When Kane and his team left the outpost, not seeing any sign of Burton, they decided to wait there.

After waiting for a while, they didn't see Burton; instead, Amis and his team showed up.

Looking at their weary expressions, it seemed they were annoyed by those reporters and guild members.

"How was it? Did you join any good guilds?" Kane asked Amis as he approached.

Hearing Kane's words, Amis shook his head and then said, "We didn't join any guilds, but we did hear what you guys said earlier about creating a guild when you reach gold rank. We hope you can let us join at that time."

"Of course, if you're willing to wait, once we create our guild, you'll definitely be the first we invite to join," Kane said, somewhat surprised and delighted.

"Then we will be keeping our eyes on that day when you achieve gold rank."

Amis replied with a smile, then noticing them waiting here, he asked.

"Are you guys waiting for someone here?"

Hearing Amis's words, Kane nodded.

"Alright then, we won't disturb you further."

After saying this, Amis and his team bid farewell to Kane and the others.

Just at this moment, Burton and his team were seen coming from another passage, accompanied by a somewhat scruffy old man and a confused young man.

"This way, brother," Longbei saw Burton and immediately waved and jumped up, shouting.

This voice instantly caught Burton's attention, and he rushed over, with the old man and the young man hurrying to follow.

They should have exited much earlier, but Master Rob said his calculations reached an important point, so they stayed a bit longer in the viewing area, only to be thrown out by the dungeon.

"Sorry for the delay inside, making you wait so long," Burton said upon reaching Kane and the others.

Then he stepped aside: "By the way, Kane, these two are from the Mechanical Association, here to see you."

"Mechanical Association?" Kane was a bit puzzled, thinking it might be another recruitment attempt.

Upon hearing Burton's words, the old man and the young man quickly stepped forward.

Master Rob reached out wanting to shake hands courteously with Kane, but realizing his hands were a bit dirty, he wiped them on his clothes, and when that didn't work, he gave up.

"Hello, I am a master from the Mechanical Association, my name is Rob."

"Hello, I'm Kane."

After listening to Kane's words, Rob nodded and, somewhat excitedly, said, "Yes, of course, you're Kane, I certainly know about you; I've been watching you in the dungeon. Your mechanical structure skills are very advanced, and the mechanical devices you've invented are incredibly innovative. Even the core technology seems to differ from the current mainstream..."

This Mechanical Master, whenever discussing mechanical issues, seemed to become thoroughly absorbed.

The young man behind him quickly stepped up to interrupt.

Only then did Master Rob realize and say, "Oh, oh, sorry, you see, when I start talking about this subject, I just go on endlessly."

Kane waved his hand and said, "No worries, it's quite natural, but since you know Burton, you should also know I won't be joining other organizations."

"Oh, yes, yes, of course," hearing Kane's words, Master Rob nodded and then said, "It isn't about truly joining us, rather it's about taking a title and becoming an honorary member of the Mechanical Association."

Taking a title to become an honorary member, this kind of arrangement Kane understood, and he was quite interested in joining the Mechanical Association in such a manner.

Organizations like this kind follow the Mist Council's management, they are relatively loose organizations, primarily spreading and developing knowledge based on their names.

Many people who like the knowledge represented by a certain association would take the title or become honorary members of such associations.

It doesn't interfere with their regular life, nor are there any compulsory rules.

Thinking of this, Kane asked, "So, if joining the Mechanical Association in this way, what do we have to contribute and what can we gain?"

Upon hearing Kane's question, Master Rob was actually quite confused, as he didn't know the finer details of it.

He immediately turned to look at the young man beside him.

The young man immediately understood his teacher's intent and quickly stepped forward to converse with Kane: "Hello, I am a disciple of Master Rob, my name is Dor, Dor Krich. Just call me Dor, your performance in the dungeon, I've been watching as well, incredibly strong, especially with that Origin Skill constructing those machines, that was just... "

"Ahem!" Watching his disciple's conversation divert, Rob hurriedly coughed to remind him.

Upon hearing his teacher's cough, Dor immediately realized what he was supposed to do.

Watching this teacher-disciple duo, Kane and his team were a bit amused; it must be said that they truly were alike in speech and manner.

Dor composed himself and continued.

"If you become an honorary member of the Mechanical Association, it's no different from being an honorary member in other associations, compared to ordinary people, you simply get more access to higher-level knowledge and more comprehensive services.

Correspondingly, no price needs to be paid; but if there is novel knowledge or mechanical-related information, it can be submitted to the association which will reciprocate with Contribution Points.

These Contribution Points could then be exchanged for higher, core mechanical knowledge and intelligence. If there are significant contributions, the honorary member could be promoted, ultimately gaining free access to core knowledge. Who knows, maybe even joining exploration teams to explore firsthand Mechanical Dungeons infused with mechanical elements."
