"Okay, give it a name."

This mechanical dog seemed to have really understood the words between Wang Xuan and Gu Manyao. It immediately shook its mechanical tail, made a crisp sound, and shook its head at Gu Manyao, showing a flattering look, as if hoping that Gu Manyao could give it a nice name.

Gu Manyao was so amused by it that her heart melted. She couldn't help but want to touch it with her hands. She had a look of serious thinking on her face. After thinking for a while, she said: "It's so good, let's call it Xiaoguai, okay?"

Wang Xuan didn't care about this. In his mind, it was just a machine with certain intelligence, not even a living thing. It didn't matter what it was called. He hummed and said, "Then it will be called Xiaoguai from now on."

.”

The mechanical dog opened its mouth, revealing two rows of metal teeth, just like a human grinning, but it didn't make a sound. Judging from its reaction, it was obvious that it liked the name Xiaoguai.

Gu Manyao squatted down and reached out to touch the dog's head, but it felt like a cold metal machine, not as comfortable as a real dog. This reminded her of the poodle she had raised before.

Now she is trapped here, unable to go home, and she doesn't know how much it will miss her. Her parents have always hated dogs. If she is away, will they give the dog away or abandon it?

Thinking of this, Gu Manyao became depressed.

Wang Xuan remembered hearing Gu Manyao say that she had a pet dog. Seeing her current appearance, he said, "Seeing that you like it quite a lot, I'll give it to you as a pet."

Hearing Wang Xuan say that he was a pet for the second time, Xiaoguai raised his head in dissatisfaction. The metal gears all over his body made a rotating sound, and his tail was raised high. It seemed to want to prove that it had great uses and was not just a pet.

Wang Xuan saw its body suddenly begin to change. Immediately afterwards, a message from the heart of the mechanical beast came to his mind, asking him to accept the request of the mechanical beast to merge.

"Can this mechanical dog still fuse with me?"

Wang Xuan was slightly startled, and accepted Xiaoguai's request with a trace of curiosity. Following Xiaoguai in front of him, he jumped up and threw himself into his chest. Its body was dispersing, and the heart of the mechanical beast appeared from it, tightly

It fit into the center of his chest, merged with his Goblin scales, and slowly entered his body.

Pieces of metal machinery extended along his chest, like metal ribs, bending from his chest to his back, and then concentrated on his shoulders, each forming a shrinking metal claw.

This change attracted everyone's attention.

Wang Xuan felt the heart of the mechanical beast merge with himself, and the energy of the initial state powertrain inside was absorbed by himself. The energy of the initial state powertrain became the energy he controlled.

It's just that the energy of this initial powertrain is quite special, and it has little effect on his strength, speed, and reaction capabilities. Its main function is to enhance his physical fitness and allow him to fight longer.

If his human body is compared to a car, the initial powertrain is like giving him an extra tank of fuel. Although the overall performance of the car has not improved, the car that could originally run 600 kilometers has now doubled its mileage.

It can reach more than a thousand kilometers.

As the hatchling beast grows, the higher its form evolves, the more powerful its abilities are, and the energy it needs to consume becomes more and more terrifying.

For example, when he transforms both arms into giant arms of monsters, he needs to activate the "split" and "double arms of monsters" abilities at the same time. The amount of energy consumed is more than double that of activating the giant arms of monsters before.

Although he has grown into a sub-body and his physical strength has been greatly improved compared to before, his increased physical strength cannot keep up with the increase in wear and tear. It can be said that in the form of his arms turning into giant arms of Warcraft, if he does not restrain his full strength

Fighting can quickly drain all physical energy and become exhausted.

And with the initial power assembly, it can provide him with a lot of energy for fighting, and he no longer has to worry about activating the giant arm of Warcraft that will quickly drain his physical energy, which is unimaginable for his improvement.

At this moment, he understood that this mechanical beast was simply a treasure. No wonder Lu Ge and Ma Dongcheng, after obtaining the parchment, worked hard to get down here from above, hoping to hunt down the Clown King and seize the initial power.

Assembly.

As for the metal claws above the shoulders on both sides, they are equivalent to two more offensive weapons, which can carry out short-range and long-range attacks.

But for Wang Xuan, these are just the icing on the cake, better than nothing. With enough energy to support the explosion of the giant arm of the Warcraft, he can't look down on the attacks of these two metal claws.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart and not showing it on his face, Wang Xuan lowered his head and reached out to touch the seemingly simple metal ribs on the surface of the scales on his body, and then touched the metal claws on both shoulders, which reminded him of exoskeleton armor.

"No wonder it is dissatisfied with me treating it as a pet. It turns out that the essence of this mechanical beast is a weapon used for fighting. Of course, the most important thing is the powertrain. This is too important to me."

Wang Xuan understands that the essence of this mechanical beast is a combat weapon. However, compared with ordinary swords and other weapons, the mechanical beast is more humane and intelligent. It should be created by a civilization with highly advanced technology.

Combat weapons.

With a thought, the metal ribs on the surface of the body spread out, and the heart of the mechanical beast reappeared from the chest scales. He stretched out his hand to grab it, and all the mechanical parts shrank and returned, turning into a metal heart again.

Taking Xiaoguai back, Wang Xuan put it back into his left pocket.

"Wang Xuan, was this... a combination or something?" Cheng Aiguo couldn't hide his surprise on his face.

Wang Xuan knew that everyone was watching, and there was no need to hide them. With the strength he now possesses, these people in front of him are no longer on the same level as him. He said: "This mechanical beast can combine with people to enhance defense, but it is a pity.

What’s more, it can’t increase strength, nor can it increase speed.”

As he spoke, he shook his head with a look of regret, thinking that this mechanical beast could enhance his physical strength, and the metal ribs formed could also improve his defense. As for strength and speed, they really couldn't be enhanced. He was not lying.

He didn't want to say that the mechanical beast was too precious. Although he was not afraid of the people in front of him, there was no need to show off and attract the jealousy of too many people.

Hearing what Wang Xuan said, Cheng Aiguo exclaimed, since it can't increase strength but only strengthens defense, it's just like having an extra piece of armor, then this mechanical beast is nothing strange.

Looking at Wang Xuan's appearance, it didn't look like he was lying, and with his strength, there was no need to lie. Naturally, everyone believed him, and their curiosity and desire for this mechanical beast immediately faded a lot.

At this moment, Zhao Lei, Zhang Haofei, Tie Jun and Li Haotian were piling up today's harvest. Lu Ge, Ma Dongcheng, Chen Chao and Han Bingbing didn't have many crystal scales on their bodies. The total number of crystal scales on the four of them together was only 45.

"These four guys only have so many crystal scales on their bodies, so they initially promised to give each of them twenty more crystal scales after the event was completed. Isn't that just empty talk?" Zhang Haofei looked at the four of them who only had so many crystals in total.

Scales, an incomprehensible look on his face.

Zhao Lei said: "Don't you understand this? It is estimated that they have more than 200 scales in total. They took out about 200 scales to recruit people. Each person gave ten scales. After paying 210 scales, this is what is left.

scales, and as for the promised twenty scales for each person afterwards...hey, they never thought about actually paying."

Tie Jun said slowly: "No wonder seven clowns appeared and they sat idly by. I'm afraid they wanted to use these seven clowns to kill us all first. In this way, not only did they not have to pay for a crystal scale, but after the incident was completed, they could also

Get everyone's crystal scales."

Zhao Lei said: "It's a pity that people's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. They didn't expect that they would also be killed."

As he spoke, he shook his head. Although the four people in Ma Dongcheng didn't have many crystal scales on their bodies, the people who died did. Everyone who came in with them got ten crystal scales, plus themselves.

There are more or less some on the body, and the total number of these crystal scales exceeds four hundred.

In addition to the 45 pieces carried by Ma Dongcheng, the total is 472 pieces.

With so many crystal scales piled up together, the eyelids of Cheng Aiguo, Shi Lei and the ponytailed woman twitched. It would be a lie to say they were not moved.

So many crystal scales are enough to cause a bloody storm and even turn brothers against each other, but with Wang Xuan here, no one dares to take advantage of these crystal scales.

Wang Xuan collected all these crystal scales, and adding that he originally owned 237, the number of crystal scales in his Xumi Mustard Seed space now reached an astonishing 709.

In addition to the harvest of crystal scales, there are also 12 bottles of intermediate nutrient solution and 13 pieces of second-level ordinary armor that can be used.

The four of them, Lu Ge and Ma Dongcheng, had a total of nine pieces of second-level fine equipment. Among them, Lu Ge alone had five pieces, and the three of them, Ma Dongcheng, had a total of four pieces of second-tier fine equipment.

It's just that the white python helmet and black rhinoceros knee pads on Brother Lu were severely damaged and can no longer be used. The remaining ones that can be used are the black rhinoceros armor, goblin gauntlets, and tiger claw boots.

The four pieces of second-level sophisticated equipment worn by Ma Dongcheng, Chen Chao, and Han Bingbing were not damaged, including tiger claw hand guards, white python knee pads, black tiger helmets, and blood cow boots.

All seven pieces of armor were second-level fine-quality armor. Wang Xuan chose it first and took off the rhinoceros horn helmet on his head and replaced it with a black tiger helmet.

Compared with the rhinoceros horn helmet, the black tiger helmet has slightly stronger defense, and the hearing improvement it can achieve increases from 10% to 15% of the rhinoceros horn helmet.

Replaced the inferior gauntlets with goblin gauntlets.

The material of this Goblin gauntlet is similar to that of Goblin scale armor. The surface is covered with very beautiful green scales. Each gauntlet contains an energy crystal. After wearing it, activating these two energy crystals can increase the energy level.

15% of the strength of both arms.

When he put on the goblin gauntlet, he suddenly found that the two energy crystals in the gauntlet had a faint resonance with the energy crystals contained in the goblin scales on his body. Among the three energy crystals,

The released energy is like threads, merging with each other, and the energy of these three energy crystals has been slightly improved.

At the same moment, a message appeared in his mind.

"The attributes of the Goblin suit are activated, the physical recovery speed of the Goblin Scale Armor is increased to 16%, and the power of the Goblin Gauntlet is increased to 16%."

Sensing this message, Wang Xuan touched the green scales of the gauntlet on his arm. Unexpectedly, if he wore two identical suits, the energy of the energy crystals in them would merge with each other and activate the attributes of the suit.

Additional abilities increased by 1%.

Although the increase from 15% to 16% has not obvious effect, it can only be regarded as better than nothing, but it is still better than no improvement.

"Look at this, if we get a few more Goblin suits, the effect will be improved again."

After that, he replaced the inferior knee pads with second-grade excellent white python knee pads.

The second-level exquisite white python knee pads also contain special energy crystals, which can increase the total physical energy by 15%.

Now, just like Brother Lu before him, he has a complete five-piece set of second-level sophisticated equipment.

There are still four pieces of second-level sophisticated equipment left, one each for Zhao Lei, Gu Manyao, Tie Jun and Li Haotian. Zhang Haofei had previously obtained a heart-protecting armor. This time, the four pieces of second-level sophisticated equipment were given to Zhao Lei and Gu Manyao.

, the second-level ordinary rhinoceros horn helmet was given to Zhang Haofei.

Gu Manyao chose the Tiger Claw Boots, Zhao Lei got the Blood Ox Boots, Tie Jun got the Black Rhino Armor, and Li Haotian got the Tiger Claw Gauntlet.

Among the thirteen pieces of second-level ordinary armor, Gu Manyao and Zhao Lei each received two pieces, and the remaining three duplicate pieces were collected by Wang Xuan and prepared to be left to Bai Yan and Yu Shanshan.

Everyone looked at Wang Xuan distributing equipment with envy on their faces, but they were in different teams. It was impossible for Wang Xuan to give them the second-level equipment without any reason, and they also understood that they did not have a share.

Among the people in front of me, apart from Wang Xuan, the strongest ones are Cheng Aiguo, Shi Lei and the ponytailed woman. All three of them have grown to the third form of sub-body.

Several people chatted with each other, introduced each other, and made friends. Only then did Wang Xuan know that the name of the woman with two ponytails was He Mingli, and the short man following Shi Lei was named Zhang Mingbo.

Shi Lei's eight-person team now only had him and Zhang Mingbo dead. Seeing that Wang Xuan and his team had gained so much, and that Wang Xuan's strength was even more unfathomable, he had the idea of ​​joining their team, so he knew to follow

They will definitely not suffer a loss. Zhao Lei and Gu Manyao have barely made any effort. Now each of them has two more second-level equipment and a second-level sophisticated piece of equipment. Who among them is not jealous?

But even though he had this idea, Shi Lei still hesitated. After all, once he joined, he would have to obey Wang Xuan's orders, and he didn't know whether Wang Xuan would agree. If not, it would be embarrassing.

Wang Xuan collected the seven clown masks abandoned on the ground and put them into the Xumi Mustard Seed Space. Although he didn't know what the use of these masks was, since the woman holding the snow-white sword that day brought it in with her.
