Chapter 138

"Energy Laser Gun?"

Ling'er blinked slightly, "Do you have a manufacturing device for the Energy Laser Gun? Father, aren't you aware?"

But soon she realized the reason.

Acting!

Yes, that's acting!

I still haven't gotten into the role; I still need to learn properly from Father.

Afterwards, Ling'er quickly adjusted her state, pointing to the railing at the end of the workshop and said:

"Father, the manufacturing devices for the Energy Weapons are over there."

"Underground third level?"

Following Ling'er's pointed direction, Su Hao then saw that at the end of this workshop there was a railing just over a meter high, and beneath that railing was the underground third level of the T235 Experimental Base.

This means that part of the second and third underground levels of the T235 Experimental Base are interconnected.

Only half of the second underground level belongs to the second level; the remaining half is a space where the second and third levels are connected, forming a huge space over two hundred meters high.

From Su Hao's current position, he could only see that on the wall facing the silver gate, there was half of a huge humanoid metal framework, with many pipes connected to it.

Judging by its appearance, Su Hao guessed this was the device for placing the God Light Gundam; as for the other things in the underground third level, they would need to be seen by going down.

"Shall we go down and take a look?"

"Alright, Father, this way; the entrance to the elevator to the underground third level over there has been destroyed by me, so we can only go down the stairs."

Ling'er nodded and led Su Hao toward the stairs beside the railing.

Originally, to prevent invaders from the Corrupt Church from infiltrating via the elevator into the third underground level of the T235 Experimental Base and seizing control of the central control system.

So Ling'er completely sealed off the elevator entrance to the underground third level, eliminating any possibility of entering via elevator.

Fortunately, Su Hao and Ling'er are not ordinary people; a flight of stairs over a hundred meters high didn't take long, and they soon reached the underground third level of this experimental base.

The area of the underground third level is more than double that of the second underground level, yet there aren't many things here.

On the four walls, only the wall facing the elevator door—that is, the wall opposite the stairs—has a circular metal frame; the other walls are empty, with even the pipes pre‑buried in the wall.

The things on the ground are similarly simple, only four items.

Two of them are the same size, rectangular mechanical components made entirely of silver alloy, placed side by side against the wall opposite the stairs, beneath that humanoid frame.

Compared to the three rectangular mechanical devices on the second underground level, these two full‑body devices are larger in volume; one is about 120 meters long, the other nearly 200 meters.

Besides these two devices, at the center of this space there is also a huge blue projection resembling a human head, about ten meters high; this is likely the central control system.

To the right of this projection is a huge furnace nearly a hundred meters high, beside which are piled large amounts of iron ore and huge crates.

To the left of this projection is a cylindrical device filled with an unknown liquid.

If nothing unexpected happens, those two mechanical devices made of silver alloy are the equipment used to forge Energy Weapons.

Thinking this, Su Hao's mind stirred, and he used the Item Appraisal Technique on the nearer mechanical device.

【Mechanical Core Manufacturing Device】

Supernatural Grade: Third Tier

Effect: Place the corresponding alloy into the material slot, set the designated program, and after consuming sufficient energy, you can produce the corresponding black iron mechanical core, bronze mechanical core, and silver mechanical core……

"Mechanical Core Manufacturing Device?!"

Seeing the appraisal result displayed, Su Hao couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Originally he merely thought that if he could use the corresponding robot‑manufacturing devices to turn all the black‑iron and bronze mechanical alloys on his person into about a thousand black‑iron and bronze robots, that would already be a good harvest.

But he never expected that even a Mechanical Core Manufacturing Device would be present in this underground third level.

Thus, as long as he has sufficient materials—namely black‑iron, bronze, and silver alloys—Su Hao can mass‑produce mechanical cores.

Then, using these mechanical cores, he could mass‑produce the corresponding robots, even a large batch of silver robots, which is also possible.

However, to achieve this there are three prerequisites: first, sufficient alloy is required—black‑iron alloy for black‑iron robots, and the corresponding alloys for bronze and silver robots.

Without the corresponding raw materials, even obtaining the robot core manufacturing device and the corresponding robot manufacturing device would be useless scrap iron.

Second, sufficient energy crystals are required; even with enough alloy materials, without enough energy crystals you cannot even activate the device, let alone refine.

Third, the device must have the relevant program preset; otherwise it's pointless, since Su Hao isn't Lars and doesn't know anything about robot‑manufacturing knowledge.

If the relevant program isn't preset, even if Su Hao puts in sufficient materials and provides ample energy, the robots he ultimately produces will be merely hollow models with no actual capabilities.

As for whether this device has the relevant program preset, we'll have to try it to know.

"Let's wait a moment and try it later; first let's look at the remaining device."

Afterwards, Su Hao's mind stirred, and he used the Item Appraisal Technique on the relatively smaller mechanical device not far away.

If nothing unexpected happens, this device is used for forging Energy Weapons.

【Intelligent Energy Weapon Manufacturing Device】

Supernatural Grade: Third Tier

Effect: Place the corresponding mechanical core, as well as black‑iron, bronze, or silver alloy, into this device; after consuming sufficient energy, you can produce the corresponding Energy Weapon.

Or, by inputting the corresponding alloy, you can produce disposable Energy items such as Energy bullets and Energy grenades.

……

"Holy shit, forging Energy Weapons also requires using a mechanical core……"

Looking at the appraisal result displayed, Su Hao's face inevitably turned somewhat grim.

If mass‑producing mechanical cores proves impossible, it's fine anyway, since he also has about a thousand black‑iron mechanical alloys and bronze mechanical cores on him.

Using these mechanical cores, he could also forge two thousand corresponding robots; trading them with the Divine Xia would yield a large sum of energy crystals.

Even if he subsequently cannot produce those robots again, it would not be a major loss for Su Hao.

But if he possesses the Energy Weapon manufacturing device yet cannot use it to forge Energy Weapons, that would be hard for Su Hao to accept.

This is tantamount to having the ingredients, seasonings, cookware, and even the recipe.

But because the recipe lacked the manufacturing method, this thing could only be looked at; for a food lover, that's really a painful situation!

After all, the focus still falls on the mechanical core!

Su Hao let out a sigh and walked toward the mechanical core's intelligent manufacturing device; whether these devices could be turned into actual combat power depended on whether relevant programs were preset inside the mechanical devices.
