Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 158 Boosters Suit

After shamelessly equipping the metal suits, following Mary's procedure, Shi Tian felt renewed.

He seemed to have gotten an impression of becoming stronger with just the suit alone.

And of course, while he was enjoying this new suit, Mary had promptly explained what type of boosters this was.

Boosters was merely a term that they had decided to use despite it actually being a suit.

"The suit that you were pervertedly staring at and Gerald's suit are similar concepts. Though Gerald's ones are more inclined to defensive and offensive power whereas ours are more focused on speed and stealth." Mary explained the differences between the two suits.

To simplify the explanation, Gerald's suit was designed for battle whereas the boosters' suits are designed for stealth, meaning it's not quite suitable for combat.

"The boosters suit is indeed impressive, but doesn't quite fit me well." Shi Tian walked around and said somewhat disappointingly.

"Please don't ever tell people that you are a mechanic." Mary facepalmed and commented.

"Do you know how troublesome it is to always recreate a new suit just so it could match the physiques of another person constantly?" She then questioned him.

"I suppose it would be quite problematic." He thought about it and responded.

Mary nodded her head and explained, "It's not just problematic, but also extremely expensive to do so. These boosters suits are crafted using the highest quality materials possible and guarantee safety protection for the user. But most importantly, these suits aren't for sale and are exclusive to our personal use."

After the explanation, Mary guided Shi Tian on how to adjust the suit to match his physique.

And naturally, Mary didn't miss this opportunity to jab on his insignificant knowledge once again. It seemed to be her norm after interacting with Shi Tian quite a lot.

Of course, Shi Tian was used to it as well and understood that she never really meant her words unless she was showing a solemn expression.

With the boosters suit now fitted Shi Tian perfectly, he could feel the difference. But what surprised him more was that the weight of the boosters suit should have been extremely heavy.

Yet he didn't feel a thing and was comfortable from the get-go.

"Could it be-" Before Shi Tian could finish his sentence, Mary nodded her head and interrupted.

"That's right, it's the result of your training with the Metallic Stone." She said, finishing his words.

Shi Tian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, even taking a few steps back away from Mary.

"You didn't plan for this, right?" He then asked, feeling somewhat like a pawn being pushed around here and there.

Thankfully, Mary shook her head and responded truthfully. "No, this boosters suit was meant for you when the New Region officially became safe to explore. As for this incident, it was beyond our expectation so we might as well make an improvisation."

"Thank heaven, I would have been beyond frightened."

"You need to stop overthinking too much sometimes, Nathan. If we are so omnipotent, then we would have been extremely famous and influential already."

"You're right," Shi Tian scratched his head slightly. "It just seems so surreal how everything goes your way and exactly how you wanted to."

"It's not my fault that the enemies are retarded to do things favorable for us." Mary shrugged her shoulders, pushing the blame on their competitor.

"Anyway, enough of this pointless discussion, and let's get you familiarized with the boosters suit. Though with your adaptation of new things, you should be able to get the hang of it soon."

With that said, Mary started to inform Shi Tian of each of the functions and buttons of the boosters suit. And to his surprise, the boosters suit could actually carry a lot of things.

Items are actually compressed and stored as a cube until they decide to take it out and the item would then regain its original shape. An easier explanation was that the compression was similar to the Dimension Ring function.

"This is amazing," Shi Tian was astonished by such a function. At the same time, he began to really wonder just how knowledgeable Isaac Aaronax was and how powerful they are.

Mary had always told him that there are stronger people than them, but the more he experienced and the more he learned, the more he realized how the world had changed since the past.

132 years, that kind of time being lost was like the difference between the stone age and the medieval age.

However, Shi Tian's shock had nearly just begun when Mary had more explosive news.

"By the way, you can turn on the invisible function," She suggested.

"I-Invisible function?" Shi Tian stutteringly said.

But luckily, his passive ability [Serene Calmness] kicked in, prompting him to calm down and regained his composure shortly after.

As for Mary, instead of explaining further and wasting her breath, she did something and the boosters suit that was attached to her disappeared, as if she wasn't equipping any suit at all.

"This was done with a special technology that made the suit blend in with the environment. And if one isn't inspecting real closely, then they would never notice the suit."

"Special technology huh…" Shi Tian glanced at Mary and muttered, seemingly in deep thought.

"What? Are you trying to learn this special technology?" She smirked and teasingly said.

Despite the teasing though, it was clear that this kind of technology isn't something she would tell Shi Tian. Given that it must have been their core technology and their trump card.

Unfortunately for Mary, Shi Tian wasn't thinking about learning this and was focused on another topic.

"If you have special technology that could blend things in with the environment, making it invisible. Then does that mean this special technology can be applied to us as well?" He then asked.

Mary was slightly stunned by his question.

Shaking her head for a few moments, she started laughing. "I didn't plan on saying much about it, but who would have thought you could come up with such a question. Indeed, Mechanist Isaac has been testing this theory, but it's not as easy as it sounds."
