Five minutes later, Lin Yuan stood before a metal door that had been violently torn apart. What caught his attention was not the brutality of the act, but the fact that the Enhancement Level of this metal door reached an astonishing 89!
Before entering this fortress, Lin Yuan had already noticed an interesting phenomenon: the massive Fortress Base, capable of housing tens of thousands of people, had an exterior wall with an Enhancement Level of only around 18. Although this was far superior to the hardest materials from a century ago, it seemed utterly fragile at this moment.
The problem lay precisely here. The metal exterior wall of the fortress had barely any Enhancement Level, yet inside, the Mechanical Warriors tasked with protecting humanity boasted a foundational Enhancement Level that was impressively high.
What did this imply? It suggested that these F1-level Mechanical Warriors were not created by the humans residing here. But why would these Mechanical Warriors willingly protect those humans?
Lin Yuan found this to be a rather absurd joke, akin to a tiger willingly accepting commands from a sheep.
Despite his confusion, Lin Yuan did not let it halt his progress. He quickly brushed it aside and began to move through the torn metal door, heading downward. Based on the Enhancement Level of the door, he deduced that the area below must be more central and significant.
He entered a long passageway that hinted at its former luxury through its decor. There were no lights; it was shrouded in darkness. However, Lin Yuan's Auditory Radar was unaffected by the lack of light.
Upon passing through the passageway, he arrived in a lavish room approximately one hundred square meters in size. Here, Lin Yuan discovered six Mechanical Warrior wreckages that had been cleaved in two by a single blow. Strangely, there were no human remains in sight; even the room's basic infrastructure showed little sign of damage.
Clearly, those who once resided here held significant status and were likely captured alive.
As Lin Yuan pondered this, he excitedly surveyed everything in the room. He was unconcerned about the fate of its former occupants; what captivated him now was this obviously futuristic and complete room. It appeared quite comfortable, yet many items within were unfamiliar to him.
Fortunately, this posed no challenge for Lin Yuan. He swiftly retrieved his eighteen repair and disassembly tools from a reserved space in his left Mechanical Arm and quickly installed them into the designated holes on his left mechanical fist. Then he seized an unknown object and began to dismantle it with rapid precision. During the disassembly process, his Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia continuously analyzed and refined its understanding—from basic material properties to forging techniques and assembly completion—seemingly quite effective.
"Unknown object, no records found, initiating analysis... Material origin: Galactic System Orion e89 Colonized Star 1 Earth. Analyzing material properties... Carbon-12 Alloy, Hydrocarbon compounds, Sulfur polymer aggregates. Forging technique: rough; potential items composed may include: hover cars, private spacecraft, prosthetic limbs, toilets, razors, eyeglass frames, artificial teeth among 19,865,372 possible items. Warning: material properties are extremely complex; automatic analysis terminated; Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia unable to discern."
"Dammit! If I had known, I wouldn't have relied on it!" Lin Yuan was not surprised at all. He had long understood that this so-called Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia did not know everything; rather, it generated analytical data based on his own memories and the basic attributes of the items he encountered. Most of the time, it merely served as a memory storage device.
Of course, in certain specific situations, it was more reliable than Lin Yuan's own analysis, such as when researching the intelligent mining vehicle.
Next, Lin Yuan quickly dismantled four or five unknown items in the room. When he finished disassembling a fist-sized, semi-circular object, he discovered a golden chip hidden inside, about the size of a fingernail. Almost simultaneously, a piece of information appeared in his mind.
"Ding! Discovered Level 1 Intelligence Chip, Quality: Defective. Can be combined with Mechanical Body's Intellect to become an additional Intellect branch point. Expected increase in Intelligence Level: 0 percent. Note: Installing this chip requires certain repair skills and carries some risk."
Seeing this information, Lin Yuan was taken aback. Such good fortune! But where should it be installed? Could it be placed anywhere?
Thinking this, Lin Yuan directly pried out the golden chip. As soon as his Mechanical Arm touched the chip, another piece of information appeared.
"Ding! Triggered Intelligence Matrix Mission. Condition 1: Upgrade Intellect to Level 10 Intellect. Condition 2: Assemble and connect one hundred Intelligence Chips at any position on your Mechanical Body. Upon completion, Intellect growth potential will increase by one point, Mechanical Body growth potential will increase by one point, Civic Induction Transmission Rate will increase by 0.01."
If the previous piece of information had only piqued Lin Yuan's curiosity, this one truly shocked him. He suddenly recalled that when he had disassembled those ten Mechanical Warrior Wreckages at the Warehouse Base, he had found a very sturdy box in a certain position on each of their bodies that he could not dismantle at all. At that time, he hadn't yet modified his three Mechanical Arms and had forgotten about those details after leveling up to F-Level and getting busy with exploration!
If that box contained Intelligence Chips, completing this Intelligence Matrix Mission would be a breeze! After all, there were still over five hundred Mechanical Warrior Wreckages piled up in the hall above!
Thinking of this made Lin Yuan's heart race with excitement. Although the Intelligence Matrix Mission seemed simple, increasing both Intellect growth potential and Mechanical Body growth potential by one point each was an enormous reward! It was worth noting that regarding potential in his current attributes, that section remained an unknown blank!
If these two points of potential could only be considered indirect rewards, then the increase of Civic Induction Transmission Rate by 0.01 was a tangible benefit.
This 0.01 represented time—specifically 0.01 seconds—meaning Lin Yuan's reaction ability would improve by that fraction of a second from its original baseline.
