Chapter 163 Upper Node, Evolution Completed, Level 7 City

This production node is divided into two floors?

Listening to the system prompt, Lu Cheng's heart moved.

So that's it, no wonder there are no other buildings in the room.

Will there be any gains after reaching the upper floor?

Thinking in his heart, he looked at the metal pillar.

The only building on the lower floor of this production node should be the dome elevator.

When touched, the metal pillar really responded.

"Metal life authority detected, dome elevator activated."

The sound of mechanical operation sounded inside the giant pillar, and the metal skin was pulled up like a rolling door, revealing the elevator car inside.

The interior space of this elevator car is very large, and it looks like it is used to transport goods.

"Take the dome elevator to reach the upper floor of the production node. Metal life can take it, and mechanical creations must take it with you."

A mechanical broadcast sound came from inside the elevator.

This metal pillar is indeed a dome elevator... Lu Cheng nodded slightly.

He has eaten the spiritual fruit produced by the bronze tree seedlings, and has the authority of metal life, so he can take it directly.

However, in this case, there is no need to rush up.

Lu Cheng looked around.

Apart from the dome elevator, there are no other buildings in the production node, only robot wreckage on the ground.

Most of these robot wreckages are incomplete, but some of them are relatively intact.

Then when the metal flower spirit completes its evolution, can we extract any information from it?

He glanced at the metal flower spirit.

At this time, the light shrouding the metal flower spirit has become brighter and is undergoing the final shaping.

Retracting his gaze, Lu Cheng nodded slightly.

It looks like it will take only a few minutes to complete the evolution.

There are countless robot wreckages on this ground, and there are hundreds of intact ones. It is definitely worth waiting!

While waiting, Lu Cheng looked at the marks on the ground.

These β-shaped marks are exactly the same as the ones he saw before, but they did not indicate the direction.

Lu Cheng took out the statue of the God of Luck and shook it at the marks, but there was no reaction.

"Is it because of the God's Breath Crystal?"

Lu Cheng's mind turned.

The divine breath crystal can destroy divine power in a directional manner. It is embedded here, most likely to destroy the power in this mark.

This may be the reason why the mark cannot point out the direction again.

However, it does not affect him much.

According to the God of Luck's diary, although he did not explore the Toya ruins completely, he also encountered a level 100 monster, and there must be more than one mark left.

As long as he continues to explore, he will find it sooner or later.

He thought in his heart, and suddenly, a series of metallic lights lit up from his shoulders.

Looking at the light, Lu Cheng was happy.

This is the evolution of the metal flower spirit!

Sure enough, not long after, the system prompt sounded.

[Ding, the metal flower spirit evolved successfully! Current evolution times: 2 times. ]

[The metal flower spirit absorbed the mimic AI mechanical center and obtained a new feature column! ]

Listening to the system prompt, Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows.

Absorbing the mechanical center, there is such a benefit?

This is a pleasant surprise.

Under binding, the improvement of the metal flower spirit is equivalent to his own improvement.

Lu Cheng's mind turned.

Things like Endless Absorption that have infinite growth properties are extremely rare. Looking back at the 20 years of the Cataclysm, there have been only a few. The upgrade of acquiring new properties is probably also limited in the number of times.

I just don't know, how many times can this upgrade be capped?

Thinking in his mind, he looked at the metal flower spirit.

Under the shadow of the rays of light, he could vaguely see the shape of the metal flower spirit constantly changing.

At the same time, the properties of the metal flower spirit also appeared in front of him.

…

[Metal Flower Spirit]

[Level: Level 3 (equivalent to the settlement hub, upgrade to gain functional gains)]

[Health: 68000/68000]

[Metal Flower Spirit can read the characteristics from the absorbed mechanical core, and the number of characteristics that can be read is the same as the level. ]

[After reading, it can be replaced at most once. 】

…

“Not bad!”

After checking, Lu Cheng was delighted.

After completing the second evolution, the attributes of the metal flower spirit have been improved a lot!

The blood volume alone has increased by another 20,000 points.

The upper limit of 68,000 blood is almost half of his.

In addition, the original functions have also been improved.

Now, the blessing of the metal flower spirit can already bless him with 300 points of all attributes.

With the bonus coefficient of his current job transfer, 300 points of physique means a blood limit of 27,000, which is quite terrifying!

As for the other functions.

Although there is no numerical reflection, judging from the increase in the blessing function, the improvement must be quite large.

So it seems that the metal flower spirit has grown quite fast!

Moreover, the improvement of these original functions is only secondary.

For him, the most important thing is still these two new features!

The bonus of the mimic armor is quite good.

As a mage, the cooldown reduction attribute is definitely not too much.

In particular, he also has the talent of endless absorption, and the skill cooldown is more important than the spell attack power.

Although the bonus is only 5% now, it can be continuously improved!

"I don't know, what is the upper limit of this cooldown reduction bonus?"

If the bonus is high enough, it will be comfortable.

The improvement in combat power brought to him by the cooldown reduction is the most intuitive.

Now, his fireball cooldown is a little over 2 seconds, and he can fire up to 30 in one minute.

If he can reduce the cooldown to one second, the number of fireballs he can fire can be doubled!

And...

The faster the skill cooldown, the faster he can stack the passive skill!

Lu Cheng felt happy and glanced at the third feature.

The level of the metal flower spirit is the same as the settlement hub, which means that as the settlement is gradually upgraded, the metal flower spirit will continue to unlock new feature columns!

Looking at this, Lu Cheng couldn't help but feel happy.

It seems that the growth space of the metal flower spirit is very large!

Then, he began to think.

In the previous life, the highest level of human city was level 7, and there was only one, which was built in the 18th year of the catastrophe.

Level 7 is not the upper limit of the city, but it is the upper limit of resources. The upgrade resources of the level 8 city are too scarce, and they were not gathered until the arrival of the Tongue Puller civilization.

But at the moment, Settlement No. 1024 has not been upgraded to a city, so it is too early to consider this.

As his combat power gradually improved, the upgrade resources he obtained alone would be enough to upgrade the city to level 4 or even level 5.

By then, the metal flower spirit would have five characteristic slots, which would be stronger than many bosses!

Thinking in his heart, Lu Cheng was very pleased.

On his shoulder, the metal flower spirit gradually regained consciousness.

"Master, I'm fine! Didn't I delay anything?"

The metal flower spirit spoke, with a hint of nervousness in its joy, fearing that the evolution would slow down the progress.

"No delay."

Lu Cheng smiled, "Now there is a place where you are needed."

As he said that, he pointed around, "Try to see if you can extract information from these mechanical wreckages."
