The Legendary Mechanic - Chapter 163

Chapter 163


Sunworm's nozzle, duct, and fuel tank were integrated as one . It looked like a heat insulating metal tube, about an arm's width . It could be tied to the arm or calf . It looked a little like a beetle, and its 'pincers' were used to stabilize the leather metal pins .

He tied the Sunworm onto the inner side of his left arm, and it seemed bloated . However, such a load could be ignored for a person with 69 Strength .

Sunworm is most suited to be used as mecha module, and it can be integrated into my self-created lightweight mecha . Han Xiao could not stop thinking of new ideas for his lightweight mecha . Since he already had ideas, as well as Fabian's transport aircraft on lease, he started fixing his mecha before travelling to the novice village .

At that time, an Asian man whose head was full of white hair walked toward him . He stared at Han Xiao's High Ghost sniper rifle and curiously muttered, "That's right . It is an electromagnetic weapon!"

He then turned and asked Han Xiao, "Can you sell this to me? I'm willing to pay 500,0… no, 1,000,000!"

Han Xiao observed him for a second and already had some gut feels . Yet, he pretended to be confused and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am Lei Zhen Yu . Lu Cheng invited me over as his Machinery Engineering consultant . You look like a Mechanic too . You should have heard of my name . "

Han Xiao remained silent .

"Don't tell me you have not heard of my name . Or are you a self-taught mechanic? So unusual . " Lei Zhen was surprised . He shook his head and said, "I want this electromagnetic sniper; how about you quote a price?"

"Do I look like I'm in need of cash?" Han Xiao pointed at that priceless components that were lying on the truck's seat .

Lei Zhen Yu then understood . "You are a self-taught mechanic . I can teach you some skills in exchange for this sniper of yours . You definitely need a master like me to guide you . Only through listening to the wise words of your seniors can you succeed . I can tell that deep down inside, you have always wanted to have a master to learn from . Here, the doors are opened for you . This is your chance . If you miss it, you will regret for life . "

He did not know that this electromagnetic sniper rifle was made by Han Xiao . From what he knew, self-taught mechanics were often weak . Hence, he wanted to nab that sniper by teaching Han Xiao some new skills . As a mechanic master, he did not usually go around teaching other people . By giving Han Xiao the chance, he thought that it was worth it to exchange it for the electromagnetic sniper rifle, as long as the other party was humble enough .

Han Xiao's eyes twitched . It was the first time he had ever met someone who was so shameless and full of himself . With just a bit more, both of their skills would have been on par .

Actually, Han Xiao knew of Lei Zhen Yu's background . He was a well-known and skillful master mechanic in Aquamarine . So, he was not wrong about saying that he was a master . He belonged to the same era as Old Man Lu and had already retired decades ago . Both he and Old Man Lu did not have the master demeanor and looked disappointing to most .

Han Xiao knew why Lei Zhen Yu appeared at Black Pine . It was related to Old Man Lu's four blueprints mission, and coincidentally, Lei Zhen Yu happened to be part of this secret mission .

In the past, Lu Cheng abandoned his daughter, who was only a few years old, and left her in the care of Old Man Lu . He ventured into the wild and became a warlord . Because of this incident, he had a fight with Old Man Lu, who was unable to understand his choices at that time . The relationship between the father and son was so tensed that it was as though they were strangers .

Lu Cheng slowly climbed up and became the strongest warlord on the Southern Continent . He was always facing various dangers .

On the surface, Old Man Lu seemed as though he did not want any affiliation with his son . However, he was secretly following Lu Cheng closely and even requested that his old friend, Lei Zhen Yu, move to Black Pine to help and protect Lu Cheng . Lu Cheng knew nothing about the pact . He was shocked as he thought that he had managed to invite a great master all by himself .

This might be the moment for the four blueprints . Lei Zhen Yu had to leave Black Pine due to some other matters . Old Man Lu used another method to help Lu Cheng as he did not wish to meet his son in an awkward situation . He left the blueprints behind and left for the Western Capital, and his current whereabouts were still not known .



Maybe that's what they call a father . Han Xiao sighed . Why was Zhu Zi Qing's 'The View of my Father's Back' such a classic? Maybe because people with more experiences would be able to resonate with that story . Even Old Man Lu, a foul old stick, had his own worries .

Han Xiao calmed himself and said, "I can exchange with you . I want advanced knowledge .

Based on past memories, Lei Zhen Yu knew some advance knowledge . Yet, players were unable to acquire the knowledge from him . Even so, Han Xiao decided he want to give it a try .

Lei Zhen Yu earnestly said, "Kid, don't be too ambitious . You are a self-taught mechanic . Your standard is not enough for you to be able to understand advance knowledge . How about I teach you something else instead?"

"No, I only want advance knowledges . "

"But you won't understand . "

"That's even better; you don't have to worry that I will learn it . I'll just look at it for an hour . Take it as I am just being curious, okay?"

Lei Zhen Yu was speechless . Advance knowledge was very precious, and it could be considered a secret wild card . It was crucial that the knowledge was highly conserved . Even though he was really curious about the structure of the electromagnetic sniper, it was definitely not worth exchanging it with the priceless knowledge . Even though Han Xiao said he might not understand, he did not want to take the risk at all .

Lei Zhen Yu contemplated for a while and insisted, "I can't teach you the advance knowledge, but I can use the knowledges to create a weapon in exchange for yours . "



Sure enough, it was not easy to get his hands on the advance knowledge . Han Xiao was already prepared for this outcome and was not depressed about it . Instead, he considered Lei Zhen Yu's offer . If he could create an item to exchange for another item of the same level, there was nothing to lose .

However, this Ghost sniper had only reached this level through several upgrades . Han Xiao still wanted to use it, so he decided to create a new one to exchange with Lei Zhen Yu .

Han Xiao nodded in agreement and said, "I'll create a new one for you . "

"You made this sniper‽" Lei Zhen Yu shouted in disbelief . He thought Han Xiao looked like a newbie, and given that he was a self-taught mechanic, he expected the gun to be made by someone else . Unfortunately, it turned out to be the opposite .

All the six nations were secretly trying to invent an electromagnetic weapon, and none had even reached the experimental stage . If it was just creating a stable electromagnetic weapon, Han Xiao and Lei Zhen Yu were of the same standard . Lei Zhen Yu then remembered that he had portrayed himself as a 'great master' just now . Even with his old face, he felt ashamed and awkward .

How shameful to flaunt his skills in front of another mechanic of the same level .

Luckily, Lei Zhen Yu had thick skin . He corrected his attitude and treated Han Xiao as an equal .

At that time, the guards rushed over and whispered to Lei Zhen Yu that Han Xiao was also a legendary assassin .

Lei Zhen Yu was dumbfounded . He then observed Han Xiao for a while . Many mechanics were capable of experimenting . However, it was rare to find one who was also capable of fighting . His admiration for Han Xiao rose to an even higher level .

With good skills, one would be valued everywhere one went .



"Please come with me, I will show you my storeroom . " Lei Zhen Yu coughed as he tried to change the conversation topic to avoid awkwardness . The way he spoke to Han Xiao was suddenly more respectful .

Both arrived at the restricted area inside of the arsenal area . This was where the high-ranking researchers lived . Lei Zhen Yu's home was a spacious suite with all sorts of daily necessities . There were even wine cabinets and bookshelves that were made of high-quality wood—all of which was not cheap . By the corner of the room, there was a small, simple bed . He seemed to be leading a great life .

Lei Zhen Yu drew the wine cabinet open and activated the secret door button . The wine cabinet slide to a side and revealed a secret storeroom . He then called Han Xiao over . Inside, there was a row of glass showcase shelves that stood by the wall and contained various weapons . Lei Zhen Yu headed straight for the innermost showcase shelf .

"I have four items that were created using the advance knowledges . Let me introduce them to you . " Lei Zhen Yu pointed to the glass showcase shelf and started blabbering .

Lei Zhen Yu's advanced knowledges was geared toward miniature modifications . These four advanced weapons were all related to nano mechanisms .

'Type I Nurse' Bio-granule . It looked like a thick black substance, but in actual fact, it was able to divide into special nano-granules . They could then be inserted into one's body . When injured, poisoned, or bleeding, they would help one recover from the situation either by clearing the poison or speeding up blood clotting . It was a type consumable medical treatment .

U9 Colloidal Bulletproof Membrane . It looked just like ordinary glass on the surface . However, upon receiving any shock, it would briefly become non-solid to counteract kinetic energy and then solidify to trap any object . For instance, when a bullet is shot toward it, the bullet would be trapped, as though it was originally growing from within . Though it looked just like transparent glass, it was highly defensive and not easily damaged . It was most suitable for making bulletproof vests .

Fermi Condensate . It was a weapon that resembled the appearance of shaving foam and could be injected into a weapon to cool it down internally . It would reduce the cooldown time and then quickly degrade so as to prevent jamming up the weapon system . Sunworm's cooldown time, for example, was twenty seconds . With the use of Fermi Condensate, the cooldown time could be reduced significantly to three to five seconds . The effect was remarkable . It could also be consumed .

PE-0 Nano-synthetic Fiber . Similar to the biological tendons of a living organism, it was a black, shiny, tough nanomaterial . Twisting or stretching it would result in an unbelievable elasticity .

Han Xiao could only exchange the sniper for one of those items .
