The Shadow Killer's smile froze on his face. He shrank his neck, turned his gaze to the Black Tortoise Guard, and made a gesture with a wink: "Big guy, bring out some solid stuff. We can't let the boss down."
The Xuanwu guard frowned, clearly feeling a bit pained, but he eventually pulled out another delicate component from his storage space and handed it over. "A virtual enhancement module, also C-grade. Add this, is that enough?"
The remodeler glanced down and then reluctantly nodded, his tone still cold: "Okay. But these circuit boards need to be readjusted, which will take at least half an hour."
Hearing this, Xiang Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't completely relax. He approached Shadow Killer and whispered, "Can you please stop joking like that? If this place gets really chaotic, we won't even be able to protect our mecha."
Shadow Killer shrugged nonchalantly, winked at Fan, and whispered, "Boss, don't be so nervous. We're here, what are you afraid of? At worst, we can just run away. I can run fast anyway."
Xiang Fan rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "With your 'fast escape', I'm afraid you'll be caught right away." Although his tone was helpless, his eyes were always scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
The engineer paid no attention to their conversation, his movements smooth and precise. He placed the array circuit board on the table and produced a set of precision tools. Spiritual energy flowed over the board's surface, emitting a faint glow, as if the components were being given new life.
The Xuanwu guard watched the other party's movements and whispered to Xiang Fan, "This man has good skills. He didn't find the wrong place."
Xiang Fan nodded slightly, but his gaze remained fixed on the surroundings. He knew very well that in a place like this, any slackness could cause the situation to get out of control.
Shadow Killer observed the Transformer's movements while muttering softly into the communication channel, "This guy has a really tough temper. I almost thought he was an NPC."
The Xuanwu guard whispered back, "You're the only one who talks too much. Stop causing trouble."
Xiang Fan watched the two men's chemistry and couldn't help but sigh. Despite appearing relaxed, he felt a pang of nervousness. The atmosphere here was too oppressive, like a powder keg poised to explode at any moment. He had to ensure everything remained stable before the deal was completed.
"We can't just wait for half an hour in vain." Xiang Fan whispered, a cautious glint in his eyes, "Be alert, don't let anyone find your retreat." The Shadow Killer and the Black Tortoise Guard looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and returned to their mechas to start alert.
The psychic light outside the cabin flickered faintly, casting a shadow on the three people's tense and alert figures, adding a sense of unease to this hidden corner.
