Leveling Technology To Save Humanity-Chapter 48: Afraid?... HAH!

"Silly girl, for today, you’ll be helping me with the inspection."

Don’t forget that after tomorrow, GF WorldTech Communications officially opens its doors for staff members. There was a lot to do to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Today was all about meetings and inspections. First, Gort saw the buyers. No surprise, they were interested in buying the newly grown fruits and foods they tasted yesterday.

Prices were negotiated and everyone felt it was a win-win. The buyers, except Payne who came with Khalea and Erin, took off.

Now Gort was sitting among the massive group of guests drinking tea with relish and snacking away with relish.

This place was such a treasure land to them. Although they didn’t want to go, they knew they couldn’t stay here for long, so it’s best to cut to the chase.

Larkh was also here, with the military officials and even Doctor Shard, Khalea and Erin.

They had already discussed military purchase, with Gort willing to bring the biting prince down to half the market value per pound of food purchased.

Take this as Gratitude for these brave soldiers who serve the country. Of course, it can never be completely free as he needed to sustain and pay his workers.

If he started doing business in that manner, he would lose all his income faster than a cat can purr.

Ghaw-Kakwkakakak~

Khelt Kin laughed. "Kid... You’re quite bold for someone your age."

For him not to tremble or shake in their presence meant the kid had grit.

"I believe that with your efforts, it won’t be long before Gwintia Country becomes strong again." One of the military generals added.

"Yes," Khelt Kin agreed, "However, we are worried for your safety, kid."

Everyone’s face twisted in a thousand knots.

Why do you say that? Was Gort in any danger?

Clare Rei, Park Fairbang, Thulu and a few people were worried for Gort’s sake.

"Do you mean the big 3?" Gort asked, his arms lazily crossed around his chest.

Khelt Kin was taken aback. "Smart... It seems you know what’s coming now that you turned down their offer."

Dammit, was it because of that little turn down?

Tyrants!... Tyrants, each and every last one of them!

Clare Rei was furious, while listening to the many things the big 3 has done over the years.

Even Mayor Akin was taken aback by what they might do to Gort because of his ingenuity. However, seeing that the Gwintia military was ready to step in for Gort’s sake, it made him sigh in relief.

Good... good... good...

Even he didn’t want such a genius to be taken away by the big 3.

"Don’t worry kid, well station some of our forces around the village to protect you and the village as a whole."

"Thank you," Gort replied, gratitude evident on his face. "But–" He continued. "I’m not so defenseless, as you might think."

After tapping his smartwatch, everyone nore witness to something they never thought could exist in this life.

[ Alice is awake. ]

A voice echoed, and the other metal bracket on Gort’s hand soon detached itself and scratched its limbs like that of a spider.

Gort chuckled, letting the confused crowd follow him to the simulation room he built in his home, opposite his lam underground.

They stood outside, watching Alice and Gort go in.

Facing the duo in the chamber, where countless weapons pointed their way.

Does Gort have a permit to do this? That was the first thing in the minds of Khalea, Khelt Kin and the military personnel.

Despite it being small, they knew it was a high tech chamber. So just how did he build it?

Even the system has long been amazed by Gort’s intelligence. You have to know that Gort had thought of building Alice long before the system came to play.

A young 7-year-old Gort had built Alice’s first prototype using scraps from a junkyard and coding he created on an old thrown away laptop.

That was before. However, with money now, it was another matter altogether. When applying for materials for con, he specially asked for other materials too.

The weapons pointed, weren’t filled with regular bullets. He made empty shells and filled them with the same weight as normal bullets would. As for the firring power needed, one can say he used his knowledge of chemistry to the bone.

Dangerous!

Who knew bullets could be made this way? There has never been any bullet like this in the market.

Clare Rei was the most dumbfounded. She had seen the old model that was rusted in her son’s room.

It was just a simple bracelet.

But looking at how the new Bracelet transformed into a flexible metal spider, why did she have ominous thoughts about that other one?

... Could it be that the many piles of junk they made growing up were actually ALL very precious?
