Although the senior engineer is very fierce when he's chopping people up, he's actually a very cunning person.

For example, he knew that the original owner was ambushed, which was definitely not an accident, but he has not investigated it in depth so far. The reason is simple: he was too weak at the time, and the chance of revenge was not high.

For example, he was aware of the Knights' plans, such as the location of their command post, the distribution of their biological factories, and even who and which forces would stand with the Knights in the future.

However, he did not choose to play the role of Zhuge Liang, who predicted the future, or even fan the flames and use others' strength against him. Instead, he honestly focused on completing tasks and improving the transformation rate.

For example, even if the security team stole his blueprints and Zhao Xie sabotaged him, he would just quietly dig a pit for them.

As someone who can survive until the game shuts down with just one life in online games, Gao Gong rarely does anything extremely risky. What seems dangerous to outsiders is actually something he is at least 70-80% confident about.

This guy had the reputation of Guan Yu, but he actually shared the same interests as Cao Cao and ultimately followed the path of Sima Yi.

Such a shrewish person usually doesn't get angry, but once they do, it's usually quite serious.

Few people know that in his previous life, as a leader of civilization, Gao Gong was one of the few who dared to confront the "natural disasters" head-on, even though he was beaten badly and the mainframes of hundreds of planets were smashed.

However, he also developed a series of physical models of the other party, which sold quite well in the cosmic black market.

Although this natural disaster is not a cosmic disaster, it is a civilizational disaster that is second only to cosmic disasters. And the leader of the disaster is a perverted woman called the Queen of Blades!

"Steal my house."

The senior engineer sat on a broken iron barrel, tapping his knee with one hand. Although he had a smiling expression, the two women who knew him well knew that he was very angry.

Even the woman who usually loved to argue with the senior engineer became much quieter.

It wasn't that she liked quiet, but a couple of times she really annoyed the engineer, and the next day he drew her a thick stack of "notebooks" and threatened her that if she bothered him again, he would give her notebooks to other people, such as Meng Duoduo, the tribe's number one warrior who had a crush on her.

He had no idea what the other person was doing with the notebook.

The young woman immediately bowed her head in reverence, promising never to cause trouble again. Then she secretly took the notebook back and read it all night with a flushed face and a racing heart. It must be said, the content was quite stimulating.

Soon, a figure appeared in the guard's field of vision and walked in with a cheerful expression.

"Daisy!!" The young woman's face lit up, and she quickly went to greet her.

"Are you alright?" Du Zhaodi asked hurriedly.

"What could possibly happen to me? I feel pretty good right now."

Despite the large burns on Daisy's spider exoskeleton, she was in a very good mood and slammed the spider silk cocoon on her back to the ground with a bang.

"Boss, I have accomplished my mission. This is the corpse of the Flame Knight."

The senior engineer glanced at the other person and asked, "How are you feeling now?"

"Very good!"

The Knights' Modified Knights are level 20 elite monsters, and Daisy, after being modified, has also broken through the limits of mechanical hunters.

The two should have been evenly matched, and the Flame Knight should have been slightly stronger, given his superior level of modification capabilities with Mech Technology.

Just like the saying, "The same move cannot be used twice against a Saint."

The same moves will inevitably be countered by the "Mechanical Hunter Modification" against the Mechanical Hunter.

"However, boss, I'm afraid I'll need to readjust my 'Spider Module' outfit."

Daisy didn't stand on ceremony and stripped naked in front of the senior engineer. The automatically detached "spider module" transformed into a millstone-sized spider with eight nimble legs that crawled towards her.

The senior engineer glanced at the other man but didn't say anything. He had measured every part of the man's body and had personally fitted many of his parts. Moreover, probably influenced by the habits of spiders, this guy had awakened some kind of peculiar fetish and was currently showing off his physique in front of the young woman, making her nose bleed.

He looked down and checked the performance of the 'Spider Module'. As the first piece of equipment he had created specifically for his profession, he was quite concerned about it.

Tsk, if it weren't for the fact that the 'Spider Module' has a low ceiling, the senior engineer would have liked to build one for himself.

Generally speaking, equipment is classified into four levels: basic (mass-produced), excellent (custom template), superior (war weapon), rare (strategic weapon), epic (cutting-edge technology), and epoch-making (cross-civilization).

Only those that reach the level of Rare or above can undergo civilization transformation, that is, upgrade from Level 1 civilization equipment to Level 2 civilization equipment.

If a level 1 civilization's equipment does not reach the rare level, the maximum level is 30.

What's even more frustrating is that although these implantable devices can be removed, the increased rate of human system modification as a result does not decrease.

From a sustainable development perspective, this weapon is not suitable for senior engineers.

But let alone in the Iron Sand Desert, even in the City That Never Sleeps, this piece of equipment would be a top-tier item that people would fight tooth and nail to get their hands on at any weapon shop.

"How does it feel to use?" the foreman asked without looking up.

Daisy perked up and quickly pointed out some minor issues with the 'Spider Module.' These issues weren't performance problems, but rather simply didn't match her fighting style.

The senior engineer listened attentively. Modifying equipment could also improve his design skills. After all, he would be creating a series of "Hunter Modules" in the future, so the more experience he had, the better.

"By the way, boss, I want to have that guy's flamethrower system installed on me."

The senior engineer glanced at the spider cocoon. "The Knights' modification technology is quite troublesome."

Daisy leaned closer with a flirtatious look on her face and said in a coquettish voice, "Boss, please help me out, I'll keep you company, okay?"

Du Zhaodi frowned.

The senior engineer said in a serious and righteous tone, "What do you take me for? Put your clothes on first, I'll look into it later."

He didn't understand the Knights' technology, but there was information about it in some of the beast-transformation weapon factories.

If you come to raid my hometown, wouldn't it be very disrespectful of me not to visit you?

The senior engineer decided to bring forward some of the future plans.

For example, during the "Beast Disaster," Mother City developed a "Speed Extinction Energy Agent" for low-level irradiated beasts. Applying this energy agent to bullets could instantly kill low-level irradiated beasts.

He originally planned to develop the medicine when he was developing a new oasis.

He currently lacks the professional knowledge necessary to develop this drug.

But there's a shortcut.

"Boss, we've caught him!"

Old Qian's excited voice came through the earphones, but then he said in a strange tone, "It's just that this woman looks a bit odd."

Record a clip using the "Special Effects Machine" and send it to me to take a look.

"Okay, I'll look into it and see how this function works."

After a flurry of activity, Lao Qian finally finished recording the 'virtual projection' and sent it over. The senior engineer then pressed the 'electronic button'.

Soon, something was launched, and everyone who saw it was stunned.

"Electronic Knight, is she a little girl?"

A little girl with a shaved head and bound hand and foot appeared in front of them.

"Is this the real form of Cyber Knight?" Even Huang Wen, who was usually calm, was surprised as an electronic voice came from the drone.

"To be precise, it's one of the main entities," the senior engineer glanced at the other party before looking away, "The Knights' genetically modified babies can be used as storage containers for electronic biological viruses."

"So, the true form of that electronic knight is a group of little girls." The young woman looked astonished.

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"Uh, no, it just feels really weird."

"Boss, I've ordered the mechanical beast troops to remain hidden."

"Hide them? Why hide them?" The senior engineer stood up and cracked his neck. "Let them all out."

"Release them? What are we going to do with them?"

"Some people always think I'm an easy target, a lone wolf. This time, I'll show them that I have a whole host of henchmen under my command!"
