âClass monitor, hereâs what Iâm thinking, this mecha is on the ship, and the Legion Commander gave you the ship, so shouldnât everything on it be yours?â
Rhein said with a grin.
âYour explanation is a bit forced, but itâs not out of the question.
Forget it, since this mecha hasnât been taken away, letâs just keep it here.
Should any issues arise later, weâll talk about it then.
Itâs been declared anyway.â
Su Ming didnât want to dwell on it any longer, he really did need this mecha.
âAlright then, what do we do next?â
Rhein asked excitedly.
âFind a senior mechanic to repair the ship and the mecha.â
âBut where do we find one?â
âThatâs easy, we can just apply to the Legion.â
Su Ming lifted his wristband, summoned the function interface, found the request interface, and sent his requirements to the Legion.
About ten seconds later, a notification popped up on the wristband.
âRespectful Su Ming Officer!
Your request has been accepted, Master Acala, the mechanic, will head to Wind Moving in one hour to negotiate with you; if missed, a reappointment is necessaryâŠ.â
Su Ming read the message and pondered for a moment before speaking.
âRhein, go move my Slaughter Mecha from the hangar onto the ship.â
âAlright, Iâm on it.â
Rhein immediately turned and left.
âŠ
One hour later.
Su Ming and the others were waiting at the entryway of Wind Moving.
At this time, three figures were approaching from a distance; the one in the lead was a bald, long-bearded, lively old man followed by a man and a woman.
âHello, Master Acala, thank you for coming all this way.â
Su Ming hurriedly went forward, extending his hand politely.
âOfficer Su, youâre too kind; this is part of my job after all.
Is that the ship you need fixing behind you?â
Acala extended his hand enthusiastically to shake hands with Su Ming.
âYes.â
âThen, please show me to this vessel.â
âNo problem.â
Su Ming then led Master Acala aboard.
Several hours later.
Inside the central control room of Wind Moving, Master Acala, the mechanic, connected his portable computer to the damaged central console and read some data about the ship.
Su Ming and Rhein quietly stood on the side watching.
After a good while, Acala disconnected the connection line and said to Su Ming with a smile,
âOfficer Su Ming, youâre very lucky, this Wind Moving has excellent performance and the damages are minor, quite easy to repair.â
âThatâs great, so how much will it cost to fix this ship?â
âNot much, just 15 billion Federation Coins.â
Master Acala threw a price out directly at Su Ming.
Su Ming twitched at the price but still asked calmly.
âMaster Acala, could we make the price a bit more reasonable?â
âOfficer, rest assured!
As a mechanic of the Thirteenth Legion, I definitely wonât overcharge you.
If you find issues with the price later, you can file a complaint, but Iâm afraid I donât negotiate.â
Acala replied with a smile.
âAlright, but I have another matter.â
Having heard Acalaâs stance, Su Ming knew there was no room for negotiation on the price.
âPlease speak.â
âDo you fix mechas?â
âOfficer, you donât have to doubt my skills; aside from Xi Guang Laboratory, my technical skills are the best among the accompanying mechanics, even the Fourth Generation machines are no problem for me.â
Acala assured Su Ming directly.
âThen please follow me!â
Su Ming led Master Acala away.
A short while later, Su Ming took them to the Wind Moving hangar.
There they saw the Slaughter Mecha and Blood Falcon Mecha placed next to each other.
âThis Third Generation Mecha·Slaughterer is my mecha, and this Fourth Generation Mecha·Blood Falcon is my spoils of war.â
Su Ming gave a brief introduction.
âHm, you want to repair this Blood Falcon?
It doesnât seem to be too badly damaged.â
Acala stepped up to the Blood Falcon and asked.
âIâm considering it, but I also have another idea.â
Su Ming said thoughtfully.
âTell me!â
âI currently use the Third Generation Mecha·Slaughterer; this mecha is very reliable, but its performance is still somewhat lacking, especially missing the NOCY·Super Neural Device.
So, I was thinking, can we transfer the Blood Falconâs super neural device onto the Slaughter Mecha?â
âOfficer, I wouldnât advise you to do that.â
Acala immediately rejected Su Mingâs suggestion.
âWhy?â
âWhile your Slaughter is indeed excellent in performance, it is after all a Third Generation Mecha with limited size.
There would be no room for the super neural device.
Even if we force it in, it wouldnât align well with other aspects of the mecha, and the effect would likely be greatly diminished.â
âWhat would you suggest then?â
Su Ming asked humbly.
âI have two suggestions; first, you could just repair the Blood Falcon Mecha and use it.
Second, you disassemble the Slaughterer, take the good parts to modify this Blood Falcon Mecha, which would greatly enhance its performance.â
Acala provided his professional opinion.
After some hesitation, Su Ming finally spoke up.
âThen I choose the second option.â
âNo problem.â
âHow much would it cost for such a modification?â
âI have three modification plans you can choose from: a basic modification for 10 billion Federation Coins, a medium modification for 20 billion Federation Coins, and a deluxe modification for 30 billion Federation Coins!â
Acala looked at Su Ming with an almost smiling expression.
Su Ming took a sharp breath at Acalaâs words; the price was indeed steep.
So, he probed.
âMaster Acala, what are the differences between these three modifications?â
âOfficer Su Ming, the differences are significant.
Of course, you donât have to doubt my word.
You might not have heard of me, but let me tell you, Iâm a graduate of the Rain Capital·Amensk College with five years of experience.
Though I canât compare to the big shots from Imperial Court Academy of five years, I have been in this field for over a hundred years, modified every sort of antique, let alone your mecha.â
