Chapter 130

"It's just a small application of spatial technology; you wouldn't understand even if I explained it. You only need to know that I've thrown both the extra items I packed and the reduced weight into the internal space of the microphone," Lin Qi explained.

"Is it that magical?"

Robin was somewhat surprised.

Previously, she only knew that as a genius, Lin Qi must be very impressive.

But when others told her about Lin Qi's curios, she had never seen them, and secondly, she felt they were too distant—things like destroying star systems at every turn were just too terrifying.

So, she had no real sense of it.

Now, however, she had experienced it firsthand.

The only question was, what exactly had been added?

"Very curious, right? But just talking about it is useless. Why don't you try it out yourself? It's right there in the testing room ahead."

Lin Qi pointed in a direction and led Robin over.

Inside, there were all kinds of machines: some were heavy-duty individual mechs, others were floating cannons, and so on.

Obviously.

These were all used for testing.

"Then how should I test it? Or rather, how do I use the functions you added?"

Standing in the testing field, Robin was still completely bewildered.

Because until now, Lin Qi still hadn't told her what exactly he had modified, nor had he told her the effects of the modifications.

How was she supposed to test this?

Just leave it to fate?

"Just do as you usually do—sing as normal and use the power of Harmony. Leave the rest to the microphone; it will solve it itself," Lin Qi said.

"Alright."

Robin began, half-doubting.

It must be said that she sang truly well; even in this state, starting without any preparation, it was still incredibly pleasant to hear.

But the next moment, a sudden sound abruptly caused this harmonious music to produce a clear dissonance.

Bang!

This was a gunshot!

It came from the laboratory's kinetic energy testing robot.

In that instant, Robin's voice stopped abruptly; she couldn't even tell if the bullet was faster or if her thoughts were faster.

Regardless, before the muzzle flash appeared and the sound had yet to ring out, a thought surged into her brain.

Why does the Doctor want to kill me? Is my singing that terrible?

But soon.

This thought ended.

Because the rapidly incoming bullet collided with an invisible barrier.

Then, without any suspense, it turned into dust.

It didn't even ricochet.

Robin's beautiful eyes showed a brief moment of shock, then quickly recovered.

Then the music continued to play.

Hmm...

It sounded even better than before.

Following that, it wasn't just one bullet, but an overwhelming barrage, like a rain of bullets, along with various energy beams and even large-scale weapons of mass destruction.

Even though Robin wasn't very clear on military matters, she knew this firepower was enough to fight a small-scale engagement.

And now, they were all aimed directly at Robin!

Of course.

The result remained the same: not a single one slipped through, all blocked by the invisible barrier.

Inside and outside the barrier were like two different worlds—one heaven, one hell.

Not until the smoke and dust outside the barrier dissipated did Robin understand what kind of attack she had endured.

So much so that she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Outside the laboratory.

Seeing her unresponsive, Lin Qi laughed, "Are you shocked? Don't be shocked yet; this is nothing. If it weren't for the fact that the interior of the spaceship can't withstand weapons with too much destructive power, there would be even stronger ones! The attack you just endured doesn't even reach one percent of the Absolute Field's limit!"

"What's wrong? Do you want to test it again? I didn't expect you to have this hobby."

"Doctor!"

Robin suddenly spoke, though her tone was somewhat trembling.

"My legs are weak... I can't walk."

"..."

Lin Qi was silent for a second.

Only then did he remember Sunday's instructions; he really couldn't hit little sister Robin too hard.

Hmm, physical blows wouldn't do either.

But for now, he had to rescue Robin first.

With a thought from Lin Qi, a rescue robot quickly arrived at the scene.

No extra testing was needed; just a quick scan revealed Robin's state.

She wasn't injured, just a bit shaken.

"Doctor, I haven't told you about my childhood, have I?" After Robin recovered, she briefly recounted her past.

Only then did Lin Qi learn that she and Sunday were actually orphans, their homeland and family destroyed by the Stellaron disaster.

So, after the singing ended and she stopped channeling the power of the Path, seeing the bullets and fragments all over the ground, she felt a bit sentimental and thought of the past.

That was why she couldn't move, not because she was truly frightened.

Regarding this.

Lin Qi felt a little guilty.

Had he known it would be like this, he would have informed her in advance so Robin could have been mentally prepared.

Fortunately, Robin recovered quickly, or rather, her mental fortitude was actually quite good.

Robin even turned around to comfort Lin Qi.

"It's alright, Doctor, you don't need to blame yourself; it's all my fault for not telling you."

"Alright, although you don't blame me, it is indeed my responsibility. But don't worry, the next test won't have such accidents. Furthermore, what we're testing is no longer defensive performance, but counter-measures."

Lin Qi had the robot quickly clear the scene, and before long, the launch site turned into a shooting range.

Then Lin Qi explained.

"I don't know if you noticed, but there's a small mechanism on the inside of the microphone. As long as you press it, you can sense that there are things inside and use the power of the Path to call upon them. And then, like this..."

Bang!

Before Lin Qi finished speaking, a blue electric ball shot out from the microphone, blasting the target in the distance to smithereens.

"Ah? Doctor! Is this still a microphone?" Robin was somewhat torn between laughter and tears.

But what surprised her even more was yet to come.

"There's another button on the outside; similarly, after pressing it, use the power of the Path to activate it. Then the microphone can change its form."

Lin Qi had just finished speaking.

The microphone underwent a series of changes, and in the blink of an eye, it actually transformed from a long-handled microphone into a... hammer?

Robin's beautiful brows furrowed together.

She shook her head repeatedly, indicating she couldn't accept it.

"No, no, this really won't do."

"Why? I haven't even introduced its function to you yet. After switching to melee mode, you can use it to move rapidly and deal massive damage..."

"It's too ugly! Doctor, do you not understand girls at all? What girl uses a hammer as a weapon?" Robin indicated that she would not accept it no matter what.

Besides, having a long-range attack mode was already enough.

Regarding this.

Lin Qi expressed regret.

It was clearly a classic hammer-plus-cannon mode.
