Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 836 Mechanical Longsword

Bai Yang walked out of Haklian's private studio and down a spiral staircase to the middle of the tower.

On the way, a blue-clad intelligent butler guided him.

It's clear that Haklian used to have quite a few apprentices.

There are many empty guest rooms on both sides of the staircase, and the smart butler said that Bai Yang can choose any of them.

No matter how valuable military merit is, over countless eras of accumulation, there will always be soldiers who can amass such merit.

However, the entire tower now seems quite desolate.

It seems there's no one else besides him.

Bai Yang casually picked a room with a window and moved in, then asked the smart butler how to use the black cube.

After it left, Bai Yang sat on the sofa in the living room, took out the light brain containing the Star Guardian clone, and emitted a red laser to connect to the black cube.

After sensing it for a moment, Xing Shou made a judgment: "It's a very ordinary device, not as good as the terminal in the Silver Token Room."

Bai Yang laughed:

"Of course, one of them is a distinguished guest from the Kingdom of Wu."

"Can the conditions be the same for a soldier who is merely a soldier in a military camp in the State of Jin?"

Xing Shou quickly read and organized the data inside the black cube, and then sent it to Bai Yang.

Her most important task this time was to compare the differences in the heritage of the two countries.

To prevent Bai Yang from unconsciously using Duan Donghe's knowledge and giving himself away.

Both originated from the continent of origin, and the vast majority of their overlapping parts are the same.

In some places, the descriptions differ, and it is much more difficult to remember these differences than to memorize both at the same time.

If it weren't for the super memory provided by the panel, this would have been quite difficult.

Even without the content beyond the True God level, Duan Donghe's inheritance does indeed seem to be more advanced.

At least in terms of the mechanical refining method at the Law Venerable stage, Duan Dongliu's information is not as detailed as Haklian's.

"Their approaches are also quite different."

"The Duan Donghe lineage is passed down through a single lineage, and the collected mechanical flow data also tends to favor single-unit weapons like the Wu Shi Yu Yi and Wu Qi Shen."

"The Eastern Army's mechanized legions are clearly more inclined towards large-scale machinery manufacturing, but fortunately, they share many common basic components."

In three days, Bai Yang not only read through all the information, but also categorized it so that there would be no confusion between them.

In order not to be too shocking and frighten Hakuren.

He also took out the Black Cloud Wings to study, spending several days on it, and thus gained many new insights.

At this point, the principles and manufacturing methods of all mechanical items at the Law Venerable level were no longer mysterious to him.

Even in the vast ocean of space, he has a considerable success rate.

In this world, the success rate would increase significantly if some additional equipment were available.

More than twenty days later, in the studio on the top floor of the tower.

Haklian looked at Bai Yang with surprise and doubt as he answered fluently.

Across from him, his smart assistant had already asked him over five hundred questions, yet there was no sign that it stumped him at all.

Hakel's precious time was not wasted in this preliminary assessment.

He usually delegates these tasks to tireless intelligent beings.

However, the number of questions, exceeding five hundred, far surpasses previous standards.

In Haklian's heart, the dissatisfaction he felt when he heard Bai Yang claim that he had completely mastered the knowledge had long since vanished, replaced by pure joy.

"More than twenty days, that's too fast."

"The thinking speed of the Lord of Laws is such that answering the questions I left behind cannot be achieved by rote memorization."

"This Shan Hai, he's truly a beginner in the mechanical style. He's either a genius or has an exceptionally strong foundation."

If it were in the Cosmic Sea, Hakuren would most likely consider whether other forces had sent people over to secretly covet the Eastern Army's mechanical inheritance.

But this is the world of Jin!

The army controls everything; in reality, there are no external enemies at all.

He could only sigh inwardly that he had encountered a truly talented person.

Haklian looked up at Bai Yang, who remained composed throughout, and interrupted them with a sigh.

"You're good. Sergeant Shan Haijun, you've passed."

Bai Yang smiled slightly and looked at the other person seriously, saying:

"Thank you, Mr. Hacklen."

Haklian, with a serious expression and no sign of displeasure, said:

"You're welcome. These materials will be given to you by each mechanical sergeant after you exchange them for guidance time."

Bai Yang knew that although that was true, those mechanical soldiers with many apprentices under their command would often face more "tests," and some even had to stand out from several others in a competition.

As for using apprentices as "free assistants" under the guise of practice, that's even more common.

Snapped!

Hacklen suddenly snapped his fingers, and their workshop vanished.

Bai Yang discovered that the space had changed, and he was moved to the front of a machine that was hundreds of kilometers high.

This spatial transformation is so wondrous that it seems impossible for a true god to accomplish it.

Hacklian pointed at the giant machine and said to him:

"The entire mechanical legion camp is connected by large mechanical equipment, possessing incredible power."

"You can use it to directly apply for various manufacturing equipment and materials."

After saying that, he pointed to a metal door at the bottom of the machine and said:

"There are some outdated and obsolete old equipment and scraps in this door; that should be enough to complete the initial learning."

"Go get it yourself, there's only so much. Once you've used it all up, you'll have to buy more with your military merits."

Bai Yang already knew the process from the previous information. Haklian only loosened his grip slightly, which saved him a lot of military merits.

Without hesitation, he walked directly into the door, and suddenly the world before him turned into a vast, empty white expanse.

Bai Yang had just a thought when a long wooden table suddenly appeared out of thin air, covered with all sorts of things.

"It may seem like a virtual world, but it's actually real."

As the ethereal divine power swept over him, he immediately knew just how much "waste" Hakuren had left him, and he was overjoyed.

The quality of these materials is certainly not comparable to that of all-metal materials, and even compared to the original star metal, they are far inferior.

However, its strength lies in the fact that it is not made of metal, but of various minerals, plants and other types.

Wherever Baiyang's divine power went, a large amount of materials were instantly swept up from thin air.

At the same time, his mind connected with some kind of device in the room.

In the void, a large number of robotic arms stretched out out of thin air and began processing the materials.

In an instant, sparks flew everywhere.

These materials released their own properties and pressure, and were forcibly mixed together.

Before him, a long sword was almost instantly taking shape.

Six hours later, a long sword with a clean blade floated quietly in front of him.

"It possesses the power of a high-level treasure, but it is not actually a treasure; rather, it is a true mechanical item."

"It's too easy. With the conditions here, it's incredibly simple to process and inscribe secret patterns."

"The small mechanical repair shop in the silver-coated chamber simply doesn't have that capability."

"A little repair is fine, but don't even think about completely drawing the secret runes."

Whether it's a true treasure or a mechanical artifact, aside from the materials, the decisive factor is ultimately the runes!
