Exclusive sister card, unlimited evolution

Introduction: An ordinary household robot. The only special thing about it is probably its identity as Unit 0. It has many defects since it was manufactured. As a defective product, it has never been sold or used.

====

This is its introduction, but from the perspective of supernatural craftsmanship, it is quite different, especially the skill [Program Zero].

====

[Mecha Servant No. 0] (Real name: Lamia)

Grade: Bronze (can evolve to Epic)

Level: 1 star (can be upgraded to 3 stars in the bronze stage)

Favorability: 0

Possess skills:

Housekeeping knowledge: Proficient in five housekeeping service skills: cleaning, nursing, medical care, sewing, and cooking.

Program Zero: Imperfect and incomplete programming. Sometimes the Servant Zero will disobey orders and act autonomously.

This is just the surface of the skill. In essence, it is a code based on the fluctuations of the human soul. Due to chance, it has become an unrepeatable "miracle".

Introduction: Because his daughter died, his wife was heartbroken. "Father of Bionic Machines" Feren took advantage of his position to create the Servant No. 0 "Lamia" with the same name as his daughter.

The mechanical parts were no different from other servitors. The only difference was the Program Zero that transcribed the daughter's brain waves.

If it were just that, it would naturally not be an unrepeatable miracle. When Servant No. 0 was about to be completed, Feren and his wife were murdered by the enemy, causing the coding to be interrupted.

She was regarded as the prototype template of an ordinary domestic maid, and people copied everything about her.

Some people eliminated the obscure and useless Program Zero, while others tried to improve Program Zero. However, no matter what they did, they only created countless "it"s.

When the national war began, all the machines went into chaos. Lamia, who was located on the bottom floor of the manufacturing company, was thrown into the mechanical graveyard and started up on her own due to the electric shock of the leaking machine.

It is rumored that life originated from the reaction between lightning and water. At this time, Lamia was truly born. The imperfect Program Zero gave her unlimited possibilities, allowing her to fill everything herself.

Sadly, she would be shattered by the soldiers' gunfire.

Star upgrade requirements: Bionic skin, a Bronze 2-star mechanical material card, and the skill [Shooting Mastery].

Evolution requirements: Master level reaches 2 stars, card level reaches 3 stars, and favorability reaches 50 points.

====

A long card introduction highlights Lamia's extraordinary qualities, and the final twist is even more unexpected.

If I'm not mistaken, the card [Mecha Servant Zero] represents a mechanical girl who had a potential future but died prematurely.

He had great talent but died at the hands of soldiers. What can we say? "A genius who dies young is not a genius"?

When Lu Yan got the card, he was naturally more happy. After all, this was a character card that was high enough to become an epic eight-star card.

At the same time, he also became curious. If each card has its own "story", does the card itself actually symbolize the various nodes of the characters in it?

If [Mecha Servant Zero] had evolved through star upgrades, would she have changed the trajectory of her story and defeated or never encountered the soldiers who wanted to kill her?

Slapping his face to interrupt his thoughts, Lu Yan put it back into his body, took out the other cards he had obtained, opened his mobile phone and started to calculate carefully, preparing to sell the other cards he had obtained to the store.

Upgrading Lamia requires material cards and skill cards, both of which require money.

He had to ensure that after upgrading his star, he could still save money to enter the card domain.

Browsing the current market price of the cards, Lu Yan unconsciously covered his abdomen.

"Come to think of it, I haven't even had a meal all day..."

The panic caused by hunger made it impossible to calm down. Lu Yan originally wanted to get up and cook something to eat, but as soon as he sat up from the bed, he remembered that he didn't have to cook by himself in the future.

Raising his hand and taking out the card, Lu Yan threw it out of his hand. The light dissipated, and the shabby blonde robot stood firmly in place. The maid uniform on its body looked a little old.

"Housekeeping Robot Zero is at your service. What can I do for you?"

The broken mechanical girl spoke softly. Lu Yan looked at her and subconsciously stretched out his hand, but retracted it halfway.

In many news reports, card artists like to tinker with their own cards. The result is naturally a sharp drop in their favorability. He doesn't want to cause a similar situation.

"Lamiya, can you make something to eat with the ingredients we have at home?"

Lu Yan called out her name naturally, and the broken robot girl stayed where she was without moving.

Just when Lu Yan thought that her skill [Program Zero] was activated and therefore disobeyed the order, Servant Zero finally responded.

“…………Please wait a moment.”

.

.

There were clanging sounds coming from the small kitchen. Lu Yan lay on the side and watched, trying to prevent the mechanical girl from blowing up the house.

Lamia quickly cut the ingredients into shreds with a knife, and put noodles and various ingredients into the boiling pot. Not long after, she cooked a bowl of shredded pork noodles with a fried egg on top.

Well, at least I don’t have to worry about eating anymore, I can leave it to Lamia.

Lu Yan returned to the bed and waited for Lamia to bring the noodles over. She put the noodles on the computer desk, then stood aside with her hands folded in front of her.

If you ignore her ferocious appearance and exposed mechanical structure, she does look like a cute and reliable maid.

Sitting at the computer desk, Lu Yan finally felt the crowding of the rental house. He turned around and thanked Lamia:

"Thank you for the cooking, Lamia."

He raised his hand and turned it back into a card. The information on the card surprised Lu Yan.

Just over ten minutes after being released, the favorability of Servant No. 0, which was originally 12, has risen to . He doesn't even know how it rose so high.

"Because I called her name?"

Lu Yan picked up the noodles and put them in his mouth. Although he was not a picky eater, he felt that they tasted much better than the dishes he cooked himself.

While eating, he used his phone to search for ways to improve his favorability.

Judging from most of the information, the improvement in favorability needs to be consistent with the personality set by the card itself.

For example, a [Tavern Dancer] card, giving her cards related to money and treasures, and satisfying her physical desires may increase her favorability.

For example, [Knight of Justice], if the card artist himself tends to be kind, his favorability will automatically increase, and he doesn’t even need to send anything.

"So, what Lamia lacks is... 'love'?"

From the introduction, we can see that she may have emotions. It is a cliché that robots desire love and have dreams.

Calling her by her name instead of the codename [Zero] directly greatly increased her favorability towards him.

"Not just for her," Lu Yan picked up the bowl and drank the noodle soup, his eyes shining, "If I can see the real name, it seems that I can improve the favorability of many cards by calling out their names."

Looking at his other talent [Riding the Same Boat], Lu Yan decided to squeeze in as much as possible and spend the next period of time to get closer to Lamia.

When the favorability reaches 50, you can obtain the attributes of the card.

After washing the dishes, Lu Yan opened the shopping app again and looked for the mechanical-related material cards, material card [bionic skin] and skill card [shooting mastery] needed for Lamia to upgrade her star.

The expensive three cards made him sad, but he still placed the order online and then browsed the cards of cultivation methods to increase soul strength.

Chapter 3 First Star Upgrade

One night passed, and the things ordered by Lu Yan, who was short of time, were delivered.

After signing for it, he immediately opened the small package and took out four bronze cards from it, with a look of obvious pain flashing across his face.

There is no money left in Lu Yan’s bank card, and the cards he has have not been sold yet.

He planned to upgrade Lamia first and then go out to sell cards. It was not safe outside and [Servant Zero] was not aggressive at all.

====

Cultivation method, bionic skin and shooting proficiency, Lu Yan got everything he needed.

[The Fifth National Cultivation Technique] is the most basic cultivation method. There is nothing special about it. The two characteristics of "capacity expansion" and "cultivation" are common to all cultivation methods.

Precisely because it is a very common martial art, it is very cheap.

As for the additional star-up materials chosen for Lamia, in fact, most of the money was spent on the star-up materials determined by him independently.

【Electric shock module】

Level: 2 stars (cannot be upgraded)

Possess skills:

Close-range electric shock: When the enemy approaches, it can release a strong electric shock, causing huge damage and paralysis.

Introduction: A special module for the transformation of mechanical creations.

====

The other cards were fine, but this [Electric Shock Module] alone cost Lu Yan a full thousand yuan.

"I hope Lamia's star upgrade won't go wrong. I did everything the Ghostly Craftsman said. I hope she won't fail to upgrade me."

Lu Yan held the card and muttered to himself, fearing that his money would be wasted.

Using material cards to upgrade other cards or add skills is naturally not Lu Yan’s patent. Other card masters also use this method to upgrade and evolve cards.

The only problem is that they don't have [Supernatural Craftsmanship] and can only rely on speculation to add material cards to their cards.

For example, upgrading [Mechanical Creations] requires material cards related to machinery, and upgrading [Ghosts] requires material cards related to evil spirits and curses. It all depends on speculation.

The consequence of doing this is that there will definitely be a certain chance of failure in the card upgrade, and in the end nothing will happen, not even an additional skill.

"Lamiya, come here."

Lu Yan turned around and waved to the mechanical girl who was cleaning. She put down the broom and approached Lu Yan, standing in front of her card master and looking at him.
