In the apocalyptic world, Lin Qi was still in the restroom, though his clothes had changed from the previous moment.

Arriving at the experimental workshop, Lin Qi took off his Cyber World attire and put on clothes printed with "Magic University Robot Combat."

Xia Chu, who was fiddling with the 3D printing equipment as Lin Qi had instructed, didn't notice Lin Qi's movements.

After changing, Lin Qi walked over to a computer, took out his hand-drawn draft, used the Collecting Robot to convert the format, and finally imported the blueprint into a USB drive.

Lin Qi had already completed the manufacturing of most core components. The subsequent production wouldn't require his excessive involvement; the Collecting Robot would handle the majority of the work.

Lin Qi only needed to perform the final assembly.

What Lin Qi needed to do now was to craft weapons for the mecha.

"Xia Chu, help me with something," Lin Qi called out to Xia Chu.

"What is it?" Xia Chu reacted with extreme speed, almost as soon as Lin Qi spoke.

"I might need your extraordinary power next," Lin Qi proposed.

If his judgment was correct, Xia Chu's extraordinary power could condense water into ice and manipulate the ice.

Under the influence of her extraordinary power, thermodynamics was completely defied, with heat seemingly dissipating out of thin air.

"My extraordinary power?" Xia Chu seemed a bit confused.

She had possessed extraordinary power for less than twenty-four hours, only subconsciously using it at the moment she acquired it.

Xia Chu didn't even know how to actively use it.

Lin Qi was prepared. As a Wizard, he had extensive experience in controlling extraordinary power.

He first took a steel plate and heated it with a laser.

"Try to see if you can cool it down directly."

Lin Qi wanted to see if Xia Chu's extraordinary power's characteristics were entirely dependent on water.

If she could directly control the temperature of objects without water, then the upper limit of this extraordinary power would be terrifying.

Manipulating water and manipulating entropy were entirely different concepts.

Xia Chu looked at the red-hot steel plate, feeling a bit lost.

Lin Qi added an explanation: "Concentrate your spirit on the spot where you want to apply your extraordinary power. Feel as if water is gathering. That is your spiritual power, the source of your extraordinary power..."

Xia Chu's extraordinary power manifested similarly to a Wizard's, only the Wizard's abilities were more diverse.

In comparison, those who awakened extraordinary powers independently, like Xia Chu, had a higher ceiling for their single ability, which could almost increase with their extraordinary level.

However, the upper limit of the power controlled by a Wizard would be bound by the level of the Extraordinary Item they analyzed.

Which was superior, Lin Qi, as a Rank 1 Wizard, couldn't judge for the time being.

As Xia Chu concentrated her will, Lin Qi discovered through Psychic Vision that the temperature of the steel plate didn't change. Instead, the water vapor around the steel plate began to gather and condense, slowly forming ice crystals.

Then, the ice crystals fell onto the steel plate, evaporating a large amount of water vapor.

The water vapor condensed back into water, then into ice, and finally evaporated again, repeating the cycle.

It seemed Xia Chu's extraordinary power was still reliant on water. Although she could control the temperature changes of water, it wasn't direct control over entropy.

"You can stop now. I roughly understand."

Having confirmed the form of Xia Chu's extraordinary power, Lin Qi also clarified his weapon design ideas.

If the material's heat dissipation was poor, liquid cooling would be added.

Hollow steel would be used, filled with water internally. The heat dissipation would directly rely on Xia Chu's control over the water temperature.

The heat would be absorbed by the water, then interfered with by extraordinary power, carrying the heat away out of thin air.

This design concept completely defied thermodynamics. If weapons in Cyber World were designed this way, it would inevitably lead to catastrophic failure.

But Lin Qi, as an L-level researcher and extraordinary professional, designed weapons based on the situation, unconstrained by traditional theories.

With a clear direction, Lin Qi's actions became much faster.

In just over half a day, an M-level mecha lay flat in the experimental workshop. Electromagnetic multi-barrel gun turrets were installed on both sides of the mecha, a magazine was placed on its back, and the magazine was even equipped with a directional electromagnetic recovery system.

Finally, next to the mecha, a Chainsaw Sword approximately 4 meters long, crafted from Tungsten Steel Alloy, lay on the ground.

The mecha was equipped with two micro-fusion reactors, and the Chainsaw Sword had one installed internally.

The remaining energy, at full power, could sustain combat for about thirty hours.

The endurance wasn't long, but it was enough for Lin Qi to go to Greenland City in Cyber World and procure a new energy supply.

Lin Qi held a Crimson Crystal under his tongue. This was the 11th he had absorbed. Before returning to Cyber World, he would be able to absorb the 12th, pushing his physical fitness to the Rank 1 extraordinary level.

"It's already finished?"

Beside Lin Qi, Xia Chu felt as if she were dreaming.

Was this the technical capability Lin Qi should possess?

Was this still the Lin Qi who couldn't even win a national competition?

Could Lin Qi's extraordinary power lie in enhanced intelligence?

Xia Chu's mind began to wander again.

"Get in the cockpit, let's go meet up with the rescue team."

Lin Qi walked towards the mech first, opening the cockpit.

This was a two-person cockpit, not because operating the mech required two people, but because Lin Qi wanted to clear a seat for Xia Chu.

Furthermore, cooling the weapon systems would also require Xia Chu's help.

Xia Chu was still frozen in place, not moving, but the Collecting Robot was the first to take its position, entering the cockpit.

Before entering, it specifically placed the packed Crimson Crystal into a storage unit.

Of all the mech's parts, the Collecting Robot was the key.

The Collecting Robot's chip was responsible for serving as the computational core.

Lin Qi was already settled in the cockpit, continuing to call out to Xia Chu. Only then did Xia Chu hurriedly get in.

The cockpit canopy closed, and the screens surrounding the cockpit lit up, displaying the environment.

The screens were sourced from various monitors throughout the building, with varying picture quality and frame rates. They looked somewhat crude from the inside, but were barely usable.

Lin Qi needed to rely on the display screens to control the mech. As for Xia Chu, a panel appeared before her, showing the weapon system temperature.

Lin Qi had already briefly practiced weapon system cooling with Xia Chu.

With Xia Chu's current mental strength, she could probably complete four rounds of cooling.

One round of cooling was enough for two minutes of sustained fire.

The efficiency wasn't high, but it was sufficient.

The ammunition in the magazine could only support a total of 6 rounds of sustained fire.

In the experimental workshop, the medium-sized M-level mech slowly flipped over, reaching out to grab its dedicated weapon, the Chainsaw Sword.

Then, it began to crawl forward.

The ceiling height was insufficient, so the mech couldn't stand up. It could only slowly move towards the window.

The Chainsaw Sword activated, its Tungsten Steel Alloy smoothly cutting through the window and wall, attracting the attention of a large number of Zombies below.

Boom.

The sound of a heavy object landing could be heard for hundreds of meters.

The M-level mech from the Cyber World made its debut in the doomsday world for the first time.

In the distance, in the student dormitory area.

Some survivors heard the commotion and looked towards the location from afar.

"Holy crap, the Mechanical Engineering department has produced a god!"
