Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 26 Mechanic Exclusive Skills

After a while, everyone present reacted.

"Great, really great! Is this the power of magic? Hahaha..." Jess was full of praise for the scene in front of him.

Caitlin beside him was equally shocked from ear to ear, "Okay, that's amazing..."

"This kind of power is several levels higher than the Atlas gloves used by the miners..." Erro restrained his expression slightly, and said to his wife.

Karina nodded slightly invisibly, staring intently at the power arm on Li Lin's arm.

"Which field are you going to use your power arm for?"

She didn't ask about the Hex energy crystal, and seemed to be indifferent to it, focusing on Li Lin's relatively unrelated invention.

"To be precise, it is a complete set of exoskeleton power units."

Li Lin explained slowly, repeating the previous discussion with Jess:
"Theoretically, it could not only protect the wearer, but also improve their strength, and be light enough and flexible enough.

"It can be used as a porter working on the wharf, as a worker digging in a mine, or even some dangerous diving operations."

Li Lin paused for a moment, then changed the topic: "But I am more inclined to apply it to the military industry."

"Military industry? This is not the field that our Gilaman family is involved in." Erro, like Jess before him, did not agree with Li Lin's point of view.

But before Li Lin could explain anything, Mrs. Karina defended him in a flat tone: "It is still good for our family to be widely involved in other fields."

"But my dear, Worthlaton, Polpok, and the Kewolds over there..."

"They will agree to give us a share." Karina kept looking at Li Lin, her tone was quite confident, "Okay, let's stop here today."

She looked away and looked at Jess, "Your invention is very useful. I need you and Li Lin to give a speech at the Evolution Day Conference in a few days."

"Speech?" Li Lin looked surprised.

Although he had long thought that he would be pushed to the surface by the Gilaman family, and let many other families know that he was a craftsman who was a genius inventor at a young age.

I didn't expect it to be this way...

"This is our tradition. Every year, important inventions will be summarized on the Evolution Day, and then the most outstanding scientists will be selected to give a speech." Erro explained with a smile.

"Oh, yes, there is one more thing." Mrs. Karina added, "I will introduce you to other families on Evolution Day, and there will be a dinner in the evening, remember to prepare in advance."

……

……

In the middle of the night, Li Lin finally ended his busy day.

After taking a hot bath, he lay comfortably on his two-meter-wide soft and comfortable big bed, recalling the events that followed that night.

Mrs. Karina took away the Hex energy crystal he made, saying that it would be displayed as a sample at the Evolution Day Conference.

Fortunately, there is still one Hex crystal left, otherwise his exoskeleton power armor process will be slowed down again.

Although Jess originally agreed to use that crystal to study it by himself...

However, under the persuasion of Li Lin's "rogue", the helpless Jess still agreed.

As for the Evolution Day dinner, to be honest, Li Lin didn't know much about banquet etiquette in the upper class.

Fortunately, Caitlin volunteered to contract all related matters.

And despite Li Lin's objection, he asked him to get up early tomorrow to go to her class.

"Oh...Katelyn really, I've been staying up all night studying recently, and I don't know how to be considerate of me and ask me to get up early." Li Lin muttered, "Recently I always feel a little restless, could it be If you stay up too late, you will die suddenly..."

After thinking about it carefully, he felt that this idea was not reliable.

After all, I stayed up late every day before time travelling, didn't I have nothing to do?
"That should mean that the big one is coming...I have to get ready quickly."

Li Lin turned over on the bed, put aside all distracting thoughts, and immersed himself in the system in his mind.

"I still remember a series of messages played to me after the energy crystal system was made today..."

He casually glanced at his complete panel:
【Name: Li Lin】

【Occupation: Mechanic】

【Level: Level 5】

[HP: 765/765]

【Mana: 113/113】

【Combat power: 8】

[Skill Points: 7]

[Fortune: 0 blue essence, 0 orange essence]

[Skills to master: proficient manufacturing, digital thinking, firearms mastery, basic fighting]

[Additional function: skill panel]

[Insufficient level, function not unlocked...]

【…】

"Ok?"

Li Lin suddenly noticed that there was an "extra function" module on the panel, which was not there before.

It seems that it should be unlocked after I reached level 5.

"When I unlocked the 'skill upgrade' module before, I could only upgrade the skills I had already mastered.

"At that time, I could only upgrade [Skilled Manufacturing] and [Data-based Thinking], so I didn't pay much attention to it...

"Now that I have unlocked another 'skill panel', it seems that my skill points can finally come in handy."

Li Lin thought about it, and at the same time, with a thought, he opened the skill panel.

The skill panel is very simple, and with a big glance, he actually has the illusion that he is playing DNF.

For now, he doesn't have many skills to learn, and quite a few of them are blueprints with familiar names.

For example, Hextech Drinking Demon Knife, Hextech Gunblade, Hextech Prototype Belt-01, Hextech GLP-800 and other equipment that have appeared in the game.

He can design these blueprint skills with his current knowledge reserves, and it is a waste to use skill points on them.

Soon, Li Lin's eyes locked on three skill icons under the category of "exclusive skills".

【Exclusive Skills】

[Passive Mechanic Introduction: The speed of learning mechanical knowledge is increased by 50%, and there is a 1% probability of acquiring rare blueprints or skills. 】

[Skill Prerequisites: Mechanic Occupation, Level 5]

[Every time the skill level increases by 1 level, the speed of learning mechanical knowledge will increase by 10%, and the probability of acquiring rare blueprints or skills will increase by 1%. 】

……

[Passive·Mechanical Affinity: Improve the affinity for mechanical creations and increase the speed of mechanical manufacturing by 25%. 】

[Skill Prerequisites: Mechanic Entry, Level 5]

[Each skill level increases by 1 level, the affinity for mechanical creation will be improved, and the speed of mechanical manufacturing will be increased by 5%. 】

……

【Active Neural Network Connection: Mastering the technology of connecting machinery with human nerves can realize the control of the mechanical body through the brain. 】

[Skill Prerequisites: None]

[Skill Level Cap: Level 1]

……

[Active Mechanical Improvement: Consume mana and mechanical materials to improve and upgrade the mechanical device (70% probability of upgrading inferior quality to excellent quality, 35% probability of upgrading rare quality from excellent quality, 1% probability of upgrading rare quality artifact)]

[Skill Prerequisites: Getting Started as a Mechanic]

[Every time the skill level is increased by 1 level, the probability of upgrading from poor quality to excellent quality will increase by 3%, and the probability of upgrading from excellent quality to rare quality will increase by 2%]

……

These are two passive skills and two active skills that he can learn with skill points unlocked after reaching level 5.

The first two passive skills are more like providing BUFF bonuses for the profession of mechanics, and the third [neural network connection] skill is the technology that the two city-states have already achieved.

Whether it is the enhanced prosthetic body of Hex Technology or Alchemy Technology, it is necessary to implant machinery into the flesh, or completely replace the flesh with mechanical devices.

If the enhanced prosthetic body is to be more useful than the physical body, it is necessary to connect the machine to the nerves.

As for the last [Mechanical Improvement] skill, it is a skill used to improve the quality of equipment, and it depends on the face.

But after all, it is a mechanic's exclusive skill, and it is more likely to be a prerequisite for certain skills in the future. Li Lin still spent 4 skill points to level up all four skills.

As for the remaining skill points, he intends to save them for the time being.
