Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction

Chapter 167: Who Can Enter the Mechanical City?

The location of the Mechanical City was somewhat special in the northern region. There was a city less than 30km away from the Mechanical City that had been abandoned by humans. In the early days of the global mutation of creatures, this city had once been an industrial city that manufactured cars. Its name was Detroit.

After the city of Detroit was abandoned by humans, a new organization appeared more than 300 years ago. This organization was very good at creating all kinds of strange machinery. They occupied the city of Detroit and only moved to a nearby plain a few decades later. Then, they named it the Mechanical City.

As for the reason for their relocation, there were many different theories. The most popular one was that there was a legendary incident.

A strange incident would always occur in the ruins of the old city in Detroit. For example, they would see the illusion of a certain huge creature and hear the roar of beasts. This kind of illusion would suddenly disappear after they left the old site in Detroit.

No matter what the reason was, the current Mechanical City had been standing there for more than 200 years. After such a long period of construction and improvement, the current Mechanical City had become the largest city in the northern region.

In the southeast of the Mechanical City was a mountain range over 3,000 meters above the sea. From the height of the mountain range, one could see the entirety of the city.

At this moment, Peter was standing on the high ground of the mountain range and looking in the direction of the Mechanical City. He was thinking about how to infiltrate the city.

The defense system of the Mechanical City was very complete and much stronger than that of New York Base City. It was almost impossible to enter the city as a human. One could only pass the test at the entrance if they were a modified mechanical warrior.

No. 0 operated the smart mecha and stayed beside Peter. Instead of looking in the direction of the Mechanical City, he hacked into the Skynet to find relevant information. He wanted to find a way for Peter to infiltrate the Mechanical City.

It did not take long for No. 0 to exit the Skynet. He made an exaggerated move and looked at Peter beside him.

“Master, I’ve found a way to allow you to enter the Mechanical City.”

Peter was still wondering how to enter the Mechanical City when he heard that No. 0 had found a way to enter the city. Thus, he looked at No. 0 with anticipation.

“Master, I’ve discovered an interesting phenomenon on the Skynet. As long as it’s a mecha-type object, it does not have to undergo a test to enter the Mechanical City. Only the modified mechanical creatures will be tested.”

Peter understood what No. 0 meant, but he still didn’t know what method No. 0 had thought of.

“No. 0, just tell me the method. There’s no need to explain the process.”

As a smart body, No. 0 had always imitated the way humans thought. However, this might not be a good thing sometimes. No. 0’s current behaviour was one example.

“Master, the method I have thought of is also very simple. As long as I modify the smart mecha for you to hide inside, you can enter the Mechanical City.”

The method proposed by No. 0 made Peter’s eyes light up. This method could avoid the detection of the Mechanical City. As for what would happen after entering the city, that was something Peter needed to solve himself.

“This method works. How long will it take for you to modify the smart mecha?”

If No. 0 took too long, Peter might have to give up on this method. After all, he couldn’t waste too much time here now.

No. 0 operated his mecha and made exaggerated movements. This was a sign that No. 0 was beginning to grow excited.

“Master, it won’t take long to modify the smart mecha. If I do it myself, it will only take more than two hours.”

Two hours was beyond Peter’s expectations. After all, there were many sophisticated components inside the smart mecha. It was still very difficult to remove the components in a short period of time and ensure that there was enough space for Peter, who was 2.6 meters tall.

Since No. 0 was so confident, Peter decided to let him start modifying the smart mecha first and see what the final outcome would be.

Two hours was not a long time. Thus, Peter used the time No. 0 had spent modifying the smart mecha to categorize the recent bizarre events. This way, he could better sort out his thoughts and make modifications to his plan.

Winter was coming. If Peter couldn’t return to New York Base City by Christmas, the Federal Election Act would remove Callie from the list of candidates.

Furthermore, according to the secret information sent by Professor Eugene, after David escaped the base city, a portion of his forces remained in New York Base City, waiting for David to return at any time. This was a result Peter did not want to see.

It had been more than half a month since Peter left the base city. However, the mysterious warrior he was looking for had never appeared.

Over the past half month, Peter had extracted the Thunder God genes twice, and the extraction progress had reached 3.86%. There was still a huge gap from activating the 20% progress required to activate the Thunder God skill.

Peter had to find the mysterious warrior and obtain the secret art that could forcibly increase the progress of genetic extraction.

However, this situation also depended on his luck. Peter had missed the clues several times in a row. If No. 0 had not been able to hack into Skynet, he would have completely lost the clues.

Now, the problem Peter had to face was to enter the Mechanical City and find the two mutants who knew the whereabouts of the mysterious warrior.

If he could not find the two people after entering the Mechanical City this time, Peter estimated that he could only stay in the city for at most a day.

In other words, regardless of whether Peter had found his target after entering the city, he had to leave the city the day after tomorrow and return to New York Base City.

When Peter had left the base city, his team consisted of five people. Other than Barker, there were three other girls. One of them, a girl named Elise, had shown unusual behavior after leaving the base city. This had always given him a headache.

If Elise was really a secret agent planted in the Genetics College by the Mechanical City, and Peter had coincidentally included Elise in his team this time, this was something he could not accept.

Peter couldn’t decide how to solve the problem of Elise now. It would be easy to simply kill her, but Peter was a very rational person. He wouldn’t kill someone without real evidence.

Two hours later, No. 0’s excited voice sounded beside Peter.

“Master, the smart mecha has been modified.”

As No. 0’s excited voice sounded, a modified smart mecha appeared beside Peter.

The modified smart mecha looked like the most common mecha in the Mechanical City. No. 0 even referenced the mechas in the Mechanical City and faked two sets of firearms systems for the smart mecha. If one looked at its appearance alone, it was very difficult to differentiate this smart mecha from real mechas.
