The girl's name is Rita Snoff, and she is the granddaughter of Guron Snoff, the owner of this mechanical repair shop. She's a big girl with a knack for mechanical repairs and modifications. The dirty white cotton short-sleeved and light-colored denim overalls were her overalls in the store, and the other girls liked beautiful silk tuules and blue cornflowers, while Rita's favorites were repeating guns, naval cannons, and steam mechs.

She expertly weaves her way through the intricate mechanisms stacked together, and the only embellishment tied to her short pink hair are two small golden bells that make a pleasant sound as she moves. The space inside the store is still very narrow, but it is very deep, and the houses on both sides of the alley are basically of this design, and the entrance is very small, and the further you go inside, the more different it becomes.

The shop was lit with steam, and the light was dim, and Corgate followed the sound of the bell on Rita's head.

Passing underneath a large machine used to paint metal, Rita lifted a thick cloth of broken flowers hanging from the wall, revealing a dark pathway. The path leads to a room hidden behind the shop, and a fire flashes from the room.

"Komat, come and see what this is!" The occupants in the hidden room were using a steam flame gun to do a flame cut, and when he saw someone enter, he turned off the switch on the flame gun and lifted the metal protective mask on his face.

He is the owner of Snoff's mechanical maintenance - Guron Snoff, who is already a gray-haired old man, but he has a special passion for steam machinery. Rita once told Corgate that her grandfather often sighed and regretted marrying Rita's grandmother, and that he only understood the true meaning of marriage until he got married, and that he regretted that he did not marry a steam machine as his wife. Whenever Gurung talked about this, Rita would pull out a wrench and shout to knock Grandpa on the head.

Hanging on the huge metal frame in front of the old man turned out to be an ancient steam mecha!

It was by no means any of the steam mechs that Corgate had ever seen, and it had a strange shape and a rare bright blue livery. With a height of almost three meters, it stands in front of humans like an ancient giant, and its face armor is inverted triangular in shape, sharp and sharp. Corgate had seen illustrations of dragons in mythology in the old library, large, mysterious creatures with faces covered in sharp bone spurs.

The Mystic Steam Mech is incomplete, and it looks like it has been badly damaged. The damage to his left arm was more than ninety percent, which is why Gurung had to cut it with a flame gun to remove his armor. The belly of the mecha is designed with a knotted button, a total of three diamond-shaped armor pieces, which can rotate freely.

This design fits snugly around the driver's abdomen, reducing weight and increasing flexibility in waist turning. For the mecha of the Guardian Army, this design is not adopted, they often look like a tiger's back, but the mecha in front of Komat looks like a bee-waisted beauty.

There was another wound in the mech's ribs, a brutal penetrating wound. The sharp, rifle-like weapon had left a circular hole in a black hole, and the mech's front breastdeck had been removed, revealing the steam core inside. The piercing wound was close to the core, and it was full of dried black blood, indicating that the pilot of this mecha must have suffered very serious injuries, and may even die from excessive blood loss.

Corgate looked at the steam core curiously, he couldn't even tell what it was. When Professor Uno asked him difficult questions, he answered them fluently, but at this moment, he was speechless. The steam core was encased in a thin purple copper tube that looked like a heart.

"You may not believe it, but it doesn't seem to be steam-powered, and I didn't even find this guy's steam pack!" Gurung said, a proud smile on his old face, and he patted the core, "I'm so lucky to see this kind of thing when I'm an old bone!" ”

As if remembering something, Komet quickly turned behind the mech and looked up at the mech's back.

It stands to reason that the weapons of the mecha are generally hung on the weapon rack behind the back, and if you can't see its model by the mecha itself, you can find a breakthrough from its weapon. For example, the Guardians' standard military mech, the Silver Hand, is equipped with the True Silver Sword, while the special large-scale Lightbringer is equipped with the Mithril Lance.

Unfortunately, the weapon rack behind the mech is empty.

"I've seen that before, and when this guy brought it to me, the weapon rack was empty. Hmph, I was curious to see if this highly mobile mech would use a broadsword or a hammer. Gurung rubbed his eyes, he had worked all day today, and his presbyopia was dry.

"It doesn't really have a steam pack." Komet looked at the empty back of the mech.

The back of the mecha is a weapon rack for hanging weapons, and the back of the waist is generally designed as a steam backpack for storing energy, which is why military mechs generally look very thick. However, this mech, with its knob-fastened waist, has no steam backpack at all, it has a purple heart that does not need steam to function, and the steam flow is not the blood flowing in its veins.

"The connection between it and the driver is still using the LCL neural circuit, and although the part of the device is also broken, I got a little residual LCL from the back of the nerve striker, and the test results are similar to what we used." Rita shook the towel off her shoulder and said.

"Where did this thing come from?" Corgate asked.

"Someone sent it anonymously last night, saying that it was a request to repair the damaged part of the mech. The repair time is indefinite, and once the task is completed, just insert a bouquet of blue cornflowers at the door and someone will naturally pick up the goods. Rita replied, spreading her hands.

"This thing is definitely not easy to repair, and many parts can't be bought." Corgate looked at the left hand, which was almost completely damaged.

"What's so hard about this, someone else gave a deposit of 4,000 pounds! When the task is completed, another 4,000 pounds will be paid, and if this job is completed, we will be able to eat big fish and meat for a year without opening! Gurung laughed, showing a mouthful of black teeth, he has a smoking addiction, but he does not dare to smoke in the store, and it is easy to ignite steam and kerosene if he uses an open flame without protection.

"What are you doing! Let's go, get back to work! Rita said, slapping a wrench into Corment's arms with a snap, "Grandpa, come out and eat bread." She turned her head and shouted to Gurung, as if she was the big boss here.
