In the morning.
Grayish-White Furnace, Master Tieyin's office.
On the desk, Blue Kitty stretched. Squeak, squeak, squeak … Claw marks appeared on the grayish-white stone surface.
Blue Kitty: o ((⊙ _ ⊙)) o
It glanced at Copper Bolt, who was lying on the chair, and moved a box over to cover the claw marks. It then licked its claws as if nothing had happened.
Bang!
The office door opened, and Ou Ruoge stumbled in. He fell on the chair and groaned in pain.
Smoke rose from the right shoulder of the White Dwarf Mechanic, and a burn mark could be vaguely seen.
"It hurts too much. I feel like I'm going to faint …" Ou Ruoge said as he really fainted from the pain.
Blue Kitty's gem-like eyes flashed. Is it really that painful?
Today, it was the first step for the four new Mechanics to become official Mechanics — imprinting [Throne Brand].
Early in the morning, they came to the grayish-white furnace, and Master Tieyin helped the four students to [Throne Brand].
Then, after Tong Shuan and Ou Ruoge were branded with the [Mark of the Throne], they became dead.
A moment later …
Footsteps could be heard, and the door was slammed open. There was a creaking sound on the door. It seemed like it would not be long before the door was destroyed.
Dana screamed and rushed in. As soon as she entered, she fell to the ground. Her left shoulder was red and swollen.
"It hurts too much. Why did I become a Mechanic? I don't want to be a Mechanic anymore …" The female White Dwarf started crying.
Meow … It looks really painful … Does that mean Master will be in pain too?
Blue Kitty tilted its head and thought for a while. Then, it jumped off the table and dashed into the depths of the grayish-white furnace.
…
Grayish-White Furnace, Master Tieyin's personal laboratory.
Kacha!
Master Tie Yin placed a piece of [Throne Brand] on a machine that looked like a spray gun. The machine started running, and the spray gun flickered with electricity.
"Teacher. This thing looks really painful when it hits me … "
Hayashi River looked at the spray gun, and his mouth twitched. Anyone would be terrified when they were pointed at by a seven-meter-long spray gun.
Especially after seeing the scene of his three seniors wailing in pain, he was even more terrified.
"It's already painful to be branded with the [Throne Brand]. This is equivalent to having a Heart Elemental Power Chip implanted in your body. I was in much more pain than they were," Master Tie Yin said.
Beep, beep, beep … A countdown timer appeared on the spray gun, indicating that it would be ready in 30 minutes.
"There's half an hour. I'll show you that thing first …"
Master Tie Yin opened the safe, took out a box, and opened it with a grayish-white stone key.
Hayashi River had a look of anticipation on his face. He had taken that ash-gray stone key from the parrot, and had heard that it was the key to a certain treasure chest in the ash-gray furnace.
When the box was opened, it was divided into two layers. On the first layer was a piece of paper. Master Tie Yin waved his hand and called Hayashi River over to take a look.
"What kind of mechanical arm is this …"
Looking at the structure of the mechanical arm on the blueprint, Hayashi River was shocked, and a thought flashed in his mind.
If I were to equip this mechanical arm, wouldn't I be invincible?
Under normal circumstances, a newly obtained mechanical arm only had one function. It was equivalent to a mechanical tool, and it was used to assist the Mechanic in manufacturing, repairing, and other work to increase efficiency.
After that, every time a Mechanic increased by a Star Rank, the Mechanic Star Rank Badge could upgrade the mechanical arm and obtain an additional form.
Each form could be implanted with a mechanical device, and it would obtain a corresponding function, such as storage, disguise, medical, detection, and so on …
Of course, these mechanical devices could only include one type of Heart Elemental Equipment.
Moreover, at the Mechanic level, this type of Heart Elemental Equipment could not exceed one star rank.
To upgrade the Heart Elemental Equipment of the mechanical arm, one had to become a Master Mechanic, and only then could it be upgraded with the Master Star Rank Badge.
The ash-gray mechanical arm on the blueprint actually had an additional Heart Elemental Equipment.
"This is the Scale-Splitting Arm! The Scale-Splitting Furnace was once the greatest invention. The additional Heart Elemental Equipment on the Scale-Splitting Arm does not need the Mechanical Throne Badge, and it can be modified and upgraded by itself, "Master Tie Yin said in a deep voice.
The [Scale-Splitting Arm] was a mechanical arm invented by the nine-star Mechanic Master [Throne Hand] in his later years. It could be said to be an epoch-making invention.
From the first stage of this mechanical arm, it had an additional Heart Elemental Equipment. In other words, it could have two Heart Elemental Equipment.
In the past, the continent's madman, Cromwell, wanted to join the ash-gray furnace because he wanted to obtain the blueprint for the [Scale-Splitting Arm].
Speaking of how the ash-gray furnace had chased Cromwell away, Master Tie Yin shook his head. The main reason was that Cromwell was too arrogant. He had slapped the faces of so many White Dwarf Mechanics, and he still wanted the secret treasure of the ash-gray furnace. He must be dreaming.
Hayashi River gulped. If Cromwell had obtained the [Scale-Splitting Arm], wouldn't he have had four Armageddon Heavy Cannons during the battle of the Moonlight Sea?
"Teacher, are you going to pass the blueprint for the [Scale-Splitting Arm] to me?" Hayashi River asked softly.
Master Tie Yin nodded and said, "The White Dwarf Kingdom has a rule that only White Dwarves and Goblins can inherit the land of the furnace. You are a human, and since you can't inherit the ash-gray furnace, I can only pass this item to you. "
As he spoke, he looked at Hayashi River and said, "This is not the blueprint for the [Scale-Splitting Arm], but a finished mechanical arm. With the cost of this item, even if you used up the financial resources of an entire kingdom, you might not be able to make a second finished product. "
Gulp …
Gulp …
Two sounds of gulping could be heard from outside the laboratory. One was loud, while the other was soft.
Hayashi River frowned and looked at the corner. The little blue cat quietly slipped over and hid outside the window to look.
However, Hayashi River's attention was quickly occupied by the word "finished product".
"This mechanical arm is going to be inherited by me?"
Hayashi River was extremely pleased. This was something that even the madman of the continent wanted, and now it was going to become his mechanical arm.
Looking at his student's expression, Master Tie Yin shook his head and smiled. "Don't be too happy yet. Although you're going to inherit it, it's hard to say if you'll be compatible. Moreover, the [Scale-Splitting Arm] is good. It's an additional Heart Elemental Equipment, but it has its drawbacks … "
Master Tie Yin wanted to say something else, but with a ding, the gun-shaped ejector indicated that it was completed.
"Let's brand the [Throne Brand] first …"
After walking to the gun-shaped ejector, Master Tie Yin gestured for Hayashi River to stand in front.
Hayashi River was helpless. He stood in front of the muzzle, feeling anxious. He had so many magical abilities, so branding the [Throne Brand] shouldn't hurt that much, right?
At this moment, outside the laboratory window, the Blue Kitty squinted its eyes, gloating. It wanted to see its master suffer the same fate as Sister Dana.
Bang!
The gun-shaped ejector fired, and the [Throne Brand] glowed. It was as if some kind of energy was being extracted. Streaks of electricity flashed and shot into Hayashi River's right shoulder.
Buzz …
On his right shoulder, electricity danced, and the pattern of a mechanical throne was engraved.
Hayashi River's body trembled, but it wasn't very painful. It was just a numbness like an electric shock, but it was bearable.
However, his hair was standing up one by one, almost becoming an afro.
Seeing this, the Blue Kitty's eyes lit up. It felt that its master was going to suffer, and he might faint soon. Then …
Moments later, the gun-shaped ejector stopped firing. Hayashi River felt a burning pain in his right shoulder. Then, the pendulum pattern on his chest appeared, and a cool aura surrounded it. Soon, the pain disappeared.
"Done."
Master Tie Yin said, "Go and rest."
Stroking his afro, Hayashi River touched his shoulder. He wanted to act like he was in pain, but when he thought of the finished [Scale-Splitting Arm], he honestly said that he didn't need to rest, and he didn't feel much pain.
"Hmm …"
Master Tie Yin was shocked. After being branded with the [Throne Brand], one had to rest for at least half a day, and some even had to rest for months. How could he be fine?
"Hayashi River, don't force yourself. This thing will be passed to you sooner or later." Master Tie Yin signaled him not to force himself.
"Master. I'm really fine. It just hurts a little. "Hayashi River touched the brand on his right shoulder. Actually, it didn't hurt at all.
As he said this, he glanced at the little blue cat outside the window. The latter's body shrank, and it felt that something was wrong, so it quickly slipped away.
Hayashi River cursed in his heart. 'You want to see me make a fool of myself? I'll settle the score with this little thing when I get back …'
"Alright."
Master Tie Yin smiled and shook his head. He walked to the box and opened the second layer. There was a mechanical arm with grayish-white patterns.
