Number One Dungeon Supplier

the first to stand up to follow Mari and Deng Long brought his food along since there was no much time to eat.

Man Man was directing a few of his crew members at the centre of Hangar when he was interrupted by Mari and the group of newly promoted privates.
He sighed momentarily before he thanked Mari for the handover.

”Alright chumps.
See that central block of concrete hanging at the top of the hangar? We are going there.
AND NO JUMPING! ” Man Man shouted before any of them had any wise ideas to jump up to their new destination.
They quietly followed Man Man up the elevator reaching the central block, which was dubbed the Hangar Control where the EMC Boss later introduced it as an area for the pilots to redesign their core units.

He booted the computers in front of them via a central terminal and the concrete walls around them retracted upwards, revealing a continuous glass panel that showed the workings of the hangar around them.
It gave them a good clear view of their Core Units from Hangar Control as compared to them looking upwards from the ground up.

”The interface for reconstructing your Core Units is simple and intuitive.
The AI that you encountered in the Core Unit ’s cockpit is the same as the one that will assist you in designing your robots. ” Man Man explained while giving them a short tour of the stuff they have in the Hangar Control.
But both Bu Dong and Deng Long had already dashed to their individual work stations and placed their phones as instructed by the terminal workstation.

Instantly, a rotating hologram of their Core Unit was visualised in colour with various options for them to select.
Since both of them were sitting side by side, Man Man used them as an example.
He asked the rest to gather round and used Bu Dong ’s terminal as the teaching console.

”You can see here.
We have a few parts for you to change into for free.
Call it a free service for reaching the rank of Private.
There is no way you can win any battles if you just use the Core Unit.
Now that you have reached Private rank, the queuing times affect you guys as well.
The previous mission was instant for you guys because it was a tutorial. ” Man Man said as he clicked on a console option and it revealed the parts available for them to choose.

There were only a few parts unlocked, but Man Man told them that there were daily and weekly missions which allowed the cultivators to earn more Star Cross Points as well as a chance to get new parts for free.
”Call it part of the reward.
You clear a mess for us, we supply a fresh new part for free. ” Man Man explained.

”Does that mean if my right arm is destroyed, I have to buy a new part again? ” Deng Long asked, and Man Man laughed loudly.

”We are not that evil, we will repair the part for you for free, but should you wish to sortie out fast, you will need to either pay us Star Cross Points to expedite the repairs or use an entirely new arm as we repair that old arm. ” Man Man said as he leaned its body on Bu Dong ’s chair when he explained the intricacies of the Supa Robot Wars.

”Speaking about sortie, the AI will guide you but standard ammunition would be provided for your missions.
Should you wish to purchase nonstandard ammunition like incendiary rounds, there will be cost of that too.
I can only say that the higher your rank, there will be discounts for repairs, parts and anything that cost Star Cross Points. ” Man Man added in his explanation to show that Supa Robot Wars had many hidden mechanics to be discovered.

”Alternatively, you are allowed to sortie without the arm, but you will be impaired offensively.
I am not saying you cannot do that, but it is not recommended to do that.
And before any of you have that crazy thought, there are no achievements coupled with going out with less than 100%.
Unless you want to brag about you being crazy and stupid enough to fight with only one arm, I guess then, by all means.
Go fucking ahead. ” Man Man answered Deng Long and showed them that there were durability levels on each particular part.

”Let ’s assume that your unit got obliterated by the enemy and you ’re left with nothing.
We can replicate the entire unit again for a fee.
Consider it something like your resurrection procedure in your world and it might not be cheap depending on the type of parts you were using.
Worst case, we do offer some level of … ’accommodations ’, especially for you Pandawans. ”

”Can you also use a new Core Unit and start over again instead? ” Bu Dong interjected his thoughts aloud and Man Man nodded his head.

”This is not a very fantasy based game like the Pet Card Arena.
This is meant for serious gamers, and a certain level of realism is applied to ensure that Newtonian Physics remained relevant.
Although here ’s a tip since you guys are cultivators.
You can get out of your cockpit and make a ruckus to destroy the enemy robot.
Use that information however you like.
It ’s free of charge. ” Man Man chuckled with a low voice and let them be for a while.

”I guess this is not my type of game at all. ” Shi Hui shrugged her shoulders and sadly, Jia Ying nodded in agreement.
Yue Han thought it was a lot of fun and something he could get immersed by it but lamented that the cost was immensely prohibitive.

”Ah, cost.
Yes.
Technically, you can play this game by just spending the ticket price with your Panda medals because you will receive a Gacha box each time you buy a ticket.
That Gacha box will give you two parts of various rarity.
That means you have a chance to obtain a rare part which will help you. ” Man Man added.

”The ticket also allows you to play three missions before you need to get another ticket to continue playing.
Unless, you wish to get the premium ticket… ” Man Man seemed to be whistling when he said that to attract both attention and ire from the entire group.

”And there will be limited event missions like cooperative raids and perhaps even battle royales for this.
Of course, those have yet to be implemented in the game.
Consider this as version 1.0 ” Mari who happened to enter the Hangar Control to hand over the physical license which Bu Dong and Deng Long applied for at the start of the game.

It was a rather sleek looking green metallic card with their rank imprinted as well as the squad they were currently in.

Squad #167.

”Even if you cultivators decide never to play Supa Robot Wars ever again, the Squad number is a way to say thank you for being part of Star Cross Heavy Industries.
You all will always be remembered as Squad #167. ” Mari smiled at them.
Out of the blue, Jing Ru decided to get a physical license too, and so did Yue Han.

”I suppose you will be sponsoring some of the game tickets if you want me to carry you. ” Jing Ru tapped on Bu Dong ’s shoulder and winked at him.
He sighed and smiled gently, which prompted Deng Long to look at him shamelessly.

”Dare to prey on a kid to finance your gaming addictions? You are a police officer, you should be better than that! ” Se Lang folded his arms and stared at Deng Long.

”ARGGGH FINE! I guess that means more overtime! ” Deng Long sighed as he pressed on a button that caused a series of glass walls to rise up, surrounding his terminal workstation.
”Now Please! Excuse me! Let me enjoy my robot making! ”

With that being said, Jing Ru and Yue Han joined them at the terminal workstations while the remaining four decided to leave the area and try out the other rides.
