As soon as Qi Yuan returned to the steel chariot, he saw Liao standing at the door and chatting with a ragged robot.

Qi Yuan was originally a little strange. Although this practice of giving up all the body of the carbon-based monkey and uploading consciousness into the steel can is considered to be the final destination of mechanics, few mechanics below level four can do this.

After all, full-body mechanical transformation is a huge expense. Most wilderness hunters cannot collect the renovation costs at all, and later maintenance is also a considerable expense. Even if they are as powerful as devils, they often hover on the verge of bankruptcy.

However, after getting closer, Qi Yuan realized that the robot seemed familiar.

Although the robot in front of me was ragged and the simulated skin on his head was damaged in large areas, the data center still showed an 84.21% similarity with a face in my memory.

Luo Shiyi looked at Qi Yuan and said tentatively:

"Qi Yuan, Master Luo asked me to come to you!"

"You are Luo Shiyi!"

Listening to this familiar voice, Qi Yuan finally confirmed the other party's identity. When he was in Black Stone Town, he guessed that Luo Shiyi had undergone mechanical transformation and that Luo Kui's mechanical arms were taken away by him.

But unexpectedly, Luo Shiyi was actually a completely mechanical body. He just didn't know whether he was a mechanic who uploaded human consciousness or a robot with mechanical consciousness born based on mechanical logic.

Luo Shiyi's appearance was somewhat beyond Qi Yuan's expectations.

When Master Luo was obviously unwilling to leave Black Stone Town, Qi Yuan was about to ask Master Luo where he was, and when Luo Shiyi said, "Master Luo is almost dead!"

"Are you dying?"

Qi Yuan was slightly stunned, but seeing the scars on Luo Shiyi's body, Qi Yuan quickly remembered what happened: Heishi Town was in danger, and the two of them escaped by chance after a fierce battle. Master Luo was seriously injured in the battle, and finally came to the steel chariot and asked for help from him.

But why didn't he go to find Master Qu?

Su Li had already greeted Master Qu in advance, didn’t Master Luo know about this?

"Where is Master Luo, take me there!" Qi Yuan said.

When he was in Heishi Town, Master Luo was pretty good to him, although he tricked him into Xu Xiaoshuang's affairs.

"Don't worry." Liao shouted at the two of them.

"I have sent someone to deliver the food, and I should have eaten it."

Almost dying? Can you still eat?

Qi Yuan looked at Luo Shiyi and seemed a little puzzled.

"He was not seriously injured and dying, but he almost starved to death after not eating for several days!" Liao said with a smile.

Facing Qi Yuan's inquiring gaze, Luo Shiyi did not say anything, but nodded, which was confirmed by Liao's statement.

"He said he knew you before, but I didn't believe it, so I secretly sent someone to take a look. Seeing that Master Luo was almost starving, I sent someone to send some food to him."

Qi Yuan was silent for a while before saying:

"Send him some more wine."

"I'll make arrangements right away." Liao said.

There were many people who enjoyed wine in the old days, and the sickle was the best among them.

After arranging food and drinks, Qi Yuan said to Luo Shiyi: "I went to see Leader Ling You first, and then came to visit Master Luo!"

Luo Shi nodded at a glance. He had only a few days to arrive at the Iron Chariot. He didn't know what the name Liao meant, but from the active greetings of the guards and passing hunters at the door, it was also possible to tell that Liao was definitely not an ordinary ability person, but a person who was definitely a high-powered person in the Iron Chariot.

Such a person actually prepared food and drink for Master Luo just because Qi Yuan said casually, and Qi Yuan seemed to be at ease.

This has indirectly proved Qi Yuan's status in the steel chariot.

Although Qi Yuan was not weak when he was in Blackstone Town, he was just a first-level ability person.

In the steel chariot, there are almost all third-level abilities everywhere, and no one can have such a status.

Could it be that Qi Yuan has advanced to the third level?

But how long has it been since he left Blackstone Town?

Luo Shiyi was shocked and puzzled. When he returned to his residence, he saw a young man who was bored playing with guns squatting at the door. Judging from the shape of the two guns, Luo Shiyi was sure that it was mechanical armed.

A strong man who controls mechanical arms will actually squat at the door to watch the door!

Luo Shiyi suddenly felt unreal, as if everything had become a little different since he met the man named Liao, but he knew that this change was not because of himself, nor because of Master Luo, but because of Qi Yuan.

The young man who resolutely left Blackstone Town had already had a surprising position in the Iron Chariot.

Xiao Hei looked at Luo Shiyi, smiled, and asked, "Did you see Qi Yuan?"

Luo Shi nodded at a glance.

“See it.”

Xiao Hei glanced at the room and said:

"Scythe is drinking with Master Luo, and the two seem to be in good spirits."

The sickle of the same senior drunkard lived not far from here. When Master Luo unscrewed the bottle, he came over while smelling the fragrance. The two drunkards fell in love with each other, and with the common topic of Qi Yuan, they soon began to call each other brothers.

Luo Shiyi took a look at the situation inside the room and saw Master Luo blushing and an old one-armed man eating and drinking in a sea of ​​silence. He silently retreated.

"You and Qi Yuan knew each other before?"

Xiao Hei, who was familiar, came up quietly.

Luo Shi nodded at the slightest. From Qi Yuan’s attitude to the other party, he could also tell that Qi Yuan’s relationship with these people should be good, and the two started chatting quickly.

...

With dark wooden floors, light wooden seats, and simple crystal lamps hanging on the roof, Qi Yuan’s mind outlined the whole picture of this room in his mind.

The room here is far less luxurious than Situ and Xu Kui's, but it gives people a simple and warm feeling. It does not look like the residence of a shelter leader, but rather it is more like an ordinary family residence in the old era.

There was a white porcelain cup on the table, a strong cup of coffee was soaked, emitting a scent of heat, and the aroma of coffee filled the entire room.

Ling You was not in the room, but Qi Yuan did not dare to use area detection rashly to avoid causing trouble for himself. No one knew whether the fourth-level ability could sense the existence of area detection.

After sending Qi Yuan in, Liao turned around and left, and closed the door.

Qi Yuan became a little nervous inexplicably. Although he had already had the peak third-level combat power, his strength was obviously not enough in front of Ling You.

What is Ling You looking for him?

Is it because of those missing star energy stones?

Or that monster girl?

Or, that woman with a black veil - You?

Just as Qi Yuan was thinking about it, a blue lightning flashed suddenly. Qi Yuan felt a flash of light before his eyes and saw that there was one more person in the room.

Ling You, who had changed into casual clothes, wore a relatively loose white shirt on the upper body, a pair of black suit pants on the lower body, and a pair of high-heeled black leather shoes on the lower body, just like a casual urban beauty from the old era.

Coupled with the interior of this room, Qi Yuan suddenly had an illusion that he seemed to have returned to his original world, and everything before was just a dream.

"Qu Shanhai said, are you going to Heigang Shelter?"

Ling You's cold voice interrupted Qi Yuan's thoughts.

Qi Yuan nodded.

"I've had some trouble, and it's possible to solve it only by entering the Black Steel Shelter."

Ling You glanced at Qi Yuan and said that the trouble that needed to enter the shelter must have come from the shelter.

As a little shrimp hang out in the wilderness, Qi Yuan not only caused the fourth-level monster suspected of energy body, but also caused trouble in the shelter. Not to mention anything else, this ability to cause trouble surprised her.

"The registration threshold for the recruitment assessment of Black Steel Shelter is level 3. Now there is only one month before the recruitment assessment. Do you have a way to advance to level 3 within one month?"

I didn't! Qi Yuan silently returned to the poem in his heart.

But soon, Qi Yuan remembered that there was a fourth-level foodie living in his energy heart. If it could recover its strength, it seemed that it would be impossible for him to advance to the third level within one month.

But these cannot be disclosed to anyone!

"Someone will help me register for the recruitment assessment of the Biology and Mechanical Laboratory!" Qi Yuan said.

The recruitment of Black Steel Shelter is not a unified recruitment of the entire shelter, but is recruited by the departments that need manpower, and the time is set on the same day.

Because many departments of Black Steel Shelter are not short of staff, those departments rarely recruit wild hunters to enter. Only the wilderness survey and exploration department, which is unwilling to join, will attract some wild hunters from surrounding gathering sites every year due to insufficient staff.

The same is true for biology and mechanical laboratories, which often recruit some wilderness hunters, but most of the time they recruit volunteers who act as experimental materials and occasionally assistant researchers.

Since Tan Qiu has spoken, there will definitely be a recruitment position that suits you. In the old days, it is to arrange a carrot pit for yourself.

But that's all that Tan Qiu can do, because her authority can give recruitment positions, but it cannot directly determine who can occupy this carrot pit.

Inside the Heigang Shelter, there is a department dedicated to recruiting personnel. They will be responsible for the investigation, assessment and recruitment of recruited personnel, and they need to be responsible for the reliability of recruited personnel.

Once there is any problem with the recruited personnel, the recruiter needs to bear joint and several liability, so this department is very cautious when recruiting personnel. A Level 4 researcher can influence them to a certain extent, but the impact is very limited. For example, Feng Qian can make Shi Qu lose the election through his own influence, but he absolutely has no way to let someone pass the assessment directly.

If you want to enter the shelter, you must pass the scheduled assessment process.

The recruitment of biology and machinery laboratories has relatively strict assessment requirements. Various assessment projects are simply a welded iron gate for wilderness hunters who have not received systematic training. Unless they are gifted and capable, it is difficult for others to enter the shelter through this way.

However, it is also the only recruitment department that does not require strength for the recruited person.

For Qi Yuan, all he needed was an opportunity to enter the biology and mechanical research laboratory.

After entering the laboratory, Qi Yuan was confident that with regional detection, energy control, and data center, he could get rid of Tan Qiu and Feng Gan's clamping in a short period of time and have enough self-protection.
