[1] Genius Mechanic

Chapter 20

Sold out

S-level Ability crystals are rare, and even the Tianlang Star's [Quest] organization may not encounter one in a year. The pollution zones near Tianlang Star reach a maximum of Level 3 pollution, and A-level Ability crystals are the highest-grade found there. Even if an S-level Ability crystal were to appear, it would likely have been collected by nearby mech bases.

It's uncommon for a mech pilot to bring a crystal for testing, especially one that is an unrecorded S-level dual-attribute Ability crystal, a presence that could fetch a sky-high price at an auction.

The researcher's gaze couldn't help but fall on Ying Chenlin, lingering on his mechanical arm for a moment. Despite appearing too young, the emotions on his face have been scarce since entering the lab.

Receiving many guests for testing is nothing new for them. Some are ecstatic with the results, while others regret the structure. Even personnel from mech bases occasionally show emotions during testing.

However, it's rare to encounter a customer who remains calm after obtaining an S-level Ability crystal.

The researcher, not underestimating Ying Chenlin due to his appearance, meticulously introduced him: "This type of Ability crystal is extremely rare in the Star Alliance. We also provide assistance to the testing party. If you need to sell this crystal, we can contact suitable organizations for auction. If..."

"No need," Ying Chenlin interrupted.

The researcher was slightly taken aback but didn't continue. He placed the data tablet in front of Ying Chenlin, zeroing out the data in front of him. "We are obligated to protect the privacy of our clients. We have sent you the test results, and this report is the only copy. All remaining test data has been destroyed. If you need further assistance, you can contact us."

Ying Chenlin thanked him and settled the fees before leaving.

The researcher sighed, wearing a somewhat tired expression.

After his colleague came in, he asked, "What happened? Was that guest troublesome?"

"Not really," the researcher thought about the two guests he received today. Recently, he received a guest who brought a bunch of A-level Ability crystals for testing but remained indifferent to the results. The other one was just now, showing no change in expression even when holding an S-level dual-attribute Ability crystal.

"I just feel that Tianlang Star is not as simple as it seems."

Outside [Quest], many mech pilots were coming and going.

Ying Chenlin passed by others, the storage device and mech key hidden in his collar jingling. Glancing at the time, he had delayed here for some time. It seemed there was something else to attend to at the base.

In KID's internal group chat, the discussion was lively.

A call came in, and Ying Chenlin called a floating car before answering the communication: "Boss."

The noisy communication line on the other end, accompanied by Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao's excited voices.

Is Ying Chenlin back?

"We've sold out of all our parts!"

Ying Chenlin hesitated for a moment. So fast...?

Half a day ago.

The KID official blog, silent for a long time, finally surfaced.

Fans rushed to the blog, thinking that KID was finally going to reveal information about the new season of Artillery Mecha Pilots. However, upon entering KID's virtual page, they were redirected to a newly established virtual store.
