Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 180: Big eater

Ye Zhongming used the Enchanting Technique.

… Ineffective.

Sweat appeared from his forehead.

Ineffective?

This was something that had never happened before.

Under what situation would enchant be ineffective? That happened when one repeatedly enchanted something with the same material. But this explosive mechanic was a new robot battle pet so why would it be ineffective?

The ghost metal was definitely at a high level and it was worthy of the explosive mechanic.

Where was the problem?

Ghost metal had an expiration date? impossible.

Ye Zhongming panicked and tossed it into the Gate of Sacrifice. He was reluctant to use such a good thing to sacrifice, after all, he risked his life to get it from the Chain Prisoner. Every piece that he used would mean that there would be one less piece and he might not have a chance to bump into that big fellow anymore. Even if he did, that fellow was probably level five or six now and it would be able to crush him with one hand.

The ghost metal was sacrificed and the change was huge. The white line that represented energy level increased by a huge amount and it was now around an eighth of the entire gem.

Ye Zhongming pouted and thought about using ghost metal to fill the gem up.

Ye Zhongming was unsure of the item that he would get once the Gate of Sacrifice was full. He would have to use most of his ghost metal and if the item he got was less valuable then it would be a huge loss.

Since Gate of Sacrifice recognised the ghost metal, that meant that the enchanting failed not because of the material but because of the explosive mechanic.

Ye Zhongming looked around and studied for a long time. He flipped this 100-kilogram metal ball over and noticed that there were three holes that formed a triangle.

Chisel hole?

Ye Zhongming’s eyes lit up!

A skill of the Glory Smith that he neglected was the Chisel Technique.

Out of the five big skills, this was the one that he didn’t use.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to use it but it was rare that he faced such an equipment.

It wasn’t as if one could just cut a hole to use it. The technique allowed the equipment to get some stats from the item that you chiseled. It was an energy transfer process and it was as complicated as an organ transfer. One needed to be perfectly connected to the equipment.

So. There were only a few ways to chisel a piece of equipment. One was that the equipment had holes itself. The other was that the smith had the ability to make a hole. The last method would be to use a specific artifact which was a precious one-time item.

Ye Zhongming didn’t use it before because he didn’t have the ability to do so.

Now he noticed that the explosive mechanic actually had three holes which made him so excited that he wanted to whistle.

Chiseling was really precious, survivors treated each one as a small upgrade. Equipment with the holes was a little stronger than their original level so one could tell how many benefits such a thing brought.

Enchanting didn’t work on the explosive mechanic probably because it was the problem of the super technology equipment itself. But since one door was closed, another would open. This fellow could actually be a target for chiseling.

Ye Zhongming didn’t hesitate to chisel the ghost metal into one hole.

The explosive mechanic shone and then it turned black.

Naturally, not anything could be placed into the hole. Only gems and metal could be used. From this angle, this meant that the ghost metal was really strong as it could be chiseled.

After he gained one point of familiarity, much information appeared in his mind. He closed his eyes to feel it. A moment later, he was finally sure of what was going on with the explosive mechanic.

“Initial Explosive Mechanic (Weak Grade).”

Maybe because of the ghost metal, the explosive mechanic actually had a prefix. It was even one that filled one with anticipation.

“Attack form 1, line cannon (Unlocked), needs at least 1 energy unit (Level 1, fire once. Strength, 15PA, distance, 50 meters. Speed 0. 1 time/second.)”

“Attack form 2, flying bullet cannon (Unlocked), needs at least 10 energy units (Level 1, fire five times. Strength, 5PA, distance, 100 meters. Speed 1 time/second.)”

“Attack form 3, lightning cannon (Unlocked), needs at least 100 energy unit (Level 1, fire once. Strength, 20PA, distance, 70 meters. Covers 9m^2. Speed 0.2 times/second.)”

“Attack form 4, Light Blade Cannon (Unlocked), needs at least 1000 energy unit (Level 1, fire once. Strength, 50PA, distance, 200 meters. Covers 20 m^2. Speed 0.1 time/second.)”

“Time to fire before cooldown, 2 times. Cooldown length, 30 hours.”

“Durability: 200, recovery depends on energy injected. 1 durability= 100 units of energy.”

“Energy required to unlock attack form 2- 1 million energy. Attack form 3- 5 million energy units. Attack form 4- 10 million.”

“Level up method- blueprint: Explosive Mechanic (Basic); Blueprint: Explosive Mechanic (Strong); Blueprint: Explosive Mechanic (Good); Blueprint: Explosive Mechanic (Elite).”

Ye Zhongming grasped all of this information. While they gave him a lot of hope, he realised that he still had a long path to go before he could become a good helper.

Just two points alone. One was the energy needed to unlock. The second firing form needed 1 million energy units which were 1 million level 1 crystals. That was 10000 level two crystals.

10 thousand level two crystals, that represented 10 thousand level two lifeforms!

Even if one used level three crystals, that would be 100.

How many did he have now? 15…

He used his life to exchange for it. He was a long way away from reaching the second form.

The second point was the way to upgrade the explosive mechanic. Each level needed one blueprint. Others might not know but he knew how hard it was to get a blueprint. Not to mention how rare they are, you might not be able to meet the one you needed. The chances of that were lower than spinning a wheel.

One could imagine that once the explosive mechanic became elite grade, this thing would become extremely strong. It could even threaten the strongest experts.

But to even get there, just thinking about the five blueprints made him cry.

The two items he got from this adventurer all ate crystals. No matter how much money he had it was still not enough.

Ye Zhongming recalled something.

Of course, he could only grumble to himself. If he told others this, they would curse at him.

Give it to me then!

Ye Zhongming was much more confident after being sure of what he got this time. No matter how much he dissed the items but he wouldn’t deny that they were really strong. He didn’t know what the PA meant and how strong they were, but he knew that if he used it well, his own combat strength would increase by several folds.

Ye Zhongming walked out of the room after packing up and came to the room with the Iron Zombie.

This puppet made using a person that was about to die was of great use during the battle. Her body which was stronger than evolved helped to block many hits. At the crucial moment, she even protected Liang Chuyin. Without her, Liang Chuyin wouldn’t have been able to use Cleansing Dew on Shengyuan. That would have been fatal and the plan might have failed.

This was a helpful puppet.

Ye Zhongming looked at the puppet whose eyes were open but now he had no connection with it. He removed its clothes and saw a wound that stretched from the collarbone down to the hip. As Park Xiuying tried to clean it up, the wound didn’t open up and was just wrapped in bandage. Ye Zhongming looked at it but saw that it wasn’t healing.

Her limbs also had different levels of injuries but they were not as serious as this one.

Ye Zhongming looked at its head at the part on its left side that was caved in. If it was a human, they would have died long ago.

Strictly speaking, this puppet was already dead.

Once such a puppet lost mental connection with the person that crafted them, they would be recognised as destroyed. But Park Xiuying insisted on bringing her back so Ye Zhongming agreed.

But Ye Zhongming did that to take care of her emotions and not because he had a way to treat them.

But now, he really had some idea.

He took out the heart from the Heavy Armor Sword Skeleton. The soul pearl.

He removed the bandage and the wound started to rip apart. Iron Zombie’s twin peaks moved towards the sides like her body was being sliced into two.

Ye Zhongming took one look and started to pay attention to what was inside.

The puppet wasn’t a human, it wasn’t a complete human. Its empty organs were proof. Only its heart looked similar to that of a human.

There was a wound on its heart and that hit totally avoided her body to strike the heart.

Ye Zhongming held the soul pearl and shoved it into her heart.
