In the craftsmen district, Sky Dragon finally saw other creatures besides insects—a green-skinned Skrull!
It was clear that this Skrull was a "Spiritual Master," dressed in a fire-red robe, most likely from the Raging Sun Empire.
He was sitting on a wooden chair, intently looking at a stack of thick blueprints he held in his hands.
He was also muttering to himself, "Perhaps I should modify this insect's thighs to enhance its jumping ability... The elytra need to be modified too, they are too small now and it can't fly fast... Should I use metal, or composite materials?"
Facing him was a giant earthy-yellow beetle.
The beetle's forehead was emitting a thin smoke, and its already very hard exoskeleton had been fitted with a layer of metal plate, enhancing its defense.
Moreover, other parts of the beetle's body were also being designed; evidently, this Skrull intended to overhaul it completely.
Not far from this Skrull, Sky Dragon saw a purple-skinned Pikachu.
