Chapter 489: New Mechanical Armor

It's actually quite simple. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Mechanical armor" is not simply worn on the pilot's armor, but a mecha driven by the magic crystal steam engine, the pilot's personal strength is not worth mentioning compared with the strong horsepower of the steam engine, when you manipulate the mecha to split a knife, it is not their own strength that determines the damage, but the output power of the steam engine, in the process of making a move, it is really up to the pilot to grasp the angle and direction of the attack, these factors determine whether the knife can hit the enemy, and the attribute of correcting the hit rate is agility - the more sensitive the response, the faster the move, and the higher the hit rate.

Of course, mechanical armor is a complex and heavy machine after all, and its mobility has an upper limit, much like a warrior wearing full-body heavy armor, no matter how high the agility is, it is also limited by the constraints of the armor itself. Specifically, in the case of the new mechanical armor "Yangbo Mecha" developed by Morozov, the maximum agility correction limit is +4, which means that a pilot with an agility attribute of 18 can give full play to the performance of the mechanical armor, and if the agility is higher, it is as high as Veronica, which is equivalent to waste.

Compared with the Qualich device, the Yangbo mecha has two major improvements intuitively: one is that it is closer to the human body, and the other is that it is equipped with a long-range weapon, a magic crystal rapid-fire cannon that fires 2-pound armor-piercing shells.

Within a given range, the lethality of the Crystal Cannon is also relatively stable, and the pilot needs to control the hit rate, and as we all know, the hit rate of ranged weapons can also get agility attribute bonuses - the higher the agility, the more accurate the aim, the faster the rate of fire, and of course, the higher the hit rate.

"Mr. Morozov, how much does the new mechanical armor you invented cost?" Roland asked.

"Almost 50,000 gold coins." Morozov replied calmly. In his opinion, the cost was already very low, but Roland smiled bitterly when he heard it.

Whether it is for the sake of actual combat needs, or to satisfy the "mecha complex" before the crossing, the moment he saw the Yangbo mecha just now, he was indeed moved, if the price is right, he really wants to purchase a batch of mecha and establish a mecha special team for the Kolas Army. However, when he heard Morozov say the bidding code, he immediately strangled this thought, which was too expensive.

Seeing the change in his face, Morozov smiled slightly, and even showed his lobbying skills, which had been tested for years in order to obtain R&D funds: "Mr. Roland, do you think machines are more valuable or talents?" ”

Roland immediately felt that the momentum of the old boy Molozov had changed greatly, and through the smile on his face, he could sense a mysterious aura called "Great Flicker Aura" emanating from him, and subconsciously pressed his money bag to be secretly vigilant, and replied quietly: "This question needs to be analyzed in detail, depending on what kind of machine and what kind of talent." ”

Morozov lit a bucket of tobacco, took a deep breath, and smiled: "Let's take the average level of the Baiou Harbor Coast Guard as an example, according to statistics, the average professional level of five thousand officers and soldiers is level 5, let's assume that this gentleman with average physical fitness and intelligence level is a level 5 warrior, so how much money and time do you think it will cost to train this average gentleman into a level 10 warrior?" ”

Roland frowned and said slowly: "I'm sorry, I don't know enough about this question, so I can't give you a definite answer, I can only guess from experience that it will be a huge investment." ”

"In fact, I have made relevant statistics, Mr. Roland, it takes an average of ten years to train a level 5 warrior to become a level 10 warrior, and the total capital invested will not be less than 100,000 gold coins."

Roland fell silent, and after a long time he spoke: "I have to admit that I was shocked by the data you said, I think you will tell me next that a level 5 warrior piloting a Yangbo mecha can easily defeat a level 10 warrior?" ”

Morozov shook his head and smiled: "Mr. Roland, any comparison of combat power that does not consider the level of equipment is a hooligan, do you agree with this?" ”

"I couldn't agree more, Mr. Morozov." The trap warlock is a profession that relies on intelligence to eat, and Morozov's intelligence attribute of up to 24 is not given for nothing, the logic is rigorous and thoughtful, and Roland has to obey.

"Tier 5 and Tier 10 warriors wear the same armor and use the same weapons to go head-to-head, and the former has little chance of winning; However, when both sides are driving the Yangbo mecha to duel, the combat power shown by the level 5 warrior is not much inferior to that of the level 10 warrior, and the former defeats the latter with better operation skills! What does this mean? Morozov asked himself, unable to hide his excitement, "It means that the biggest benefit of this device of mechanical armor is that it improves the combat effectiveness of low-level martial artists in all aspects from attack to defense, and compresses the strength gap between extraordinary professionals due to the disparity in rank!" Think about it, Mr. Roland, with only one mechanical armor, people can save 10 years of hard training, save at least 100,000 gold coins, and gain the strength to rival high-level warriors, compared to the cost of 50,000 gold coins in mechanical armor, the benefits are obviously much greater! ”

"Given your given contrasts, that's true." Roland cautiously retorted, "But for non-warrior classes, such as spellcasters, the benefits of mechanical armor are less obvious, and more as a defensive device. ”

Morozov shrugged: "You have caught the point, Mr. Roland, mechanical armor is not a toy for legends or archmages, its value lies in actual combat, and on the real battlefield, where will there be so many high-level powerhouses, where will there be so many spellcasters?" The prevalent is the level 5 or so warriors, they are either good at close combat, or proficient in long-range shooting, but they don't know anything about spells, mechanical armor can turn them from cannon fodder on the battlefield into the tactical core of their team, I firmly believe that with the promotion and popularization of mechanical armor, the mode of modern warfare will also change. ”

"Perhaps you are right, Mr. Morozov, and if I had sufficient funds, I would have supported your prophecy with action." However, Roland's current problem is that he is short of money, and his priority is not to buy mechanical armor.

"I said you have been arguing for a long time, what's the point of talking on paper? Why don't you pilot the mechanical armor yourself? Victoria said, holding her arms.

"That's a good idea, Mr. Morozov, can we try it?" Just like his peers on Earth, Roland also grew up watching various mecha animations, and he also had a mecha dream in his heart, but he never thought that he would have the opportunity to realize this more sci-fi dream when he traveled to the fantasy world.

"Of course you can, but you'd better do a physical examination beforehand, after all, the design of the mecha has not been optimized yet, and the shock absorption system is especially bad, and I'm afraid the ladies won't be able to stand that sin." Morozov looked at Nikita with concern in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll do what I can." Nikita is a very good and strong girl, how can she show weakness in front of people? Immediately took out two scrolls, and successively blessed himself with "Cow Power" and "Bear Tenacity", temporarily improving his strength and physique attributes, so as to meet the basic conditions for driving the Yangbo Mecha.

Under the leadership of Morozov, Roland and his entourage rushed to the test site, and five brand-new humanoid mechas, about 16 feet high, were lined up on the tarmac, like a majestic steel giant. (To be continued.) )
