Looking at the scanner, he couldn’t help but feel excited.
It’s not only about the usefulness of the technology,
But also that he confirmed that he can use external things to enhance the system’s function.
A normal scanner can only scan surface-level things, that are on the ground or a few meters deep.
But with the system, regardless of all the obstacles, it can be scanned.
This signifies that there is another trump card when he fully begins exploring the chaotic sea.
“Now, I only need to finish this trial…”
…
A day later, all the things were packed up.
The once magnificent building created by Maximus was packed in the void space,
Making the street seem to just disappear.
“Wanderer, tell them that we are leaving in 10 minutes.”
[Wanderer: As ordered.]
…
[Wanderer: All passengers do know that we will depart in 10 minutes.]
…
10 minutes later…
The blockage that was blocking the mechanical vehicle was taken out, presenting it to the world.
“What is that?”
“Fuck, my warning device is ringing like crazy.”
“Could it be the leader of Shadow City will destroy us for not joining him?” 𝑂𝑽𝐋xt.𝒸𝗈𝐦
For a whole day, people were curious as to what Maximus was doing.
Seeing the city torn apart one by one, they could only be amazed by the efficiency of the robot.
But seeing a huge mechanical monster, they couldn’t help but be nervous.
Soon the mechanical vehicle began to hover.
“It can float?”
“Amazing, if I can also have this…”
Although they were still nervous, they couldn’t hide their amazement at such a mechanical creation.
…
Looking at the commotion below, Maximus just smiled.
“Go! Find the first Tier 5 material,” Maximus ordered Wanderer.
[Wanderer: As ordered.]
Wanderer connected to the material scanning, a thousand-meter radius.
Soon the mechanical vehicle accelerated leaving dust coupled with the amazement of the crowd.
…
A few months later…
Wanderer finally found a large lode of Tier 5 materials after traveling across the entire continent.
“Is this the only land where there are Tier 5 materials?” Maximus noted.
After months of traveling, Wanderer had traversed the entire continent he was in.
But compared to the size of this world, this should only be considered a slightly bigger country.
[Wanderer: This is the only Tier 5 material mine found. Should we include those scrap materials?]
“No, it’s too bothersome. Just finish this and go to another place.”
During these months, Wanderer also found many scrap Tier 5 materials that were used previously.
But since it’s too bothersome to collect small things all over again, he didn’t bother.
As for the monsters, with scanners and without the deliberate target.
Those tier 5 monsters and above, didn’t find them.
As for the more than 4,000 partial members of the Shadow Hunters Guild,
They started to work and earn points.
With the information database that he transferred using the system.
They quickly adapted to the unique materials of this world, making significant progress.
Although it seems that not much has changed in the mechanical vehicle, its functionality has improved significantly.
After all, Maximus is just one person; he can only focus on defense and attack.
Other tasks are scarcely done, just enough for basic use.
Soon the mechanical vehicle landed as various upgraded robots came to the mines.
Seeing the Tier 5 materials coming and going, he couldn’t help but be excited.
“With this, I can overhaul my whole arsenal to Tier 6,” Maximus smiled wildly.
The people on the mechanical vehicle also disembarked, noticing that it had landed.
“Finally out!”
“Huff, some fresh air!”
“It’s too suffocating living inside.”
Although living in the mechanical vehicle is comfortable, it’s still different outside.
“Hahaha, finally I can try my new weapon.” A man laughed proudly equip with dazzling gear.
“Shh, did you buy that thing? How could you possibly have enough points?”
“Hey, you’re too ignorant. I, the genius member of the Shadow Hunter Guild, modified the heating and cooling system of the mechanical vehicle.”
“Damn, you’re the one who had the quick hands that stole the mission first!”
“Hey, who told me to have quick hands? You should practice in your spare time.”
“What are you arguing about?” Cered walked out clad in the most expensive bionic armor and a dazzling weapon.
“Damn, it’s the boss, the rich man!”
Cereb had become a famous mission madman, upgrading robots day and night.
The others followed suit, but because they weren’t that proficient, they didn’t earn many points.
“Hmph, peasants. Let this gentleman test his weapon first.”
While they were having fun testing their weapons and hunting monsters for points,
Maximus was outside relaxing.
“Hmm, this food is not bad. I should add a mission to improve food…”
“Oh, I should also add a mission to make massage chairs.”
Maximus was thinking of what missions to add to make his life more comfortable in this wasteland world.
This was one of his coping mechanisms when he thought of his wives and children.
“Sigh, I wonder what they are doing…”
…
In the Library of Arcana, Maximus’s wives are reading to supplement their knowledge,
Suddenly a man comes up to them.
“Hey, beauties, how about I treat you to something?”
“Tsk, another bug,” Isabella clicked her tongue.
“Hey, so annoying,” Rose muttered.
“Calm down, beauties. I came with no intention of harm.”
“Oh look, the bug talks.” Rose taunted.
“Ladies, please don’t call me that anymore,” he said, warning them with a dark face.
“How rare, even the Library of Arcana has bugs in them.”
“YOU!”
“You what?”
The man didn’t bother further and left.
“Hahaha, just look at his face.”
“Good, I managed to make one leave!” Rose clapped as if she had achieved victory.
They didn’t know when, but they became quite a talk in the institute.
Usually, a beauty of their level is almost everywhere in the institute.
So there should not be much commotion.
However, their progress in the Celestial Ascent Trial is phenomenal, to the point that they made old students look autistic.
If it’s one or two it’s alright, but a bunch of them group together.
No wonder, there are a lot of men and even women attracted to either their beauty or talent.
Their goal is mostly to solicit them to their guild.
“Hmm, it’s getting annoying these days. I wonder how husband is doing,” Livia sighed.
…
In Lumina Crystalis Classroom:
“Hey, Max, heard that your father is on a trial?” Ella asked.
“Yes, how do you know?”
“My sister told me.”
“We watched your father; he is doing great!” Ella said, thinking of how cool Maximus’s father is.
“What? You can watch my father’s trial?” Max was shocked.
Originally, they were going to cheer on Maximus and watch his trial.
But since it’s a Golden Gate trial, you can’t watch it even if you have money.
You need some authorization comparable to a special student to be able to view it.
“Of course, you must know how awesome my sister is.”
“So you can watch it?” Max still didn’t believe it.
His brother and sister also came near, hoping to hear some news about their father.
It’s been more than a week since they last heard from their father.
“Yes.”
“Can we watch it?” Liam chimed in.
“Uh, I don’t know,”
After all, it’s her sister’s; she just watched from the side.
“Oh, sigh,” Max and the others sighed.
“Then can you tell us about our father?”
“Sure…”
…
In the Mechanical Golden Gate trial,
A week later, Wanderer emptied the Tier 5 mine.
“Hey, it really took a long time to mine a Tier 5 vein,” Andrew sighed.
“Hmm, now we can start working,” Maximus said.
“Wanderer, input the missions I compiled earlier.”
[Wanderer: As ordered, host.]
“It’s time to put the Shadow Hunters Guild members to work,” he murmured.
…
More than a year later, the mechanical vehicle upgrades were complete.
“It’s finally done!”
“Hurray, I won’t work anymore!”
“Finally, I can rest!”
“Damn, freedom!”
A bunch of members howled in excitement, looking at the domineering mechanical vehicle.
After a week of free time, Maximus began to assign mandatory missions.
This was the start of hell.
They needed to work at least 18 hours a day, 125 hours a week.
They were more tired than dogs.
It’s not that they couldn’t leave; after all, the oath only said to never betray Maximus in the trial.
It’s that they were assisting a master at work.
Maximus’s crazy operation of turning decay into magic was a huge inspiration for them.
This is a rare opportunity that they may never see in life, so how can they just quit?
Anyway, all of them were suffering, so it’s fair.
“Ahem!” Maximus coughed, looking at the people kneeling and celebrating in various postures.
“Is it that hard?” Maximus asked with a smile.
“Leader, it’s fucking hard.”
“Hahaha, after all, it’s for our survival.” Maximus smiled.
Although he could slow down the pace, he didn’t.
This is also a form of tempering.
“Leader, what do we do now?”
“Of course, we work more.”
“What?!?”
