Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic

"Let's take a look first."

Su Yu did not directly answer the question from the Galaxy Battle Armor. Instead, he continued walking and observing the city.

The Galaxy Battle Armor hurriedly followed.

Although it only retained a data core, it still possessed a certain degree of motility.

Su Yu and the Galaxy Battle Armor were both maintaining an invisibility state, walking through the city without being noticed by the mechanical creations and humans around them.

Mainly because, during these two observations, Su Yu was circling the outskirts of the city and hadn't gone to the center.

The city center might be occupied by that nine-star strong figure, and Su Yu did not dare to recklessly approach. It was safer to conduct a thorough investigation on the outskirts first.

This time, Su Yu's perspective was different; he focused on observing the various resources in the city.

Soon, Su Yu's observations yielded results.

Just as he expected.

The city was extremely scarce in all kinds of resources.

The food, the water humans consumed, the air they breathed, were all recycled repeatedly.

The parts for those mechanical creations were also reprocessed over and over again.

Throughout the city, there were recycling plants and metal smelting factories everywhere.

At every moment, various materials were being recycled.

"Is this what these humans eat every day..."

He saw those humans eating synthetic food, all of it in peculiar-smelling and colored mush.

As they consumed it, they either showed no expression or an expression of disgust.

Apparently, this stuff was nothing tasty and could even be described as repulsive.

Years of eating this turned what should be an enjoyable meal into a form of punishment.

The raw materials for these synthetic foods were obviously recycled substances.

As for where exactly these materials were recycled from...

Su Yu let his imagination run wild for just a moment, then stopped thinking further.

"Forget it, let's not ruin my appetite."

Su Yu shook his head internally, rationally deciding not to delve deeper.

However, life in this city wasn't just hard for humans.

In fact, those mechanical creations that rode on humans weren't doing any better.

Their parts, having been in use for many years, were severely worn out.

Once their worn-out parts were discarded, they were repeatedly remelted and recast before being reinstalled.

While the surface of the parts showed no wear after recasting,

their performance was somewhat inadequate.

Thus, these mechanical creations frequently malfunctioned, often breaking down on the streets and needing a human mechanic to repair them.

Actually, these mechanical creations had the capability to self-repair, possibly even more precisely than those human mechanics.

But they simply refused to do it themselves and left it to the humans.

Ironically, by shutting down and remaining inactive, these mechanical creations could reduce over 99% of their wear and tear.

Yet they were unwilling to stop at all.

They traversed back and forth in the city every day as if they were humans, engaging in social activities and entertainment.

Unlike ordinary mechanical creations, which would remain stationary without a task, they were enjoying life!

Despite lacking resources themselves, they lived a much higher "quality of life" thanks to human service.

They even courted and reproduced...

Su Yu watched as two octopus-shaped machines, holding a small octopus machine, like a family of three strolling past, leaving him speechless.

"These guys really think they're humans, trying to emulate them in every way."

"There's even a restaurant where the beverages are fuel oil, and the food is energy batteries and metal salads."

"What a bizarre mess this is..."

The more Su Yu examined, the more he noticed the peculiar and bizarre nature of this city.

Everything seemed turned upside down.

Humans had become the laboring tools of the mechanical creations, while the mechanical creations indulged in human service, enjoying life.

Do mechanical creations have lives? Do they enjoy them? Su Yu had hardly considered this before.

But now he had seen it for himself.

"Master, these guys are truly disgusting!"

"Yes, yes, have they gone insane..."

The Fear Intelligence and Nuonuo, which Su Yu carried with him, couldn't help but speak out.

Apparently, this strange "City of Subversion" had made a huge psychological impact on their young minds.

They couldn't understand the behavioral logic of these mechanical creations and could only assume that they'd gone mad.

"They might not be crazy after all..."

The Galaxy Battle Armor spoke up then.

Su Yu was a bit surprised and said, "What, you agree with the state of these mechanical creations?"

The Galaxy Battle Armor scoffed, "How could I? This battle armor was born for combat! The word 'enjoyment' isn't even in my foundational code!"

"However, their current state might be influenced by something or perhaps intentionally designed this way."

"It could be a strong figure's perverse interest, or perhaps... some kind of experiment!"

"Mr. Su Yu, please continue investigating."

The Galaxy Battle Armor seemed to have a hunch but wasn't certain.

Su Yu didn't press the question.

He was immersing his consciousness into Nihility Space, inventorying the resources there.

From the earlier observations, Su Yu confirmed that this city severely lacked resources, which made his stocks incredibly valuable.

Before setting out, Su Yu had deliberately loaded a lot of supplies into the Nihility Space.

Most of it was riding cavalry-type mechanical creations because, as a mechanic, it was impossible to travel without mechanical creations.
