Mechanic endlessly amassing troops in the apocalypse

After dealing with this matter, Li Fei was in a great mood.

With Fox's connection, even if he doesn't get a large number of parts from him, he can at least cooperate seamlessly with him and avoid a repeat of the situation with Guicang Pavilion. Moreover, such a large corporation wouldn't covet the origin of his crystal cores. As long as he doesn't go too far by suddenly releasing a large number of attribute crystal cores, it's just a drop in the ocean for them.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hum a song.

Chen Zhe, who had just heard Li Fei's words, had also recovered and took the initiative to thank him: "Afei, thank you so much this time. How about it, Afei, do you want to have a late-night snack? It's on me."

Li Fei was in a good mood and immediately nodded, "Sure."

"Okay!" Chen Zhe then started dialing on his smartwatch, inviting all the official employees in the police station.

Li Fei was quite surprised by Chen Zhe's change, and the others were clearly the same.

Since this was Chen Zhe's first time treating everyone, no one refused.

In front of a barbecue stall.

The N7 police department's official employees gathered together.

Chen Zhe started by drinking several large glasses of wine, explaining what he had just done, and sincerely apologizing to everyone.

Lawrence, being a seasoned veteran, knew that things weren't out of control, so he quickly got up to comfort Chen Zhe, and the other officers also stepped forward to offer their condolences.

However, Li Fei could see that everyone wasn't really sincere; it was all just polite talk. On the contrary, Meng Nan, who seemed to bully Chen Zhe the most, was actually the most genuine.

We were full and satisfied.

Li Fei scanned the group of police officers.

The sheriff said the mole was among the temporary workers, but he knew the mole was definitely one of the permanent employees.

But he was too lazy to investigate. As long as he improved his strength, any conspiracy or trickery would be meaningless.

Increase your strength, increase your strength...

Without further hesitation, he now had 35,000 experience points and 25 ordinary crystal cores. This amount of experience was more than enough to learn professional knowledge.

Li Fei spoke directly: "Sheriff."

Lawrence, his face flushed from drinking, was arm in arm with the others. Hearing Li Fei speak, he slowly turned his head to look at him. "Wh...what's wrong, Xiao Fei?"

"Didn't you say last time that I could go to Horikawa Takeshi-senpai to learn about the profession of a mechanic? I was thinking I should do it now, since Horikawa Takeshi-senpai is here right now."

Then, he turned to Horikawa Takeshi and asked, "Horikawa-senpai, is this a convenient time for you?"

Horikawa Takeshi nodded expressionlessly. "I have no problem."

Seeing this, Lawrence made the decision: "Alright, we'll go. Everyone else, go home."

Li Fei nodded.

Horikawa's place wasn't far; it was just a short walk away.

"I'm back!" Horikawa called out, and soon the sound of wooden clogs tapping on the floor came from inside the door.

Then a woman in a kimono came and opened the door.

She habitually said, "Thank you for your hard work, Horikawa-kun."

Upon seeing Lawrence at the door, he bowed respectfully and said, "Mr. Lawrence."

Horikawa then introduced Li Fei, saying, "This is my wife, Yoshiko."

"This is Li Fei, our new temporary police officer."

We've exchanged greetings.

Li Fei then walked through the door.

Horikawa's house is not small, but the decoration is very simple.

There was also a picture of a cute girl hanging on the wall.

Jiamuzi walked over proudly and said, "This is my daughter. She is now studying at the Loren Psionic Academy."

"It's Loren Psionic Academy again..." Li Fei thought to himself.

At that moment, Horikawa came out of the room.

He was holding a thick stack of books.

"Li Feijun, this is the apprentice-level mechanic knowledge I possess."

Li Fei's eyes lit up, and he quickly tried to take it.

But Horikawa shrank back slightly and said expressionlessly, "However, you can only choose one book to borrow."

"Huh?" Li Fei was taken aback. This was not part of his plan.

However, although he was surprised and dissatisfied, he did not show any disappointment on his face.

Li Fei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, Senior Horikawa, Sheriff Lawrence, I don't expect to learn professional knowledge in just a few days."

"My main purpose in borrowing this book is simply to gain a general understanding of the basics of mechanics. Only by having a comprehensive understanding can I better learn new knowledge in the future."

Lawrence put down his teacup and praised, "You certainly have a lot of ideas; no wonder you've become so successful so quickly."

Horikawa sat opposite Li Fei and said calmly, "But mechanics' knowledge is too precious, and I can't possibly borrow so much from you."

Lawrence aptly smoothed things over: "Yes, the words may be rough, but the principle is sound. That's the truth. Xiaofei, why don't you choose one to borrow?"

Li Fei's lips curled slightly as he shook his head and said, "No, you've misunderstood."

"Hirikawa-senpai, I just wanted to browse through your books briefly, I don't want to borrow them."

Not borrowing it, just flipping through it once?

Both of them were stunned when they heard this.

Especially Horikawa, whose expressionless face showed a barely perceptible hint of joy, quickly asked:

"Li Feijun, do you really think that way?"

Li Fei nodded.

Horikawa took a sip of tea to calm his joy before continuing, "If that's the case, then I can indeed lend you all the books here."

After saying that, he added, "But I need to stay here and keep an eye on things, and you can't stay for very long. Can you agree to that?"

Li Fei nodded calmly and said, "Don't worry, I'll only need half an hour. But do you have any other knowledge here? I'd like to gain a comprehensive and systematic understanding of some knowledge, and there are some things I'd like to ask you. As you know, my master didn't teach me for very long, so there are many things I don't understand."

Hearing Li Fei say he would only read for half an hour, Horikawa completely lost his inhibitions and immediately nodded, saying, "There are two more books. If you want to read them, I can show them to you. As for the basic knowledge you mentioned, you can ask me. I will answer any questions I have."

Yay! The scam was a huge success!

Li Fei was overjoyed inside, but calmly said, "Then I'll trouble you to let me take a look at it together, Senior Horikawa."

"OK."

Finally, Horikawa took out two more booklets from the room and placed them in front of Li Fei, along with the previous five.

"Li Feijun, they're all here. Look, if you don't mind, I'd like to set a timer."

Pshaw, timing it, acting all generous.

Li Fei said nonchalantly, "It's alright, go ahead and time it. I'm not a person who goes back on his word. If I say I'll only watch for half an hour, I won't watch for even a minute longer."

Twenty-eight minutes later.

Li Fei closed the last book, his brow furrowed.

He sighed and said, "Okay, I've finished reading it."

Seeing Li Fei's trustworthiness and his regretful expression, Horikawa breathed a sigh of relief. "Alright, Li Fei-kun, is there anything else you'd like to ask?"

Li Fei sipped his lemonade, squinted his eyes and thought for a moment before speaking, "I want to know the power relationships between the various schools of mechanics, as well as their respective advantages and disadvantages."

The mechanic is different from other psionicists. Its system is too numerous and complex. Even someone like Li Fei, who has an experience point system, cannot guarantee that he can learn all the knowledge.

Therefore, choices must be made. For example, Li Fei does not want to learn the prosthetic mechanic.

The idea of ​​cutting off one's own arm to become stronger is simply impossible.

Moreover, as his physique strengthens, his body will be no worse than that of a prosthetic body.

Lawrence had drunk too much and started snoring. Jiamuzi covered him with a blanket.

The two of them lowered their voices.

Horikawa explained, "In general, the main combat styles of mechanics are cybernetic bodies, mechs, firearms, heavy artillery positions, and mechanical creations."

"Among them, cybernetic bodies and firearms are the most common styles. Other styles are too difficult to learn, but these two styles also have the lowest skill ceiling."

Mechs represent the pinnacle of individual combat power; mechanical constructs are the strongest legion-type psionicists; and heavy artillery emplacements, needless to say, possess power far exceeding that of any other psionic system.

"However, I personally do not recommend learning the later schools of thought. The further you go in these schools, the more knowledge you need to learn, which is not worthwhile."

Upon hearing the introduction of the heavy artillery position, Li Fei's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "Could you give me a detailed introduction to that heavy artillery position?"

Because he needs to build a powerful base in the apocalypse, this is undoubtedly his top priority.

Horikawa nodded and said, "Of course. Simply put, the heavy artillery position is an extreme output style that gathers all the output methods of a mechanic of the current level together, completely sacrificing mobility and inputting energy at any cost."

"Besides lacking mobility and consuming a huge amount of energy, this school of thought has another drawback: it is extremely difficult to deploy in space."

"The higher the level of the heavy turret, the more terrifying the reaction force. Very few ships can withstand this impact continuously. The largest warship known in the Taihe Federation, the Night God, can only carry one fourth-level super heavy cannon. That's why this school of thought adds the word 'position' to its name. They can only be deployed on planets, and some asteroids are not even possible. The conditions are extremely harsh."

Despite hearing so many shortcomings, Li Fei's eyes lit up the more he listened; these shortcomings were nothing to him.

Despite its high energy consumption, it possesses unparalleled faith points; despite lacking mobility, it can teleport heavy artillery to any location in ten seconds using an array; and despite its high recoil requiring deployment on a planet, this can also be perfectly resolved using an array.

This style is almost tailor-made for toads.

Thinking of this, his heart burned even hotter. It was a pity that this style could not be learned at the apprentice level, and he could only collect it later. However, if he had the opportunity, he would definitely learn it!

After calming down, Li Fei asked again, "I have another question about prosthetics."

"you say."

"If I don't have any knowledge about prosthetic bodies, and I buy a prosthetic body to install on someone else, will there be any problems?"

Horikawa shook his head. "There shouldn't be any major problems. A prosthetic body is essentially a weapon, except it doesn't benefit from the mechanical essence and isn't as powerful. There shouldn't be any other issues."

"As long as you can learn the technique of installing prosthetic bodies, you can install them for others. The technique is not difficult, and you should be able to learn it by spending some money."

After hearing this, Li Fei felt relieved. He realized he wouldn't need to learn about prosthetic bodies anymore. He could just find an opportunity to buy some prosthetic bodies for Wang Meng and then learn how to install them.

"Alright, Horikawa-senpai, I have no more questions."

Horikawa rarely smiled. "Then Li Feijun can sleep here. I happen to have a spare room."

Li Fei shook his head and politely declined, saying, "No need, I'm not comfortable sleeping in the same bed."

After saying goodbye to the Horikawa family, I returned to the repair shop.

Li Fei couldn't wait to examine the knowledge he had just learned.
