"...Type 28?"

It has been proven that people can become repeaters under certain circumstances.

For example, right now, Renyi unconsciously repeated a sentence.

"Yes!" A spark ignited in Klaus's eyes. "Based on Hanscat industrial standards, a personally improved version. It's more flexible and more reliable!"

As he spoke, he twisted a section of the handle.

"Click".

The wrench emitted a mechanical sound from inside. The hexagonal jaws at the top of the wrench opened, rotated, and quickly closed into a flat hammerhead.

"This is the heavy hammer mode. The center of gravity shifts forward, which enhances the blunt impact effect."

Klaus then turned a blue knob at the end of the grip.

"Buzz—"

Another deep motor sound rang out, and the handle of the weapon suddenly extended by half a meter, turning it into a long-handled warhammer.

"To deal with enemies that require maintaining distance."

Renyi watched the changes without saying a word. This thing had completely transcended the category of a "wrench".

Klaus seemed to misunderstand his silence and quickly added:

"Materials are limited, and the telescopic structure isn't very stable. Maximum load capacity... well, that's not important."

He put the weapon back to its original state and began demonstrating again.

Press the red button, and a crescent-shaped serrated blade pops out from the center of the wrench jaws, producing a piercing cutting sound as it spins at high speed.

"The cutting mode, used for armor penetration or... logging?"

Klaus turned off the switch, and the noise stopped abruptly. He then presented the weapon to Ren Yi as if it were a treasure.

Renyi didn't answer, but simply extended one finger to check the item information.

Newton (Multi-Scale Mechanics Version)

【Characteristic 1: Gravity. Falling attack damage is increased by 40%.】

[Characteristic 2: Mechanical overload. Causes five times the damage to ergonomically designed structures.]

[New Feature 3: Lever Point. Allows you to designate any solid surface as a fulcrum to move objects up to ten times the user's maximum strength.]

[Comment: It can now be used to tighten nuts, hammer nails, demolish houses... and maybe even calculate celestial orbits! PS: Please, someone do something about this engineer; it's just a wrench!]

"This is just the beginning!"

Klaus completely ignored that irritating comment and immersed himself in his creative passion.

"Once I find a material with better ductility, I can add even more modules! Then I can upgrade it to Type 52..."

"...How about calling it '3000 That Will Kill You'?" Just casually quipped.

"3000 to kill you?"

Klaus's gray eyes suddenly gleamed even brighter. "This naming method... intuitive, efficient, and incredibly compelling! Differentiating models through numerical iterations while summarizing core functions in the name... I get it!"

Looking at his expression, which seemed to say, "Master, I understand now,"

Renyi felt that things might be starting to take a strange turn.

"......Wait a moment,"

He decisively interrupted the engineer's burst of inspiration, "You do it."

With a thought,

Piles of materials were stacked on the open ground.

Diamond, diamond, Cleopatra's stinger, strong tendon, alloy...

"Stop messing with that wrench and start making some preparations for going to the Naga territory."

Klaus, as if bewitched, touched this and that, responding without looking up:

"...Okay, okay..."

Whether he listened or not, at least we shut him up!

He nodded in satisfaction.

I never imagined that my current laziness would have such consequences.

But that's a story for another time.

......

It was evening.

Only golden light shone through the gaps in the trees on the horizon, and the five-person team had assembled.

I wonder what Klaus made with those materials.

Anyway, it was used up completely.

Randomly and secretly gave Klaus a nickname—

A money-devouring beast.

Aurora thoughtfully used the snake-men's skins to make a simple set of protective gear for everyone, so Ivan no longer had to show off his muscles to the monsters.

These "snake-man skins" are not only aesthetically pleasing but also offer some protection.

Aside from being a bit hard...

Aside from the fact that it might make you feel a little nauseous when you think about its origin, it has no other drawbacks.

Ethan insisted that he might have developed a phobia of snakeskin during his stay in the Naga territory, so Aurora made him a vest.

At this moment,

Ethan, wearing a snake-skin vest, was pointing to a simple map drawn on an open animal skin.

"We'll start from here and follow the distribution routes of the silver leaf fern and the tear moss."

"As far as I remember, they grow on the edge of the swamp, while the Naga territory is in the heart of the swamp."

Although the map is rudimentary, the anchor points are very clear.

Without saying anything more, Ren Yi shouldered his backpack and led the four of them into the jungle.

The jungle at night is another world.

Without the vibrant colors and novelties of the daytime, the group moved very quickly, with Ethan leading the way, Renyi following closely behind, and Ivan bringing up the rear.

The reason for rushing is to take advantage of a time difference.

The Naga army has just been decimated, and after the fleeing members bring back the news, the enraged queen will likely prepare for a swift and decisive victory.

This gap might be their best opportunity—

Stealing someone's home.

"stop."

He spoke softly, but everyone stopped immediately.

The sky was turning a pale white.

They had been traveling all night and could take a break when it was a little safer at dawn.

"We'll take turns resting; Ethan and I will be on the first shift."

No one objected, and the three of them immediately leaned against the tree trunk and began to sleep peacefully.

He casually handed Ethan a few pieces of dried meat and dried fruit.

The jungle quickly awoke from its slumber; the chirping of insects subsided, and the calls of unknown birds began to rise and fall.

In the midst of this peaceful scene, an unusual voice suddenly broke in.

"Squeak—chatter—crunch—"

The calls were very thin and high-pitched, and there seemed to be quite a few of them.

Interspersed among them were very dense, chaotic footsteps, and the sound of some small animal running, its claws scraping through fallen leaves.

Ivan had just woken up when he heard it, and he jumped up:

"Depend on......"

He muttered under his breath, "It can't be those monkeys again, can it?"

After listening carefully, I realized the sound belonged to a completely terrestrial creature, unlike the angry lizard monkey which moves through trees.

Although they approached from afar, it didn't seem like they were coming for them.

"It doesn't look like it, I'll go check."

He casually made a shushing gesture and silently moved toward the source of the sound.

"I'll go with you!"

Ethan quickly followed, even though Renyi was very strong, it wouldn't be good if he got lost.

The two hadn't gone far when the chattering and squeaking became even clearer.

"...Look." Ethan pulled Renyi back and silently pointed to the messy footprints on the ground.

Any: "..."

Aren't these the strange footprints, about the size of an adult male's foot and with three toes, that they found when they first landed on this land?

"I have some knowledge of fossils, and in my experience..."

Ethan stroked his chin and lowered his voice to say to Renyi,

"These should be footprints of a coelophysis from the Triassic period on Earth!"

Random: "?!"
