Chapter 130

~6 min read 1,146 words

In the underground first floor of the pyramid, aside from this hall and the 16 rooms on the left and right.

On the wall opposite the elevator exit, there is another door identical to the entrance gate, also made of silver alloy.

Moreover, this gate is even taller, standing thirty to forty meters high, and also appears much heavier.

Even Su Hao lacks great confidence to break it open by brute force in a short time.

However……

Spending more time, forcibly smashing open this gate is not a big problem.

"Anyway, there are no enemies left, so we can just grind away slowly—it's just a shame about such a fine gate."

Su Hao sighed helplessly, lightly stroking the surface of the silver gate, his eyes showing some reluctance.

Such a sturdy gate, if placed before a shelter, could successfully block even the attacks of a Supernatural Second Rank.

Now, to enter, we can only destroy it, which is truly wasteful.

Click—! Click—! At that moment, a gear‑turning sound suddenly came from inside the huge silver gate.

The next moment.

This silver gate, which could remain unscathed even under prolonged fierce attacks by a Supernatural Second Rank, actually began to slowly open outward on both sides.

"It seems that blue projection is quite concerned about the permission token inside."

Regarding this, Su Hao felt somewhat surprised, but upon reflection, he thought this situation was actually reasonable.

If it weren't for that blue projection actively opening this silver gate to let testers enter and obtain the permission token more quickly,

How could a gate that requires some kind of permission to enter open automatically on its own?

Surely it's not that the silver gate finds Su Hao pleasing to the eye and thus voluntarily lets him in.

Su Hao chuckled lightly, leading his followers as he strode inside.

After passing through that white‑shadow gate, Su Hao entered a corridor about two hundred meters long.

This corridor is similar to the one at the intersection, with all sides made of a special silver alloy,

and it contains just as many traps, even more numerous than those in the entrance corridor.

Over this short distance of roughly two hundred meters, Su Hao encountered six different kinds of traps.

Three of those traps fire a powerful energy beam from the floor or ceiling without any warning.

Su Hao and Da Xiong Mao react quickly, able to respond in advance, covering their groins with both hands to protect vital areas.

Skeleton Warriors are not so fortunate; once hit by such a mechanism trap, even if their soul fire is not extinguished, they lose combat ability due to missing leg or arm bones.

Fortunately, Su Hao, as a precaution, added energy mechanical shields to the heads of the Leaf Pumpkin Head and Violent Devil Ox, thus inflicting no effective harm on them.

A passage over two hundred meters long cost Su Hao about a hundred skeleton warriors; this pyramid is certainly no place for an ordinary Supernatural Second Rank to enter.

Even those who have just advanced to Third Tier Supernatural would suffer greatly in these traps; only a monster like Su Hao can make it look so easy.

After passing through this corridor, Su Hao arrived at a workshop housing three large mechanical devices.

These three devices are similar in size, but the materials used are different.

From near to far, they are made respectively of black iron alloy, bronze alloy, and silver alloy.

Besides these three devices, the workshop also contains many robots, but at a glance they are clearly not combat‑type robots.

They carry no weapons; their hands hold manufacturing tools such as wrenches and welding equipment, as they perform maintenance on the workshop's devices.

Upon seeing Su Hao's party enter, they merely glanced over and went back to work, murmuring, "Could it be… that there are really lifestyle‑type robots here?"

Su Hao stroked his chin, judging from the current scene, he felt this possibility was quite high.

Judging by these robots' behavior, they are obviously manufacturing‑type robots.

Since there are attack‑type and manufacturing‑type robots, the chance of there being service‑type robots is still considerable.

Even if not, letting the manufacturing‑type robots handle everyday chores like watering flowers or picking fruit would surely be fine.

Thereafter, Su Hao stopped pondering and approached the nearest of the large mechanical devices.

This device resembles the other two, its exterior full of technological flair—a rectangular prism roughly thirty meters long, ten meters wide, and three meters high, entirely made of black iron alloy.

Now this instrument is in a stopped state; those manufacturing-type robots, ignoring Su Hao's approach, are performing routine maintenance on it beside the instrument.

If other robots are needed for maintenance, then this device probably isn't a living thing.

Su Hao lightly tapped the instrument with his finger, then slightly focused his mind, and used the Item Appraisal Technique on the device before him.

【Black Iron Robot Maintenance Device】

Supernatural Grade: First Rank

Effect: Place a black iron robot inside, consume the corresponding black iron alloy and energy crystal, and the damaged parts of the black iron robot can be fully repaired.

One black iron robot maintenance device can maintain up to five black iron robots at a time.

……

I didn't expect there to be a maintenance device; this set is quite complete.

Su Hao nodded slightly; with this set of devices, the black iron robots no longer need to worry too much about wear and tear.

Unfortunately, lacking a robot assembly device, this set of devices is temporarily useless for Su Hao.

Otherwise, he could produce black iron robots as trade goods, and also use this assembly device to provide after-sales service to buyers, thereby earning extra money.

However, Su Hao didn't feel too regretful; since there is a robot maintenance device here, there is a good chance of finding a robot assembly device in this Pyramid.

Thinking of this, Su Hao raised his head to look at the other two large instruments in the workshop.

【Bronze Robot Maintenance Device】

……

【White Cloud Robot Maintenance Device】

……

Silver robot?

Seeing this final appraisal result, Su Hao couldn't help but slightly furrow his brow.

Black iron robots are Supernatural Grade First Rank machines, bronze robots are Supernatural Grade Second Rank machines, so this silver robot is likely a Supernatural Grade Third Tier machine.

If there are only one or two Supernatural Grade Third Tier silver robots, Su Hao has a relatively high chance of winning.

But if, like the bronze robots, they often come in several hundred, then Su Hao would only have to run away.

「The upcoming exploration needs to be more careful. 」

Realizing that this pyramid might contain Supernatural Grade Third Tier silver robots, and that their numbers might not be few, Su Hao had to stay alert, lest he suffer a setback here.
