monster battlefield

Chapter 240 Four-Armed Storm Crimson
"This world...is very wrong!"

One night, Mech Base was rarely busy. It could even be said that it gave everyone a holiday and held a party. After eating and drinking, people broke up.

Just do what you want, and Zhou Shu climbed to the roof of the indoor dock to enjoy the sea breeze.

The weather tonight is also good, there is no cloud in the sky, but the Mecha Base is located in the shipbuilding base, so it can be said to be brightly lit, and it is impossible to see any stars under this kind of light.

Fortunately, it is located at the estuary of the Yangtze River. The ships coming in and out of the sea are all lit up, which is comparable to the night sky.

Behind is the city that never sleeps, and in front is the man-made "starry sky". Lying on a deck chair, Zhou Shu feels very comfortable with the sea breeze blowing.

The reason why he sighed like that was because he looked at his attribute panel again.

To be honest, because I am busy making mechas all day long, let alone fighting monsters, I can't even fight humans.

He now travels with assistants and security personnel. After all, his level and importance are there, so no one is so blind to trouble him. He almost forgot that he has an attribute panel.

I knew before that attributes can be increased without fighting, but that thing is not as intuitive as fighting. After all, it has become a habit to look at the attribute panel after a battle, and I rarely look at the attribute panel when not fighting.

And usually "Xiaoshou" would not remind him, even after entering this virtual battlefield, the number of times Xiaoshou spoke was quite small.

Today, when he was free, looking at the sky, the ground, and the sea, he realized that he was in a virtual battlefield with an attribute panel, not the real chief engineer named Zhou in the world of "Pacific Rim".

The attribute increases very fast, especially the spiritual attribute. For a few months, there is no battle at all, and there is no contact with a god-like opponent. It is almost 11.

The growth of other basic attributes is also good, and they are getting closer to 10.

The growth of the strong vitality field is also quite a lot.

In the King Kong plot before, the five-meter height can show a delicate shape, but when it skyrockets to ten meters, it is just a human-shaped light and shadow.

Now, although he hasn't used it yet, it is estimated that a ten-meter-high fine shape can be easily completed, and it is estimated that it can be made to be more than 30 meters high.

Regardless of the fine shape, if you only pay attention to the size of the light and shadow of the human figure, it is estimated that it can skyrocket to about 60 meters.

Of course, this is just his estimate and he has not actually operated it yet.

Judging from the data, it seems that there is a certain relationship with the percentage of the second stage.

In the second stage, it is estimated that it can reach the [-]-meter level only in terms of size, and the fine shape must be halved.

Well, almost.

Could it be that the increase in the percentage has something to do with the fact that he has been building giant mechs?
Your own fighting form refuses to admit defeat?

The firearms and exoskeleton operations in the weapon application are directly at the full level. No matter how much you practice, you will not be able to upgrade, and the energy will not be invested in it. I don’t know if it is really full level or just can’t be upgraded in this world?
However, in his current state, firearms and exoskeletons are not of much help to him, but what is more outrageous is that the storm crimson mecha is also classified as an exoskeleton.

In fact, it seems reasonable to think about it. After all, the cockpit of Storm Scarlet is not the kind of god-like mecha that lies or sits in it without moving, but a "traditional mecha" that needs to move and is controlled by mechanical transmission.

Both have increased, and they are all very good, but one thing is that the energy consumption of source matter is too large.

After the attribute reaches 10, and after the strong life force field reaches the second level, the energy consumption is a hundred times higher. A few units are consumed at a few tenths, and dozens of units are consumed at a few tenths. It is unbearable.

I thought that two or three hundred points would be enough to consume a long time, but now it seems that it is far from enough.

When we get out of the world of "Pacific Rim", we must find the evolutionary organization to take the other side, and we must torture them to find out how they came to the earth.

After all, there are only so many monsters on the earth. If the source cannot be found after killing them, then his source of energy will be cut off.

It is also a way to directly cross the starry sky, after all, he has already been able to contact the Alliance of Wisdom and Civilization.

It's just that the two sides are too far away. The time for Union Technology to fly here needs to be measured in "years", so it doesn't know how long it will take to fly from the earth to that side.

The other is this world. When his spiritual attributes became stronger and stronger, he also discovered the abnormality of this world. The previous virtual battlefields were all dominated by the hunter system, and they were also linked to the "black technology" of the hunter. ability.

But starting from this world, it seems that he has a closer connection with himself.

The leader is still the hunter system, but the affiliation or foundation of the virtual battlefield is beginning to be linked to his strength.

The stronger his strength, the closer he is connected to the inexplicable cosmic energy, and these inexplicable cosmic energies cause the virtual battlefield to become more and more "out of the virtual and into the real".

It's as if he was a player before, and he can only follow the rules of the game, and he has no access to the server at all.

And now he has become an administrator, not only can play the game, but also contact the server.

Although he doesn't know where the server is, he can connect through the signal, and the server is always open to him.

This is interesting.

Grasp the authority step by step, and it's not very interesting to fight small monsters, unless you fight more powerful monsters. As for the other things, Zhou Shu really wants to know what this "server" is?
You must see it if you have the chance.

The night passed quickly, and the people who had been relaxing all night had a good night's sleep. The next day, it was time for the storm to "go into the water".

Just like the aircraft carrier made almost launch into the sea, the storm crimson mecha has also reached this step, but compared to the long period from the "launch" of the aircraft carrier to the "trial flight", the storm crimson is integrated into one piece.

It was also on this day that the overall storm crimson was finally about to walk out of the indoor dock.

Today is already November 11st. If the previous calculations are correct, then the next monster will almost appear, and it may even appear at any time.

According to the construction plan, the progress of Storm Crimson was slightly delayed. After all, Zhou Shu's plan was mature and perfect, but it was the first time for the whole department to build this thing, so it was a little slower.

But it’s okay, Zhou Shu read all the self-inspection reports and simulated operation reports of Baofeng Scarlet, and basically reached his design goals, and the actual machine test should be no problem.

He even felt that it would be okay to fight the monster directly.

At this time, Zhou Shu was putting on the operation suit with the help of the staff. The place was on the previous test platform. Because the special mecha hangar was being built, it could only be here.

According to the plan, the mecha hangar should have a driver assembly room, and the equipment room should be located at the highest point of the mecha hangar, where the driving and control center of each mech is stored, that is, the operation cabin.

The operation cabin of most mechas is the head of the mecha, but there are exceptions. For example, the operation cabin of Maozi's mecha "Cherno Alpha" in the movie is located on the chest, and the head is the reactor.

Of the four mechas that appeared in "Pacific Rim", almost every mecha is equipped with an escape pod, just above the head, with the exception of Maozi's mecha, which does not have an escape pod.

Because "Cherno Alpha" is the only first-generation mecha in service, and with the old Maozi's fighting spirit, it's either you die or I live. Their pilots have no way out on the battlefield, only victory.

The assembly room is equipped with senior technicians who complete the final assembly for the drivers before leaving the station, including checking the system, testing the neural links, and helping them put on the operating clothes. These tasks must be completed within 7 minutes.

Once the detection is correct, all personnel evacuate the operation cabin, the operation cabin is closed, and then descend to combine with the mech to complete the exit.

The purpose of separating the mecha's head and body is to complete rapid assembly, just like an assembly line, each one is busy with its own tasks.

Otherwise, the head is connected to the body of the mecha, and all items and everyone will be on the mecha during assembly, which is not conducive to a quick attack.

Since Zhou Shu only needs one person to drive the mech, his combat uniform is relatively simple.

Of course, it is only simpler than a multiplayer operating system, and some basic things are still required.

The clothing worn by the driver of the mecha is not only covered with interfaces connected with the mecha, but also has the function of protecting the driver from some injuries.

The operation suit is divided into two layers. The inside is a circuit lining, which looks like a black tights. There are circuit sensors inside. When "man and machine are integrated", the driver's actions will be transmitted to the mech through the sensor.

The outer armor is made of high-density polycarbonate, which is light in texture, has high-quality impact resistance and heat resistance, and protects the driver's body in fierce combat.

There is a special opening in the back of the battle suit, which runs from top to bottom along the human spine, where the spinal cord clamp is installed.

Strictly speaking, the splint is the real connection to humans.

Connected to the human body through the spinal cord clip, the mecha computer can read your brain waves and complete the "neural link".

Usually the spinal cord clamp is soaked in a container filled with normal saline, and during the assembly stage, the spinal cord clamp is stored in a sealed box filled with foam.

The spinal cord clip looks like a half-meter-long "steel centipede". After being picked up by the assembler, many "legs" are still moving, which is actually a self-test.

The style of the helmet is more like a motorcycle helmet, and it is more refined than the helmet of the space suit. It is basically a full-face resin window helmet with relay gel stored inside and oxygen can also be connected.

Relay gel is the medium required to complete the neural link, similar to the electrolyte of a battery, to transmit each other's consciousness and thinking, and it is required for single or multiple links.

Compared with his neat single-person driving, multi-person driving requires technology similar to "mind fusion", and drivers need to share memories, feelings, emotions and even instincts with each other.

To put it bluntly, this is the real "fit", using two people as "one person", one of them becomes the left hemisphere, the other is the right hemibrain, and all thoughts, actions and action instructions are unified.

And "fitting" is not easy, there are many things that need to be adjusted. The shortest time in the previous test was only 7 minutes, unlike him who can finish dressing in 3 minutes and then attack!

That's the advantage of being single!

After the assembly was completed, the staff evacuated the operating room, closed the door of the operating room, and the whole storm crimson belonged to Zhou Shu himself.

Since it was the first test, he couldn't attack directly, but was looking at the head-up display in the cockpit, looking at the data while doing some tests outside.

The huge storm crimson stood in the dock, and the assembly platforms on more than a dozen floors were evacuated, a bit like a rocket launch posture.

This Storm Crimson is different from the Storm Crimson in the movie. It is still painted in red overall and has a large lens and a small head, which indicates that it still has long-range attack capabilities.

And because it is a single-pilot mecha, it is normal for the cockpit to be smaller.

There was only one person, but the interior space was smaller than when there were three people, because Zhou Shu strengthened the protection of the cockpit so that the monster would not be crushed at once.

The height has also been increased to 80 meters, which is 4 meters higher than in the movie. This height is still 10 meters short of reaching the construction height limit of this shipyard.

And that is the limit height limit. Normally, for safety and efficiency, 80 meters is almost the highest.

The other obvious thing is that compared to the original three-arm structure, now this machine can only see two arms, but it actually has four arms, but the other two mechanical arms are folded on the back.

This is a surprise for the monsters.

At the same time, the structure of these two arms is separate from the normal arm. If Zhou Shu can't adapt, the latter two can be taken off.

Others don't know why Zhou Shu has four arms, and how can one person command four arms?

But Zhou Shu is the chief designer, and after the simulation, he can indeed drive the four arms, so he can only build it like this first.

As for the prototype machine, its role is to test various things. If it is easy to use, it will be installed on the later model, and if it is not easy to use, it will be removed.

The design of the mechanical legs is different from that in the movie, no anti-joint legs are used, but legs with normal structure.

Originally, a leg has only one knee, and it turns one bend. It is a very simple structure. In the movie, it is necessary to have an anti-joint, so that one leg has two knees, and it turns two bends. Isn’t this intentionally increasing the complexity of the mechanical structure?

The more complex the mechanical structure, the more error-prone it is, which is what is done in movies for coolness and skills.

The launch test was going on here, and the monster alarm suddenly sounded.

The location of the alarm is the border waters between the US Empire and Canada, and there are two nearest major cities, one is Seattle of the US Empire, and the other is Vancouver of Canada.

And Seattle is the place where the first mecha of the US emperor was built.
