[2] Genius Mechanic

Chapter 203

Energy Freeze

Ying Chenlin slightly glanced at the mecha beside him, taking advantage of Zhao Lejie's light to see a bit more clearly. The shell of You Su's mecha showed no signs of damage. He noticed that the positions of the two mechas were a bit too close, and You Su's un-converged psychic power was right next to them.

He couldn't help but take a step back to distance himself, but that layer of psychic power seemed to persist.

"Chenlin." Yuan's voice was timely reminded. It hadn't detected any abnormalities in Chenlin's body, but there were subtle fluctuations in psychic power and heart rate.

Chenlin snapped out of his thoughts, taking a syringe from his portable medic kit.

He hadn't taken his daily injection today, and when the needle touched the skin next to the mecha arm, he hesitated for half a second. It seemed that every time before entering a polluted area, You Su would remind him to inject himself, and today, he didn't remind him.

On the side, You Su's gaze fell on the adjacent mecha. The chirping voices of Theo were still continuing in his mind, and he quickly closed his eyes.

"Why is your body temperature rising again?" Theo's puzzled voice continued, "The surface temperature is high too. You Su, this is inside the ice."

The two fell silent, quickly drawing the attention of the two mechas behind. When pulling the Shadow Fox that had been wedged down earlier, Chenlin in front hadn't moved much. It was rare; usually, when dealing with pollutants, Chenlin would be nearby, telling them what worked well and what needed special treatment.

"Old Zhao, the road ahead is up to you," Huo Yan shouted.

Zhao Lejie: "...still digging."

With a cracking sound, the breaking ice echoed in the dark passage. While Zhao Lejie was turning to dig the road, Huo Yan and Lin Yao were dealing with the Shadow Fox at the very back. This pollutant, used as a cushion, still hadn't completely died, but fortunately, the roots of the pollutant bound it tightly, especially the ones around its neck, almost strangling it.

Lin Yao delivered a blow to finish off this thing, skillfully dug out the extraordinary crystal from its brain, and placed it into storage.

The storage was already full, considering the pollutants in the pit they had dealt with before. They had almost filled their storage. Huo Yan thought that when they found a spacious place, they would have to transfer everything in the storage to storage devices. Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space behind.

Star Alliance missions had a limited time frame, but this time frame wasn't announced in advance. It was basically determined based on the speed of the participating teams in clearing the polluted area. According to the information controlled by Dawn, it was unlikely to exceed a week. They had no sense of time underground, and there was no distinction between day and night here. Calculating the time, they had been inside for almost two days.

"What do you think SLY is interested in?" Huo Yan looked at Chenlin in confusion. "You think it might not be pollutants?"

When Chenlin was asked, he paused for a moment and quickly said, "I feel it's probably not pollutants."

"Not pollutants? What else could it be?" Lin Yao racked his brain, "Plants? Ores? Materials? Do they lack these?"

Before they were attacked by the special pollutant, they already had doubts about the environment in the snowy mountains. The abnormal growth rate of this unusual pollutant was definitely related to the unique nature of the Slaire pollution area. And now, because one of their coordinates disappeared, all the strong teams were like hunters smelling a scent, urgently rushing over, their eager expressions evident.
