Chapter 138 Kill the troubleshooter, reap rewards, and extract information

[The mechanical rescuers will arrive in 10 minutes, please stay away quickly! 】

Along with this system prompt, there was a rumbling sound in the passage directly ahead, rapid and heavy, like a giant moving rapidly.

"Adaptive Type A Mechanical Danger..."

Lu Cheng's mind turned and he looked forward.

If nothing else, this will be the first BOSS he encounters in the ruins.

Metal Flower Spirits can extract a lot of information from these ordinary monsters.

If you can extract the BOSS, you should get more information!

I just don’t know what the upper limit of the Metal Flower Spirit’s ability is and whether it can extract this BOSS.

With this in mind, Lu Cheng stepped into the passage ahead.

The source energy crystal core is located directly in front, and the direction in which the mechanical rescuer is coming coincides with the advance route he envisioned.

As he moved forward, the rumble got closer.

Not long after, a mechanical giant appeared in the field of vision, it was the mechanical troubleshooter.

This mechanical rescuer is seven or eight meters tall, with his head almost touching the ceiling of the passage. The metal body is very thick and full of weapons.

…

【Adaptive Type A Mechanical Danger】

[Bronze Level BOSS]

[Level: Level 52]

[HP: 7.02 million/7.02 million]

【Skill:? characteristic:? 】

…

Looking over, Lu Cheng raised his eyes.

Bronze-level BOSS, placed in the outside world, must at least appear among small and medium-sized monster forces.

But in the ruins, it is just a small BOSS, nothing.

However... the information it can provide is much more than ordinary monsters!

As his mind turned, Lu Cheng's staff was raised to strike first.

"boom……"

Fire burst out, and thirty-five flints flew out with a roar.

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

All the flints hit, and nearly half of the mechanical rescuer's HP was lost!

Glancing at the damage, Lu Cheng was very satisfied.

Now, the damage increase provided by his endless absorption is more than 110,000. Coupled with the increase of magic attack and fire attribute energy, even without the source of energy embrace, the damage of a meteor shower can be around 5 million.

The upper limit of the health of the mechanical troubleshooter is only 7 million, which is completely insufficient!

Lu Cheng raised his staff and pursued the victory.

As soon as the fireball fell, the mechanical rescuer's blood volume suddenly dropped again.

On the opposite side, the mechanical troubleshooter also took action!

I saw that the mechanical rescuer raised his arms, and two machine guns popped out of his forearms!

"Da da da……"

At the same time as the machine gun fired, a red light appeared in the mechanical rescuer's eyes, his chest opened, and two small rockets shot out from it, dragging thick smoke and hitting Lu Cheng!

After firing the rocket, the opening in its chest was not closed. A huge barrel protruded from it, flashing with laser light!

Looking at this scene, Lu Cheng's eyes narrowed.

This fighting method is exactly the same as that of the previous mechanical explorers. They all use all attack methods directly from the beginning, striving to kill them in one wave.

As for the threat...it's not that big.

As his thoughts turned, magic power surged around Lu Cheng and flickered out.

"Boom, boom..."

The lasers and rockets landed at his original position and set off shock waves, all of which were blocked by the energy barrier.

After neutralizing the offensive of the mechanical troubleshooters, Lu Cheng raised his staff again.

Fireball, Ice Arrow, Wind Blade...

Small skills were launched one after another, and the health of the mechanical troubleshooter plummeted, and it soon bottomed out.

"Bang!"

-

140152!

As the last fireball fell, the mechanical rescuer's health bar was emptied and the action came to an abrupt end.

At the same time, a system prompt rang in Lu Cheng's ears.

[Ding, you killed the Bronze-level BOSS: Adaptive Type A Mechanical Danger Remover, gained +5.99 million experience points, and gained +9 source energy limit! 】

[You killed the Silver BOSS of the same level or above by yourself, and gained free attribute points +156! 】

[You have gained 52 reputation points! 】

"boom……"

The mechanical rescuer's body was swayed by electric currents, and he collapsed to the ground after more than ten seconds.

Lu Cheng was satisfied with killing the mechanical troubleshooter.

Now, facing a Bronze BOSS of level three or below, you can easily defeat it even without the Embrace of Source Energy.

"I'm going to try and see if I can extract the information!"

On his shoulder, the metal flower spirit flapped its wings.

"Go ahead."

Lu Cheng responded, and then stepped forward himself.

BOSS in the ruins are often one or two levels better than external BOSS in terms of drop rewards.

Now, let’s see what this mechanical troubleshooter can deliver!

Thinking in his heart, Lu Cheng cast his gaze.

I saw a bronze treasure box shining brightly next to the corpse of the mechanical rescuer!

"good!"

At one glance, Lu Cheng felt happy.

If it were a treasure chest, then the reward would be silver-level!

Immediately, he put his hand on the treasure box and thought about opening the lucky sign.

As the lucky sign turns on, the ghost of the clock appears, and the second hand ticks.

When the second hand reached 15 seconds, Lu Cheng raised his hand and opened the treasure box.

Suddenly, a flash of silver light filled his vision, and the system prompt also sounded.

[Ding, you open the bronze treasure box and get the portal blueprint! 】

…

[Architectural Drawings: Portal]

[The construction drawings of the teleportation array, after being assembled into the settlement, you can build a building: the teleportation array. 】

[Materials required: Level 1 wood x200, Level 1 stone x200, Source Stone fragments x10000, Source Stone x1. 】

[Effective range: No more than 100 kilometers away from the main portal. 】

[Reminder: At least 2 portals need to exist to take effect. After the main portal is constructed, secondary portals can be built in other areas. 】

…

"Portal?"

After seeing the attributes clearly, Lu Cheng was pleasantly surprised.

This is one of the most practical buildings of the city era.

The key is, he needs it right now!

With this in mind, he glanced at the settlement panel.

The various requirements for the city mission are progressing very quickly.

The biggest gap lies in population.

Now, the population of the settlement is still less than 10,000, and it will take a long time just to search for survivors.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng's heart moved slightly.

To increase the population, the most efficient way is undoubtedly to merge other settlements.

But this approach is not so easy to achieve.

First, Daxia is a vast territory, and without information support, it is not easy to find other settlements.

The second reason is that monster fields are often formed in areas far away from settlements.

The monster field is similar to the monster territory, both cover the surrounding area.

The difference is that as long as you step into the monster field, you will receive negative effects.

There are many kinds of negative effects, some are reducing attributes, some are continuously losing blood, and there are many more.

This is where the problem lies.

His is probably the only settlement in the county where he lives.

To go to other settlements, the journey is long and you must pass through monster fields.

With his current combat power, he is not afraid of negative effects.

But if you have to carry thousands of people through it, that's another matter. If you encounter a field that deducts blood every second, the group will be destroyed.

But with this portal, it’s different!

Now, as long as he can find another settlement, he can build a portal and transfer directly around the monster field!

It seems that meeting the population requirements is just around the corner!

Thinking about it in his mind, Lu Cheng was very satisfied.

Concentrating the population into settlement No. 1024 will not only preserve the manpower to the maximum extent, but also provide him with a lot of feedback!

But just as he was thinking about it, he heard an exclamation from beside him!

Lu Cheng turned around and saw a flash of lightning!

"Woo!"

The metal flower spirit screamed in pain, lightning flashed from its body, and it was burnt black all over.

Above her head, damage numbers kept popping up!

-

50,-50,-50…

In the blink of an eye, the metal flower spirit's health was only over 500, and it was still declining, with no sign of stopping!
