This Summoner Is Too Powerful

No way around it, mechanical summon beasts definitely have their unique advantages for upgrades, but they also have a shortcoming: they’re money burners.

The upgrade process went exactly as Xiu Lijia predicted, taking only 52 minutes, less than an hour.

The energy cost Li Pu estimated didn’t hit 100K, it was handled with just 28K, even lower than during the second transition.

After giving some benefits to the two helpers, he hurriedly took his leave.

Because he could already feel that the reincarnation of the scarecrow was about to be completed.

Watching Li Pu leave with No. 2, Gan Wenlun and Xiu Lijia both remained silent, their expressions indescribable.

Actually, when No. 2 first cracked open, Gan Wenlun had already noticed a fact.

It was that its internal structure had undergone some subtle changes from the last time.

These changes might not be noticeable to Xiu Lijia, who was an assistant during the first transition.

But as the main doctor, oh no, as the main modifier, he clearly noticed the changes in No. 2’s structure from when it just completed the first transition.

And although these changes were subtle, the techniques were incredibly exquisite.

He was well aware, from often assisting with mechanical reincarnation modifications, what these changes represented.

It meant that No. 2 had gone through another reincarnation modification between the first transition and today’s transition...

(So this time it actually underwent the third transition?)

(This upgrade speed... is terrifying!)

After thinking it over, Gan Wenlun decided not to tell the junior sister beside him because he himself was too shocked to know how to express it.

As for what was on Xiu Lijia’s mind at this moment, it was another issue related to No. 2.

Halfway through the reincarnation modification, she remembered it.

This [Turbocharger] plan seemed so familiar!

Its prototype [Turbo Acceleration] is a very common plan on the market, only after her father’s hand did it get upgraded to [Turbocharger], she saw the semi-finished product on his computer during the winter break!

Did he get this plan from my dad?

How does he know my dad?

Thinking of this, Xiu Lijia decided to call him when she returned to the dormitory tonight to ask about it.

Riding on No. 2, Li Pu hurried to the training ground.

Now No. 2 has two round seam marks on the back of its head.

Whenever it wants, it can open the cover and activate the two large turbos hidden underneath.

Originally, Li Pu was eager to test the speed of these big turbos, but considering it’s within the campus, he decided against it.

If he ended up in the political and educational office because of racing, the scarecrow would probably laugh until its belly burst.

Since he wasn’t planning to drag race, he might as well max out No. 2’s level again, then carefully browse its current panel.

No. 2: 3rd transition LV60, Berserk

Strength: 3018→5213, A

Attribute: 10 mecha

Abilities: [Backup Machine][Void Stance][Recovery Progress ↑][Strong Colonization] (New)

Skills: [LV2 Password 2887 (A)][LV2 Real Guns and Cannons (A)][LV2 Healing Art (B)][LV2 System Lock (C)][LV2 Treasure Bounty (A) -45%]

Instrument: None

First, this exaggerated strength is already greater than the combined total of Bubu and Ugly Wolf.

Unfortunately, it’s fake, just an illusion brought by [Void Stance].

Apart from scaring enemies and boosting self-destruct power, it’s useless.

Then [Recovery Progress]: 75%

This inherent ability has improved once again.

At such a pace, Li Pu thinks there’s a high probability that at the 4th transition, No. 2 will be able to reach 100% recovery.

Thinking of the time when he’d own a complete mecha, he couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.

However, he can’t just focus on this and ignore further development, so he’s decided to put the 4th transition on hold until a suitable plan appears.

[Strong Colonization]: greatly increases capabilities of the flesh parts within the mecha

No. 2 doesn’t have any flesh parts inside at all.

This inherent ability exists entirely for his benefit when he "possesses" it.

After obtaining [Strong Colonization], Li Pu now has a new pressing task.

That is to accelerate the progress of sensory linking exercises with No. 2, so he can proceed with "possession" sooner.

He has a premonition that if he can don No. 2’s mecha, he might surpass Bubu and become his best fusion partner.

Of course, integrating with No. 2 would have another advantage over Bubu.

And that is style.

Once No. 2 becomes a mecha on his body, it would match its auxiliary role nicely.

"Eh?"

With that thought, Li Pu suddenly had an inspiration.

Because imagining this scene gave him a new train of thought.

The direction for No. 2’s 4th transition is set.

That is a plan that can greatly augment armor.

"I really am a genius. Having a clear goal is better than searching aimlessly."

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but pat No. 2’s machine casing: "How about it, ready for the 4th transition?"

Hearing this, No. 2 nearly disassembled on the spot.

[Thank you! Dear Summoner!]

Isn’t today enough with two rounds of torture already, more?!

Can’t the machine just be allowed to be an honest aircraft!

But fortunately, Li Pu was just saying it casually.

Even with a clear target, finding a plan still takes time.

Riding the trembling No. 2 to the training ground, everything was safe and sound.

The scarecrow was still soaking in the tank, while Fu Fu was still sleeping.

Glancing at Fu Fu, Li Pu was a bit regretful.

He feels this guy is the hardest one to find a reincarnation plan for.

No. 2, contracted at 0 transition, has now surpassed it contracted at 2 transitions, truly the later rising above the earlier.

[Quiet!]

It seemed to notice someone’s arrival just then, and Fu Fu flipped over.

But Li Pu noticed that this guy was just talking in its sleep.

"Should I really listen to Senior Chang’s advice?"

Looking at Fu Fu, he slightly frowned.

Previously during their casual chat in the mushroom realm, Chang Shoushang had introduced him to some situations.

Within Imperial University, there exist various and perhaps bizarre student associations, one of which is called the "Sleepy Beast Association".

It’s said the current president is a senior in the medical department.

Judging from the association’s name, it sounds like a bunch of summon beasts that love to sleep.

Maybe taking Fu Fu there for treatment could solve its bad habit of loving to sleep?

"I’ll jot it down in my little notebook, and check it out another day."

Thinking about it, he decided as such.

Waiting for the scarecrow would take some time, and having covered a lot of ground today, plus Fu Fu’s sleeping demeanor was somewhat soothing.

So as he waited, Li Pu found himself getting sleepy.

He simply lay his head on Fu Fu’s belly and fell asleep too.

A nervous No. 2, seeing this opportunity, quickly slinked away.

Afraid that the Summoner might wake up and grab it for another transformation.

Like that, Li Pu slowly drifted into sleep, entering a dream.

In the dream, he found himself transformed into a large, winged T-Rex.

This T-Rex, at the time, felt like an invincible existence, going wherever and eating whatever, only bothered by a medium-sized dragon wearing a bone cap that followed him everywhere, looking more and more annoying.

Unconsciously, he awakened, without knowing how long he had slept.

"Thinking about it, I haven’t been a dragon for quite a while."

He muttered to himself.

Due to the disconnect between the mushroom realm and Blue Star, he hadn’t entered the Cube Board Metaverse in some time.

[Grass!!!]

At this moment, from the tank came the firm shout of the scarecrow.

Li Pu turned towards the sound, just as it leaped high from the water and then freely dropped back into the tank.

Splosh!

Still as unreliable as ever.

[Caocao, Ca!]

Scarecrow: Summoner, Ben Cao has changed!

Standing in the now clear tank, it shouted its fixed line after each reincarnation.

"Let me take a look."

Li Pu didn’t respond directly, instead opening the panel.

Then a new inherent ability prominently appeared in front of him.

"Oh? [Hexagonal Warrior]?"

Seeing this name, his eyes lit up.

It seems quite impressive.
