The cannons were arranged properly, and Lucas had one yellow capsule left in his hand.
At this moment, he didn't know what he wanted the most.
Skills, weapons, miraculous elixirs...
"Well, any of them would do..."
The third capsule was opened.
[Congratulations, Host, on obtaining a robot chip.]
[Congratulations, Host, on an increase in agility attribute, Agility +15.]
A chip for the mute girl?
Lucas was a bit surprised and excited.
Before opening the third capsule, he had never thought of getting a chip for the mute girl.
He clicked on the description.
[Robot Chip]
Selectable chip skills: language ability, service ability, and body toughness upgraded to yellow grade.
"Now... how should I choose?"
Looking at the three options, Lucas instantly became indecisive.
Lucas had thought more than once that it would be nice if the mute girl could speak. He would have someone to confide in without worrying about others knowing.
Since his rebirth, Lucas often felt lonely but didn't want to engage in too much communication with others.
In Lucas's understanding, talking too much could potentially lead to trouble.
If it were the mute girl, this problem wouldn't exist as she only followed Lucas's commands.
Actually, Lucas didn't even consider the service option. It wasn't important. After all, she wasn't a real person, even though the mute girl's skin looked very realistic, it was ultimately fake.
What Lucas was currently struggling with was language and level enhancement.
Honestly, if the mute girl could occasionally go on a killing spree, it would not only increase Lucas's safety but also save him a lot of trouble.
Language or level enhancement...
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Caught in a dilemma, Lucas turned his head and glanced at the mute girl sitting quietly with an expressionless face. Suddenly, a strange thought came to his mind.
Could the mute girl also want to communicate with people and speak?
At that moment, Lucas remembered the scene at the arms factory when the mute girl was hit by that powerful evolved creature and her seemingly unleashed killing spree.
"Language ability."
"Well, since I now have the curved blade capable of killing yellow-grade insects, if I encounter one, I can handle it myself... Um, I'll give the curved blade to the mute girl."
In a short period of time, Lucas changed his mind several times, but he didn't hesitate anymore and chose the language chip.
After making the choice, Lucas saw a faint halo emanating from the mute girl's body.
The halo lasted for a very short time, just a blink of an eye.
Lucas walked up to the mute girl, extending his right hand.
"Hello, I'm Lucas. Nice to meet you!"
As he spoke, Lucas's attitude was sincere, with a slight smile on his face, as if he were truly getting to know a new friend.
Upon hearing Lucas's words, the mute girl stood up and faced Lucas, extending her right hand as well.
Lucas shook her hand and felt a good grip.
At that moment, the mute girl also started speaking.
"Hello, I'm Lucas. Nice to meet you!"
Her voice sounded like that of a young girl, very gentle. Lucas found it soothing and initially thought the mute girl's voice would be a synthetic machine sound.
However, why was she repeating his words?
Lucas looked at the mute girl and realized she didn't seem very intelligent.
"No, you're not Lucas, I'm Lucas. You're the mute girl, got it?"
Lucas said again, feeling foolish himself at that moment.
"No, you're not Lucas, I'm Lucas. You're the mute girl, got it?"
The gentle voice of the girl surrounded Lucas's ears, and he instantly regretted it.
What was the point of this communication?
Exchanging words seemed pointless!
Exchanging a yellow capsule for a recording device, Lucas felt his heart bleeding, thinking he was truly foolish.
"No regrets now. Sigh, forget it..."
Lucas gestured for the mute girl to sit back in her place, and he returned to his own seat, preparing to study the purposes of the three blank yellow blueprints.
When he had chosen where to place the Avenger Cannon earlier, it reminded Lucas to strengthen the defense of Blue Sky Lake with heavy weapons like a turret or cannon.
Actually, Lucas only had one yellow blank blueprint available at the moment.
The other two were meant to be used for crafting yellow bullets for the cannon, and one was left as a backup.
Lucas never considered himself to have a particularly good brain, capable of thinking ahead.
Leaving one yellow blank blueprint would prevent him from feeling helpless when he urgently needed something.
Finally, Lucas drew a blueprint for a cannon based on the Avenger Cannon's appearance.
This homemade weapon couldn't be upgraded and was not as powerful as what the system provided.
Lucas drew it that way just so the bullets could be shared with the Avenger Cannon.
After completing the blueprint, Lucas stored it away and prepared to materialize the cannon using yellow insect shells as basic materials once he obtained them.
He then proceeded to draw 10,000 yellow bullets.
These 10,000 yellow bullets exhausted the remaining yellow insect shells Lucas had, as well as three boxes of ammunition for automatic rifles.
At this moment, Lucas felt relieved, as the pressure in his heart decreased by more than half. Even if yellow insects appeared, he felt confident.
Looking at his Agility attribute, which had already reached 91, Lucas was satisfied. With another yellow capsule, his Agility would become extraordinary.
Lucas could now feel how much more agile his body had become compared to before.
The large bus with the massive cannon drove from the top of the mountain to the square below.
Everyone who saw the additional item on the bus felt a chill in their hearts.
If this thing were aimed at a person and fired, their body would likely turn to pieces instantly.
Lucas opened the bus door and got out along with the mute girl.
Then, something unbearable happened to Lucas.
From the moment they got off the bus, the mute girl kept following Lucas closely. Whenever Lucas said something, she would repeat his words.
Everyone who spoke to Lucas had a surprised expression, especially Anna and Cobras, the few people who had followed Lucas from the beginning. Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost.
The mute girl had never uttered a single word before.
Cobras and Anna had tried to speak to the mute girl many times, but she always walked away without saying a word.
"Commander, can the mute girl speak now?"
Cobras tentatively asked Lucas, even though Lucas had asked them not to call him that anymore, but it seemed Cobras hadn't taken it to heart.
To prevent the mute girl from repeating her words, Lucas simply nodded, his face slightly awkward.
In the end, Lucas had the mute girl return to the bus on her own. Otherwise, he would have no chance to communicate with others.
"She's learning to speak, and she'll be normal in the future."
Lucas didn't know how to explain the mute girl's situation, so he simply brushed it off with a vague explanation to Cobras and the others.
Lucas found Cobras and the others because he was planning to go out and visit the nearest city.
His reasons were to gather information, collect some crafting materials, and also obtain some insect cores to enhance his strength.
