Chapter 115 Technology and Ruthless Skills [Fourth Update, Requesting Monthly Tickets]

"The last one is the Overlord. I hope you'll like the mechanical swarm I've prepared for you..."

Luo Gandao was startled.

What about me? Am I not human? Have I been exposed?

Three questions arose in his mind. He looked around, but no one seemed to notice his movements.

Ba Wang and Chu Xuan arrived at the research base in Jurassic World.

Looking at the results in front of him, he felt that something was not quite right.

Both the quantity and quality are actually quite good.

Sixteen different Mark series armored vehicles and forty-eight drones were placed around the perimeter.

In the middle are two larger objects.

One should belong to Lancelot of Logan Road.

The other is the Mark 44, known as the "Hulkbuster Armor," and its supporting system components, Veronica.

The only problem is... Overlord is from Arctic. To be honest, he doesn't think it's very auspicious to use something from the American Iron Man.

"In order to assemble the mechanical cluster as quickly as possible, I can only extend the existing technology... You know, the armor we used before was the Mark series."

Chu Xuan explained it this way: "There are a total of sixteen Mark armors made using secondary cores. Each has a different focus, and since they don't need to carry people, they are designed to maximize the loading of weapons and ammunition."

"Because of the intelligence of the secondary core, once you are connected, you will be able to understand its functions."

The secondary core is an object that can only be obtained through direct destructive scanning of the human brain.

The Mark armor produced in this way is actually a kind of mechanical life.

"Stark Industries has 48 drones in total. Due to their relatively simple functions, the core technology they use is somewhat less advanced. In addition to reconnaissance and machine guns, they can also perform some AR projections to confuse the enemy."

"what……"

With a thought, the white giant activated the indicator lights on all eighteen Mark armored vehicles simultaneously.

This feeling is very much like the mental chains binding Zhan Lan.

The Overlord gained access to their vision and the operational status of their various functions... To be honest, the amount of information was enormous. If it weren't for the secondary core on the armor sharing the computing power for him, he probably would have fainted.

This high level of intelligence means that the armor can "think for itself".

The Overlord doesn't need to issue very precise instructions; it only needs to tell the corresponding mechanical body what needs to be done.

For example... coming up to him.

The order had been given, and sixteen silver-white Mark armored vehicles took off and formed a square formation directly in front of him.

Raise your hand, lower it, land, turn around...

Uniform!

"cool!"

The feeling of being a legion commander made the Overlord immediately set aside his prejudices, and he began to like this system.

especially……

"Wolf heads! They're all wolf heads!"

Chu Xuan went to great lengths to gain the approval of the Overlord.

Since it doesn't need to carry people, there are actually no requirements for the shape or interior of the armor.

After retaining the basic framework of the Mark armor, the exterior paint, texture, or mask can be made however you like.

The number of these machines was also precisely calculated.

The current Overlord can only control a maximum of sixteen Mark armored vehicles or forty-eight drones. In extreme cases, the number can be increased, but the accuracy will be greatly reduced.

"It can actually play any image I imagine... Unbelievable."

After playing with the Mark Armor, Overlord controlled the drone to play an AR movie, praising it incessantly.

Every now and then, he would blurt out a few words in his hometown dialect.

Now, only that big guy remains, and it hasn't been shown yet...

The large white man stopped all operations and focused all his attention on the Hulkbuster armor.

Then, the enormous wolf-head armor began to move.

"Too heavy, can't fly... What is this transformation function?" Overlord was curious about the information Veronica had relayed.

Just like when you learn a new skill in a game, you might want to try it out once.

He commanded Veronica to transform.

At this moment, all the drones and Mark armored vehicles entered automatic operation mode.

They formed a cloud bat formation and began to transfer energy to Veronica using the energy crystals on their bodies!

"Good heavens, what kind of function does it have that requires so much energy?" Overlord couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. The Hulkbuster armor in the original version wasn't this exaggerated, was it?

"Don't use this function too often." Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses. "It costs five hundred reward points each time... I'll put it on your tab."

"..."

The overlord felt as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water.

Then, Veronica, who was floating above the Hulkbuster armor, began to disintegrate as a whole, with countless parts flying to the Hulkbuster armor to be assembled and transformed.

This is……

"Giant Steel Garurumon!" Overlord was overjoyed.

"It only looks like it; its functionality is far from complete. It can't fly, and its only attack method is its breath attack..."

Seeing that Ba Wang was eager to try, Chu Xuan immediately dissuaded him:
"Don't try it yet, it will consume the equivalent of one Grade A energy crystal each time."

Unfortunately, he advised against it too late...

A blazing beam of light shot out from MetalGarurumon's mouth!

……

"In short, I now owe the team 600 reward points."

After completing one hundred days of intensive training, return to the Overlord Bachelor Path of the Main God Space.

"You just used up six Grade A energy crystals like that?"

Even Fang Ge felt a pang of sympathy. He looked at Chu Xuan with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

—I was just saying it casually, how did you actually manage to create it?

"Luo Gandao, why are you acting so suspiciously? Don't you want the mecha anymore?" Fang Ge dragged the suspicious Luo Gandao out.

"Ah... I thought I had no chance since he just said 'last one'," Roger said, feeling wronged.

"I was lying to you." Chu Xuan turned his head away upon hearing this.

“Your Lancelot is finished. Except for some modifications to the power supply system, all other functions are exactly the same.”

"The Overlord's mechanical cluster can also charge your Lancelot using the Cloud Bat Array... it's just not very mature yet."

Roger didn't care about any of that; he was already content as long as Lancelot could drive!

He happily exchanged fifty days with Chu Xuan.

When Luo Gandao returned, his short hair stood on end, making it look like he had been struck by lightning.

This time, Chu Xuan accompanied him throughout the entire process, ostensibly to debug the data.

12 hours of operating the mecha, 12 hours of electrotherapy.

Since both Spider-Man and the Super Soldier needed to train, fifty days was far too short, so Chu Xuan paid slightly more for electricity.

This led to some issues with Luo Gandao's mental state.

Li Shuaixi waved his finger in front of his good friend and called his name repeatedly.

But all that came was an echo of "Aba aba~".

Fang Ge couldn't bear to see him in such a miserable state; what kind of new-era electric torture was this?

In the end, it was Ming Yanwei who used her last bit of money to repair Luo Gandao's body, and he finally returned to normal.

"There is only one item left to be processed."

If Chu Xuan hadn't mentioned it, Fang Ge would have almost forgotten about it.

"We're facing some funding problems due to the proliferation of monsters..."

"At the same time, my satellite imagery has detected traces of the [Mythical Beast Qilin]!"
