A small five-member band of USS Burrenshire's sailors, carrier-based ground crew, and marines played cheerful music, and the guests at the banquet conversed in a soft and gentle tone as they ate.

Professor Emrath took the opportunity to talk about his N-neutron jammer project, and he spoke in great detail, as if trying to get everyone's attention.

"So, the original intention of Dr. Hakassé's involvement in the development of N-neutrons was to establish an unimpeded channel of information exchange among citizens through the new technology of the mind-sensing architecture?" Xiao Yan ate a small piece of steak, wiped his mouth and asked the professor not far away, "It doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the N neutron jammer."

In order to maintain etiquette and not snub every guest, Sonia and Captain Mugel, who are the focal points, eat very little. Officers in the combat department ate quickly so that they could stop and talk immediately if needed. When Xiao Yan asked this question, almost everyone at the table stopped and looked at Xiao Yan and the professor with interest.

"So to speak," replied the professor, "but this utopian idea is destined to be unbudgeted." Dr. Khakase, who had spent a lot of effort trying to find a patron, sought to work with me on a new piece of mobile armor. N neutrons have great potential for the amplification of mental and psionic energy, so the possibility of collaboration between the two of us has emerged. The Psychopathic Framework, as one of the core subsystems, received a grant from the military along with my N-neutron jammer project. ”

"If psychic ...... Well, what's the matter, the psychic framework is complete," Ophelia raised her eyebrows, "Isn't it possible for everyone to be a psionic user?" I feel like I'm being less worthy. ”

Captain Mugel shook his head: "Judging from the current effect, the system developed by the Doctor should use external auxiliary equipment to improve the user's psychic ability, not the development of psionic energy. We can think of this project as a more complex and effective communication device. ”

"Where are we now?" Xiao Yan took the time to eat a pan-fried salmon, "I have briefly ridden the mobile military uniform on the ground, although I have not yet experienced the effect of unimpeded communication. However, um~ does have a strange feeling of perception being amplified. ”

"Oh!!" Professor Emrath smiled delightfully.

"The information on the ground is too mixed, and the psychic system is deployed there beyond the carrying capacity of the existing technology, Mr. Knight." Captain Miu Gel looked at Xiao Yan and smiled lightly, "There are research theories that the existing carrier-based aircraft cannot give full play to the full potential of the airframe in space and air combat, and the main reason is that after entering the three-dimensional world, it is difficult for pilots to grasp and use global information without a reference object; In addition, the structural characteristics of the fighter have certain inconveniences for the extension of the pilot's perception. ”

Sonia understood the captain's subtext: "So, the humanoid mobile suit equipped with a psychic frame can strengthen the pilot's spatial perception in space and give full play to the ability of the airframe?" ”

"At least theoretically," the professor said, "by extending telepathy to mechanical parts similar to the human body, mobile armor will be ...... No, it's the unleashing of unprecedented mobility and perception. ”

All the officers present held their breath.

"And that's just the first step," Sonia gently lowered her glass, "and I'm sure this was just Dr. Hakase's rhetoric when he pitched his invention to the council." The deeper reasons don't stop there. ”

"Miss Senate is really ice and snow smart." The professor exclaimed sincerely: "That's right, it's just a façade.

"Dr. Hakass's real hope is to expand the realm of human consciousness, and with the help of the psychic system, it will eventually be possible for all people to communicate in the depths of consciousness, without any hidden candid communication."

This is the terminology...... Sounds the same as the collective**...... Xiao Yan's gaze unconsciously froze on Captain Miygel's towering chest and slender waist not far from the dining table.

Sonia noticed his gaze and stomped him hard under the table.

"Ah...... Ah that, it's better to ...... Why don't you let me experiment as a test pilot," Xiao Yan, who was trampled on, quickly pulled the topic back again, "I heard that your mobile uniform flight control and system debugging have not been completed, and now letting the test pilot on the test pilot is equivalent to killing someone." ”

"Really? Can it really be? The professor's eyes lit up, and Captain Mijel couldn't help but look at him.

"Actually, it's not that unsafe," the professor hurriedly defended, noticing that his gaffe would make people think that the mobile suit would kill the test pilot, "as long as the output power is controlled, the test link is controllable." Of course, there is still a bit of danger to ordinary people, and a Templar like Lord Blanton should not have a problem. ”

"Then it's decided," Xiao Yan was still grinning in pain, "I can test it between voyages and battles." If Captain Mijel could approve it. ”

"Of course," the beautiful captain nodded, "my battleship and carrier-based aircraft wing will fully cooperate with the professor's and Mr. Knight's tests. ”

After dinner, Xiao Yan was given permission to test his mobile uniform. The carrier-based aircraft air fleet of the USS Burrenshire also specially allocated a fleet of fighters to cooperate with him.

"I was too hasty to start before, but now I'd like to introduce you formally!" Professor Emrath accessed Xiao Yan's cockpit through remote communication, "This experimental mobile uniform, codenamed 'Stalker', theoretically has more than three times the battlefield perception of traditional fighter jets. On top of that, the Chaper's firepower, defense, and speed are unmatched by traditional space fighters. However, N-neutron jamming is his killer weapon, and all the existing radars cannot lock on to the pursuers. Well, we can simply go against carrier-based fighters to collect data. ”

Xiao Yan was already basically familiar with the manipulation of this stalker. Aided by the Extraordinary's strong physical fitness and perception, he was able to increase the Stalker's power output to more than 60% from the start.

"Knight, we're about to get started, are you ready?" The squad leader of the four carrier-based aircraft participating in the exercise asked.

"Let's go, Second Lieutenant," the cockpit began to tremble as it accelerated, and under the propulsion of the powerful engine, Xiao Yan's plane disappeared into the dark starry sky like a meteor.

"The test began, and the goal of the test was to prevent the pursuers from attacking our target," said the lieutenant of the carrier-based aircraft, "The No. 3 and No. 4 aircraft launched a posture to seek the enemy, and the No. 2 aircraft kept a distance from me, and we had the assistance of the ship's radar, so it should not be difficult to find him." ”

Sonia watched the test exercise along with Captain Mujel, along with a number of combat officers. Xiao Yan's pursuer was still on the display screen of the ship's radar at first, but he disappeared soon after the start of the fight.

"The pursuer turned on the N neutron jammer," the lieutenant of the carrier-based aircraft reported, "and we lost our target." But we have four fighters, and we can search through information networking, and the pursuers will be besieged as soon as they are spotted by a carrier-based aircraft. ”

Professor Emrath on the bridge chuckled, "In the next test, I'll install an angular reflector lens on the pursuer to amplify his radar signal and make it easier for everyone to find." ”

"No. 3 machine found ...... eye" The No. 3 machine of the test team suddenly disconnected in the middle of speaking. This shows that he was attacked by Xiao Yan and has been judged to have been shot down.

"The stalker's signal flashed, and I lost him again!" The pilot of No. 4 hurriedly reported.

Before the test team could take countermeasures, the No. 2 plane, which was covering the captain's aircraft, lost its signal.

"I'm the No. 1 machine, get closer to me! Hell, my wingman was killed! This thing is so fast! I'm locked out! The test lieutenant hurriedly accelerated, trying to get rid of Xiao Yan's attack, "Move closer to me!" ”

"I'm coming, Captain! Please indicate the attack mode! Plane 4 sped towards the airspace of the captain's plane, "Captain, please indicate the attack mode?" Captain! ”

In the end, Plane 4 did not wait for instructions, and he was also judged to have been shot down less than 2 minutes after the signal of the captain plane disappeared.

The onlookers on the bridge didn't even understand what was happening, and the test was over. Until this time, everyone had not found Xiao Yan and the stalker who had been disturbed by N neutrons and hidden.

"10 minutes. It took 5 minutes for the Stalkers to open the raid and 5 minutes to take out 4 carrier-based aircraft. Ladies and gentlemen, in the face of the mobility advantages of N neutron jamming and mobile armaments, traditional carrier-based aircraft are simply at the mercy of others," Professor Emrath came to the display screen and bowed triumphantly, "I believe that the performance of the Stalker in actual combat will be even more shocking." ”
