" Wine God Gene!!!"
Duke looked at the one microgram of Dionysus factor in the test tube in his hand, his eyes filled with intoxication. The test tube in his hand was the size of a normal bottle of penicillin. There was a button on one end and a syringe on the other.
The Dionysus factor in the test tube was in the form of a mist. Through the light, one could only see specks of starlight floating in it.
"Good stuff!"
"Compared to this, gun fighting technique is trash!”
Duke said happily. He unbuttoned his shirt, pressed the injection port against his heart, and pressed the button.
Crack!
With a soft sound, one milligram of the Dionysus factor was forcefully injected into Duke's heart. Duke put down the test tube and put on his clothes again.
After infusing the Dionysus Gene, the pain was not as great as when he was injected with the super soldier serum.
However, the Dionysus Gene had already been injected into his body, forming a symbiotic relationship with Duke.
This thing would only work when the host was on the verge of destruction or when his life was severely damaged. No matter how hard he tried to detect it, he could not detect the existence of the Dionysus factor.
The only use of the Wine God Gene was to repair the host's injuries and allow the host to be reborn. The Ugly Lord had the Wine God Gene in his body, making him an immortal existence. He even wanted to turn the old master into someone like him so that they could fight each other for eternity.
As one of the five special metals in the DC-Universe, the Dionysus Gene was a very buggy product.
Even if it was just one milligram, Duke still had a chance to survive in a desperate situation.
Even if his heart was pierced, he could still be reborn after death.
This was the power of the Dionysus Gene!
"Alright, now that we've drawn the lottery, it's time to get down to business!”
Duke put the Gun Fighting Technique aside. He didn't plan to use this inheritance yet. Right now, he needed to perfect his blueprint to cool his head.
The lights in the night were always bright, as if they were the only stars in the night.
Five days later.
Colin Workshop, underground forging room.
Clang, clang, clang
As the casting machine roared, the flames in the furnace quickly rose, melting the materials in the crucible into liquid. Duke, who was pulling the T-shaped lever with both hands, kept exerting force, making the flames in the furnace even more ferocious.
Under the high temperature, the half-naked Duke was drenched in sweat, but his eyes were shining. After five days of sleepless work, his Clockwork Exoskeleton was finally going to be born. He was only missing the last part.
Duke pulled the handle hard to raise the temperature of the furnace to the maximum before letting go of the handle. He took the towel on his shoulder and casually wiped the sweat off his forehead. He picked up the hammer, clamped a metal plate with the fire pliers, and hammered it hard on the iron felt.
The hammer fell rhythmically on the metal plate, slowly forming the shape Duke had expected.
ding ding ding
The rhythmic knocking echoed in the casting room. Duke also hammered the metal plate into the shape of a leg guard. He held the leg guard with a pair of fire tongs and soaked it in a special liquid. After quenching, he put down the hammer and turned to pull a ring.
The ring was pulled, and the molten metal poured into the mold.
It took him three days to prepare the molds for the important parts. He spent the remaining two days making the parts by hand.
As the molten golden-red liquid was poured into the mold, Duke began to wait. He wiped his sweat and saw the parts scattered on the ground behind him.
These parts were classified and piled up in a pile. If one did not have a design, they would not be able to put them together.
Duke, who had been waiting for a long time, opened the mold and took out a metal strip that looked like a human spine. This was the last part of his exoskeleton, and it was also the most important part.
Duke looked at all the parts, wiped his sweat with a towel, and threw them into the furnace.
"It's all done. Next is the assembly!”
All the parts were put into a box. Duke, who was carrying the box, didn't care about the furnace. Without the wind, the furnace would automatically go out. When he needed to use it, he just needed to turn it on.
Duke walked out of the forging workshop along the stairs and entered a workshop that Collin had specially opened for him. This was also the second workshop of Collin's Workshop.
Even Orianna, her biological daughter, did not have the right to own her own studio, but Duke did!
Duke placed the box on the floor and began the final assembly. As the first machine, it needed to be assembled manually. However, if it passed the evaluation meeting of the Blue Aroma Manor and was invested by others, Duke could have his own factory and assembly line.
Just as Duke began to assemble, Orianna poked her head out of the door of the studio and curiously sized up Duke's every move.
Duke was adding parts and equipment to the most important parts. Orianna tiptoed into Duke's workshop and curiously reached into the material box.
"Don't move around. I've sorted the materials. If you move them, I won't be able to find them.”
"What's so important!"
"If it's missing a component, this thing will turn from an enhanced body into a torture tool!”
Duke, who was tightening a screw with a wrench, knocked on the long spine in front of him. Orianna stuck out her tongue and hit her own palm.
"But when will you finish making it, Duke?”
"Don't worry, I'll let you play with it after it's completed. You'll also be the candidate for the final evaluation on the day of the evaluation!”
Duke paused for a moment, and two figures appeared in his mind. He emphasized,"One of the candidates!"
"Ah?" Orianna sat at the work table and pouted."One of the candidates!"
"Because there are two women in the parliament. Other than the judges from the various families, the people from the parliament will also attend the evaluation meeting of the Bluescent Manor. At that time, it will be the highlight of the first machine!”
"Humph!"
"Then I have to be the first to come!"
"Alright!" Duke, who only had his exoskeleton armor in his eyes, casually said,"Go wait outside. If you're bored, pray for Janna. She likes you!”
"I know, I know!"
Orianna rolled her eyes and made a face at Duke before running out of the studio. Duke was not affected at all.
Engineering men were all like this. When they were busy, they would be immersed in their own world. Not to mention girls, even if the world collapsed, they would not waver!
As time passed, Duke tightened the last screw on the Clockwork Exoskeleton.
"It's done!"
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Duke put the wrench on the tool belt at his waist and looked satisfied.
In front of him was a clockwork kinetic skeleton that looked like a human skeleton. It was made of a movable metal column that fit the spine as the main body. It could fit the back of the human body to assist.
At the waist was a cylindrical clockwork power device. Its overall size was about the size of a small engine and the length of an adult male's forearm.
There were metal clasps on both sides of the clockwork power device for fixing. At the same time, it was connected to the movable metal column that was attached to the spine in a triangular shape to ensure stability.
On the shoulder, there were shoulder pads. Duke used leather as a replacement, and there was a soft inner lining inside, which would not cause discomfort to the wearer.
At the same time, there were skeletons attached to the arms and legs for power. They were filled with gears and miniature clockwork power devices.
Both hands and feet had special combat boots and gauntlets. The combat boots were the clockwork enhanced combat boots that Duke had imagined, and the gloves were similar to Vi's Hexagon Power Boxing Gloves.
"The next step is to invite out the white mouse!”
Duke rubbed his palms, and his eyes were filled with excitement. The Clockwork Power Exoskeleton that he had created was, to be precise, the unfinished product of his Clockwork Power Suit.
He would add armor and energy devices on top of the exoskeleton to upgrade it into a stronger armor.
"Orianna, I'm ready!”
"I'm coming!"
Orianna quickly rushed to Duke's studio when she heard the voice and rushed over excitedly.
"Can I test it now?"
"Of course!" Duke opened the buckle and made an inviting gesture."Come on, I'll help you put it on. Then you can experience the feeling of being a superhuman!”
"Yes, yes!"
A moment later, in the courtyard of the Collin Workshop.
Colin and Duke were standing in a corner of the courtyard with a test target in front of them.
"Are you sure that your enhanced body is safe?”
"To be precise, it's a clockwork kinetic skeleton device that can help people achieve things that humans can't do. For example, lifting heavy objects with one hand, surpassing the speed of a carriage, and jumping as fast as a jumping mouse. It can increase the basic strength of humans by more than ten times!”
"Isn't this a weapon?"
Colin expressed his worries. Duke's creation was a weapon that could increase a person's strength, speed, and endurance by more than ten times. If it fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it would be a disaster.
"It can be called a weapon, but it can also be called a tool. There is no good or evil in a tool. It depends on the user!”
Duke clapped his hands." Come out, Orianna!”
Bang!
The door leading to the courtyard was torn down by Orianna. Orianna maintained her posture of pushing the door open, her expression a little dull. She said with a sobbing tone,""I just wanted to open the door!"
"Nothing, continue!"
Duke comforted him. Colin looked at his daughter who was wearing an exoskeleton armor and suppressed the worry in his heart. Orianna took a step forward, and the clockwork power device at her waist felt the operation of the kinetic energy activation device built into the combat boots.
The kinetic energy was transmitted to the clockwork power unit through the gear chain. The power unit instantly burst out with a powerful force, and Orianna appeared in front of the courtyard wall in a flash.
"What a fast speed!"
Colin was shocked, and he looked at Duke with shock and disbelief. Duke was able to create such a powerful armor. He was a genius of Clockwork Technology, and this made him determined to pass on his mantle and workshop to Duke.
"Walk slowly, don't use force!”
Duke walked to Orianna's side and gently guided her.""It's your first time using it, so you won't be used to it. The power output I installed in this set doesn't have a safety lock, so you'll have more than ten times the strength and speed of a normal human.”
"But as long as you relax and take the initiative to adapt to it, you will be able to fully utilize its performance. Moreover, its protection for you is beyond your imagination.”
" Don't be afraid, try boldly!"
"Yes!"
Listening to Duke's comforting words and guidance, Orianna overcame her initial anxiety and took the first step bravely.
Orianna steadily stepped on the ground and took a few steps forward. When Orianna saw this, her eyes lit up and she took a few more steps forward. Duke's lips moved." Janna, look after her!”
"Even if you didn't say it, I would have done it. Orianna is my little angel!”
Janna's voice echoed in Duke's ears. Duke led Orianna to the target and pointed at it." Now, punch forward and use more strength. Don't resist the exoskeleton's push. Get used to it and imagine that it's a part of you!”
"Yes!"
Orianna gripped the glove's control lever tightly. The moment the glove clenched into a fist, she shouted and punched forward.
Such a light fist landed on the target, but it instantly shattered it.
"It's a success!"
Duke smiled and applauded for Orianna.
"Well done, Orianna!"
"Where?"
Orianna covered her mouth in embarrassment. As she pouted, she punched Duke in the chest. Duke's expression changed."Tsk!"
In the next second, Duke flew backward and was embedded in the wall.
"I have to add a safety lock. I can't stand a second punch like this!”
