Chapter 74: Seeing Dr. Bellabe Again!
"Not bad. It seems you have made some progress. Although it's not as strong as I imagined, your technology is commendable."
Mu Chuan was quite satisfied. At least he saw Dr. Gero's growth. However, these research results didn't hold much use for him.
So, he asked again, "Do you have any impressive results?"
"I heard you've created many powerful androids. While their combat power may not be strong, their abilities are quite outstanding."
"Yes!"
Dr. Gero then showcased another creation.
"This is the real success, Android 1."
"It possesses 70,000 combat power and has solved the energy problem. It can absorb ambient energy, though the recovery is somewhat slow."
"Still, it's stronger than most other androids."
Android 1 was an alien with a burly physique and a blue body, looking particularly peculiar.
But its combat power was indeed impressive.
The main breakthrough was in energy recovery. This was a significant advancement.
Of course, this method of energy acquisition wasn't particularly advanced or ideal in Mu Chuan's view. His own recovery abilities were far superior, making this less relevant to him.
However, Dr. Gero had made substantial progress, and Mu Chuan didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm.
"Besides Android 1, do you have any other androids?"
"Just bring out all your finished products!"
"Even if there are outstanding failures, that's fine."
The reason Mu Chuan had Dr. Gero research androids wasn't because he believed in their limitless potential, but rather to gain various unique abilities from them.
As for whether Dr. Gero might rebel?
That wasn't within his concerns. As long as his own strength increased rapidly, he would always be the sword hanging over Dr. Gero's head!
Hearing Mu Chuan's words, Dr. Gero continued his introductions.
Androids 2 and 3 were similar to Android 1, not particularly strong but capable of self-recovery.
However, Android 4 had some changes, able to absorb energy from enemies, though the rate was slow, only about one-tenth.
Upon hearing this, Mu Chuan's eyes lit up. This was exactly what he was looking for!
At least this level of research was already impressive, making him view Dr. Gero in a new light.
"Good!"
"Keep going..."
Dr. Gero continued his introductions, with Android 8 showing further advancements. It could reassemble its body at will, breaking into parts.
This was somewhat similar to Baby's ability but different in some aspects.
Each disassembly allowed it to absorb various surrounding energies, enhancing its combat power upon reassembly.
This was an ability from an alien.
Dr. Gero replicated this ability to create such a powerful android.
Dr. Gero then presented all his research results. Whether it was truly everything was uncertain.
After reviewing the results, Mu Chuan was very satisfied. At least he saw the progress in android development. Forming an android army could be terrifying!
"Very good, you've made significant progress. Your technology is beyond Earth's reach."
"But there's still room for improvement."
"Next, you need to mass-produce each model of android. Additionally, implement a self-destruct sequence in them," Mu Chuan said, staring directly at Dr. Gero.
He wasn't afraid of the androids proliferating because he had already demonstrated his overwhelming power.
Until Dr. Gero could surpass him, he wouldn't dare to make any reckless moves.
Moreover, Mu Chuan needed to use the androids to explore the universe.
With Frieza's army under Cooler's control, the entire North Galaxy was in a state of disarray. Without powerful mercenaries, the region would continue to experience chaos.
It was time for the android army to make its appearance!
Faced with Mu Chuan's commanding and aggressive gaze, Dr. Gero dared not hesitate for a moment and quickly nodded.
"Send all the android models to Dr. Bellabe. I have other plans for them."
After saying this, Mu Chuan left immediately, not giving Dr. Gero any chance to object.
Dr. Gero didn't dare to object anyway.
The reason for handing all the models to Dr. Bellabe was to ensure she had backups. Moreover, Mu Chuan intended to see if he could acquire any new abilities from her work. His skill set was too limited.
Whether in combat skills or in recovery and escape abilities, he found himself lacking. He needed to enrich his skill set through various means.
Androids were one aspect, but not the only one. He also planned to visit Planet Yardrat.
Yardrat was a formidable planet.
Its inhabitants weren't strong, but they possessed many bizarre and unique abilities that could greatly enrich his skill set, turning him into a versatile warrior!
After leaving Dr. Gero's lab, Mu Chuan headed straight to Dr. Bellabe's lab without hesitation.
Dr. Bellabe had also acquired alien technology, but her research focus was different. She prioritized support and assistance over direct combat.
Hence, most of the supplies were developed by Dr. Bellabe.
Their labs were also quite different. While Dr. Bellabe's lab appeared high-tech, it lacked robots.
She did most of the work herself.
As Mu Chuan stepped into her lab, an alarm sounded.
Shortly afterward, Dr. Bellabe appeared.
"Mu Chuan, long time no see!"
"Dr. Bellabe!"
Since their relationship was more of a collaboration rather than one of subordination, their interactions were straightforward and uncomplicated.
Dr. Bellabe wanted to research alien technology, and Mu Chuan could provide it.
Thus, they formed a mutually beneficial partnership!
Dr. Bellabe didn't give an elaborate introduction like Dr. Gero. Most of her inventions were already in use by the Saiyans.
She didn't withhold anything, so Mu Chuan was just there to take a look.
After touring the lab, Dr. Bellabe casually asked, "What do you think of Dr. Gero?"
