[You point the swords at the two people's feet towards the large tire, activating a high-frequency vibration mode. The two swords instantly take on an ethereal quality.]

The blade collides and rubs against a specially designed iron-bladed tire.

[Then came the swift and decisive severance!]

[You completely destroyed the tires on their legs. If they hadn't managed to pull back in time and forcefully twist their bodies, using the airflow from their exhaust pipes to shift their weight, even their legs encased in their exoskeletons would have been sliced ​​apart!]

"So strong!"

"What kind of knife is that?"

The air was cleaved by the high-frequency vibrations of the battle blade. You were as powerful as a god of death; each strike carved massive cracks into the two iron armors, revealing their intricate internal structure.

[Having been hit only three times, one of them had its exoskeleton destroyed because the circuitry of its manipulating power was severed.]

[He couldn't even continue fighting you; his entire body was pulled down by the armor he was wearing. The weak, powerless human body inside, without the mobility of the exoskeleton, was like being bound by hundreds of kilograms of iron shackles.]

Unable to move, unable to break free, they could only lie paralyzed in place, quietly awaiting their fate.

"So the person operating the machine system is really weak. They've reached the first level, but they don't even have a few hundred kilograms of strength."

"Once it loses power, the exoskeleton simply turns into an iron coffin."

[The other Ironclad armored figure tried to flee, but the wheel on one of its legs had been destroyed by you in the first exchange. With only one leg, it couldn't maintain its balance. Just as it leaped several dozen meters into the air, you, in hot pursuit, struck it down in two with a double strike, slicing it in two!]

"These two motorcycle-transformation exoskeletons are pretty good." After the battle, you estimated that the exoskeletons of your two opponents had a performance rating of around 0.4-0.5.

You approach the first wrecked Ironmo armor and use your battle sword to pry open its mask: "Any last words?"

To your surprise, the person inside was a middle-aged woman with piercings all over her face, and her teeth were yellowed from smoking.

She spits at you: "If you dare kill us, you're dead!"

[You kindly helped her up from her exoskeleton, letting her see her other accomplice, whom you had cut in two hundreds of meters away: "Since I've already done this, there's no other way. I'll just have to take one more of you with me before I die."]

The middle-aged woman didn't beg for mercy; she only said bitterly, "If I had known your exoskeleton was at a mid-range level... I should have turned and run!"

You know, if she really does that, you won't be able to catch up.

Even if technological creations like exoskeletons or mechs differ in functionality by several times, depending on the design, the weaker one can still possess superior attributes.

[Functionality refers to overall numerical values.]

"But unfortunately, your first attack was kicking me with the wheels on your feet."

You plunged a knife into her forehead.

On September 15th, your reputation spread far and wide in garbage disposal area number 612.

The six biggest garbage collectors here all know you exist.

Even some scavengers know about it.

A group of rangers in red capes and armor arrived in District 612.

Their exoskeletons varied in appearance, but they all shared a common feature: crimson paint and bright red capes.

These red-cloaked rangers roamed District 612, upholding justice and eliminating the henchmen of the tyrannical Trash King.

[Among those known to have been attacked are Mountain King and Motorcycle King... There are even rumors that Mountain King's right-hand man, "Pangolin," fought one of the Red-Cloaked Rangers deep into the junkyard, even collapsing the garbage mountain.]

[The two near-king level supreme experts are suspected to have perished together, and neither of them has returned.]

[These past two days, the Mountain King has been searching for you everywhere, but he hasn't found any trace of you outside the garbage dump, so he's concluded that you live in this garbage dump.]

But it couldn't be found; this garbage area is quite large.

[And that person might even be under the protection of some trash king!]

"40,000 square kilometers, which is one-tenth the size of Taiwan Province, and equivalent to a medium-sized country like the Netherlands, Denmark, or Switzerland."

Yun Shou analyzed, "But now I can travel over a trillion miles in one step... In this world of numerical expansion, a place that is 200 kilometers long and wide really feels too insignificant."

[On this day, you are treating Xu Yan's foot.]

[Now that your cultivation has reached the third stage of External Master, and your cultivation system is at the peak of the early Yellow level, your true qi strength has increased by more than half compared to when you broke through to the next realm more than ten days ago. Naturally, this sixth treatment will be completed much faster, finishing everything in half an hour.]

After the treatment, you helped her, allowing Xu Yan to gradually step onto the ground.

Then you release your hands.

At first, she was a little scared, her legs trembling, but she quickly realized that she could really control her legs and stand steadily, excitedly taking a step forward... then her body swayed and she fell to the ground.

You reacted quickly, grabbing her and helping her back into her wheelchair.

"Don't be in such a rush. Your legs aren't fully healed yet, and even if they do, it doesn't mean you can run right away."

"Just like a person with cerebral palsy whose intelligence has fully recovered doesn't mean they can immediately acquire the knowledge that a normal person would need to study for over ten years to acquire..."

You advised, "First, you must learn to walk."

"Do we have to...do it again?" Xu Wen was stunned. She thought she would be able to start walking properly in a few days.

"I've crossed more bridges than you've walked roads, I won't lie to you."

"stretch."

"What a hellish joke."

After saying that, you prepared to go back inside to improve your battle armor, upgrading it to the War Dragon IV.

But her hand was grabbed, and Xu Yan pleaded pitifully, "Brother Yunshou, will you teach me how to walk?"

【you:"……"】

[Oh well, let's just consider it a habit.]

After five consecutive days of fighting, I'm giving myself a break.

In the evening, Xu Yan blushed and asked, "Do you prefer white or black?"

"Blue, I mean the color blue," you said casually.

[I already guessed what gift she was going to give me: "Is it embroidery or flowers?"]

[That night, she found Xu Wen.]

[Xu Wen: "What do you mean...blue stockings?"]

"Holy crap! Did that bastard make some outrageous request of you?!" He immediately imagined a terrifying scenario and wanted to fight you to the death.

But she was stopped by her younger sister.

"I...I'll be able to walk soon, so...so I want a pair of socks...brother~"

Xu Wen hadn't seen his younger sister act so affectionately in two years, and with zero resistance, he nodded dumbly: "Buy, buy, buy..."
