“The engine doesn’t need to be replaced. The battery life is acceptable for now, and as long as we bring extra energy stones, we can successfully explore the terrain!”

The main components of the whole climbing car, the tire and engine were both solved, so there was no need to delay the manufacturing process further.

Immediately, they replaced the prototype version of the climbing car with new energy stone batteries. Su Mo drove while Ai Jianfeng and Lu Kuan were the passengers as they quickly headed toward the village.

…

“Was it a success?”

In the underground shelter, Su Wei, who was still researching the robot, raised her head in surprise as she saw the three return with joy and hurried forward to ask.

“Yep…

“The engine and tire issues have been resolved. What’s left is to solve the material issue!”

Su Mo met with the robot that had a happy expression.

He was startled and became a little embarrassed.

After recruiting Lu Kuan and the others from the expeditionary base, he had nothing but he still requested a lot from the research scholars.

Technology, materials, supplies, and equipment.

Not including the ones that were forcibly annihilated by the game, almost every item brought out was utilized to their extremes by Su Mo. He tried to make the most out of everything as much as possible.

However, right now…

The thought of burning and melting the body that they had lived in before into a vehicle for him to travel made him very embarrassed to even ask the question.

“It’s okay. No one uses the body anymore. I usually live inside the virtual reality so I don’t really need it!

“You can go ahead and use it if you want, shelter leader!”

Aware of Su Mo’s hesitation, Su Wei smiled and exited the body with understanding, leaving only soft laughter spreading throughout the shelter’s first floor.

Su Mo knew that they were not doing it to be polite.

Just yesterday, after the survival points became abundant, he also proposed in front of Su Deben to resurrect Su Wei and come to reality to experience having a body again.

The result was…

Su Deben shook his head.

Su Wei also shook her head.

The reason was very simple. First, because of her personality, Su Wei was a homebody, so even if she was resurrected in reality, she would never step outside of the house. There was no need for her to have a physical body that would only waste time eating and sleeping.

Secondly, it was because the current state of the basin was unable to provide her with a suitable research environment.

Not even considering large-scale facilities and basic networks, there were hardly any computers in the basin. Even the only two computers they had were fully occupied by people like Lu Kuan most of the time.

Considering all these facts, it was better for her to stay inside the virtual reality, which was much more comfortable and efficient for her research.

“Go ahead and melt it! This thing would’ve become my inner demon and given me a headache in a few years if you hadn’t come along!

“It wouldn’t be a waste of our efforts devoted to making it if it would be able to play a part in the wasteland!”

Walking forward, Lu Kuan sighed and touched the robot’s arm, and then the exposed skeleton of the robot.

Memories of the construction of the body flashed in his eyes.

The Level 5 alloy had amazing strength. After it was made into the shell of the car, even a simple bomb would not be able to destroy its structural rigidity.

Logically speaking, smelting such metals would require an extremely high temperature of more than 3,000 degrees.

However, thanks to Lu Kuan and others who had previously extensively researched it, they had long mastered the know-how and method of smelting.

The whole process would not be complicated. They just needed to prepare a magical solution, apply it to the outside of the alloy, and place it on fire.

They would be able to achieve basic melting at about 1500 degrees.

This temperature was within achievable range with the basic mechanical facilities in the territory!
