A name?
"How about Villain?"
The pure-white mechanical soldier was given the name Villain.
Its mechanical drive sent out waves of sound.
Ye Qiyan reached out, pressed its metal shell, and snapped his fingers.
Electricity from the Void Electric Furnace was delivered into Villain's core out of thin air.
However, perhaps because the Void Electric Furnace had too many electrical facilities to sustain, a single recharge actually failed to fill it.
"I should get some new charging facilities. No idea whether future upgrade options will give me something like the electric furnace again, though the upgrade options are all random. Hmm... I'd better check the Black Market."
Having made up his mind, Ye Qiyan temporarily cut off part of the power supply. After fully charging Villain, he extended his hand and curled his fingers around empty air, opening the Armed Space.
A patch of nothingness appeared beneath it.
As though sinking underwater, Villain entered the Armed Space.
"It works, just as I thought. Makes sense. Even Hunt counts as a kind of armament, so there's no reason this wouldn't."
"A shame it's missing a cockpit. Hmm... I'll find a way to get one later."
He could control Villain however he pleased.
It just wasn't the same as climbing into a cockpit to pilot a Mecha, like in the stories he had seen before.
"All done, all done~"
Ye Qiyan snapped his fingers.
Pride, which had been circling beside him all this time, returned to the Void Card Storage.
Ye Qiyan had intended to leave directly and return to the Wasteland.
But just then...
"Um, is... is that you, bro?!"
A call brought him to a halt.
He looked toward the voice.
There was Russell, missing an arm and his right eye, wrapped in bandages and waving tentatively at him.
Russell?
