Chapter 11: New Companions, Next Stop "Carrion Town"

[Field Clearing Mission "Venomous Wasteland" Completed]

[Congratulations, Host, Acquired....]

[Blue Elite Blueprint "Licker"]

[Blue Elite Blueprint "Bionic Humanoid Combat Robot T-800"]

Zheng Mu held his breath in that instant.

After a long while, he finally let out a suppressed roar under the puzzled gazes around him.

"Damn!"

The appearance of the two blueprints gave Zheng Mu a sudden influx of knowledge about mechanical creations, just like the previous system reward of the Transformers' Optimus Prime blueprint.

At this moment, Zheng Mu had a terrifying reserve of knowledge.

However, this was not the reason for Zheng Mu's outburst.

Precisely, it was the system's reward of these two blueprints that could really solve his urgent problems.

One was from the Licker in the previous world's Resident Evil, and the other was a classic character from the Terminator.

The former was a mechanical creation made by the system, while the latter was a bona fide robot.

Immediately bringing up the panel, the next moment, the material list needed for the two blueprints appeared in front of Zheng Mu.

[Blue Elite "Licker"]

[Manufacturing Requirements: Blue High-Carbon Steel Metal Skeleton *1, Ferocious Beast Combat Core Motherboard *1, Ferocious Beast Venom Metal Generator *1, Metal Filled Muscles *10, Internal Circulation System *1]

[Blue Elite "Bionic Humanoid Combat Robot T-800"]

[Manufacturing Requirements: Blue High-Carbon Steel Humanoid Metal Skeleton *1, Artificial Intelligence Core *1, Bionic Human Muscle Tissue *1, Internal Circulation System *1]

These things would certainly leave ordinary people bewildered.

However, Zheng Mu, who had already adapted to his current role as a mechanic, quickly figured out the sources of these materials.

Without a doubt, now was the time for the mechanic's [Midas Touch] skill to shine.

Midas Touch can transform materials of similar types into functionally similar mechanical organs and tissues.

And precisely, at this moment, Zheng Mu had enough materials to create the Licker in its mechanical form first.

Optimus Prime picked up the three boss-dropped Blue Elite materials.

Looking at the three-meter-long "Bone-Faced Wolf Leader's Body," which was still emitting a strong stench of blood, Zheng Mu covered his nose and used Midas Touch without hesitation.

The next moment, the original flesh-and-blood Blue Elite material transformed into a cool mechanical structure resembling a ferocious beast's skeleton in a burst of light.

The cold metallic luster emitted a dazzling silver light.

It was the Blue Elite High-Carbon Steel Metal Skeleton, a major material in the Licker blueprint.

After that, three more hours of cooldown passed.

Using the same technique, he successively transformed the "Venomous Cat Demon's Brain" into a "Ferocious Beast Combat Core Motherboard."

He turned the "Slime's Toxic Core" into a "Ferocious Beast Venom Metal Generator."

He also selected some intact organs from a pile of Green-quality Bone-Faced Wolf and Cat Demon materials, transforming them into "Metal Filler Muscles" and an "Internal Circulation System."

More than half a day had passed.

Night had fallen again, but the Venomous Wasteland was now eerily quiet, with not a single monster in sight.

"Craft!"

At Zheng Mu's command, just like when Optimus Prime was first created, a dazzling array of lights intermingled to form a pitch-black metallic beast with sharp claws and fangs, as well as a flexible, serrated tongue that emitted a chilling gleam.

[Name: Licker]

[Type: Mechanical Creature (Created by Mechanic Zheng Mu)]

[Level: Blue Elite]

[Durability: 800/800]

[Attack Power: 160-480]

[Defense Power: 760]

[Skill 1: "Stealth Rush", a hidden and rapid movement skill with increased threat in the dark, no cooldown time]

[Skill 2: "Rend", an attack using sharp claws and a long tongue, inflicting massive damage with a chance of causing bleeding, no cooldown time]

[Skill 3: "Deadly Poison", the metal of the Licker contains a potent toxin, direct hits will cause the target to be poisoned]

[Skill 4: "Carrion Eater", can consume flesh to repair damaged body components through internal circulation]

[Skill 5: "Beast Instinct", Licker possesses a powerful ability to learn and adapt to the battlefield, capable of handling various levels of combat and making the most reasonable judgments]

Ecstatic, Zheng Mu couldn't help but run his hand over the Licker's metallic body. Its attributes were undoubtedly among the best in the Blue Elite category. In Zheng Mu's opinion, the Licker could single-handedly handle the three bosses he had just faced.

"Ha, an A-class Mechanic indeed! If the criteria for the career rank weren't so strict, this profession could easily be considered S-class," Zheng Mu excitedly cleaned up the battlefield and hopped into Optimus Prime's cockpit, heading towards his next destination.

On top of Optimus Prime, the Licker firmly gripped the roof. Zheng Mu had already realized the absurd potential of the Mechanic profession. Without mechanical creations, a Mechanic was a weakling compared to other professions. However, with powerful mechanical creatures, all other professions paled in comparison.

For instance, Zheng Mu didn't possess many offensive skills, and each one had a lengthy cooldown. However, the terrifying Licker had no MP or skill cooldown limitations and even had the ability to self-repair its body. It was nothing short of a powerful, long-lasting killing machine on the battlefield.

As these thoughts crossed his mind, Zheng Mu finally succumbed to fatigue, and without a shred of concern, he fell asleep in the wilderness.

Zheng Mu had already calculated the materials needed to create the T-800. His next destination, Corpse Town, would provide everything he needed. Unbeknownst to him, a team that included some familiar faces was also heading towards Corpse Town. Among them were his close friend Cai Shengkun and a character that even he found to be a headache.
