Chapter 335: Clockwork City Public Enemy

At the end of the meeting, Mu You returned to the room in the surging black air.

Mu You immediately contacted Lin Xue on the forum and informed her of the previous speculation about her competitors.

"The chains of crippled limbs?" Lin Xue was slightly surprised when she heard this.

"Yes, my guess is that this may be the danger you are about to encounter, and if you have a fight with this person in the future, be sure to dodge as much as possible and not be hit by her." Mu lobbied.

Lin Xue received the news and paused for more than ten seconds before typing.

"If that's the case, dodging can only be avoided for a while, and external defense is probably more important."

"Huh?"

"If this person's chain is something like my scythe, then for it to work, it will most likely have to come into direct contact with the flesh of the creature." Lin Xue said.

The Reaper's Scythe was a tool she had been using, and she certainly knew the weapon's flaws best.

Such props seem to be functionally against the sky, but they are not invincible in actual combat, and they have two biggest weaknesses.

One is that there will be a cooldown period after each effect, about a second, during which no matter how many scythes are hit, it will no longer take effect.

The second is that the scythe must hit the flesh of the creature to be effective, and if it hits equipment or armor, but fails to penetrate the armor and cause damage to the main body, it will also not leave the mark of death. To put it in layman's terms: blood must be seen to count.

If the chain that Redsleeves used in pregnancy was a weapon similar to hers, it would most likely have both of these limitations.

“…… If you only cripple some limbs, using some hard armor and equipment should be able to effectively protect key parts......," Lin Xue analyzed.

"Armor ......"

Mu You touched his chin, in short, he wanted to be as protective as possible. At the extreme, if you put your whole body in iron armor and make yourself into an iron bucket, you may even ignore the chain directly!

Of course, this will be very high, and the movement in battle will be restricted everywhere, which is equivalent to turning yourself into a sandbag that will only be beaten, and the gains outweigh the losses.

However, when it came to the iron bucket, Mu You remembered the mecha skin.

If the chains really only work on the flesh of living beings, wouldn't it be completely destroyed by his mecha skin?

It's uncertain for the time being, but it's a latecomer.

In addition, they also have a little advantage, that is, he already understands the attributes of the red sleeves in pregnancy.

At least in terms of agility, he and Lin Xue's agility values are higher than each other's, so they will not fall behind in the most critical speed.

For the time being, this matter can only be discussed to this extent.

After closing the private chat with Lin Xue, Mu You contacted Jiuyou again, entrusting them to take care of the shooter recently, and by the way, he also revealed some information about the Z Realm Walker to him.

"Fingers? Armor? ”

Jiuyou's side was a little surprised when he first got this information, what does the great god mean, has he already met with the other party?

"It's not certain yet, it's just speculation, if you accidentally meet the other party, you can try to use these two methods to counteract." Mu lobbied.

"Okay, I understand, don't worry, I'll help arrange the things about seeing flowers in the fog."

Seeing that the other party didn't have any clear intentions, Jiuyou didn't ask much, in fact, they really didn't have the time to care about this Z realm walker recently.

Immediately after the Scorching Sun City, it was the turn of the Sunset and Dusk City, the Dragon Group and the Ice Emperor's men and horses, all of whom had been preparing for the next city capture in the past few days.

After arranging the shooter's affairs, Mu You switched back to the game and took a look.

The old man in the game is still sleeping, and his character is also hanging up on the charging pile to make parts, so there is nothing to do for the time being.

Mu You also hurried to rest, after all, when he turned around and waited for the old man to wake up, maybe he would have to be used as a nanny again, so he would have no time to rest.

And the next thing it turned out was that his worries were not unfounded.

The next morning, not long after Mu You woke up, the text in the game changed.

【…… When Barney, the old goblin wakes up, he continues to look at the drawings and take notes, while enjoying the pinch of the assistant robot's shoulders. 】

[The old goblin suddenly turned around, looked at the assistant robot behind him irritably, and ordered it to stop and go back to work.] 】

[Then the old goblin Barney looks in your direction, his eyes sweeping over the row of robots in front of the charging pile, and mutters to himself, "Who hammered my shoulder last night?"] That's a good force...... Number 13, it should be you, right? 】

[Number 13 is your mecha number.] 】

[Obviously, the old goblin with osteoporosis was impressed by your massage technique last night, and among the robots on the scene, only your strength is the most suitable for it, and I hope to continue to enjoy your service at this time......]

“emmm……”

Mu You's face was black.

He had already tried his best to hide in the crowd, but he didn't expect it to be found out.

And the reason for finding it out is because of his shoulder pinching technique, which makes the other party 'enjoy', which is the rhythm of promoting him to be the head of internal affairs......

Mu You was quite speechless, but he was helpless, he could only do it at this time, otherwise yesterday's hard day would be wasted.

The next time, Mu You spent the rest of his life.

In the game, he was busy satisfying the various egg pain requirements of the goblin old man, but in reality, he paid attention to the forum from time to time.

Today is the day of the birth of Sun City, and the support time requested by the lion is around twelve o'clock at noon, and it looks like the time is almost up.

Sure enough, at about two o'clock in the afternoon, a system message suddenly popped up in the game.

[City of the Scorching Sun, successfully activated!] 】

[First City Lord: Hellboy.] 】

Mu You was stunned, the news came out, but, hell baron? Who is this? Failed in the lion scramble?

Mu You frowned, but he was not in a hurry, and after continuing to wait for an hour or so, he received a message from the lion on the forum.

"Woo, boss, I'm broken!" The lion came up and made a big cry.

"Who is this hellboy?" Mu You was curious.

"One of my collaborators......"

"Oh? Does it mean that they are playing tricks on you? Mu You asked.

"That's not true, because we signed a blood pact of not attacking each other and not murdering each other within a year, and the cooperation is quite harmonious, after entering the city, the front has been working together to get rid of all opponents, but at the last level, we agreed to compete freely without hurting each other, whoever arrived first is counted, I was a little unlucky, a little slower, and was preempted." The lion continued to swipe the screen and cry, and did not blame his teammates in his words, but calmly admitted that his skills were inferior to others, and he had nothing to say about losing.

Mu You touched his chin and asked again, "Is it because of the Z Realm Walker last night?" ”

The lion has a secret technique, and enjoys the magic support of other people, and the overall strength is definitely higher than that of others, but he still loses, this kind of thing, of course, luck is one thing, but other factors may not be without ......

"He? How can it be! Boss, don't be kidding, I'm going to lose the city lord because of his influence? The lion immediately retorted.

"Really? Not at all? Mu You asked.

"......" The lion was silent and only resumed typing after a moment.

"Well, I'll admit, there was a bit of a distraction, and at the last moment I hesitated for a moment, and I swore that it was really just a faint thought, and I missed the opportunity, alas......" The lion sent a 'kind of humiliating' meme, obviously still a little bit obsessed with it.

But soon he picked himself up and sent another message.

"It's okay, boss, although I didn't grab the city lord, but at least the city lord was still won by our side, and now I have also been assigned the position of a deputy city lord, which is one of the contents of our previous blood contract, I am actually a third of the talkers, and I can talk about general things." The lion said.

The blood contract signed by the lion and his collaborator is quite strict, clearly demarcating the scope of cooperation between the three and the division of interests after success, so even if he doesn't get the city lord, his voice will far exceed that of the ordinary deputy city lord. Although the Lion's proposal was not something that the Lord of the Burning Sun had to follow, it would certainly serve as an important reference.

With such a relationship, it will be much easier for the people of their association to do things here in Scorching Sun City in the future, which is also their original intention.

After chatting with the lion, Mu You still contacted the 'Hell Baron' as usual and informed Sky City of the matters that need to pay attention to the flight altitude.

Then nothing happened in reality, and Mu You was able to focus his attention back on the game.

Clockwork City, the goblin old man and a group of assistant robots are still working overtime to make parts, and Mu You is doing all kinds of messy chores throughout the whole process.

It lasted until eleven o'clock in the evening, and finally, the news that Mu You had been waiting for for a long time popped up.

[Old goblin Barney concentrates on operating the workbench, combining all kinds of small parts together......]

[The outline of a power furnace gradually takes shape, it is composed of countless gears and dense silk threads, which are connected together in a complex connection way that is difficult for you to understand, one ring after another, and any slight jitter may cause the entire structure to collapse......]

[Moments later, Barney completes the final step, and the entire furnace blank is transported by the robotic arm into the alchemy pool for the final heating and shaping work......]

Mu You was very emotional, he was called by this old man for two days, and finally, this nightmare day is coming to an end!

Now that all the parts have been manufactured and the assembly has been done, it is time for the final refining.

At this time, the old goblin man had long lost the mind to enjoy the service of rubbing his shoulders and beating his legs, and he kept wandering in the hall restlessly, and Mu You was also relieved, standing by the wall with other assistant robots and waiting to fish.

The refining process lasted two hours.

It wasn't until one o'clock in the morning that the game finally popped up a hint that the refining was complete.

[The fireproof mechanical arm went deep into the alchemy pool of flames and fished out an extremely hot furnace from it, exposing it to the air, and the room suddenly steam surged. 】

[You see a magma-like liquid flowing from the surface of the furnace, which looks uneven, but you can still feel the extraordinary power in it, a powerful jump like a heart......]

[The robotic arm feeds the furnace into the coolant on the side. 】

[The high temperature cooled rapidly, and the original red furnace body gradually washed away the dirt in the transparent refrigerant liquid, revealing the smooth furnace body shining with purple brilliance below! 】

[Ancient Power Furnace: An imitation of the Eternal Power Furnace, it can provide unimaginably strong power and charging efficiency, and can drive up to three legendary accessories to run at the same time. 】

[Old goblin Barney saw the power furnace come out smoothly, and the excitement in his heart was indescribable, and at this time, there was only one last step left before the new mecha it had been researching for many years. 】

"Quick, go get it out!"] "Barney can't wait to give you orders. 】

It's coming, it's coming!

Mu You was waiting for now, holding the pocket watch and going back more than a dozen times, and finally grabbed this opportunity.

[You rush up one lunge ahead of the other robots and come to the cooling device.] 】

[Your robotic arm reaches out and slowly removes the power furnace from the icy liquid.] 】

["Yes, Thirteen, bring it to me! The old goblin was pleased with your skilful style, and beckoned you to hand over the power furnace to him. ...... you choose]

You rejected Barney's order! 】

[You chose to send the power furnace into your body, and the fusion program was activated......]

[Fusion successful, your power furnace has been replaced with: Ancient power furnace, current energy remaining: 2%, energy overflow needs to be charged time: 32 minutes, or directly put in magic crystals: 124 ......]

"124, good fellows......"

The corners of Mu You's eyes twitched, it was worthy of an epic power furnace, this capacity was really extraordinary, it could eat more than a hundred magic crystals at a time, and at the same time, the charging speed was ridiculously fast.

In the original ordinary power furnace, a magic crystal could be filled with energy, while it took more than five hours to recharge at standstill.

The capacity of the ancient power furnace has increased by more than 120 times, but it only takes half an hour to charge, and the charging speed is more than 1,200 times faster!

"Thirteen, what are you doing? Barney, the old goblin, looked at you incredulously, and his face quickly turned angry. 】

[The other assistant robots present have also realized your betrayal at this time, and are ready to raise their weapons at you......]

At this time, there was no time to slowly recharge, so Mu You chose to add the magic crystal directly.

[You have put 124 magic crystals into the power furnace, and your power furnace has overflowed, and powerful power is flowing in your body. 】

[You have removed your camouflage form, and the shotguns in your arms have appeared, and you are the first to fire before the other robots can move!] 】

[Dense energy projectiles surged in the hall, flying towards all the assistant robots around ......]

[God's power, trigger!] 】

[Chaotic Circuit, Trigger!] 】

[The assistant robots present have fallen into a state of chaos, and all attacks have a 75% probability of being deflected......]

[The counter-attack shoulder armor of the assistant robot was activated, and one missile after another was fired indiscriminately, but as soon as it was discharged, it was detonated by the dense energy network of the shotgun, and the scene was turned over on their backs......]

[In the smoke of gunpowder, you rush straight to the old goblin Barney, in a vain attempt to take the other party hostage. 】

[However, before you can get close, a crystal cube automatically appears on Barney's body, enveloping its whole person, and Barney's figure becomes illusory.] 】

[Barney is temporarily in exile, and all your attacks can't hit the opponent!] 】

"Banishment?"

Mu You was stunned for a moment, he still wanted to hold this old man hostage and ask about the whereabouts of the Eternal Power Furnace, why was he suddenly invincible?

Fortunately, the game automatically gives instructions at this point.

[Emergency Avoidance Device: A safety device prepared by the goblin clan for important personnel in the clan, which automatically activates when it senses danger, temporarily saves the character body to a different space, cannot be moved, and remains in a state that cannot be attacked, and is automatically lifted after 120 seconds. 】

"And this kind of thing......"

Mu You was stunned, this goblin clan had invented these strange things, but fortunately he hadn't been in a hurry to hold the other party hostage before.

There is no hope of holding it hostage, and Mu You didn't force it, anyway, the things have already arrived.

[Piercing sirens rang throughout Clockwork City!] 】

[You snatch the Doom mech from the workbench and run towards the ventilation duct. 】

[The locked old goblin Barney's eyes breathe fire, but he can only watch you leave.] 】

The ventilation duct is another exit to the outside world in addition to the main entrance, after all, the smoke of alchemy in this laboratory has to be exhausted every day.

[You crawl quickly along the ventilation duct, and soon enter another building connected to the duct. 】

[However, when you crawl out of the pipe, you find that the outside of this building has been surrounded by a large number of mechas! 】

[Seeing your appearance, all mechs fire at the same time!] Colorful artillery fire and energy bombs were intertwined into an impenetrable network of firepower, all pouring towards the building. 】

[The building collapsed in an instant under artillery fire, and you were buried under the rubble......]
