After undergoing mechanized transformation and becoming a gunner, Crassus's strength increased rather than decreased.

The highest combat power level has been directly raised to the Tier Six.

Furthermore, the three core class skills, [Gun and Cannon Mysteries], [Energy Manipulation Mastery], and [Firearms Specialization], are all at level 1.

The difficulty of improving professional skills in the early stages is relatively low. Moreover, Crassus also has a large amount of mechanical knowledge that Logo "imparted" to him. After he digests and absorbs it, his professional skill level will rise rapidly, and his strength will naturally increase accordingly.

In other words, Crassus's combat power will increase significantly in the coming period. Reaching the Tier Seven will be difficult, but reaching the peak of the Tier Six is still something to look forward to.

Logo closed the information panel and looked at Crassus, who was getting used to his new body, and asked, "How are you feeling? Is there anything you're not used to?"

Crassus jumped, feeling the friction between his muscles and mechanical body. It was smooth and natural, and he could even still feel the touch, as if he were born a mechanical being.

"Wow, this feeling is amazing! It's like I've become one with the machine! Boss, how did you do that? I woke up to find myself not only with a mechanical body, but also a gunner, and a whole bunch of unfamiliar memories in my head!"

Logo raised an eyebrow, not answering his question, but instead saying strangely, "Your voice..."

When Crassus spoke just now, his voice was no longer the childish one he used to; it was deep and majestic, exuding maturity Haki.

"Haha, how about it? Isn't it majestic and Haki?" Crassus shook his head, he loved this Tiger Roar Series Sonic Emitter so much. This was the kind of sound he should have now!

Let's see who dares to call me a cat now!

"You really are..." Logo shook his head helplessly. He had gone to great lengths to equip Crassus with a whole host of powerful weapons.

Unexpectedly, the fat cat's favorite thing was actually the Tiger Roar Series Sonic Emitter.

However, it seems that this guy's personality remains unchanged, and he hasn't changed despite having just narrowly escaped death.

Moreover, at least for now, Crassus doesn't feel any discomfort or psychological problems; he remains as lively and cheerful as ever.

In fact, this guy seemed to prefer his current imposing and Haki appearance, standing in front of the smooth metal wall, looking at his reflection in it, and admiring himself.

Hmm... it's also possible that Crassus was deliberately acting this way to make Logo feel better.

After all, most living beings with flesh and blood would certainly prefer their original bodies.

"Use this first. If you find it unsuitable, I'll get you a limb-regenerating potion in the future, but that will take time."

"No need, I think it's fine this way. The only downside is that it can't shrink." Crassus stretched, then his eyes flashed as he asked, "Boss, do you know who attacked us before?"

Logo paused for a moment, then replied, "I'm not sure yet. I've been in the lab for the past two weeks without leaving."

"However, the Snake Gang only has a handful of renowned High-Rank Transcendent gunners, so it's not hard to deduce that..."

As he spoke, Logo opened the laboratory door, and a moment later, Lunbate rushed over.

Upon seeing the mechanical tiger following Logo, Lunbate was taken aback. "This is... Lord Crassus?"

"What's wrong? You don't recognize me after just a few days?" Crassus glanced at Lunbate.

"Not at all, Lord Crassus has changed so much! You are so dashing and Haki now, you'd definitely turn heads wherever you go!"

Lunbate clearly knew how to appease Crassus; after a few words, the latter narrowed his eyes, clearly pleased.

"How's the situation now? The hunting grounds should be over by now, right?" Logo asked as he walked.

"The hunting grounds are over, but a large-scale war has broken out between us and the Snake Gang!" Lunbate said in a deep voice.

"Oh?" Logo paused, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Tell me in detail!"

"That's right. After you were attacked, young master, His Excellency the Earl was furious. He overruled all objections and, together with the Thorn Clan and the White Ape Clan, formed an army of 400,000 to attack the Snake Gang's territory."

"Annabelle and Gain stormed the Snake Gang headquarters together. It's said that Madam Poison was badly beaten. If the Duke hadn't released the old Snake King, Pudong, and the three Legendary hadn't joined forces, they could have barely held them off. Otherwise, Madam Poison would have perished at Lord Annabelle's hands!"

"However, after this battle, the morale of the Snake Gang plummeted. Within half a month, we swept away one-third of their territory. At this point, the four chief stewards intervened, and we were forced to cease hostilities."

"Both sides have now sent high-ranking officials to engage in intense negotiations in Sunset City. Our side is led by the old count, and each of the three major clans has sent two Tier Eight Transcendent."

The Snake Gang's side was led by Poison Bobby Poppy, and their lineup was roughly the same.

According to the latest news, it seems that the other side has already discussed and decided to agree to our conditions, and the war is expected to end soon!

After Lunbate recounted what had happened, Logo let out a heavy sigh, his eyes rippling with emotion.

"Old Earl..."

War kills people, Logo certainly understood that.

Even the warlike Gendaya People remained extremely cautious when faced with large-scale warfare.

This time, however, the three major clans launched a fierce war against the Snake Gang simply because Logo was attacked.

To be honest, it would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.

In fact, due to the influence of memories from Logo past life and the life characteristics of his information body, Logo's sense of identity with the clan was not strong.

He truly cared about only a few people, such as Crassus, Lunbate, and the head maid; in his eyes, the clan was probably more of a tool.

Providing technical formulas to help the clan develop is also for their own benefit and for their future.

However, after this incident, Logo's mindset underwent a subtle change.
