The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 99: Chapter 80: Innate Treasure Land (Part 4)

“If it weren’t for this storm that I couldn’t escape from, if it weren’t for my trust in his character, I wouldn’t have recommended you to him.”

“Looking at it now…”

“Everything turned out to be the best choice.”

Saying this, Yan Gaoyuan glanced to the side, where Yan Yue was already close to the Saber-toothed Tiger, petting it: “Yue’Er, let’s go.”

“Got it.”

Yan Yue patted the Saber-toothed Tiger and quickly walked over.

“Uncle Yan.”

Qin Jin looked at the other: “Anyway, there’s a room already prepared here for you, so I think you might as well move over directly.”

“It’s also to boost the popularity of this place.”

“Just stay once in a while.”

Yan Gaoyuan’s tone was steady: “Jin’Er, when you first wanted to move out of the house, I was strongly against it because I thought you were too young then.”

“But now, you’ve proven that you’ve really grown up.”

“You should have your own space.”

“Moving here might not be appropriate.”

“We’re leaving, Jin’Er, don’t forget to come home for dinner tonight.”

He left one last sentence and took the lead towards the front door, while Yan Yue, after saying goodbye, also departed together.

Inside the villa courtyard, only one person and one tiger remained.

Qin Jin went to the warehouse at one end of the courtyard and took out the meat chunks Chu Tianyi had prepared for the Saber-toothed Tiger, holding it in one hand and giving it a strong toss.

At the far end, the Saber-toothed Tiger swiftly caught it, devouring eagerly.

The sound of chewing arose.

“Eat up.”

“In the restricted area, you have helped me.”

“After some time, I’ll have to settle you back in the restricted area.”

He lifted his head to gaze at the sky.

Today is a bright, cloudless day.

Since the Star God’s emergence, the weather on the Mining Star has been getting better day by day.

Qin Jin looked at the sky, suddenly recalling the day when countless Rune Chains appeared in the sky, and the blade that reflected in the hearts of so many on the Mining Star.

“Eighth Realm, Martial God.”

He gently uttered the title, with an increasingly sharp demeanor.

“Step by step.”

“Starting from the Third Realm, from Innate!”

“I wonder, what kind of Secret Collection I harbor, what kind of talent it will reveal.”

…

Outside Xinyang District, to the east, about twenty kilometers away.

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the cosmic cargo bay descended slowly onto the refurbished broad surface.

At the moment of landing, the dome atop the cargo bay, and the specially made walls on all sides, automatically disassembled at this moment, the connections between them disconnected, gradually unfolding, and letting down to the four directions.

At this point.

Rather than calling it a cargo bay, it is more a super large movable factory.

Qin Jin and Wang Yao were in the waiting crowd on one side, and when the cargo bay landed, the staff of Star Ring Heavy Industries marched in, with Wang Yao retrieving her portable computer and bringing up a light screen, which she passed to Qin Jin.

“The initial design is out.”

“The stacking of Extraordinary Materials will raise the demand for Spiritual Index, increase driving requirements, raise spiritual consumption, thus… the entire Mecha will utilize some Extraordinary Materials, the rest with the currently best-fitting Dragon Bone N-7 type alloy as the main material.”

“The current preliminary design of the Mecha is divided into the main framework and different modules.”

“This is the most popular modular design on the market, making it convenient for you to upgrade and adjust, allowing for segmental plan supplementation.”

Speaking of this, she looked at Qin Jin: “Mr. Qin, did you bring the materials to be added to the Mecha?”

“I brought them.”

Qin Jin nodded.

Seeing this, Wang Yao was not surprised, as to her, a designer from Star Ring Heavy Industries, the expansion equipment is undoubtedly common.

“Let’s go, we’ll head to the materials department.”

“Let’s evaluate the Extraordinary Materials you brought and see where they fit the best.”

In exchange, the two joined the crowd.

Inside the materials department.

Except for Wang Yao, there were other staff here who, upon seeing the two enter, paused their actions, evidently prepared.

“Please, Mr. Qin.”

At the center of the most spacious materials department, Qin Jin had the thought and took out a piece of Python Bone.

This was a bone located at the tail of the Three-headed Exotic Python, relatively small among Python Bones, the middle spine in an irregular shape, with the rib bones on both sides extending out in a curved blade shape, the whole body was silver-white.

Time had passed, the pressure contained in this bone, collected from the python’s body, had been spent completely, so Qin Jin took it out directly, without worrying it would affect the present staff.

As soon as the Python Bone was taken out, Wang Yao’s gaze focused on it.

Meanwhile.

The materials department staff initiated the testing apparatus.

Waves scanned through, and complex data emerged on the light screen before Wang Yao, with her gaze fixed on it, her face showing ripples of emotion.

“Mr. Qin.”

“This bone must have come from a very powerful python-type Extraordinary Creature, right?!”

Qin Jin nodded.

Wang Yao knew Qin Jin’s background, asked nothing more, her gaze glanced across rows of data, spoke solemnly: “It might be very difficult to integrate it into your new Mecha.”

“With the current data, using it to make Martial Saint Mecha material would not be excessive.”

“If added to the Mecha, it would likely greatly increase the Spiritual Index demand.”

Qin Jin understood.

This was within his expectations.

Based on the performance of the Three-headed Exotic Python, it deserved such an evaluation.

He pondered for a moment, then spoke: “I’ve visualized this Extraordinary Creature, I’m quite familiar with its Spiritual Power, might this lower the requirement?”

“Visualized?”

Wang Yao pondered briefly: “It will have an impact, but the fusion of Extraordinary Materials in Mecha is also a major challenge, Mr. Qin, I suggest perhaps using this bone as the primary material to craft a close-combat weapon module.”

“The close-combat weapon module doesn’t integrate into the Mecha body, in an assembled state, but since you’ve visualized this Extraordinary Creature, when operating the Mecha, it can still move at your command.”

“This is a somewhat clever tactic.”

Qin Jin mused.

He did not give a direct reply, instead, his Spiritual Power surged, and another giant object was taken out and landed in the center of the field.

Upon its appearance, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped.

It appeared to be a dazzling Black Crystal Stone, exceptionally splendid.

This was one of the eyes of the Three-headed Exotic Python!

…

The starship landed, its cabin door opened.

After the Mining Star’s change, starships coming here no longer needed to keep their defense stance activated all the time.

A figure came out first.

She had a graceful figure, was dressed casually, carried a sword on her back, was precisely Zhong Yi.

As she walked from the gangway to the ground, behind her, silhouettes surged out one after another, at a glance, numbering nearly a hundred people.

Zhong Yi looked back, her brows slightly furrowed, spoke: “There’s no need for so many people, doesn’t the Academy have other targets on this star? And those with decent talents but unable to match special recruitment slots, they can send invitations to have them apply to our Martial Abyss at the major examinations.”

“Just leave a few people to accompany me.”

“If this happens, would Qin Jin feel we aren’t paying attention?”

As Zhong Yi’s words dropped, a female voice beside her spoke.

“Is attention determined by the number of people?”

Zhong Yi raised her brows: “Sending so many people, others might think we’re there to exert pressure.”

“If you want to show concern, why don’t you try to get the principal to personally come over here?”

The surroundings quieted down.

Zhong Yi’s expression was solemn: “I’ve had brief contact with Qin Jin, he seems to favor those pragmatic types.”

“Our Martial Abyss is currently leading, there’s no need for the glitzy stuff, just show sincerity as best as possible.”

She was just about to continue speaking when she had a sense and looked to another side.

At the starship docking area, on the other side, another starship was landing, its noise deafening.

On the side of that starship was a deliberately carved symbol, an ancient wooden door that opened to a deep place, with many obscure patterns carved on the panel above.

This is the emblem of a top academy in the Corridor Star System.

[Lingshu Academy]

“Let’s go, our competitors are here.”

“Wondering if anyone else has arrived before us.”

After voicing these two sentences, Zhong Yi took the lead, operating her communication wristwatch.

…

Star Ring Heavy Industries temporary factory.

In the materials area, the chill from the Exotic Python Eye made the surrounding staff instinctively tighten their clothes.

Qin Jin pondered for a moment, slowly said: “Python Bone can be crafted into a close-combat weapon module, also try to incorporate this eye into my new Mecha.”

At this moment.

Qin Jin took on the attitude of the client.

Just then.

His communication wristwatch slightly trembled, a message came through.
