Mechanic endlessly amassing troops in the apocalypse

"You're not lying to me, are you?" Wang Meng's voice was full of disbelief.

"Of course," Li Fei nodded and said, "You should have heard Brother Yang Qi mention that I have a mechanical cat. The technology for making prosthetic bodies isn't much more difficult than that for mechanical cats, it just needs to give me some time."

Wang Meng laughed heartily: "Hahaha, I never thought I, Wang Meng, would recover one day."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Fei with utmost sincerity and said, "Brother, as long as you can cure me, my life is yours. From now on, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west!"

"That won't be necessary." Li Fei waved his hand with a smile and continued, "Brother Wang Meng, may I ask how you got these injuries, and why you came here?"

Wang Meng didn't hide anything and told the whole story.

"We come from a small village called Panshan Village, which is about ten kilometers away from here."

When the apocalypse broke out, everyone worked together to wipe out the zombies in the village. During that process, I accidentally crushed a crystal core, awakening a special ability, and was then elected as the leader by everyone.

"After the zombies were wiped out, the village was quite safe and had not been disturbed. But one day two months ago, people started disappearing from the village inexplicably."

"I led a group of people into the forest to investigate, and we found a huge snake nest at the bottom of the sinkhole. It was filled with snake eggs, and the most terrifying thing was that those snake eggs were bigger than a person."

Upon hearing this, Su Wan'er couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Li Fei glared at her, then said to Wang Meng, "Brother, you continue."

"Well... I judged at the time that there was a big snake in the forest, and we couldn't stay in the village. Once these small snakes came out, we would definitely have no chance of survival."

"So I led the team to retreat here. Originally, I just wanted to find a small town with fewer people to stay in temporarily. But I didn't expect that there was a group of Night Stalkers not far from here. I used all my strength and fought until my hands and feet were broken to fight my way out."

Li Fei's heart sank upon hearing this.

He had originally planned to cross the town and go into the jungle to establish a base.

But now that I've heard what Wang Meng said, it feels like the safest place is actually near this hotel.

At least here there are only zombies. Elsewhere, there are either monsters or night stalkers, and heaven knows how difficult it would be to survive.

Without giving it any further thought, Li Fei appropriately revealed an expression of admiration, "Brother Wang Meng is truly benevolent and righteous."

……

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Li Fei and his group returned to the first floor of the repair shop.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he gave his final instructions: "Alright, there shouldn't be any problems. After I go to the other world, remember to cover for me."

The two women nodded repeatedly.

Then, a flash of light appeared beneath Li Fei's feet, and a faint six-pointed star formation began to take shape.

Ten seconds later, he disappeared into the space along with his mechanical cat.

Repair shop.

Li Fei took off his blood-stained full-coverage light armor, cleaned it carefully, took out a bottle of cola he had brought back from the apocalypse from the refrigerator, sat on the sofa, drank it, opened the control panel, and silently began to plan.

Although the battle was treacherous and resulted in heavy losses, the gains were equally significant.

The experience points from hunting zombies alone amount to nearly 30,000.

The robotic cat played a crucial role in this.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a miracle weapon against zombies; it's impervious to bites and encirclement, and it's highly efficient.

The only drawback is that it lacks sufficient firepower, making it difficult to deal with monsters that are strong and have high defense.

He then began to count the crystal cores.

Twenty-five ordinary crystal cores were collected, and fifteen attribute crystal cores were collected as well.

Li Fei discovered that the probability of mutated zombies containing attribute crystal cores was quite high.

Even without attribute crystal cores, they will definitely produce ordinary crystal cores.

Without hesitation, he crushed and used the fifteen attribute crystal cores.

I then spent another 2,000 experience points to upgrade my quick reload and slide skills to LV5.

[Quick Reload Lv5: Reloads the magazine in 0.1 seconds. Consumes 2 Psionic Energy, 10-second cooldown]

[Slide Step Lv5: Allows for three consecutive slide displacements (up to 5 meters). Consumes 5 Spirit Energy per movement, with a 10-second cooldown.]

Panel data also surged again:

Because a significant portion of the crystal cores this time were of the physical attribute, Li Fei felt incredibly full after using them, as if he had inexhaustible strength within him.

Their vitality and spiritual energy were also enhanced.

It has now been confirmed that a Life Force attribute crystal core can increase health by 50 points, and a Spirit Energy attribute crystal core can increase spirit energy by 10 points.

The overall improvement is not small.

After using it, Li Fei turned his attention to the five mechanical cats.

At this point, their bodies were covered in scratches and dents.

The other cats should be repairable without any problem, but the mechanical cat that used faith points will be difficult to fix with my basic repair skills.

With that in mind, he disregarded his physical exhaustion and went straight to the materials room.

I started working on repairing the mechanical cat.

Several hours later, it was completely dark outside.

Li Fei stopped what he was doing, his expression not good.

It can't be fixed...

This mechanical cat is broken.

All the parts are cracked, and repairing them would be almost the same as making a new one.

Li Fei rubbed his temples with a pained expression; that was 60,000 star coins…

He could already imagine that in the future, just repairing the machinery would be a huge expense.

No wonder people say you shouldn't become a mechanic if you don't have money.

Call ~

He took a deep breath and began to repair the other mechanical cats.

These are easy to repair; only some parts are damaged and can be replaced.

He didn't stop working until dawn.

The available materials are only enough to repair three.

However, Li Fei did not want to put the team in danger again due to carelessness.

So he didn't bother to sleep and went out early to Guicang Pavilion.

I originally intended to purchase more parts for making the mechanical cat and repair materials.

But the boss told him that the energy cores were currently out of stock and he would have to wait for a while.

So Li Fei had no choice but to give up, go back and repair the last mechanical cat first, then build a pneumatic spiral machine gun, and finally fall into a deep sleep due to drowsiness.

……

drop drop~

In a daze, Li Fei turned on his smartwatch.

When I checked the time, it was already 8 p.m.

Let's look at the electricity again.

"Chen Zhe?"

He got up and answered the call.

"Hey, Zhe-ge, what can I do for you?"

Chen Zhe: "I heard from the sheriff that you have fully recovered. There's a mission with a lot of points today. Do you want to go on a mission with me?"

In the few days since joining the company, Chen Zhe has not assigned himself any boring patrol tasks.

That shows he's a kind-hearted person.

If the nice guy says he has a lot of points, then he definitely won't have few.

Points equal advanced professional knowledge!

Li Fei's eyes lit up, and he immediately replied, "Great!"

"Okay, wait for me at home, I'll be there in ten minutes."

"Oh, right," Chen Zhe emphasized on the other end of the phone, "Put on your police uniform and badge properly."
