Mechanical Flesh

Steel chariot.

The locomotives returned one after another, and the news of the steel chariot's victory over the old city spread, and the steel chariot, which was originally extremely lively, became even more lively.

Xie and Liao were about to report the battle situation to Leader Lingyou, but they were stopped outside the door.

"You mean someone from the Black Steel Shelter is talking to the leader?"

Liao and Xie looked at each other. The Black Steel Shelter was always high above the others. Although the leader of Lingyou was in the Shelter, even if something happened, it was Ling You who took the initiative to report to the Shelter. The Shelter seldom sent people to the Steel Chariot. Except for the annual recruitment.

"There are still more than two months before the recruitment. Could it be that this year's recruitment has been advanced?" Liao asked in a low voice.

"It's possible!" Scorpion nodded, "However, it's also possible that he came for the Star Energy Stone."

Scorpion frowned. If the other party really came for the Star Energy Stone, it would be a little troublesome. If the other party came here at this time, it would definitely not represent the will of the sanctuary, but the will of an individual in the sanctuary. This person will not exceed M4 or P4 at most.

If they want to take away the Star Energy Stone, they may not be able to keep it on their own side. Most importantly, people who will shame the Star Energy Stone are usually not very generous. In return, there is even the possibility of prostitution for nothing.

This kind of thing happened in Lionheart Castle. The Lion King once obtained a piece of rare metal. He originally wanted to exchange his child for a chance to step into the Black Steel Shelter. As a result, the news leaked. A person from the Shelter M4, at the cost of a piece of mechanical armament, forced the Lion King to give up the alien metal.

"Don't worry, the leader of Lingyou is not comparable to the Lion King. Even if the person who comes is really M4 or P4, the other party may not dare to mess around." Xie whispered.

Liao nodded. Lingyou is not only powerful, but also more confident than the leaders of the other gathering points. Ordinary M4 or P4 is not enough to make her bow her head.

After the two waited for a few minutes, Luan suddenly ran over.

"Captain, Qi Yuan is back, he came back with the sickle, and he didn't carry any star power stones with him." Luan whispered.

Qi Yuan is back?

Sickle was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and let out a sigh of relief.

"Just come back!"

The news of the mysterious disappearance of the remaining star energy stones has spread. Rumors have spread about the whereabouts of those star energy stones. Many people secretly pointed their finger at Qi Yuan. Combat strength, bringing back No. 1 and No. 2, this kind of rumor will only become more violent.

If Qi Yuan leaves without saying goodbye, it will undoubtedly confirm the rumor that he stole the remaining star energy stones. Dozens of star energy stones mean a huge fortune. It may not be able to protect Qi Yuan whose rumors are true.

Now that Qi Yuan is back, and he doesn't carry the Star Energy Stone with him, this can at least dispel some people's suspicions. Even if others doubt, they won't have any evidence. The whereabouts of the future will never be settled on his head.

With Qi Yuan's demonstrated strength, and the presence of himself and Xie, even if someone wants to pour dirty water on Qi Yuan, Qi Yuan can't do anything about it.

"Where is Qi Yuan now?" Xie asked.

"It seems to have gone to Master Qu's laboratory." Luan said in a low voice.

Liao heard the words and nodded.

"Let him stay in the composer's laboratory for a few days, and after the limelight passes, take him to the leader to see if he can get rid of the tricky baby on him."

At this moment, Liao and Luan saw a strange young man coming out of Lingyou's residence.

The faces of the two froze, there were very few people who were qualified to enter Lingyou's leader's residence, and even fewer people they didn't know when they entered.

Although the two of them couldn't judge the person's strength, they had both seen a fourth-level ability user, so they could tell at a glance that the person's strength was definitely not only a third-level ability user, but at least a fourth-level ability user.

"I just heard you talking about Qi Yuan?" The visitor said with a smile.

Liao and Xie looked at each other, unable to bear the shock in their hearts anymore.

He knows Qi Yuan!

This fourth rank from the Black Steel Shelter actually knew Qi Yuan!

Thinking of all the mysteries of Qi Yuan, Liao suddenly had some doubts, whether Qi Yuan was originally a resident of the sanctuary, but just left the sanctuary for some reason.

Only in this way can we explain why Qi Yuan is not at all enthusiastic about stepping into the shelter.

Feeling that he has touched the truth, another doubt arises in his heart.

Why did he suddenly mention Qi Yuan?

Could it be that he came for Qi Yuan?

Liao's thoughts turned sharply, and he soon realized that since the visitor had mentioned Qi Yuan, he would not be able to hide the news about Qi Yuan from him, so he simply told the truth.

"Qi Yuan is in Master Qu's laboratory."

"Master Qu? That old man Qu Shanhai? Is he still alive?" The visitor smiled.

"My whole life's hard work was stolen by someone, but I didn't die of anger. Qu Shanhai's cultivation skills have really improved!"

Liao and Xie were taken aback when they heard this, as if some secrets they had never known were revealed in this sentence.

"I haven't seen this old man Qu Shanhai for some years, please lead the way, I'll go and see him."

Liao gave Xie a look, and then led the visitor away, while Xie quickly walked into Ling You's residence.

The young man talked with Liao while walking, and he seemed to be easy to deal with. He didn't hide his background, and Liao finally knew his identity.

As guessed before, he is a fourth-order mechanic, but he is not an ability user, but a mechanic, and he is a fourth-order mechanic from the biological and mechanical laboratory!

The name is - Su Li!

Although Su Li said that he was going to see the music master, he was obviously more interested in Qi Yuan. He asked several questions about Qi Yuan along the way, and Liao also told them one by one. Qi Yuan obviously had no malice.

"You mean that Qi Yuan killed several peak third ranks last night?" Su Li couldn't believe his ears.

Ryo nodded and continued:

"Qi Yuan is very powerful and has unlimited potential. This time, he is very likely to pass the shelter's recruitment assessment and step into the Black Steel Shelter!"

"If what you said is true, then it is very likely that he will pass the shelter assessment and recruitment assessment! This will save me a lot of trouble!" Su Li said to himself.

Su Li's words to himself did not avoid Liao, and Liao's heart trembled slightly after hearing it. He just tried it out, but Su Li revealed the information he wanted.

Judging from Su Li's soliloquy, Qi Yuan didn't seem to be an aborigine in the shelter, otherwise he wouldn't need to take the assessment route when he stepped into the shelter.

Soon the two came to the entrance of the composer's studio, and Liao whispered:

"Master Qu set up a lot of traps inside, I'll go in and report first to avoid accidental injury!"

Su Li nodded lightly and signaled Liao to report. Although the traps here may not be able to deal with a fourth-level mechanic, he is not here to fight, and Qi Yuan can't be exposed to the eyes of some caring people.

Soon Liao came back, there was only one apprentice with him, Qu Shanhai did not come out to greet him, neither did Qi Yuan.

Su Li didn't care, and followed the apprentices who greeted him all the way to Master Qu's laboratory.

Qu Shi and Qi Yuan were both in the laboratory. After seeing Su Li's arrival, Qu Shi didn't even lift his eyelids, and was still doing mechanical assembly there, as if he hadn't seen him.

Old man Qu is full of confidence! Qi Yuan said silently in his heart.

Ling You probably wouldn't be so arrogant in front of a Tier 4 mechanic, but Master Qu did just that.

Fortunately, Su Li didn't care about Master Qu's attitude. He walked up to Master Qu and put his hand on the half-assembled machine.

There was only a click sound, and the mechanical parts placed on the workbench seemed to be half alive, and they were floating around the machine and assembled automatically. The composer had assembled for a long time, but only half of the machine was completed. Finally, it took less than ten seconds to assemble it by myself.

Master Qu put down the tools in his hand, and gave Su Li a hard look.

"You kid, every time you come here, you know how to make trouble!"

Su Li was not annoyed either, and said with a smile:

"Old man, I'm making trouble, I'm helping you!"

The music master snorted arrogantly, obviously not appreciative.

"Tan Qiu is now in a critical period to be promoted to a fourth-level researcher. Why are you running around when you're not watching!" Qu Shi said.

Su Li smiled.

"Tan Qiu's promotion to the fourth rank has been settled and there will be no surprises. Even if there is any trouble, she can handle it by herself."

Su Li made a look.

"We haven't seen each other for so long, find a quiet place to catch up!"

Master Qu looked at Su Li in surprise, then nodded and said:

"Go to my lounge."

Su Li followed Master Qu, Su Li's lips moved slightly, Master Qu frowned slightly, and then said to Qi Yuan:

"Qi Yuan, you come here too, get to know Su Li first, and when you enter the shelter in the future, you can ask him for help if you have any trouble."

Several apprentices heard this and cast envious eyes at Qi Yuan. Master Qu's words meant that Qi Yuan would definitely step into the Black Steel Shelter, and had even started to pave the way for his future life in the Shelter. This kind of treatment is simply enviable to the point of separation!

Qi Yuan frowned, he knew that Master Qu's words were just an excuse.

Although Su Li didn't say it clearly, he also vaguely guessed that Su Li probably didn't come here this time to catch up with the music master, but came here specially to find himself.

After the three of them entered the lounge, Master Qu locked the door and turned on the anti-eavesdropping mode at the same time. Then he looked at the two of them and asked with a frown:

"You knew each other before?"

Qi Yuan nodded.

"We met once in Blackstone Town."

Su Li looked at Qi Yuan with a smile.

"It can be seen from your expression that you don't seem to want to see me!"

"Because you mean trouble! And big trouble!" Qi Yuan said.

"You guessed it! Tan Qiu's evaluation of you is correct, you are really a smart person?" Su Li said.

I also want to know if Tan Qiu's evaluation of you is just two words - idiot! Qi Yuan couldn't help complaining in his heart.

From the first time we met, this Su Li looked not very smart. If I had to describe it, it was probably the kind who was sold by Tan Qiu and had to count the money for her.

"Tell me, what did Tan Qiu ask you to come to me?" Qi Yuan asked directly.

Su Li restrained his expression, and said seriously: "You will be in trouble soon, the trouble from the Black Steel Shelter, to be precise, the trouble from a fourth-rank researcher in the biology and machinery laboratory! "

It really is a big trouble!

Qi Yuan's heart sank. The hole that Tan Qiu dug before had finally gone wrong. If the hole was not handled properly, he might be caught in the laboratory and become a specimen for experiments.

Master Qu's brows also frowned. Although Qi Yuan has some miraculous features, he is only a second-level ability user after all.

The fourth-tier researcher is already an absolute high-level researcher in the biological and mechanical laboratory. Most of the research projects of this kind of person are mechanics at the level of walkers, genetic fighters at the bloody level, awakeners at the glory level, and heart-corrosion levels. A polluter, or an elite worm should never have anything to do with a second-level ability user. These are two completely different worlds.

"Is there a problem with Tanqiu's research project?" Qi Yuan frowned slightly.

Su Li nodded, and roughly explained the cause of the trouble.

After obtaining those experimental samples from Qi Yuan, Tan Qiu didn't have much hope at first, but just set up a small project, but he didn't expect that in the follow-up research, this project had unexpected results. result.

It was also this small project that directly promoted Tan Qiu to complete the leap from a third-level researcher to a fourth-level researcher.

As the youngest fourth-level researcher, Tan Qiu's rapid promotion naturally attracted the attention of many people. Another fourth-level researcher, Feng Gan, also followed Tan Qiu. Negligently, he stole the biological samples left by Tan Qiu's project, and it seemed that he had researched something, so he began to secretly send people to search for the source of those biological samples.

Qi Yuan's complexion became ugly. If it was an ordinary trouble, he still had a way to deal with it, but facing a fourth-level researcher, he was completely like a mantis. Once the other party pursued him, his only end was to become the other party. experimental specimens.

"It's him again!" The composer snorted coldly.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, this guy is still so stubborn!"

Su Li nodded.

"Back then, Feng Gan stole your experimental results before he was promoted from a research assistant in the Biology and Mechanics Laboratory to a full-time researcher. No one thought that he could be promoted so quickly. If Tan Qiu hadn't broken his record, he would be promoted to a full-time researcher now. Still the fastest promoted fourth-level researcher in the Biology and Mechanics Laboratory."

Qi Yuan took a look at Master Qu, feeling as if he ate a big melon unintentionally.

A high-ranking fourth-level researcher actually started by stealing the experimental results of the composer, and has climbed to his current position!

If it wasn't for this melon that has already affected him, Qi Yuan would very much like to sit on a small bench and secretly watch a play!

"Is this kind of academic fraud allowed?" Qi Yuan asked.

If the order of the Black Steel Shelter is so chaotic, that is the most terrifying thing.

In the vast territory governed by the Black Steel Shelter, no one can violate the will of the Black Steel Shelter.

If a fourth-tier researcher can break the rules of the game so wantonly, it is definitely not good news for him.

"Of course this kind of thing is forbidden!"

Su Li shook his head and explained:

"That incident was full of turmoil back then, because there was no evidence, and Feng Gan was backed by others, so it finally fell through. Feng Gan also took advantage of the situation to get out of the whirlpool. After so many years, Feng Gan never did it again. Anything out of the ordinary, I have always cherished my feathers, so this matter was forgotten."

"After Feng Qian climbed to the position of a fourth-level researcher with his own strength, the doubts he had had naturally disappeared. No one would believe that a fourth-level researcher would steal the experimental results from the small laboratory at the gathering point! "

"This time, Feng Qian made a sudden move, which also exceeded Tan Qiu's expectations. She never thought that Feng Qian would bribe one of her experimental assistants just to steal some remaining biological samples!"

"Actually, this matter is still a secret. Tan Qiu did not publicize it, because it is calculated that no one will believe that a fourth-level researcher will steal the remaining biological samples."

"That's because you don't know Feng Gan!" Qu Shi snorted coldly, and continued.

"Feng Gan has a very strong purpose in doing things. He will take risks to do so. There must be his reasons. This matter will definitely bring him greater benefits than risks!"
