Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 776 - 391: Gaseous Planet, Mysterious Core, 10 Years of Research!_2

~6 minute read · 1,419 words

Continuing to submerge, finally, he saw a "planet".

Inside the gaseous giant, there was another planet, which was the core of the gaseous giant.

Su Yu saw that the core was even larger than the Ruins Star, its surface covered with yellow-green liquid, which was liquid hydrogen mixed with other substances, forming an ocean.

Under the violent storms, waves hundreds of kilometers high swept across this ocean, and beneath them, he could faintly see its solid core.

Su Yu saw inside that solid core... a mechanical device!

Inside the core of this giant liquid planet, there was actually some kind of mechanical device!

Though he only glimpsed for a moment, Su Yu saw clearly that the core was completely mechanized.

The entire core was composed of complex and precise mechanical devices!

Various mechanical components were slowly operating, each component measuring thousands of kilometers, and they emitted mysterious flashes as they functioned.

To know that this core was several times larger than the entire Ruins Star, and it had all been transformed into a mechanical device, what great power that must be!

Su Yu only took one look and was instantly horrified, not daring to linger, and hurriedly flew upwards.

Quickly, Su Yu left the atmosphere of this planet, broke free of its orbit, and then flew away without looking back.

Su Yu was fleeing.

There was no other way; the mechanical device inside that core was too terrifying!

Su Yu actually sensed no energy flow, aura, or anything from that mechanical device in the core; it seemed to be lifeless.

But anyone with half a brain would know that such a core was transformed into a mechanical device and was apparently still operating, suggesting that its rank was at least Fifth Rank, possibly even higher.

Su Yu feared that if he lingered a bit longer and startled that thing, any casual attack could kill him outright.

So he fled quickly.

He even worried that he had already alarmed that unknown mechanical device, and its weapon systems might have targeted him.

After flying for more than ten hours and over a billion kilometers, Su Yu finally felt somewhat at ease, as it seemed that the device hadn’t targeted him or had no intention of attacking.

Su Yu continued flying back, frowning and pondering: "What is that thing? Some kind of Imperial planet-destroying weapon? But it doesn’t seem like it..."

Su Yu knew that the Empire was technologically advanced back then and possessed planet-destroying weaponry.

It wouldn’t be strange for the Empire to have built such a mechanical planet.

However, the mechanical style of the thing he just saw was completely different from any mechanics Su Yu had seen before.

Su Yu was an expert in mechanics, not only having inherited the Empire’s Mechanic knowledge but also that of the Mechanical God, giving him a unique understanding of various mechanical structures and styles.

To the untrained eye, it all looked like a bunch of metal parts, but Su Yu could see the "style," an abstract quality.

Su Yu determined that the style of that mechanical star core was entirely different from the style of the Mechanical God and the Empire.

Thus, Su Yu suspected that the mechanical star core was not of Imperial origin.

Of course, it could also be that the powerful mechanic who built this planet had an eccentric personality and unique style, who knows.

After all, this place is some sort of "future possibility," the future is endless, and anything could happen. Who knows who built this mechanical star core, for what purpose or what function.

This bizarre space-time has too many unknowns.

This exploration yielded no clues but raised even more questions.

If Su Yu were at the Fifth Rank level, he might figure out a way to explore that mechanical star core closely, which could potentially be hugely beneficial.

But with his current strength, going there is just seeking death.

So Su Yu wisely decided to stay far away, not to provoke that mechanical star core, and quickly find a way to leave this desolate place.

"Lord Su Yu, that was..."

The five Galaxy Warriors were also startled and were even afraid to breathe too heavily.

Experienced as Galaxy Warriors, they knew the depths of the universe held many terrifying dangers; that mechanical star core might be one of them.

Now that they had distanced themselves, they dared to speak out.

Hearing this, Su Yu responded, "It should be controlling the absorption of the planet’s energy."

Although he didn’t know the function of that mechanical star core, he guessed that since it was inside the planet, it was probably related to the planet’s energy.

Su Yu had just pondered how powerful it would be to use the energy from that gigantic gaseous planet to break through to the Fifth Rank, only to find a true entity moments later.

"Then... what should we do?"

Upon hearing this, the Galaxy Warriors were even more shocked. They had some knowledge about planetary energy and knew this energy is extremely powerful, crucial for nurturing Transcendents.

Now that the mechanical star core was absorbing the energy of such a massive planet, how powerful was it?

"Don’t bother with it."

Su Yu said calmly.

Seeing Su Yu’s calmness, the Galaxy Warriors felt much more at ease.

They even speculated whether the mechanical star core was some secret Imperial weapon. Lord Su Yu was so calm, did he already have a method to control and utilize that mechanical star core?

These guys were wildly speculating, unaware that what Su Yu really meant by "don’t bother" was that it’s useless to intervene.

If that thing moves, even ten times stronger Su Yu would still be instantly killed, so what’s the use?

However, Su Yu estimated that the thing wouldn’t move easily; controlling and absorbing planetary energy is complicated. Seeing the violent energy of the gaseous planet, the object likely hadn’t succeeded yet and probably didn’t have time for a passing human like Su Yu.

"Better to return first, quickly complete the research on the Time Mechanic, I’m desperate to leave this damned place..."

Su Yu thought to himself.

Twenty more hours later, Su Yu returned to the previous planet, then submerged again to the great underground cavern over a thousand kilometers down.

This time, Su Yu directly deactivated the Sunshine Transformation and entered with his true form.

Upon returning, he immediately instructed the Galaxy Warriors: "I need to seclude myself to research a way to leave here. Manage the population well and don’t disturb me."

The Galaxy Warriors, being extremely loyal, immediately complied upon hearing Su Yu’s order.

Su Yu locked himself in the Energy Tower, starting his dedicated research.

This research lasted a full ten years!

To create a profession, especially one in the Time System, is no easy task. This was the longest research Su Yu ever conducted.

Since acquiring the Profession Panel, it was the first time Su Yu had so much free time.

Fortunately, this mysterious space-time was a fragment of future time.

No matter how much time Su Yu wasted here, upon returning, maybe only a few seconds passed in reality, or perhaps he’d go back to a past time point, not only not wasting time but gaining it.

So Su Yu wasn’t afraid of wasting time; he could research slowly.

Su Yu worried more about the dark, eerie power in the shadows, which, over time, might erode the area more.

And whether that mysterious mechanical star core inside the gaseous planet would suddenly act one day, swallowing both Su Yu and this entire planet.

Fortunately, over these ten years, the dark power’s erosion was present but not severe, likely blocked by the planet’s energy.

The mechanical star core also hadn’t appeared; with hundreds of millions of kilometers between them, Su Yu couldn’t observe the situation there and could only comfort himself that the thing was still silently absorbing and controlling the gaseous planet’s energy without any disturbance.

During these ten years, Su Yu wasn’t cooped up in the energy tower’s laboratory the whole time; he occasionally went out, building new energy towers and various strange mechanical devices across the planet.

Today, his research seemed to reach a stage conclusion, and he summoned ten Galaxy Warriors, stating solemnly: "Today, it’s time to start the formal experiment!"
