Starry sky, I can hear their secrets.

Ah Wei pointed at Su Jinyan and said.

Su Jinyan glanced at him: "What do you know, kid? Be careful not to talk nonsense or I'll sue you for defamation."

Tingyun smiled and dissuaded him, "Master Gongshu, I also think you have misjudged him."

"Why don't you just admit it? It's not shameful anyway. If you lose the bet, you'll have to pay out 5,000 merit points."

Master Gongshu, panting heavily, said fiercely, "Bet? Why not bet?"

"Even if the Emperor Bow Master himself were to come today, I would still bet this kid on this game."

Ah Wei, with tears streaming down his face, said, "Master, a little gambling is harmless, but excessive gambling is harmful to your health, and reckless gambling will lead to your demise."

Master Gongshu was initially somewhat hesitant.

After Awei's persuasion, his stubbornness kicked in.

Even if the Emperor of Bows and Fate were to point his bow at me today, I would still gamble.

Chapter Twenty-Two: General, take this punch!

The workshop for manufacturing and smelting gold.

After going around in circles, Su Jinyan and Fu Xuan and the others finally arrived at the Gold Melting Workshop of the Industrial Construction Department.

The thought of seeing Su Jinyan weeping bitterly made Master Gongshu want to roar.

Out of curiosity, Jingyuan led Yanqing to follow.

Since Su Jinyan helped him smooth out Yan Qing's overly sharp edge, he would find a suitable opportunity to express his gratitude to Su Jinyan.

Fu Xuan frowned slightly, clearly not optimistic about his bet with Master Gongshu.

"Ayan, where did you get this mechanical blueprint?"

Su Jinyan whispered, "That was the reward I received yesterday after Lord Fu Xuan knocked me unconscious with his white-socked little feet."

Fu Xuan's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "You impudent scoundrel, if you dare to spread this around, I will make you pay."

Su Jinyan couldn't help but shake his head. These days, nobody believes you when you tell the truth.

Fu Xuan looked up at her and asked, "Are you really confident that those aren't blueprints for a disposable power arm?"

"Do you know what five thousand merit points mean? It's enough to exchange for one hundred low-grade pills from the Pill Cauldron Division."

Su Jinyan chuckled and said, "Lord Fu Xuan, shall we make a bet?"

Fu Xuan was very shrewd and reprimanded him without any politeness: "Gamble, gamble, gamble."

"You've only been with Qingque for a few days, and you've already become obsessed with gambling, haven't you?"

Master Gongshu spoke up, "Boy, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Do you really want to make this bet with me?"

"We're doing this with the General as our witness, so even if you want to back out later, you can't."

Su Jinyan had absolute confidence in the blueprint that the system had awarded him.

Legend has it that Emperor Rupert I awoke from a graveyard filled with mechanical wreckage.

The first thing I did was to use the limited mechanical parts available to me to create a [disposable power cannon] and a [disposable power arm].

These two pieces of machinery are extremely destructive; even a reinforced iron gate is no match for them.

However, due to limitations in materials, they are completely destroyed after a single use.

To date, no one has improved or optimized the blueprints for the disposable power boom.

It's not that no one can improve it, but the materials required for improvement are all rare materials, and the cost increases exponentially, making it completely uneconomical.

His blueprint for the [Intermediate Mechanical Power Arm] is a significant improvement on the original design, with substantial optimizations to the strength and composite materials.

It can be said that such a medium-sized power boom, unless it encounters a large-scale outbreak of abundant ferocious creatures, will kill as many of those Kui Mu wolves as come.

It would be most suitable for a delicate and frail woman like Tingyun to use for self-defense.

Another thing is that Jingyuan happens to be here as well.

If we can make him realize the value of the intermediate power arm, we might be able to extract some merit points from him.

Su Jinyan said with a smile, "Master Gongshu, if you're worried about losing those 5,000 merit points, just say so."

Master Gongshu's forehead veins bulged; he was determined to win 5,000 merit points from this kid today and make him kneel down and weep.

"Come with me to the mechanical modification workshop. Today I'll show you my skills."

……

Gold smelting workshop, mechanical modification room.

The same mechanical parts can have completely different effects in the hands of different craftsmen.

Master Gongshu's craftsmanship is superb, so creating a small mechanical skeleton power arm is naturally a piece of cake for him.

The mechanical power arm placed before them had silver alloy arm armor, with the outer armor made of manganese steel alloy, and its size could be freely adjusted.

Using the right arm of a normal adult as a reference, the right hand can be inserted into the mechanical power arm seamlessly for operation, and the energy storage switch inside the power arm can be activated by hooking the finger.

Once the power source [Destruction Alien] is fully burned, it can provide the wearer with formidable power, enough to destroy an iron gate made of refined iron with a single punch.

Master Gongshu looked smug, gestured with his chin, and indicated to Su Jinyan to equip the mechanical power arm and try it out.

He personally designed the mechanical power arm; how could he not know it?

Apart from changes in raw materials and some modifications to details, the manufacturing process of this mechanical power arm is exactly the same as that of a disposable power arm.

You could say it's a disposable power arm.

Fu Xuan glanced at Ting Yun: "Feeling the pain? Five thousand merit points gone."

Tingyun's beautiful eyes suddenly shifted, and she said with a playful smile, "Lord Fu Xuan is joking. What's there to be distressed about?"

"My life was given to me by my benefactor, let alone five thousand merit points."

"Even if my benefactor wanted all of my assets, I wouldn't even flinch."

"Besides, the outcome isn't decided yet, opening champagne at halftime is a big no-no!"

Master Gongshu remained unmoved, and even felt a little amused.

He had already created the finished disposable robotic arm; the facts were right in front of him. Yet, Tingyun Jiedushi still believed her little benefactor's words.

I wonder what kind of bewitching potion Su Jinyan gave Tingyun to make her so infatuated.

Well then, what can I do when I'm too soft-hearted?

If this kid is willing to apologize to me later, then I might as well cancel the bet.

Information about the intermediate-level robotic arm was now presented to Su Jinyan:

[Intermediate-level robotic arm (right)]

[Quality: Rare]

[Equipment Requirements: Mechanical or Humanoid]

[Attribute Bonuses: Attack power increased by 500 points, critical hit rate increased by 20%, armor penetration increased by 5%]

[Number of uses: 3/3]

[Durability: 18]

[Power Source: Destructive Alien.]

[How to use: Simply flick your finger to activate the power-up switch and accumulate power.]

[The charged attack unleashes a powerful punch that propels the wearer forward, and the third charged punch deals additional physical damage and inflicts lacerations.]

Su Jinyan smiled and equipped himself with the intermediate-level power arm: "General, would you like to try out the power of my power arm?"

Only after letting Jing Yuan personally experience the power of the intermediate power arm will he be qualified to negotiate terms with Jing Yuan.

Jing Yuan smiled slightly: "Okay, what do I need to do?"

Su Jinyan's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he activated the switch, and the intermediate power arm on his right arm instantly began to store energy and accumulate power.

This punch, with unstoppable force, hurtled towards Jing Yuan's face.

Jing Yuan stood there with a smile, hands behind his back, unconcerned about Su Jinyan's charged punch.

No, that makes me look like a low-class, despicable villain.

So Su Jinyan changed his attack and aimed for Jing Yuan's groin: "Hey, General, take this punch!"

Master Gongshu: "?!"

Yanqing: "?!!"

Jing Yuan: “?!!!”

Are you sure the one who got punched by you was a general?

Only men can truly understand this feeling of extreme danger.

Jing Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he no longer dared to be careless. He hurriedly changed his fist into a palm and steadily caught the charged punch.
