Chapter 406 - Activation, Birth of the Mechanical Angel
After quickly formulating a plan to complete the ascension mission, Lu Ran entered the ruin space and retrieved a box labeled “Confidential Delivery,” which contained the intelligent mechanical angel.
He opened the box and lifted out the child robot. It resembled a two-year-old with uneven blue short hair, a white collar around its neck that seemed to serve no clear purpose, and a pair of tiny blue wings on its back. It looked like a large plush toy or figurine.
“Haih, it’s too cute. How can I bear to send it to hell to work after activation?”
Lu Ran’s conscience lasted only a few seconds before he began disassembling its head according to the instructions, locating the AI chip.
Next, he took out the Epic amplification card and pressed it against the AI chip, his face twisting in pain. He hadn’t expected to use such a rare resource so soon, but he hoped this enhancement would prove valuable and bring him great rewards in this ascension mission.
[Do you wish to enhance the AI chip of the research-type mechanical angel (inactive)? After enhancement, the quality of the AI chip will rise from Treasure to Epic.]
“Yes.”
Lu Ran couldn’t help but marvel at the wonders of the resources dropped by Limitless City. If only he had more Epic amplification cards. For instance, he could remove Dark Crow’s Treasure-grade eyeball, enhance it to Epic, and then surgically reattach it. Enhancing resources this way was far more compatible than directly consuming external resources for self-improvement.
Most of the resources on Captain Doofus and the others were only at the Treasure grade, which was still a significant gap from Epic. Currently, the only one in Lu Ran’s team capable of dropping Epic-grade or higher resources was the Six-Paths Flower, which had already met its end.
“You’re already ahead of the curve before even being born. You’d better repay us all properly after birth!”
After completing the enhancement, Lu Ran reassembled the mechanical angel and pressed the activation button on its collar as instructed.
The next moment, the mechanical angel’s eyes snapped open. It had red irises with densely flowing pale numerical symbols, exuding an air of profound mystery.
