The severed First Mechanical Arm was fully reassembled by Lin Yuan in less than three minutes, but this was not the end.
Although as a Mechanical Life, Lin Yuan felt no pain or numbness, nor did he suffer from the aftermath of bleeding, decay, or inflammation, the healing was merely superficial. The two hundred Health Points he had lost would not return.
Under normal circumstances, Lin Yuan's First Mechanical Arm could deliver an Attack Power of 40 points with a single punch, equivalent to roughly five thousand kilograms of force. However, at this moment, he couldn't even lift a Hunter's Longsword weighing about three kilograms with his First Mechanical Arm.
Moreover, the Civic Induction Transmission Rate was alarmingly high at 5, meaning that any command issued by Lin Yuan would take at least five seconds to be executed by the First Mechanical Arm. He was essentially incapacitated and would need at least a day to gradually recover.
If any further damage occurred to the First Mechanical Arm during this period, the consequences would be dire.
Fortunately, Lin Yuan still had three Mechanical Arms available, sufficient for him to carry out his next plan.
After quickly sorting through all the spoils and loading them onto his back, Lin Yuan commanded Claire to scout ahead as they prepared to return to the location codenamed 'Ocean King' at the Underground Base.
This marked the second phase of his plan and aligned perfectly with the first rule of his survival manual: always be one step ahead of the enemy.
In just a few minutes, five Mutant Battle Machines had taken off and were rapidly pursuing the direction in which Old Cat No. 1 had fled. Additionally, there were thirty hovering armored units and at least two hundred Hoverboard Controller Mutant Guards.
According to Lin Yuan's estimation, Old Cat No. 1 could buy him only ten to five minutes at most. Therefore, he needed to return to the Underground Base for the third phase of his plan: never let the enemy know what your next move will be.
Lin Yuan was already well-acquainted with this area from previous encounters. With Claire's spy drones scouting ahead and his Energy Engine operating at minimal output, it didn't take long for him to reach the entrance of the ruins again. At this point, only five minutes and twenty-seven seconds had passed since he escaped through that entrance.
Not too late!
However, the entrance was already blocked by seven or eight Mutant Guards, and Lin Yuan showed no signs of concealment as he suddenly burst forth. The Heavy Sniper Rifle of the Third Mechanical Arm fired rapidly, taking down three Mutants in an instant. He then revealed the Hunter's Longsword and charged forward like a gust of wind.
At that moment, for some reason, a powerful series of slashes executed by a Hunter flashed through his mind. Each movement was quickly replayed and simulated by his Intellect.
This process was incredibly swift, and Lin Yuan seemed to be inspired, locking onto the remaining Mutants who were calling for reinforcements. At the same time, his Mechanical Legs began to gather strength, with the Jumping Device beneath his feet maintaining a subtle yet stable output.
From a distance, it appeared as if Lin Yuan was advancing in an extremely graceful yet wildly ferocious manner. With each step his Mechanical Legs landed on the ground, it seemed as though he absorbed a certain amount of power, ensuring he continued to leap forward.
As a result, after just three powerful leaps, he was able to cover at least fifty meters with each stride, reaching heights of up to thirty meters. It looked like a simple motion akin to bungee jumping, but in reality, it was incredibly fast. This led to the fact that although the Mutant Guards unleashed their full firepower and wielded a Heavy Sniper Rifle along with three Micro Rocket Launchers, they simply could not lock onto Lin Yuan.
In just a few hundred meters, everything changed in an instant!
When Lin Yuan made his final powerful leap, he reached nearly sixty meters in height, and the accumulated strength peaked!
At that moment, even he did not anticipate that this method of accumulating momentum through jumping would allow him to reach speeds of one hundred meters per second in such a short time!
This was an alarming amount of Attack Power, especially as Lin Yuan descended from mid-air with the Hunter's Longsword in hand!
The Mutant Guard he had locked onto was caught off guard; he didn’t even have time to dodge. All he saw was a flash of blade light streaking through his vision like a meteor before Lin Yuan cleaved him in two with one powerful strike. The immense force sent the body flying over ten meters away!
The other Mutant Guards were also stunned; this speed and attack power were nearly comparable to that of a Hunter!
But Lin Yuan did not give them a chance to react. The moment his Mechanical Legs hit the ground, the Jumping Skill activated once more. With a 360-degree spin from the Waist Rotation Core, the Hunter's Longsword became like a moonlit whirlwind, executing an exceptionally beautiful spinning slash that bisected all remaining Mutants cleanly!
At almost the same moment, a familiar and pleasant notification sound echoed in Lin Yuan's mind.

This series of messages nearly made Lin Yuan faint with joy. Was this some kind of joke? Not only had he suddenly grasped two basic Combat Skills, but he had also jumped to level F6. It truly felt like he was soaring eight thousand miles in a single leap!
However, Lin Yuan wasn’t foolish enough to be lost in joy. He didn’t linger here; instead, he quickly gathered the equipment he needed, such as the Heavy Sniper Rifle, Firestone High-Explosive Armor-Piercing Round, Berserker Pistol, and several Micro Rocket Launchers.
Then, while swiftly escaping into the Underground Base, he contemplated how to maximize his combat power in a short amount of time. Moreover, the sheer volume of information from those messages was overwhelming, leaving him momentarily stunned! (To be continued.)
