Sixty fist-sized, smooth, black spherical explosive grenades were neatly stacked in two weapon cases. These were delayed-explosive fragmentation grenades that Han Xiao had bought from the Thirteenth Bureau, or "delayed-explosion" for short. From this ridiculous abbreviation, you could tell that the explosive power was not small.
One Aquamarine Dollar 800, sixty cost 48,000... Seems like I'm not mistaken.
The bombs were readily available; Han Xiao simply modified them. Using [Basic Mechanical Engineering], he mounted miniature propellers on the detonation device. Powered by AA batteries, they provided short-term propulsion, allowing them to fly automatically without manual throwing, greatly increasing their attack range.
It's just that the art style is a bit strange. Han Xiao tried it a few times, and every time he thought of a blue Raccoon Cat with a round head, Han Xiao would picture it.
With Simulation Mask, enhanced Wild Eagle dual pistols, Light Power Arm - shock-modified type, Folding Taibo War Blade, Cloud Swallow Glider, Magnetically Controlled Extendable Armor, and sixty delayed explosive rounds, his equipment has been completely upgraded. He also received various miscellaneous items from the Thirteenth Bureau. At his current level, he already has a set of semi-divine gear, allowing him to go all out when in doubt.
"This equipment is sufficient."
Han Xiao crossed out "Personal Equipment Update" from the to-do list; the next item was vehicles.
Building a vehicle from scratch takes too long; it's better to just buy it and modify it.
After much deliberation, Han Xiao decided on the type of vehicle: a heavy-duty truck with a detachable cargo box, which would serve as a mobile warehouse and workshop, and as the team's logistics vehicle.
Han Xiao directly bought a car from the Thirteenth Bureau. Since the car was produced by a military factory, it was bound to be of high quality. He had two options: one was to buy it with money, and the other was to exchange it with goodwill points, which meant having the Thirteenth Bureau allocate the car to him.
After calculating the funds, there were still about 2.8 million left. It had only been a few days, and the Mechanic Class's tendency to spend money like water was gradually becoming apparent. If it weren't for his own ability to make money, he really wouldn't be able to keep up.
If you're not used to the wind blowing through eggshells, and your wealth disappears while you remain at peace, how can you become an excellent mechanic?
Han Xiao chose to exchange favorability points, spending 150 points of the Thirteenth Bureau's faction contribution. If he had spent real money, it would have cost over 800,000 Aquamarine Dollar, making the favorability point exchange more cost-effective. Han Xiao asked Feng Jun to help with the application process.
"Please bring the car to me. How long will it take?"
"I need to pick up the car from the military factory; it should take about two hours."
As it turned out, Feng Jun was a punctual person; he drove a heavy truck over, timing it perfectly with a stopwatch.
So here's the question... Don't worry, there's no way a blue poop excavator will appear here.
Ahem, here's the problem: the truck is too big to fit in the repair shop.
Despite all the careful planning, this one detail was overlooked, which is quite embarrassing.
The two stared at each other, wide-eyed, at the entrance of the alley leading to the repair shop.
What do we do now?
"How about you guys help me expand it again?"
"You're kidding me, the Engineering Department doesn't have that much free time!"
Han Xiao scratched his chin, his eyes lighting up. "Didn't you bring a team to monitor this area? Where's your base?"
"Get your act together, you bastard! Don't you think we're flashy enough already?"
Han Xiao looked at the military heavy truck. It was four meters high and three and a half meters wide, with an enlarged cargo box that he had specially requested, which was eleven meters long and wider than the front of the truck.
"Where's the ostentation? I don't think so," Han Xiao said without batting an eye.
Feng Jun spat directly in Han Xiao's face, "Only a blind person could not see such a big car!"
"Just talk, what's the point of spraying water?" Han Xiao grabbed Feng Jun's sleeve to wipe his face, looking disgusted. "I'm not saying this, but the amount of water you're spraying is a bit much."
Old Man Lü then came out and exclaimed, "Wow, what a big truck!"
Han Xiao's eyes lit up. "How about we just bulldoze the repair shop?"
"Get out of here." Old Man Lü cursed irritably, then stroked his bald spot for a moment, pulled a key from his pocket, and tossed it to Han Xiao.
I have a garage a few blocks away; you can borrow it.
Han Xiao was astonished. "Wow, Old Man Lü, what's gotten into you today?"
"Go away and play somewhere else!" Old Man Lü cursed, shoving aside the two people blocking the alley entrance, and strolled off on his leisurely walk.
Han Xiao drove and arrived at the garage ten minutes later.
"Vomit--"
"Hey, is it really that serious?"
Feng Jun looked pale and emaciated. He clung to the car window, vomiting and waving his hands frantically.
Han Xiao didn't know what Feng Jun meant. Was he saying he would never ride in my car again, or was he telling me not to worry about his feelings?
Han Xiao shook his head, putting this unimportant question out of his mind. After seeing off the unsteady-looking Feng Jun, he began modifying the military heavy truck.
After thoroughly inspecting the heavy truck, no listening devices or cameras were found.
The military factory's products are of reliable quality. The internal structure has ten cylinders, a turbocharger, and other high-horsepower equipment, with a top speed of 135km/h. It has five wheels on each side, all of which are large, thick, anti-slip, and wear-resistant tires. The cargo box is very large and can hold a lot of equipment. Han Xiao plans to convert it into a small workshop and needs to move the equipment from the workshop up here.
The chassis is specially designed for off-road use, with spring suspension and air suspension damping, ensuring stable driving even on rough terrain. It's also equipped with a drill-proof protection device to prevent small vehicles from going under the chassis. Those scenes in movies where the protagonist drives a sports car and crawls under a truck to outwit the villain are impossible... Wait, why do I naturally project myself into the villain's shoes?
The cab is spacious enough to comfortably seat six people. It features a multi-speed transmission with ten gears, offering smooth shifting, and the brakes are in excellent working order.
Han Xiao checked the airbags; there were eight in total. As long as he wasn't thrown out during the crash, he definitely wouldn't be injured, and he could even feel the pleasure of being trapped inside a large chest (just kidding).
Speaking of the crash, the front of the car didn't have a reinforced bumper, so it would need to be assembled manually. Han Xiao then looked at the windshield; it wasn't made with inferior materials and was bulletproof.
Overall, it's pretty standard, nothing that needs major modifications. Han Xiao decided to attach a few nitrous oxide tanks for acceleration. A heavy truck equipped with nitrous oxide—just thinking about it is exhilarating! As long as it doesn't leak, it'll be even more of a road bully than a road hog.
Han Xiao made the modifications.
The cargo compartment was set up as a small workshop. The chassis and front bumper were reinforced, and the thick armor looked very sturdy. Four nitrogen acceleration bottles were installed inside for sprinting when necessary. Han Xiao also bought some extra tires as spares and installed a small radar antenna on the roof to receive radio signals and transmit WiFi.
The total expenses amounted to over 100,000 yuan. Han Xiao shook his head helplessly, thinking that modifying equipment was such a waste of money.
Looking at the pitch-black heavy truck in front of him, Han Xiao scratched his chin and suddenly thought that giving the truck a name was a good idea.
The massive vehicle, the dark exterior, and a very fitting name immediately came to mind.
"Big Black!"
Hmm, that feels good, it makes sense.
