MAXIMUM VENGEANCE

Kill troggs in the Scrapbone Den area, west of Rustbolt. Ignore the Dismantled OOX-35/MG in the area; you can click on them, but they don't give you giblets.
Collect 20 and turn in to the OOX-Bomber/MG mechanical chicken, which is at 54, 32 (not on ground level. Use the path going up at 55, 35 and follow to the right). Your new chicken friend will fly you back to Rustbolt.

If you feed the dismantled Oox-35s, they have a chance of spawning as a rare, which drops the cageable/sellable OOX-35/MG battle pet

Description

If you've spent any time with that arrogant nitwit, Overspark, you know why I'm here. To silence his boasting and finally prove that my inventions are better! I've released countless mechanical chickens across this island to analyze the technology here, adopt it, and evolve their own circuitry. One of them will become my ultimate battle chicken! But those idiot troggs think my chickens are edible and keep bashing them. Protect them, so my techno-evolutionary experiment can run its course.
