Upgrading the firepower of Lily's combat form — Hao Ren had never thought about it before. But now that Lily had suggested it, he realized that it was quite useful, at least on Lily.
Because her personal shortcomings were a little obvious.
Hao Ren had quite a lot of family members, but not all of them needed to upgrade their firepower. Vivian and Y 'zaks were both very strong, and they were the typical dual cultivators of magic and martial arts. Moreover, they mainly relied on their spellcasting and various talents in combat. They had no obvious shortcomings. The little demon Y' lisabet was a talented player like her father, and what she needed the most right now was to learn and grow, not to upgrade. Nangong Sanba's main function was to look handsome, and his side job was DPS. So, he needed to upgrade his selfie skills and posing experience, and he did not need Hao Ren's help. Nangong Wuyue … Nangong Wuyue's DPS was always zero, so there was no point in upgrading her. The only one who could be considered as half an operative was Rollie, but the cat maiden's main weakness was intelligence … So, there was no need to consider her for now.
Hao Ren pondered for a while and felt that upgrading Lily's strength was the easiest and the fastest. He had come up with a plan on the spot.
Looking at the husky maiden's hesitant eyes, Hao Ren smiled. "Alright, leave it to me. Since I have nothing to do at home, I'll help you figure out how to upgrade your equipment."
"What are you two whispering about here?" Vivian's voice suddenly came from the side. She had seen Hao Ren and Lily sneaking to the side with bowls and chopsticks while she was cleaning the dishes. She could not help but come up to them. "Hey, Doggie, you look so silly when you laugh."
"I asked Mr. Landlord to upgrade my equipment!" Lily wagged her tail happily, and her ears twitched. "Mr. Landlord agreed!"
"Upgrade your equipment?" Vivian blinked. "Oh, right. Your claws should be upgraded, or else they would be a waste of their original name …"
Lily immediately puffed up her cheeks. "Not that!"
"We are studying how to improve her combat strength after she fully shapeshifted," Hao Ren explained with a smile. "After shapeshifting, her combat strength has improved by leaps and bounds, but it has also magnified her shortcomings. She lacks long-range attacks, battle endurance is worrying, and she can't perform many delicate movements in human form. Oh, and she can't communicate. I'm going to fix that while I'm at it."
By then, the others had come over curiously. Nangong Sanba could not help but let out a sigh. "Heh, that sounds like a big upgrade. Why do you suddenly want to solve this?"
"She brought it up," Hao Ren pointed to Lily. "And it just so happens that these shortcomings are getting more and more obvious in the recent battles. Why don't we solve them in the next few days?"
Obviously, the news of Lily's equipment upgrade had aroused everyone's interest. Probably because they were too bored staying at home, when they heard that something interesting was going on, they immediately crowded over and began to offer their opinions. They all fought side by side on the battlefield, and everyone knew each other's combat style and strengths and weaknesses like the back of their hands. They were also very clear that Lily needed to be improved after shapeshifting. So, after a noisy discussion, they actually summed up a lot of details that Hao Ren had not noticed before.
But in terms of specific implementation, they could not help much because Hao Ren intended to use his pile of high-tech equipment to redesign a set of equipment for Lily, and the design concept and technical details of this set of equipment were completely out of the reach of others.
So when Hao Ren and the MDT began to discuss the blueprint, everyone began to disperse. The living room suddenly became quiet. Only Lily was left beside Hao Ren, who was looking forward to the rare moment of silence.
"You're not going to wait here until the blueprint comes out, are you?" Hao Ren glanced at the husky maiden, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "It's not that fast. It takes two days to order a set of clothes."
Lily thought for a moment and agreed. She ran back into the room to continue watching her TV series.
But after a while, Hao Ren felt someone creeping up on him again. He jerked his head around and said, "Didn't I say to … err, scram?"
It was not the impatient husky, but the silly cat. The cat maiden was startled by Hao Ren's sudden turn and almost jumped on the back of the sofa. "Meow! Big Boss Cat, you scared me! "
"You scared me? Sneaking up on me like that." Hao Ren rolled his eyes at the cat. Then he suddenly remembered that he did not see the cat when they were discussing the blueprint. This was obviously not the cat's personality. So, he was curious. "What were you doing just now? Looking for me for … Eh? What are you doing with a straw? "
The cat maiden grabbed a straw and waved it over her head. At the same time, she asked curiously, "Big Boss Cat, I heard a lot of people talking about sucking on cats. What does it mean? Can you show me? I've brought you the straw! "
Hao Ren was stunned. He slapped himself on the forehead. As I said before, the cat's biggest shortcoming was intelligence …
Regarding Lily's request for "firepower upgrade", Hao Ren's thoughts could be summed up in one sentence:
A heavy self-propelled firepower platform plus a mobile battlefield stronghold.
Lily had been using her werewolf form for a century. Whether it was combat skills or the use of various weapons, she had almost developed, and her fighting style had already taken shape. There was limited room for improvement. However, her beast form was different. She had just mastered the skill more than three years ago. Even if she was a husky, it did not mean that she could immediately use her fangs and claws after being a 'human' for a century. In other words, her beast form was still completely relying on instinct to fight. Even a high-end skill like Doggoblast was just a stiffly spliced onto the foundation of her beast form. She needed to charge up and stay still to aim. She even needed to open her mouth wide when releasing the skill, which affected her vision. All these were signs that she was not proficient in controlling it.
Mastery needed to be practiced slowly. Lily could only solve this problem by herself. But Hao Ren could first design a set of equipment for her that could be used without too much brainpower. It would be a waste not to use her two-storey height and unbelievably strong physique after shapeshifting.
Such a big Sieging Beast, how many small missile launchers would it take to hang on it …
Based on this exciting design concept, coupled with the excellent virtual calculus function of the MDT, and a variety of mature weapon plans in the database, a set of armor named "Heavy Lily MK-I" was quickly designed and produced.
Of course, this kind of test could not be done on Earth. So Hao Ren took Lily directly to a weapon test station on Aerymian. There was plenty of space for her to do whatever she wanted, and she did not have to worry even if she broke something.
Lily was very excited from the moment they left the house. When they arrived at the test site, she could not calm down at all. She jumped around Hao Ren. "Mr. Landlord! Mr. Landlord! Where's my new equipment? Where's my new equipment? Isn't it awesome? Isn't it cool? "
Vivian frowned and asked, "I don't know if you've thought of this. Lily's transformation will destroy her clothes. Even if you solve this problem, she will only be able to use her claws and mouth. Will she be able to wear the clothes you made for her?" Hao Ren nodded and said, "I don't know if you've thought of this. Lily's transformation will destroy her clothes. Even if you solve this problem, she can only use her claws and mouth.
"Of course, these details have already been solved by simulation." Hao Ren smiled and took out something from his Dimensional Pocket. He then threw it to Lily. "Take this, your combat armor."
Lily took it and looked at it. Suddenly, she had a strange look on her face. "… Collar?"
What Hao Ren threw to her was just a silver-white collar.
"Mr. Landlord, you're not kidding me, are you?" Lily looked at Hao Ren suspiciously as if she was looking for a place to bite. "This collar is the heavy equipment you designed for me?"
"This is just an activation device. I can't let you carry around a set of giant armor that you can wear in your beast form." Hao Ren smiled mysteriously. "Put it on, shapeshift, and you'll know what's going on."
Lily looked at Hao Ren suspiciously. However, she was already used to wearing a life-saving collar. Besides, she never had the concept of "no one should put a collar on her because of the dignity of a werewolf". So, in the end, she put the collar on her neck.
"Wow, it's so light. I don't feel anything." Lily moved her head a little. She then took out a spicy stick from her pocket and waved to the others. "Step back. I'm going to shapeshift!"
A moment later, accompanied by a loud and carefree howl, the silver-white "giant wolf" strode out with a gust of wind.
The necklace that had been around her neck previously was still around her neck, but it had grown several dozen times larger during the transformation process, turning into a thick, shiny silver neck guard. The neck guard stuck closely to the contours of her body after the transformation, and blue light surged on its surface. It looked countless times more eye-catching than when it was just a small necklace.
"That's it?" Nangong Sanba asked curiously.
Lily also looked down curiously. But it was impossible for her to see the neck guard on her neck. So, she raised her front paw and scratched around her neck. At the same time, the blue light on the surface of the silver-white neck guard suddenly cracked. Then, the whole device changed rapidly in a series of complex and incredible transformations!
A series of synthesized voices came from the inside of the mechanical structure. "Heavy combat armor activated. Initial activation. Basic self-inspection completed. Energy module – normal.
