"Beep! Would you like to conduct high-intensity smelting on the Alloy Dagger? Due to the addition of a low-level Dark Magic Core in this smelting process, the results will be unpredictable! This smelting will take ten minutes and consume 100 units of Standard Energy... Smelting begins!"
Lin Yuan did not pay much attention to this information. He was feeling quite anxious, confirming the smelting while using his Auditory Radar to scan the environment around him. However, he ultimately decided to remain hidden in the foam; it was the easiest position for a surprise attack. He figured that the damned Mutant Robot would not expect him to escape so quickly.
As time passed slowly, Lin Yuan felt as if each minute stretched into an eternity. The dagger held in his Third Mechanical Arm began to emit a faint blue glow, which was quite eerie. In the center of this glow, there was also a beam of orange-yellow light, resembling a core.
Lin Yuan recognized this orange-yellow light; it was characteristic of the Dark Magic Core during smelting. He just didn’t know what kind of changes it would bring to the dagger.
During Lin Yuan's anxious wait, the Mutant Robot did not appear right away. So after ten minutes, the crescent-shaped Alloy Dagger, forged by G. Link Yong, had successfully completed its smelting process. There were no prompts indicating success, but the dagger had undergone a complete transformation.
The Fire-Resistant Bio-Alloy was truly remarkable; it had raised the dagger's original 15 points of Enhancement Level by 5 points in one go. Although its shape remained crescent-like, it had become sharper and now radiated a ghostly blue light, giving it a mysterious appearance.
What surprised Lin Yuan even more was that this dagger had acquired the ability to communicate with energy. In battle mode, as long as he input energy, the dagger would become even sharper and more fearsome.
When Lin Yuan scanned the dagger's material information with his Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia, a shocking attribute appeared.
"Beep! Detected Blue Light Energy Dagger. Intelligent Brain Encyclopedia data collection in progress. Data generated: Blue Light Energy Dagger, standard equipment for the Mechanical City Elite troops. Only e5 level or higher Elite Warriors are qualified to equip it. Such weapons are collectively known as Blue Light Weapons, forged from high-grade Biological Alloy and infused with a Dark Magic Core. The base Enhancement Level is related to the materials used and forging techniques. They typically possess certain characteristics. Furthermore, these Blue Light Weapons can be linked with the Mechanical Body Energy Engine. When energy is inputted, their performance can increase significantly, ranging from 0% to 100%. The higher the increase, the better the quality of the Blue Light Weapon."
"Beep! You already possess a Blue Light Weapon. Would you like to bind it with your Energy Engine? This binding will prevent theft by others and significantly improve energy efficiency. It is recommended that you choose an Energy Engine with higher potential since its quality will affect this Blue Light Weapon's performance enhancement!"
Another binding!
Fortunately, Lin Yuan had no time to hesitate and confirmed immediately.
"Beep! Binding successful between Blue Light Weapon and Energy Engine. Specific material parameters activated successfully: base Enhancement Level 5, fire resistance 0, cold resistance 0, physical attack resistance 0. It will possess sharper cutting and tearing effects. After energy injection, all parameter effects will increase by %, possessing a special effect called Lightning Tear. Upon hitting a target, it can instantly output 100 units of Standard Energy, releasing it within the target's body in a manner akin to Lightning Tear, increasing attack damage by +00%!"
...
Wonderful!
Lin Yuan nearly moaned in happiness after seeing the specific parameters of the Azure Light Dagger. He had almost missed out on this Blue Light Weapon! Fortunately, he still had some Dark Magic Cores in hand. Just thinking about refining all those Dark Magic Cores into the weapon made him feel incredibly proud.
Imagining the Hunter's Longsword transforming into a Blue Light Energy Longsword, the Heavy Sniper Rifle becoming a Blue Light Heavy Sniper, and the Firestone High-Explosive Armor-Piercing Round turning into a Blue Energy High-Explosive Armor-Piercing Round...
Alright, he shouldn't get too carried away; he only had nineteen Dark Magic Cores, and he had already consumed five of them.
With the fierce Azure Light Dagger in hand, Lin Yuan felt confident. He quickly restored the remaining three Mechanical Arms to their normal state using Modification Points and began to wait patiently. This time, he was determined to give that Mutant Robot a big surprise and an unforgettable memory.
He waited for a full six hours, but the Mutant Robot still did not appear. However, Lin Yuan was pleased with this delay because the longer it took, the more his Health Points could recover, which would be beneficial for his ambush.
Of course, Lin Yuan did not know that the reason Demeir had not rushed over to dissect him immediately was that separating a Mechanical Life's Identification Number from its bloodline inheritance was an extremely complex task that required thorough preparation.
So, taking advantage of this downtime, Lin Yuan began to search through Claire's memories to investigate the origins of the Sea King Underground Base. According to her recollections, his Mutant Robot brother was named Demeir, who along with another distant cousin named Uralmo, oversaw the construction of this Sea King Underground Base and conducted research on Earth Humans' genetic mutations, achieving significant progress.
Unapologetically, based on Lin Yuan's understanding and speculation, it was this kind of research by the Sandrew Family that led to the Energy Crisis disaster on Earth, ultimately ending the history of Earthlings. The Mutated Clones were also directly created and controlled by them.
Initially, Lin Yuan felt a twinge of pity for Claire and the cultured Demeir. However, that sense of pity had completely vanished now because their actions truly warranted a hundred hells.
Even though Lin Yuan was no longer an Earth Human, he showed no hesitation in delivering a fatal blow to the Sandrew Family as the Punisher!
Only death would be their final destination!
...
It wasn't until the fourth day, when Lin Yuan's Health Points had recovered to half, that the massive laboratory door slowly opened. A group of people stepped inside, with Demeir leading the way, accompanied by his distant cousin, Uralmo.
The third person was an old man wearing glasses, who appeared to be the one responsible for dissecting Lin Yuan. The other three were large Mutant assistants.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of dread. He had initially thought only Demeir would show up, but now Uralmo was here as well, which was not a good sign. According to Claire's memories, Uralmo had also mutated during the Energy Crisis thirteen hundred years ago, and his overall strength was likely on par with Demeir.
At this moment, Lin Yuan knew he could only fight with all his might.
Fortunately, his entire Mechanical Body was currently wrapped in dense foam, so he didn't have to worry for the time being. Demeir and Uralmo seemed to be at odds with each other, exchanging cold words and disdainful taunts. Perhaps this was an opportunity.
After a quick calculation in his mind, Lin Yuan swiftly determined his target: the Glasses Old Man. He didn't know if this old man was a hidden expert, and besides, he was the closest to him. It would be risky to bypass him to attack Demeir and Uralmo.
Just then, an opportunity presented itself. As the Glasses Old Man issued commands to clear away all the restraining foam, Demeir and Uralmo involuntarily stepped forward to take a look. Lin Yuan was only five meters away from them!
"This is the moment!"
Lin Yuan shouted in his heart. He couldn't wait for all the foam to be cleared before making his move; that would expose his condition!
In an instant, his Energy Engine surged into overdrive, outputting power at 60%. At the same time, the Azure Light Dagger synchronized with the Energy Engine, and a wild surge of energy poured into it like a raging stallion. The blue light flared up dramatically, extending its reach to half a meter—truly astonishing!
"Die, you old bastard!"
Like tearing through a sheet of paper, the Azure Light Dagger broke through all the restraining foam at an unimaginable speed. The Glasses Old Man didn't even have time to react before his head was sliced off as easily as cutting tofu—without any resistance!
The power of the Blue Light Weapon was evident!
But this was just the beginning. With the trajectory left by the Azure Light Dagger, Lin Yuan's Mechanical Body soared from the confinement bubble like a great bird, diving straight toward the astonished Demeir and Uralmo, who were five meters away!
Due to the suddenness of the attack and the close distance, Demeir, completely locked onto by Lin Yuan, had no time to evade. In a hurry, he raised his arm to block, but at that moment, his arm began to rapidly transform. However, he was facing a Blue Light Weapon that could only be equipped by Elite Warriors of Mechanical City at level E5 and above, and it was unleashing its full energy!
Without any suspense, Demeir's scaled arm was sliced into two segments by Lin Yuan's Azure Light Dagger, achieving a level of sharpness that could cut through iron like mud!
Following this, Lin Yuan pressed his advantage. The Azure Light Dagger followed closely, plunging once more into Demeir's chest before he could even mutate!
"Lightning Tear!"
With a roar in his heart, Lin Yuan unleashed one hundred units of Standard Energy in one go. The energy erupted from the Azure Light Dagger. Demeir attempted to counterattack, but in that instant, countless thick blue lightning bolts surged from the dagger like ferocious beasts. In less than two seconds, they completely tore apart Demeir's powerful body and reduced it to ashes!
Such power was truly terrifying!
This scene frightened Uralmo, who was preparing to attack from the other side, causing him to turn tail and flee, disappearing from the laboratory.
At this moment, Lin Yuan dared not linger. After swiftly eliminating a few Mutants with Hunter's Longsword, he rushed out as well. He needed to be wary of Uralmo gathering Battle Machines to launch an attack against him; his Azure Light Dagger could not withstand an assault from Battle Machines. Therefore, escaping was the priority! (To be continued.)
