions at this time.
[Emergency evacuation device: A safety device prepared by the goblin clan for important members of the clan. It is automatically activated when danger is sensed, temporarily saving the character's body in a different space, unable to move, and remaining unable to be attacked. It will be automatically released after 120 seconds. 】
"There is such a thing..."
Mu You was stunned to see that this goblin tribe had discovered these weird things. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry to hold the other party hostage before.
It was hopeless to hold him hostage, and Mu You didn't force it. Anyway, he already had the things.
[A piercing siren sounded throughout the Clockwork City! 】
[You snatched away the 'Destruction' mecha staying on the workbench and ran towards the ventilation duct. 】
[The locked old goblin Barney's eyes are breathing fire, but he can only watch you leave. 】
The ventilation duct is another exit to the outside world besides the main entrance. After all, the thick smoke from alchemy in this laboratory must be exhausted every day.
[You crawl along the ventilation duct quickly and soon enter another building connected to the duct. 】
[However, when you climbed out of the pipe, you discovered that the building was surrounded by a massive number of mechas, three floors inside and three outside! 】
[Seeing your appearance, all the mechas opened fire at the same time! Colorful artillery fire and energy bombs intertwined into an airtight fire network, all pouring towards the building. 】
[The building collapsed instantly under the gunfire, and you were buried under the rubble...]
