"Boom!"

A huge roar sounded. The power unleashed by the Thermal Battle Saber in the Captain's hands far surpassed the power it had when wielded by Locke.

In an instant, the Thermal Battle Saber erupted with an incredibly terrifying Energy Level, painting the world in fiery red hues.

Vehicles and some buildings on the street began to show signs of melting in the intense heat.

Holding the long saber, the Captain instantly slashed fiercely at the Furball Monster. The scorching heat energy burning on the Mechanical Battle Blade instantly carved a giant red crescent moon in the sky!

Under this strike, the Furball Monster, which had previously possessed immense power, was split open by a massive gash.

A strong smell of roasted meat instantly emanated from the Furball Monster's wound.

Seeing that this attack had successfully injured the Furball Monster, the Captain and all his team members showed expressions of surprise and delight.

This proved that even though the Captain's Energy Level using this Mechanical Battle Saber did not exceed that of the Furball Monster, it had reached the same level.

Only then could it injure the Furball Monster!

"Cover me, I'll kill this Furball Monster!" the Captain shouted loudly to his team members behind him.

Without hesitation, the team members unleashed all their skills, frantically attacking the Furball Monster's tentacles.

Although these team members' Energy Levels were not as high as the Furball Monster's, they could still have some effect if they focused on attacking its tentacles.

Soon, at the cost of two more team members' lives, the Captain, with the support of his team, successfully sliced the Furball Monster in half.

The most powerful Furball Monster died just like that.

The remaining Furball Monsters posed no threat to these soldiers and were easily annihilated by the squad.

The Captain cut open the Furball Monster's body and then took a piece of meat from it as a subject for research.

He had a feeling that the Furball Monster's appearance was somewhat unusual. Furball Monsters weren't normally this large; they must have been stimulated by some external factor to grow so big.

He decided to cut open a piece of the Furball Monster's flesh and take it back to Temporary Army No. 32's spaceship for research!

After completing all this, everyone returned to the spaceship.

The Captain handed the battle saber to Locke, his eyes filled with reluctance.

"Locke, this battle saber... are you selling it? I'll pay a hefty price to buy it!"

The Captain thought for a moment, then tentatively asked with a hopeful expression.

Originally, the Captain was unwilling to ask his team members for anything...

But this Mechanical Battle Saber was truly amazing!

Even with a Planet level Energy Level, it could unleash the power of this Mechanical Battle Saber.

It was practically the threshold of Planet level with the might of Star level.

Anyone who saw such a weapon would be envious!

If he could obtain this equipment, he could truly exert the power of a Level 5 Gene Warrior with his Level 4 lower-tier Energy Level!

Crossing an entire major level.

It was truly tempting.

Upon hearing the Captain's words, Locke quickly hugged the battle saber tightly like a treasure, then looked at the Captain with a thief-like gaze.

"Captain, for us soldiers, our weapons are like our wives. A brother's wife is not to be trifled with!"

Locke glanced sideways at the Captain and said vigilantly.

He already felt a bit green around the gills when he temporarily lent the battle saber to the Captain for the sake of the entire team's survival.

Now that the Captain had enjoyed himself, he was actually coveting his precious battle saber.

How could Locke tolerate this!

However, they had a good relationship, so he wasn't truly guarding against him like a thief.

A deep disappointment flashed in the Captain's eyes, and he sighed helplessly, saying, "What a pity. Your battle saber is truly useful. Its value could probably even rival some top-tier Star level equipment!"

Hearing the Captain's words, a hint of pride flashed in Locke's eyes, and he snorted lightly, saying, "Of course. This was crafted for me by Master Su Ming!"

"Master Su Ming?" The Captain was taken aback, then asked curiously, "Who is this Master Su Ming? Why don't you introduce me? I want him to craft a Mechanical Battle Saber for me too!"

Hearing the Captain's words, Locke couldn't help but laugh and cry, saying, "Captain, you've been cooped up in the spaceship for too long. Master Su Ming is a Mechanic who recently joined Temporary Army No. 32. My weapon was modified by him!"

Upon hearing Locke's words, the surrounding team members were all surprised and crowded around Locke, chattering excitedly.

"I think I remember. Two mechanics did join the spaceship recently!"

"It was them? I remember both of them were Planet level Mechanics. How could they modify such powerful equipment?"

Just then, someone nearby said proudly, "You guys don't know this, but I was there when Locke was modifying his battle saber. This Master Su Ming isn't old, but he's very skilled. He repaired and modified this battle saber in about 40 minutes!"

"What, 40 minutes?" another person exclaimed. "The original Planet level Mechanic took three to four hours for just one repair, and that was only for repair, not modification. This Master Su Ming managed to complete both repair and modification in 40 minutes? Amazing!"

"Heh, I went to Mechanic Harry for repairs before, and it took me four hours. And that Harry has a terrible temper and is quite arrogant. You have to put up with a lot of annoyance to get him to fix something!"

Another person said with a cold laugh.

Harry was the sole Planet level Mechanic who had been with Temporary Army No. 32 before.

As soon as Harry was mentioned, the entire spaceship erupted in complaints.

The Captain, however, did not join the discussion.

A thoughtful expression appeared on his face. He then glanced at his previously damaged planet-level firearm, a hint of anticipation subtly showing in his eyes...

Approximately several hours later, the squad piloted their spaceship back to the main vessel.

After returning the spaceship to the attendant, the Captain immediately disembarked and hurried towards the dormitory section of the ship.

"Captain, where are you off to? Let's go relax after finishing the mission?"

A teammate behind him said with a smile.

The Captain turned around, a smile on his face, and replied, "I have something else to attend to. You guys go ahead, I won't be joining!"

For soldiers like them, while they could earn a fortune in a short period, it often came with a significant risk of death.

This time, for instance, four members had perished permanently on Muta Planet, never to return.

Therefore, everyone in the temporary army would indulge in revelry and debauchery after completing a mission to vent the stress of military service.

It was a tradition for the squad.

But this time, the Captain chose not to participate.

The others exchanged glances, understanding dawning in their eyes.

"Let's go. The Captain was so impressed by Master Su Ming's modification skills that he couldn't walk away. He's probably heading straight for Master Su Ming now!"
