Looking out over the beach from the inside of the base, you can see the new base under construction.

Shaped like an inverted water cup, around it is a scene in full swing, the fully mechanized engineering team controls one machine after another to carry out the operation, like ants moving, steel columns and other components, one after another are sent to the new base, and then quickly installed by the workers on the main structure of the base.

In the past two months, a large number of engineers have worked day and night, and the machines have only stopped for a few days to rest, so the progress of the new base is surprisingly fast, and it is not much slower than the original dome base.

Keep in mind that the Dome Base is much smaller than the new base.

If you look in other directions, you will see the construction site.

The construction of dormitory buildings and various supporting facilities is also not slow, and many of the buildings are now completed and ventilated.

These are the merits of the engineering team, Chen Shen did not ask the number of the engineering team, but it is estimated that there are at least twenty or thirty thousand people.

Thanks to this, the stationing of research teams and technical teams has been put on the agenda.

Descending to the first floor of the base, I heard a cheer before I had gone far.

It came from inside the cabin of a firefighting mech.

"What's wrong?" Chen Shen opened the cabin door with his authority, and was attracted by the mecha inside at a glance.

I saw that the four legs of the mecha were spread apart like spiders, and the two huge mechanical arms on the upper body, like gibbons, almost hung to the ground.

In the middle of the four thighs of the mecha, a huge circular support column went straight to the ground from the upper body, relieving the support pressure of the four spider legs.

The circular support column is at least a meter in diameter, and on all four sides of the column body, there are four neat rows of hooks protruding, and many metal columns are installed on it, forming four ladders that can be used by four people to get up and down at once.

The upper body of the mecha has a special adjustable size connector added to the back, which should be used to install the water pipe he mentioned last time.

"This is your transformed firefighting mech?" Chen Shen asked.

"How's it going?" Xu Ming walked over with a smile.

"Now this mecha has been installed with a fire protection system, it is a real prototype, and it can be tested for fire extinguishing."

Other researchers and professors also came over and wanted to hear Chen's evaluation.

Chen Shen found out that the outer layer of the mecha had been painted black, and the installation of the fireproof layer had been completed, and what was exposed on the surface was no longer alloy, so he proposed: "There is nothing wrong with it on the surface, why don't you let the mecha go?" ”

Xu Ming smiled: "Haha, as I thought, the driver is already on his way, and this time he shouldn't drop the chain like last time." ”

"Then let's take a look inside the cockpit."

"Okay."

Xu Ming walked towards the support pillar at the bottom of the mecha and climbed up without saying a word, while Chen Shen walked to the ladder on the other side and climbed up.

Other researchers also climbed up one after another, and some professors were old and weak, and after Xu Ming came up, he pressed a button in the mecha, and an elevator device in the cockpit was lowered.

Xu Ming explained: "This is the size of our design for fire rescue, the size is a 2*1 rectangle, at least able to accommodate four or five people, even if it is sent lying down." ”

Chen Shen nodded, this is indeed quite useful.

The elevator brought the rest of the people up a few times.

The cockpit area is not small, and the experience inside is much better than that of the Boxer.

The functional structure of this mecha is simple, and the structure has been optimized when designing, and the layout of various equipment has been strived to be the best.

Therefore, the space left for the cockpit is much larger than that of the Boxer, and the structural layout of this cockpit is equally exquisite.

Transparent windows on three sides provide excellent views, and on the wall behind them, there are nine mount seats, as well as three miniature bondage beds.

It was used to carry other firefighters as well as fire rescue targets.

Chen Shen couldn't help but admire: "This layout design is very good, it's even better than the boxer." ”

The other professors just smiled, and someone said, "This is not comparable, the structural design of the boxer can be spherical, how can this mecha not be turned into a ball." ”

Xu Ming nodded in agreement on the side, he knew that the structural layout of the boxer was designed for its transformation, and this firefighting mecha did not have those needs, as long as it was reliable and practical.

The design requirements of the two mechs are different, and there is no way to compare them.

Everyone was still in the cockpit, and the driver was already here.

Like the last test, this time it was the boss of the Zhou family triplets who came over, and he was the person who was most familiar with this firefighting mecha.

"The test site is ready, come with me in a mech." After the boss of the Zhou family got on the plane, Xu Ming guided him out of the mecha cabin.

Originally, Chen Shen also wanted to sit on the mount in the cockpit and experience this mecha from the first angle.

However, Xu Ming and the others all forcibly dragged him down on the grounds of danger.

Boom!

The mecha hatch continued to open, and the boss of the Zhou family took a step forward to test the mecha's pace.

Compared with the last time, the operation experience this time is much better, and a special shock-absorbing design is used on the driver's seat to ensure the smoothness of the driver.

The firefighting mech slowly stepped out of the cockpit, and the loud noise quickly caught the attention of the others.

The people on the upper floors of the base stuck their heads out.

"Is that a new mech?"

"It looks a little different."

"I heard it's a firefighting mecha."

"I'll always love the Boxer!" Some even shouted passionately.

Young faces huddled behind the windows, some with drinks and melon seeds in their hands, apparently preparing to eat melons.

The leadership of the various laboratories did not intend to stop them, and it would be good to relieve the pressure of these young people.

The test site was in an open field not far away.

It is piled with dirt dug up when the foundation and other buildings were dug up, forming irregularly shaped hills.

There were three other fire trucks next to them, all of which were drawn from nearby, and the three firefighters who drove over were looking at the fire mecha slowly walking towards them in amazement.

Bang!

Every time the mecha stepped on the dirt, it was as shocking as a war drum.

"What's that? Mecha? ”

They looked at each other, didn't their superiors ask them to come here to assist in the fire extinguishing test? How could a mecha suddenly run out?

The huge mecha slowly stopped in front of the three firefighters, all of whom had not yet recovered their senses.

It wasn't until someone came up and reminded them to take out the hose that the fire truck had previously modified that they remembered their mission here.

That's not right!

What does fire extinguishing have to do with mechs?
