Chapter 69 (1/2)

Cha Jun Sung looked over the cyborg he had left in the briefing room. It looks fine on the outside, but its energy core has run out and cannot act.

The defects are on the good side. To compare it to a car? Its windows and bumper have been broken and its bodywork is dented, but there is no problem with its ability to run.

The internal defects are the serious ones. If the main parts including the engine are dysfunctional, it will be hard to fix and it would cost too much to replace the parts.

That is the state of the cyborg. Parts like the framework and metal armor are external matters that can be fixed immediately with an investment of a small amount of points.

The engine core, which acts as the heart, burned during battle with the Destroyer. It was more difficult to find parts that were intact rather than looking for the parts to fix.

“I did take it because it was free, but this is too much.”

-[It is cheaper to switch out a few parts than to purchase the finished product.]

“Is this just a few parts? I have to completely grind this thing out. I would’ve focused on body modification if you hadn’t given this thing to me, but it keeps catching my eye!”

Although it was short, he had clearly seen the advanced cyborg’s ability to fight.

It has the ability to go into hand-to-hand combat and battle a level 4 Destroyer. If he can just fix this cyborg, there could not be a better companion.

-[Power Type Advanced Cyborg: 5,000,000 points]

-[Description: Tanker type cyborg configured of C class parts. With 30 times the strength of humans and a sturdy outer armor, it matches up against enemies without weakness.]

It may seem like a windfall just by looking at the point value, but the reality is not as bright.

Excluding a few parts, the rest would have to be replaced or repaired. Cha Jun Sung has 80,000 points. This will fall short by a lot.

The urgent part is the energy core. Without it, it cannot operate at all. He could manage somehow without the other parts, but the energy core would need to be replaced immediately.

“How am I supposed to buy something that costs 2 million points?”

-[Even if you can’t buy a C class energy core, there is a way to quickly resolve it for now.]

“What is it?”

Cha Jun Sung is alert. The cyborg would be able to take on 100 alone. He did keep complaining, but he really did want to use it.

-[Temporarily take the energy core from the Wolf Kill and attach it to the cyborg.]

“This?”

Cha Jun Sung took the Wolf Kill out of his space compression bag. Dissect this?

“Won’t it get messed up?”

-[You are just taking out the energy core. You can attach it again at any time.]

-[The output might be a little weak because it is D class but if you just make sure to check its arms well, it has the ability to take on 2 level 3 mutants.]

“It’s tempting.”

With the cyborg next to him, it would be helpful in earning points and it would be reassuring.

The points that the cyborg earns goes to the owner. Achievement points come in as well, but a lot of points are taken off because the owner did not catch the mutant himself.

-[Most of the machinery in vibrating weapons and cyborg parts overlap.]

“So to put it simply, if we dismantle the Wolf Kill, we can make the cyborg run?”

-[Are you trying to get it for free? You also have to use the 80,000 points you’ve gathered.]

“Then how many times can it run?”

-[Calculating output rate….. Calculation complete. It is different according to the mission’s difficulty level. 5 times for 3000 points, 2 times for 5000 points.]
