Chapter 332 Goblin Laboratory

The goblin laboratory is the most high-end scientific research institution in Clockwork City, a place that specializes in alchemy.

This kind of important place is naturally extremely guarded, but Mu You has the ability to disguise, so it is not difficult to sneak in.

Now that his needs for weapon accessories are basically settled, Mu You is ready to go to this so-called laboratory.

But before he had time to move, a prompt popped up in the game.

[You saw a mechanical beetle running towards your feet along the gap in the ground, and climbed up your shoulder along the leg bones of the mecha. 】

[You scouting beetle has reported to you a piece of news that you may need. 】

[It learned from the conversation of two old goblin workers that the 'clockwork clock tower' built 800 years ago is located in the center of the city and is responsible for the timekeeping work of the whole city. 】

[Because of the special significance of the clock tower to the clockwork city, if you want to keep the time accurate for many years, you need an extremely precise and wear-resistant main gear.At that time, the alchemy level of the goblins was not enough to manufacture such precise accessories. It is said that in order to build the clock tower, the chief designer had to place a precious "golden gear" in the core mechanism of the clock tower...]

"Oh?"

Time flies, back to before stepping on the yellow line, and immediately ordered the character to cancel following.

After reading it, Mu You understood that this thing is actually the owner of this laboratory, a 'secretary' robot specially built for himself, to handle various daily chores for it, so that it can immerse itself in research with peace of mind.

Detecting the Sand Spider Nest, this is a detection device that Mu You accidentally found in Clockwork City. It is an epic alchemy prop. After activation, it can immediately produce 160 mechanical sand spiders. It exists for one hour, and each one has Super climbing, jumping and scouting abilities.

[Almighty Assistant Robot: Great alchemist Barney Vader specially built a personal assistant mobile phone armor for himself, which can take care of daily life, serve tea and water, transport supplies, convey instructions, and carve precision accessories and other auxiliary tasks.At the same time, it has a certain combat ability, is equipped with an automatic counterattack device and a chaotic circuit, and can be used as a personal guard at critical moments. It is also the only mechanical body that is qualified to freely enter and exit the core work room. 】

The rules here are strict and strict, but it is not seamless, just like just now, didn't two robots enter the door without any hindrance?
As long as there is a mechanical body that can enter, then he has a chance to mix in.

[You saw an assistant robot walking out of the workshop with a list of materials in hand, without staying in the laboratory, and went straight to the exit outside the hall...]

Mu You hurriedly manipulated the characters to follow.

[Mechanical sand spiders spewed out of you, along the cracks in the floor, and quickly passed the cordon in front of the workshop. 】

[The assistant robot was unscathed, and took the opportunity to activate the alarm fireworks.A gorgeous firework soars into the sky and explodes over the city...]

Sure enough, no matter how tight the defense system is, it is difficult to avoid this basic loophole.

[U-7 flying reconnaissance robot...]

[Automatic enemy detection circuit: A type of robot combat circuit, a legendary alchemy accessory.The long-range attack triggered by the battle robot can be equipped with the function of automatically searching for the enemy. After the attack is fired, the attack that does not lock the target will automatically chase the random enemy within the range. 】

When these sand spiders leave their nests, they leave behind an invisible spider silk, which can extend up to 2000 meters away. Any information detected by the sand spiders along the way will be reported to the main body in real time through the silk thread.

[You saw the only small golden light and shadow among the countless gray and black gears. 】

[You follow the robot to a workshop deep in the laboratory.Seeing the two robots pushing the door, you hurried to follow, but as soon as you stepped into the yellow line in front of the door, the goblin guarding the door immediately scolded you: "What are you doing, why did the cleaning robot come here?"]

【You swing the dust removal brush on your forearm to clean up the dust along the road, and gradually approach the gate of the base. 】

[Wait for a moment, you see the assistant robot just now, pushing a cart of ore out of the warehouse...]

Mu You could only wait patiently.

Mu You simply stayed at the door and waited with peace of mind.

[The two combat robots immediately raised their weapons towards you, and they are about to kill you...]

【Your sand spiders are all dead...】

The golden gear will talk about it later, let's go to the goblin laboratory first.

Mu You's eyes lit up, he didn't expect the rumors 800 years ago to be true!
No wonder gears with eternal characteristics are so precious.

"coming!"

When the floor was almost washed into mirrors by him, he finally got a new reminder.

[You see two humanoid robots in front of you carefully carrying a glass instrument full of frost. In the middle of the ice and snow inside the instrument, there is a metal sheet the size of a baby's fist lying quietly. The surface of the sheet is shining with a faint golden light. . 】

【You are walking towards the central street of Clockwork City...】

This is easy to handle, he only needs to kill an assistant robot and pretend to be the other party, and he can easily mix into it.

This time, Mu You could only personally assassinate him. Fortunately, he already had the capital now.

He was about to go to the goblin laboratory, but he didn't expect the news of the golden gear to come just in time.

[This is a large academic base covering an area of ​​more than 100 acres. It is one of the areas with the strongest armed forces in the entire clockwork city. There are a large number of heavily armed guard robots patrolling outside, and there are various types of monitoring on the walls of the base. device. 】

"I see……"

Seeing that the item was sent away, Mu You hurriedly manipulated the characters to follow. This item made him jealous and he had to get it.

[You stay in front of the wall, standing still, pretending to stop charging, and quietly observe the workshop. 】

[The next moment, your freezing energy shot out, but it hit the wrong direction, freezing the wall next to it into an ice wall. 】

As a result, before reading it for a while, a golden word suddenly flashed in the text, which was extremely eye-catching.

This unexpected battle caught Mu You by surprise. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, and when he saw something was wrong, he pressed the watch immediately.

[The Clockwork Clock Tower is the core timekeeping device of the entire Clockwork City and one of the most important buildings in the city.All the goblins and machines in the city use its time as the basis for their daily work and life.Once the time of the clock tower is out of order, the whole city may fall into chaos and stop. 】

[M-9 guard robot...]

[You switch to a disguised form: a cleaning robot. 】

Those monitoring devices on the fence monitor the approach of living things, but the mechanical body is not within their jurisdiction. After all, who would have thought that a mechanical body would have the consciousness of a living person?
And the cleaning robots all over the city are one of the most easily overlooked mechanical bodies. Even a place as important as the goblin laboratory cannot lack the existence of such low-level hard workers.

Mu You pressed the watch again and returned to the calmness just now, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

[You saw two robots carefully carrying the refrigeration equipment, transporting this precious battle circuit to the depths of the hall...]

[Relying on the camouflage form, you successfully blended into the interior of the laboratory. 】

"Really!"

[You have come to the front of the goblin laboratory. 】

The first-generation conversion device made by the old goblin before was a test product for pathfinding, just to verify the feasibility of the idea, and replaced it with a lower one.But for formal production, if you want to maintain the stability of the conversion device under high pressure for a long time, you must have something like a golden gear.

[You are hiding in the blind spot below the clock tower, and you have activated 'Detect Sand Spider Nest'. 】

Next, Mu You continued to clean in the hall while waiting for the movement of the distant workshop.

Mu You hurriedly went back according to the table.

From time to time, robots would come in and out, all of the same type.

[The cluster of densely meshed gears could not prevent the sand spiders from sneaking in. One of the sand spiders finally reached the core of the bell tower after going through many obstacles. 】

[The goblin in front of the door glanced at you, didn't pay too much attention, and continued to play with the instrument in his hand. 】

【You followed the assistant robot from a distance and left the goblin laboratory, walking all the way to the alchemy warehouse on the west side, apparently to extract materials. 】

The bell tower mechanism, which needs to maintain a high degree of precision, uses a golden gear, which is reasonable in principle.

【You stopped in front of the entrance cordon, hurriedly changed direction, continued to work as if nothing had happened, and silently moved away from the vicinity. 】

[Golden Gear: A gear with the characteristic of 'eternal', which cannot be damaged or worn out in any way. 】

Mu You looked at the text description, thought for a while, and clicked on the sand spider nest on the panel.

This thing is an accessory specially designed for the long-term stable operation of advanced instruments, and there are probably not many in the entire clockwork city.

All long-range attacks are equipped with a tracking function, which is too powerful, especially for things like mechs, it is equivalent to all bullets, artillery, and missiles.
Among other things, let's just say that the two shotguns he just bought before were originally range attack weapons, which are not practical when fighting a single target, but with this circuit, the two guns have a total of 400 energy bullets per second. Poured on a target, the damage is absolutely explosive.

But this time, we can no longer use the routine of using the overload pen to fire, because this thing has a special identity, and if something happens and is seen by other robots, it will definitely be notified to the goblin alchemist in the laboratory, so as to arouse its vigilance.

After thinking about it, Mu You decided to go to the bell tower first to confirm whether the information is true or not.

It's a pity that most assistant robots just wander around the laboratory after going out, carrying some things, or handing over materials to others.

[In the main building of the laboratory, there are many cleaning robots like you, scattered around, busy with their own work, you are mixed in, not conspicuous. 】

From this description, Mu You guessed that this great alchemist Barney might be a senior dead house. He stayed in the workshop all year round and never went out. All the work that needed to go out was done by these assistant robots.

As a result, he hadn't taken two steps before he was stopped by someone.

[Under the violent gravitational force, the assistant robot flies towards you uncontrollably. 】

[You crossed the security line, the surrounding guard robots are doing as usual, continuing to patrol, turning a blind eye to you...]

Mu You was dumbfounded, and automatically searched for the enemy, there is such a thing?

"Backtrack!"

Mu You carefully observed the information of this robot.

In this way, the sources of the two mission props are all found.

In the past few days, Mu You walked around Clockwork City, encountered countless mechas of all kinds on the way, and knew the naming rules of various mechas of the Goblin tribe.

……

[Suddenly a piercing siren sounded in the hall: "Warning, an unknown mechanical body is trying to invade!" Along with the siren, countless small cannon muzzles automatically appeared on the iron wall of the studio.In the next second, a large amount of flames spewed out, hitting every sand spider in the ground fissure with precision. 】

"Holy place..."

Chaos effect, causing the target to miss with a 75% chance, this is the first time he has seen this miraculous effect!

However, this clock tower is the timekeeping device of the entire Clockwork City. Once the clock tower breaks, all robots' concept of time will be disordered, so even if they know something is inside, they can't rush to do it, otherwise they will expose themselves in advance.

【You suffered 341 points of damage, the waist armor was damaged, and the exoskeleton was damaged.Because of the effect of the opponent's 'chaos loop', you enter a 'chaos' state, and all attacks have a 75% probability of hitting random directions. 】

[The group of sand spiders quickly climbed to the top of the clock tower, and penetrated through the gaps in the surrounding walls. A series of complicated and precise mechanical clock structures constantly emerge in your mind...]

Seeing the text prompting the other party to enter the warehouse, Mu You manipulated the character to hide in a nearby corner where no one was around. At the same time, he removed the two devices and replaced them with a strong magnetic attractor.

[Mechanical spiders the size of gravel crawled out of the spider's nest, quickly crossed the ground, and crawled towards the top of the clock tower...]

[S-12 goblin manned airship...]

As expected of a top-secret place, the defense of this place is several grades higher than that of the outside... However, the more strictly guarded the place is, the more likely there are good things hidden!

Just go out and find a chance to kill the other party.

"Backtracking."

Mu You sneaked around through the perspective of the sweeping robot, looking for something good.

However, the models displayed in this building are all mechas that he has never seen before, and they are often robots of similar models, one or two generations taller, and their functions are also better than the previous generation robots. More or less improved.

[You stick to the wall and sweep past, while taking the opportunity to observe the layout of the building.You see a variety of mecha models on display racks around the building, most of them in an unfinished state. 】

[Mysterious workshop: The unmarked workshop located in the depths of the goblin laboratory is the core of the entire laboratory. Most of the first-generation models of alchemy technology in the history of the goblins were born here. The holy land of the most cutting-edge wisdom crystallization of alchemy! 】

[In the cleaning robot's program, there is a rule that it will never step into the cordon.The goblin noticed your abnormal behavior, and gestured to the two guard robots beside you to take you down. 】

[You have come to the tower of the 'Clockwork Clock Tower'. 】

Mu You stared blankly.

But after all, it happened more than 800 years ago, and the specific facts have yet to be verified.

[When the assistant robot passed the alley in front of you, you suddenly launched a strong magnetic attraction to it. 】

[You took out the old-fashioned freezing device, but before you fired the freezing energy, a counter-attack warhead automatically appeared on the shoulder armor of the assistant robot, rushing towards your waist at high speed. 】

Look at the word 'Chaos Circuit' again, it's clearly a purple epic!
After Mu You was surprised, he was surprised. The goblin engineer was really extraordinary. He could use this level of circuits at will. With so many assistant robots under his command, he was quite arrogant. This also strengthened his determination to enter the mysterious workshop. .

This chaotic circuit is very strong. Fortunately, this kind of probabilistic thing is naturally overwhelmed by the pocket watch. Mu You simply went back twice and successfully exempted from this effect.

[The frost energy hit the assistant robot smoothly, and the opponent fell into a frozen state...]

After freezing, the rest will be easy to deal with. This assistant robot is not a professional combat robot. Mu You will use the powerful weapons he acquired recently in turn, and then rush to clear the life of the opponent before the freeze is lifted.
