"Beep! Detected Mutant Robot. Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia data collection in progress. Data generation indicates that the Carbon-Based Life on Earth Colonization Star has undergone a secondary mutation due to infection with the Super Worm Virus. Danger level: four stars. Recommendation: This species possesses extremely high speed and defense, and can control its mutated Mechanical Body. It is exceedingly cruel; approach with caution. Note: This Mutant Robot has a 100% chance of retaining full intelligence, making it highly dangerous. Maintain heightened alertness!"
To be honest, Lin Yuan was taken aback. He had never imagined that a Mutant Robot capable of retaining full intelligence could revert to the appearance of a normal human.
Without a doubt, the man from the so-called Sandrew Family was one of the high-ranking figures within the rebellion, the very one who had helped establish it. This was indeed a tragedy.
But regardless of Lin Yuan's sentiments, the Mutant Robot roared and lunged forward. This creature had clearly fused with the genes of the Mutated Fire Crow, making it far more powerful than the previous Mutant Robot. A shadow flashed past as it charged at him.
Lin Yuan understood the gravity of the situation and did not dare to hesitate. At the moment he fired his Heavy Sniper Rifle, two Hunter's Longswords crossed in a lightning-fast X-slash!
Indeed, Lin Yuan was now quite powerful. As an f6-level Mechanical Warrior equipped with an e1-level Energy Engine, he excelled in all aspects—sensing, judgment, and precision were all top-notch.
However, what surprised Lin Yuan was that the Mutant Robot completely disregarded his aerial X-slash, absorbing the blow with its head without any effect. The Hunter's Longsword failed to penetrate its defenses, and even the Firestone High-Explosive Armor-Piercing Round from his Heavy Sniper Rifle had no impact!
"Caw caw caw! You ugly freak, mechanical ghost! Do you think you're impressive? How does it feel to fall into your own trap?"
With a sinister laugh, the Mutant Robot shot out its dark claws like lightning. With just one swipe, it nearly crippled Lin Yuan's Mechanical Arm. Then it struck hard again, leaving Lin Yuan utterly defenseless!
Those two hits alone knocked off over four hundred of his Health Points, showcasing just how tough this creature was.
Like an old cat toying with a mouse, the Mutant Robot lunged at him again, swiping him several dozen meters away before he crashed heavily to the ground. That claw strike carried enough force to feel like facing an enraged elephant.
After being tossed around a few times, Lin Yuan's Health Points were already down to two-thirds. This was an absolute crushing defeat; the creature's defensive scales had an enhancement level of at least five points. In other words, its overall combat power was at least at e-Class or even E-Class Mechanical Warrior standards.
"Don't worry; I won't kill you just yet. I'll obtain your bloodline inheritance and then strip away your Identification Number. At that point, I can transform and take your place to manage s-5 Sub-base. And you? You'll be left to die forever!" The Mutant Robot advanced again, smashing all four of Lin Yuan's mechanical arms into twisted wreckage before quickly reverting to its original human form. It produced a circular box from somewhere and attached it directly to Lin Yuan's Energy Engine.
Inside that box seemed to be some strange device that instantly suppressed the output of his Energy Engine. No matter how much he struggled, it was futile; clearly, this was some kind of control device.
In less than three seconds of struggling, his Energy Engine was suppressed to 999%, forcing him into a state of sleep.
"Bring him to my laboratory and disable the alarms!"
Watching several Mutant Guards carry away Lin Yuan, the man smiled slightly and tapped his right hand on his left wrist. A virtual screen appeared, revealing a man who was none other than the one colluding with the Gatekeeper, named Ural. "Oh, my dear distant cousin, there's no need for you to come anymore. That damned Mechanical Warrior has already been captured alive. It's quite simple; you can return to Mars Base and report back to my wretched grandfather that the crisis at s-5 Sub-base has been perfectly resolved. Within a month, I, Demeir, will replace that unfortunate soul as the Executive of the Sub-base, successfully infiltrating Mechanical City. I believe our glory as the Sandrew Family will once again shine across the universe!"
Without waiting for Ural to respond, Demeir had already ended the call. He turned and gazed deeply at the observation platform, murmuring, "My dear sister, may your soul find peace. Humanity's desire for strength inevitably requires sacrifice. Your name will forever be sung in the epic!"
...
While Demeir believed he had everything under control, he was unaware that Lin Yuan, who had been carried far away, was not in the deep sleep he imagined.
The reason lay in the fact that the box could never fully suppress Lin Yuan's Energy Engine. Although the box was quite formidable, Lin Yuan's Energy Engine was also exceptional. In terms of quality, it could rival the e-Class Energy Engines found in Mechanical City’s Trading Platform because his Energy Engine was forged from a Dark Magic Core.
What exactly is a Dark Magic Core? It is a rare resource that can only be obtained by Elite Warriors of level d1 or higher, who must venture into distant Galactic Systems to battle the Dark Demon Race.
The Bieshandelu Family, hidden within the Solar System as a resistance group, comprised most of the citizens of Mechanical City, and many might never encounter even a single piece in their lifetime. Thus, it was understandable that Demeir was unaware of this matter.
As this continuous suppression maintained at 999% persisted for a minute, Lin Yuan's Intellect automatically utilized the remaining 0.1% of Energy Output to begin connecting to the Second Form's Energy Engine.
"Beep! Detecting that the First Combat Form's Energy Engine is in a suppressed state. Initiating Second Form's Energy Engine... Activation successful. Suppression ongoing... Continuing activation..."
From activation to suppression and back to activation felt like a tug-of-war. However, it should not be forgotten that the Energy Engine in Second Form was also refined from a Dark Magic Core. Gradually, it began to gain the upper hand; the box's suppression decreased from an initial 999% to 98%, then 97%!
When this suppression reached 97%, Lin Yuan immediately awakened from his slumber. However, he wisely refrained from making any sudden movements and instead observed his surroundings while checking his condition.
His Mechanical Body was in terrible shape; his Health Points were down to 85, and all four Mechanical Arms were rendered useless. Most importantly, two Mutant Guards were carrying him, while at least fifteen other Mutant Guards were on high alert around him, including two e1 level Hunters!
Thus, he dared not act recklessly.
Additionally, he had no idea where that damned Mutant Robot had gone. That creature had become so powerful after its mutation that its defenses were incredibly high and its attacks terrifying—truly impossible to deal with!
As Lin Yuan pondered what to do next, he realized he had been brought into a heavily fortified laboratory. The place was luxurious and filled with various equipment, none of which he recognized.
Eventually, Lin Yuan was placed on a large surface resembling a foam bed. As soon as he lay down, countless fine bubbles erupted and tightly enveloped his Mechanical Body, rendering him immobile. Clearly, this was a form of confinement.
However, Lin Yuan wasn't overly worried about this because according to data collected from the Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia, as long as he regained full power, he would be able to break free.
But therein lay the problem: he needed to eliminate that damned Mutant Robot!
This was not a whimsical thought from Lin Yuan, as he still had a full five Modification Points in hand. If he wished, his four Mechanical Arms could be restored to their original state in an instant.
However, if he couldn't take down that Mutant Robot, escaping would be a luxury beyond his reach.
"Perhaps I could try using that special Fire-Resistant Bio-Alloy?" Lin Yuan pondered. In fact, he had considered this option earlier when he was being beaten without the ability to fight back, but he hadn't had the chance. Moreover, this enhancement required a certain amount of time; if the Mutant Robot caught on, it would all be over.
The Fire-Resistant Bio-Alloy was a scale he had picked up from the nest of the Mutated Fire Crow. It was incredibly powerful, with a plethora of attributes such as fire resistance, ice resistance, physical resistance, chemical resistance, dark magic resistance, and more.
Initially, Lin Yuan had refined a total of one gram of this material. He had planned to obtain more fire-resistant Alloy to forge the Hunter's Longsword, but unforeseen events had derailed that plan.
Now, he feared he couldn't forcibly forge it onto the Hunter's Longsword due to the insufficient quantity.
The only option left was to forge it onto a dagger. With that thought in mind, Lin Yuan wasted no time and immediately used one Modification Point to repair his Third Mechanical Arm. Then, with a swift motion, he broke through the foam's blockade and retrieved the strange box that had been stuck to his Energy Engine. Instantly, his Energy Engine returned to its peak state.
Following that, Lin Yuan switched his Third Mechanical Arm to dagger-holding mode and began the forging process!
It proved to be quite challenging because each gram of this fire-resistant Alloy required 100 units of Standard Energy for refining. However, as he prepared to start the forging process, Lin Yuan gritted his teeth and decided to add a low-grade Dark Magic Core to the dagger. Although it felt like sheer wastefulness, he had no choice; he needed to ensure that he could break through that damned Mutant Robot's defenses. Otherwise, his life would end here! (To be continued.)
