"It's still an incomplete attribute."
Wang Teng sighed. He had a feeling that it would not be easy to obtain the complete [Heart of Evolution] attribute.
This [Heart of Evolution] was the core of all the machines, and they would not expose it easily.
It would not be easily damaged, and the attribute bubbles that would drop would be very limited. They might not even be complete, and they would all be incomplete attributes like this.
Furthermore, if the other party woke up, he might not be able to pick up the attribute bubbles.
Could it be a huge improvement?
The reason why he succeeded just now was because of the combination of various factors, and it was very coincidental.
After all, those with authority would die a horrible death.
The Star Mechanic King probably did not expect that his mistake would give Wang Teng a chance to peek at the [Heart of Evolution].
"It's too difficult."
Wang Teng could not help but shake his head. He did not have much hope in his heart.
"Looks like I might have to add blank attributes in the future."
However, can the blank attribute be used to complete the incomplete attributes?
It does not seem possible.
What a headache!
He turned around and left helplessly. He did not stay there for long because that machine was not a dark apparition.
Yuan Gungun immediately followed. Although it was very curious about what Wang Teng had seen, it was not good for it to ask since Wang Teng did not want to say.
The two of them came to the fourth level and saw the second machine.
This was a normal humanoid machine. It was commanding some mechanical puppets to repair something.
Wang Teng hid in the distance and secretly observed. It was also not a dark apparition in disguise, and he could not pick up any attribute bubbles. He had no choice but to leave.
Next, he checked the levels one by one and saw many existences of the Automaton Race.
These machines were really of all shapes and sizes. Their external appearances were all different, and Wang Teng learned a lot.
Fortunately, these machines more or less allowed him to pick up some attribute bubbles from the [Heart of Evolution]. It was not a complete loss.
[Heart of Evolution] (Unknown, Incomplete): 2,300/50000 (Beginner)
Apart from that, the stats of [Machinery Runes] had also increased by quite a bit.
[Mechanical Runes]: 4,800/5,000 (Proficient)
"I'm not far from the breakthrough." Wang Teng's eyes flashed with joy.
After Mastery, he would reach Lesser Mastery. Right now, he was just short of 200 Attribute Points. He might be able to break through soon. After all, this Void Fortress still had many levels.
"Wang Teng, could you have guessed wrong? Maybe that dark apparition isn't pretending to be a member of the Machinery Race. "
Yuan Gungun said, "Pretending to be a Mech is a thankless task. Pretending to be or controlling any other race is much better than pretending to be a Mech."
Wang Teng shook his head and said, "You can't get close to the [Mechanical Demonic Eye] by pretending to be another race."
"But we haven't found any traces of the dark apparition even after searching for so long …" Yuan Gungun said hesitantly.
"No rush, take your time," Wang Teng said with a calm smile.
He was really not in a hurry at all.
To be able to see so many Automatons and even pick up their attribute bubbles, was there anything better than this?
"…" Yuan Gungun was a little helpless.
He did not understand why Wang Teng could be so calm.
If he could not find that dark apparition, wouldn't he be embarrassed in front of the Star Mechanic King? How would he explain it to him?
"Let's go to the next place."
Wang Teng sat in the elevator and went up to the next level. He asked, "Which level is this?"
"Level 18," Yuan Gungun said.
Wang Teng nodded. He found the Automaton on this level and hid in the dark to observe.
He saw a huge mechanical body that seemed to be in the middle of production. From an indescribable position, mechanical balls were spat out.
That scene was really a little like pooping.
"What is it doing?" Wang Teng asked after a moment of silence.
"It's producing mechanical puppets," Yuan Gungun said without thinking much.
"Oh …" Wang Teng dragged his voice, nodded, and said righteously, "It's just as I thought."
Yuan Gungun did not think much at first, but seeing that he was trying to cover his ears, he could not help but look at him suspiciously. "I suspect that you're thinking about something weird."
"Hehe, you're thinking too much." Wang Teng smiled awkwardly. [Eyes of Truth] suddenly saw something and could not help but let out a soft exclamation.
He saw that there was actually an attribute bubble in the Automaton's body. However, this time, it was not at the core but at another part.
He immediately swept out his psychic power and quietly picked it up.
[Mechanical Puppet * 500]
[Mechanical Puppet * 800]
[Mechanical Puppet * 1200]
…
"Mechanical Puppet!" Wang Teng was stunned for a moment. He did not expect it to be this attribute bubble.
Before he could think much, a corresponding realization appeared in his mind.
He saw a mechanical ball condense, and then the corresponding structure appeared one by one. It was dismantled, and the manufacturing process was repeated.
[Mechanical Puppet] (Growth-type): 5300/10000 (Stage 1);
"Hey, this Mechanical Puppet's attribute is actually a Growth-type, and it's divided into stages." Wang Teng looked at the attribute value that appeared on the attribute panel in surprise.
The attribute value that he had just obtained was only a Stage 1 [Mechanical Puppet]. It was not very high and was only at the lowest level.
However, Wang Teng was still quite happy.
First of all, it was naturally because the attribute value was complete and not incomplete.
This way, he could directly create Mechanical Puppets.
After seeing the Mechanical Puppets of the Automaton Tribe, he had to admit that this thing was very useful.
Mechanical Puppets were somewhat different from ordinary robots. They were directly controlled by the Automaton Tribe, and they had decent combat power. They could absorb the Force to fight.
Moreover, they could be very large in number. When gathered together, they could even form an even more powerful Mechanical Puppet.
These were the relevant information that Wang Teng obtained after obtaining the attribute bubble of the [Mechanical Puppet].
"Yuan Gungun, can you create Mechanical Puppets now?" Wang Teng asked telepathically.
"Mechanical Puppets?" Yuan Gungun did not know why he suddenly asked about this. He said, "This can only be learned by making contributions to the Automaton Tribe."
Wang Teng nodded. It seemed that the Automaton Tribe was quite protective of their own knowledge.
"Don't tell me that you're tempted because you saw the Automaton Tribe producing Mechanical Puppets?" Yuan Gungun glanced at him and said.
"I'm a little tempted, but I have a way to get the method of making Mechanical Puppets." Wang Teng smiled.
"What?" Yuan Gungun thought that he had misheard and asked, "You're not joking, right?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Wang Teng smiled faintly.
"The Automaton Tribe has hidden the method of making Mechanical Puppets so well that outsiders have no way of knowing. How did you get it?" Yuan Gungun was very curious.
"You don't need to know that. You only need to know that I have a way to make Mechanical Puppets when the time comes," Wang Teng said.
"..." Yuan Gungun took a deep breath and suppressed his curiosity. "If the Automaton Tribe finds out that you've learned the method of making Mechanical Puppets, will they …"
"You're overthinking things. Did I say that it's a Mechanical Puppet? Can't I say that it's an Origin Puppet? Can't I say that it's a Lightning Puppet? "Wang Teng said," Different types of Mechanical Puppets can be made from different energies. That's not up to me. "
"???" Yuan Gungun felt that he was too naive. As expected, shameless people were the most invincible.
But Wang Teng's words were indeed correct.
No one would know that it was a Mechanical Puppet as long as he didn't say it was one.
Wang Teng hadn't gone to the Automaton Tribe to steal the technique, so they couldn't do anything to him.
One had to know that Wang Teng's identity wasn't simple. Even the Automaton Tribe couldn't do anything to him.
"Wang Teng, we have a good relationship, right?" Yuan Gungun rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "You see, I wasn't tempted by the Automaton Tribe. I'm firmly on your side."
"So?" Wang Teng pretended not to know and asked.
"So, the method of making Mechanical Puppets, hehe, you know." Yuan Gungun rubbed his hands and laughed.
"It depends on your performance." Wang Teng's lips curled up and said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go."
He had just stayed for a while and picked up a lot of attribute bubbles. Seeing that he couldn't make the [Mechanical Puppet] break through to the first level, he could only leave.
[Mechanical Puppet] (Growth-type): 8500/10000 (First Level)
Now, its attribute value had reached 8500 points. It only needed 1500 points to break through.
Unfortunately, the Automaton Tribe didn't continue to make second-order Mechanical Puppets, so Wang Teng knew that it was impossible for him to pick up the attribute bubbles of the second-order [Mechanical Puppet].
He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
The power of a first-order Mechanical Puppet wouldn't be very strong.
Wang Teng and Yuan Gungun continued to search. There were no special situations on the next few floors, but Wang Teng picked up a lot of attributes of the [Mechanical Runes].
[Mechanical Runes]: 2300/10000 (Small Mastery)
[Mechanical Runes] had finally reached the Small Mastery level from the Proficient level. Wang Teng's mastery of these Runes had greatly improved. It was equivalent to decades of experience for others.
However, Wang Teng doubted that the Automaton Tribe would need so much time to learn.
Their tribe was very special. All knowledge could be learned through artificial intelligence. It was simply cheating.
When Wang Teng and Yuan Gungun searched the entire Lanji Void Fortress, they still didn't find any problems.
Wang Teng's expression became completely serious.
Yuan Gungun was also silent. It didn't know what to say.
Since Wang Teng was so confident, it naturally believed in him. However, it still couldn't find any traces of the dark apparition. It didn't know what the problem was.
"Yuan Gungun, contact the Star Mechanic King immediately and ask him if any Automaton Tribe members have left the Lanji Void Fortress recently," Wang Teng said seriously.
"Okay."
Yuan Gungun didn't say much and immediately contacted the Star Mechanic King.
After a while, it looked at Wang Teng and said seriously, "You guessed right. There is indeed a Automaton Tribe member heading toward the Ironworks Fortress defense line."
"Ironworks Fortress defense line?" Wang Teng was unfamiliar with this and waited for an explanation.
"The Ironworks Fortress defense line is the most important defense line between the Automaton Tribe and the Tianlan Tribe. It was originally the channel between the Tianlan Tribe and the Automaton Tribe."
The space in front of him fluctuated, and the Star Mechanic King walked out.
"You should know that the Automaton Tribe rarely interacts with the outside world, and people from other races rarely come to the Automaton Tribe. However, in order to not be separated from the universe, we can only establish a few specific channels to connect with other tribes."
"Therefore, this Ironworks Fortress defense line is very important," Wang Teng said to the Star Mechanic King.
"Yes." The Star Mechanic King nodded. "Are you sure there's a problem with the Automaton Tribe member heading toward the Ironworks Fortress defense line?"
"If the information senior gave me is accurate, then it can only be him," Wang Teng said.
Seeing that he was so sure, the Star Mechanic King's eyes flashed slightly. "In that case, please go to the Ironworks Fortress defense line."
"Okay." Wang Teng nodded. "I'll go now. Senior, do you have anything to tell me?"
"Act according to the situation." The Star Mechanic King waved his hand, and a blue stream of light landed in front of Wang Teng. "This is my token. When you arrive at the Ironworks Fortress defense line, if you need anything, you can show it directly. The Automaton Tribe there will assist you."
Wang Teng's eyes flashed slightly, and he was a little surprised. He reached out and took the token in front of him.
This token was very different from the tokens he had seen in the past. It was full of mechanical feeling, and there were blue patterns on the surface and back of the token. It looked very strange.
"It looks like a mechanical component."
Wang Teng muttered in his heart for no reason. Then, he cupped his fists at the Star Mechanic King and left.
"Your spaceship has been repaired and can be used. Let Yuan Gungun take you there."
After the Star Mechanic King said this, he disappeared from where he stood.
"The Fire River spaceship has been repaired? So fast? "Wang Teng looked at Yuan Gungun in surprise and asked.
"Since the Star Mechanic King said so, it should be true." Yuan Gungun was also a little surprised, but he still nodded.
"Let's go and take a look." Wang Teng was a little impatient.
The spaceship parking area was located on the second level. Wang Teng and Yuan Gungun took the elevator again and directly arrived at the second level.
At a glance, there were spaceships everywhere.
When Wang Teng searched before, he directly skimmed through the second level because there were no Automatons here. There were only some mechanical puppets repairing the spaceship.
Under Yuan Gungun's guidance, Wang Teng quickly found the Fire River spaceship.
Wang Teng's eyes lit up. He was a little happy.
The overall appearance of the Fire River spaceship did not change much. It was still mainly dark red, but there were some blue patterns on the origin power engine.
This blue color was not out of place. Instead, it blended perfectly with the overall color of the spaceship, forming a kind of decoration.
Of course, this was only the appearance.
After Wang Teng and Yuan Gungun entered the spaceship, they found that the interior had changed greatly.
In the past, the interior of the Fire River spaceship was mostly luxurious. After all, the Fire River Realm Lord back then more or less had the intention of enjoying himself.
Later, after the Torch Dragon Race's modification, it became even more luxurious.
However, after the Automaton Race's modification, the interior had a hazy and dreamy feeling of technology. That sense of luxury was suppressed by a lot and was no longer the main thing.
It had a kind of feeling of being the host.
However, Wang Teng liked it.
"After the Automaton Race's modification, it has indeed blended into the Automaton Race's style," Yuan Gungun said with a smile.
"Let's see how the performance is."
As Wang Teng spoke, he sat down in the pilot's seat and found that his entire body fit perfectly with the pilot's seat, as if he had sunk into it. It was extremely comfortable.
Yuan Gungun could not wait to operate the spaceship. It turned into a stream of light and rushed out of the Lanji Void Fortress.
"This, this, this …"
With this operation, Yuan Gungun immediately felt the difference and was amazed.
"The speed has increased by another 10%."
Why did he say 'again'?
Because after the Torch Dragon Race's modification, the spaceship's performance had increased by a full 30 times. Now, it had increased by another 10%. This was not much easier than the previous upgrade.
Previously, the Fire River spaceship was not considered a pinnacle sector lord spaceship, so it was relatively easy to upgrade.
It could be done as long as higher-grade materials were integrated.
However, now that the Fire River had reached the pinnacle sector lord level, it was very difficult to upgrade it further. This required a breakthrough in technology.
However, the Automaton Race had done it.
That was why Yuan Gungun was so amazed.
"The overall performance has increased by 20%, and the defense has increased by at least 15%." Yuan Gungun took a deep breath and finally said, "I feel that this is the Fire River's limit."
"Limit!" Wang Teng was shocked.
"Yes, this is the limit. I'm afraid the Fire River spaceship can't be upgraded anymore." Yuan Gungun nodded solemnly.
Wang Teng's eyes flashed as he nodded.
He naturally understood what this meant. If the Fire River could not be upgraded anymore, it meant that the spaceship's future had come to an end. There was nothing left to look forward to.
This was a cruel reality.
As Wang Teng's strength increased, the spaceship would eventually not be able to keep up with his pace. Perhaps it would not be long before it was eliminated.
"Don't think too much, just use it first." Wang Teng smiled and did not think too much. He directly ordered, "Head to the Ironforge Fortress' defense line as soon as possible. I want to see what it's up to."
