Chapter 397 - 150: Titan Mechanical Institute_4



Leonard Churchill was rather indifferent about it all.

Once finished, the thirty of them began to filter into the twisted light gate.

The surroundings changed abruptly, and they found themselves in a dimly lit corridor.

Enlightenment also appeared at the same time.

“You have entered the ‘1981 Titan Mechanical Research Institute”‘

“Current disaster level: C”

“Mortality rate for this difficulty: 37-5°/o”

“Space Exploration Progress: 39.1°/°”

“Keyword: Squad Peace Mode”

“Clue: For some unknown reason, pollution leaked from the city’s secret underground laboratory, causing tens of thousands of humans in several nearby city blocks to mutate into monsters

“Current Mission: You and your teammates are investigators sent to investigate the laboratory accident. You need to close the first-floor exit of the laboratory to prevent further pollution leakage; killing monsters will earn you extra reward at settlement”

Leonard Churchill glanced at Enlightenment and saw it was almost identical to the information he had, nothing worth paying extra attention to.

The only thing that set this Alternate Dimension apart from the previous ones was the “peace mode”.

Just as the words implied.

That is to say, in this space, teammates cannot kill each other.

This would prevent a lot of teammates who kill to steal black equipment.

But Leonard Churchill didn’t see it that way.

You can’t kill a teammate.

But there’s a lot of room for maneuver.

Inspecting the surroundings, as expected, this should be one of the three landing points.

The thirty people would divide into three teams, each with ten people, and each team would close one of the three exits on the first floor of the lab.

Quite luckily, he and Seven Brown were in the same team.

However, the others didn’t consider themselves as fortunate.

A man with a hooked nose and a mechanical arm looked at the team’s configuration and exclaimed, “What’s going on? Why are there so many apprentices in our team? Not even a single Second Order Card Master?!” This time, the four Second Orders were divided into three teams. Theoretically, at least each team should have one Second Order.

But strangely, they don’t have one in their team!

There are only three First Tier card masters, with the remaining seven all apprentices!

What’s more, all the apprentices are loose practitioner apprentices with obviously poor equipment.

The guy with the hooked nose was utterly bewildered.

Normally, although the team allocation is random, typically the three teams are evenly matched, with no significant disparity.

But the current configuration was clearly wrong.

Eagle-hooked nose, being a First Order Card Master himself, looked at Leonard Churchill and Seven Brown in the team. His eyelid twitched as he thought of something and asked, “You two… did you bring some powerful mechanical equipment?”

It’s the only explanation.

Only if there are card masters in the team that are much above the average standard,

Seven Brown glanced at Leonard and then said, “Hmm. I’m a Mechanic, I brought some high-powered ammunition.”

The hawk-nosed man’s eye twitched violently as he heard this, but he didn t say anything.

However, his expression clearly showed his despair regarding this distribution. The Mechanic’s ammunition indeed counts as a part of the strength, but the restrictions are also significant if the main body is too weak.

If they encounter a high-tier monster, without a Second Order Card Master, the team could easily be annihilated.

This team allocation does not bode well.

The other seven apprentices also expressed their misfortune when they understood the situation.

And not just their team was surprised.

The other two teams were similarly bewildered.

Each of them had two Second Orders.

Initially, they thought they were lucky to have two Second Orders in their team.

But when they looked more closely, they found that even the apprentices were the elites of their group.

In other words, the weakest loose practitioner hunters out of the thirty were divided among the other teams.

Deputy leader Kelson was full of doubt, as were the few people around him.

After a quick analysis, they immediately concluded that in the loose practitioners who entered this time, there must be a card master with the combat power of a Second Order Card Master.

With that thought, someone immediately analyzed, “Could it be that some powerhouse from other hostile forces sneaked into our adventure team this time?”

Usually, there are very few outstanding combatants among the loose practitioner hunters.

Only the elites cultivated by certain large powers would be so.

The recent construction of the two New Cities is in full swing, and they are also in competition with each other.

Also, the four major members of the Federation and major nobles have been acting secretly as well.

Hearing this, Kelson let out a sigh of relief: “It doesn’t matter. It’s better to have the powerhouse. It happens to fit Young Master Kak’s command to put priority in clearing this Alternate Dimension. The intelligence says this 1981 institute is researching a special kind of Ancient Mechanical Battle Armor Power Core, which can support super heavy mech armor in combat. If we could get it, it’s definitely the key technology to change the current mechanical structure…Our task this time is to get the information about the third floor of the Underground City out, with powerhouses coming in to crack it later…

“But according to our intelligence, there are no survivors after entering the third floor…and based on the assessment of space experts, this 1981 Institute may have a hidden storyline exceeding A-rank. If we rashly progress, I’m afraid…”

“It’s fine, I have a top-secret piece of information – the third floor of this Institute has a ‘Safe House’. As long as we can get to the third floor, the probability of surviving is quite high. And it will be much easier if we can use bombs. This time we brought enough Demon-breaking Bombs, which should allow us to clean up those monsters on the second floor with little loss.”

“Hmm.”

With that, the group of people began to walk toward the depth of the institute.
