Facing Fang Linyan’s request, Conductor 17 said,

“Okay, please take out the unknown strange object and let me scan it…”

“During scanning, please do not move to avoid loss of relevant data.”

“The scan is complete. Please take back the unknown strange object.”

“Already transmitting data to the database…. the relevant price will be fed back in 10 seconds.”

Fang Linyan nodded. At this moment, he suddenly felt an indescribable pain and soreness in his spine. He hurriedly said to Christina,

“I am not feeling well!!”

“16 merit points.”

Christina said,

“Okay, please relax and don’t move. I will inject Diroan to relieve muscle spasm.”

Fang Linyan closed his eyes, feeling a cold medicine injected into his spine. The unbearable tingling and soreness were subdued. He suddenly frowned, because it seemed that something strange was mixed in the conversation just now.

“Hey, did you just talk?”

Fang Linyan spoke to Conductor 17.

Conductor 17 said blankly,

“Yes, I have fed back the estimated sale price.”

Fang Linyan said,

“I don’t seem to hear clearly, can you report it again?”

Conductor 17 said,

“Your quotation for this unknown strange object is: 16 merit points.”

Fang Linyan’s eyes lit up immediately, if he got these 16 merit points, his military rank could be promoted by one rank.

This Five-Faced Monster Box is worth more than I imagined.

But in a short period of time, the military rank did not seem to have an immediate effect on enhancing combat effectiveness.

Therefore, he quickly made a decision to focus on enhancing immediate combat power.

The description of the Five-Faced Monster Box was that when he carried this item to upgrade his skill, if the skill resonated with the mysterious power in this item, he would get an additional unique option bar to choose from.

The Five-Faced Monster Box was related to the advanced mechanical intelligence race in the universe.

Obviously, the skill Fang Linyan could resonate with must be Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4}.

However, the following 2 branch abilities [Drone] and [Machine Gun Turret] were both LV3, so which one should he enhance?

Fang Linyan hesitated for a moment, and he chose [Machine Gun Turret]! There was no doubt that the elite mechanical warrant officer had already started to give him great help.

Not only that, relying on his {Metal Touch} talent, the quality of the mechanical core produced by Fang Linyan would inevitably increase by half a level again,

The Five-Faced Monster Box was worth 16 merit points. If it could trigger resonance, it would definitely improve the quality of the elite mechanical warrant officer by another level!

The improvement of 1 and a half levels in combat power was astonishing.

Intuitively speaking, relying on the buff of the mechanical core, Fang Linyan could summon the elite mechanical warrant officer.

The mechanical core produced by {Metal Touch} could enhance it into a rare elite!

If the Five-Faced Monster Box was triggered, then its quality should be enhanced to a rare Boss-level creature!

Thinking of this, Fang Linyan was very excited. He decisively chose to enhance [Machine Gun Turret].

But when choosing to enhance, Fang Linyan suddenly got a prompt:

“Contestant ZB419, you have chosen to enhance Ability: [Infitas MK-2 Machine Gun Turret LV3].”

“Contestant ZB419, you carry a special item, Five-Faced Monster Box.”

“The chance of this enhance to resonate with the Five-Faced Monster Box is 70%, and the chance of failing to resonate is 15%. Do you want to continue this operation?”

Seeing this prompt, Fang Linyan’s vision blurred.

Obviously, this prompt had made it very clear. It was not like what he imagined before, once it didn’t resonate, there would be no negative effects at all.

So after thinking about it, he chose to give up and tried the other 2 options.

As a result, after trying to enhance [Infitas MF-1 Drone], the prompt was exactly the same as that of [Machine Gun Turret. 70% chance of resonating and a 15% chance of failure.

However, if he chose to enhance Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4}, the chance of resonating will increase to 95%, and the chance of failure was only 5%.

After some hesitation, Fang Linyan still chose to play safe and enhanced the Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4}……..

“Contestant ZB419, you are about to enhance Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4}.”

“You are about to consume 2 potential points and 3000 common points.”

“Special item: Five-Faced Monster Box and Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4} have resonated!!!”

“Determining data…”

“Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4} has enhanceable, high mutation features.”

“Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4} quality has been improved!!!”

“Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4} can be upgraded to Tier B Rare Class Ability: {War Machine Operator}”

“If this upgrade is implemented, the potential points and common points previously invested in Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4} will be reset to zero. Please choose carefully.”

“Would you like to perform this upgrade? Yes/No?”

Fang Linyan never expected that he was envious of Goat’s skill evolution before, but he actually encountered it himself!

He immediately chose yes without hesitation.

After a few seconds, he got a series of prompts:

Contestant ZB419, your Tier C Class Ability: {Combat Technology Support LV4} has been removed.

Contestant ZB419, you have obtained Tier B Rare Class Ability: [War Machine Controller LV1].

The [War Machine Controller] is a very rare class ability. It can summon powerful war machine companions and command them to attack the enemy. It can easily cause a bloodbath on the battlefield.

The higher the level of the {War Machine Operator}, the obvious the buff of the war machine companions. The current LV1 can increase the HP of the war mechanical creature you control by an additional 200 points, and any related skills have priority!

A: [Mechanical Gyrfalcon LV1], summon a fast-flying [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] to fight for you. The [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] is very ferocious and extremely agile. It has the functions of target marking, automatic warning, etc. Summoning a [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] will consume 30MP.

Upgrading this skill will also increase all the attributes of [Mechanical Gyrfalcon].

After learning this ability, you will be defaulted to master the manufacturing blueprint of the Mechanical Gyrfalcon Egg.

You can only have 1 [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] at a time.

B: [Mechanical Dire Wolf]. Summon a fierce [Mechanical Dire Wolf] to fight for you.

Upgrading this skill will also increase all attributes of the [Mechanical Dire Wolf].

After learning this ability, you will be defaulted to master the manufacturing blueprint of the Mechanical Dire Wolf Heart.

You can only have one [Mechanical Dire Wolf] at a time.

Explanation: You don’t need the relevant casting materials to summon [Mechanical Dire Wolf] and [Mechanical Gyrfalcon].

However, if you can build casting materials (Mechanical Gyrfalcon Egg) and (Mechanical Dire Wolf Heart) by yourself according to the relevant blueprints, then the mechanical creature you summon will become more powerful.

Fang Linyan’s eyebrows twitched just seeing “any related skills have priority”. The excitement was beyond words.

When he read until the end, he already clearly felt the power of Tier B Rare Class Ability.

Immediately afterward, the attributes of the [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] and the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] appeared before him.

Stamina: 20, survivability is always an important point that mechanical creatures cannot ignore.

Perception: 6, the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] has the shared vision of the [Mechanical Gyrfalcon]. It also has its own night vision ability, so it has a very clear view of the surrounding environment.

Active Ability: [Bite], the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] pounces on the enemy, bites and tears the opponent fiercely, making it fall into an unconscious state. It will deal 30 damage to the enemy regardless of defense and stun him for 3 seconds. [Bite] must be launched within 15 meters of the enemy. The cooldown is 5 minutes.

Passive Ability: {Tech Suppression}. The technology content of the [Mechanical Dire Wolf]’s built-in smart chip is about equal to the technological level of human beings in 2040. Therefore, when the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] enters the world before 2040, it is defaulted to have hacker ability.

Passive Ability: {Inherit}, the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] can inherit most of the basic abilities of the summoner.

Explanation: This machine is implanted with a friend or foe identification system. Based on the principle of occultism, even if the [Mechanical Dire Wolf]’s attack is a stray bullet or a misfire, it will not cause damage to the summoner or friendly allies.

Explanation: Once the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] is destroyed, you can only summon it after half an hour.

If you take the initiative to deactivate the [Mechanical Dire Wolf], the cooldown time will be reduced to 5 minutes. However, this operation can only be performed in a non-combat state. The reading time for deactivating is 30 seconds. It will be interrupted if there is interference during the period.

Explanation: After the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] is summoned, the exterior will be covered with a layer of camouflage flesh coating. The default appearance is dog/wolf (random type). It can also be set according to the summoner’s preferences.

TL: Can’t tell if [Mechanical Dire Wolf] is more powerful than elite mechanical warrant officer …
