Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 342 Future Career Directions for Civil Engineering Guys
With a whopping 50 different types of combat vehicles, just hearing about it is enough to make players despair.

Not only does it put enormous pressure on players' financial resources, but various conditions such as inventory and mission completion also affect the collection of vehicles.

However, for Cheng Tian, ​​who has already collected 17 types of vehicles, this is not an impossible condition.

Rather, the current Armored Warrior instance is an excellent opportunity to significantly advance the mission's progress.

So far, among the dungeons Cheng Tian has experienced, only Metal Slug and Armored Warrior are the most suitable for fulfilling the hard requirements for title advancement.

However, compared to Armored Warrior, the chances of getting Metal Slug for free are obviously not high, so the focus should be on the present.

Through a private deal with Azrael, the whitewashed BOSS, Cheng Tian can symbolically pay the minimum price within the rules to directly exchange for the Rebel Army's vehicles. At the same time, with Azrael acting as an "insider," he can also steal some BOSS machines belonging to the Revolutionary Army (Rebels).

In addition, players can also steal each other's combat vehicles, which is very beneficial for vehicle collection.

Cheng Tian quickly thought about it in his mind. If he included all the types of mechs on both sides, and temporarily disregarded the combined armor of the Blood Armor Squad, there should be a maximum of 7 non-repeating mechs to collect.

However, these mechs are not just grunt mechs; they are all BOSS mechs with a base of purple rare + champion template combination, and the highest level can reach gold legendary + boss template.

Well, Cheng Tian even included Azrael's warlock account in the calculation.

In other words, Cheng Tian has already collected all the grunt machines in this world, and the difficulty of obtaining the vehicles that follow will only increase.

This even created a strong driving force that the main storyline absolutely could not fail—

Once the main storyline fails and the evacuation phase begins, all the vehicles he obtained in the instance will be forcibly confiscated!

The notification sound from the destruction factory drew Cheng Tian's attention away from his title advancement.

After deploying ten mechs, they finally managed to disassemble a drill arm component. In terms of appearance and attributes, it was almost identical to the regular "Death Drill." However, in terms of installation restrictions, it was expanded from "Armor Warrior Mech Only" to "Combat Vehicles." Theoretically, Cheng Tian's non-mech combat vehicles could also use it.

However, when Cheng Tian used the factory workshop and Gates to modify the vehicle, things just got worse and worse.

Whether it's the Drill Tank or the Iron Bull Tank, there's always a subtle sense of incongruity when these mech arm parts are installed, a feeling of unclear priorities. In addition, vehicles like the Batmobile, which seem to have many parts slots, are actually selective in terms of type.

For example, the leg tracks taken from the Varimes are simply not replaceable. Or rather, Cheng Tian's Russian-style repair methods alone are clearly not enough to combine the two properly. At least a senior technician's skill level is required to perfectly match vehicles from different worldviews.

Interestingly, however, this technological incompatibility was an exception in the case of the war elephant mammoth.

The Death Drill, which was originally installed in the position of the Vulcan Cannon on the left, was moving wildly in all directions according to the mammoth's will, as if it had gained another nose that could be controlled at will, and it was very flexible.

Moreover, it not only has a drill bit that can be activated at any time, but the drill bit can also separate on its own to expose the grenade launcher inside, and the reserve ammunition can be converted and replenished by Cheng Tian's innocent steel soul.

As the most popular part among customers in the mecha fighting black market, the Death Drill is actually a part made by Civil Engineering. Its cost is much lower than that of laser swords and the like. While it deals considerable damage, the sparks and blood that explode when the drill penetrates the mecha are also the scenes that the audience loves to see.

The addition of this item significantly increased the mammoth's melee attack capability without greatly weakening its ranged attack ability.

The war elephant mammoth was very happy to receive its new toy, while the Vulcan cannon parts that had been replaced were directly installed on the shoulder of the Metrorod by Cheng Tian.

However, just as Cheng Tian was immersed in changing into his mecha, the pursuers, who had come for the bounty mission, finally parachuted one by one onto the outside of the factory where Cheng Tian was located, aided by landing boosters. The Chosen Team on the Earth Federation's side received a suspicious message: "Mecha destruction factory attacked, wanted criminals suspected of being present."

Meanwhile, the Chosen Squad, belonging to the Leia Revolutionary Army, received concrete information that "the wanted criminal is at the mech destruction factory and requests support."

But without a doubt, both sides are targeting Cheng Tian alone.

However, this inevitably involves three rather important issues.

First of all, there is only one Cheng, and only one bounty. Should they cooperate to split the bounty, or should they find an opportunity to steal the kill and keep it all for themselves?

The next issue is the conflict between opposing factions.

Even if Cheng Tian makes enemies of the whole world, that's only Cheng Tian's own business. It's like he's going alone, but the two chosen teams are still completely hostile to each other!

Both sides acted and arrived at roughly the same time, and after passing some scavengers, they unexpectedly met at the factory gate, which was located in the center of the map and had its doors wide open due to internal fighting.

The final crucial question is... neither of them knew that the other was also there for Cheng Tian's bounty!
In Eileen's group's eyes, Husky and the others, as members of the Revolutionary Army, were still Cheng Tian's group.

In the eyes of Husky and the others, Eileen and her group of players were the culprits who attacked their stationed troops!
Upon encountering each other, neither side exchanged any intelligence. Instead, they immediately used their ammo and skills to create distance and instantly launched the second team fight of this phase.

However, this time, the combat strength of both sides is completely different from that of the first team battle.

The players on the Earth Federation side lost the Blood Armor Squad and also lost a Metrod, while the players on the Leia Revolution side only had three people left, all of whom were mass-produced first-generation mechs.

In terms of mech combat power alone, the players on Leia's Revolutionary Army are at a significant disadvantage.

However, there's another player on the Earth Federation's side who's a serious slacker—

Eileen, the student piloting the Elf.

The seemingly open and honest, but actually tense half-elf archer was already prepared to flee at any moment after his identity as a participant in the Twin Towers demolition was exposed.

Because she knew very well that if the Earth Federation failed to catch the culprit, Cheng, after the source of the legend was exposed, she would inevitably become a scapegoat and a punching bag to give the people an explanation.

In fact, the Earth Federation has already done it!
Arresting Cheng Tian can happen anytime, but the people of New York who are suffering now urgently need an explanation, and Eileen is the best explanation.

However, because the Chosen Ones team, as the 82nd Independent Squad of the Earth Federation, has the authority to carry out missions independently, Eileen took advantage of the opportunity to pursue Cheng Tian and escaped. Otherwise, she would most likely be either arrested and imprisoned or resisting arrest and being wanted by the police by now.

"Ok?"

At that moment, Eileen, with her exceptional eyesight, was pleasantly surprised to see a floating spherical crystal.

Then, the familiar golden sanction arrows were seen rapidly generating around the crystal, forming a golden arrowhead that pointed towards the factory.
