Chapter 308: Unexpected Chipmaster
“It’s you!”
“It’s you?”
When the two met each other in Lin’s guest room, they made the same surprised sound.
“Eh? You two know each other?”
Lin, who wore her protective tech gear as always, was standing on one side with a weird look on her face. Behind her black-bordered tech glasses, her eyes scanned past Feng Luo and Digital Cat.
“Since you two know each other, this will work even better!”
Lin turned to Feng Luo and pointed at Digital Cat, who was about the same height as her. “This is the Chip Master that I helped pick from the profession guild. Though she is an adventurer, when it comes to control programs and mecha combat weapons, her understanding is very impressive. She’s enough to help you build a T-750.”
Then she put both hands in her pockets, turned around, and walked towards the lab’s exit.
“Since you know each other, mingle. I’m going to prepare the new potion. Oh, that’s right. Feng, remember to leave 100 ml of your blood sample. I’m going to try creating a new number nine perfect Enhancement Potion!”
“Alright.” Hearing that, Feng Luo gave a bitter smile.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf he extracted too much blood within 15 days in the game, his max HP would drop. However, it was a good thing that 100ml wouldn’t make much difference; it was just a decrease of 100 HP. It did not really affect his total, which exceeded 6,500.
However, at that moment, Digital Cat looked as if she had just remembered something.
“Perfect Enhancement Potion?” she asked through the player channel, puzzled. Then something seemed to click. “The W-virus Enhancement Potion! So the W-virus Enhancement Potion that was sold at a sky-high price at the large-scale auction yesterday in Storm City was made by this young NPC.”
“This means that she isn’t just a Chip Master, but also a Virology and Pharmaceutics Master? That means you’re also the mysterious player who put the potion up for sale!”
Smart! Feng Luo’s brow moved. He never would have imagined that Digital Cat would be able to deduce so much from Lin’s one sentence.
However, Feng Luo didn’t feel like there was a need to be too secretive on the matter.
After all, if they wanted to, an organization like the Hound Organization would be able to gather information on Lin without too much difficulty! However, Feng Luo still wanted to change the topic. action
“Let’s focus on the main issue! I’m sure by now, you know the reason why I’m looking for a Chip Master. Can you tell me how confident you are in replicating the T-750 through these chips, and how long will it take?” Feng Luo asked.
“If we create it based on the complete replication process in the chip, it’ll take 15 days, at most, to create prototypes that can be experimented on. But if I follow your requirements to remove and redesign the undecipherable parts in the chip programming, due to the level restrictions of my Chip and Mecha Mastery, I’ll need more than a month.”
Digital Cat looked very serious, and a professional gaze similar to Lin’s came from behind the silver tech glasses.
“Level restrictions? What’s your level now?” Feng Luo frowned.
The T-750 should only be Excellent or Rare Grade. I’m sure an Expert Level Chip Master could create it. Is Digital Cat’s life profession not yet at the Expert Level?
“Advanced 77% Chip Master. Intermediate 10% Mechanist...” answered Digital Cat honestly.
“Advanced and Intermediate...” Feng Luo’s frown deepened.
Isn’t that way too low?!
Her Chip Master level is alright, but a Mechanist is needed to manufacture a combat mecha. Going from intermediate to advanced would take how long? More than a month? It should take a lot more than a month to get her Mechanist level up, right?
The probability of creating a robot with the same strength as the T-750 Hunter was already pretty low. Now, given Digital Cat’s situation, the Terminator storyline might have already started by the time the robot was finished! By then, there would no longer be a market advantage!
But Lin picked her. There’s no way Lin would make such a huge mistake, right? Feng Luo wondered.
“Indeed, I’m an Advanced Chip Master at 77% and an Intermediate Mechanist at 10%... But it’s been less than a month since I became a Chip Master, and in regards to Mechanist, it’s my second profession!”
“Apart from that, I’m completely confident that I’ll be able to break through and reach Expert Level Chip Master and Advanced Level Mechanist in one month!”
Digital Cat seemed to have detected Feng Luo’s thoughts, and she spoke to reassure him. When she spoke, a confident glow could clearly be seen flashing underneath her silvery tech glasses!
“Within a month... Second profession?” Feng Luo stared at the young girl seriously.
He finally understood why Lin had chosen Digital Cat!
It seemed that Digital Cat was also a genius, much like Lin. Moreover, she had the suitable Chip Master and Mechanist life professions (Mechanists and Doctors were all half life and half combat professions)!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn War, leveling life professions was a lot different than in other games. The traditional way of gathering experience through production was completely useless!
Players needed to learn, memorize, test, and really understand and gain the ability to control and produce, and once mastery reached a certain level, one’s profession level could be increased!
For example, Feng Luo had spent around four months to specifically develop his Ammunition Manufacturer and Gun Mechanic life professions to the Expert level.
Even getting his Gun Mechanic profession to the Advanced level took him around two months, and now, Digital Cat had already brought her Chip Master profession close to the Expert level in less than a month!
Although Feng Luo trained both life professions at the same time, one thing was still clear; the young girl in front of him was definitely gifted when it came to the Chip Master profession.
Or one could say, in terms of the hidden attribute of Legendary Grade gear, that Digital Cat and the Chip Master profession were highly compatible!
Of course, the Mechanist, which was both a life and combat profession, was also highly compatible with Digital Cat!
Because it was a second profession, she should have only obtained the Mechanist profession around two days ago, and within that time, her familiarity of the profession had already surpassed the Beginner level.
If her rate of progress was publicly known, it would be incredibly embarrassing and awkward for many of the wealthy Mechanists, who had started the profession half a year ago when the server started, but were still stuck in the Intermediate or Advanced Level.
All these self-proclaimed “veterans” couldn’t even compare against a young girl. They might as well find a rock and crush themselves to death with it in shame!
“Well, that sounds good to me. I’m happy to choose you for the T-750 research mission. Shall we discuss some of the commercial details?” Feng Luo nodded to Digital Cat.
Although both of them had changed into the Special Agent profession, and they had even met before that, they weren’t well-acquainted with each other. That was why Feng Luo still had to test the waters when he spoke.
However, after hearing Feng Luo speak, Digital Cat’s eyes flashed and she said, “No, please hold on a second. I have two questions I need to ask.”
