As he began mentally planning a hydraulic system to enable him to run at a fast speed, he suddenly realized he coould have used 'Eyes of the Machinist' to spy on Cole and make sure he wouldn't walk in on him building a mech. Recycling his hollow rod, he saved it as a blueprint to allow him to combine it mentally with a plug and a circuit board he had created blueprints for already to create a directional control valve. This would be used to control the direction of the flow of water in the closed system to enable movement. After accomplishing this, he got a new skill, along with a better understanding on how to use the nanomachines.

'What if I designed the "brains" or circuit boards to be the size of the nanobots? That'd make them difficult to hit, should I end up fighting to escape. However to do so, I need to be able to modify the internal structure of my nanobots.' Salem began contemplating tbe route he would take in the development of his ability. As he did, Cole entered with another person. The newcomer was buff, short and built like a hobbit on all of the steroids in existence. As Salem examined the newcomer he heard Cole say: "See? With this level of nerve damage, so long as he has a useful ability and you buy him, he can't run away."
Salem's worst fears had become reality.
