After Mukai and Konan returned to the Oasis Workshop, the camp became much quieter.
Most of the villagers, exhausted from a day's work, have begun to rest.
The two did not disturb the rest of the others.
Just as she was passing through the barrier, preparing to sneak into the underground puppet workshop, Pakura pulled her directly into his arms.
Ninja Art - Poison Dragon Drill Technique!
Mukai current Bioelectric Sensing has been handed over to the intelligent Komushi.
This ensures that perception capabilities are maintained at all times, eliminating any blind spots in perception.
So he had already discovered that Pakura was here.
You messed up with your teacher, so it's okay to let her vent a little!
Pakura had already lain down, but when she sensed someone entering the barrier, she came over to tidy up Mukai.
She pulled Mukai close to her chest, her hands supporting her head as she said fiercely:
"You brat! You actually tried to trick me into doing your work!"
They even had the audacity to call it helping me train my Ninjutsu!
ah..."
Konan was already used to it. She covered her mouth and ran back to her room, leaving Mukai to experience both pain and pleasure here.
Mukai knew he couldn't hide it for long, so he took advantage of the gap in the Poison Dragon Drill and unleashed his ultimate move:
"A complete upgraded White Phoenix Mecha!"
Strengthen defensive and offensive capabilities.
It has intelligent computing nodes and can fly briefly!
"Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you."
Pakura got what he wanted and then released Mukai.
She crossed her arms and gestured with her chin towards Mukai:
" Mukai Chunin, you said it yourself!"
If you dare to renege on your debt, watch out, your teacher will teach you a lesson!
Mukai rubbed his head and reached out to make a pinky promise with Pakura:
"Don't worry, when have I ever renege on a debt?"
This childish agreement finalized the upgrade plan for the mecha.
Mukai gazed longingly at Pakura's beautiful back, silently lamenting the limitations of mecha.
He can't leave such an obvious flaw just for the sake of looking good.
Construction of the fortress has begun, and the improvement of his mechs cannot be neglected.
Back in the still-lit workshop, watching Scorpion engrossed in his work among piles of parts, Mukai knocked on the wall and said:
"Hey, you perpetual motion machine scorpion, aren't you afraid of dying from overexertion at this rate?!"
The scorpion with a monocular magnifying glass over its eyes didn't even raise its head to retort:
" Mukai, you're so lazy, your skills are going to fall behind!"
Mukai took the magnifying glass off Scorpion and led him directly to the power storage room next to the workshop.
What are you doing here?
Scorpion didn't understand why Mukai had brought him here.
Looking at the supercapacitor charging in the cabinet,
Mukai unsealed the scroll and took out a large cabinet inlaid with a Soul Crystal the size of a fist.
The large Soul Crystal on this cabinet was also engraved with dense sealing patterns.
Unlike the previous computing nodes, the structure inside this large Soul Crystal is much more complex.
Mukai directly connected two insulated, room-temperature superconducting Chakra Metal wires to the electrical distribution cabinet on the wall.
As the current was input, the large Soul Crystal and all the nodes in the cabinet lit up.
" Mukai, what is this cabinet?"
Scorpion was somewhat puzzled by the cabinet in front of him, which clearly used a lot of materials, and asked in confusion.
Mukai pointed to his head and explained:
"This cabinet is part of the intelligent node in my consciousness."
With this collection of computing nodes, it will become the most powerful brain of our fortress in the future.
Many design and calculation tasks can be entrusted to it in the future.
Of course, it's still a bit dim-witted right now, only able to perform pre-programmed tasks like Crow puppet.
However, with the synchronous learning of computation, this collection of intelligent computing nodes...
It will become increasingly intelligent, until it surpasses our own wisdom!
Scorpion looked at the unremarkable cabinet.
Aside from the large Soul Stone and individual nodes, which look nice, there's nothing particularly special about them.
Mukai communicated directly using language:
" Fortress Core, activate!"
As a series of nodes flashed rapidly, a cold, mechanical voice emanated from the cabinet:
Hello, Mukai, hello Scorpion.
The Fortress Core is always at your service.
Mukai entered a list into the cabinet and then said:
"Your task is to create a table showing the bioelectrical correspondences of all personnel entering and leaving the fortress based on the differences in bioelectricity."
I have already given you control over the surrounding sensory barrier through the intelligent Komushi.
"Once the fortress's defenses are fully established, I'll hand it over to you to take over."
" The Fortress Core understands."
With a rapid depletion of power, the Fortress Core quickly responded:
"Bioelectric scanning complete. A total of 773 living beings and three locations containing semi-living beings have been detected throughout the camp."
"A half-life form?"
With Mukai Xiang switched directly to mind communication.
After obtaining the location, Mukai whispered a few words to Scorpion, and the two Body Flicker Technique left the workshop.
Aside from White Zetsu, Mukai couldn't imagine any other half-life form that would appear at the fortress.
Arriving at the temporary dormitory next to the foundation excavation site, Mukai gave Scorpion a look.
The two immediately activated the scrolls and donned their respective mechs.
"Scorpion, you stay behind and prevent the enemy from escaping."
I'll catch these guys.
According to the Fortress Core monitoring, all three and a half life forms are in this simple house in front of us.
Who is it?
The sound of Mukai and the Scorpion mech appearing startled the villagers who were still awake inside.
Mukai, wearing the Hierarch Mecha, bent down and walked into the makeshift house.
"It's me, Mukai."
Seeing the cool Hierarch Mecha, everyone in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This striking figure was recognized by everyone working on the fortress construction site.
"So it's Lord Mukai. Is there something you need?"
Mukai extended one of his mecha arms and said in a lewd tone:
"Nothing's wrong, are you all hidden? I'm coming!"
It only hurts a little!
Before he could finish speaking, Mukai's mecha hands suddenly crackled with electricity.
Arcs of electricity shot out from his hands, connecting him to more than a dozen people inside the room.
Then screams and several strange noises rang out.
The screams also alerted the people in the nearby temporary accommodations.
Nagato and Yahiko lived nearby, and they rushed over in a Body Flicker Technique:
"What's going on? Are there enemies?"
When they saw that it was Scorpion's Mountain God Mecha guarding outside, Mukai, wearing the Hierarch Mecha, was standing inside the house.
Before he could ask, Mukai dragged out three corpses, white with a greenish tinge, dressed in ordinary villagers' clothes.
"Hey, Yahiko and Nagato, sorry to have disturbed your rest!"
After Mukai threw the three half-burnt corpses onto the ground, Yahiko went to check on the others in the room, still feeling uneasy.
Seeing that the other villagers in the house were only paralyzed and frightened, and not injured,
Only then did he feel relieved enough to push the body out and examine the three charred corpses on the ground.
Upon closer inspection, he then noticed the difference in the corpse.
These corpses were unusually pale, with a faint greenish glow.
The human face was now contorted with an abnormal expression.
What flowed from the corners of their mouths and their charred bodies was not blood, but a dark green liquid!
