442 Final meeting before departure

"A new round of waste removal will start soon, and I went to check on the construction of the air corridor and everything went well. The tall buildings needed for the plan are already in place, and once the factory starts this round of adjustments, the selected buildings will be gathered to build the Sky Exploration Tower. "You need to get to the top of each factory as you climb up. This won't be difficult, just carry the sky corridor on the outer wall of the building. ”

"Why don't you wait for the Sky Explorer Tower to be built and then go straight to the top of the tower through the Sky Corridor?" asked Cast, "Is it risky to use the Sky Corridor during the climbing of the plant?" ”

"Because of the time. Yamate pressed on the triangle iron table, and a model of Gear City emerged, "You should be very familiar with the whole process of cleaning up the waste. Oh, and there are two new semi-finished products that may not be very clear, and I will explain them a little more.

"The process of cleaning up waste is about two stages, one is the gestation or preparation stage. At this stage, Cogwheel City needs to collect waste materials and wait for the signal from the cleanup area. The second is the dumping stage, where the collected waste and the old plant must be transported to the clean-up area, where it will be destroyed in a centralized manner. In the second stage, the scrap is pumped into the clean-up area from the dome. As the mountain explains, another whirlpool appears in front of the Gear City model, representing the scrap cleanup area.

When Catherine heard this, she realized what had happened to her and the Ice Bear Abyss in the Parts Desert. There was no offensive or defensive battle at all, the machine golems sent out in Gear City were just scraps, and even the weird metal giant made of tall buildings was just an old factory to be abandoned. But this truth made Catherine feel extremely ridiculous, but in the desert of parts there was a behemoth - the ruler Hisurus, was it just a waste-eating cleaning device?

No, Fei Sulu obviously spoke to himself in his mind. And above the dome, Catherine had seen a huge red eye, was that also an illusion?" "We must be ready in the first stage so that the second stage can fly to the dome." Mountain finally said.

"Do you want us to investigate the source of the molten steel?" Casting was familiar with the situation and immediately understood the intention of the mountain.

"Yes. The source of the molten steel is the best point of exploration, since the molten steel can be injected in, it is naturally connected to the outside of the box. Mountain nodded.

"Even if the source is connected to the outside, it's not an exit. Casting shook his head.

"Instead of aimlessly exploring the heavens, it is better to find a breakthrough. "Mountain's words are still very convincing.

At least Catherine felt that the mountain was right. The sky is vast, and the floodgates infused with molten steel are indeed worth studying. Do these machine golems know about the existence of the gates?

The neighborhood was full of dangerous fires and lightning.

Catherine turned her head to look at the Ice Bear Abyss, and although she was wearing a masked helmet, the Ice Bear Abyss read Catherine's inquiring gaze and nodded slightly.

"Guys, I have something to say. "By coincidence, we witnessed the last scrap removal process, and we were close to the source of the molten steel. ”

Catherine's words immediately attracted the attention of the others, and the mountain's body leaned forward slightly, and the giant mouth that had been lying on the ground also raised the wolf's head.

"How can you get close there?" Casting asked the question that everyone else was concerned about.

"I don't need to equip Iron Feathers because I have a way to survive in the air. "The source of the molten steel is a huge sluice gate, which is full of flashes of fire, so if we are going to approach the gates, we have to think about how to resist them. ”

"This intelligence is very important. Shan turned to the earth behind him, "Do we have a means to protect against the fire?"

Tu thought for a moment and replied: "I can't find a way to defend against the heat in a short time, but I have a ready-made equipment for lightning, although this equipment was not originally used for defense." ”

"Is it weaponry?" asked the cloud standing on the other side.

"Yes. Arc Gun - When it was first designed, no suitable way to store energy was found, so only three shots were made for this weapon. Tu nodded.

"Go get one, I'd like to see how the arc gun can defend against lightning. Mountain said.

Dirt went to the weapons shop and got an arc gun.

The arc gun has a somewhat peculiar appearance, with a metal disc in front of it that is the size of two palms. The disc is attached to a metal rod the thickness of two fingers, about the length of an arm. The end of the metal rod is inlaid with a contact piece, which appears to be used to control and excite the arc.

Shan fiddled twice with the arc gun.

Tu explained: "When the arc gun was designed, lightning flashes often fell into the city from the sky. The storage shield in front of the arc gun is used to collect the falling flashes, which can be filled up after three flashes, and the arc can be excited after the storage of electricity. ”

"What happens if there is a lightning flash after it is fully charged?" asked Shan.

"Not sure. After the arc gun was made, the lightning did not fall for some reason, so the follow-up tests were too late to do it. Tu replied, "But theoretically, it will burst the storage shield." ”

"And what about the arc's attack power?"

"Because there are no tests, there is no actual data on power and attack range. Tu paused, "But there are some theoretical data in the design, the attack distance is about ten meters, and the power is directly related to the power storage, because the storage power is all excited at one time." When fully charged, it can activate 60% of the attack power of the original three lightning bolts. ”

Yama nodded, placing the arc gun on the table. "Everyone, this kind of arc gun is better than nothing, whether you want to carry it, please consider for yourself. ”

Casting picked up the arc gun and swung it twice. "How strong is this storage shield, and can it withstand a blow?"

"The arc gun was designed with melee combat in mind, and blunt steel was used for both the gun and the electric shield. Tu replied.

"Then I'll have a shot. Casting handed the arc gun to Catherine.

Catherine's hand sank when she took it, and the electric shield slammed on the table with a "dang", but she didn't expect the arc gun to be so heavy. Catherine shook her head, holding the gun in both hands and handing it directly to the Ice Bear Abyss. This weight is not suitable for her at all.

Ice Bear Abyss is very fond of the arc gun, and he has been playing with it for a while. "I'm going to have a shot too. ”

The giant mouth of the Iron Tooth Bar has no interest in the extra gear provided by the Device Club, so the last arc gun goes to Yun.

"From now on, please be patient in your respective shops. As soon as the scrap cleanup begins, I will notify you in a timely manner. The mountain told all those present.

Catherine and the Ice Bear Abyss return to the shop, each adjusting their minds and preparing for the arrival of the departure time.
