Chapter 481 Who asked you to meddle in other people's business?
"Opportunity? Haven't I given you enough?"
The Second Elder, Pao Zhen, seemed to have lost his patience and sneered:
"You all know, don't you? The two major tasks I gave you this time, whether it's the Thousand Manifestations Umbrella or those children, are both crucial to the development plan of the Mechanized City. This shows... how much I trust you! And what have you done? You haven't completed a single one! You're truly useless!"
That's absolutely true.
Sangluo's personal strength was already extremely formidable, reaching the peak of the seventh rank.
One more step forward and you'll be at the leader level.
In addition, his left hand and limbs were fitted with mechanical devices.
It greatly enhances one's strength, making it both offensive and defensive.
Among the seventh rank, very few can rival him.
Agatha is a wind-elemental awakener.
He's not even eighteen yet, and he's already a sixth-tier powerhouse. His future is equally promising.
The duo's combination was outstanding, even in the highly skilled Mechanical City.
Therefore, the elders entrusted these two people with two important tasks.
Unfortunately, Sangluo and his companion failed, much to the disappointment of the elders.
"Guards! Take them away and execute them!"
As the Second Elder shouted, more than a dozen people rushed in through the door. The weakest of these people were at least fourth or fifth level, and the two leaders were at seventh level. The group immediately pinned Sang Luo and his companion to the ground.
"Just kill me! I don't want to become a robot!" Agatha screamed, her eyes filled with terror and resentment.
She was just a girl under eighteen years old, and she was actually very afraid of dying.
But if it meant having her hands and feet cut off and becoming a half-human, half-machine, she would rather die!
Unfortunately, she was seriously injured at the moment and was lying on the ground unable to move.
They couldn't even struggle; they could only let the guards grab them.
But just when Agatha was feeling utterly desperate...
"Second Elder, this mission failure is all my fault! If anyone should be punished... punish me alone!"
Sangluo suddenly struggled violently, shouting, "As the captain, it was my poor decision-making that led to the mission's failure. If anyone should be punished, it should be me!"
"Captain, what nonsense are you talking about? Who asked you to meddle in other people's business?" Agatha's beautiful eyes widened, her gaze almost bursting.
Upon hearing Sangluo's words, a painful memory flashed before his eyes.
That was the first time she had gone on a mission with Sangluo.
At that time, Sangluo was still able to carry all four limbs.
At that time, she was only fourteen years old, very weak, and inexperienced.
Ultimately, her mistake led to the mission's failure!
Agatha originally thought she would have her hands and feet cut off and be turned into a monster.
However, Sangluo knocked her unconscious when she was off guard.
When she woke up again, Sangluo had lost her left hand and left foot, and replaced them with mechanical hands and feet.
"You always act on your own initiative! Who asked you to save them!" Agatha roared, her eyes bloodshot.
She struggled to get up, but collapsed helplessly to the ground.
Even if she is at the sixth level, it would take her a long time to recover from a palm strike that comes from someone who is halfway to the ninth level.
However, the people present completely ignored her.
The elder looked at Sang Luo and sneered, "You'd better understand! If you're going to take the punishment for her, you'll have to endure double the punishment! Then... you won't be able to keep your hands and feet..."
When the city of the mechanical city was transforming soldiers, they were also selective in their selection.
Sangluo is already over thirty years old, and reaching the eighth rank is his limit in this lifetime.
To further enhance his strength, the only option is to transform him into a cyborg.
In contrast, Agatha was an Awakened One, and at the age of seventeen, she was already a sixth-tier powerhouse.
Her potential is undoubtedly much greater, and there is no need to rush to change her.
"I'm the captain! I'll take all the punishments myself!"
"Ah, Captain, no!"
……
On the other side, in Dragon City, inside the inner city, within the city lord's mansion.
"Ah Qiu, Dong Dong, take a look at this design. Can it be made?"
Inside the studio, Xiao Yu handed an A4 sheet of paper to A Qiu and Dong Dong and asked them a question.
We're getting closer and closer to the city of machines.
If all goes well, we'll be able to trade with the Mechanical City soon.
The Thousand Chance Umbrella will likely be traded away.
Therefore, Xiao Yu has been focusing on his research these past few days.
The first result was this design drawing.
However, Xiao Yu is not yet familiar with precision parts, and the two sisters will have to rely on the two sisters for the specific mechanical devices.
After all, professional matters should be handled by professionals.
"Lord City Lord, this blueprint is so strange. What is it for?" The two sisters huddled together, examining it carefully, but couldn't figure out what the design was for. Dongdong tilted her head and asked.
The design drawn by Xiao Yu was a square mechanical device.
It's obviously much more complicated than a bicycle.
However, it doesn't actually look particularly complicated.
Once you understand the function of this mechanical device, you can manufacture it accordingly.
"This device is called... a sewing machine!"
Xiao Yu pointed at it and introduced:
"It's used for processing clothing, and the principle is very simple. You see, this is called the machine head. The thread is wound onto it... Once all the accessories are installed, look at this foot pedal. When someone steps on it, it generates power to rotate the frame on the lower right, and then..."
"I see, it should be fine then."
After listening to Xiao Yu's introduction, A Qiu nodded thoughtfully.
Compared to Zhuge Liang's Divine Crossbow, this thing is far too simple to make.
The mechanical girl thought for a moment and said, "Lord City Lord, give us half a day and we can make a sample."
"Okay, once it's done, I'll call someone from the garment factory to come and try it out," Xiao Yu nodded and said.
He was thinking that this trip to the Mechanical City would not only allow him to recruit mechanical engineers, but also some women.
Previously, women had no status at all because they were weak.
But with sewing machines, women were able to make exquisitely beautiful clothes.
Once a group of excellent tailors is trained, Longcheng will have a new industry.
Xiao Yu has lost count of how many industries Longcheng has now.
"Lord City Lord!" At this moment, someone transmitted a message to Xiao Yu.
“Speak!” Xiao Yu thought to himself.
With his telepathic talent, he can freely connect and disconnect telepathically from others.
For example, Xiao Yu granted special privileges to the women of the Red Lotus Sect and the middle and upper management of Dragon City.
As long as these people are within ten thousand miles, Xiao Yu will know immediately if they send a telepathic message.
The person transmitting the message to him now is Danai, the captain of the Special Operations Team 3, who is in charge of guarding Jiebing Pavilion today.
"Lord City Lord! We're still several hundred miles away from the Mechanical City!"
Danai's voice rang in my ears again, tinged with a question: "Should we continue underground, or return to the surface?"
"Keep going! Show yourself when you're within a hundred miles." Xiao Yu thought for a moment and then said.
"Yes! Lord City Lord!"
