They themselves actually don’t even know how they just accomplished that.

Under normal circumstances, for them to replicate themselves and manufacture, it would take time and computational power.

But once they started replicating, they entered a certain selfless state, where everything happened naturally, and they completed the work rapidly.

Su Yu heard this and frowned slightly.

Relying on his abilities as a Mechanic, he could judge that they weren’t lying. They genuinely didn’t know how they achieved it; it was all instinctual.

This is interesting.

"You all continue,"

Su Yu, after pondering for a moment, said.

At the same time, he released more materials and energy for the Mechanical Race to use.

This time, the quantity and types of materials he released were more.

He wanted to see if these Mechanical Race members could complete rapid replication when faced with more types of materials.

"Yes, Mr. Su Yu."

The Mechanical Race, upon hearing this, dared not disobey and immediately got back to work.

The black mist quickly enveloped the new materials Su Yu released and devoured them rapidly.

At their rate of replicating once every minute, in one minute, their numbers would double, and in ten minutes, they’d increase a thousandfold.

In a hundred minutes, that would be a millionfold!

Although initially, they were just a tiny speck of dust, almost invisible to the naked eye, once scaled, their replication speed was terrifying.

The first batch of materials Su Yu released was only about one ton; it took them over two hours to finish devouring.

But the second time, Su Yu released a full one thousand tons, and it took them only about ten minutes to completely devour it.

And their scale expanded again, forming a dense mass suspended in midair.

"Mr. Su... Su Yu, is there something wrong with us...?"

At this point, even the Mechanical Race themselves noticed something amiss.

Their devouring and replication speed seemed too terrifying.

In just a short time, they expanded to this scale.

At this pace, if given time, wouldn’t it be long before they could devour the entire Mechanical City, converting it all into their Clones?

They looked at Su Yu worriedly, fearing that Su Yu might be wary of their power and decide to wipe them out.

Even though they’ve initially taken shape, they still have no power to resist Su Yu.

Fortunately, although Su Yu looked serious, he didn’t seem to intend harm; instead, he appeared interested.

Su Yu observed their state for a while, then said:

"That’s enough. Maintain your current scale for now. Unless I give the order, you are not to expand further!"

The Mechanical Race all breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and quickly replied: "Yes, Mr. Su Yu!"

It seems Su Yu does not intend to act against them.

Su Yu nodded and then transmitted some blueprints to them: "Next, manufacture equipment according to these blueprints and synthesize food."

Now that the Mechanical Race had formed a scale, they could use them to synthesize food.

The Mechanical Race quickly received the information and began synthesizing.

By studying the blueprint information transmitted by Su Yu, they started transforming the Clones into machines for synthesizing food.

The division of labor was clear: some synthesized starch, some synthesized protein, and some synthesized fat.

Su Yu provided them with raw materials and energy.

Their efficiency was high, and they quickly transformed the Clones into miniature production lines, initially synthesizing materials like starch and protein.

Starch was relatively simple, but protein was much more complex, requiring the synthesis of various amino acids first and then combining them into different proteins.

After initially synthesizing these things, Su Yu gave them additional blueprints.

He instructed them to use starch, protein, and fat to synthesize real food like flour, rice, and meat.

This was somewhat complex; flour and rice were relatively easy, quickly synthesized into something presentable.

But for meat, achieving a true meat texture and flavor required working from the minute structural level and adjusting based on protein types.

Proteins are diverse, and a structural difference can lead to vastly different properties and flavors.

Especially for this Mechanical Race that doesn’t eat meat and doesn’t know what it tastes like, synthesizing these things was somewhat beyond their capabilities.

It’s not that they couldn’t synthesize it, but the synthesized meat, although seemingly authentic on the surface, had strange flavors that didn’t need tasting to identify issues.

Su Yu released a flame to grill a piece of synthetic meat, and instantly, a pungent smell of burnt rubber filled the air.

"Looks like I need to find them some assistants to taste it and provide adjustment suggestions..."

Su Yu thought to himself as he looked at the grotesque synthetic meat.

To synthesize satisfactory flavors, taste testing would be best, but Su Yu wasn’t interested in eating these unfortunate creations.

After a brief thought, Su Yu sent a message to the Mechanic’s descendants, saying he was testing new food and needed people for taste testing.

As soon as this message went out, the descendants of the Mechanic were instantly excited.

Free food?

In a short time, a large number of Mechanic’s descendants enthusiastically signed up.

Su Yu was somewhat speechless at these foodies and randomly selected dozens of people.

After a while, dozens of Mechanic’s descendants were in front of Su Yu.

Some familiar faces were among them, such as the little girl Zhou Qing, who was the first Su Yu saved.

This little one had been in Mechanical City for only a few days but had become a bit rounder, almost turning into a chubby little girl.

Su Yu looked at these folks and chuckled to himself, then told them about the synthetic food plan.

Upon hearing that Su Yu had such a "great" plan, they were so excited they were almost in tears.

They had been worrying these past few days, fearing they had eaten too much and that the city’s food supply might not be enough.

Now, with Su Yu’s synthetic food plan, as long as it’s completed, there wouldn’t be any problems.

"Mr. Su Yu, don’t worry, leave it to us!"

They were thrilled and had no objections to the task of taste testing.

Previously, they had been eating recycled synthetic food in the Manifestation Space for ten thousand years.

The raw materials for that synthetic food were disgusting, poorly processed, and synthesized from basic starch and amino acids, making the taste indescribable.

Compared to those disgusting things, these grotesque meats were nothing; at least they looked like meat and the raw materials were surely clean.

They immediately grabbed the grotesque meat to taste, commenting afterward with earnestness.

Upon hearing their feedback, the Mechanical Race promptly made targeted adjustments.

The research into food synthesis quickly got on track.

However, synthesizing delicious meat in a short time was still challenging.

Soon, the Mechanic’s descendants began to wear pained expressions as they ate.

At first, they didn’t think much of it; these synthetic meats, however unpleasant, couldn’t be worse-tasting than the synthetic food they had before, could they?

They soon realized they were too hasty.

They had been feasting and reveling, getting used to normal food. Now, eating these grotesque meats, they simply couldn’t swallow them down.

Yet, they had to keep taste testing for the research, eating more and more.

They could only encourage themselves, knowing they had to endure these tastes for Mr. Su Yu’s "great" plan.

With determined expressions, they kept shoving the synthetic grotesque meat into their mouths, making Su Yu a bit unable to bear watching.

However, since they willingly ate these things, Su Yu could hardly be blamed.

Moreover, Su Yu had no time to care about them; he had his own matters to attend to, which was studying the secrets of the Miniature Mechanical Race.

Although the Miniature Mechanical Race had ceased expansion, their terrifying replication ability had made a deep impression on Su Yu.

If they were to replicate infinitely, Su Yu suspected the entire planet could be devoured by them!
