From Fish to Dragon 66 Machinery Peak

Next the two boys visited the Machinery Peak which like the name implies focuses on dealing with machinery. They deal with all types of things from vehicles to siege weapons to everyday products like a microwave

Unlike the Medicine Peak which was full of nature, the Machinery Peak is similar to the Blacksmith Peak in that it appeared like a barren land but instead of having lava flowing down the sides of it, the peak had all kinds of machinery and devices placed down and ready to activate at any time

As the two brothers walked by, the machines scanned them and displayed their ID's on a monitor nearby. One of the engineers who wasn't busy welcomed them to the peak. "Welcome juniors, if there is anything you'd like to ask please feel free to come and bother me. I have nothing else to do anyways for the rest of the day."

Ye Qin nodded, though he didn't have any questions and just looked around. To his surprise, a young woman around his age wearing the same clothes as those on the Blacksmiths Peak wore, sat on a huge pile of metal and junk as she tinkled away with some work in her hands

"Ah that is our Peak Master's granddaughter, she's been involved in machinery all her life. Following in the footsteps of her grandfather, machinery is a part of her life." the senior from before said

The two boys nodded as they scanned the pile of junk beneath the girl. From a glance, they could see that the girl is a beauty, though from head to toe she is dressed like a middle aged man who does labouring. The girl's tanktop that she wore looked as plain as the others with just a single color throughout, with just a single look one could tell that she isn't wearing any underwear but at the same time her private places were covered as if the clothes had a mind of its own and protected its wearer

"A strange one." Wang Tao said. The senior nodded to his casual remark as the three continue their tour of the peak. As they continued exploring, the two eventually met with the Peak Master who was lying down on a giant wrench and having a joyous nap as though he didn't have a single care in the world

The old man wearing the same clothes as his granddaughter and appeared to be very thin as though a soft breeze of wind would send him flying. His student came up to him and nudged him a few times until he woke up. "Hrm? Who woke me up? It was about to get to a good part!" the old man shouted

As he jumped up, his previously thin body as if it was a volcano waiting to erupt, every limb in his body expanded until he became huge but has explosive muscles that seemed like they could easily crush large boulders

"Oh it's you Tang Ci, what brings you here?" he asked

Tang Ci replied, "Ah master, I've brought these two here to look around and greet you". "Ah, so that's it, welcome to the machinery peak, I assume that Tang Ci has done a good job as your tour guide?" the peak master asked as he finally noticed the two brothers

Wang Tal exclaimed internally "WTF! Where did those muscles come from!?" Before replying "Yea, he did a good job." Wang Tao nodded. "Good, good, you didn't disappoint this old man. Now that I'm awake would you two like to see some of my work?" the peak master asked

The two boys nodded as they followed the peak master and Tang Ci into a deeper part of the room where the old man resided

"This here is a mechanism that I designed in order to automatically shift the position of the ground slowly without anyone noticing. Well it didn't go so well and frankly used up quite a large budget so I had to eventually give up on it." the peak master pointed out

"That there is a device I made that converts the air into bubbles that can be sealed up and contained. Well that too didn't go so well…" he said

"..."

"..."

The peak master showed the two around and displayed some of his lifetime's work. Seeing so many failures, Wang Tao couldn't help but ask "Are there any that you didn't fail?"

"Ah… erm… well you could say that it was a success I guess? When I was a wee little boy about 7 or 8 I created a device that can change the flavors of anything kind of food you can think of. The downside was that the converted flavor was random and even had flavors such as vomit or booger…" the peak master said as a bead of sweat slid down his forehead

"..."

"..."

The four people looked at each other awkwardly as if the world only consisted of the four of them. As a soft breeze blew by, Ye Qin said "Have you ever considered working on things with the Blacksmithing Peak?"

"..."

"That… you shouldn't talk about the Blacksmithing Peak in front of the master…" Tang Ci replied slowly. The peak master pretended that he didn't hear Ye Qin's question and said "If there's nothing else, I would like to go first." the peak master excused himself

"Oh no, please." the two said as the peak master left the three of them behind. Once he was far out of sight, Wang Tao asked Tang Ci "Senior, what's the story behind the peak master and the Blacksmithing Peak?"

"Well it's a long story but I don't know the details myself. To keep it brief, long ago the peak master and the master of the Blacksmithing peak were best friends. They grew up together, played together, went to school with each other and played pranks on each other when they weren't indulged in their hobbies. Eventually came a time when they had a falling out and didn't talk to each other."

"It's been about 20 years since then I guess? Well that's all I know." Tang Ci answered truthfully

"I see, thank you for telling us. We will be taking our leave." Ye Qin replied. "I see, then I won't keep you here. If fate will let the two of you join the peak then let us meet again." Tang Ci said as he left the two brothers

When it was just the two of them, Wang Tao said "I wonder what happened between the two peak masters." Ye Qin nodded "Who knows, let's go visit the six remaining peaks."

Wang Tao nodded as the boys left the Machinery Peak and headed for the Design Peak
