Chapter 126 Mechanical Life Core
Today’s weather, yang yan wind, outside temperature, 50°C.
Time: [10:34:11]
Ye Qiyan awoke from his slumber, patted his cheeks, and skillfully opened his personal information.
Stamina and Mental Power were fully restored after a night’s rest.
Both reached their maximum values, which also meant that the next Sublimation could be performed.
Moreover, there were quite a few things to Sublimate today.
“What is the situation outside?”
Skillfully preparing breakfast for himself, through the Train window, the endless wilderness was stained with a layer of dark red.
Violent winds swept through, and the monsters that used to chase the Train vanished entirely.
“What the hell is this weather? yang yan wind? 50 degrees?”
The Sunny Doll, which had been transferred over by him earlier, informed him of today’s weather.
The corners of Ye Qiyan’s mouth twitched a few times. Hesitating for a moment, he walked to the door leading to the front of the Train and pushed it open a crack. A rolling wave of heat instantly struck, but the moment it entered this carriage, it was forcibly isolated, keeping the temperature inside the carriage unchanged.
He tried reaching one hand out into the front car.
The vicious burning sensation made him quickly pull it back.
“At this temperature, if we reach the next Platform… it’s a bit terrifying.”
He was doing fine; the existence of the Temperature-controlled carriage meant he didn’t have to care about these temperatures at all. Even the planting carriage and Hive Carriage in the back had self-temperature regulation functions, though they required consuming more basic resources, which he could afford.
But what about the others?
Pulling up the Light Screen, inside the public Chat Room, very few people were speaking.
However, it wasn’t hard to figure out the reason from the current content in the Chat Room.
[“It’s so hot… I’m going to die…”]
[“The water poured on my body dries in a moment. It’s okay in the carriage, soaking in water barely keeps me alive, but what should we do if we enter the station? Can we really not get off? If we miss a station, won’t we fall behind others, not to mention there are guild tasks…”]
[“Go to the city’s Trading Platform to buy some cooling things. Not getting off is definitely not an option. Our guild has also set a quota; if we don’t go down to collect resources, who knows when we’ll be able to upgrade the Train to level four?”]
[“Heh, those guys must have had news early on, mmp, all the props related to lowering the temperature have gone up in price! Damn! A bunch of doggish profiteers!”]
Props capable of knowing the weather in advance, much like the Sunny Doll, were definitely not owned by Ye Qiyan alone. It wasn’t surprising that such a thing happened.
Entering the next station in this kind of weather, for many people, not getting off might be the best method.
Temporarily casting this matter to the back of his mind, he looked at the other reward opened from the level 8 Treasure Chest yesterday.
Mechanical Structure Enhancement Core.
Used to complete a full-performance enhancement for a mechanical construct.
This core was to be used on Wall-E’s body.
Snapping his fingers and reaching out to touch it, Sublimation began.
[Stamina: 140 → 100]
[Mechanical Structure Enhancement Core → Limit · Mechanical Life Core]
[Limit · Mechanical Life Core]
[Used on mechanical constructs below level 8, it can make them become complete Mechanical Lifeforms and complete a full-structure enhancement.]
In Ye Qiyan’s hand, the original enhancement core had vanished, replaced by a constantly beating mechanical heart that was clearly composed of mechanical parts and Metal, yet strangely soft.
Mechanical Lifeform?
Ye Qiyan’s eyes flickered slightly as he looked ahead at Wall-E, who was cleaning the carriage.
“Wall-E, come here.”
The small robot obediently walked over. The moment it saw the mechanical heart in Ye Qiyan’s hand, the smart chip that brought it emotions suddenly gave rise to an unprecedented emotion.
That emotion was called desire.
“Want it?”
Wall-E nodded hurriedly.
“Then I’ll give it to you.”
Without teasing it, Ye Qiyan directly placed this Mechanical Life Core onto Wall-E’s blocky body.
The core emitted a dazzling radiance, filling the entire carriage with this light. Ye Qiyan instinctively closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the core had already vanished.
And Wall-E…
“Wall-E?”
The small blocky robot waved its mechanical arm and, as usual, habitually spun around happily.
It was still that Wall-E, and the Mechanical Life Core seemed to have not brought it any changes.
Ye Qiyan gently patted its forehead.
The system’s appraisal Light Screen appeared in due course.
[GT-1 Treasure-Hunting Robot: Wall-E]
[Permanently bound to Train Captain of E-3-1102, control/ownership/loyalty cannot be stolen]
[Race: Mechanical Lifeform]
[Talent: Treasure Seeker: Search for the most valuable items within any Platform. During this period, it cannot be observed by any entity other than its master, Train Conductor Ye Qiyan]
[Module: Housekeeping / Low-level Culinary / Garbage Collector / Emotion]
[The Mechanical Life Core will provide unlimited energy, but it still really likes charging.]
[Hobby: Likes being praised by its master, as well as charging.]
“Little fellow, well done, go charge.”
Although it didn’t know what it did well, Wall-E still spun around happily.
This time, its upgrade was quite successful.
First, a Train Coin is no longer needed every time the in-station treasure hunting function is used.
Secondly, Wall-E no longer needs to charge daily; that Mechanical Life Core is enough to provide it with all its energy.
And most importantly.
During the process of Wall-E hunting for treasure within the Platform, it cannot be observed by anyone other than him!
This also meant that no matter how dangerous the Platform was, even if he had no choice but to be unable to get off, as long as he sent Wall-E out, he would definitely gain something and return safely!
So strong!
This Mechanical Life Core was simply a divine artifact!
If there was another one of these things, and it was used on the Vigilant Sentry… just how strong would it become?
Ye Qiyan silently kept this prop in mind; if he encountered it in the future, he couldn’t miss it.
The only pity was that this thing could only be used on mechanical constructs below level 8. The Hunting Mechadragon was obviously not among them; otherwise, this thing could even solve the Hunting Mechadragon’s energy problem all at once.
Watching Wall-E happily run over to charge beside its exclusive generator, a smile couldn’t help but appear on Ye Qiyan’s face.
Compared to humans, a little fellow like this was even more likable.
Finishing the first Sublimation, today was not yet over.
Ye Qiyan hadn’t forgotten what he was going to do today.
The Train.
He was going to upgrade the Train from level 6 to level 7.
“Now, there are 132 Train Coins in total… Oh right, there are also 5 from the dragon card treasure, which makes 137. That should be enough to buy all the upgrade options.”
Ye Qiyan muttered to himself, suddenly feeling that he seemed to have said similar words before.
Silently looking at the pile of Train Coins in front of him, he always felt that he would soon turn into a pauper again.
