"Co, I'll count down 3, 2, 1, and we'll cut this energy pathway together."
A voice of exchange echoed in the huge chanical structure.
Kane, who was dismantling the massive machine, said to Chaco on the other side.
Chaco was the first chanical lifeform to awaken; this was the na he gave himself after being single.
It seed to have no special aning, just a simple coded word.
Apart from him, two other chanical lifeforms had also awakened and begun assisting in dismantling the machine.
Upon waking, the two saw Chaco's actions and didn't ask many questions, imdiately starting to help.
To be honest, such an attitude really suited Kane, rational and with strong action capability.
With the final energy pathway cut off, the entire chanical structure was almost completely dismantled.
What remained was to violently dismantle so unimportant parts, which were welded onto the structure.
Originally, these might have been intended to protect the machine and conceal its general appearance.
At this ti, Kane heard the noises outside slow down and directed all his senses outward.
Through his sensory perception, he detected that the battle outside seed to have ended.
Luckily, they hadn't lost anyone on their side.
Kane silently calculated that the battle from start to finish took approximately half an hour.
"Quite a long ti spent; were the enemies really that formidable?" Kane thought curiously.
His senses had already been extended out at the start of the battle.
He could perceive the number and strength of the enemies outside, and initially thought Kreya and the others could finish the fight in about 10 minutes.
After all, the enemy's squad didn't seem very strong.
Given that level of strength and quantity, Kreya and the others should have been able to swiftly overpower and defeat them.
"Has the battle outside ended? How did it turn out?" Chaco asked, lifting his head as he continued dismantling.
He too seed to have sensed the peacefulness settling outside.
His tone was involuntarily filled with excitent.
Kane nodded and said, "The battle outside has ended, and of course, we won."
"That fast? It seems you really are impressive; no wonder the Energy Master asked for your help," Chuck remarked with so admiration, then bowed his head and continued working.
"Energy Master? You an Keboc, right?"
"Of course."
Kane didn't pursue what the Energy Master ant; these are details not urgent to know now.
Instead, he asked, "Were the enemies strong?"
Since Kane didn't witness the specific scenes of Kreya and others battling the enemies, he couldn't clearly determine their combat power.
But judging by the number and intensity of the energy emitted by the enemies, Kreya and the others took half an hour to claim victory, indicating they weren't weak.
At least they were surely much stronger than the Cannibal Ghosts.
If a Cannibal Ghost army had faced Kreya and the others in such numbers,
it would have been swiftly crushed like slicing through vegetables, possibly taking even less than 10 minutes.
It's not that Kane looks down on the Cannibal Ghosts; it's that Kreya and the others' strength should indeed produce such a result.
At this point, Chaco remained silent, while another chanical lifeform engaged in dismantling spoke, "The enemies were indeed formidable, as the Energy Master described. Their Magic Technology was only slightly inferior to our Red chanical Race during its peak; in so areas, maybe even higher."
"Looking at it like this, they certainly shouldn't be underestimated."
Kane said.
The chanical lifeform's description gave Kane a vague but relatable understanding of the enemies' strength.
He knew how developed the Red chanical Race was during its peak.
After all, it was Kane's first chanical dungeon encounter and the guild's initial exploration.
Kane had explored the Gobi Ruins ticulously, coupled with his conversations with Keboc at the ti and the information on the USB drive.
He roughly understood the technological level of the Gobi Ruins.
During its peak period, the chanical Race, particularly the Red one, should have been capable of full automation.
Moreover, they possessed advanced energy attack technology that Kane only acquired close to his Promotion to Gold level in the Silver period.
Especially in terms of chanical biological structures, the Red chanical Race certainly excelled.
Those chanical scorpions and giant chanical spiders were very cheap yet effective war tools.
Moreover, their durability ans their offensive weapons were better than Kane had anticipated.
In the midst of casual chatting, the final work was completed.
The massive chanical structure had completely separated from its outer shell.
Essentially, it was equivalent to this huge machine being dismantled from the building.
Previously, they could actually be seen as a whole.
Kane looked at the massive chanical structure resembling a skewed rhombus, asking, "Is it fine like this?"
This chanical structure indeed looked advanced, if one could ignore its appearance, which beca sowhat rugged and unsightly due to the dismantling work.
Chaco stepped forward and said, "There's one final step remaining."
Then he extended his chanical hand, inserted it into the massive chanical structure, and turned it a few tis.
It's as if a program password was inputted.
The entire chanical shell began to change, with layer upon layer of arc-shaped shells extending from the inside and fitting together.
These shells fit together smoothly, then securely rged.
The internal machinery even started to contract towards the center.
In just a short ti, the entire chanism turned into a square cube, like a complete unit, with no visible seams from the outside.
Moreover, the volu was reduced by about half, which is quite remarkable.
It's important to know this is a very significant construction, not just any random structure.
The related space and technology inside are tightly constructed.
Being able to reduce it by half for transport is truly impressive.
It seems their large-scale chanical extension and contraction technology is strong as well; Kane hardly conducted much research in this area.
This technology, I really want it.
Afterward, he placed the massive chanical cube into the Guild's warehouse.
It's not a living entity, just a cold machine, able to be stored normally.
This is good, saving Kane a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"Alright, I've stored it for you, it's in a safe space now, let's head out."
Saying so, Kane walked outside, and the three chanical life forms imdiately followed.
When Kane exited the huge chanical building, he saw large craters everywhere outside, with surrounding forests broken in patches.
The fallen trunks and branches on the ground bore dark marks, with many still smoldering as if they were just extinguished not long ago.
On the still-standing trees, there were dense bullet holes and burnt holes left by beam attacks penetrating through.
Flas and smoke, as well as dust, floated in the air.
Outside, it was completely a ss, with various chanical fragnts and twisted broken corpses strewn everywhere.
The sll of gunpowder, burning wood, and blood mixed together, wafting through the area.
Kane saw that Chaco had already recovered and was using strange magic Kane couldn't understand to gather the corpses.
The magic used manifested an Energy Array exceptionally orderly, like it was precisely drawn using a ruler and asurent tools.
It had a kind of aesthetic of order.
After these bodies gathered together, Chaco wrapped them with surrounding broken steel fragnts, forming a square, then tossed it into a rotating, twisted, black-hole-like opening he created.
A square went in, and then a palm-sized square energy ball erged.
Extracting the last bit of energy from the bodies?
Kane pondered silently.
Not far away, izike was providing simple dical treatnt to so injured Guild mbers.
After all, everyone was of the gold-level rank, with very minor injuries.
If izike didn't treat them, they might have healed naturally.
anwhile, Kreya and the others were recovering so unscathed chas, placing them into the Space Equipnt.
Among them, Star Symbol, Funa, and Yu were assessing the worth of each, determining which ones were completely scrap tal, making transport a waste of ti.
For a chanician, these chanical remnants could all yield knowledge.
If nothing else, they could offer so ideas on structural technology.
Overall, as long as it's related to Magic Machinery, unless severely damaged, it holds value.
The three chanical life forms who exited with Kane imdiately ca to Chaco's side and said: "Energy Master, we have completely dismantled and packed the mother body. It's stored in Kane's Space Equipnt."
Chaco nodded, took the last energy cube from the black hole beside him, and then walked over to Kane.
"Kane, thank you for coming to our rescue. If it weren't for your arrival, we might have completely lost our freedom."
"Not at all, we know each other, helping you is the right thing to do.
Let's not dwell on this, let's hurry and evacuate. We don't know when the enemies will co again."
Upon hearing Kane's words, Chaco didn't refuse but rather nodded.
Kane didn't hesitate either; he imdiately used his Magic Power through Origin Skills to quickly create a new aircraft beside them.
The new chanical aircraft began construction layer by layer, inside out, with a distinctive beauty in its extending effect.
This kind of beauty and effect has a unique appeal to so people.
For instance, the three newborn chanical life forms behind Kane were already srized.
Whether they were srized by Kane's Origin Skills or the resulting exterior effect was unclear.
Chaco also admired with a gaze of appreciation and study, as he was aware of Kane's Origin Skills.
More importantly, he observed the internal structure and design philosophy of the aircraft Kane was constructing.
From this, he could gauge the level of Kane's current Magic chanical Knowledge.
Even if Kane possibly possessed more chanical knowledge from other worlds, at least he could grasp the general idea.
This enabled him to assess how much he and his fellow kin could offer Kane in terms of value.
Especially now, due to Kane and his party's rescue, he could essentially say he has joined Kane's forces.
This is an issue he must contemplate.
