Chapter 82 Manxiu Returns Energy Core

Passing through the corridor and outside the isolation area, Kanyate's country is still gray and black.

There are no people coming and going, and there is no singing of birds and flowers. There are only towering minarets and huge chimneys that breathe out gray mist.

The streets were silent, surrounded by metallic objects. The gray and black metal infects everything in this country. There are no other colors here, and the country is filled with depressing gray and black.

Hughes looked at the sky. The sky was surrounded by thick gray fog, but he could still feel the light from the sun. It was still daytime.

Hughes returned to Manshew's factory, but there was no Manshew in the factory, and Hughes didn't see Manshew's modified car.

"Haven't you come back yet?" Hughes waited patiently in the factory.

Soon the roar of cars sounded outside the factory, Hughes opened his eyes, and slowly got up while sitting cross-legged.

"Reached."

With a crackling sound, the door was completely opened, and a heavy armored vehicle drove in with a small boat.

The armored vehicle put the boat down, the door opened, and a small figure emerged from the vehicle.

"Hughes!"

Manxiu looked around in the car for a while, and when he saw Hughes, his face was full of excitement and happiness that could not be concealed.

He waved at Hughes, then ran out of the car.

"Ah."

Hughes nodded to Manxiu in response, it seems that what happened inside the barrier will not affect the operation of this country.

Hughes secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried about whether the excessive things he did inside would affect the country, but now it seems that it should be no big deal.

After all, this country now belongs to Manxiu in a sense. He can be said to be the patron saint of this country and the only resident.

"Hughes! I'm back!"

Manxiu walked up to Hughes with a proud face, and unconsciously wiped the tip of his nose with his fingers, even though he had no nose.

Today, he did something for his friends that he would not dare to do for hundreds of years, close to the sea, and now he is proud of himself.

"I dragged your boat here! I'll help you transform the boat later!"

"Well, thank you so much, Manxiu." Hughes looked at Manxiu seriously.

"Don't be so polite!" Manxiu was a little shy, "Aren't we friends? Friends should help each other, shouldn't we!"

"We are friends." Seeing such a warm and innocent person for the first time, Hughes felt a little uncomfortable for a while, "By the way, this is for you."

Hughes took something out of his pocket and reached out to Manxiu.

"What is this?" Manxiu took the small thing from Hughes with some doubts.

Exquisite carving, small size, "This is... an energy core?!"

"This thing disappeared from this country a long time ago."

Manxiu focused on studying the energy core in his hand, while introducing it to Hughes.

"The guard robots equipped with energy cores were brought into the barrier by the last batch of scientists and participated in the last operation."

"The energy core not only has the energy of [Etel], but also has a set of automatic recovery programs loaded inside."

Speaking of this, Manxiu had a weird expression on his face, "Although the energy core can recover automatically, this speed... is really hard to describe..."

"With that time to let it recover automatically, it's better to replenish the energy manually. After all, the energy overflowed by [Eitel] for a quarter of an hour does not know how many energy cores can be filled."

"However, its automatic recovery energy is very strong now... Are you really going to give this thing to me?!"

"Aren't we friends?" Hughes looked at Manxiu with a smile, "Let's take this as my...friends in return."

"Ok!"

Holding the walnut-sized energy core, Manxiu spun around and laughed excitedly, "Great!"

For Manxiu, the important thing is not the set of self-recovery functions in its body, but the unique energy in it that belongs to [Eitel].

In this country, the energy of [Eitel] is already a legendary thing, although Manxiu knows and has seen [Eitel], he even knows where [Eitel] is.

But he has never seen the real thing with his own eyes, and he has no chance to have such a close contact with [Etel] energy.

He had seen [Eitel] energy in those images before, but his understanding of [Eitel] energy was not comparable to that of a layman like Hughes.

From the large amount of experimental data left by those scientists, Manxiu's understanding and utilization of [Eitel] energy can be said to be a theoretical giant.

Manxiu's whole body seems to be trapped in the energy core, although he can't wait to go to his laboratory immediately to study the energy of [Eitel].

But he still chose to stay where he was, "Hughes, I'll help you modify your boat now!"

"Uh...Why don't you study the energy core first, I'm not in a hurry."

"Really?!" Hearing what Hughes said, Manxiu immediately looked up at Hughes, "Can I really study this energy core first!!"

"Really, you should study it first." Hughes saw that after Manxiu got the energy core, he never looked away from it, and countless green codes flashed in his eyes.

Even when he was talking to Hughes, in the corner of his display screen, rows of codes floated quickly.

In this state, Hughes didn't dare to let him do other things. It's better to let him study the energy core first. As for his own ship, it's really not urgent.

"Then I'll go and have a look first, I'll be back soon!"

Manxiu held the energy core and ran to his own laboratory.

boom!
"Ouch!"

Hughes was on the spot, silently watching Manxiu hit the door, then got up and walked into his laboratory as if nothing had happened.

Hughes returned to his boat and lay down in his bedroom, "It's still more comfortable in my own bed."

Hughes stretched comfortably and closed his eyes.

Although the battle in the isolation area was not long, it was also very intense, and Hughes was not as relaxed as he appeared.

For the metal man's attack, Hughes chose to block it all.

Although Hughes was very relaxed in the battle, full of confidence in attack and defense, but only Hughes himself knew how terrifying the metal man's strength was.

After taking a nap on the bed for a while, Hughes was woken up by the sound of an explosion, and Hughes got up from the bed, "What the hell?!"

Hughes walked to the deck and looked in the direction of the explosion, a puff of black smoke came out from the crack in the door.

"Manhue?"

That's Manshew's laboratory.
