In an instant, information flooded Lin Yuan's mind, helping him piece together the terrifying experience he had just narrowly escaped.
What delighted him the most was that he had finally advanced again, becoming an F4 level Mechanical Warrior. The process of leveling up was becoming increasingly difficult; in the past, Lin Yuan could easily run a few laps on the ground and achieve a 1% integration of Intellect and Mechanical Body. Now, however, his integration had only increased from 5% to 7%, taking nearly a year and a half of relentless effort. The progress felt slower than a snail's pace.
Lin Yuan had no doubt that the challenges and bottlenecks he would face in advancing to F5 and higher levels would only become more daunting.
This made the four Modification Points he had all the more precious, at least until he could find that elusive Shitty Mechanical City.
How to allocate these four Modification Points was something Lin Yuan needed to ponder carefully. Therefore, he took his time, first approaching the corpse of the Razor Beetle. Based on the experience with the Anzhela Venom Bee, he knew there were materials on this Razor Beetle that could be sold in Mechanical City, even though it seemed distant and uncertain for him at the moment.
Additionally, Lin Yuan was quite intrigued by the title of "Filer." He wasn't sure what its deterrent effect or significance was, but at least it sounded much more impressive than the title of Repairman.
With utmost caution and vigilance, Lin Yuan approached the Razor Beetle's corpse. After confirming there was no danger, he boldly began his examination.
He couldn't help but feel a wave of admiration; compared to the Anzhela Venom Bee, this Razor Beetle appeared to be a beautifully crafted mechanical object, exuding an artistic aesthetic. Its streamlined shell and evenly proportioned eight legs gave an illusion that it was a masterpiece of the mechanical age rather than a fearsome killer!
He wondered how such a weak Scarab had mutated into this terrifying creature during the energy crisis. What if it were a tiger? A mechanical tiger? A mechanical eagle? If humanity didn't perish, it truly made no sense!
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Lin Yuan raised his First Mechanical Arm and drove an Alloy Spike into the Razor Beetle's back shell. By assessing how deeply the Alloy Spike penetrated and cut through, he could determine that the Enhancement Level of the Razor Beetle's shell wasn't very high—around 4 points at most. This explained why even his rather mediocre Laser Gun could inflict considerable damage.
But why was this creature so ferocious? A single strike could deal over a hundred points of damage, even exceeding two hundred!
Soon enough, Lin Yuan's gaze fixed on those eight formidable legs resembling razor blades. There was no doubt that their Enhancement Level was significant!
Lin Yuan gently tapped one of the mechanical arms against the thigh of the Razor Beetle, and immediately, a stream of information rushed back to him.
“Ding! Acetylene Nucleic Acid Biological Low-Level Fiber Alloy detected. Please take note to collect it. Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia data collection initiated. Data generated: Acetylene Nucleic Acid Biological Low-Level Fiber Alloy is unique to semi-biological, semi-mechanical life forms. It is a living metal, abbreviated as Biological Alloy. This material is classified as e7 standard resources acquired by Mechanical City. The official purchase price is 4 Mechanical Coins per gram of Biological Alloy. Its uses include manufacturing Mechanical Warriors, enhancing Enhancement Level, strengthening the integration of Intellect and Mechanical Body, and increasing Civic Induction Transmission Rate! Note: Biological Alloy requires purification. Each gram of Biological Alloy requires 1 Standard Energy for purification. Would you like to proceed with purification immediately?”
The complexity of this information left Lin Yuan momentarily stunned. What shocked him the most was that this Biological Alloy was essential for creating Mechanical Warriors and could enhance both the integration of Intellect with the Mechanical Body and improve the Civic Induction Transmission Rate. Just these two benefits alone made him feel as if happiness was knocking at his door!
However, once he calmed down from his excitement, Lin Yuan fell into another state of confusion regarding the Energy Catastrophe that had once occurred on Earth. What exactly had happened? While he could somewhat understand the previous Anzhela Venomous Bee Honey, this Biological Alloy was different; it could be sold for 4 Mechanical Coins per gram and was related to the core of Mechanical Warriors—this was undoubtedly a high-end commodity!
All of this stemmed from that Energy Catastrophe, which had transformed life on Earth into these half-living, half-mechanical monsters.
After racking his brain for a while without coming up with any answers, Lin Yuan felt that as he continued to explore, the truth would eventually surface.
Setting aside these doubts, Lin Yuan faced another choice: should he purify the Biological Alloy? The cost was indeed steep—1 Standard Energy for each gram purified—and he wondered how many grams could be extracted from the eight legs of the Razor Beetle.
“Why not give it a try!”
In the end, Lin Yuan made his decision. He only had 4 units of Standard Energy left; it seemed like a lot but considering his daily activities consumed energy continuously, an energy crisis loomed once again if he didn’t find more sources.
After issuing the command to purify in his Intellect interface, Lin Yuan felt his Energy Engine begin to tremble slightly. A silver light then emanated from his mechanical arms and concentrated into the body of the Razor Beetle. Almost simultaneously, another piece of information arrived.
“Minor Biological Alloy detected. Purification estimate: approximately 11 grams can be purified, consuming 157 units of Standard Energy. Purification time: three seconds!”
As the silver light engulfed the entire body of the Razor Beetle, the purification process completed in an instant. When the silver glow faded away, the corpse of the Razor Beetle had completely vanished without leaving even a trace of ash behind.
"Beep, purification of Biological Alloy successful, quality: one star. Please choose whether to store it in the Energy Engine or to melt it onto the Mechanical Body. Note that each gram of Biological Alloy melted will consume Standard Energy!"
Upon reading this message, Lin Yuan was initially overjoyed, but then he became furious. This was outrageous! His energy was already on the brink of an Energy Crisis, and melting down these 11 grams of Biological Alloy would cost him a staggering 6 Standard Energy!
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yuan chose to proceed with the melting. No matter how costly it was, he wanted to see what benefits such an expensive Biological Alloy could bring him.
"Beep, please select Melting Mode. There are three options: Full Mechanical Body Balanced Melting Mode, Precision Targeting Smelting Mode, and Intellect Selection. Denying Full Mechanical Body Balanced Melting Mode; the quantity of Biological Alloy does not meet the standard."
Lin Yuan didn't expect it to be so complicated. He couldn't be bothered to complain any longer. After thinking carefully, he chose the Alloy Spike on his First Mechanical Arm. Since this Biological Alloy had the effect of enhancing Enhancement Level, it was perfect for strengthening that part!
