Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 307 306. I hope you can be this calm when we are offline

She finally stayed.

Of course, it wasn't because the technical department had come up with any impressive technology, but because Seifer had told her to be patient, saying that at least it was more interesting here than sitting back in the dormitory and wasting time.

At the very least, I'll make her something delicious in the evening as some compensation... Feldrich didn't know what was wrong with him, and subconsciously asked if it was that image.

Sefer was a little confused at first, but then nodded helplessly and said it was okay, then she came back and sat down.

But it wasn't for nothing. After an actual inspection, Feldrich expressed distrust in the technology department's ability to "cash in".

She thought for a moment and said, "How about this: using the resources you have now, if you can earn over 100,000 yuan from other students in the next week, I will believe that you are truly capable."

Seifer grumbled to Lin Shenxue quietly, "I think this is a test of business and money-making ability, not a test of invention."

Lin Shenxue nodded, agreeing deeply.

"Don't interrupt me. The requirement is to use something you made. I don't care how you made it, or if you picked up some scrap from somewhere and sold it. As long as you can make this money, I will recognize you."

After saying that, Feldridge pulled at the collar of his somewhat tight uniform and walked out of the warehouse with a haughty attitude, probably planning to go back to school.

A few people were left behind, and Sefer crossed his arms: "That's what the sponsor said."

A girl who calls herself Momo but is actually Ram's sister jumps over and says, "Who the hell is that girl? Why does she look so amazing?"

"That guy is one of the richest men in this desert."

"Oh."

Xiaotao immediately sat down, adjusted her attitude, and pondered over what to do.

Then Seifer continued to introduce himself, saying that he had brought two helpers with him. As mentioned earlier, Weiwei was very good at repairing and building weapons and equipment. She had been looking at the blueprints for a long time.

After eliminating the useless ones, Weiwei did find two useful ones. However, they were weapons designed for independent mercenaries, and their power was a bit too strong, too self-indulgent.

Lin Shenxue couldn't speak, which made the two sisters feel quite sorry for her, but she didn't mind... She was used to it. As long as no one knew that she was actually from another world, it was fine.

"Well, I've found two helpers for you. I hope you can think carefully about how to actually carry out the mission issued by the sponsor."

Glancing at the person half asleep on the other side, Seifer was silent for a few seconds. "I came too early today. Anyway, I have other work to deal with. Can I come back tomorrow to check on your progress?"

"Oh? Oh! Farewell, teacher~"

So they came in a hustle and bustle and left alone. When Seifer stood at the door of the warehouse, he curiously glanced at the other warehouses lined up next to it - good, there were no other interest groups at all.

Are you the only one with a special relationship that can occupy an entire warehouse?

Shaking his head, Cypher made some preparations, confirmed where his contact was, and headed straight for the library.

How does the saying go? You are fake online after all. If you really want to understand a person, you have to be real offline - so now, you have to be real with your contact!

Sefer hadn't seen much of Xinxiang Institute of Technology's other facilities, but honestly, the library was quite well-built. The grand gatehouse, the elegantly arranged wooden bookshelves past the lending desk, the interior where you had to change your shoes before entering...

Many students were already immersed in the ocean of knowledge, while others were curious about why someone without a school uniform would come here. Ignoring their gazes, Seifer followed the persistent communication signal and walked directly to the depths of the library. Sure enough, behind a brightly lit bookshelf decorated with rare plants, he saw Laika.

She was also wearing a school uniform. She was a little confused when she heard the sound of Cypher coming over. Then the confusion turned into a slight shock. She didn't even notice that the book in her hand had fallen to the ground.

The artificial morning light filtered through the windows, filling the library with abundant light. Leica's two low ponytails, tied behind her head, shone a beautiful golden color in the light.

Those deep orange-red eyes looked at Seifer blankly, her expression a little dazed. After a moment, she asked quietly, "...Red Crossbow Arrow?"

"It's me. So, now you have a good understanding of me, right?"

Leica was silent for a moment, then suddenly realized, "So you really did lie to me during the communication, including the matter of adjusting the sound card—"

"Ah, about this, wait a moment."

Cypher calmly looked back at the people near the library, then used a threat scan to look for possible cameras, and discovered that the place Leica was looking for was actually a blind spot for the camera.

What if we get attacked here, Laika?
Although he seemed to be very talkative during the communication, when he came in front of her, Laika didn't know how to communicate. She just watched "Red Crossbow" slowly groping behind his head.

Then with a "whoosh", the entire face skin was torn off!

At that moment, Leica felt her heart and lungs suddenly stop, and she had the illusion of watching a horror movie. To confirm whether she was dreaming, she even pinched her palm hard.

It hurts, so I'm not dreaming. Then... what exactly is this 'humanoid' that appears before my eyes, this metal head with a faint red glow in its eyes, that clearly doesn't resemble a human?!
Cypher said calmly, "I am the Red Bolt."

"...But, I remember that you were just a new mercenary...right?"

The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Cypher put the head sculpture back on, made his facial expression a little more lively, and then sat casually on a lower bookshelf.

"Haven't I always emphasized that I actually have a lot of room for trial and error? In various aspects, I have plenty of opportunities for trial and error. This is the proof."

Leica was silent for a while, turned her back and seemed to be trying to sort out the current situation... Fortunately, her skilled career as a liaison gave her a very good heart.

After a moment, she turned around and said, "...Okay, I understand. So the independent mercenary I'm in charge of is actually a machine..."

"Strictly speaking, it can't be considered a complete machine. It's just one of my backup bodies. It's a bit troublesome to explain in detail, but since I've been active here lately, let me first talk about your situation."

"My...situation?"

"Yeah, that's right. Haven't you been bullied by your roommates all the time? Although I gave you some simple ways to deal with it before, they were definitely not enough to deliver a fatal blow."

When Cypher said this, Leica's expression was rather subtle. She opened her mouth, trying to explain something, but Cypher said matter-of-factly, "It seems like you've established a pretty good relationship with them."

"Then the next step is the key. You need to start creating rifts between the three of you through misunderstandings, but you can't be the one to initiate the birth of this rift."

When Seifer said this, he meant it sincerely. But did the person who heard it also mean it sincerely?
At least, when someone came to look for Leica, Sefer felt that fine beads of sweat had begun to appear on her fair little face.

Because the beautiful girl who came with big wavy hair and looked very fashionable immediately hugged Leica and looked at Sefer warily.

Especially those silicone ergonomic wonders, looking like golden retrievers guarding their food.
