“Hmph!” Lu Feng grunted loudly in pain. But the singular will of a Spryher wouldn’t allow this little amount of pain to phase him.

His clothes shredded into pieces and from behind, he looked like he had been taken over by an alien lifeform with the gadget he was wearing.

Phyllida’s smile instantly vanished and she said. “So this is your trump card. The FE-07 Strength Magnifier.”

Lu Feng let out a pained but dark chuckle.”Seems you know you tech a lot. And you should be aware of what it is capable of.”

“Ah, yes. I just didn’t think you would equip it. The pain must be terrible right.”

“We are Spryhers, this little amount of pain means nothing. Stop all this mind games and let’s get to the good part.” Lu Feng smirked.

Suddenly, he breathed roughly, and tensed this muscles lightly. Energy was then transmitted from the charge cell to the strength Magnifier, instantly doubling the amount of force he was about to use.

Dark Dragon’s Fist!

The surroundings instantly trembled and the air within the area was supressed.

Jumping back down into the hole, David went up to the crushed skull of the beast and he began to search through the digesting flesh blood and brain matter littered on the floor. Seperating them on the floor with his hands. 

After a few minutes his hand touched upon somethingl incredibly hard and small, he could guess whatbitnis as Hazel had explained to him the description of the Nucleus.

Removing his hand from within the head of the beast, what lay in his hand was a brown and bright looking object with irregular shapes at its sides. If it weren’t for how bright it was, David would have thought it was just an ordinary stone.

But as he held it within his palms, he could feel nan incredibly amount of energy hidden within the core. The power undulating from the Nucleus made him feel as though he was going to explode just by touching it. His breathing was suddenly growing heavy and he had an impulse to just swallow it. 

He immediately opened his backpack and placed the stuff within, heaving a sigh of relief. It was like he was somehow compelled from deep within his bones to want to swallow it. 

“It’s the basic human instincts to want to grow stronger, better and faster. It urged you to do whatever it takes.” Hazel explained. 

David blinked and he nodded his head. “By the way, why do you suddenly know too much? You usually wouldn’t even answer some simple questions of mine.” David questioned. 

“That’s because I gained a few tiny pieces of data after merging my system to the Combat Suit.”

“Oh, can you then see the previous owner of the suit?” David asked in wonder. 

“Not really, the data is all scrambled. I need some time to rearrange them and piece them back but it will take a while.” Hazel said. 

“Okay,but so you know how I can repair the suit? Its all damaged with a few holes in it.” David complained, gazing at the few holes on the suit. Two on his right arm, one on his left, three holes the size of a baby’s fist on his chest and a few other tiny holes on the thighs and legs. 

David couldn’t help but wonder what weapon could damage the suit to such an extent. The battle must have been fierce. 

As David was about to close his backpack and place it back onto his back, he heard Hazel say “Wait!”

“Uh?, what’s wrong?” David hurriedly got into a battle position and since he had been circulating the blood in his body to charge up the suit, he was combat ready in just a few milliseconds. He looked around cautiously to find where the threat could be coming from and he saw nothing. But that didn’t make him at ease.

“Do you remember those things you called Gold that you placed in your backpack?” Hazel asked. 

“Yes?” David eased his body and answered. 

“Bring them out, it seems they are the universal attachments for combat Suit.” she explained. 

Surprised, David quickly brought out the three golden items from his backpack. The one of which looked like the spine of a human, and one which appears to be in cubical shape while the other in a rectangular shape. 

“Check them out, “

“Okay. Deactivating power saving mode.”

“Restricted features and programs are being restored.”

“Activating the image recognition program.”

“Items identified.”

“Three Combat Suit add-ons.”

“Eh!?” David was stunned, add-ons. On his field of vision, as he focused his state on the three golden items in front of him, holographic words appeared on top of them, stating their names. 

Item: Nanoswarm

Form: Axe (Bronze quality) 

Item: Nanoswarm 

Form: Great Axe (Iron quality) 

Item: Equipable Gadget

Form: Strength Magnifier

On top of the two block of gold, words about Nanoswarm and sword were written baside them, but beside the spine like gold, the words Equipable gadget and strength Magnifier appeared. 

Nanoswarm, as the name implies are thousands, millions or even billions of Nanobots almost the size of an atom connected to each other to form swarms or a specific complete structure. 

For example, the cells made up the entire body of a human structure. Cells are tiny and too tiny for the human eye to spot. 

The cells are great examples of Nanobots if not the same. 

Every Nanoswarm has only two forms. The initial form which was the form they are usually at when not in use and the Main Form which was also the second form of the Nanoswarm when needed. 

Nanoswarms had already been programmed and configured to move, act and then finally construct in a specific structure for use. 

Hearing this explanation, David shivered in excitement and he asked “How do I activate it?”

“Unfortunately, the suit has been badly damaged and is unable to equip the Nanoswarm. The transmitter on both wrist of Combat Suit has been torn off which is shown by those hole visible on them.”

Davud felt like he had drop from heaven to well, earth. The same feeling you get when you are high but was suddenly sobered up immediately. 

Refusing to believe it, David asked. “What do you mean?”

Hazel : “… “

David : “Fine!” he had somewhat expected to not be answered anyways. But the attitude of his AI was definitely getting worse. She needed to be taught a lesson, he just didn’t know how. 𝗇𝚘𝐯𝗲𝑙𝞰𝑒xt.𝐜𝚘𝐌

“Okay, what about the strength magnifier?” David reluctant places the two block of gold back into his backpack, remaining the spine like gold lying in his grasp. 

“Just place your imprint on it, I will transfer your data onto it and then follow my instructions.” Hazel answered. 

Following her words, David did as he was told. He placed his imprint on it, and their was an indistinct whirling sound that came from deep within the Golden rod. 

After that was done, he placed the golden spine directly onto his spine at the back ad according to Hazel, it shouldn’t hurt. 

In that exact moment, six mechanical arms, three on each sized of the spine emerged and somehow attached themselves to the Combat Suit. 

Two on both shoulders, two on his upper arm and two under his armpit. 

The spine also let off a few tendrils of needles and pricked at the Combat Suit from behind but was unable to get past it. The needles then simply seem to melt and also somehow connected itself with the Combat Suit. 

Blinking his eyes, David 

David moved his arms, he was still comfortable and although mildly, it was still okay. Except for the few indistinct whirling mechanical sound he heard when he flexes his muscles, every thing was okay. 

Smirking to himself, David thoughts then went back to the nanoswarms. “Is there any way for me to fix it. So I can get the nanoswarms connected, up and running?”

“Sure, but the institute would require a huge amount of Gyno points to fix it since the materials used to build the Combat Suit are quite expensive.”

David chuckled softly “Money isn’t of any problem to me. How much would it require to fix it?”

“According to my estimation, it will require at least 500, 000 Gyno poinys to fully fix the suit.”

Davud almost staggered where he was. 500,000 thousand Gyno points, are you fvcking kidding me?

He couldn’t even earn himself a couple of Gyno points and he luckily just gained a bit more than 200,000 points but Hazel was now telling him he needed 500,000 points just repair the suit. 

He was literally lose for words, he doesn’t even have half of the money. But then, the gears in his head turned and he seem to have noticed a detail. 

“You said to fully repair the suit, what if I don’t what to fully repair the suit. Never mind, breakdown every faulty parts in the Combat suit and put them on a list. Don’t forget to write the estimated price each of them will take to repair by their sides..” David commanded.
