Chapter 145: True manufacturing

Translated by me, edited by drpetro.

Those who enjoy advancing technologies generally tend to be the loneliest of the loners.

Before, Ye Qing was still in a meeting with several dozen people. Now that the contracts had been signed, he now had face the reality of the monsters as he tried to think of new advances.

After he finished photographing the raging mainers, the peons who went out before came back with two bats.

Yes, bats!

This was the kind of animal that would give people goosebumps; especially girls.

Ye Qing felt relieved that they were securely held onto in the peons hands, since even their screams alone were annoying enough.

Bats were some very ancient organisms, just somewhat older than dinosaurs. Their wings were truly something special, especially that skin membrane growing in between the claws. It practically looked exactly like those western dragon wings from the movies.

Although there wasn’t a real dragon, however Ye Qing was prepared to fuse one.

The raging miners had the most fitting appearance and body to represent a dragon, except they were just missing the wings. On the other hand, a bat’s wings just so happens to look like a dragon’s, thus all Ye Qing needed to do was enlarge it to match the size of the raging miners, and voila, a majestic, awe-inspiring dragon.

Ye Qing had the peons keep the bats in the prepared cages, then used the 3D camera to capture all their movements while they tried to futilely escape. [Tl: Totally not animal abuse.]

As for enlarging the wings and merging it with the body of raging miner, that was a detail left for the master artisans to finish.

For the Disney princesses that were ordered, Ye Qing first had some mannequin like bodies created.

This was kind of shameful to be honest. Why? Because they all came out of the forging center completely nude. As for why Disney had all these 3D blueprints, that was purely because it was easier and more economical to create them this way.

Now, in Ye Qing’s hands, they had become ice cold, metallic, glossy……

Um… can’t really go further. In any case, Ye Qing felt that they were pretty real and lifelike.

When the last princess was completed, a master artisan came over with an electronic blueprint. Ye Qing thought that it was the completed blueprints of the dragons, but the master artisan informed him that this was the shrunken base of the Mechanical Colossus.

The dragons’ blueprints were probably going to have to wait until early in the morning, so Ye Qing took a look at the time and choose to get some rest.

With the rise of the sun the next day, Ye Qing walked into his office with sleepy eye and there already were two master artisans in the workshop already assembling away all the necessary parts of Mechanical Colossus.

For its power system, Ye Qing first choice was to use the 300 KW hybrid diesel generator. This generator was able to produce almost twice the amount of power needed to operate an excavator, so even if it was the shrunken version, or the original Mechanical Colossus, it was going to be able to power them, weigh at least thirty tons, and be at least one size bigger than regular excavators.

Once he entered the underground lair, three of the same looking glaring black dragons sat on top of separate boulders appeared in front of Ye Qing.

Even having gotten used to how the raging miners looked, Ye Qing was scared to the point of sweating bullets when seeing them.

The raging miners were already big enough as it was, yet these three dragons in front of him on their several meter tall boulders, towered above with gaping mouths of razor sharp teeth, seemingly looking down on those ants that dared to overlook them.

Those clearly appeared to be metal dragons. Time even seemed to have left its mottled mark on their horns, while a thick layer of scales covered their entire body. With careful examination, one would find that none of the scales appeared the same. After some enlargements and thickening, not only could the thick and massive bone be found in their pairs of wings, their wingtips were also sharp to the point of making people shudder with only glances.
