Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 215 Frontline

Mary conversed with Shi Tian a bit more before having a few employees from Optic Mech carry the crates filled with Claymore Mines out.

They were to be transported to the frontline under the banner of the Flameheart Vanguard.

With the Flameheart Vanguard banner labeled on the vehicle, not a single military soldier would dare to blockade them or make things difficult for them.

After all, it was a bunch of supplies to be deployed on the frontline, and if a soldier were to delay it, it might cause unnecessary casualties. Then the consequences of such action were crystal clear.

"Anyway, you should really take a rest more instead of drinking coffee," Mary suggested once she was done with the arrangement and command with the other employees from Optic Mech.

"Well, I'm already awake and have a migraine now. Need the caffeine to stay alive." Shi Tian shrugged, sipping a few more times.

"Just stop drinking and sleep. You looked no different than Mandorales."

"Mandorales?"

"Yes, Mandorales, a grade B monster known for their dark eyes. They are quite big in physique and their skins are fur on the surface, but tougher than metals."

"I see…" Nodding his head, Shi Tian no longer bothered to inquire further. Panda eyes or a new species monster known as Mandorales eyes. Whatever it was, the fact remained that his eyes were truly dark.

He was really too exhausted to have a conversation.

Walking to the couch in the living room, he lay down on it and pointed at the door.

"Well, you're free to leave and please shut the door quietly." He yawned and said.

Meanwhile, Mary facepalmed, seemingly in disbelief at how idiotic Shi Tian had fallen.

He had just drunk coffee, so how the hell was he supposed to fall asleep?

Ignoring Shi Tian's pathetic state, Mary decided to do some investigation as to why he was so haggard. She walked around the apartment until she stumbled upon a room.

It was a room filled with numerous tools and the smell of oil and metals was emitting from it.

'It was indeed too much for him to handle alone.' She thought to herself. It wasn't that she didn't wish to assist him in crafting the Claymore Mines, but she was truly occupied with other important tasks.

It was impossible for her to split her attention and time to assist him.

Despite Shi Tian being in such a state, Mary was thoroughly impressed this time. To be able to craft so many Claymore Mines was no trivial matter.

And this time, Shi Tian had truly proven himself to be an adequate mechanic, albeit still an amateur.

Remaining silent, Mary simply closed the door and walked back to the living room, only to see Shi Tian had fallen asleep.

"Seems like not even caffeine could help you," She muttered softly, shaking her head. To be able to fall asleep after drinking caffeine could be an impressive feat, but also a clear definition that he was beyond exhausted.

While she was staring at the sleeping Shi Tian, her Cellos device rang a bit.

Picking it up, Mary asked, "What is it, Mechanist Isaac?"

Isaac Aaronax's voice emanated from the device, and his holographic image materialized. "Mary, have you told Nathan about the time and when the two of you are going to head out?"

Mary nodded her head. "Yes, I have informed him already."

"Good, and did you find out why he didn't respond to the call or text messages?"

Mary didn't bother saying anything and merely changed the perspective screen target to Shi Tian, allowing Isaac Aaronax to get a clear look at his current state.

Isaac Aaronax faked a cough, his expression was clearly slightly a bit embarrassed.

He naturally understood that the tasks Shi Tian had done in the past few days were tiring and tedious.

Even back when he was in his prime, he still doubted he would be able to produce so many Claymore Mines alone without any assistance.

"I see, Nathan is exhausted so he couldn't respond to you." Isaac Aaronax said in a profound tone.

"Indeed, he's better than someone that's constantly slacking and attempting to create new stuff, only for it to end up in a failure and wasting many resources, including valuable funds." Mary rolled her eyes.

"Hmm, what's that? Oh, you're calling for me." Isaac Aaronax acted as if he was urgently needed by someone.

He turned his attention back to Mary and said, "I'll talk to you later, Mary. I gotta go right now and deal with something."

And before Mary could even utter a response, Isaac Aaronax had ended the call already, not giving her a chance to take a jab at him any further.

What was worse was the fact that Mary didn't even show any expression, almost as if she was used to him acting like this already.

'This Mechanist Isaac needs a beating someday…' She exclaimed inwardly, putting away her Cellos device.

Used to his antics, Mary was too lazy to even bother with him. Instead, she gave a final glance at Shi Tian before deciding to silently leave the apartment, allowing him to take ample sleep.

As this was happening, in District B's outer layer, a group of people were standing by a cliff, horrified by the scene in front of them.

"How can such a huge monster wave exist hidden from our radar this whole time?" One person exclaimed in shock, his entirety covered in a bodysuit and wearing a mask.

"We're lucky that it's only this much thanks to the Claymore Mines and other traps. Had it not been for those, I'd be leaving this god-forsaken place already." Another person within the group said, shaking his head at the sight of the Gilaso variants.

Everyone else nodded their heads in agreement with that comment. This was the frontline and they were practically all risking their lives for money.

However, they also prioritized their safety as number one, because without surviving, how are they going to spend the money?

"We just need to hang in for two more days. I've heard that reinforcements are going to arrive soon and we can take a breather at last."
