Reboot: Mechanic

After the soldiers obtained the signature from Shi Tian and reassurance that the items would be completed in 3 days, they promptly left the scene.

Their job was only to deliver the material to Shi Tian and nothing else. They don't dare to overdo or do less than what they were told.

Shi Tian also didn't stop them from leaving.

In a way, these soldiers were merely considered small fry, so talking with them wouldn't benefit him anyway.

"So that's all the material huh," Mary asked from the sideline, seeing Shi Tian recounting the boxes of materials again once he carried them in the Iron Sentinel.

Shi Tian clasped his hands and nodded.

"Yeah, I'm surprised that Commander Phoebe was actually able to deliver them so quickly. The materials I've demanded aren't small." He then said, feeling quite proud at how much material they had gained.

As he was feeling proud, Mary suddenly walked forward and pushed him aside softly.

"What are you doing?" Shi Tian asked in a dumbfounded tone.

"Confiscating the materials duh." Mary rolled her eyes and snorted.

Did he really think she would forget about what she had said?

She had already said that she would confiscate all non-related materials to craft the Spymon EMP item. And she was definitely going to see through it with no exception.

"Oh come on, Mary. I'm already broke and you're going to confiscate all of them?" Shi Tian smiled bitterly.

"Fine, you can have them back." Mary suddenly stepped back and smiled.

But before Shi Tian could cheer, Mary continued her word. "But then you can try to craft the Spymon by yourself all alone. Let's see if you can meet the deadline like you have just confidently said to her soldiers."

Instantly, Shi Tian's mood went from joy to depression.

"You are really a devil…" He murmured, realizing that Mary was extremely cold-blooded.

"Alright, stop sulking and bring in the necessary materials inside." Mary turned around and began walking back inside.

And she continued, "If you do a good job. Then maybe I might just leave you with some materials, but that's only if you do a good job."

"Consider it done," Shi Tian clenched his fist.

As Mary prepared to set up the workshop for them to craft, Shi Tian swiftly carried in the necessary materials needed inside.

Shi Tian carefully sorted through the delivered materials, separating those essential for crafting the EMP devices from the rest. Boxes of metallic components, intricate circuits, and advanced alloys were neatly arranged on the work table.

As Shi Tian organized the materials, Mary retrieved a holographic blueprint of the Spymon EMP device. The blueprint projected a three-dimensional model, allowing them to analyze the intricate design and identify the specific components required for each EMP unit.

Although the two were somewhat familiar with the Spymon device, having the blueprint to follow made things easier.

"Nathan, have you grabbed the tools—" Before Mary could even finish her sentences, she already saw him working on it.

Shi Tian fetched an array of specialized tools, each designed for precise and delicate work. Micro Soldering equipment, nanowire cutters, and molecular adhesives were among the tools laid out for the crafting process.

"You were saying?" Placing the tools neatly on the worktable, Shi Tian asked her.

"Nothing, let's just get to work," Mary shook her head.

Time was ticking down, so there was no need for the small talk. That could be saved for later on once they are finished.

So with a keen focus, Shi Tian and Mary began integrating the various components.

Tiny nanocircuits were delicately connected, and microprocessors were calibrated to ensure the EMP devices would function flawlessly.

Mary took charge of the calibration process, adjusting the electromagnetic frequencies and power levels of each EMP unit. This step was crucial to achieving the desired effect without causing unintended disruptions.

While Mary was working on that, Shi Tian worked on installing the condensed Source Crystal into each EMP device.

The Source Crystal acted as the energy source, but that wasn't enough. Compact, high-capacity batteries capable of providing sufficient power for the electromagnetic pulses were carefully integrated into the design as well.

Throughout the crafting process, Mary conducted meticulous quality checks. She scrutinized every connection, ran diagnostic tests, and ensured that each EMP unit met the stringent standards required for deployment in the field.

Aware of the tight deadline, Shi Tian and Mary worked seamlessly, utilizing their complementary skills. Mary's proficiency in mechanics and Shi Tian's understanding of electromagnetic technology created a synergistic workflow.

"Nathan, how many more do we have left?" Mary asked, her eyes focused on the computer screen.

Shi Tian made a swift calculation and told her, "So far, we've only made 4 even with our current speed."

"And how much time has passed?"

"Around 4-5 hours or so."

Given that they needed to be meticulous in every aspect, they couldn't afford to rush any steps and skip ahead.

Who would know what kind of problems would occur if they attempted to cut corners?

Mary sighed exhaustively and was starting to feel tired from working consistently without a break.

"Ugh, this is worse than fighting some monsters." She massaged her neck and complained slightly.

"If you're feeling fatigued, then just take a rest, Mary." Shi Tian suggested.

"I'm fine with finishing up the final touch."

Although this was repetitive and tedious, Shi Tian had to do similar tasks back when he had to craft numerous Claymore Mines without rest. Thus, he was used to such a working pace.

Mary was pondering about acting strong, but she still nodded her head in the end. This was the main reason why she couldn't handle the mechanic class despite being quite the prodigy.

The tedious and meticulous workload was simply too much for her. You must remain focused at all times or your work could risk being faulty in the end, causing you to waste hours of hard work for naught.

"Good luck, Nathan." Mary sent her regards as she lay on her chair, completely exhausted.
