"Brother Shui, please take a look, can this thing still be repaired?"

A half-dragon girl with a scaly head pointed to a pile of scrap iron and said to Wang Shui.

Wang Shui pinched the broken wound of severe metal fatigue with his fingers, and asked very professionally and seriously:

"What is this pile?"

"Ahh It's [BS433-A3-"Black Sword"] Micro Mobile Armor! ”

Wang Shui continued to twist his very professional eyebrows and sent out an email, and then quickly received a reply.

"Well, the damage is very serious, and it's very expensive if it's overhauled, don't you consider replacing it?"

The half-dragon girl was a little disappointed, and said: "If it's too expensive, forget it, a new mecha will cost more than 20,000 ...... Next time [Mandatory Mission] goes to the fantasy world, [Reality Front] is still too dangerous for those of us who have not reached the first rank. ”

Good guy, your life is bigger than your heart, isn't it the same danger how many steps there are, Wang Shui couldn't help but complain in his heart.

It's said that the mobile armor is shattered like this, and you are not dead, you are simply a hero, oh no, dragon male, emmm...... Dragon Hen!

"There's still room for a roundabout in terms of repair prices, do you have 5,500 Dream Points on you? Or convert it into silver coins, you can discount 500 points, only 5 silver coins. ”

"5 Silver! Is it okay for this price! is worthy of Brother Shui, the best repair master here in the novice area! ”

Wang Shui waved his hand, "Okay, okay, add a friend, I will send it to you the day after tomorrow, and if you agree, you can sign the maintenance contract." ”

The half-dragon girl left happily after signing the contract, Wang Shui looked at the pile of scrap iron that could not be sold for a price, and twitched the corners of his mouth, and directly pushed it into the repair shop to see if he could remove any parts that were not broken.

Just two or three minutes later, a flat unmanned transport trolley drove over and asked Wang Shui to sign for it.

Wang Shui signed the code name [Half Bottle of Water] as the Awakened on the light screen, and the trolley used its robotic arm to push a medium-sized composite box to the ground, and then quickly drilled out of the alley with complex terrain.

Open the box, and inside is a ninety percent new set of [Black Sword] mobile armor.

"Can't you make a card......" Wang Shui muttered as he moved the parts of the mecha to the workbench.

The close-fitting miniature mecha constructed with a rigid alloy structure and composite lining is only a little heavier than the traditional steel full-body armor, but the technological level gap is similar to that of a starship beating an ape.

The kid who dumped the waste products is really getting more and more up-and-coming, and he treated it with a cleaning agent before sending it, saving a lot of trouble with aqua regia.

Wang Shui, who was flattered, happily hit the full amount directly this time.

[Pay Dream Points to [Bloodthirsty Dragon MAX]: 1500, and the trade contract is complete!] 】

The text and the mechanical female voice appeared at the same time, but I don't know why every time I see the name of the garbage guy, Wang Shui has a strange feeling, and the egg hurts.

After the transaction, Wang Shui first took out a box of professional mecha maintenance kits and began the preliminary disassembly.

Energy module, no problem;

The shield module, it's no problem if it's old;

Muscle strength module, no problem;

Three-way table, huh? Why is this thing on a mech? Confiscate.

Sensing the system, if it is damaged, first replace it with a piece of glass.

Combat Bundle mod, huh? What about my fire control???

No wonder it can't be restored to the card form, it turns out that there is no fire control chip directly, and the entire combat tube module is left with a shell.

Alas, Wang Shui sighed, returned to his small shop like a garbage heap, and rummaged through the pile of scrap iron of the half-dragon girl.

Good guy, this one is even more terrifying, and the entire combat tube module has been melted into a lump.

"Loss~"

Muttering to his lips, Shui Wang found a box on the dilapidated shelves bent by various metal garbage, which contained two crystal-textured cards.

He pulled out a card, stuffed it into the weather-beaten, brown-stained desktop computer next to it, dug out the fire control file of [Black Sword] in a mess of materials, and began to swipe into the crystal chip card into the system.

The fourth-generation first-order mecha, this kind of antique fire control and intelligent control system are integrated, and the system naturally cannot be started without it, nor can it be turned into a card for easy carrying.

And now it is difficult to find the system of this mecha on the [Dream Network], that is, the same antique garbage repair shop, there will be such useless treasures.

During the brushing of the system, Wang Shui was not idle.

It seems that ninety percent of the new mecha actually has a lot of dark damage in the alloy material, and the defensive performance is far worse than what it is labeled, and the outdated intelligent control system cannot detect it in real time, no, this old system will not detect metal performance at all.

In particular, the damage to these important parts of the shoulder armor made this good mecha scrapped, it looks new, but when it is really opened, there is a danger of disintegration and collapse at any time.

Lack of maintenance, lack of maintenance.

After all, it is a first-order cannon fodder machine, no, it may not even be a cannon fodder machine, at most it is a training machine.

Selling this kind of self-detonating waste to customers, even people like Wang Shui are a little unbearable, after all, it may affect his good reputation, but who makes customers have no money, isn't this the customer's problem?

Ruthless, Wang Shui took out a can of metal repair oil from the counter, which was also full of oil stains, and I don't know how many times it was used, but it was always used up, and began to maintain this mecha.

Half an hour later, the sky quickly became dark, and a figure like a mountain of meat appeared in front of the shop.

"Yo, Brother Shui, it's a shift change."

"Kazan, you stand outside for a while, or I won't be able to get out." Wang Shui hurriedly stopped the strong man of the little giant's half-blood.

The crystal card loaded with the fire control system is stuffed into the combat tube bundle module, the energy path is turned on for self-check, and after the module is connected normally, Wang Shui Siwei connects to this mobile armor, and after the self-test of the module on the table is completed, it directly becomes a card.

【Item Cards·「 Black Sword" Mobile Armor (White)】

In Wang Shui's vision, a low-light screen appeared that only he could see, after all, the light signal was directly acting on the brain, not the projection of light.

No problem, the card information is connected to the [arithmetic terminal] of aqua regia, indicating that the basic functions are not abnormal.

But for the sake of quality control, Wang Shui still came to the door of the shop, holding the card between the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, and issued voice commands while thinking about the connection.

"Item Card Activation."

As soon as his body was light, Wang Shui floated slightly in the air, about twenty centimeters above the ground, and the illusory light formed the appearance of a black sword mecha around his body, and then the black light condensed, and a set of close-fitting black armor appeared directly on Wang Shui's body.

No way!

Wang Shui bent down suddenly, only to feel a sharp pain under his right ribs!

Rely on! I forgot, now I am wearing an old overalls, not a professional combat hunting suit, with pockets full of screws and wrenches, and I almost broke Wang Shuigan!

Quickly undressed, and after three seconds, the mobile armor returned to a card, and Wang Shui also breathed a sigh of relief.

The effect is okay, the panel display system on the helmet is normal, although there is no additional [energy coin] inserted, but the mecha can normally absorb the free energy in the environment to ensure basic operation, indicating that there is no problem with the energy module.

As for plugging in the [Energy Coins] to verify the shield and combat assistance system, Aqua Kings would not dare, and plugging in the energy source would be equivalent to installing explosives.

Only the mecha with the help of the mechanical structure is not very heavy, which means that the overall rigid structure is also intact, so it is enough.

So...... Wang Shui threw the card into the mailbox next to him, set it to be sent out the night after tomorrow, and attached the content of the contract.

Get~

Don't let the customer receive it too early, let the customer think that he is working hard to repair, and work overtime until the last moment of the promise, so that the customer will feel that the money is worth it!

Hmm~~ah~~

Wang Shui, who picked up a big order in white, stretched his waist, saw Kazan, the little giant of Roshan next to him, who looked confused, and beckoned to him.

"Kazan, I or Brother Hei didn't come back to the front store and handed it over to you to watch, and someone came to ask you and said that the craftsmen were not at home, understand?"

"Understood, Kazan will sleep in the store and wait for Brother Hei and Brother Shui to come back!"

Brother Hei is afraid that he will not die in Flower Street.

With a sneer, Wang Shui was just about to leave, and the simple-minded Kazan asked loudly:

"Brother Shui, are you going to run a mission in the other world?"

"Yes, even if you are an awakened person in the life department, you must carry out a solo [exploration mission] within half a year, the system stipulates."

"Brother Shui, Kazan can protect you! Let's go together! ”

"Go, go, the mandatory task can only be arranged alone, watch the store well, don't eat the materials in the box! If you are hungry, you can eat scrap iron outside. ”

"Oh~ Brother Shui, be careful, Kazan only has two friends, Brother Hei and Brother Shui......"

I'm so glad I'm worried about you guys who don't have a lot of IQ arrears.

Leaving Artisan Street, which is full of metal garbage, Shui Wang, dressed in shabby overalls and covered with oil, seems to have nowhere to go, so he can only walk towards the city center in a daze.

The streets gradually become wider and brighter, surrounded by various food and beverage stores, as well as shops selling new equipment.

Most of the people who set up shop here are native, not managed by the system, and don't have to pay taxes to the system, but they spit out the money they make elsewhere.

After all, the [Dream System] is not a good thing.

There are also many awakened people like Wang Shui among the pedestrians, and now the city at Wang Shui's feet is being controlled by the [Dream System], and these [Awakened Ones] who belong to the system have also been fished here from various worlds.

It's not that beautiful a city.

Leaving Artisan Street, which borders the slums, the surrounding houses began to rise up, and many of the masonry and concrete buildings were gradually replaced by steel buildings, and gradually even the ground became a specially coated steel road.

There were more colorful dynamic billboards, more pedestrians, and fewer low-level awakened people like Shui Wang.

This is no newbie area anymore.

The name of the city does not derive from its more than 80% steel city.

In fact, the original old city was in the slum area, and the original old masonry fortress had no trace of it, and the city had just been controlled by the [Dream System] for seven or eight years.

In fact, Wang Shui is the same, he has only been selected by the system to be an awakened person for half a year, and now he is unrecognizable from the inside out.

Half a year ago, he was a social animal who messed around all day long, until the destined mud truck sent him into an unexpected near-future sci-fi world.

Then, the [Dream System] contacted him and told him that the system had intercepted his soul and reshaped his body, and now that he was an awakened person belonging to the system, he needed to complete the initial awakening task, choose an awakening that conformed to the soul tendency, and become a transcendent ...... Cannon fodder.

It turns out that my life is full of blood?!

With the excitement of the protagonist, Wang Shui ends the first infinite journey.

Then, there is no then.

Asking is that there is no loss in momentum.

Wang Shui, wandering on the neon streets, was a little distracted, tomorrow is the deadline for mandatory tasks, the system does not raise idlers, and the system is very good at recognizing people, the awakened people here are either ruthless and brave, or insidious and cunning, or decisive in killing, some people who seem to be quiet and wooden, in fact, must be particularly advocating violence.

How could you keep such a pure, simple and kind person as me...... This is something that Wang Shui has always been unable to figure out.

Wang Shui doesn't look down on himself, he is real, from the inside out, and feels that he has a different painting style from this group of awakened people.

He was afraid of death, of pain, of starvation and all kinds of harsh living conditions.

So up to now, he has only experienced the first awakening mission.

Moreover, he did not complete the main quest at that time.

He lingered on a mech-hugging battlefield for a month until the system determined that he couldn't complete the mission.

The system directly threw him the lowest level [Random Awakening] reward, and then threw him into the city.

Someone else's infinity, the first world to kill all sides to get full rewards, a wave of start to conquer the heavens.

The infinity of Aqua regia, surviving for a long time, is struggling with nothing.

What can he do, he was a low-level CRUD coder before he came here, a real waste wood who relies on a keyboard to fight.

In the end, Wang Shui still survived with good social skills and the help of Brother Hei.

After he learned that the awakened people of the life department could participate in the mission at a minimum, he did not hesitate to switch to the life department and bid farewell to the world of the strong.

The awakened person of the life system, the system exchange list authority is only 30% of the combat system, and basically there will be nothing that directly enhances the combat power.

The rewards for completing any quest will also be replaced with something related to productivity.

Therefore, the life system will only get weaker and weaker, and it will be more and more difficult to pass the task, and if you are lucky, you can hug the thighs of the combat department that are lined up together, and if you are unlucky...... According to Brother Hei's suggestion, Wang Shui should find a small guild to add to it and do coolies in exchange for the high-authority assistance of the guild's thighs.

However, the first official task is to find the thighs, even if Wang Shui doesn't care about face, no guild is willing to waste time covering a newcomer like him.

A wave of melancholy and weakness of heart enveloped him all the way to the center of the mission.

It is a huge white brick and stone plaza with a huge stone ball statue in the middle, arched like a chess piece with a huge round platform.

Some of the ancient stone squares are so abruptly embedded in the very center of the steel city.

As long as you walk up to the square, you can connect the stone ball through your personal [computing terminal], and you can view, pick up, and start tasks anywhere in the square.

Therefore, although there are many people in the huge square, not everyone is crowded in front of the stone ball statue in the middle.

The white light at the beginning and end of the mission flashed all the time, and some of the Awakened were teleported away or teleported back in the white light. The guys who were ready to go and the returnees in the emergency cabin alternated their work in an orderly manner.

However, they are not numerous, or rather, they do not make up a large proportion of the crowd in the square. Most of the people in the huge square are the vendors who set up their stalls here and the people who come here to buy.

Yes, that's right, Mission Square is also the largest wild stall market, where stalls are allowed by default, and there is no tax, much better than the system's Awakened Mall, the online mall takes a 20% rake, and the offline only needs a fist, and the fist is big enough, you can have a stall.

But everything that is prosperous has nothing to do with aqua regia.

I was a little hungry, I didn't wash my bath, I didn't change my clothes, and Wang Shui wandered around the periphery without any sense of existence.

The closer to the booth in the center of the stone ball, the higher the rank, and he was only worthy of dangling on the periphery.

But he's also here to shop, to buy equipment that matches his level, and he's going to leave here tomorrow.

Thinking Connect [Computing Terminal], this virtual machine that occupies a small amount of his biological brain computing power, can achieve a very strong data computing effect, which is directly reflected in the vision screen pop-up window in the brain.

"Personal Information." He silently gave instructions in his heart.

[Name: Wang Shui]

[Code: Half a bottle of water]

[Archive: Human (First Series Terran) - Male - AM101C0622]

[Class: None (Awakened)]

[Level: Level 1 (Tier 0)]

[Health: 100% (Simple Quantification of Life Activity)]

[Energy 1:50/50 (1st Order Non-Attribute Energy)]

[Physical fitness: 1.12] (comprehensive quality such as strength and physique)

[Coordination: 1.77] (Body Coordination, Nerve Reflexes, etc.)

[Perception: 0.82] (observation ability, environmental acuity, etc.)

[Thinking: 1.88] (comprehensive ability to think, learn, calculate, etc.)

[Mind: 1.22] (Soul, Spirit, Will, Concentration, etc.)

[Talent Awakening: Arrogant Knower (Dark Silver): You can't get a transcendent career, you can't change your bloodline, you can only learn skills through learning, your learning ability is not limited, and your learning ability is greatly enhanced. 】

———— master skills————

【Forging (Advanced)】、【Mechanical Engineering (Advanced)】

———— Alchemy Array————

[Array Interaction], [Array Computing Terminal]

……

……

No, at the first level of the zero order, the five basic attributes hovered around 1 point of the standard human, and the perception was even lower than that of ordinary people.

The only thing worth taking a second look at is the Dark Silver Talent Awakening ability.

According to Brother Hei:

The [Dream System] divides all the information according to the intensity, with [gray, white, green, blue, gold, and dark gold] as the main gears, of course, these gears refer to items of the same level, and the equipment of the first order of gold is not a little worse than the third order of gold.

What Brother Hei means is that there is no silver in the official classification given by the system, just because silver is rare, after all, the classification is based on strength, and there are occasional silver items or skills among the awakened, and it is not that there is no rarity.

Underneath the combined feeling, it is somewhere between blue and gold.

Therefore, the talent of the [Know-it-alle" is rare, but it is not very strong, and even the negative effect is too obvious.

If you can't get a transcendent profession, you will directly cut off the safest and most systematic path of transcendent cultivation;

The bloodline cannot be changed, and with the lower limit of human ability and growth rate, it is quite painful in both the early and late stages.

The most important thing is that skills can only be obtained through learning, which seems to be a simple description, and its effect directly makes it impossible for aqua regia to directly obtain skills through systematic indoctrination!

Others are playing or buying what powerful skills they can get, and they learn it directly with a clapping of their hands, and with a little practice, they will have an epiphany, and the next world will directly start to kill the whole audience.

But Wang Shui can't, let alone clapping his hands, he can't even instill knowledge for a long time, in fact, he doesn't understand what the "learning" in this "can only learn skills through learning" means.

The only two skills he has mastered now, [Forging] and [Mechanical Engineering], were obtained by being captured as a coolie by a large arms company when he was doing the awakening mission in the first world, and he worked for a whole month of iron.

In the past half a year in the city, Gou has been brushed up to the advanced level by his daily part-time job.

In this way, it is true that the learning ability has been greatly enhanced, and the poor buddies in the slums are amazed by the rapid progress of the repair technology of Wang Shui.

But! In particular, the advanced scrolls of these two skills are only one or two thousand!

This is a full half a year, and the so-called [C] awakened people who start with the same number as Wang Shui, some have rushed to the third order in half a year, and even the latest batch of [E] newcomers, many of them have entered the first order and become official transcendentals.

The embarrassed predecessor Wang Shui is now dangling in front of a bunch of low-level stalls with a little hard-earned money earned in the past six months.

Until his wandering eyes were sucked by that touch of black.
