NANO-MACHINE.

The mark that appears on the arm after the nanorobot is injected into the human body is called NANO-MACHINE.

People born on Mars all have such things, and NM can bring very convenient abilities to the owner, such as direct manipulation of certain things, and direct and precise control through a method similar to mental connection.

Just like spiritual resonance, it enables the survivors to better control the industrial equipment in the research institute. This feels a bit like a pseudo-transformer, allowing people to establish a direct connection with machines.

But after Xiao Yun knew this, he didn't think about this. Instead, he felt that the threshold to become a knight seemed to have become lower.

This thing is very similar to human body modification technology but not entirely human body modification technology. It is equivalent to adding a plug-in that can be generated by technical means to the user. Various devices can be linked through this plug-in hub for use, reducing the burden on the user. It can be said to be very useful, and it is a good gain after coming to this world.

As for how this technology will be used in the future, whether it will be developed independently or incorporated into other projects, that is not something Xiao Yun will worry about.

But Xiao Yun knew that Leonard would definitely be happy next, as the problem of the Iron Man floating cannon, which had not made any progress before, would most likely be solved through this technology.

but……

Xiao Yun scratched his hair: "Wearing a mask will make people smarter? I can even think of such a thing."

Xiao Yun couldn't tell whether wearing a mask gave him a brain, but he was also very surprised that he could connect these two things together. This was probably what it meant to grow up.

Mei San headed to the southwest to investigate a possible prisoner camp. In an environment like Mars, anything strange would be very conspicuous, so even if the distance was far, if something of different colors suddenly appeared on a barren ground, it could be seen at a glance.

However, the power of one person has its limits. Mei San searched for a whole day but found nothing. After getting permission, he returned to his destination.

Xiao Yun did not blame Mei San. It was normal to find nothing in one day. Not to mention one day, even ten days without any gain was normal. Although Mars is smaller than the Earth, it is still a planet after all. To find a point on a planet without clear guidance is to rely on luck. It is normal not to find anything, but it would be strange to find it by just looking around.

"Boss, something's happening."

Xiao Yun, who felt that he had overused his brain recently and was taking a good rest, was suddenly awakened by Mei Yi. When he opened his eyes and saw Mei Yi's silly little face with a serious look, Xiao Yun suddenly understood something.

Staying next to a fool won’t necessarily make you a fool, but you will definitely bear the pressure that the fool brings.

"call……"

Xiao Yun took a deep breath and calmed down. He calmed down the frightened heartbeat and said unhappily, "Speak!"

"There's movement from the battleship No. 1 discovered."

Mei Yi directly slapped the mask on Xiao Yun's face. In Mei Yi's opinion, no matter how much he said, it would not be as clear as seeing with his own eyes.

It was the feeling of something suddenly being slapped on the face... It wasn't a slap, but it directly covered his face. The moment Xiao Yun felt a pressure, he quickly raised his hand and pushed Mei Yi away.

Because they were wearing masks, an AR head-up display appeared in front of them. A screen popped up and countless warships appeared on the screen, just like the scene they had seen before. Countless Jupiter Lizard warships surrounded the ship that No. 1 and his team had discovered before. At the same time, another battleship was also surrounded.

Why do I say again? This second battleship is the one that was surrounded before and escaped.

"Who's there now?"

Number One's voice appeared: "Boss, no one is there. This is the remote monitoring system I installed earlier."

In order to be prepared for the right time to launch the battleship just in case, No. 1 left a lot of monitoring measures around the battleship. Unexpectedly, such a scene was transmitted back after only one day.

At the place where the two warships were surrounded, Xiao Yun also saw a large green pepper that seemed to have grown out of the ground and was in a working state: "Didn't you find this thing when you went there before?"

Number One: "I'm sorry, Boss. It must have been buried underground and not deployed, so we didn't find it. But Boss, I'm afraid the ship is doomed. Are we just going to watch it?"

Xiao Yun said: "There is no escape? Isn't there a way to escape next to it?"

"Route?" Number One immediately reacted: "Boss, you mean that the ship will escape through that big green pepper?"

The big green pepper has the function of teleportation, and it happened to appear next to the two surrounded ships, and nothing has come out of it until now. Isn't this clearly telling the surrounded people that it is a passable road?

The cut of the green pepper was so big after it was opened, it was simply tempting the two ships, telling them to come and drill into it, come and drill into it.

Moreover, with that kind of paint and color scheme, it is obvious that only the ship treated as the protagonist would have this look, so how could it be left behind so easily?

As expected, the red and white warship rushed directly into the unfolded green pepper without stopping, while the other warship, which was the one discovered by No. 1 and his men, turned around and blocked the passage in front of the green pepper and was soon shot down to the ground.

"Mei Er and Mei San, go see if there are any survivors and bring them back. Be careful not to be discovered."

Number One sighed as he looked at the sunken warship. Finding an intact warship could have been the last insurance and retreat, but who would have thought that the ship would suffer such an unexpected disaster.

But if all these dozen people were Iron Man, wouldn't this situation not have occurred?

"Boss, I want to apply for the Iron Man enhancement transformation after I return."

Xiao Yun had no objection: "Think it over carefully. There is no need to rush into this kind of thing. It is better to wait a little longer. After a technological breakthrough, you may not need to transform your body to complete the Iron Man costume, and your growth potential will become greater."

Number One said: "Thank you for the reminder, Boss. I will think about it carefully."

In fact, it's not that the transformation of Tejaman is bad. This technology is already very mature in Radam's hands, and after subsequent transformation and upgrading, it is better than the original one in Radam's hands. Aren't the two brothers Xiangyu Takano strong? They are ridiculously strong, and they may be able to evolve.

In terms of pure combat power, it is quite good, and as long as it can reach the level of the Xiangyu Takano brothers, it can be regarded as the ceiling level of individual combat power for a very long time, at least stronger than the current Meiyi.

However, if the Iron Man technology and the Plant Clan's armor technology could be completely integrated, it would definitely be possible to create a stronger new type of armed warrior. This is one of the reasons why Xiao Yun did not let anyone around him undergo the Iron Man transformation.

In fact, it was also because Xiao Yun felt it was strange to have a few more things in his stomach. He himself found it a little difficult to accept. Transformation would never be as good as natural evolution. He always felt that better things were still to come and never thought about making himself into a mess.

But if this is the only option now and in the future and if there is a breakthrough in technology, then Xiao Yun is not actually against the idea of ​​transforming the Iron Man.

If No. 1 and the others want to undergo the transformation themselves, Xiao Yun will not object. After all, Iron Man is indeed not bad and has a high growth potential. Moreover, the light-matter conversion system itself actually has infinite possibilities. It is undeniable that Iron Man itself has the ability to evolve, at least it has not reached the upper limit of its evolution yet.

Number One's idea was very simple. Having such power now was enough to protect Xiao Yun. As for the future, he would talk about it in the future. Based on his understanding of Iron Man, this thing was still in a period of rapid growth. Having more things in his body would make his physique stronger.

It is not known how long it will take for Tejaman's growth potential to be exhausted. The new replacement plan at that time does not mean that people who have enhanced Tejaman will not be able to use it. Moreover, the Tejaman armor itself has basic transformation capabilities, which means that at the very least, Tejaman's future will not be left behind.

Besides, he is a knight. Besides fighting on his own, a knight's strongest point is coordinating battles with his own body. He is best at special operations rather than head-on combat. Why does he have to turn himself into a berserker?

As far as special operations are concerned, Iron Man's level is already the real ceiling. If that's the case, then what is there to wait for?

If there were a dozen Iron Mans here today, No. 1 would be confident that he could carry Xiao Yun and rush directly into the base of the Jupiter Lizard and make Xiao Yun the local emperor.

If I had known that this mission would be like this, I would have taken advantage of that time to transform myself before No. 1 could handle it.

Especially No. 8. No. 1 felt that since there was a combat Tejaman, he would definitely be able to make an engineering Tejaman, just like the engineering backpack that Luo made for his own Titanfall. No. 8 would definitely become the engineering Tejaman knight of the new era.

Xiao Yun probably understood No. 1's idea, but he didn't know that No. 1 was going to transform No. 8 into an engineering Metroidvania. It all depended on their own choice. Anyway, even if Metroidvania developed to its limit in the future, No. 1 could still drive a more advanced Titanfall to fight.

Maybe by then some space device will be developed, and the machine can be summoned with a keychain.

"Xiao Yun, there is a signal coming in, trying to connect to the control system."

VT's voice suddenly appeared in Xiao Yun's ears.

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment and revealed an interesting look: "Where did the signal come from?"

"According to analysis, the signal originated from the direction of Earth."

If Xiao Yun could receive the news, naturally other people could also, but everyone was waiting for Xiao Yun's statement.

It's just a signal of intrusion, which is not a big deal. For the current situation, it is probably equivalent to remotely starting the air conditioner at home. Xiao Yun can disconnect it immediately if he wants to.

"Please pass it on."

…………

The signal was connected and the communication mode was automatically turned on. After a brief silence, a woman's voice sounded.

"What's going on, who's still there?"

Xiao Yun raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the corner. He looked at the black-haired woman on his screen and said, "Who are you?"

The camera in the corner lit up, captured Xiao Yun standing up, and projected the image onto the other party's communication screen.

A standing masked man wearing a strange uniform of unknown purpose.

"Who are you and why are you in our Neil Heavy Industries research institute?"

"Of course he is the new owner of this place." Xiao Yun looked up at the direction of the surveillance camera in the corner and said, "Why did you suddenly break into my territory? Don't you want to give me an explanation? Who are you and what do you want to do?"

Xiao Yun's words stunned the black-haired young woman on the line. She felt that this man was so shameless.

"Neil Heavy Industries... have you been keeping an eye on that ship? As soon as that ship left Mars, you immediately linked up with this research institute. Is there anything you need on Mars? Or do you want to do something through this research institute?"

The woman took a deep breath to calm herself down. "I'm Alina, the secretary to the president of Neil Heavy Industries. Why are you at the research institute? It should be abandoned and sealed off."

Xiao Yun shook his head: "Don't ask such worthless questions. It is obvious that we have occupied this place and control everything here."

Secretary Elena's breathing stagnated and she didn't know what to do. She forced herself to calmly ask, "Who are you? Which side do you represent? Why do you want to occupy our research institute?"

Xiao Yun was silent for a moment, then he spoke: "We don't need to waste time. Tell me the purpose of your connection here. This place has been completely taken over by me. You can't do anything without my cooperation. If I want, I can even kick you out of this network immediately."

The scene suddenly switched, and the person on the line turned into a young man with long hair.

The young man smiled as he appeared. "I am the president of Nirga, Chiyue Liu. I apologize for disturbing you. I didn't know that the research institute that originally belonged to Nirga had been acquired by someone else. I don't know how I should address you."

Xiao Yun was silent for a moment, then said, "BOSS."

Chi Yueliu also fell silent for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Okay Mr. Boss, you should not be a soldier of the Earth Federation. Are you from Mulian? However, people from Mulian should not be interested in our Nierga Research Institute, so I am very curious about your true identity, Mr. Boss."

"Why do you care so much?" Xiao Yun waved his hand indifferently and said, "What about you? What is your purpose?"

Chi Yueliu smiled slightly and said, "Nothing, we just want to confirm through the research institute's communication network whether the warship belonging to our Neiljia Heavy Industry can still be contacted. Please forgive us if we disturb you."
