"Alright, I'll go, okay? But I need a moment. Without some protection, I'm not venturing out there."

Lin Xiao, seeing Lian Feng's exasperated state, decided not to tease her further. His reluctance to go stemmed from his sixth sense.

With his brain domain development reaching 25%, his sixth sense had significantly improved. This trip held danger, a warning his sixth sense provided.

Though a month seemed short, Lin Xiao had accomplished much.

He hadn't managed to create the miniature nuclear reactor yet, but there was a readily available one he could use for now.

Dark Alloy had been produced. Although he obtained the formula from Lian Feng, it didn't seem to be the most potent kind.

His materials and technology were limited, resulting in inferior Dark Alloy, lacking god-killing power.

Moreover, Dark Alloy had drawbacks. He was building an Iron Man armor, almost entirely made of Dark Alloy except for specific parts. This meant that individuals with super-soldier genes couldn't enter the armor at all.

The high Dark Iron content radiated power that would disrupt the super-soldier's genes, causing a terrifying burden on their bodies.

Even someone of Holy Keisha's caliber couldn't wear armor containing so much Dark Iron.

Super-soldier armor actually contained very little Dark Iron, mainly used for critical defense and stealth functions.

The most amazing thing was that ordinary people could use it without any harm to normal genes.

After a month of effort, by analyzing the wreckage of the damaged Iron Man, Lin Xiao finally created this armor, equipped with the latest artificial intelligence system.

Apart from some shortcomings in the weapon systems, this armor was slightly superior in terms of material and power.

Tony Stark was a genius, but Lin Xiao was no slouch. If he was slightly inferior in energy and weapons, he would surpass him in other aspects.

The Iron Man armor was assembled. Because a considerable amount of inferior Dark Alloy was added, the armor was all black. After installing the flight wings and miniature nuclear reactor, the armor was officially activated.

"Xia Lan! Go paint yourself!"

Lin Xiao gave this armor a name. For a long time, this armor would protect him, and he couldn't just call it Iron Man, could he?

The Xia Lan Mecha wasn't large, but it consumed a lot of Dark Iron. The unrefined ore in the lab had been used up, much to Du Kao's distress.

This type of armor couldn't be mass-produced for the time being. This one was made for himself.

For combat, it was more cost-effective to build Terminators, because Terminators only needed a metal skeleton, with the rest being bionic skin, saving a lot of materials.

He had already started manufacturing the Terminator T800, and he was also researching the liquid metal for the Terminator T1000.

The Super Brain had been greatly improved, allowing him to simultaneously perform calculations for multiple projects.

Now, all that was left was to complete the development of the miniature nuclear reactor, and he could have several Dark Alloy governors who could fly, as his bodyguards.

The concept of flight capability was suggested by Lian Feng. Robots weren't affected by Dark Alloy, and with the blueprints provided by Lian Feng as a basis, the flight wings were quickly created.

"Dr. Lin, Xia Lan has completed the mission."

Lin Xiao took a look. The red and blue colors were quite nice. This fool even learned to salute him like a human.

Lin Xiao classified the mecha into three categories. The first category was auxiliary intelligent type, where the artificial intelligence only provided auxiliary analysis, and all actions relied on the human operator inside.

The second category was semi-intelligent, like the Xia Lan Mecha, which could perform simple actions on its own but couldn't engage in precise combat.

The third category was fully intelligent, where the operator only needed to issue commands inside, like playing a game.

But these are just ideas. If I could really upgrade artificial intelligence to that level, I'd just build robots directly.

As for robot types, Lin Xiao is only researching the Terminator series for now. His dream is to upgrade artificial intelligence into a Fire Source, capable of giving robots souls, but that's still too far off.

He'll study it when his brain development is higher. For now, he doesn't even have a concept in his mind.

"This is for you."

Lian Feng handed Lin Xiao a black bracelet, then looked at the highly intelligent Xia Lan in front of her, and couldn't help but admire him.

Mechs aren't anything special. The Hate People Alliance of M Country has a genuine Iron Man.

Lin Xiao only upgraded the materials. The mechs are copied from the original, and he hasn't even successfully replicated the key technology of the miniature nuclear reactor, so they're not worth mentioning.

But this artificial intelligence is truly a stroke of genius. If it could be mass-produced, there would be no need for soldiers to charge into battle; robots could replace them.

It's a pity that Lin Xiao seems to be worried about something and is unwilling to manufacture ordinary robots on a large scale.

If Lin Xiao knew what Lian Feng was thinking, he would definitely retort with a sarcastic remark, "Please go and learn about Skynet."

Unrestricted artificial intelligence could become the key to destruction. He even wears the artificial intelligence mainframe on his face.

Before he has complete control and restrictions, he can only take physical precautions. If something goes wrong, he'll just destroy the glasses.

"Is this the Dark Dimension Wormhole Driver?"

"Yes, although you used so much Dark Alloy, you can't use dark energy to activate its properties. You can only rely on the strong defense of the Dark Alloy. Besides, your alloy is still inferior and needs to be improved."

"What you're doing can only narrow the gap with super soldiers. First and second generation warriors might still be useful with their strength and defense, but against those gods, these will be vulnerable. The Victorious Fighting Buddha's Five Finger Mountain is actually a powerful spatial compression ability. If you don't have the ability to counter it, no matter how many of these mechs go over, they will be crushed into iron balls."

"I won't discourage you either. You don't have super genes, so you can't drive dark energy, and you can't use micro wormhole teleportation technology. This bracelet cost us a lot of effort. It can help you store and retrieve things in the dark dimension. Be careful, it's really precious."

Lin Xiao is a little confused now. Lian Feng's words are very harsh today. Is she here to discourage him? But who said he only has mechanical technology? When his brain development reaches 50%, he'll let a god try him.

"Hehe, I also know some of the history of genetic technology. It may already be hundreds of thousands of years old. My mechanical technology has only just begun, so naturally, it can't be compared. But don't underestimate artificial intelligence and these mechs. No matter how strong you are, if you can't analyze them, you're helpless."

Just wait, when the Fire Source, doomsday mechs, and the like come out, he'll let these gods see what terror is.

Lin Xiao looked at the black bracelet on his hand. Spatial technology is indeed awesome, but how many people can use spatial technology to fight? The monkey is an ally.

The bracelet activated, and the space around Xia Lan fluctuated. Lin Xiao sent it into the dark dimension.

"Let's go, let's prepare to set off and pick up my assistant."

Lin Xiao waved his hand and led the way out of the laboratory, with Lian Feng quickly following.

Giant Hero City, on a remote beach, ten steel figures slowly walked out of the sea.

A middle-aged man in a black swallowtail coat, wearing a monocle, and holding a cane, stood on the beach, watching the figures emerging from the water.

These ten figures were all steel mechs like the ones that attacked Lin Xiao last time.

One of the mechs opened, and a tall Westerner walked out, placing a hand on his chest and bowing to the middle-aged man.

"Butler, hello. We are here on the order of the master to report to you."

"Well, very good. I have received the message that Dr. Lin will come to Giant Hero City today. This time, we must capture him in one fell swoop."

The butler looked at the ten metal figures and nodded with satisfaction. This lineup can be described as quite powerful.

"Butler, I don't quite understand. He's just a somewhat famous scientist, so why is the family making such a big deal out of it, bringing the family's power to the surface?"

"What do you know? 'Somewhat famous'? This Dr. Lin is a big deal. Otherwise, why would China attach so much importance to him? Just his achievements in mechanics alone are worth the family's efforts. Alright, this isn't something you should be asking about. Has that important secret weapon been taken care of?"

The butler tapped the ground with his ledger, asking with a cold face. These guys were overstepping their bounds. Could they just inquire about the family's intentions?

"Don't be angry, Butler. Just a moment of curiosity. We've taken care of what you asked for. A single shot of anesthetic from a sniper rifle, done. It was easy."

"Hmm, very good. Don't underestimate those guys. The family is very wary of them. Be careful, and don't mess it up."

"Don't worry, sir. This is China now. No matter what, it won't be us who are unlucky."

"That's good. Proceed according to the plan, and await my instructions."

The butler looked at the iron cage carried by the mecha. Inside lay a man in a white coat, currently unconscious.

With this person, the operation was guaranteed. The failure of the last operation, the deaths of those trash mercenaries, didn't matter, but the loss of four mecha made him lose face.

This time, it would definitely be foolproof. If all else failed, he could just kill that Dr. Lin, at least to save some face.
