Damn, what’s all this even about?

Could it be that in the middle of combat, I’ll have to tell my opponent to wait while I change batteries? Although it’s true that ordinary Pet Beasts also rely on physical strength and Energy,

I can’t help but feel that this scenario is a bit cringey and nonsensical.

Despite indeed fitting in with some impressions of a Mechanical Pet Beast, Su Ping always felt that it lacked a certain something.

”What, not satisfied?”

Wang Quan had appeared beside Su Ping at some unknown time.

Su Ping nodded. ”I feel that this sort of Mechanical Pet Beast depends too much on Mechanical Weapons and electric energy sources.”

Wang Quan still had that mechanical smile. ”There are no eternally perfect Pet Beasts, but the future will surely see eternally perfect machinery. This is the ultimate pursuit of all Mechanists. However, on the road to realizing this future, Mechanical Weapons and energy sources are the most powerful support.”

Su Ping nodded, remaining silent.

However, after giving Wang Quan a quick glance, he asked, ”Do you need something?”

Wang Quan gave a slight smile. ”Indeed, I have something to attend to. Do you have any more questions?”

Su Ping understood. He didn’t mind, as he wasn’t the Sun, expecting everyone to revolve around him. ”It’s okay, you go ahead and do your thing. I can manage by myself. Thank you very much for your assistance!”

Wang Quan nodded, then after a moment’s thought, he said, ”If you find it boring, the Mechanical Association is vast. Aside from certain strictly off-limits areas, you’re free to explore the rest. With Haotian around, there won’t be any danger inside the Association.”

Truth be told, that sounded a bit like an adult instructing a bored child before leaving.

Su Ping was rather speechless.

But he nodded in agreement nonetheless.

However, after delving into the principles of these mechanisms and basic theoretical knowledge, Su Ping became interested. He even explored creating blueprints for Mechanical Pet Beasts, their assembly, and assessing blueprint Evolution.

Book learning is shallow without practical experience!

With that thought, Su Ping followed Wang Quan out of the office that resembled a factory, arriving at the center of the compound, where the huge Mechanical Titan, Haotian, stood guard.

Its hundred-meter-high colossal head surveyed all directions, keeping a clear view of everything within the compound.

This place resembled a bustling market, with numerous figures entering and exiting.

However, Su Ping had barely arrived when something happened that he hadn’t anticipated.

A burly man, carrying a young man like a small chick, emerged from a building that resembled a department store. Its sign read ’Exchange Factory.’ The man then addressed the giant Mechanical Titan nearby, ”Lord Haotian, this fellow has sold these useless, deceptive blueprints multiple times, violating the rules of our Mechanical Association, hasn’t he? Can he be permanently expelled?”

Haotian bent down, looking at these few Little Ones, who resembled small chicks. ”What blueprints?”

”This guy boasts recklessly! He claims to have mechanical blueprints for something that can recover energy in a self-sustained cycle without needing energy consumption! That’s simply not possible. It’s a scam...”

”I’m not scamming anyone! You guys just haven’t found the suitable mechanical body to accommodate it, and now you’re blaming me...”

Suddenly, Su Ping, who was about to step into the ’Exchange Factory,’ halted.
