"Oh? Then I won’t hold back!"
Su Yu had been waiting for the manager’s words, and immediately listed all the various materials and parts he needed, not forgetting to ask if the manager still had any reserves of combat-specific intelligent chipsets.
The manager was as good as his word and directly opened his private vault, handing over all twenty-five combat-specific intelligent chipsets to Su Yu for him to use as he pleased!
Before leaving, Su Yu made sure to take back an arm that had been disassembled from the manager to the repair room.
If Su Yu hadn’t unlocked the Design Blueprint for the External Prosthetic Body·Thousand Hands, he might not have had the time to start repairing the manager’s prosthetics right now.
After all, the prosthetics equipped by the manager, although not comparable in grade to the rare creation, Electron Furnace.
They were still genuinely top-tier mechanical creations.
Even a simple repair would take quite a bit of time.
Although the professional and skill experience gained in return was considerable, in the same amount of time, Su Yu could make his own cavalry or help the ninth squad maintain equipment to gain similar experience.
With the Design Blueprint for the External Prosthetic Body·Thousand Hands in hand.
Before starting the creation of the Thousand Hands.
Su Yu wanted to accumulate more experience in prosthetic design.
Looking around Shelter No. 73, the only source of this experience was the prosthetic equipment on the manager, the old man’s body.
Moreover, he could also slightly increase the old man’s favorability, strengthening the alliance relationship.
It was a win-win situation, and Su Yu was naturally happy to go with the flow.
"Then we’ll rely on you a lot, Mr. Su."
The manager sincerely thanked Su Yu.
Su Yu slightly bowed in return: "Not a bother, it’s something I should do, but..."
Su Yu spoke, looking at the prosthetic machinery in his hand, filled with curiosity as he turned to the manager and voiced a long-held question on his mind.
"I have a question for you, old man. Of course, if it’s inconvenient to answer, it’s perfectly fine, just..."
"Where did all your prosthetic equipment come from, old man?"
Su Yu had been curious about this question for some time.
Possessing a Profession Panel-rated [Rare] grade Electron Furnace, as well as various prosthetic devices of at least top-tier grade.
It’s no exaggeration to say that just the old man’s set of prosthetic equipment, even if not brand new.
With just seventy to eighty percent of it being second-hand, its price would be enough to buy the entire Shelter No. 73.
Such items, let alone in these small settlements struggling to survive near the Steel Jungle.
Even a medium settlement like the Ghost Tribe is unlikely to have such high-grade items appear.
Seeing Su Yu’s puzzled expression, the manager smiled, not keeping it a secret, and pointed to the Electron Furnace that had been placed back in his chest, saying: "No need to worry, it’s not a secretive issue, and even if I tell you where it came from, no one would know."
"This set of prosthetics is equipment produced by the official workshop of the Dawn City in the old days."
"Don’t be misled by its power; in the past Dawn City, this was just standard equipment for a captain of the Dawn Guard!"
Hearing the manager’s words, Su Yu’s eyes widened.
Standard equipment that included a rare-grade power furnace?
What kind of place was this Dawn City?
And judging by the manager’s tone, it seemed that Dawn City had fallen?
"A large settlement?"
"To be precise, it was a super-large settlement, it’s just that..."
The manager spoke, his eyes reflecting a hint of nostalgia and memory, but this quickly shifted to fear, which he suppressed, waving it off: "Let’s not talk about the past, we should handle the current troubles first, so I’ll need your help, Mr. Su, to do some preliminary repairs on these old companions of mine who’ve followed me for so many years."
Su Yu nodded: "Don’t worry, old man."
Although he was still curious about how the manager went from a super settlement to the remote and desolate Shelter No. 73.
But this story appeared to be not one that could be easily shared by the old man, so he wisely did not press further.
After waiting briefly, he followed Bai Hong, who had been specifically instructed by the manager, and under Bai Hong’s guidance quickly arrived at the rescue team’s warehouse, where he extracted five large boxes of parts he might use next, and with Bai Hong’s help, returned to the base as quickly as possible.
Yang Lie and others had been waiting at the base for quite some time.
Seeing Su Yu return, they hurried to greet him with some relief in their eyes.
Although Su Yu had mentioned before leaving that he was going to see the manager to discuss acquiring additional parts support.
The ninth squad had just experienced an attack from the Night Slayer Team.
Although they had returned to the sanctuary, they were still inevitably a bit tense.
Seeing Su Yu not return for a while, they couldn’t help but let their minds wander.
Now seeing Su Yu return, bringing back five large boxes of parts.
They were both surprised and delighted.
After thanking Bai Hong for the escort, everyone brought Su Yu back to the repair room, looking at the parts Su Yu brought back, eyes filled with awe and curiosity.
"Brother Su, how did you manage to get the manager to give you so many parts?"
