Xia Chujian carefully picked up A Wù, cradling it in the palm of her mechanical arm. She clucked her tongue twice and said, "Alright, I can take you back now."
"A Wù, can you sleep for a while? I'll just pretend you fainted, and then I'll pick you up, okay?"
As Xia Chujian spoke, she removed the bit from A Wù's mouth.
She planned to officially acknowledge A Wù after returning, and then put the bit back on it.
This was to prevent it from accidentally speaking in front of so many people, which would make it impossible for her to hide.
A Wù nodded, looking aggrieved.
Xia Chujian stroked its soft back, and a slight electric current flowed from Xia Chujian's mechanical arm to A Wù's body.
A Wù's small body trembled, and it quickly closed its eyes.
Seven Lù said, "Master, A Wù has fainted."
Xia Chujian breathed a sigh of relief, holding A Wù with one hand, and looked around, saying, "I want to take the Alligator Dragon hide back with me too."
Seven Lù said, "Of course you should take it back! Alligator Dragon hide is an excellent material for making top-level bulletproof vests!"
Xia Chujian quickly asked, "Can it also block radiation?"
Seven Lù affirmed, "Of course! It's the most natural and most powerful radiation-proof material!"
Xia Chujian confirmed, "Is it even higher grade than Farre's hide?"
Seven Lu said, "Farre's hide isn't as good at blocking radiation as Alligator Dragon hide, and its bulletproof performance is also a grade lower."
"But Farre's hide has a characteristic that Alligator Dragon hide doesn't have."
Xia Chujian quickly asked, "What kind of performance?"
Seven Lu said, "If Farre's hide is made into a helmet, it can prevent Mental Strength attacks below Rank 3S."
Xia Chujian gasped, "There's Rank 3S Mental Strength?! Who is so powerful?!"
Seven Lù said, "...That's nothing. Marshal Huo's Mental Strength level is above Rank 3S."
Xia Chujian: "..."
"So a helmet made of Farre's hide can't defend against Marshal Huo's Mental Strength attacks?"
Seven Lù's childish voice was very puzzled: "Master, Marshal Huo is your superior. Why would he use Mental Strength to attack you?"
Xia Chujian shrugged and said, "It's hard to say, what if he doesn't like me one day?"
"I'm not a Gene Evolver. If I can't even defend against his Mental Strength, I can't beat him."
Seven Lù spoke frankly, "Master, even if you could defend against Marshal Huo's Mental Strength, you still couldn't beat him at your current level."
Xia Chujian said, "My Shao Siming Mecha has been upgraded, and I still can't beat him?"
Seven Lù said, "The Shao Siming Mecha has now been upgraded to the peak of the intermediate level."
"Only when it surpasses the intermediate level next time and rises to the advanced level will it be able to fight Marshal Huo."
Xia Chujian clenched her fist: "I must upgrade my Shao Siming Mecha to the advanced level!"
Seven Lù: "Go for it, Master!"
The two, one human and one Mechanical Intelligence, felt a burning fighting spirit.
Xia Chujian then looked at the four complete Alligator Dragon hides floating on the water and pondered, "How am I going to take them away?"
"These are my spoils of war, I don't want to hand them over."
Seven Lù was silent for a while and said, "Master, there are too many Alligator Dragon hides. Seven Lù can't handle them all, so I can only take them back as they are."
That meant she couldn't do it without anyone knowing...
Xia Chujian sighed, feeling that the bulletproof and radiation-proof suits for her family had flown away! Seven Lù then said, "Master, according to the rules of the Beichen Empire Military, the commanding officer has the first right to distribute spoils of war."
"Don't worry, most of the Alligator Dragon hide will belong to you."
Xia Chujian was happy again.
Although she didn't personally kill the Alligator Dragon, she did stumble upon it by accident.
Why should she share the Alligator Dragon skin she got by luck with others?
Besides, this was A Wù's.
She was the "sister" A Wù had personally acknowledged! Thinking of this, Xia Chujian looked around the sea again and said, "This is the Alligator Dragon's nest, right? Let's not let go of the remaining little Alligator Dragons either."
"Since we've already disturbed them, let's eradicate them completely!"
Those little Alligator Dragons had been chasing her earlier, and she hadn't even gotten her revenge yet!
Seven Lù completely agreed, saying, "Master, do it! These little Alligator Dragons are so scared they can't move, all trembling in their nests in the sea!"
Xia Chujian said regretfully, "In nests in the sea? How am I supposed to hit them? Can you think of a way to make them float up?"
Seven Lù quickly said, "Master, wait a moment. Seven Lù will collect materials from the Alligator Dragon to make a dagger for you."
Xia Chujian asked curiously, "Why use Alligator Dragon materials to make a dagger?"
Seven Lù said, "Master didn't bring suitable underwater weapons. Although those guns can be used underwater, their power will be greatly reduced."
"Those Alligator Dragons are especially fast in the water, I'm afraid Master's guns will be of limited use."
"So it's better to use a melee weapon."
"Ordinary melee weapons can't harm Alligator Dragons. The most suitable way to harm them is with a melee weapon made from their ancestors' teeth. That's the only way to kill them with one strike!"
Xia Chujian grinned, "Kill with one strike? I like it! Seven Lù, hurry up!"
As she spoke, Xia Chujian's mechanical arm had already reached the head of the Alligator Dragon skin under her feet, and drilled into its mouth.
Seven Lù's childish voice explained garrulously, "Master, what A Wù absorbed should be the energy that the golden giant egg transformed from the Alligator Dragon's internal organs and flesh."
"So although the Alligator Dragon is empty inside, its teeth and outer skin are still perfectly preserved."
As Seven Lù spoke, Xia Chujian's mechanical arm crackled and snapped off all the Alligator Dragon's teeth.
When Xia Chujian looked, there were more than a hundred pointed stones, each a meter high! They were white and gleaming with a jade-like luster.
Xia Chujian was astonished, "These are the Alligator Dragon's teeth?! So big! So many!"
Seven Lù said, "There won't be so much once they're ground into powder."
With that, Seven Lù began to process the Alligator Dragon's teeth.
Of course, it was using Xia Chujian's Shao Siming Mecha's mechanical arm.
If anyone else were here at this time, they would think Xia Chujian was processing these teeth.
In fact, Xia Chujian was just an observer.
She watched as these teeth, like pointed stones each a meter high, were all ground into powder by Seven Lù.
Then it went to break off the teeth of the other three Alligator Dragon ancestors, repeating the process.
In just ten minutes, four piles of snow-white tooth powder had accumulated in front of Xia Chujian.
Then Seven Lù began to forge the daggers.
Seven Lù didn't know what process it was using, but it needed a lot of energy to forge the daggers.
If it relied solely on the Energy Block originally equipped on Xia Chujian's Shao Siming Mecha, she was afraid that forging just one dagger would exhaust her Mecha's Energy Block.
But because Seven Lù had upgraded Xia Chujian's Mecha with A Wù's metal eggshell, Xia Chujian's current Mecha could automatically absorb nuclear radiation from the air and convert it into energy.
And in a natural environment like Senze Star, it was like catching a mouse and putting it in a rice jar.
Endless energy was within her reach.
Therefore, Seven Lù had no worries and forged freely.
Twenty minutes later, four melee weapons of different lengths were placed in front of Xia Chujian.
And those four piles of snow-white tooth powder were only a little bit left, about seven or eight pounds.
Xia Chujian happily put the tooth powder into the freezer bag in her backpack.
Then she looked at the four melee weapons of different lengths in front of her and asked Seven Lù, "The shortest one, fifteen centimeters, is the length of a real dagger."
"What are the other three?"
Seven Lù said, "This one-foot-long thing is also a dagger! It's retractable and can be completely hidden in its sheath."
"This three-foot-long Qingfeng is a sword. The master can play with it."
"And this one, four feet five inches long, with blades on both sides and blood grooves, is a bayonet. It can be stored in the master's gun case and paired with the master's firearms for bayonet fighting later!"
Xia Chujian's mouth twitched.
She was a sniper, not a Gene Evolver.
She was a master of long-range combat, but a glass cannon in close combat. Why would she engage in bayonet fighting? Xia Chujian didn't argue with Seven Lù. She just picked up the one-foot-long retractable dagger and said, "I'll use this one. Let's go down."
She carefully put down the still unconscious A Wù.
But Seven Lù said, "Master, you must take A Wù with you!"
Xia Chujian was stunned. "Take A Wù underwater? Why?"
Seven Lù said matter-of-factly, "If we don't take it, what if it runs away?"
"Seven Lù doesn't know which kind of ancient Exotic Beast A Wù's Gene chain belongs to, so it doesn't know what special abilities it has."
"What if it wakes up and runs away while we're not here?"
Xia Chujian understood, but frowned and said, "A Wù is so small and doesn't have a waterproof suit. Is it convenient?"
Seven Lù's childish voice had a hint of a smile, and said, "Master, A Wù is a complete replica of an ancient Exotic Beast. Whatever characteristics the ancient Exotic Beast has, it has."
"And it has always lived on the seabed. How could it be afraid of water?"
Xia Chujian was still worried and said, "But it's unconscious now. What if it chokes on water?"
Seven Lù thought for a while and said, "Seven Lù will weave a net bag for it."
With that, Seven Lù collected some materials from the Alligator Dragon skin and quickly wove an Alligator Dragon skin net bag, hung it around Xia Chujian's neck, and then put the teacup-sized puppy, which looked like it was asleep, into it.
Xia Chujian: "..."
A tall Mecha had a net bag hanging around its neck, and in the net bag was a teacup-sized white puppy.
This look was really an eyesore.
Fortunately, no one was here, otherwise her lifelong reputation would be ruined.
Xia Chujian muttered in her heart, completely unaware that Seven Lù had secretly taken a few photos of her...
She looked down for a while, still unable to bring herself to take such a small A Wù into the water, shook her head, and said, "No, A Wù is too small and unconscious. Let's leave it here."
"If it runs away, it just means it's not meant to be with me."
Xia Chujian quickly took off A Wù along with the net bag.
Then she asked Seven Lù to wake A Wù up.
She didn't feel comfortable leaving the unconscious A Wù alone on the surface of the sea.
What if two people or Shang People came along and secretly snatched A Wù away? She would have no place to cry.
Letting it wake up, even if it was taken away, would be its own choice.
This is the first update. The second update will be at 1 p.m.
