Chapter 30: The Kappa's Troubles

"Oh, I see. "After listening to the intentions of the Nitori www.biquge.info, I already know what their problem is," which means that you have made a large linkage harvesting machine, but the standard batteries you originally prepared can't power them, right?" ”

"It's a shame to say, that's it, we underestimated the energy consumption of this machine, and after it was built, because the space was fixed, we couldn't do it if we wanted to increase the battery. Nitori covered his face.

"May I ask, what does this thing look like?"

"Yes, we designed a humanoid machine. Nitori took a moment from the large bag on his back and pulled out a stack of drawings, "That's it." ”

"Humanoid?" I looked at the drawings for a while, and found that the rest of the design was fine except for the energy, but the design had one thing in common with my Wanderer series, which was that only two arms were far more precise than the rest of the body. "What the hell are you going to harvest? ”

"Cucumbers. "Nitori didn't hide it, "The god of the Monster Mountain, Aki Suiko, gave us some special cucumbers, and after planting them, the yield per mu was 880,000, and we really couldn't harvest it, so we made this thing." ”

"Okay, I can fix this, but on the other hand, I'd like you to check my creation with the eyes of the kappa as well, and let me know if there's anything you think could be improved, okay?" I offered a condition she couldn't refuse.

"No problem. Naturally, he couldn't refuse, "But aren't you afraid that I'll steal your design?"

"To be honest, I don't really care. ”

"Why?"

"To be clear, I don't mean to belittle or disdain Kappa, but as far as I'm concerned, even if you did take all the design materials, you wouldn't have made anything like Exile Zero. "It's not that your technology is not good, it's that your materials are not good, as it is written above, you are still making steel, and my Exile Zero is made of pure gold and vanadium alloys, which are fundamentally different. ”

"I haven't seen either metal. ”

"That's the problem, if I give you the blueprints, I'm pretty sure you can make something with the same appearance, but it's just the appearance, because simple steel can't withstand such a strong body performance, if you really use steel to make a mecha with exactly the same performance, it will disintegrate within a minute of starting, of course, you can also reduce the performance until the steel body is enough to withstand it, but the result is just a toy that is more than enough than the top. ”

"I agree with you, material is a serious matter. "Nitori, who is also a master mechanic, understands what I'm saying.

"Come with me, I'll show you Exile Zero. "I walked into the Exile's Hangar in the basement with Nitori.

"Well, to be honest, I don't understand. Nitori scratched his face in embarrassment, "Any notes or something?"

"Oh, there's a blueprint and a list of gear on the table next to you. "At this point, I had already arrived at the assembly workshop in Area B and started to design the energy source of the harvesting machine, and the dialogue with the load was carried out through the communication panel.

"Well, I'll take a look......" Nitori picked up the list of equipment, "Boxing-type beam sword...... Fixed on the right wrist...... I said, doesn't this fixation have the problem of being less flexible when it turns?"

"There is this problem, but after changing to a handheld type, there is no way to directly use nanocores for energy. "I put my head down at work.

"Then it can't be helped. Nitori shook his head, "Well, the triple high-energy beam cannon...... On the left wrist...... Two firing modes, powered by the energy plate...... Why doesn't this extract energy from the nanocore?"

"Because the consumption is too large, if the energy is extracted from the nanocore, the overall endurance of the body will be shortened, but I want to strengthen the output of the nanocore, but I don't have any good ideas. ”

"This thing has two firing modes?"

"yes, do you see those three barrels? ”

"See, it's hidden. ”

"A mode is a super-large output charged three-beam light cannon that depletes the energy plate at one time, that is, three barrels are fired at the same time, and B mode is a semi-automatic single-beam light cannon with a capacity of 9 rounds, each barrel can shoot three times, and then the energy plate will be exhausted. ”

"If I shoot in B mode a few times and then use A mode, can I still use it?"

"Can be used is usable, but according to the different energy remaining, the power after charging will decrease to varying degrees. "I put the freshly hammered shell in the cooling bucket to cool.

"By the way, I remember that light refracts in water, can this thing be used underwater?"

"Yes, do you see that little part on the triple barrel, it's a polarizing system, not only does it keep the beam cannon from deflecting underwater, but it also increases the power of the beam cannon underwater by 20%. ”

"This ...... Is it called the Reaper rapid-fire cannon?" Nitori pointed to the Reaper rapid-fire cannon, "Why don't the position of the trigger and handle match the position of the mech's palm?" ”

"You look carefully at the place where it is connected, do you see that slide? It is locked when not in use, as soon as you unlock it when you use it, and then stretch your arm forward or to the side, the Reaper rapid-fire cannon will slide over by itself, you see if the position of the trigger and the handle match the hand after sliding over, and when you are done with it, stretch your hand up, and then lock it after it slides back. ”

"So the connection structure of the Zero Wave Generator on your left is the same?"

"yes. "I banged on another shell.

"What's behind your boxing-type beam sword and triple high-energy beam cannon? ”

"That's a nanoshield. ”

"Oh no, I didn't mean that, it's not the back, I should say it's underneath, the armor below is empty, there are two sticks, what's it for?" ”

"Oh, I forgot about these things, you can wait. "I'll cool the second case," there should be bulk energy plates on the table. ”

"How many are there, how do you use them?"

"Both sticks have grooves on one side, and you can insert the energy plate into them, and then put the grooves together so that you can join them together. ”

"Pick it up. ”

"Twist it. ”

"Screw...... Huh?" he twisted the two short sticks that were joined together, and as a result, the two sides of the short stick actually elongated, and the short sticks that were originally less than one meter together had increased to two meters.

"If you open the armor on the outside of the Exile Zero's thigh, it's also empty, and there are two beam stabbing swords inside, equip them with energy plates, and activate them. ”

"It's so interesting. Nitori's figure was just right for holding two beam swords, "And then?"

"The hilts of the two beam stabbing swords can be connected. ”

"No wonder it's so weird. The two beam swords look like a V-shape when they are joined together, "There is a new socket after being put together, do you want to connect the stick just now?"

"Clever, pick it up. "I put the two shells together.
