Warhammer: The Time Traveler

Chapter 91 Full Upgrade (22nd Update)
Rebecca is next.

She practically skipped into the renovation area, her face beaming with barely suppressed excitement.

"Boss! It's my turn! It's my turn!" she shouted, her voice ringing out loudly in the empty workshop. "I want a more powerful gun! A gun with even greater power! The kind that can send an armored vehicle flying with a single shot!"

Chen Yu's tall, dark red figure turned around, and the crimson optical lens calmly swept over her, offering no comment on her commotion.

His synthesized voice rang out smoothly, getting straight to the point: "Your current physical condition cannot withstand the sustained recoil of higher-level heavy weapons. You need comprehensive and systematic enhancements to support the subsequent integration of weapon platforms."

Without giving her a chance to bargain further, several nimble and cold mechanical tentacles reached out and irresistibly guided her to a special experimental table, fixing her limbs and torso.

Rebecca felt the slight touch of the metal clamps closing, and her excitement was finally mixed with a hint of nervousness about facing the unknown.

The renovation has begun.

Unlike Mann's modification, which focused on local defense and strength enhancement, Chen Yu's transformation of Rebecca was a deeper and more comprehensive systemic reconstruction.

The first step was bone strengthening. A high-frequency energy field enveloped her main limb bones, and nanoscale strengthening materials were injected into the bone microstructure under precise control, tightly binding with the original bone matrix.

Rebecca felt a deep and widespread ache emanating from deep within her bones, as if her entire skeleton was being reforged.

Next comes the optimization of the muscular system.

Finer probes penetrate deep into her major muscle groups, releasing specially formulated catalytic enzymes and energy flows to stimulate structural changes in muscle fibers. At the same time, miniature biomechanical coordinators are implanted to enhance their contraction efficiency and power output limits.

The process was accompanied by a distinct tearing and burning sensation. Rebecca gritted her teeth, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but what she suppressed in her throat was not a cry of pain, but a low growl that was almost excited.

The circulatory and nervous systems were also upgraded simultaneously.

The highly efficient synthetic oxygen-carrying components are introduced into the bloodstream, and the nerve conduction pathways are optimized to meet the higher metabolic demands and faster response requirements of the enhanced body under extreme conditions.

Throughout the process, complex vital signs data and energy flow readings scrolled rapidly on the floating interface in Chen Yu's field of vision. He was like a precise conductor, coordinating this symphony within his body.

The enhancement process lasted for several hours, far longer and more meticulous than Mann's modifications.

When the main strengthening phase ended, Rebecca felt as if she had been reborn, with an unprecedented sense of power surging through her body, and her perception of the surrounding environment had become much more acute.

Only then did Chen Yu take out the new weapon he had prepared for her.

It was an extremely rugged, violently aesthetically pleasing heavy firearm, far exceeding any firearm Rebecca had ever used before, and almost half her height in length.

"Heavy explosive rounds, a model suitable for ordinary people." Chen Yu's introduction was concise and cold. "It uses .75 caliber explosive rounds. A single hit is enough to effectively destroy light armored vehicles or tear apart most known heavy armor."

The recoil is extremely strong; only a systematically enhanced body can use it safely. Even in your current state, you must be mindful of the strain of continuous firing.

He skillfully mechanically connected the heavy bomb gun to the reinforced spinal interface on Rebecca's back and the shoulder support points, and performed neural synchronization calibration.

Next, he installed an external composite sighting device on her right eye: "The sighting system integrates ballistic calculation, threat level assessment, and dynamic target tracking functions. Use ammunition with caution; the supply of this type of explosive is currently limited and cannot support prolonged continuous combat."

Rebecca couldn't wait to activate the weapon system.

The heavy bomb gun emitted a deep, powerful charging hum, hovering steadily on the mounting point of her robotic arm.

Feeling the heavy, reassuring weight of the weapon and the destructive power emanating from its core, a near-obsessive, radiant smile spread across her face, all her previous fatigue and discomfort vanishing: "Awesome! F***ing awesome! That's what you call awesome! Thank you, boss!"

Next up is Pila. Unlike Rebecca, who pursues maximum firepower, Chen Yu's modifications focus more on functionality and battlefield support.

Chen Yu first strengthened Pira's nervous system, especially improving his multi-threaded information processing capabilities and device compatibility, enabling him to better control multiple technical equipment or weapon platforms simultaneously.

The main modification was a new weapon system integrated into the original frame on his back—a compact yet powerful flamethrower.

The fuel tank was cleverly embedded in the rear of his slightly slender torso, and the injection mechanism was connected to the auxiliary mechanical structure of his right arm.

"The flamethrower uses promethium fuel, which is initially refined using local synthesis technology. Although its purity is not up to standard, it is sufficient to meet basic combat needs," Chen Yu explained while making the connection. "It is suitable for clearing clusters of unprotected or lightly protected soft targets, conducting area blockades, or destroying enemy equipment that is sensitive to high temperatures."

At the same time, Chen Yu retained and further optimized his signature long arms, enhancing their joint flexibility and the precision and power of his end-effectors. This not only benefits him in technical maintenance and equipment operation, but also has unexpected effects in close-quarters combat.

Pila was very happy with her new toy.

He tried to move his shoulders, feeling the weight of the fuel tank on his back and the feedback from the connection between the injection mechanism and his nerves. He then nimbly waved his long arms a few times, imagining the scene of hot, viscous flames shooting out of the nozzles. He couldn't help but let out his unique, slightly neurotic chuckle: "Hehe, this is going to be fun! Let's see who dares to complain about my long arms now!"

Falco was the last to enter the workshop.

As the team's driver, his approach to modification differed from everyone else's.

Chen Yu did not install any direct offensive weapon systems on him, but instead focused on optimizing his nervous system, reaction speed, and environmental awareness to the extreme.

A sophisticated array of neural interfaces and sensory enhancers were carefully implanted into specific segments of his spine and related areas of his cerebral cortex.

This system significantly improved his information processing speed, dynamic visual capture capabilities, spatial perception accuracy, and multi-task parallel processing capabilities.

"Your core responsibility is to control the vehicle and ensure the team's strategic mobility in various complex and high-risk environments." Chen Yu explained his design logic during the final calibration and debugging. "This 'vehicle driver' assistance system allows you to maintain a clear mind, keen perception, and accurate decision-making in environments such as driving at extreme speeds, avoiding complex terrain, and even under certain degrees of gravity overload."

It can help you anticipate potential threats and plan the optimal route. In the future, if resources and conditions permit, you will be equipped with a dedicated vehicle that better suits your enhanced abilities.

Chen Yu already had a preliminary idea in his mind: once the dimensional teleportation technology was stable enough to establish a reliable connection, he might be able to get a relatively universal "Knight Squire" mech from the Warhammer universe.

Although such war vehicles are far less powerful than real knight mechs, their handling characteristics and the requirements for pilots are exactly what Falco is currently focusing on improving.

Falco experienced the changes after the renovation was completed.

The whole world seemed to slow down in his perception. Every subtle feedback from the vehicle and every dynamic of the surrounding environment flooded into his consciousness with unprecedented clarity and was quickly processed into useful information.

He attempted to simulate an extremely complex chase route in his mind, calculating at an astonishing speed.

He gently pushed up his sunglasses and nodded steadily.

He understood that in a team, the ability to safely, quickly, and efficiently deploy everyone to the mission location or evacuate them from danger was just as important as unleashing firepower on the front lines.

When Rebecca, Pila, and Falco completed their modifications and regrouped outside the workshop, Mann's team's tactical setup was greatly enhanced and improved.

Rebecca's heavy bomb gun provides astonishing destructive power beyond any previous direct-fire weaponry, enough to tear through solid defenses in head-on confrontations; Pila's flamethrower brings valuable area suppression and cleanup capabilities, effectively dealing with swarm tactics or specific environmental targets; and Falco's deep enhancement is like equipping the team with sharper eyes and more stable legs, greatly improving overall mobility and survivability.

This team, gradually forged by Chen Yu, is transforming into something that transcends the realm of street mercenaries.
