Number One Dungeon Supplier
chapter-667

"Rei, how did it go?" Jin showed a weary smile when he teleported into the workshop entrance. All the past two days, the dungeon supplier had been working non stop to ensure the success of gathering allies while fulfilling his promise to Hamatarou to save them.

It did, however, derail into a new customer dungeon raid but the subsequent and yet surprising capture of Maeve proved to be worth it.

Jin hoped that he could get some miscellaneous task done before the police and military cooperation exercise. Still, it was imperative he assisted the System in obtaining its upgrade to eradicate the perceived threat above Shenzhen.

The police captain did say that things were under control, but Jin knew that he was definitely underreporting the severity of the situation. That was how his country work most of the time though everyone kept mum about it.

Although it was a risk to send the young, new graduated Demon Exorcists to the field, they were already contracted with the System. So there was little to worry about his 'assistants', and this would be another valuable experience for them.

"Hey Boss, it went rather well. The Orcs and Goblins definitely had some knowledge in the field mechanics and electronics...although it sure is useful to have some magic capabilities. It made the process more viable." Rei replied with a hearty smile.

It had been a long time since he was covered in engine grease, and the nostalgic feeling of it was tremendously satisfying. He already felt it was already worthy to take a two day break from his manga drawing to do all of this.

"Not to mention, the crew here is itching to go have a test run, though I assume you want them to go into the practical immediately." Rei added as three goblin pilots came forth to salute at Jin.

"Pilot Piratez, Washbuckler and Deckerhand reporting." The goblins announced but their names gave Jin a curious expression.

"Ah, a bit of a long story. It was I who told them that having code names are common in my battlefield and informed the goblins that this particular mission was to salvage for parts in space. So, they had decided to get pirate-y names when I told them that outer space was like a vast ocean." Rei explained.

"Its a little cheesy but if they like it, let them be." Jin thought to himself as he chuckled a little before nodding his head in acknowledgement of the goblins who were still saluting.

"Yeap, so follow me. I have managed to convert two construction Sandroku Golems into Salvaging Golems, which by the way, I am impressed by the practicality of the golems. In terms of mobility and strength, they were as close, if not better, than the mecha workers we have in our work. Of course, I am comparing based on the models before I transmigrated. The only difference and complain is the use of batteries. However..." Rei continued to ramble as he beckoned Jin to follow him into the busy workshop in Industry Sector 1 of the Dungeon City Fortress.

Jin was initially interested to hear, but when Rei got into the specifics, he was starting to feel like it was his engineering professor ranting all over again. (Undoubtedly it caused him to turn a deaf ear to Rei's explanation..)

Soon, they reached a more secluded hanger and saw the Orc engineers doing final checks to the golems. It caused Jin to wonder why there wasn't a mix of Orcs and goblins going into space. Rei later explained that it was mainly because the goblin pilots have a good grasp of instant magic. "I have to fix up a support system for outer space and wanted to insert the backup respiratory support system too... But I am afraid the battery load will exceed, and this will cause unexpected short circuits in the golem." Rei started his lengthy explanation.

"So, with the pilots able to use magic at the crux of an emergency would heighten the odds of them surviving. Like putting a barrier in front of them in case of a breach or setting an air bubble around their head before ejecting and teleporting back to the Hangar again." Rei replied, and it looked like the mechatronics engineer was mentally checking off the standard safety protocols in his head when he was remodelling the golems.

"Plus, we are lightweight and take lesser oxygen. More air, longer operating hours, lesser strain on the battery system." Washbuckler said, and the Orcs could not argue against that.

When Jin saw the new remodified Salvaging Golems, he was surprised to know that it was extremely simple in design. This was because Rei did something similar to the Gearbox System which he had made the salvaging tools modular and detachable to the Salvaging Golems' arms. These included typical salvaging items like a pickup pinching arm, a cutter arm, and there was one with a power magnet on it.

"What happened to the third one?" Jin asked, and Rei's smirk got wider as he quickly when to the corner and turn on the lights only for Jin to realise that the hangar was bigger than he thought it would be. (The goblin pilots did place a magical illusion spell to help with the surprise too.)

The third golem was modified to fit on the nose of the C-130 plane.

Rei and the rest of the engineering crew had ingeniously outfitted the C-130 plane with rocket boosters on its wings as well as putting automated turrets on the sides of the dropship.

"Since we were going modular, I thought to see your old blueprints. And that was where we found the plans of your Orgebuster from Ayse, I felt inspired to create something similar. Of course, I did it within my timeframe, and there were limits to this prototype beauty." Rei said with excitement while tapping his hand on the plane.

"We were, after all, using this as a dropship to haul the debris and salvaged items back to the hangar and this should reduce the System's expenses instead of opening a portal infinitely," Rei commented, stating that the System was extremely pleased with the design proposal and gave a C-130 for free for them to modify.

"I am honestly blown away by this too." Jin for once smiled like a kid in a toy store, seeing a brand new toy for grabs.
