Chapter 12 Xia An is shocked, Xu Gu is equally shocked

"Hiss!"

Xia An gasped in shock, staring at the massive creature before her, momentarily dizzy, her heart whipping up a storm of shock and awe.

"The power of the Mechanical Abyss descends, the Steel Beasts have gone berserk. Even I find it hard to move an inch in this area, yet he's been bulldozing his way through?

"Facing a group of Advanced Steel Twin-headed Wolves alone, he slashes down each one as if he were a Heavenly God descending?"

Xia An's heart trembled, and then her face was filled with shock, her breathing rapid, her Power Core nearly stopped working:

"Wait!"

"That's not a Steel Beast!"

"That's a Mechanical Monster!"

"How is this possible!"

Suddenly, Xia An realized something, completely losing her composure, her voice sharply escalating into a scream, overwhelmed and unable to accept this reality.

This scene, was truly the most unforgettable scene of her life.

One should know, each Mechanical Monster that comes from the Mechanical Abyss is extremely terrifying, and they're all Elite!

And in front of that handsome, gigantic Mechanical Man, there were actually dozens, if not hundreds of Mechanical Monsters!

Judging by their aura, their levels were extremely high!

Just this group of Mechanical Monsters, if they were to surge out and enter Xia City, Xia City would likely fall into turmoil!

Her? If she tries to stop them, it would surely be GG!

Yet, before that giant Mechanical Man with red and blue colors, these fierce and menacing Mechanical Monsters, capable of spouting Divine Flames and surrounded by a dark aura, collapsed like chickens and dogs, instantly destroyed at a touch!

"How can Xia City have such a powerful Mechanical Man!"

"That's a swarm of Mechanical Monsters!"

Xia An, coming from the Provincial City and being the Vice Chairwoman of the Xia City Mechanical Association, had seen many grand scenes, but she had never seen a scene quite like this!

"Could it be, someone from another city, or even the Provincial City, has foreseen the spread of the Mechanical Abyss Rift in advance?"

"And came to provide support?"

Xia An guessed in her heart.

She had heard that today, Xia City High School had an S-rank freshman awaken, Apparently a heavy-duty type, but she was too busy today, and even if there was an S-rank freshman awaken, it had nothing to do with her and wasn't of much interest to her.

She hadn't thought of Xu Gu.

In fact, she didn't dare to think about it.

One is a newly awakened rookie S-rank, and the other is an invincible behemoth slicing through Mechanical Monsters like nothing!

No matter how she thought, the two images just didn't overlap.

Xia An forcefully suppressed the shock in her heart, not daring to disturb, quietly waiting for Xu Gu to clear all the Mechanical Monsters.

...

Boom!

Finally, the last Twin-headed Flame Wolf's mechanical body heavily fell to the ground followed by a massive explosion, sending a turbulent wave of air and countless steel parts flying.

Xu Gu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was powerful in numbers, he had no battle experience; slaying beasts was all about strength and lacked finesse, thus somewhat wasting energy.

However, fortunately, being an SSS-rank Mechanical and also a genius, his aptitude was extremely high, and his battle experience was rapidly improving.

From the last Twin-headed Mechanical Flame Wolf, a fist-sized Crystal Energy flew out, landing on the body of Xu Gu as a Mechanical Man.

[Creation Points +1000]

[Experience +1000]

[Charging Absorption, Firepower +100]

And before that, similar prompts had reached an astonishing 99+!

[Mechanical Level Up! Current Level 4!]

"Finally Level 4! This was too tough!" Xu Gu cried tears of relief, feeling that leveling up was difficult.

No wonder those old folks in the school, who are all decades old, were only at Level 30 or 40; indeed, leveling up is truly difficult.

He had worked so hard, and only now did he reach Level 4!

Meanwhile, Xu Gu noticed that other accessories had also been upgraded.

[S-rank accessory Blue Fury Sky Slash level up, current Level 4!]

[B-rank accessory…]

Xu Gu now has a wide radar range and is aware that there are people standing nearby, but since the other party did not approach and was still far away, he did not pay attention.

[Linker: Xu Gu]

[Level: 4]

[Rank: SSS]

[Firepower: 2920+8000]

[Defense: 2360]

[Power: 2200]

[Loaded Accessories: 8 (1 S-rank lv4, 2 B-rank lv4, 5 C-rank lv4.)]

Looking at the panel data, Xu Gu gasped in astonishment.

"Blue Fury Sky Slash's firepower addition, is it this terrifying?"

"8000?"

In Xu Gu's hands, the Blue Fury Sky Slash sparkled with a myriad of raging Thunderbolts, as if he was holding an overwhelming tumultuous ocean!

Even Xu Gu's heart-like Power Core felt somewhat overwhelmed by the excessive excitement.

He opened the panel attributes for Blue Fury Sky Slash.

[S-rank·lv4·Blue Fury Sky Slash]

[Firepower Addition: 800]

[Trait: Sharp, can slice through any object!]

[Blue Fury Buildup: Each battle allows for continued Charging Absorption by slaying Steel Beasts or Mechanical Monsters, temporarily gaining a firepower addition, with an upper limit of 20000 firepower.]

[Current: Buildup Firepower Addition 8000]

As the level increases, the upper limit for the Blue Fury Buildup's firepower addition also increases.

However, as the buildup increases, the efficiency of the buildup also sharply declines; a level 20 Steel Tiger previously could absorb an additional 200 firepower.

Now, a level 25 Mechanical Monster can only add up to 100 firepower.

Even so, Xu Gu found it terrifying!

He was only level 4, yet he already had 11000 firepower!

Afterward, if he grinds in the Mechanical Abyss, stacking kills on the outskirts for half a day, reaching full buildup before entering the core area of Mechanical Abyss to grind the BOSS, wouldn't he just sweep through it?

"Just right, there seems to be a Mechanical Abyss descending in front of me, and it appears that a mechanical tide is about to erupt, this is my chance to directly stack the Blue Fury Buildup to the maximum.

"Then, slay the BOSS! Not only can I level up, but also gain a massive amount of points!"

Thinking this, Xu Gu's spirits soared even hotter.

At the same time,

Xia An, transformed into a motorcycle form, rushed towards Xu Gu, speaking with a voice full of feminine charm:

"I am the Vice Chairman of Xia City Motorcycle Club, with no ill intentions, just wishing to collect some Mechanical Abyss power for research.

"Also, thank you for eliminating these terrifying mechanical monsters for Xia City."

"Vice Chairman of Xia City Motorcycle Club?" Xu Gu's eyes narrowed slightly as he watched Xia An approach.

As an A-rank sports car, Xia An naturally had a glamorous model. In the next instant, she transformed into a Mechanical Man.

Her graceful figure, handsome face, beautiful curves, and various advanced accessories flashed with dazzling brilliance...

No wonder she had countless fans in Xia City.

"I wonder, sir, where are you from? Provincial City or Xu City? Could we exchange contacts?"

Seeing Xu Gu did not refuse, Xia An began to collect the Mechanical Abyss power around and even equipped some dual-headed Mechanical Flame Wolves parts into her core, growing considerably fonder of Xu Gu.

And seeing Xu Gu, energetic and without a hint of dullness, must be extremely young and potent.

Immediately, this commonly recognized strong woman of Xia City found her heart overwhelmed with romantic thoughts.

If she could unite with such a powerful Mechanical Man, her life would be without regrets.

"Where am I from?" Xu Gu raised an eyebrow, knowing she hadn't recognized him, shook his head, and said: "That's not important. But we can exchange contacts."

He didn't conceal the matter of his talents.

Now with foreign threats looming, he needs to reveal his talents to gain more resources, as long as he doesn't expose his most core secrets.

Xia An's status was not low; in the early stages, he might be able to benefit from her.

"Ah? Ah!"

Hearing Xu Gu unwilling to disclose where he came from, Xia An instinctively felt a bit disappointed, but then, turned overwhelmingly ecstatic.

She hadn't expected such a strong individual to agree to her request to exchange contacts!
