Chapter 75: Chapter 71 Electric SurgeThe night was silent, and snowflakes fluttered. On the flatbed trailer of the "Infinity" train, Lin Xian was sitting in the dump truck’s bed, devouring the hoisted capacitor assembly. [Devouring Progress 15%] [Devouring Progress 60%] ... The 110KV capacitor assembly was extremely massive and intricately constructed. Lin Xian’s level 3 Mechanical Devouring Skill took nearly four hours to finally complete the devouring. As the progress bar reached 100%, a flash of purple light suddenly burst in front of Lin Xian’s eyes. [Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +150, Mechanical Devouring Skill proficiency +60, additional rewards: Strength +5, Speed +10, you have obtained the Electric Surge Skill!] [Electric Surge (Rare): Accumulate a certain voltage to release electrical energy!] [Decomposition: Metalized Polypropylene*100, Liquid Dielectric*50, Aluminum Foil*30, Ceramic Pieces*50, Polycarbonate Film, Polytetrafluoroethylene...] "Electric Surge... a rare skill?!" Lin Xian’s eyes flashed, and he raised his palm, secretly activating it. A light blue light began to gather continuously in the center of his palm, and the energy gradually increased, accompanied by a burning sensation. He then raised his palm towards the dump truck’s side panel. Whiz~zz! A dazzling electric arc burst forth, glowing brightly, and instantly burned a tiny hole through the steel side panel of the dump truck. The steel around the hole was still slightly red-hot, emitting heat! "Creating electricity out of thin air... it matches well with my Mechanical Heart, as it’s equivalently creating some electrical energy directly." "Phew~" Lin Xian blew on his heated palm, frowning slightly, "It just requires some time to build up power, and there is also a limit; otherwise, my body can’t really handle it." Meanwhile, his other attributes were also enhanced. [Congratulations, your Speed attribute has increased to Level 2, achieving a maximum of 13m/s] "Amazing..." At this moment, Lin Xian stood up with a look of astonishment. He didn’t just feel the explosive speed of his limbs changing; more importantly, his vision, perception, reaction, and coordination had all become considerably clearer. He blinked, perceiving the blurred surroundings rapidly becoming clear. He looked into the distance, as it seemed his night vision ability had also significantly improved. "So speed isn’t just about moving!" Lin Xian realized, overjoyed. With such speed and reaction, he had already surpassed the limits of Blue Star’s humans. Although he hadn’t reached the monster level yet, if he mainly focused on mechanical manufacturing, then later the strength attributes’ benefits would be smaller for him. And speed, greatly enhancing perception and reaction, would improve his survival space, which was truly beneficial for him! Sёarch* The nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Just in time, let’s create this thing." Lin Xian took out the incomplete GK03 electric knife. Following the blueprint, he began to manufacture a high energy capacitor, an arc release device, and a high-frequency generator. Before long, a complete GK03 electric knife was crafted by him. Normally, this device has a charging mode and a one-time electrical energy module, but for Lin Xian, it turned out to be unnecessary. He held it in his hand, directly using the Electric Surge Skill to charge the high-energy capacitor. Then he switched it on, and a slight electric sound emanated from the silver blade, which also started to glow. Upon closer inspection, tiny electric arcs flickered. "Good stuff..." Lin Xian’s face lit up with fervor. This weapon was absolutely divine for close combat self-defense. Clack~ After admiring it for a moment, he turned off the power and carefully sheathed the electric knife, checked the time, and then began to devour the dump truck and other electrical appliances Sha Sha and her team had brought back, to pass the time. The main reason for choosing to act before dawn was mainly considering the risk. Inside the carriage, Building Shasha and Sha Sha were loading bullets into guns, preparing spare magazines. Chen Sixuan was also helping to learn on the side. Everyone felt as if a formidable enemy was imminent. Lin Xian jumped off the train, starting to devour the dump truck and those electrical appliances. ... "Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +13, Mechanical Devouring Skill proficiency +5, additional reward: Strength +2" The dump truck took over 20 minutes, and the basic yield was similar to that of a truck, but with slightly fewer materials. "Decomposition: Obtained High Manganese Steel*10, Hot Rolled Forging Steel*10, Cold Rolled Duplex Steel Plate*5, ordinary carbon steel*20, Non-metallic foam materials, Non-metallic composite materials..." "Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +2, Mechanical Devouring Skill proficiency +1" "Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +1, Mechanical Devouring Skill proficiency +1" "Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +3, Mechanical Devouring Skill proficiency +1, additional reward: Speed +1" "Decomposition: Obtained glass, plastic, iron, aluminum, copper, semiconductor components, crystal triodes, diodes, Field Effect Transistors, integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, inductors, circuit boards, Non-metallic foam materials, Non-metallic composite materials..." These electronics were devoured as easily as small snacks, with quick speed but minor rewards; the only benefit being the acquisition of diverse materials. This facilitated the subsequent crafting of water purifiers, air circulation, communications equipment and more. "Current Level of Mechanical Heart LV.2 (715/1000)" "Tip: Upgrading the Mechanical Heart can yield special skill rewards, and reaching levels LV3, LV6, LV9 of the Mechanical Heart can attain Mysterious Awakening" Strength level: 2[80%](Burst 200kg class) Speed level: 2[05%](Maximum limit 13m/s) Defense level: 1[78%](Tough and resilient) "Mechanical Awakening": Unawakened Mechanical Devouring: 3 (106/1000) Increase devouring efficiency Mechanical Manufacturing: 2 (130/500) Increase construction efficiency Mechanical Passive: Scan/Repair/Decomposition "Special Skills" Wind Cannon (Ordinary) (Level 2 86%) Ice Shield (Ordinary) (Level 1 69%) Backflash (Rare) (Level 1 30%) Electric Surge (Rare) (Level 1 2%) "Almost there, devouring a large locomotive should directly take me to level 3." Lin Xian looked at the display screen in front of him, his expression filled with anticipation. Mechanical Awakening, he was greatly looking forward to this. However, a fully intact locomotive, which could provide him with more than 10 hours of continual devouring, posed a real challenge. If he were to stick with cars, at the current devouring rate, he would need at least 20 more dump trucks, which was also not an easy feat. Moreover, if he upgraded to a level 3 Mechanical Heart, cars would yield fewer Mechanical Source Points, and he’d have to focus on more powerful and intricate large-scale machinery. Ding Ding~ The reminder alarm Lin Xian set went off, marking it 2:00 PM; the sky was still engulfed in darkness. Upon devouring again, the flatbed trailer was emptied. This was a good thing; it reduced the burden and enhanced his capabilities. Woosh~ Lin Xian opened the tailgate of car No. 5, where Building Shasha had completed her preparations. "Are we moving out?" Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian as he entered, promptly quizzing. "Yes." Lin Xian instructed Chen Sixuan to wait in the cockpit, ready with a gun for support at all times, whereas Sha Sha was tasked with heavy artillery to guard around the train should Lin Xian and Building return; she needed to provide fire support. Meanwhile, Lin Xian and Building were responsible for driving into Yuchi City, to seek the eerie!
