Wen Dao looked up and saw a rust-colored, uniquely styled empty motorcycle floating outside the terrace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Wendao was somewhat familiar with the rust-colored appearance, and it was none other than Samson, the mechanical supervisor who lived on the second floor of Suzaku Liao.

Samson beckoned to Wendao through the glass, and Wendao hurriedly pushed the door to the terrace.

"Yo, newcomer, I'm here to visit!"

"Skewers, skewers?"

"Hey, why do you look like you've seen a cat dancing? Isn't it proper etiquette for a new neighbor to come over and say hello?" Samson slowly landed on the terrace on his motorcycle, seemingly unimpressed by Wendao's stunned expression. "Or are uninvited guests not welcome here?"

"Welcome, of course, welcome, please come in!"

Wen Dao, who came back to his senses, nodded busily, and his heart swelled with excitement and surprise. Previously, due to the perennial lack of permanent residence, the relationship between workplace and residence frequently changed, it was difficult for Wendao to establish any strong and lasting relationship with the neighbors around him. Samson's surprise visit, which also included Judy and Ryu, who had been uninvited before, was like a gift from God to him, and Wendao felt his whole heart warm.

"Very good, that's what hospitality is all about!" Samson laughed heartily, but instead of rushing into the living room, he pointed to the empty motorcycle parked on the terrace. "Look at this, how does it feel?"

Samson's tone was quite proud, and Wen Dao's eyes moved over, and he found that this empty motorcycle was the one that Samson and the mechanics were fiddling with when he visited Suzaku Liao yesterday.

Although in the earth's civilization circle, the air motorcycle is a future technology that will take centuries to be born, but in the interstellar civilization circle, it is a very popular space vehicle. When Wen Dao set up the Viper base, he captured several Empire-made empty motorcycles from the bandits, and even tried to ride them a few times, so he was not completely unfamiliar with this.

The empty motorcycles made by the San Vano Empire are full of industrial design and precision mechanical beauty. Samson's empty bike is the polar opposite, with the odd proportions of the head and body, from the rudimentary anti-rust coating to the semi-bare engine mechanism, from the rattan handlebars to the patched exhaust pipes, it can be said that it exudes the strong atmosphere of a small mountain workshop from the inside out.

"This one looks very special. ”

Wen Dao carefully chose the words and paid homage to Samson's masterpiece.

"Well, of course, I've got two VX engines in it. Samson smirked on the front power, which took up almost two-thirds of the bike. "Do you know the Magnetic Vortex Engine? It's a high-end item used as an auxiliary output on a cruiser, and I managed to get two of them from the Sham Black Market. However, the output of these two goods is really too fierce, and it has to be on the structural frame of Nirvana alloy to eat hard. There are few places in the universe to do the processing of Nirvana, so I asked the old man to make several sets of plans, and finally came up with ......"

Looking back at the empty motorcycle with a big head and a small body, Samson's face was slightly embarrassed, and it seemed that even he himself could not give a high score for the appearance of the work. "It's a bit ugly, but the performance is absolutely guaranteed. If it were at full power, there would be nothing faster in the atmosphere. In turn, the torque is amplified, and with the pull of two magnetic vortex engines, even lifting a transport ship is not a problem. ”

"However, it will consume a lot of energy to do this, right?" Hearing Samson's introduction, Wen Dao couldn't help but interject. Thanks to his previous experience working in a motorcycle shop, he still has the common sense that the higher the engine power, the greater the fuel consumption.

"Oh, you're on point!" Samson smugly flicked his fingers and put his arm around Wendao's shoulders to let him focus on a red-glowing spherical structure at the rear of the engine. "See that? The permanent miniature fusion furnace that the Harpy Federation built for uninhabited fortresses during the War of Conquest. The garrison salvaged the fortress, and we removed all the protective layers before we managed to compress it to the point where it could fit into the Nirvana rack. ”

The war of conquest that Samson is talking about should be the period when the Emerald Star Field was occupied by the Dragon Virtuous King, and the San Vano Empire and the Harpy Federation were engaged in a fierce tug-of-war in the Star Field. At that time, in order to suppress the aggressiveness of the invaders, the Harpy Federation dropped thousands of unarmed fortresses in the Emerald Star Field. While the vast majority of uninhabited fortresses have been destroyed by the Empire, a small number are still floating in the void to this day. A half-damaged fortress that accidentally drifted into orbit around the sun was picked up by the Ryugu garrison, and was reduced to a spare parts inventory for mechanical overseers.

Although the creations of the Harpy Federation have always been known for their ingenuity, they have removed all the protective layers of the fusion furnace to assemble an empty motorcycle. Such a heart-wrenching approach also deeply shocked Wen Dao.

"Rest assured, we still have the titanium shell. Unless it is directly hit by an armor-piercing bullet, there will be absolutely no problem with bumps and bumps. Samson waved his hand to try to reassure Wendao. "It has an output of 120 megawatts, which is more than enough to propel two magnetic vortex engines. Even if necessary, there is no problem in using a small city as a temporary power station. ”

“…… It's remarkable. ”

Wendao paid tribute to Samson with a sigh.

Putting aside the almost frenzied brutality, the mere use of clutter of parts to build this monster-level empty motorcycle is a testament to Samson's professionalism. Like a certain Stardust Warrior downstairs, all the people in Suzaku Liao are outstanding elites in their respective fields.

However, while sighing, Wen Dao couldn't help but have a subtle question in his heart - the reason why Samson came to visit the door was simply to find someone to show off this painstaking masterpiece, right?

"Very well, then take it. ”

At this point, Samson tossed the retro version of the car keys over.

"What?"

What, what's the situation? Wen Dao, who took the key, had a bewildered expression on his face.

Seeing the appearance of the rookie deacon, Samson sighed heavily, as if he wanted to make up for common sense for a young man who lacked social experience. "I said, little brother, when you first visited Ling's home, did you come to the door empty-handed?"

"Yes, shouldn't it?" Wen Dao said uncertainly.

"So, this car is a door-to-door salute, and it's yours from now on!" Samson emphasized, gesturing to the empty motorcycle. "I've heard your story against poachers, and you've done a good job. According to the way our chief deacon hires people, there should be a lot of similar tasks in the future, so let's make good use of this guy!"

From Samson's words, it seems that the gift of the empty motorcycle was not a whim-spur decision, but a gift of equipment to facilitate the event, taking into account the tendencies of Fumitao's mission. Wen Dao couldn't help but feel ashamed of his previous narrow thinking, and bowed his head to thank this senior in the workplace who was also from the same realm.

"Thank you, Mr. Samson. ”

"Just call me Samson, you're welcome. Samson waved his hand cheerfully. "Yesterday's duel was very exciting, and I'm quite optimistic about you. If you need any equipment in the future, just come to our mechanical group, and we will give you a preferential price. ”

"Okay!" Wen Dao felt a great warmth in his heart, and nodded vigorously in response to Samson.

In this way, after the beast-eared cook and the tree fairy, Wen Tao met a trustworthy friend.

Touched by the friendly atmosphere of Suzaku Liao, Fumi-Tao originally wanted to take advantage of the paid leave to strengthen the relationship with the squatters, but only a few hours later, a call from the chief deacon blocked his wish and announced the end of the first paid leave......

The deacon's office is located in the airport area of the ring road on the west side of Baixia Palace. Thanks to the bloody and tearful efforts of the maintenance staff, the airport area has become one of the very few areas in the Dragon Palace that has preserved its original ecological functions from the invasion of rampaging plants. Since the Baixia Palace was built almost without considering the cost, the entire airport system is also on par with the highest standards of Supohai.

The highly intelligent airport area can accommodate more than 500 large spaceships at the same time, and carry out synchronous inspection, repair and supply maintenance operations for half of them. In terms of function, it can be said that it is close to the level of a military fortress, but because the lord has no intention of opening up the trade routes of this star field, the entire airport system is basically in a state of standstill. Aside from the handful of regular supply ships each month, the Lord's ship, Mocking Wind, is the only one to serve.

Guided by the bracelet, Wendao followed the low-gravity trail in the airport area towards the deacon's office. When I passed by a dry dock, I couldn't help but stop, and looked at the ship in the dock with nostalgia for the maintenance of the servo fleet. On the side platform of the dockyard, a small maid with a double ponytail is explaining something to the pilots of the maintenance team.

When he saw the little maid, Wen Dao's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and he looked around in a little panic, but there was no figure of Tsing Yi Long Ji within the range of vision. Disappointment, Wen Dao was somewhat relieved, but even he couldn't figure out what kind of expectations he had for this. The dragon scales in his arms still seemed to exude warmth, but the figure of the dragon scale owner lingered in his mind.

However, Ani at the platform noticed the bad sight from above and looked up. The moment their eyes met, Wen Dao waved her hand in a friendly manner, but the little maid stomped her foot in hatred. Feeling helpless, Wendao had no choice but to continue along the trail, and soon came to the deacon's office adjacent to the airport.

"Trainee deacon Wen Dao, came to report. ”

Standing at the door of the deacon's office, Wen Dao took a deep breath to calm down before stretching out his finger and knocking on the door of the deacon's room.

"Come in. ”

With a low echo, the carved wooden door silently slid to the side.

Wen Dao walked into the deacon's room with a cautious pace. Looking up, I saw that unlike the potters who lived in the hut before, the owner of the office had changed into the formal clothes of the chief deacon, and he was meticulous from the bow tie to the cuffs. The thunder light in the purple eyes pierced through the single-framed lenses and threw it at the newcomer deacon, who couldn't help but shudder.

The chief deacon seemed in a bad mood, but when Wendao looked away a little, he immediately knew the difficult task he was about to face.
