Mecha tentacle time and space

In the 3759th year of the cosmic calendar, the Cosmic Federation.

This is a remote small planet. In a super galaxy like the Toria Galaxy, there are at least tens of thousands of such asteroids, which is really insignificant.Because it is far away from the main star of the Toria galaxy, this asteroid is not rich, but the Toria galaxy itself is one of the seven richest galaxies in the universe, and it is not considered poor.

In a small town on this small planet, there is a small-scale manufacturing factory that specializes in the processing, repairing and manufacturing of mechs.But after all, the place is too small, and there are no very powerful mecha masters. The mechas that can be made are only one-star, and they are still the most basic civilian mechas.Of course, business will not be good.Of course, this also has a certain relationship with the purchasing power of small town residents.

The manufacturing plant covers an area of ​​less than [-] square meters. There are three workshops inside, one is in charge of painting, one is manufacturing parts, and the other is assembling.Most of the employees in the factory are bachelors in their thirties. Apart from working in the workshop, they usually enjoy the cool and smoke in the open space outside when they have nothing to do. They receive a basic salary of several hundred federal dollars a month. Drink a little wine and live a comfortable life.

It's noon again, it's time for dinner.A slender man pressed the receiver on his wrist, and a thin curtain of light appeared in front of him.He tapped it a few times with his fingers, and then said, "It's done."

Several other men also burst into laughter: "Thank you boss! Thanks to the boss having a virtual computer, otherwise it would be troublesome for us to buy food!"

The slender man laughed and said, "If my small factory doesn't have a virtual computer and can't order materials on the virtual network, it will go bankrupt." He couldn't help shaking his head as he spoke, "Now it's reduced to a few of you. The guy ordered the meal, it's really..."

The present era is the era of the Internet for All.Although there are still various shops in reality, the virtual network runs through the whole universe, and there are countless large and small sub-parent networks, and the things on it are the most complete.It's just that the receiver is relatively expensive. Even the most common one costs [-] federal coins to buy one. People in such a small town can basically meet their living needs in the store, and there is really no need to be so extravagant.

But there is no doubt that the meals and supplies on the virtual network are far better than those in reality, which is why these men flock to them.

A rough-looking one touched his head: "Boss, it's a big deal for us to work hard!"

The others also followed suit: "Yes, yes!"

The slender man smiled and said, "If you can really make more accessories, it's okay to raise your wages!"

The others booed again: "Hi! The boss is really interesting!"

"It's no use following the boss!"

"Yeah, I've never seen such a kind boss!"

The flattering was loud, and the slender man was overjoyed, when the receiver on his wrist beeped again, and he was surprised: "It's here!"

At the same time, a shadow was suddenly cast on the sky, followed by a sharp whistle.A black shadow came suddenly and braked suddenly in the open space in front of the factory.

It is a shuttle-type speeding vehicle for short-distance transportation, only 12 meters in length and [-] meters in height, and it is specially used for cargo transportation.Soon, the cabin door opened, and a staircase landed smoothly. A girl in a blue spacesuit came down, holding a large plastic bag in one hand, and a half-meter machine in the other. tall black machine.

With a formulaic smile, she stepped forward and said, "Is it the customer of Guang Saturn 1389?"

The slender man greeted him: "It's me, it's me, this time it's really fast!"

The girl's smile remained unchanged: "Customer satisfaction is the biggest wish of Nebula Logistics." She said, and handed the black machine in her hand forward, "Please swipe the card, the total is 132 federal coins."

The slender man quickly agreed, took out a two-inch hard card from his pocket, and inserted it into the groove on the machine.A virtual light curtain suddenly appeared next to the machine, and the girl tapped the number 132 on it: "Is the customer confirmed?"

"Yes." The slender man took a closer look and said.

The girl clicked to confirm, took out the card, and handed it to the slender man together with the plastic bag: "The goods have arrived and the payment has been paid. Welcome to your next visit."

After she finished speaking, she returned to the flying car, and ten seconds later, the flying car flew into the sky again.

At this time, someone exclaimed: "It turns out that it is the person of Xingyun Fortune, I said why it is so much faster than last time..."

"Now everyone knows that Xingyun Logistics is the best logistics company in the universe!"

"So a good attitude is also high efficiency!"

"Yes, hahahaha!"

The slender man opened the plastic bag: "Okay, come and share! There are airbags on the flying car to keep it warm, so it's not so cheap here!"

"Okay! Here we come!"

"Eat separately, eat separately!"

Seeing that the things were looted twice, the slender man took out the last two lunch boxes, turned and walked into the factory.

It's lunch time, but the kid hasn't come out yet.

The slender man's name is Zhou Cheng, a local who was born and raised on this light Saturn. He once went outside to study and saw the world, and finally returned to this place and opened a small factory.

He recruited some bastards who wandered the streets to work, and taught them simple mecha maintenance and processing, so that these bastards could earn a living with a craft, and the atmosphere in the town was much better.The bastards who followed him are very grateful, but because they are old and their ability to accept is limited, there is no way to make any big promises, but just like this, it can be regarded as a new life.Up to now, his factory is dominated by these people.

Zhou Cheng is very kind. Generally, he saves all those who can be rescued, and helps those who can help. He has a very good reputation in the town, and he is willing to give some people a chance.For example, what he wants to go into the factory to see now is a small worker he recently recruited.

Walking to the workshop in charge of painting, a huge mecha lay on its back on the ground, the whole is dark gray, and there are some faint metallic mottled.Only one left arm has been painted bright red, which is much more beautiful compared to the rest of the mecha.

Zhou Cheng stood at the door, raised his head and shouted, "Fang Rui! It's time to eat!"

Someone above agreed, and immediately after, a person jumped off the mecha, stood firmly, and took the small lunch box from Zhou Cheng: "Thank you, uncle."

This young man called "Fang Rui" was not very old, only about fifteen or sixteen years old. He was thin and pale, and looked as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind.

Zhou Cheng looked at him and sighed: "Xiao Fang, don't let yourself work too hard when you are still growing up."

Fang Rui nodded: "I see."

Seeing that Fang Rui devoured the lunch box after receiving it, Zhou Cheng knew that he was talking for nothing again.

In fact, Zhou Cheng had a bad impression of Fang Rui before.

Fang Rui was originally the son of a merchant at the head of the town, and his living conditions in the whole town were very good. Fang Rui himself was also checked out as a C-level mental power, just enough to be able to drive a mech.Fang Rui's family had long thought that they would buy him a mecha when Fang Rui was 12 years old, and let him become an armor repairman.

But the good times didn't last long. About seven or eight years ago, when Fang Rui's father was on an interstellar voyage to buy goods, he encountered a violent meteorite flow. The small spaceship he was on was sunk, and even the body could not be found.What's even more unfortunate is that Fang Rui's mother also happened to go out to meet the world that time, causing Fang Rui's parents to disappear in the meteorite flow.Fang Rui was only seven years old at the time and had no capacity to act. Most of the family's savings were used to repay the purchase price that time, but even so, the remaining money was enough for Fang Rui to live comfortably until he was an adult.

But no one thought that Fang Rui would be so stubborn without the discipline of his parents.

Originally, Fang Rui was spoiled, and this time alone, he felt sad for his parents at first, but within a few months, he still played around on his own.Not only did he stop doing physical exercises, but he also stayed with some ignorant and unrepentant gangsters in the town, spending money like running water, and often invited friends and companions to go to the distant Fenglin City to sell gold caves to have fun. In just two or three years, all savings have been used up.When the money was gone, he sold the house and continued to mess around until he had nowhere to live, but he still messed with those gangsters.

Later, there was really no money to use, so a few people were gathered in a corner to rob people who were walking alone.Sometimes he was caught and locked up, and because he was underage, he was released within a few days.The people in the town really had no choice but to beat him up if they caught him, but even so, he still went his own way.

Fang Rui used all the money he grabbed, and even got addicted to gambling.In the past, when he had money, he would go to Fenglin City to gamble, but now that he had no money, he would gamble with the gangsters, causing complaints from the townspeople.

Finally, two months ago, when I was fighting with gangsters from the neighboring town, I was hit by a shuttle bus driven by them and fell unconscious.The others scattered, Fang Rui was thrown on the hill, no one paid any attention.

If Zhou Cheng hadn't just passed by there at that time and carried him back, Fang Rui would probably be dead now.

Zhou Cheng didn't like Fang Rui very much, and because he didn't want to see death without saving him, he brought him back for treatment.Unexpectedly, when Fang Rui woke up, his memory was blurred and he didn't recognize anyone.As a result, Zhou Cheng had no choice but to tell him everything about him.

Zhou Cheng still remembers Fang Rui's expression after listening to him - a mixture of surprise and disgust.

Afterwards, Fang Rui recovered and found out that Zhou Cheng was the owner of the small factory, so he asked for a job opportunity.Zhou Cheng agreed to him with the mentality of giving it a try, and Fang Rui impressed him.

Zhou Cheng discovered that Fang Rui was very unfamiliar with the parts of the mecha, and knew almost nothing about it, but his strengths lay in his diligence and hard work.Under Zhou Cheng's explanation, it only took Fang Rui three days to memorize every part, including what components can be made from different parts.You must know that the internal structure of a mecha is very complicated, and it takes a few beginners ten days to get familiar with it before they can barely figure it out.Fang Rui only spent so little time, which shows his intentions.In another ten days, Fang Rui went from being a complete novice to learning the simplest combination of three sets of components, and became familiar with the required parts.In another five days, Fang Rui learned to stir the paint, and in three more days, he learned the basic rules of applying paint to the mecha...

In less than a month, Fang Rui accomplished what Zhou Cheng recruited others would take half a year to do.He forgot to eat and sleep, and lost a lot of weight compared to when he was down and out on the street before, which made him look so thin.

Later, Fang Rui would come to the factory at five o'clock every morning, first assemble twenty sets of components, then prepare twenty barrels of paint, and then learn how to polish parts... until twelve o'clock in the night, he would go to a A small rented room to rest——Using the wages paid to him by Zhou Cheng for the previous few days.

Such an employee, even if Zhou Cheng was dissatisfied with him in the past, he can't fault him now.

It took only half a month for Zhou Cheng's impression of Fang Rui, from contempt to eye-level to appreciation.The other factory employees are similar, except that Fang Rui has been busy with work and never misses the lunch break, so the relationship with Fang Rui is not very warm.

After he was convinced that Fang Rui had really reformed himself, Zhou Cheng couldn't help feeling a little bit sorry for the half-grown child, and brought him a copy every time he had lunch.But Fang Rui didn't want to take advantage of it, so he would still hand over the meal money to Zhou Cheng, which made Zhou Cheng's impression of him a little better.

After thinking for a while, Fang Rui had already finished eating, and the whole process took no more than 5 minutes.Immediately afterwards, he climbed back onto the mech and began to apply paint.

Today was the first time he'd been allowed to actually paint a mech, and of course he'd jump at the chance.

Seeing his quick hands and feet, Zhou Cheng felt a little helpless, so he couldn't help shouting again: "Xiao Fang, pay attention to rest!" Hearing the voice of "I know" from above, Zhou Cheng shook his head and walked out.

The workers outside are actually pretty good, but compared to this kid, they are much worse...

After a long day at work, the emaciated teenager returns to his small rented house.After a quick battle shower in the bathroom, he fell face up on the bed.

Then, covering his eyes with his arms, he sighed silently.

"I want to rest too, but..."
