Chapter 64: Encounter with Tinari, testing the electromagnetic detonator.
Printers come with almost all kinds of printing materials initially, but resin needs to be added for subsequent production.
As a means of capture, quick-setting foam dissolves as soon as it comes into contact with oil, making it largely ineffective for offensive operations.
The test was a complete success. Chen Bo recalled the mechs, which efficiently extended their arms to retrieve the reusable electric shock bombs, re-formed, and awaited the next command.
"Alpha Team, return to the printer's location at maximum speed and establish a standby position."

Chen Bo issued a new order.
The eight capture robots swiftly executed the next command, taking off with their mechanical legs.
Chen Bo issued the order to move as quickly as possible, also in order to observe the speed.
Observations indicate that these mechs have a maximum speed of approximately 60 kilometers per hour.
It's more than enough to maintain order in the city.
After returning to the printer, Chen Bo put it away and continued testing the new equipment.
He printed three different models of electromagnetic detonating hammers: a two-meter-long hammer that required two hands to hold, a giant hammer over three meters long with a head comparable to a millstone, and a hammer nearly five meters long, comparable to an ancient siege hammer.
These three hammers are basically enlarged proportionally, with the larger hammer having a thicker handle and greater power.
Moreover, Chen Bo also added a simple flight structure to it.
Chen Bo picked up the two-meter-long warhammer; it felt heavy and cold to the touch.
He took out a lightning elemental crystal from his backpack, which he had left behind when he dismantled the guardian of the ruins, and skillfully embedded it into the groove of the hammer handle.
"Click".
With a soft click, the crystals fit together perfectly.
The entire warhammer emitted a deep hum, and the energy rails on both sides of the hammerhead instantly lit up with dazzling purple lightning, and the electric field had already spread around the shock hammer.
"Feels good." Chen Bo weighed the hammer in his hand, feeling that it was very solid.
"Nasita, let's go find another little treasure to play with."
"Hmm, there's a Relic Guardian three kilometers to the east." Nasita appeared on Chen Bo's virtual screen and marked a clear navigation arrow.
Just then, a rustling sound came from the bushes not far away.
"Who?" Chen Bo instantly became alert, and the lightning in his warhammer intensified.
A green figure emerged from the forest, followed by a large, fluffy tail.
When the visitor saw Luna 1 and the glowing hammer next to it, he was first taken aback, then showed a helpless expression.
"Anil? What are you doing here in the middle of the night? The commotion is so loud, the patrol team might think a large monster has invaded."
The visitor was none other than Tinari, the forester of Daocheng Forest.
His signature long ears twitched alertly, and his gaze swept back and forth between Chen Bo, Nasita, and the warhammer that looked like a menacing weapon.
"Teacher Tinari!" Chen Bo recognized the person who had come, opened the mask of Wisdom One to reveal his face, and controlled the dissipation of the electricity on the hammer, saying, "Sorry, sorry, I was testing the new equipment and didn't realize that it would cause such a commotion."
Tinari's gaze finally settled on the warhammer; as a scholar, he had a natural curiosity about such novel things.
"New equipment? This is the result of your research?" He stepped forward, not touching it directly, but carefully observing the intricate structure and energy rails on the hammerhead. "It looks—quite powerful."
Chen Bo explained with a smile, "I want to find a ruin guardian to test its power."
"A test?" Tinari's expression turned serious as he advised, "The Guardians of the Ruins are no joke. Although their behavior pattern is simple, their destructive power is extremely strong. Provoking their attack could easily damage the rainforest. I suggest—"
"Don't worry, senior, I know what I'm doing." Chen Bo patted his chest confidently. "If you're still worried, Teacher Tinari can stay with us."
"Alright, I'll go with you." Tinari finally decided, "Firstly, I can help you keep watch on the surroundings and prevent other creatures from getting close."
"Secondly, if anything unexpected happens, I can protect you."
"Thirdly, I also want to see the practical effects of your new equipment firsthand. After all, you'll be coming to help us at Daocheng Forest soon, and understanding your fighting style beforehand will help our future cooperation."
"Thank you so much!" Chen Bo was very satisfied.
Having spectators makes the testing even more exciting.
With Naxida's precise navigation, Chen Bo quickly found his target.
It was a ruins guardian patrolling a fixed route; its huge single eye glowed, making it quite conspicuous even at night.
Following behind Anil, Tinari was actually filled with worry.
As a forest ranger, he had witnessed too many tragedies caused by the improper use of elemental power.
This is how the Fatui's elemental equipment is. This warhammer looks a lot like the Fatui's Thunder Hammer, but Tinari knows that manipulating elemental power with one's mind without the Eye of God is harmful to the body.
Even if those Fools' soldiers were specially selected, it would still be the same.
Vitality will still be overdrawn.
The warhammer in Anil's hand clearly also contained powerful lightning elemental energy.
How exactly does he drive it? Is it like the holder of the Eye of God, guiding it with his own spiritual power?
Or, like the Fools, do they use something called the Evil Eye and then guide them with spiritual power?
This is the issue that Tinaari is most concerned about.
Anil doesn't have the Eye of God, so please don't let anything happen to him because of this.
He saw Anil take a deep breath, and the light on the chest of his Intelligence II armor shone brightly, illuminating the space in front of him. The next second, he shot out like an arrow.
The relic guard immediately spotted him, its massive mechanical arm rising high with a whistling sound, and punched the human who appeared small to it.
However, Anil neither dodged nor avoided the situation.
He gripped the warhammer tightly with both hands, and swung it upwards to meet the fist that was bigger than him!
"boom--!"
A deafening roar was followed by a blinding flash of lightning.
Tinali subconsciously squinted his eyes.
The terrifying electromagnetic pulse spread out in visible ripples, pressing down the surrounding vegetation.
The ground beneath Anil's feet sank slightly, but his body remained still.
Instead, the larger body of the ruins guard was knocked back, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on its sturdy outer armor. Numerous sparks shot out from its joints, and its arm was destroyed and rendered unusable.
A single strike pierced through both physical and elemental defenses.
Its power is undeniable.
Chen Bo was getting more and more excited as he played.
"Take another hit from my hammer."
He pushed off with his feet, lunged forward again, and smashed his hammer into the core of the single eye on the chest of the Relic Guardian!
