Chapter 396 Seventh Generation: Rebellion, Deal!

The next morning.

It was just dawn.

Lu Yuan hurriedly washed up and took the early morning bus to Qiuye City.

He had been ordered to drop out of school.

The reason why he got up so early was not to go to school, but to go to the mechanical repair shop in the city.

According to the life simulation experience.

When he was expelled from school, he became a maintenance apprentice by worshipping the old man.

If he could have a job, it would also relieve the pressure at home.

After a while.

The bus arrived at the station, Lu Yuan swiped his card to get on the bus, and found a window seat at random.

As the vehicle slowly drove away from the slums, the buildings around the road began to become tall and prosperous.

There were many tall buildings and the streets were wide and clean.

Various buildings were scattered and well planned.

Most of the pedestrians coming and going on the road were well dressed and had good temperament.

Compared with Qiuye City where Lu Yuan lived, it was like two different worlds.

When he got off the car, he walked between high-rise buildings according to his memory, and finally found an inconspicuous repair shop in the corner of the city.

The shop was converted from an abandoned logistics warehouse.

Although it was dirty and dilapidated, it was very spacious, covering thousands of square meters.

There was a sign of Li Ji Repair Shop hanging right above the gate.

On the dark and sticky ground, various mechanical parts and repair tools were scattered everywhere.

But what made Lu Yuan's eyes light up was.

At the door of the repair shop, there were two steel mechas that looked like those in science fiction movies.

These two mechas were about four or five meters high, silver-gray, with smooth lines and agile bodies.

Just standing there quietly, they were like two steel fortresses, with great visual impact and oppression.

Zero mecha!

Lu Yuan recognized the models of the two mechas at a glance.

This is the most common basic mecha of the Star Alliance, with a powerful force of one against a hundred.

Ordinary people only need a little training to control the Zero Mech and easily kill an unarmed first-level warrior.

As far as Lu Yuan knows, the Zero Mech is not only widely used in the starry sky battlefield.

It is also often used to perform some dangerous tasks, or to deal with some criminals and desperate people who are more threatening.

The two mechs in front of him looked intact on the surface, but for some reason they were paralyzed.

No matter how the driver controlled it, there was no response at all.

"The core module is intact, the weapon module is intact, the power module is intact..."

A burly, spirited old man was climbing up and down the maintenance ladder with four apprentices, groping inside the mech for a long time.

But he couldn't find the problem, and he was anxious like an ant on a hot pot.

In the end, there was really no way, the old man could only bite the bullet and walk to the two drivers, saying helplessly.

"You two, old man, this is just a small shop. I really can't find what's wrong. How about you go to the mecha repair factory to check it out?"

Hearing this, the two drivers frowned immediately.

The two people, one man and one woman, looked very young.

And they were wearing standard black combat uniforms, and there was a star badge pattern painted on the left chest of the uniforms, which was obviously affiliated with the public security management system.

"Master Li, I heard that you are well-known in Qiuye City and you know all kinds of faults of the Zero Mecha."

"We are waiting to use these two mechas urgently. If you can repair them within half an hour, we can double the reward."

The tall woman suppressed the anxiety between her eyebrows and said patiently.

"This..."

Old man Li looked embarrassed, looked at the two mechas and the two young people in front of him, and fell into a dilemma.

For a small repair shop like theirs, the most important thing is reputation.

Although the mecha faults are all kinds of strange, it is common that they cannot be repaired.

But he has been in this business for decades. If he can't even find the problem, he will lose a lot of customers after the news spreads.

"Let me think about it again, both of you."

Old man Li looked worried, took out a cigarette from his pocket, squatted on the side of the road and took two puffs, thinking carefully about what went wrong.

"Sister Yao, how about we go to the black market..."

The young man looked at his companion and asked in a low voice.

"No, this is a mecha from the Public Security Bureau. Once it appears in the black market, it will easily attract the attention of others."

"Besides, those guys in the black market are ruthless. If they catch us, the consequences will only be more serious."

The tall woman refused.

At the same time.

Lu Yuan saw old man Li squatting on the side of the road smoking and hurried over.

"Master Li."

"You kid again? Go play by yourself. I don't have time to deal with you today."

Old man Li waved his hand and said unhappily.

"Master Li, I was expelled from school, and I plan to find a job here."

Lu Yuan said straight to the point.

The old man's name is Li Chifeng, but because he is stingy and has a weird temper, he is called Old Man Li.

But Lu Yuan is now asking for help, so he naturally doesn't dare to call him that.

"Do you think this is a welfare home?"

Old Man Li was stunned when he heard this, and he was angry and amused.

In this interstellar era dominated by mechas, mecha repairmen may not sound very decent.

But their status and income are many times better than those white-collar workers in suits who work from nine to five.

What's more, this is a technical job, and the older you get, the more popular it becomes. I don't know how many people in suburban neighborhoods want to be his teacher, but he doesn't agree.

Now Lu Yuan wants to be his apprentice?

Lu Yuan also knew that people speak softly and could not convince Old Man Li with just two words, so he immediately walked to the two mechas and began to inspect them carefully.

Old Man Li was startled and hurriedly threw away the cigarette butt and stopped Lu Yuan.

"Hey, hey, you kid, please don't act recklessly. This is the latest model of the Type Zero mecha. If you damage it, you won't be able to afford the compensation for screwing it all your life."

"Can you two move to talk?"

Lu Yuan observed for a moment and seemed to find something wrong. He looked at the two people and said.

The expressions of the man and woman moved slightly, and they took a deep look at Lu Yuan, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.

"Can."

The tall woman nodded and agreed to Lu Yuan's request.

"Master Li, I want a room for conversation."

Lu Yuan lowered his voice and said.

"You kid is so blabbering, what the hell are you doing?"

Old Man Li was full of doubts, but he also noticed the change in the atmosphere. After hesitating for a while, he took the three of them to an empty room inside the repair shop.

"This is my lounge, can I finally say it now?"

Old Man Li urged.

"Master Li, how about you avoid it too?"

Lu Yuan was not in a hurry to answer, but looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping before speaking to Old Man Li.

"You brat, is this your home or mine?"

Old Man Li exploded immediately.

"Master Li, I am also thinking about your safety."

"Fart, old man, I've lived for so many years and I haven't seen any storms. If you have something to say, say it. If you don't, get out of here."

Lu Yuanyuan, Old Man Li insisted again and again, shook his head helplessly, and still let him stay.

Immediately afterwards.

Lu Yuan looked at the two people and said something shocking.

"Have you ever touched the core code of the operating system?"

As soon as these words came out, the two people's expressions changed slightly.

A flash of panic suddenly flashed in the young man's eyes, as if Lu Yuan had been right.

As for the tall woman, although she hid it well, her subconsciously tense body still exposed her inner nervousness.

"You kid, don't talk nonsense."

Old Man Li glared and hurriedly stopped him.

The terminal control of the operating system is in the hands of artificial intelligence. It is impossible for normal people to modify the core code.

So he didn't think about it from the beginning.

Just seeing the performance of the two inspectors, Old Man Li also figured out something was wrong.

"Is there really something wrong with the core code?"

Old Man Li said in disbelief.

The two mechas were intact, with no faults inside or out.

The only possibility is that there is a problem with the operating system.

‘These two people are so brave that they even dare to touch the core code. No wonder they refuse to go to a regular mecha repair factory...'

Old Man Li looked at the Sheriff's Department badge on the other person's chest and seemed to understand something, his face became extremely ugly.

"We just made a mistake and accidentally touched the core code. Since this guy can see the problem, can he help us restore it to the original state?"

The tall woman showed a smile on her face and pretended to be relaxed.

But Lu Yuan has gone through many reincarnations, how sophisticated and vicious is his vision?

It was obvious at a glance that something was wrong between these two people.

What's more, they knew clearly that there was a problem with the core code, but they never reminded Old Man Li. They must have a guilty conscience!

"I can give it a try, but in terms of reward..."

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment before speaking.

The tall woman's eyes lit up, as if she had seen a savior.

"As long as you can repair these two mechas, I can give you five times, no, ten times the reward..."

Before the tall woman could finish speaking, Old Li Tou suddenly interrupted her.

"Sorry, you two, I'm just kidding."

Old man Li kept smiling and hurriedly pulled Lu Yuan out of the room.

"Boy, are you crazy? How dare you make this kind of money?"

"Do you know who they are?"

Old Man Li was anxious and angry. He glanced into the room and warned in a low voice.

"I know, they are rebels lurking in the Public Security Department."

Lu Yuan said disapprovingly, having already guessed the identities of the two people.

The Bitter Star Alliance in the world has been around for a long time.

Since the dark alien race invaded the world of immortal cultivation, the Celestial Race's control over the major star regions has also been weakened a lot.

Many forces or organizations that have long been dissatisfied with the Star Alliance have risen up one after another, trying to overthrow the rule of the Celestial Clan.

These resistance forces and organizations are all called rebels by the Star Alliance.

Who in the right mind would modify the core code of the Zero Mecha?

I'm afraid only those who rebel against the party dare to do such a thankless thing, where even the slightest carelessness can cost one's life.

"Since you know, why don't you break off the relationship with them quickly?"

Old man Li persuaded him with hatred.

Hulao Star is technologically backward, lacks resources, and is located in a remote star field.

Compared with other prosperous planets, Hulao Star is as small as a dust particle. It is an abandoned planet that is ignored within the Star Alliance.

So over the years.

Hulao Star has gradually become a gathering place for three religions and nine streams, as well as various desperadoes and rebel forces.

But the Star Alliance is not stupid. In recent years, it has directly stepped up its suppression of Hulao Star.

At least hundreds of thousands of people are executed every year for participating in the remnant party or being implicated by the resistance forces.

The governor who is now in charge of Hulao Star is a fifth-level mecha master, who is like a sea-fixing needle, capable of suppressing all evildoers.

No matter how rampant the rebel party is, it will never be able to stir up any trouble.

The reason why Old Man Li was able to live peacefully for decades was because he kept to himself, stayed away from all dangers, and did not deal with any forces.

"Am I short of money?"

"But don't worry, Mr. Li, I have my own sense of propriety and will not make fun of my own life."

Lu Yuan said helplessly.

If not forced by life, who would be willing to live a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife?

He is now a street kid who was born in the slums and was dropped out of school. He is not even qualified to serve as cannon fodder on the battlefield.

Faced with this hellish start, he could only seize this opportunity and fight.

Think of this.

Lu Yuan ignored Old Man Li's dissuasion and returned to the room again.

[Mecha Mastery] This skill brings him an all-round improvement.

In addition to mecha maintenance, it naturally also includes code knowledge.

With his current knowledge of mechas, he can easily repair any faults and problems of the Zero mecha.

"I can help you repair the core code, but in addition to the reward, I also need three first-level martial arts or combat skills."

Lu Yuan looked at the tall woman and said loudly.

Although he has many lives of practice experience, the laws of heaven and earth and the practice system are very different in each world.

Just like the Android software and Apple system in the previous life, there will be incompatibility.

Martial arts and combat skills from other worlds may not be applicable to this world of immortality.

certainly.

One Dharma can pass, all Dharmas can pass.

Although the laws of heaven and earth are different, many practice experiences can still be applied.

Lu Yuan only needs to be exposed to the martial arts knowledge in this world, and he can rise quickly based on his previous life training experience.

"If this world didn't exclude all external forces, otherwise I could easily become a warrior just by relying on the basic training methods of true spirit."

Lu Yuan thought to himself.

"impossible!"

When he heard Lu Yuan's conditions, the young man was so angry that veins jumped in his forehead, and he refused immediately without thinking.

What a joke!

Even the worst, most terrible first-level martial arts is worth millions, which is equivalent to the cost of a Type Zero mecha.

But as soon as Lu Yuan opened his mouth, he asked for three first-level martial arts and combat skills.

Doesn't this cost their lives?

"The two of you, please come back."

Lu Yuan pushed the door open and turned to leave.

"Wait, we can still talk."

The tall woman hurriedly called to Lu Yuan.

They have been out for a long time and cannot drag on any longer.

Otherwise, once the Public Security Department notices something unusual, their identities will inevitably be exposed.

at last.

After some haggling, Lu Yuan and the tall woman finally reached a deal with 50,000 star coins, a first-level martial arts and two basic combat skills.

"This intelligence brain contains the martial arts and combat skills you want."

"But remember, you can only practice it alone, and it is strictly forbidden to spread it to anyone else."

"In addition, there is an unnamed account with no password. There are 50,000 star coins in the account. You can withdraw the money at any bank."

The tall slender woman took out a watch-like smart brain and handed it to Lu Yuan, and warned her seriously.

"Don't worry, I understand the rules."

Lu Yuan's Zhinao checked it carefully and confirmed that there was no problem before putting it away and putting it away.

Half an hour later.

"Done."

Lu Yuan clapped his hands and climbed out of the cockpit.

I saw the helmets of the two Zero mechas lighting up, and the smooth lines on the surface of the mechas exuded a faint light, making them look very sci-fi.

The tall woman let out a long sigh of relief when she saw this, and the stone hanging from her throat finally fell to the ground.

"My name is Gu Yao. With your ability, you shouldn't be stuck in this small repair shop."

"That smart computer has my contact information. If you have any ideas, you can contact me at any time."

She looked at Lu Yuan and introduced herself.

Lu Yuan nodded, neither agreeing nor rejecting.

Seeing that he didn't agree, the tall woman smiled, but she didn't force him.

Then the two of them drove the Zero mecha and hurriedly left the repair shop.

Watch their backs as they leave.

Lu Yuan's eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something. (End of chapter)
