Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 229 Integrated Chip

When Shi Tian asked to try, Mary wanted to tell him that it would be a waste of time.

It wasn't like she hadn't tried to think of a solution, only to end up with naught, resulting in her outburst.

However, when she saw how motivated and enthusiastic Shi Tian suddenly was, she couldn't bring herself to reject his request.

Thinking that it was best to let him try and then give up later, Mary sighed softly and nodded her head.

"If you want to try, then go ahead." She said without much emotion, almost as if she was not expecting any great result.

Shi Tian wasn't affected by her tone, given that he would react in the same way if their position was swapped.

Having an integrated chip in his brain was a secret that he had never told anyone.

What made it fascinating was the fact that it seemed to be unable to be detected by other people.

Isaac Aaronax had given his body a scan in the past, yet he found nothing abnormal.

Plus, Mary used a device that could detect items that had the capability to conceal their presence, but the device failed to detect the integrated chip in his brain.

Thus, it was clear that the integrated chip was different from other integrated chips.

"Mary, why don't you head out and catch up with others? We have been inside here for quite a while, so it would be suspicious if one of us kept staying here." Shi Tian suggested, clearly wanting to be alone for the experiment he was about to attempt.

"Whatever then. Just come out once you're done and don't put too much pressure on yourself if there's no result." Mary shrugged her shoulders and said. She even went as far as telling him that meeting setbacks was fine and that he should not be pressured for success.

Thanking her for the advice, Shi Tian watched as Mary exited the Iron Sentinel, leaving him alone.

Her action might not be seen as much, but it goes to show that she trusted him at the minimum, given that she left him alone with her precious Iron Sentinel.

If it were other people, she most likely would kick them out or remain here to watch them over.

Sometime later, Shi Tian waited for a brief minute or so, making sure the coast was clear.

What he was about to attempt was his greatest secret, and he could not afford it to be leaked anywhere else.

He knew the Iron Sentinel had a built-in surveillance camera. Therefore, he walked to the control panel and turned off the function.

"No peeking whatsoever is allowed." He exclaimed, having a gut feeling that Mary was secretly spying on him.

Though his gut feeling was technically unneeded, given that Mary herself had actively stopped any sort of recording on her end as well. Meaning that even if Shi Tian didn't turn off the function, Mary would still be unable to recover or see any footage of him doing so.

"Nathan is going to take a while, so what should I do?" Outside the Iron Sentinel, Mary was muttering about what to spend her time on. The strategic plan they had would not be put into action until 2 days later when the Gilaso variants had gathered their full army for another rampage.

Just when Mary was pondering what to do, Vanessa at this time also came out of her tent, seemingly trying to move around. Naturally, their gaze met each other, and the soldiers nearby pretended to be statues.

They had personally witnessed their commander being helpless at Mary, so why should they step into a tense scenario like this? They would rather die from the monsters than at the hands of these two women.

As the atmosphere turned rather palpable outside, Shi Tian on the other hand was now focused on the electrical circuit board.

Squinting his eyes, Shi Tian was locking dead-on at the rigged IC chip that Mary had marked. Staring at it for a good two minutes, Shi Tian remained perfectly still.

Alas, even after the intense staring, there was no change aside from his eyes turning somewhat watery for staring so long without blinking.

"Hmm, so staring at it won't work huh?" He rubbed his chin and muttered.

"Kabam, let me see it!"

"Inspection manifesto!"

"Oh mighty lord, let me analyze it!"

"You! IC chip! I demand to see the loophole!"

After shouting numerous mottos in hopes of getting a reaction from his integrated chip, there was nothing aside from him looking stupid.

Sighing exhaustedly, Shi Tian returned to his usual posture. He was posing left and right, acting as some clown or a model in hopes that something would occur.

Sitting on the floor, Shi Tian kept rubbing his chin, seemingly trying to figure out a way to communicate with the integrated chip in his brain.

And if he had to be honest, he would have never known about an integrated chip being injected into his brain if it weren't for the status screen display.

"Hmm, if I want to see my status screen, I don't even need to say it and the screen will display in front of me." Shi Tian mumbled.

Just thinking about wanting to check his status screen, the integrated chip automatically displayed it for him. There wasn't even a specific command or action that he needed to do to see.

It would just appear the moment he was thinking about it.

Following this thought process, Shi Tian seemed to have realized that he might have approached the method wrong from the start.

It wasn't that he could not interact with the integrated chip, but he was doing it extremely wrong. By shouting all those silly mottos, and funny postures, it was no wonder why the integrated chip had no reaction.

"The status screen would almost always include sarcastic comments from itself, so maybe the integrated chip isn't like those puppets in the training facility. It might have an empathic feeling." Shi Tian deduced.
