It is worth ntioning that the 7-A-3 chanical Outpost is situated at the edge of the barren land on the city’s outskirts, outside the reach of the No Light Zone.
Therefore, those gang mbers can only stay inside the buildings within the No Light Zone and wait; ultimately, only Jiko can proceed to the destination.
After fully recuperating, Jiko adjusted his status to the optimal condition, and after confirming the direction, he set out for the target location.
Contrary to his imagination, he did not encounter any obstacles from Mutants along the way, nor did he find any Alien Species, easily passing through the small barren area to enter the interior of the 7-A-3 chanical Outpost.
This is a large ground defense base mainly used to prevent Mutant Beasts from the city’s surroundings from harming the city interior, and also for cha maintenance and processing work.
The architectural style inside the 7-A-3 chanical Outpost is mostly low, bungalow-like structures, differing from the skyscrapers within the city.
Additionally, most areas within the outpost are open spaces for cha testing and drills.
As Jiko walked, without stepping into the housing area, he had already seen five or six towering chas and seven or eight giant cannons over five ters tall in the exercise field outside.
"Wow, this is what alien civilization should look like... After being stuck in that damned city for three years, I finally get to see real chas!"
Jiko’s expression was full of excitent.
As a man, a true iron-blooded warrior, how could he not love chas?
Jiko once learned so knowledge about cha operation through online courses on the Star Network at Hope Base, but he never had the chance to practice it.
Now, upon seeing these chas, how could he not be excited? He even couldn’t resist wanting to try hands-on practice.
However, he also knew that in this environnt of Crimson Light, all electronic equipnt had failed, and those chas had beco heaps of useless iron lumps, temporarily leaving only the option to look without being able to operate.
Cautiously passing through the exercise field, Jiko quickly entered the housing area.
The housing area is not large, occupying only about 10% of the total area of the 7-A-3 chanical Outpost.
Yet it is a place fused with extrely advanced technology, with dozens of chas neatly lined up, forming an impressive array.
So of these chas are finished products already fully assembled, while others are partially assembled semi-finished products.
Various cha parts are also stacked in scale in the warehouse, making one’s eyes dazzle and drool uncontrollably.
"I’m rich, I’m rich! So many cha parts to bring back, what a huge contribution that would be!"
At this mont, Jiko couldn’t help but start dreaming of a wonderful future.
"That guy Morris kept flaunting his Eye of Calamity in front of last ti... hehe, now that I’ve found so many chas and parts, I’ll soon have my own Eye of Calamity too..."
He couldn’t help but drool, imagining how things would look once he got his hands on the equipnt.
The Eye of Calamity is a rare treasure indeed, these cha resources are certainly attractive, but compared to such a high-level Dark Spiritual Artifact as the Eye of Calamity, it’s simply insignificant.
One must know the Eye of Calamity is also a rare high-level equipnt within the organization, not only able to change shape according to the owner’s intention but also continuously upgrade to enhance strength.
Unfortunately, since Jiu Jiu is not on Water Blue Star, the Calamity Stone requires a long evolution ti to be usable, and with low production, crafting an Eye of Calamity becos very difficult.
But the 7-A-3 chanical Outpost counts as the first batch of large-scale cha bases discovered by the organization in recent years, Jiko believes if he reports the location found, he himself would surely get his own Eye of Calamity.
"Including the chas outside the housing area, there are a total of 23 units here, excluding the damaged and semi-finished ones, fully completed chas total 15 units! Wow! I’m going to get rich!"
Inside the housing area, Jiko was calculating his haul from this trip.
"Hmm... Plus the two warehouses full of cha parts, roughly estimating should be over 1000 parts... hehe, I’d fear this ti I might not just obtain a single Eye of Calamity, but even upgrade it to Second Stage, possessing greater power..."
In high spirits, he quickly toured the entire 7-A-3 chanical Outpost, confirming his harvest this ti.
Yet as he completed his route, Jiko suddenly sensed sothing was amiss.
"Strange, why is it so quiet? In this military defense base, there isn’t a single person...?"
Jiko quickly sobered from the joy of a great harvest, eyeing his surroundings vigilantly.
Such a large military base, occupying at least over four square kiloters.
Even though most are used for cha test combat drills, the number of regular personnel in the base should be about 20,000 or so.
Even considering that Guleng Star is a civilization sowhat reliant on automated chanical managent, the number of defensive personnel might relatively be fewer, but it shouldn’t fall below 5,000.
Yet up until now, he’s been here for so long, not seeing a living person, not even a single Mutant, which is decidedly odd.
"No one... seems like the Phantom Spirit Clan guy wouldn’t be here either..."
Jiko searched again all around, confirming no results, his face inevitably showing a hint of disappointnt.
Although he knew the chance of encountering the opponent at so many possible locations was small, he still held so hope.
But now it seems, he is not the Luck Emperor after all, the grand prize didn’t fall on him.
While searching, suddenly a fleeting shadow crossed the corner of his eye.
"Who’s there?!"
He quickly turned around, but saw only a still silence.
Such an eerie scene made Jiko instantly beco hyper-vigilant.
In the dictionary of Bounty Hunters, "illusion" and "coincidence" don’t exist.
Whenever an anomaly appears nearby, it must be a real issue.
"Spirit Detection Technique!"
Jiko didn’t hesitate, quickly activating the Spirit Detection Technique, looking around intently.
Only, within the 50-ter range of his Spirit Detection Technique, the surroundings were empty, finding no anomaly.
"Could that guy’s speed... really be so fast...?"
Jiko showed a face of doubt.
He activated the Spirit Detection Technique only one or two seconds, but the opponent had already escaped his detection range in such a short ti, which evidently seed impossible.
Because according to regular logic, if there’s really a monster monitoring him, it should not imdiately be aware upon his sudden activation of Spirit Detection Technique.
On this planet, whether Mutant or Alien Species, could be observed by the feel of Spirit Detection Technique.
"Could it be that this guy also has the ability to hide his aura?"
Jiko muttered to himself.
He recalled so Alien Species intelligence recorded in the "Alien Species Manual", with so capable of evading Spirit Detection Technique.
"Wait... what’s that...?"
Jiko suddenly squinted his eyes slightly, concentrating on the position underfoot.
He saw under the earth, he could faintly discern hundreds of squirming subtle figures, those things appearing small, and close to the edge of the Spirit Detection Technique’s perception, hence he initially did not notice.
"Underground!?"
Jiko’s expression changed, imdiately pulling back a distance.
What he had just seen was nurous, to be on the safe side, he planned to first apply a round of buff status to himself before exploring slowly.
"Growl~"
Just as he was about to take action, a strange cry ca from behind at close proximity.
Jiko was shocked, hurriedly turning around, only to see a pair of gigantic eyes and a terrifying human face.
"Buzz!"
Imdiately, a powerful wave surged inside his mind, causing his vision to go black, losing consciousness.
