Douluo: Humans in this world are fake gods

Tang Wutong strolled leisurely, shuttling between the display stands.

After walking around for a while, I looked around and noticed a staircase leading to the second floor at the corner.

"Senior, are there any soul guides upstairs?"

"The second floor is filled with advanced soul guides and my personal studio. So it is generally not open to outsiders." Su Luoheng said.

"Studio? Then can I go up and take a look?" Tang Wutong was very excited, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"of course can."

Su Luoheng smiled.

"Then I won't be polite." With that, Tang Wutong skipped upstairs.

Su Luoheng followed closely behind her, looking at her cheering background, with a smile still on his lips, but it did not reach his eyes.

Swipe to open the access control.

Compared to the first floor, the layout of the second floor was not much different. The soul guides displayed on the display stand were generally no less than level seven. The most eye-catching one was the life-size soul guide mecha in the middle.

When Tang Wutong saw it for the first time, she was attracted by it.

She had seen a lot of soul guide armor. A person named Meng Hongchen who participated in the same soul fighting competition had used it.

But this type of armor is basically light and flexible, and most of the soul guide's body is exposed, and it looks more like a set of armor when worn. This fully enclosed humanoid soul guide mecha in front of me is indeed the first time I have seen it.

Tang Wutong couldn't help but walk closer out of curiosity to take a closer look.

The mecha was silver-white in color, emitting a faint cold glow. Two gun barrels extended from each shoulder, and there was a round bead on the chest.

The overall lines are smooth and simple, without fancy and complicated patterns. It looks clear, clean and very coordinated.

The label is affixed to the lower right side of the display stand.

[Soul Guide Mecha (Test Version)]

[Tentative level: eighth to ninth level soul guide]

[Mingdetang independently developed it, using the latest high-strength soul guide materials of the Douluo Federation, and equipped it with soul guide beam guns, soul guide rays, rail guns, soul guide shields and other weapon systems. ]

[Possessing strong defense, speed, offensiveness, and destructive power. The combat power is raised to the highest level of Titled Douluo. ]

[The mecha is difficult to operate, consumes a lot of energy, and lasts for a short time. It requires a soul master of at least level 80 to control it.]

【…】

Tang Wutong was secretly shocked.

After reading a long introduction, she remembered one sentence: Wearing this set of armor, your combat power is equivalent to that of a Titled Douluo.

The rest is no longer important.

There seems to be only one level difference between a level 89 Soul Douluo and a level 90 Titled Douluo, but with the blessing of the soul core, the actual combat power gap between the two is as insurmountable as a chasm.

This armor can do that.

The value of this alone is enough to offset all the flaws.

Isn’t it just that it consumes more energy, is more difficult to operate, and has more requirements?

If Contra can be on par with Titled Douluo, what does it matter if it has some limitations and defects?

If it can't be used properly, it only means that there is something wrong with the person. In any case, it definitely won't be a problem with the soul guide armor.

As human beings, sometimes we need to learn to be tolerant with love.

No matter how you look at it, this soul-guided mecha is definitely a masterpiece, and it is well-deserved to be produced by Mingdetang.

Just as Tang Wutong was marveling at the power of this silver-white mecha, Su Luoheng walked over.

"The soul-guided mecha is still in the testing stage. If you are interested, I will keep one for you when Mingde Hall makes the finished product."

"May I?"

Tang Wutong was stunned, wondering if she had heard it wrong. This kind of top soul guide weapon has always been strictly controlled in the Sun Moon Empire. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.

"of course."

Su Luoheng still smiled.

"Then, thank you in advance, Senior~"

Tang Wutong looked at Su Luoheng with joy. She thought it was just a visual feast, but she didn't expect Senior Su to be so generous.

Strict control is relative, and Su Luoheng is obviously not one of them. Since he said he could reserve one for himself, there must be no problem.

"Senior Su, where is your studio?" Tang Wutong, who was in a good mood after unexpectedly booking a soul-guided mecha, remembered the purpose of coming to the second floor in the first place.

"Here it is."

Su Luoheng led the way.

This so-called soul guide mecha produced by Mingdetang is actually a technology developed by the super ancient soul guide research team when they had a sudden burst of inspiration during the process of replicating the Ragnarok series of soul guides.

However, with the example of Ragnarok, the research team naturally looked down upon the technology of soul-guided mechas.

But this is only relative to Ragnarok. In today's soul guide world, it is still at the top level. It's just that there are better options, so it's not worth continuing to invest in research.

Therefore, after Su Luoheng proposed the idea of ​​dual-line development of light and dark, Kong Deming decentralized this technology and Mingdetang was responsible for taking the lead in forming a scientific research team.

Now, the prototype of the soul-guided mecha has been made. After a few more improvements and the promotion of the soul-guided fusion reactor, the soul-guided mecha can be officially mass-produced and put on the market.

Judging from the performance of soul-guided mechas, there will definitely be no shortage of market for them by then.

It is just right to make profits from it and then invest the funds in research, thus forming a virtuous cycle that is self-sufficient.

After the four empires established the federal government, although resources, finances, and population all saw positive growth, correspondingly, various expenditures also reached a terrifying figure.

Except for the Sun-Moon Empire, the other three empires are very weak in the construction and development of education, scientific research, transportation, medical care, and military, and also require large amounts of funds.

Each item has a large funding gap waiting to be filled.

The ultra-ancient soul guide technology is indeed important. When the federal government was first established, it was indeed for the purpose of better researching the ultra-ancient soul guide technology.

But finances have their limits. If one relies solely on government aid to subsidize research into super-ancient soul guide technology, even a country as large as the Douluo Federation would not be able to afford it in the long run.

It may even lead to a fiscal deficit and the collapse of the capital chain... enough to destroy the newly established and still fragile Douluo Federation.

After so much effort to unify the continent, no one wants to see this happen.

The research of super ancient soul guide technology is important, but the stable development of the Federation is equally important. This is the basic foundation for fighting against the God Realm. Without the Federation, there will be no conditions for the research and development of super ancient soul guide technology.

Therefore, we should not only consider the future, but also the present.

Therefore, under the premise of strong support from the federal government, the ultra-ancient research group needs to have its own profitable industries to share the financial pressure and strive to be self-sufficient and grow stronger.

This is also one of the important reasons why Su Luoheng proposed open-line development, in addition to attracting attention from the outside world.

He knew very well that the research on super-ancient soul guides required massive resources and it was impossible to always rely on the Federation.

Soul-guided mecha is their first attempt, and more soul-guided industries will be launched in the future.

but……

Tang Wutong probably won’t be able to wait until the research and development is successful.
