#219 - Chapter 219 Master's Reminder
"(Naga language) Your appraisal results are out."
The female Naga walked in and said to Wu Wei.
"However, Lord, may I take a moment of your time?"
"What do you want?"
However, before Wu Wei could respond, the Fallen Angel Lilith spoke first.
Standing a head taller than Wu Wei, she stood behind him, staring intently at the Naga with her crimson eyes.
Clearly, having not yet successfully turned Wu Wei into her private possession, she would not accept anyone competing with her.
However, the Naga was not annoyed by Lilith's display.
She maintained her professional smile and explained to Wu Wei.
"Because the sample you provided is quite special."
"So Master Silas from our research institute would like to meet with you."
"Of course, if you don't have time, you can refuse."
"Master Silas wants to see me?"
Wu Wei was surprised to hear this.
In his impression, Silas, the eccentric technology master, rarely saw outsiders.
"I can."
"My time is quite ample."
Wu Wei said.
He was curious about what was so special about the technological samples he provided that would make the other party want to meet him.
"Very well, please follow me."
The Naga nodded, gestured for Wu Wei to follow, and then added.
"Oh, right, your translating servant doesn't need to come this time."
With that, the Naga glanced provocatively at Lilith and said in the common language of the Lord Era.
"As Master Silas's guest, I can serve as your translator."
After speaking, the Naga led Wu Wei out of the lounge, leaving the Fallen Angel Lilith alone in the room.
A few minutes later, Wu Wei, led by the Naga, successfully arrived at Master Silas's laboratory.
However, as soon as he entered the laboratory, Wu Wei couldn't help but frown.
Because the air here had a smell that Wu Wei instinctively disliked.
The smell was like rotten meat mixed with engine oil, boiled thoroughly in a large pot, and then left to dry for three days.
However, Wu Wei was more concerned about the "new thing" he saw than the smell.
A moving "mechanical" hillock in the laboratory!
"Ah, you are the owner of this sample?"
"You're surprisingly young."
The moving mechanical hillock turned around upon hearing Wu Wei's footsteps.
Only then did Wu Wei finally see that the mechanical hillock was actually a bizarre half-mechanical, half-blood creature.
Beneath countless flickering electronic lights was a blood族 face with no expression, only half a face remaining.
The words Wu Wei had heard earlier came from under this face.
However, the sound did not come from the monster's vocal organs, but from a mechanical device hidden beneath the face.
Apart from the face, Wu Wei also noticed that the blood族's body had completely atrophied.
Furthermore, his entire body was immersed in the very center of this massive mechanical device, in a yellowish-brown translucent container.
Dense tubes ran through various parts of the atrophied body, converting his weak nerve activity into electronic signals that this massive mechanical body could accept.
This was Master Silas.
A non-pure blood, relying on these electronic devices to survive!
"Please sit, young Lord."
"To avoid wasting your time and mine, I will get straight to the point."
Master Silas said in a cold, electronic voice.
"I have identified the samples you sent."
The mechanical samples and firearms that Wu Wei had sent earlier were lying on a mechanical platform next to Silas.
However, unlike when they were sent, these mechanical samples had been completely disassembled, disassembled into countless, densely packed small parts.
"These samples belong to the ancient era before the Great Cataclysm."
"Which is what you imperial lords call the Era of Fallen Darkness."
"Furthermore, the technological level contained in this firearm and the damaged mechanical man has been identified as being at the peak of a Tier 2 civilization."
"These things can fetch a good price at the Royal Auction House."
Hearing Silas say this, Wu Wei's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
The reason for this was that Wu Wei knew he had really struck gold.
Technological creations at the peak of Tier 2 technology were very valuable in the Lord Era.
As long as he sent this firearm and the mechanical man to the auction house, it would attract a large number of technology-oriented lords to bid.
In fact, if he was lucky enough, these technological creations would be sold for several times their original price!
However, just as Wu Wei was calculating how much the ancient civilization ruins he was excavating would be worth when they were all excavated, Silas's cold mechanical voice interrupted Wu Wei's reverie.
"However, young imperial lord, may I ask you something?"
Silas, with his massive body, said.
"May I ask where you excavated these things from?"
"But don't get me wrong, I ask this question not to spy on your property, let alone spy on your territory."
"It is common for imperial lords to hide their core territories from outsiders."
"The reason I ask this is just to remind you."
"Remind?"
Hearing Silas say this, Wu Wei suddenly became puzzled.
"Remind me of what?"
Master Silas seemed to have guessed this.
His body did not move, but the countless mechanical arms behind him began to operate.
Then, under Wu Wei's gaze, one of the mechanical arms took out a small, silver-gray fragment from the disassembled mechanical body and placed it in front of Wu Wei and Silas.
"I want to remind you what kind of enemy you will encounter if you continue to excavate!"
With that, a large amount of electricity surged from Silas's arm, injecting it into the small, silver-gray fragment.
The next second, after a huge flash of electricity, the small, silver-gray fragment came to life under Wu Wei's gaze!
A vast fragment of will was rapidly awakening!
And the chaotic emotions and violent aura contained in this fragment were not inferior to any demon Wu Wei had ever seen!
