Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Chapter 775 106. Engineering Miracle·Pocket Computing Device-Added update for your Canaan brothers【1315】

Little Xingxing, and little Gianna, please rub some more magic water out. Also, I hope you have taken a shower before coming.

At night, Blake shouted to the girls who were sitting on the spider tank and rushed into Rustbolt Town, and were surrounded by a large group of mechanical gnomes. While making them look at each other, he took out a bottle of wine and opened it calmly. He took a sip into his mouth.

Although Trixie kept reminding him, it wasn't until Prince Erazmin mentioned it that Blake realized how bad it was to temporarily live in a place without clean water.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of wine in my bag to soothe my throat, but if I stay here for too long, I can't take a bath with wine, right?

With this slightly nonsensical thought, Black walked into the comfortable room arranged for himself by His Highness the Mechanical Prince.

Well, you have to bend down to enter a dwarf's house, and it is very low and depressing from a human perspective. The metal walls are also dotted with shining light strips, giving it a gaudy feel.

He played with the pocket computing device he had just received from Erazmin, sat down on the bed, and began to tinker with this new gadget.

Its appearance is similar to the watch Trixie gave him for navigation before. It is much thicker than ordinary watches. It is said that there is a micro energy battery inside, and it needs to be charged once a week.

Under the dial with a strong industrial simplicity, you can see many gears rotating.

There are also some unknown gadgets inside, which look like strange-shaped circuit boards. Under this device, there are several slots, which are consistent with the shape of the punch card chips used by gnomes.

In Blake's other hand, he held a small pocket filled with colorful punch card chips, which were all types of enhanced chips currently in the hands of the Rustbolt Resistance Army.

The little gnomes on the island call this black technology subroutine.

You only need to choose the subroutine card that suits you and insert it. This computing device has been improved by His Highness. It is plug-and-play and very convenient.

Different subroutines can be used for different purposes.

Trixie sat cross-legged on a chair in the room, skillfully took a pile of punch cards and chips from the pirate's hand, casually pulled out a blue and a yellow card, shook them in front of the pirate's eyes, and said:

This was the most popular 'identifier friend or foe' on the island before the riots. It allows you to hack into the programs that track all the mechanical creations around you and identify their ownership.

There is also this universal logic motherboard. After plugging it in, the pocket calculator can enhance the effects of various mechanical modules in our bodies.

Well, you don't have mechanical reinforcements in your body, so the logic board is useless to you.

But it doesn't matter!

The mechanical gnome shrugged, she pointed at the double-barreled shotgun hanging on Blake's chest and said:

I just need to add a few capacitors to your gun, modify it a little, and connect it to your pocket computing device. These punch card chips can at least enhance the destructive power of your weapon.

But to get the best out of this device, you'd better give yourself some reinforcements.

What I mean is that you have a lot of extra flesh and blood on your body, and the corresponding functions are also defective. We need to make some improvements for this. Perhaps start with upgrading the cranial nerves.

Don't be afraid of pain.

Trixie raised her left hand, and a screwdriver popped out with her index finger spinning. She waved her finger and said:

It's just a small surgery. I drill a hole in your skull and put some adaptive nanobots in it. It will increase your combat effectiveness by at least 10%!

Uh, forget it.

When Blake heard this, he threw aside the pocket computing device in his hand. He pulled out the double-barreled shotgun from his chest, rubbed it in his hand, rubbed his forehead and said:

I can accept the update and modification of weapons, but I feel that the 'nano' you are talking about and the 'nano' I know are not the same thing.

I am very satisfied with my current flesh and blood body and have no plans to remake or strengthen myself.

Put that dangerous thing down!

My useless subordinates may need this, but I don't. Well, speaking of this, the freshman season of Nathalas College will be in one month. You might be able to go back to the college with me.

If this 'small modification' can make those students learn more efficiently, I think those little guys who are fanatically pursuing knowledge will not refuse.

Maybe we can offer them a new Titan Engineering course at the academy.

Well, that's a great idea.

The dean will be very happy with the arrival of new knowledge.

Magic Academy?

Trixie tilted her head and said:

Like Dalaran? I heard those people in Kul Tiras say that your human magic city seems to be called that name.

Dalaran is a thing of the past. It's already finished over there.

Blake waved his hand, picked up his pipe and said:

Nathras Academy is another concept, but we can talk about this later. Let's talk about Bondo. I noticed a change in your expression just now.

Do you think it would be bad if I brought Bondo back?

No, I just think that if you kill him on the spot, boss, everyone will be relaxed.

Trixie pouted and said:

Now that he is brought back and falls into the hands of a kind-hearted prince, he will definitely not die. But there is no way for Yuanshe to explain that she betrayed Bondo in the true sense.

Once Bondo gains power again in the future, Long Shot will probably be sought for revenge.

What does that have to do with us?

Blake blew out a smoke ring and said:

That cunning dealer has no interest in us. She is not your friend. She is an acquaintance at best. It seems that she will not cooperate well with us.

Bringing Bondo back will at least put some pressure on her. I have to take away the high-energy charging pile in the courtyard. If she doesn't give it to me, I think Bondo will be willing to talk to me about ownership rights.

Also, I let Bondo go because he paid for his life.

He hid his two clockwork robots in the caveman's lair. I went to see them and they were well maintained. All the necessary weapon modules were added and they were ready for battle at any time.

You know what’s the most exaggerated thing?

The pirate grinned and said:

Bondo used the parts he picked up from the garbage dump on the island to build an air suppression aircraft! Although it is not finished yet, I think it can basically fly.

and this!

Blake looked around, took out a rolled up blueprint from his arms, and placed it in front of Trixie. The latter opened it and took a quick look, then immediately jumped up from the chair.

She exclaimed:

This is the original design drawing of the HK-8 air unit!

The legend turned out to be true, and Bondo actually had this thing in his hands.

Although the performance is definitely not as good as those serious upgraded products in the hands of the king, as long as we have the design drawings, we can produce this thing ourselves.

According to Bondo, he stole this picture from King Mechagon's laboratory on the night of the city riots. This is the reason why I spared Bondo's life.

Blake also smiled like a fox who stole a chicken. He blew smoke rings beautifully and said:

“Even if I help Prince Erazmin recapture Mechagon, help him kill his father and make him king, he will not fully share Mechagon’s most advanced technology with me.

This has nothing to do with gratitude. As long as he still has brains, he will not do that.

But I don't want to be stuck in his neck.

With this map and we get the right to use the Mechagon production line, we can build the aircraft ourselves, even one in two or three months. I have time to wait.

For the sake of this blueprint, it's nothing more than Bondo's life, so give it to him.

Having said this, the pirate flexed his fingers.

He looked at Trixie and said:

Then we have to have a serious talk about your stay.

You said before that you wanted the right to rule Bondo's courtyard, but seeing that you were willing to give up power to Yuan She, I knew that you actually had no sense of belonging to that courtyard.

Do you want to go back to Mechagon? Or do you want to join my fleet? If you want to join us, I can give you the power to organize a faction of mechanical pirates.

You are a talent, and it is even rarer that you have shown a very cooperative attitude during this time.

There is a shortage of mechanics like you in my fleet. Besides, I don’t want to fight in a wooden ship all the time. That makes me very insecure.

Be a pirate?

Trixie hesitated, then said:

It's not impossible. I learned a lot that night during the Mechagon riot. The so-called peace and tranquility are just our wishful thinking.

The world is not peaceful at all, and I also want to see more knowledge and scenery.

But when I'm not fighting, I prefer to study my engineering. We mechanical gnomes all like this. You see how crazy Bondo is, but he is actually a good engineering master.

Something might have gone wrong during his self-transformation, which shocked his spirit.

Then join the Academy of Narthalath and add more transformations to the ancient wisdom.

Blake made a decision, took out a blank letter of appointment from his arms, wrote on it on the spot, then twisted his master's seal and stamped his seal on the letter of appointment.

Handed it to Trixie.

The latter took it in his hand and looked at it. It said that she was hired to be the tutor of the engineering faction under the Warlock School of Narthalas College. It also stated that a special area would be allocated to her on Tol Barad Island. Research.

What made Trixie feel most excited was that Blake's appointment letter specifically stated that a certain amount of research funds would be allocated to her laboratory every year.

Wow, boss, are you so generous to everyone under your command?

Trixie asked in an exaggerated tone.

Blake shrugged and said slowly:

I want to say no, but if you think this will allow you to serve me more carefully, then you can continue to maintain this idea. Okay, go out now, I want to take a good rest.

In order to cope with the conversation that will begin with His Royal Highness tomorrow.

Trixie exits with the offer letter.

The pirate picked up the pocket computing device on the table again and looked at it. This time, he looked carefully, so the character card also gave an entry:

Name: Pocket Computing Device (Prince Erazmin Customized Version)

Quality: Epic

Item effects:

Insert three punch card chips to activate the pocket calculator for temporary enhancements.

Item description:

This is a great achievement of mechanical gnome engineering and a powerful weapon for them to demonstrate their mechanical power. But to get the most out of it, you may need to undergo a little tweaking.

Or could we call it the “price of power”?

Blake looked at the red, blue, and yellow punch card chips in his other hand, and the character card quickly gave an explanation:

Red punch card·Subroutine·Ballistic analysis:

Before a micro energy battery is consumed, it temporarily strengthens the user's reaction ability, greatly improving the user's ability to capture and dodge long-range attacks, and greatly reducing the damage received.

Blue Punch Card Neural Autonomy Protocol:

Before a miniature energy battery is consumed, the neural silencer module is temporarily activated to stabilize the mind and suppress emotions, making the user immune to some worries while stimulating nerves to increase reaction speed and learning efficiency.

Yellow punch card·powerful logic motherboard:

Before a micro energy battery is consumed, the logic motherboard enhancement is temporarily activated, which greatly improves the operating efficiency of all enhancement modules in the user's body, increasing strength by 10% in combat and increasing the probability of a critical hit by 10%.

Punch Card Instructions:

The effect of the chip subroutine depends on the degree of mechanical reinforcement in the user's body. Without the implantation of mechanical modules, the pocket calculator designed for mechanical gnomes can only realize some auxiliary functions.

Oh, it's a good thing, but it's of no use to me.

Blake sighed, touched the pocket calculator in his hand, selected three auxiliary function chips and inserted them into it.

As the computing device was activated, a layer of optical projection floated on the surface of the watch-like calculator, showing a map of the entire Mechagon Island before the pirates' eyes.

It's very similar to what it looks like when you open the big map in the game.

This makes the pirates somewhat nostalgic.

Although it's useless to me, it's very useful to the incompetent pirates under my command.

The smelly pirate looked at the shining optical projection in front of him, grinned, and said with full malice:

It's just a fantasy to expect those bastards to take the path of strength. Since each one of them is unwilling to make progress and always wants to be lazy, then don't blame me for trying to find a way to help you 'destroy your talents'.

What a great thing.

My undead pirates must each have one! Anyway, pirates have to wear prosthetic legs and hook blades, so if you don’t want them, you have to give them to me.

Well, great, with this ‘super coward savior’, I won’t have to worry about cannon fodder getting hurt anymore.
