At 10:06, the Dark Tide suddenly receded like a wave, the deep night that had devoured the sky instantly collapsed, replaced by the clear Hawaiian morning sunlight pouring down. The sky revealed a gem-like azure, with not a cloud in sight. The warm glow wrapped around the entire coastline of Oahu Island.

Lin Xian stood at the coastal port of a wealthy estate, having devoured the half-sunken yacht. The sea breeze gently patted the rocks and beach, stirring up tiny waves. The salty sea air mixed with the fragrance of subtropical vegetation, permeating the air with a laid-back, tranquil scent. He looked into the distance; this once vacation paradise was now shrouded in silence, yet such a place gave this group of apocalypse refugees a rare sense of peace.

Whoosh~

Lin Xian hadn’t slept all night and had a fruitful haul. Apart from scavenging a large amount of supplies from the city, Lin Xian’s Mechanical Source Points surged by at least ten thousand overnight, directly breaking through the Level 7 Mechanical Heart.

"And then there’s this blueprint."

Opening the Research and Development Center, Lin Xian pulled up the blueprint of the Interstellar Raider XR01 Mecha. This set of Mecha had performed well in Dawn City, becoming the core power in conjunction with the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird against S-Class Abnormal Bodies at the city walls. Its 60-meter size could be described as colossal, but Lin Xian did not plan to manufacture this set of Mecha.

Firstly, the manufacturing time is extensive. Even using six construction sequences, it would take at least over 144 hours, consuming a vast amount of materials and energy, preventing Lin Xian from manufacturing other items during this period, which is quite troublesome.

After entering the oceanic orbit, considering the risks, Lin Xian prioritized manufacturing the Sky Dome Train Arsenal Ship. Once encountering problems, the Sky Dome Train is his last resort in the Pacific Ocean.

And facts proved his decision to be absolutely correct. In terms of comprehensive combat capability, the Interstellar Raider XR01 is in an awkward position, unable to pose a threat when facing a single S-Class. Meanwhile, Lin Xian’s elite squad can fully handle anything below S-Class, making it impractical for Lin Xian. However, for the interstellar army, this super large mecha with single-person neural synchronization operation would undoubtedly be a main force weapon in future defensive battlefields.

Therefore, Lin Xian’s current manufacturing direction, besides the drones, is the Iron Man Dragon Girl mecha army jointly developed with Viola. If Lin Xian is to manufacture a super large mecha, it has to be at least above the level of the No.1 Machine. Thus, he is only quite interested in the planet-level Planet Titan suggested by the Research and Development Center.

Lin Xian once again placed the blueprint into the Research and Development Center, and at this time, the light screen once again manifested.

[This blueprint level has reached [Heavenly God Level], to conduct [Planet-level] research, a Mechanical Manufacturing Level of 7 is required]

[Planet-level Titan Mecha (Blueprint) research time: ****]

[Required computational power: 6000 quantum bits joined]

The contents this time were essentially unchanged from the last.

"The Mechanical Heart has already been upgraded to Level 7, just lacking in mechanical manufacturing. That should be quick, perfect for developing proficiency by mass manufacturing the mecha army..."

"And then there’s this computational power." Lin Xian frowned at this moment: "Viola and Grace both have 8192 quantum bits of computational power as Intelligent Brains, which should be up to standard, but the problem is how to connect them?"

"Do I throw Viola into the Black Star Forge as well?"

This posed some trouble. Currently, Viola is the main control core of his Sky Dome Train and Drone Swarm. Without Viola, the twenty of them here couldn’t operate this 5-kilometer-long interstellar giant ship, and Grace is now above the South Heavenly Gate...

After some consideration, Lin Xian decided to first boost his Mechanical Manufacturing Level. This would allow him to find out the exact time frame given by the Research and Development Center.

Lin Xian immediately entered the Black Star Forge Space. At this time, the Iron Man Dragon Girl mecha blueprint was not yet completed, and he did not let the construction sequences idle. He loaded all six construction sequences with automated manufacturing tasks, all used for producing functional drones for transport, stereoscopic construction, and maintenance industrial robots. The more drones, the better, as they can greatly improve Lin Xian’s manufacturing and maintenance efficiency.

Now, nearly 900 communication relay stations had been deployed across the city overnight. This was all thanks to these drones, allowing Lin Xian to quickly monitor most areas of the city and connect to the Sky Dome’s signal, safeguarding the team members’ exploration.

"Ant Worker-7" Nano 3D Printing Construction Robot Manufacturing Completed, Mechanical Manufacturing Proficiency +15

"Steel Vein" Pipeline/Circuit Laying Robot Manufacturing Completed, Mechanical Manufacturing Proficiency +12

"Silver Shuttle-α" Magnetic Levitation Cargo Transport Robot Manufacturing Completed, Mechanical Manufacturing Proficiency +11

With all six construction sequences fully operational, it took less than 5 minutes to manufacture a drone that was charged and ready. Lin Xian’s materials were abundant enough that, at this rate, 12 drones could be produced within an hour, nearly 300 various industrial drones in a day. With such an effort, his mechanical manufacturing could be upgraded within about a day.

The team entered a rest period. After dawn, Lin Xian did not assign any specific tasks, though a few groups of team members still went into the city to search. Perhaps they enjoyed the thrill of adventure and acquiring supplies, or maybe they just couldn’t stay idle and wanted to roam this island city. Early in the morning, Ning Jing, Xiao Qing, and Ah Bai headed towards the affluent district to explore, Shu Qin Building Sha Sha went towards the casino city, while Shi Zhi and Ryuji planned to visit several nearby small islands. Sun Yuzhen expressed her willingness to help and followed along.
