The two of them ultimately didn't tell Yuyuan about this matter. Chen Mu helplessly interrupted the chubby guy who was excitedly boasting about his practical abilities.
"Well then, take there."
"Sure, Senior, what do you need the lubricant for?"
"To build a machine."
Chen Mu didn't know how to explain it for a mont, so he casually replied.
"Wow, you guys have already entered industrialization? That's amazing! After I join, can I be a worker?"
"We will assign tasks and jobs based on everyone's abilities and interests."
Chen Mu suddenly realized that besides the effect of superpowers, this chubby guy seed to be quite capable. At least he didn't know anything about the 8300 lubricant.
If they were really going to establish an industrial system, talents like him would undoubtedly be needed.
"Wow, so we not only have industrialization but also a clear division of labor in the Dawn Community?"
Do we?
Why don't I know about it?
Chen Mu found that people like Sun Yuan and Yuyuan could really infect others with their emotions. Those with weaker willpower would undoubtedly be misled.
The five of them walked and chatted along the way.
More accurately, it was Yuyuan who was babbling, He Ying occasionally responded with a few words, while Chen Mu and the other two remained silent throughout.
Soon, they arrived at a place next to the wall.
On this side of the wall, there was a row of glass cabinets as long as the rooms. Not only were the cabinets filled with things, but even the gaps between the cabinets and the ground were stuffed.
"Here, it's these."
Yuyuan pointed ahead.
But what Chen Mu saw was not the plastic bottles that Tang Jing had described to him, but several things that looked like ballpoint pens. The front end of the pens was very thin, and the tips were sharp like needles.
"This is the lubricant? Aren't they supposed to be in whole bottles?"
"There are whole bottles too, under the desk over there, but we can't get them out. These few are oil pens. We used them before to move so heavy stuff."
"Why are the oil pens just lying on the ground like this?"
"Hehe, both Teacher Wan and I are not fussy people..."
Not fussy? Isn't that just littering?
Looking at the ss in the room, it was evident.
Chen Mu didn't care about that, he just asked, "Are you sure that these different lubricants won't be mistaken?"
Because he couldn't see the packaging, Chen Mu couldn't confirm whether the oil in these so-called oil pens was the sa as what Tang Jing had requested.
"Of course, I am a professional."
Afraid that Chen Mu wouldn't believe him, Yuyuan pointed to several oil pens of different colors and said, "8300 is used on springs, 9010 is suitable for gears..."
Just as Tang Jing had said.
It seed this guy wasn't bragging after all.
Chen Mu finally felt relieved. He walked to the tip of the oil pen and pretended to take out a few plastic square containers from his backpack. His hand moved so quickly that Yuyuan and the others didn't notice.
Chen Mu wasn't intentionally trying to hide anything; he just didn't want to waste ti explaining to them, especially Yuyuan. He could already imagine the surprised and shocked expression on his face if he found out the truth.
Quickly, Chen Mu filled all three types of lubricants into the containers and discreetly sealed them before putting them back into his backpack.
"All set, let's go back."
"Okay, okay."
"Do you guys need to bring anything else?"
"No, we don't."
Yuyuan and the others were tired of staying in this place and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
However, Chen Mu suddenly had a bright idea and asked, "Is there anything stored in Xiao Zhou's space right now?"
Zhou Xuliang was taken aback and then shook his head, "I just woke up and haven't put anything in there yet. Normally, I only use the space when I need to move things."
Chen Mu sighed inwardly; this ability was a bit wasted on them. He wasn't sure about Zhou Xuliang's ability growth, but he guessed that the capacity of the space should be one aspect of it.
Now it's only 1 cubic centiter, but in the future, maybe it could reach 1 cubic ter?
That would be amazing.
They could transport goods by tons.
However, Chen Mu was also well aware that the growth of superpowers wouldn't be that easy. By the ti it reached that level, the transportation capabilities of technology and industry might also achieve such a level.
But at least for now, the 1-cm³ space was already enough to bring back many things to their ho.
Especially in this office of Old Wan, it was simply a treasure trove, a paradise of various materials.
However, Chen Mu couldn't decide what exactly to bring back at the mont.
He Ying understood Chen Mu's intention and suggested, "Why not bring so more lubricants then?"
"Tang Jing said there's no need to bring more; these are enough."
Speaking of Tang Jing, Chen Mu's mind suddenly had a thought, and he asked Yuyuan, "Do you have any aluminum alloy here?"
"Of course."
The chubby guy seed excited, "Aluminum alloy is the primary material for making airplanes, so it's also used a lot in model aircraft. Let think, yes, we can find so on our way out."
Chen Mu made a decision on the spot, "In that case, let's head back now, and on our way, we'll ask Xiao Zhou to bring so things back to the camp for ."
"Okay." Zhou Xuliang didn't speak much, but he looked very friendly.
The five of them set off on their way back.
As expected, as Yuyuan said, they didn't walk long on their way to the entrance when they found the aluminum alloy. It was in a cardboard box containing various tal pieces of different shapes, seemingly parts of an airplane model that hadn't been assembled yet.
"Is this it?"
"Yes." Yuyuan nodded, "Senior, how much do you need? But if you want it to fit in Zhou Xuliang's space, it has to be small parts. Let look for so..."
Chen Mu was about to tell him it wasn't necessary when He Ying exclaid, "Is that a soap?"
Everyone turned their heads simultaneously.
They saw a white oval-shaped soap next to the model on the ground, almost used up, with only a thin layer left and already cracked from being dried out.
Obviously, this size of soap was already unusable in the past, and it was probably thrown on the ground by soone "not fussy."
However, this size was terrifying for humans at this ti.
Chen Mu understood what He Ying ant.
"Do you want to bring it back?"
"I've been washing with just water lately, but it feels sticky and hard to clean. Although we don't have shower gel, this hand soap will do. If possible..."
After calculating, Chen Mu figured it was enough soap for everyone for a few days, and it wouldn't take up too much space, hardly affecting the size of the aluminum alloy. So he nodded, "Alright, I'll cut off a big piece."
However, just as he was about to approach the soap.
A sudden change occurred.
A cold light shot out from the other side of the cardboard box, aiming directly at Chen Mu's position.
The speed of this cold light was extrely fast, instantly triggering his ti adjustnt ability.
After several battles, Chen Mu's experience had beco richer, and he was no longer flustered by such attacks as before.
He preemptively took out a weapon from his waist and was about to deploy his shield to defend, but a sense of unease surged in his heart.
Almost in an instant.
His thoughts turned rapidly, and the weapon in his hand transford into a long spear, thrusting towards the attacker.
At the sa ti, he swiftly sidestepped.
The attacker clearly didn't expect Chen Mu's reaction to be so fast. The offensive trend was montarily disrupted by the sharp long spear but still continued without letting up.
A "clang" sound.
The two sides brushed past each other.
Only at this mont did He Ying react, while Yuyuan and the others still had no idea what had happened.
After regaining his stance, Chen Mu looked at the long spear in his hand and was stunned for a mont.
The stainless steel long spear was now only half of its original length, turning into a long stick, and the spearhead had been chopped off and fell on the ground nearby.
