Machine War: Infinite Frontier.

Seeing Miyuki Xiangyu gently taking the syringe away from her neck, Xiao Yun smiled when he saw her slightly frowning and somewhat uncomfortable look.

"how do you feel?"

"It feels cold and a little itchy." Miyuki Aoyama closed her eyes and slowly felt the changes in herself. She said, "It seems that these drugs are flowing into my body through my blood."

Said Miyuki Aiyu, took a long, deep breath, tilted her head and said, "I feel a lot more relaxed now, thank you."

Of course, it's just a feeling. Even if it's a miracle drug, it's impossible for it to work in the blink of an eye. Of course, it will take effect very quickly.

"That's good." Xiao Yun smiled and nodded, saying, "As for the danger you mentioned, don't worry. If you follow us, our troubles may be linked to you. If you are in danger and I am in trouble, then we can help each other."

"Are you in trouble too?" Xiang Yu Miyuki showed a slightly surprised expression, and after a moment of silence, she gently shook her head at Xiao Yun: "It's okay, I can help you."

Xiao Yun looked at Xiang Yu Miyuki, and reflexively reached out and touched Xiang Yu Miyuki's head: "Okay, if you meet someone who comes to trouble you, we will help you solve it, and you will act with us in the future."

Miyuki Aoi hesitated: "But..."

"Not so many buts." Xiao Yun laughed and said, "Don't underestimate us. Answer me a few questions first."

Miyuki Aiu bit her lower lip and nodded: "Yeah."

Xiao Yun said: "Do you know where there is a gathering place nearby? You should have heard just now that if we don't have supplies, our food and water can only last for a few days at most. If it is too far from here, we must set off immediately when the dust is less."

"I know." Miyuki Aoi nodded gently and said, "It takes about half a day to walk from here. That place is just a small settlement."

It would be good to have a settlement and it only takes half a day. We can rush there anytime after the wind and sand stop. It shouldn't be a problem to find something to eat and drink in the settlement.

However, Xiao Yun also had other questions he wanted to ask. After thinking about it, he put some of the questions aside and asked, "Is there any large military base nearby?"

Miyuki Aiyu shook her head: "I don't know about that."

It doesn’t matter if you don’t know. You can investigate when you get to the settlement.

Kururugi, Suzaku and Reiwu, who went to investigate the situation below, took a long time to come back. When they came back, they were carrying backpacks and cardboard boxes that they found from somewhere and packed with a lot of things.

Xiao Yun walked over with some curiosity and watched Kururugi, Suzaku and Lingwu pour out all the things, picking up each thing and looking at them.

A mobile phone, a PDA, some miscellaneous small bits and bobs, as well as some handheld game consoles and the like. It wasn't a lot but the main thing was what Lingwu brought back, a whole box of spare batteries.

"Where did you find these things?"

Kururugi Suzaku smiled and said, "I found it along the way down. There are some unused workshops down there."

"What's the situation downstairs?" Xiao Yun threw back the things in his hand, but picked up the game console and tried to turn it on. Then a battery-out prompt appeared on the screen.

Kururugi Suzaku said: "After we reached the underground area, the situation was terrible. There were all the bugs we had seen before. I was worried that if we made too much noise, it might affect this place, so I came back with Lingwu."

Leonard picked up something like a mobile phone and took it apart in two or three moves. After checking it for a while, he took out a spare battery and tested it. No one knew what this guy was busy with.

The key point is that Leonard has been working here for such a long time but it seems that there is no movement. Unlike Luo, who always moves very quickly and has a strong sense of feedback that makes people feel at ease. Leonard is completely the opposite. If you don't ask him, he won't tell you. Without feedback, there is really no experience.

If it were an ordinary BOSS, he might pretend to know, but Xiao Yun would not do that. If he didn't know, he didn't know. If he didn't know, he had to ask: "What do you use these things for?"

Without even looking up, Leonard said, "Let's try to see if the local communication equipment can connect to the planet's network. I specifically asked Suzaku to keep an eye out on the road and bring it back. Let's try to find the local communication frequency, but it's probably a waste of effort. If there was a satellite signal, we would have already connected it."

Xiao Yun shrugged: "Will the battery work?"

"You want to charge that gaming device?" Leonard glanced at what Xiao Yun was holding and nodded slightly: "The battery is well preserved, you can try it."

Xiao Yun took a battery and a handheld game console and sat back to study it. Charging and starting the game console would be easy with his hands. After waiting for a while for the game console to start up successfully, Xiao Yun prepared to use it to kill time. Games in different worlds are different and can always bring Xiao Yun a very good gaming experience.

After a whole day passed, there was no sign of the sandstorm abating. Instead, the wind and sand were getting stronger and stronger. Xiao Yun and his companions were forced to stay in this place which was not safe and had no supplies for another day. They packed up their things and left in a hurry until the storm abated.

After picking up so many things, the only thing Leonard took away was a communicator that he had repaired and modified. Xiao Yun took only the game console and the spare batteries that could still be used. After everything was packed, it was still Lingwu, Lingyi and Kururugi Suzaku who carried them on their backs.

They moved forward carefully for half a day and finally saw the settlement that Miyuki Aoi mentioned. It was a small camp built with various woolen cloth and canvas under countless huge rocks. Many tents were set up under the huge rocks. It didn't look like a settlement but more like a post station, with scrap steel and stones as walls to protect the people inside.

In ancient times, due to distance limitations, caravans could only advance about 30 to 40 kilometers a day, a speed that is unimaginable for modern people. After all, a car can easily cover 30 to 40 kilometers in half an hour. At that time, there would be a rest station at intervals.

This place is a bit like an ancient post station. It can be said to be a settlement. It is quite popular and you can see many camels resting next to the post station.

The appearance of Xiao Yun and others also made the people in the settlement a little nervous. After all, compared with their ordinary attire, Xiao Yun and others looked like they were not easy to mess with. What's more important is that the weapons they carried could also pose a threat to them.

After taking a look at the people on his side, Leonard raised his hand and slowly walked towards the settlement. This action made the people in the settlement relax a little, and they waited warily for Leonard to approach.

After a while, Reynard came back after negotiating with the other party. Reynard shook his head gently, "This is a rest stop on the trade route and the busiest market in the nearby area. There are many people coming here to trade on weekdays. There is also a place for us to stay. However, we need something valuable as currency. We can also use the supply coupons given by the defense army. Unfortunately, we probably don't have anything that can be used as currency."

"Although ammunition and other things can be used as currency, we use specially made non-standard ammunition, and the amount we have is not worth much."

Leonard expressed their biggest helplessness at the moment in a very calm tone. They had found a settlement and were able to communicate with the natives to get more information, but they were stumped by the word "money".

But when Xiao Yun heard what Leonard said, he laughed. He was not panicked at all, but rather confident. It was too familiar, wasn't it?

He had experience with this kind of thing. Didn't he encounter this situation the last time he went to the MACROSS world? If you have money, you can go anywhere, but without money, you can't go anywhere.

"Suzaku, unbox."

As Xiao Yun finished speaking, Zhuque quickly took down the box behind him and opened it. Xiao Yun reached into the secret compartment in the box and took out a few pieces of gold, which appeared in his hand.

"Is it enough?"

Leonard was stunned for a moment. Before he could ask, Xiao Yun explained triumphantly, "This kind of thing is a thing of the past in version 1.0. The new version now not only has gold and gems in the supply box, but also two gold bars in the backpack of the combat uniform. How could we not think of something that they thought of many years ago to ensure the safety of pilots? You just don't go on missions often, so you still need to practice. Communicate more with the auxiliary AI on this kind of thing."

Leonard took the gold bars speechlessly: "I'm sorry, my AI is the quiet type."

Xiao Yun curled his lips and waved his hand, telling Leonard to hurry up and not waste time. Soon, someone with a cheerful smile enthusiastically welcomed Xiao Yun and others into the settlement.

The entrance and exit of this settlement is under a huge rock in the wilderness, but after entering, you will find that there is another world inside that is much larger than what you see from the outside. The outside is just the entrance. The real settlement is inside. The whole settlement is built in a place surrounded by rock walls, in a very huge cave with a gap on it that allows sunlight to shine in. If you look carefully, you can still see many traces of artificial excavation and many industrial equipment are still hanging on the mountain walls.

It’s not like there’s a constant flow of people coming and going, but there are a lot of people living in this place, and they dress in all kinds of styles.

Following the guide, Xiao Yun saw many scenes, such as a woman in lightly dressed standing outside a tent, waving her hands enthusiastically...

The place where Xiao Yun and his team were going to live was in the depths of this space, a huge tent and a large space hollowed out of the mountain. Although the facilities inside were not luxurious, they were very complete and sufficient for Xiao Yun and his team to use.

Kururugi Suzaku took off his helmet and shook his head, sighing: "It's like a post-apocalyptic wasteland. This is my first time encountering such a situation."

"That's because you haven't seen enough. You need to practice more." Reynard replied calmly. He also took off his helmet and put it aside, looking at the temporary residence: "One gold bar can allow us to stay for three days. At the same time, we will be provided with food and water. Wine and other things are not included."

"Row."

Xiao Yun had no objection to this. This settlement felt pretty good and it was not completely empty. There was electricity, water, food, and so many people. Although it was not particularly large, it at least felt like a standard village camp.

"Reynard, change your clothes and go buy some clothes. Ask for some information while you're here. Bring Suzaku with you."

Leonard nodded. He also understood that it was impossible to ask Xiao Yun to do such a thing. Then the person who was most familiar with the current environment was only himself, so he had no choice but to take the responsibility. It was not impossible to let Xiao Yun go, but professional matters should be left to professionals.

Xiao Yun said to the remaining three women: "You guys take a break first. I think we can still take a shower here."

"Really?" A hint of joy suddenly appeared on Miyuki Aiyu's face: "Um... can I go take a shower first?"

"Go." Xiao Yun waved his hand and said heroically, "Everyone, have a good meal today and relax."

Lingwu and Lingyi did not show any support, only Miyuki put her hands on her face and responded happily.

"That's great. I haven't eaten normal food for a long time. Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao Yun."

"Small idea."

Miyuki Aiyu smiled faintly, turned around and trotted away. She couldn't wait to take a bath.

Xiao Yun's eyes were shining as he watched Xiang Yu Miyuki's departing back, as if he had seen something particularly precious and wanted to possess it for himself. His eyes revealed interest, possession, and curiosity, but no lust.

Because the source of possession in Xiao Yun's heart is not love, but research. This is a possibility that can allow everyone except the plant tribe to use the armor.

After two days of contact, Xiao Yun had already discovered that this girl was incredibly weak and in very bad physical condition. She would get very tired after a little exercise and had poor physical strength. The can of nano-therapeutic potion given to Miyuki Xiangyu was indeed effective, but just one can was not enough to completely improve Miyuki Xiangyu's body. She needed continuous injections, just like Xue'er from the 00 World Angel Team. Only continuous injections of nano-therapeutic potions could maintain her current condition. As for gradual improvement, more therapeutic nano-robots must be used in conjunction with corresponding equipment.

But now both of these conditions are not met. However, with the current number of nanoinjections alone, Miyuki Aoi can be maintained for a long time without worry. If the medical level of this world is sufficient, the nanoinjections can also be used to maintain it for a longer time.

Anyway, with the physical fitness of Miyuki Aiu, she can transform into a space knight. As long as this problem can be figured out, Xiao Yun and the others can also use the same technology to transform. Another difficulty in studying the plant armor now is the material conversion technology. Maybe all of them can be completely cracked in this world.

only……

"There may be too many competitors. If too many people master this thing, it will be worthless, right?" Xiao Yun stroked his chin and thought, "It's not easy to push the war weapons of World 0 towards the MS development route. If other people master the technology of Tiejiaman, won't this thing be rampant?"

"No, no, this technology must be exclusive."
