Chapter 17

In the middle of the night, when Shen Liang knocked on Xia Lu's door carrying the large and small bags he bought from shopping, Xia Lu opened the door a crack.

After she saw Shen Liang sleepily, she felt no sleepiness at all: "Come back so late? You are still carrying so many things, are you a thief?"

Shen Liang smiled and opened the door forcefully.

"They're all gifts to you."

Xia Lu was still chattering: "Okay, instead of going to a star-rated hotel, you came here to harm my sleep... When you came to me so late, I thought it was a ghost knocking on the door..."

Shen Liang shushed: "Treat me well now, and I will take care of you in the future."

Xia Lu gave her an inscrutable look: "I have a pension, do you need to support me?"

As she spoke, she summoned the housekeeping robot to make Shen Liang's bed.

The next day, Xia Lu was going to the No. 13 Military Region Administrative Office.

Xia Lu asked Shen Liang, "Do you want to go together?"

Shen Liang was still lying on the bed, and Xia Lu lifted her quilt and opened the curtains: "It's only been a few days since graduation and you've learned to sleep in?"

The sun shone into the room. Shen Liang turned over on the bed, glanced at Xia Lu with squinted eyes, and then covered his head with a pillow: "If you don't want to go, you want me to accompany you to work as a social animal in the [-]th Military Region?"

Xia Lu: "I want to take you to the [-]th Military Region today to make mechas. Are you sure you don't want to go?"

Shen Liang yawned. She disliked Xia Lu for being too noisy.

"The mecha is so expensive, I can't afford it."

Xia Lu: "Because you said you wanted to support me in my retirement last night, I can consider lending you some money, or...if I'm in a good mood, I can give you one as a gift for your entrance into college."

Shen Liang was mostly asleep: "When did you secretly get rich behind my back? It costs a lot of money to buy a mecha, let alone customize it."

Xia Lu: "Are you going? If you don't go, forget it."

Shen Liang suddenly sat up from the bed, with a few dull hairs sticking out of his head.Her eyes lit up: "Go, I'll go."

She has always wanted to have her own mecha.

The Mecha Research Institute of the Thirteenth Military Region consists of three parts: the research institute office, laboratory and factory building.

Shen Liang wore the sunglasses Xia Lu gave her and went to the laboratory first under the leadership of Xu Zhengqian, director of the institute.

Xu Zhengqian was a short, fat, red-faced, balding middle-aged man. When he saw Shen Liang, he trotted towards her with a smile, his stomach trembling.

He blinked happily at Shen Liang: "Student Shen Liang, Captain Xia Lu has already explained the situation to me. We need to test your mecha data first. Please come with me first."

Shen Liang raised his eyebrows: "Captain?"

Xu Zhengqian: "Yes, classmate Shen Liang. After Captain Xia Lu went to Huangxing for a few years, she was promoted when she came back. She was originally a lieutenant."

His statement was not consistent with Xia Lu's statement, and Shen Liang didn't take it to heart.

Xu Zhengqian took Shen into a laboratory.

The four walls of the laboratory were made of transparent materials. There was a metal bed in the middle of the laboratory. After Shen Liang lay down on the bed as instructed, Xu Zhengqian pushed an instrument placed in the corner of the laboratory towards her.

He straightened out the tangled wires on the instrument and pressed it against the cold skin.

The instrument was activated, and there was a slight tingling sensation on the cool skin.

Various data about Shen Liang's body soon appeared on the transparent wall.

"Strange." He murmured to himself, "There should be nothing wrong with the instrument..."

Shen Liang was lying on the bed. She opened her eyes and saw densely intertwined threads: "Is there any problem?"

"Yes." Xu Zhengqian chewed his pen anxiously, "Your attack data is a bit ridiculously high. If I remember correctly, your mental power is S-level, but your attack data is as high as the mental power of our Majesty the Boch Federation. It will be almost as high when it reaches SSS level." Shen Liang moved his wrist easily: "That's not easy yet, let's take the test again."

Xu Zhengqian: "Okay, then I have to trouble you to endure the pain a little longer."

The stinging pain came more frequently. Shen Liang lay on the bed, biting his lower lip, and curiously observed Xu Zhengqian's face, which was mostly covered by the thread.

Xu Zhengqian took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Shen Liang: "Is it still wrong?"

Xu Zhengqian: "Yes, the data value is higher."

Shen Liang looked relaxed: "What did you adjust just now?"

Xu Zhengqian: "I raised the sensitivity of the instrument a little bit."

Shen Liang guessed: "Or, is there a possibility that it's not that the data is wrong, but that my attack power data is really high."

Xu Zhengqian frowned, seeming to be thinking.

"This is the first time I've encountered this situation since I've been working as a mecha for decades."

Shen Liang: "Then you maximize the sensitivity of the instrument and test my extreme data. I want the best possible mecha. If the mecha I make doesn't work well, I'll get one from the research institute. Use ordinary S-class mechas."

Xu Zhengqian breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I'd like to trouble you to endure the sting again."

Shen Liang lay relaxed on the bed.She imagined herself as a corpse, letting the pain stimulate her nerves.

"Okay." Xu Zhengqian took out his handkerchief and wiped his cold sweat, "Which designer do you want to ask to design the mecha for you?"

Shen Liang sat up from the bed and touched his neck that was stinging from the electricity: "Who is the best mecha master here?"

Xu Zhengqian puffed up his chest proudly: "That's right."

Shen Liang: "Okay, then it's up to you. Did Xia Lu tell you who will give you the money?"

Xu Zhengqian handed Shen Liang a business card, which listed the various honors he had received over the years.

He took advantage of Shen Liang to read his business card and sent her a contract for custom-made mechas: "You are a customer introduced by Captain Xia Lu. You are considered a member of the 59th Military Region. You can get a [-]% discount on mecha production. Discount..." He signed his name on the contract and calculated the price: "[-] federal coins. How will you pay?"

Shen Liang took a card Xia Lu gave her, thought about it, and then swiped it shamelessly.

Xu Zhengqian smiled broadly: "Are you interested in visiting our mecha factory?"

Shen Liang touched his nose: "Is that okay? I thought your factory here was also confidential."

Xu Zhengqian bowed comically: "It is an honor for me, the director of the research institute, that a VIP customer like you is willing to visit the mecha factory."

The factory is piled with corpses of star beasts transported from the front lines of the Thirteenth Military Region.When Shen Liang walked into the factory, he was hit by a rotten smell.

She covered her nose and tried not to vomit.

Xu Zhengqian handed her a mask: "This is the workshop where the corpses of star beasts are processed. Are you interested in taking a closer look?"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "No, it smells too bad. I can't stand it..."

Xu Zhengqian: "Okay, let's go to the next workshop to visit."

The next workshop is the workshop for making mechas.Shen Liang watched with fascination as a piece of metal changed shape under the control of the mecha master.

Seeing her curiosity, Xu Zhengqian told her: "This is the function of spiritual power."

Shen Liang: "Can mental power still be used like this?"
