The task allocation for Sir K150 was met with little dissent, and Lin Yuan was no exception. He instructed Thomas, Hal, and the others, and they immediately got to work. At this moment, the performance of all the Tanks was crucial, and during the previous breakout battle, nearly every Tank had sustained significant damage.
Anson was a member of Sir K150's mercenary group. Unlike those who repaired Mechanical Arms or robots, he was a descendant of Earth Humans, just like Thomas.
However, Anson's development path differed from Thomas's. While Thomas accumulated Merit Points to purchase Cell Vitality Modification Points, transforming himself into a powerhouse akin to a raging beast with a muscle Enhancement Level reaching 79—capable of delivering punches exceeding thirty tons—Anson had undergone a different transformation.
Anson was half Mechanical Body and half human; at least on the surface, that was how it appeared. In reality, his internal organs had been enhanced using Cell Vitality Modification Points. His most striking features were his limbs and head.
His lower body had been completely transformed into that of a giant spider, sporting eight legs along with eight powerful and agile octopus tentacles. These tentacles served as both offensive weapons and tools for repair.
Additionally, he had a large spider-like abdomen equipped with four omnidirectional Energy Cannons and two Mechanical Rotors. In critical moments, he could take off like a helicopter, which could be considered his Second Form.
As for his arms, they were entirely modified into Mechanical Arms. Above the elbow joint, they resembled human arms; however, below the elbow joint, they branched out into two fork-like Mechanical Arms each, resulting in four Mechanical Arms in total. Two of these were standard Mechanical Arms while the other two controlled weapons, giving them an eerie appearance.
But the most bizarre feature was Anson's head; it had been entirely replaced with a mechanical one. It remained unclear how his brain had been handled.
"Hey! Wooden Child," Thomas whispered discreetly on the team’s information exchange platform to remind Lin Yuan. Among the Earth Humans in Mechanical City, they were relatively well-acquainted with one another. "That freak Anson, nicknamed Jack the Ripper, is utterly deranged in his quest to become a Mechanical Warrior. I've heard he cloned himself over ten thousand times for modification experiments and only succeeded once with this Anson. Rumor has it that this Anson even killed the original Anson—truly unbelievable."
Lin Yuan chuckled lightly at this but quickly returned to work. The breakout team had ninety-six Tanks remaining; he and Anson would each handle half without much interaction between them. Moreover, he needed to prioritize repairing his three remaining Tanks.
For Lin Yuan, this was second nature due to his longstanding hobby. He always carried an assortment of scrap materials and various disassembled Parts with him. Therefore, whenever an issue arose, he could quickly rummage through his pile of junk and swiftly make repairs in no time.
In this scene, Thomas, Bison, and Fat Three were unfazed, while Hal and the unfamiliar Long-Range Sniper were left astonished and bewildered.
However, both of them were quite composed individuals, so they did not react excessively.
Of course, what Lin Yuan demonstrated was merely a fast repair speed, which was not particularly impressive, especially since Anson's repair and assembly speed was even quicker, thanks to his eight Octopus tentacles.
Each had their strengths; that was simply how it was. No one was a jack-of-all-trades, so there was no need for surprise.
Lin Yuan and Anson did not communicate with each other at all, working in perfect harmony as they each focused on their repairs. In the end, Anson's speed surpassed Lin Yuan's to the point that even Lin Yuan felt a sense of admiration—if only this guy weren't so unpleasant.
After some time without conversation, the Breakthrough Convoy finally arrived at the large Gorge where Bison had initially set up. The terrain here was indeed very complex, with countless ravines and layers upon layers of caverns scattered throughout, creating a spectacular sight.
At this moment, there was no need for hesitation. The Armored Vehicle Formation quickly entered the Gorge and occupied a favorable position. Then, aside from those left to guard, the remaining mercenaries immediately began searching and clearing out Spiny Worms. Meanwhile, K150's team had already started constructing a three-dimensional model of the internal caverns within the Gorge to prepare for building a fortress that would be easy to defend but hard to attack while patiently waiting for reinforcements from Mechanical City.
“Hey! Wooden Child, you didn’t say anything about that Pterosaur H- Remains to that guy, did you?” Bison suddenly asked Lin Yuan in a hushed tone.
“Of course not. What use would that serve? We don’t have time for such nonsense right now!” Lin Yuan replied casually.
“What do you mean nonsense? Wooden Child, do I look like someone who can't be trusted? Although Old Cucumber can be a bit shady, he’s not one to lie. If we find that Pterosaur H- Remains and combine it with your extraordinary assembly skills, do you think we could break through? Even drifting in space would be better than being stuck here with our heads blown off!” Bison exclaimed.
“Do you know its exact location? And stop dreaming! Didn’t you see the speed and attack power of those Thorn Reapers? A large Starship could be torn apart in an instant; how much more vulnerable is a Battle Machine? More importantly, I have no confidence in successfully assembling it. So just drop it! And remember, this matter is not to be discussed with anyone without my orders. If you can’t manage that, then don’t stick with me,” Lin Yuan said calmly. For now, he wasn’t going to stir things up because K150’s group still had over twenty members left. Plus, if they absorbed a few battered mercenaries like Crows, their strength would be formidable—almost half of the surviving forces would be under their control.
At that moment, if he and Bison were to find the Pterosaur H- Remains, the outcome was easy to imagine.
"Hey! Don't worry, Wooden Child, I'm not an idiot. I understand," Bison chuckled, no longer speaking further.
Next, everyone got to work, quickly assessing the situation within a few hundred miles. It turned out that there were indeed no Spiny Worms around, so they needed to swiftly construct a defensible base here.
The location was chosen deep within a vast cave at the bottom of the Gorge. All the Tanks drove inside, and after a quick design by Anson, a plan for a super fortress was freshly devised. (To be continued.)
