Mechanic endlessly amassing troops in the apocalypse

Li Fei stood up with an awkward smile. "Hey, sheriff, what brings you here?"

Lawrence did not answer, but instead gestured for everyone to disperse and investigate whether there were any other unusual circumstances.

After everyone had gone far away, he handed Li Fei a cigarette and said, "Xiao Fei, want one?"

Li Fei took the lighter and lit it with the lighter in Lawrence's hand. The two leaned against the car door, smoke rising in the dim moonlight.

Lawrence took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and gazed at the hazy horizon of the wilderness in the distance: "Xiao Fei, there's something you need to be mentally prepared for."

Li Fei turned to look at him.

"That madman whose psionic powers went out of control..." Lawrence paused, "is most likely after your master."

Li Fei's fingers, holding the cigarette, paused slightly: "How did you determine that?"

"He killed eight people in town." Lawrence's tone turned somber. "They were all acquaintances of Old Luo's. The killings were clean and efficient, clearly a targeted elimination."

"So as soon as I received the news, I contacted you immediately." He looked at Li Fei. "Just as I predicted, he did come looking for you."

I see... No wonder the police reacted so quickly, but they don't seem to know the inside story either.

Li Fei silently took a drag of his cigarette. Things were getting increasingly bizarre. The person on the other end of the phone was clearly his master's voice, and the other party even knew the contents of the suicide note.

But if it's the master, what would be his reason for doing this? I can't figure it out.

Lawrence sighed and patted him on the shoulder: "I was thinking that I had to avenge Lao Luo no matter what. But now it seems..." He didn't finish his sentence, but just shook his head.

"This matter will most likely be closed as a case of a psychic going out of control and committing murder. Even if we hand over the clues, no one will investigate further. The waters behind this are probably deeper than we think." His tone was grave. "Xiao Fei, regarding your master's matter, I suggest... we leave it at that. There are some people we can't afford to offend."

Li Fei nodded outwardly, but inwardly he felt helpless: the question now was not whether he wanted to investigate or not, but whether the other party was willing to let him go.

"Alright." Lawrence saw that Li Fei remained silent and assumed he was still caught up in his emotions, so he stubbed out his cigarette and patted his shoulder firmly. "I'm leaving now. If you need points, I'll try to squeeze some more out of the Terrorist Mobile Unit as compensation for this incident."

Li Fei's eyes brightened slightly, and he said sincerely, "Thank you for your trouble, Sheriff."

"We're all on the same side, no need for such talk." Lawrence waved his hand, turned, and got into the car. The convoy's engines roared and quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

As the red taillights completely disappeared into the night,

The smile faded from Li Fei's face, and he let out a long breath.

The cool night breeze cleared his head a bit.

Back at the repair shop, I splashed my face with cold water again, finally calming down and starting to sort out the whole thing.

There are too many suspicious points.

The mysterious person was only heard but never seen, making it impossible to determine if it was Luo Jun. Besides, if Master truly wanted to silence him, why wait until now? Why go through all this trouble?

Even if the other party really is our master, we can't just sit and wait to die. Gratitude is gratitude, but we should keep things separate. At worst, we can burn more paper money at our master's grave in the future.

Now that I think about it, the most likely scenario is that my master is in someone else's hands, and they are using the life of his friend to blackmail him.

In short, improving our capabilities is the top priority.

Li Fei's eyes regained their resolve.

Lock the door and you'll be transported directly to the apocalypse.

In the bedroom of the presidential suite.

The mechanical cats lay sprawled on the ground, covered in various injuries, four of which were completely destroyed.

Two of them were crippled by the mechanical gorilla's two punches, and the other two had their durability reduced to zero during their fight with the mechanical leopard.

Li Fei crouched down to inspect it, then shook his head: "The Mechanical Cat is still not suitable for tough battles. It's very effective against zombies, which are inherently weak and rely on sheer numbers. However, if the quality of the enemy improves, it becomes equally vulnerable, and repairs are troublesome and expensive."

After much deliberation, he finally decided that he would not make any more mechanical cats after this one.

The most important thing right now is to upgrade all the attribute crystals to the maximum level and try to reach the first-tier mechanic as soon as possible; that would be a qualitative leap.

In a corner of the room, the remains of the mechanical leopard and the mechanical gorilla lay silently. It was said that high-level mechanics could reverse engineer blueprints; these two remains might be useful in the future, so they were preserved for now.

With that in mind, Li Fei turned his attention back to the control panel.

After the last simulation of the mecha blueprints, there was actually one more combination of blueprints that we didn't simulate.

Now is the time.

I only have 2,000 experience points left, but that's okay, I still have 19 ordinary crystal cores.

He simply took out sixteen coins, crushed them, and his experience points immediately surged to ten thousand.

With only one chance, Li Fei dared not be careless and stepped out of the room.

The two women immediately came to greet Li Fei when they saw him come out.

They had also sensed the commotion in the room.

Su Wan'er even opened the door to check.

At the time, they only saw all the mechanical cats being teleported away, and then they saw the mechanical cats return covered in wounds. Both of them were very worried.

"Brother Fei, are you alright?"

Li Fei shook his head and said to Su Wan'er, "Wan'er, do you still have any lucky chances on the dice today?"

Su Wan'er nodded, "Yes, there are two points left."

"OK."

Without further hesitation, Li Fei directly threw the four weapon skill knowledge points into the crafting panel.

[The knowledge required for testing includes: Elementary Ballistics, Impact Mechanics, Elementary Materials Durability, and Elementary Principles of Mechanical Structures]

[Knowledge Alignment: High]

[Do you wish to consume 10000 experience points to generate and simulate the blueprint?]

confirm.

[Driving simulation in progress...]

The loading bar briefly appeared.

[Obtained the blueprint for the "Melee Kinetic Shotgun"]

Become!

Originally, Li Fei was feeling somewhat gloomy because of the mysterious person, but after the soul-stirring incident, he immediately felt much more refreshed.

The two women were quite curious about Li Fei's strange behavior.

Su Wan'er asked curiously, "Brother Fei, did you secretly do something to test your luck? Every time you ask me this, my luck points decrease."

Li Fei smiled and didn't deny it: "That's roughly how you could understand it."

"I knew it!" Su Wan'er had a "just as I thought" look on her face, then she thought of something and added, "But Fei-ge, actually, my ability... doesn't need you to be there to trigger it. As long as it's beneficial to me, it will automatically take effect."

Li Fei was taken aback, then looked at her helplessly: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"You didn't ask..." Su Wan'er stuck out her tongue.

Li Fei shook his head, no longer dwelling on the topic. He picked up the walkie-talkie on the table and tuned it to Wang Meng's channel.

"Old Wang, come up here for a moment."

"Roger that, boss."

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Su Wan'er opened the door, and Wang Meng walked in, looking somewhat reserved.

Having experienced the power and sense of wholeness brought by the prosthetic body, his awe of Li Fei has deepened.

"Boss, you wanted to see me?" Wang Meng stood ramrod straight.

Li Fei was sitting at the dining table eating a light meal when he saw him like this and couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't be so nervous. We're all family here from now on, relax. Sit down."

He gestured to the chair opposite him. Seeing Li Fei's casual attitude, Wang Meng felt much more at ease, chuckled, and sat down. The table was set with some simple meat dishes and beer, their aromas enticing.

"Boss, you're too kind." Wang Meng swallowed hard.

"Let's talk while we eat." Li Fei pushed a can of beer towards him. "I have some things I'd like to ask you."
