Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 61 - 58: Joining Forces

"???."

"What do you mean by ’can’t do it’?"

The manager was stunned by Su Yu’s straightforward response.

It took a while for his brain to process it, and his eyes looked at Su Yu with unconcealed astonishment and confusion.

In his view, after Su Yu learned about his situation, even if he couldn’t do it, he should at least explain it to him gently. This response was as direct as a doctor giving a death sentence to a patient, which was a bit too... cruel, wasn’t it?

Looking at the old manager, there was even a hint of grievance in his small eyes.

Su Yu also realized that his answer just now was indeed a bit hurtful.

But he had no choice.

He wished he could be more tactful.

But when Su Yu realized the true condition of the manager’s body, he tried using spiritual energy to discern the state of the mechanical parts on the manager’s body.

And the answer he got was.

These mechanical parts, though not as exaggerated in grade as his Electric Sniper Rifle.

But the quality is at least comparable to the Special Grade Intelligent Core that Nuonuo has; they are all top-grade mechanical creations.

In fact, the technological components in them are even higher than that Special Grade Intelligent Core!

With Su Yu’s current strength, it’s impossible to analyze anything.

Naturally, he couldn’t help the manager repair those parts.

But...

Su Yu looked at the manager in front of him and thought of the conditions of cooperation the manager mentioned earlier, and a gleam appeared in his eyes.

"Although I can’t help now, if there is enough time and parts supply to let me practice, as long as my Meditation Technique is improved, I can at least help you preliminarily repair some parts so that they won’t harm your body during operation."

Su Yu could see.

The wear and tear on these parts of the manager’s body were already quite astonishing.

Although the degree of the manager’s cybernetic augmentation is quite high, there is still some flesh present.

Moreover, the muscle strength contained in this part of the flesh is also at the four-star level.

It is precisely because of this tough flesh support that the manager was able to exert such top-level four-star combat power in critical battles over the years, despite the high wear and tear of the mechanical parts!

But as time passed, the wear and tear of these mechanical parts became more severe.

Consequently, not to mention protecting the manager’s flesh body when they operate.

Every time he activates his power, it might even reverse and harm the manager’s body.

Although the manager did not explicitly state.

But Su Yu could estimate.

The strength of this old man in front of him can now only reach the level of a three-star Transcendent in physical body.

"If I could provide you with some practice opportunities and mechanical parts, you could help me alleviate the damage they cause?"

Hearing Su Yu’s words.

The manager’s eyes, which originally looked disappointed, brightened again.

The significant drop in his strength is, firstly, due to the wear and tear of these mechanical parts, causing a reduction in their output.

Secondly, it is because the operation of these mechanical parts brought enormous depletion to his body.

In previous years, he could barely sustain it, but now his body can withstand only the output at an intermediate three-star level at most.

If it’s any higher.

Even if he can endure the pain. freёweɓnovel.com

His remaining flesh and blood won’t endure the mechanical pressure; at that time, the possibility of self-implosion before solving the enemy would be even greater!

Although, according to Su Yu, repairing these mechanical parts is still beyond his capabilities.

If it’s possible to reduce the depletion caused by these mechanical parts and reduce their load slightly.

It would effect a considerable restoration to the manager’s strength!

But, as excited as he was.

The manager was not some naive youth, and he quickly spotted the crux of the problem.

"I wonder how long ’enough time’ means for Mr. Su?"

The manager fixed his eyes on Su Yu intently.

"Li He’s threat is imminent, and I assume Mr. Su understands what will become of you, me, and the entire Shelter No. 73 if Li He prevails."

"Mr. Su, surely you’re not giving me an empty promise of one or two years?"

Su Yu smiled slightly at these words, didn’t keep him in suspense, and after pondering briefly, he slightly raised his hand, extended five fingers, and then clenched them into a fist.

"Let me put it this way."

"If you can get me a batch of combat-intelligent chips, old man."

"In ten days at the latest, I can show you results!"

Hearing Su Yu’s confident words.

The manager couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

After a brief hesitation, he gritted his teeth and nodded emphatically, "Alright! Since you, a young man, are so confident, I’ll take a gamble!"

"Tomorrow, Bai Hong will deliver a batch of combat-intelligent chips. If you need any more materials, you can also tell him. Within a reasonable range, he will fix it for you!"

"But in ten days, I will need you, Mr. Su, to produce satisfactory results!"

The manager said, his eyes fixated on Su Yu in front of him, trying to see through his inner thoughts.

As Su Yu heard the manager willing to provide combat-intelligent chips, only endless joy shone in his eyes.

Sensing the scrutiny in the manager’s eyes, he smiled slightly and, without saying much, softly declared, "It’s a deal!"

...

Early the next morning.

Yang Lie and his team had just opened the doors of their base when they saw Bai Hong standing outside, in the shadows at the corner, waiting unnoticed, clearly having waited for some time.

"Captain Bai, what brings you here? Please come in!"

Yang Lie and his team had an extremely good impression of Bai Hong.

In the wilderness before, had it not been for Bai Hong’s decisive stance.

It wouldn’t have been so smooth for the Ninth Squad to trade their spoils with other hunting teams.

Seeing Bai Hong arrive, Yang Lie and his team quickly greeted him warmly.

Feeling the enthusiasm of Yang Lie and the others, Bai Hong also broke into a smile.

Yet he was instructed by the manager not to attract attention, so he immediately gestured to hold Yang Lie back, "No need to be so formal, Captain Yang. I’m here to deliver something to Mr. Su on behalf of the manager."

"The manager?!"

Hearing Bai Hong’s words.

Yang Lie and the others were taken aback.

Bai Hong quickly gestured for silence, and only then did they calm down and lower their voices, "May we ask what the manager wants to deliver?"

Bai Hong didn’t waste time, directly taking out a metal box from his bosom, and skillfully unlocking the little lock on it, handed the metal safe to Yang Lie.

"Inside this box, there are fifteen combat-intelligent chip sets, which are the remuneration for the cooperation between the manager and Mr. Su."

"Captain Yang, please deliver this to Mr. Su!"
