With Shi Tian finding such a counter asurent against Theobold's equipnt, she found it unbelievable.
In just a brief mont, Shi Tian managed to grasp the principle of a chanic and was able to use his chanic skills to disrupt others.
'He might surpass in terms of chanics very soon.' Mary thought to herself, deducing the pace of his learning capability.
He was ignorant— that one was true, but he was also a quick learner and able to adapt to the situation.
"Um, Mary, do you want to help out?" Shi Tian asked awkwardly when he noticed Mary seed to have been in a daze.
"I've already written the formula and steps on how to do them, so we can split the work as usual." He added, wanting her to stop overthinking.
The current him was quite suspicious to say the least, so to prevent Mary from catching on, he could only attempt to overwhelm her with tasks. That way, she would not have the ti and energy to ponder over the matter.
And sure enough, Mary fell into his trap as she nodded her head.
"Right, the deadline is coming fast." She responded, regaining her composure and focus.
'Sigh, I'm never going to embroil myself in these types of situations anymore. I'd rather work solo and not have to worry much.' Shi Tian exclaid inwardly.
It was indeed a mistake to make himself affiliated with Optic ch, but it was also an unavoidable event if he wanted to improve.
Back then, he knew little to zero things regarding the world.
Not to ntion, he lacked resources and was completely outdated— as in the understanding of the new items, technologies, weapons, monsters, and geographical elents,
'Whatever, people say you learn from mistakes, and I surely did.' Shi Tian shook his head and resud the crafting.
Luckily, he was able to have Mary's help in crafting the base of the Spymon, saving him the trouble and difficulty that he had been struggling with.
And surprisingly, Vanessa seemingly stopped her pathetic acting that fooled no one, ca over, and helped assist Mary such as giving her the tools that she needed at that mont.
Just like that, the trio was working in full turbo and before long, the deadline date arrived.
"Phew, this is the worst," Vanessa exclaid loudly as she complained.
"chanics are truly a bunch of nerds!" She added, having realized the amount of attention and focus one must have to craft sothing from nothingness.
"You've barely even helped out." Mary twitched her brows when she saw how much Vanessa was complaining. She was the one with the black eyelid, given that all the difficult parts were done by her and Shi Tian barely helped her out.
anwhile, Shi Tian held a guilty smile and handed her a Magical Electrolytes(Magel) drink. "Here, drink this to rejuvenate yourself."
Mary didn't bother to say anything, grabbed the drink, and began drinking nearly half the bottle in one gulp.
As soon as she drank the Magel, Mary's facial complexion turned for the better, and it was clear that the effect of the drink was effective.
In an instant, Mary went from the appearance of a near-dead person to a revitalized and energized person.
"Nathan, next ti, if you pull a stunt like this again. I'm going to rip your head off." Mary gazed at Shi Tian coldly and threatened. Never once did she expect that she would need to sit for so long, crafting for who knows how long.
This was precisely the thing she hated the most which prompted her to give up the chanic path.
Yet Shi Tian had inevitably caused her to do the very thing she hated, so how could she not wish to strangle him alive?
Naturally, Shi Tian understood now was not the ti to argue or refuse her.
Thus, he nodded his head and promised her.
"Rest assured, Mary. I'll never do things like this alone without permission." He said solemnly, sounding very convincing.
"Hmph, you better do as you say." Mary clicked her tongue and snorted.
"And you, don't think I didn't see you laughing just now, Vanessa." Mary suddenly turned around and glared at Vanessa.
Vanessa, who was gloating earlier, quickly revealed a deadpan expression, seemingly trying to act innocent.
Seeing her action, Mary was too lazy to even bother with this eccentric heir.
Her physical appearance might have recovered, but her ntality was still in shambles. So arguing with Vanessa now was not the best choice to make. Thus, she shook her head and decided to walk to the back.
"Tsk, she's so imposing." After Mary had walked away, Vanessa crossed her arms and voiced her mind.
"Imposing as she might be— the very least is that she got the qualification to do so." Shi Tian calmly responded.
"Similarly, you have the qualification to be haughty to those military commanders, and they are unable to do anything to you because of your status."
"Well, that's just natural." Vanessa shrugged.
"Since that's natural, then it's only natural for Mary to be imposing as well. Even though everything went well in the end, it was still sowhat my fault that caused her to assist in the craft." Shi Tian explained, having felt guilty for causing Mary to be troubled.
If his skills weren't that terrible and could have t the deadline himself, then Mary wouldn't have needed to drop her work to assist him. He was positive that Mary had been trying to survey the situation the entire ti.
However, thanks to him, he had caused Mary to be unable to check up on others which could potentially be bad for them if they failed to notice sothing was amiss.
And just now, Mary might have seed like she was going back to rest, but Shi Tian knew she was definitely checking up on the recording of the past few hours to backtrack.
As Shi Tian was silently thanking Mary for her effort, so military soldiers had arrived outside of the Iron Sentinel.
"Looks like they are really adamant on the ti." Shi Tian smiled awkwardly.
