Volume 3 The Underworld Chapter 69 Ghost Thorn Battle Armor
The crystal structure and extremely high hardness of titanium-sapphire are destined to be processed by water mills.
The most simple and easy-to-use laser cutting techniques cannot be applied to gemstone cutting, only the classic abrasive cutting method.
Fortunately, HELLA has already mined a lot of diamond resources before, and it has the corresponding diamond abrasive reserves, whether it is wire cutting, saw cutting, or subsequent gemstone polishing.
Once Hela had optimized the cut of the sapphire, it was immediately sent to the Sirius' machining centre to begin processing.
The processing plant inside the outpost and the other equipment in the Sirius were quickly modified and adjusted by Hella, and it really applied every bolt to the limit, began to process the various gems that were shipped later, and dismantled many of the robot's optical components.
These are the corresponding components for the manufacture of high-power laser pulsed guns.
Due to Roselle's requirements, this laser cannon needs to be transported underground to carry out tunnel melt-through work, which means that it is to be used in continuous high-energy pulse mode, so an efficient heat dissipation system is essential.
Otherwise, the laser cannon may directly cause the titanium sapphire exciter to be heated or even melted during the working process.
Because of the existence of the active cooling system, it will bring additional volume to the overall component of the laser cannon, so Xiaohela should consider the volume of the laser cannon.
Given the size of the crack tunnel, the volume of the laser cannon produced should be able to be transported in the underground tunnel, and there should also be enough space for the melt to be transported.
The transportation route of the underground maze should also be optimized accordingly.
In order to meet the energy supply demand of the laser cannon, Kidla also has to produce longer power supply cables and a large number of relay stations.
The estimated scale of the project includes 50 kilometers of elegant power supply cables and dozens of power relay stations.
The production demand for these electrical equipment is not high, and the existing processing capacity of Little Hella is sufficient to manufacture it.
However, due to the limited production capacity, the completion of all production is destined to be an extremely long process, and the estimated planning time is about three standard months.
"Ahh Sister Roselle, I can complete the laser cannon body when it is 147 standards, but the production of supporting facilities still needs three standard months. ”
"So, Sister Luoshen, let your carrier help mine first!"
There is no way, for this kind of hard production capacity problem, all Roselle can do is wait.
The next signal to the carrier is to help Little Hella mine the resources currently needed in the Underworld.
A large number of equipment and robots in the GA01 mine were left to assist the two spider mechs in their work, and they began to return to the working mine as planned, and were once again engaged in large-scale mining operations.
In the following days, Roselle and Little Hella were busy with only one thing.
Mining, mining, mining day and night.
During this period, Hella used the existing gemstone resources to make higher-grade waterjet gemstone nozzles, and also transported large quantities of natural abrasives from the weathered surface from afar.
Several waterjet cutters, more powerful than those on the Sirius machining center, were put into operation, and the outpost was enriched with machining methods.
And the manufacture of the laser cannon has long been completed, and it was loaded on the Sirius in advance by Little Hela, and several test launches have been carried out.
As for the power effect, it's a bit of a surprise.
"Sister Luoshen, the current surface atmosphere is too dense, and the effective range of the laser cannon has been reduced too much."
Little Hela prepares to use the laser cannon to play some more remote mining operations, but finds that the emitted laser pulses lose a lot of energy during the trajectory due to the presence of thick gas molecules in the atmosphere.
The best positive is the glare of the gas molecules in the excited state on the pulse trajectory because the gas molecules are charged by high-energy lasers, and the dazzling light formed by the escape electrons of the gas molecules is the best front.
These ballistic trajectories are good-looking, but at the same time they mean that the energy carried by the laser pulses is lost.
The farther the distance, the greater the loss.
At a distance of more than 30 kilometers, the laser cannon is basically unable to cause effective damage, and the actual range is too different from the laser cannon in space combat.
A good shipborne high-energy laser cannon turned out to be unable to hit the target remotely, so it had no choice but to turn into a glow stick in the hand of Little Hela, which was used to light up the night sky when he was fine.
But little Helardo is smart, she shoots the sky in the dark of night, and stumbles upon a pulsed beam that can effectively disperse those floating white clouds.
As a result, a form of entertainment called playing clouds appeared in Little Hela's life, but it was a bit expensive to play.
"Little Hela! Don't play Hit the Clouds anymore! Look! You've been hitting the clouds with laser cannons for the past two nights, consuming two full barrels of fusion raw materials, two barrels! ”
Luo Shen is not angry, who knew that this bear child actually used a laser cannon as a large laser pointer, although the two do have a lot in common.
It's just that the power consumption of this large laser pointer is really large.
However, in the past two nights, Roselle was busy with deep learning and updating his AI program, and he was caught by the empty bear child Hela who consumed two barrels of fusion raw materials.
And little Hella also did tricks on the storage data sheet, wanting to hide the past.
If it weren't for Roselle, who had already taken over the supreme authority of Sirius, and had a super fake data analysis function, he would have pulled out Xiao Hela through the clues that the storage data table had been altered, and I am afraid that he would really be kept in the bones.
"Oh, Sister Luoshen, don't be angry, I just tried the power of the laser cannon, I didn't pay attention to it for a while, sister, don't be angry, don't we still have several barrels, rest assured, it's enough to support the manufacturing of relevant ionic fuel production equipment."
Little Hela stuck out her tongue and began to play coquettish with Sister Roselle.
She really got away with it, and in order to combat the high-rise clouds, she unconsciously used the full power of the laser cannon, and directly filled the power output of the fusion furnace.
Therefore, after discovering that two full barrels of helium-3 were consumed, he knew that something was wrong, so he wanted to make up for it and secretly modified the storage data.
It's just that I didn't expect Sister Luoshen's eyes to be so vicious, so I pulled her out at once and caught her first.
Xiao Hela, who knew that she was at a loss, had no other way but to play helpless tactics, hoping that Sister Luo Shen could spare her this time.
"Oh, Sister Luoshen, Su Zhao's brain repair work is about to be completed, and his brain activity level has begun to improve, you can go and take a look."
"Well, there seems to be a bit of a problem with the vacuum measure of the laser cannon, a small number of gas molecules have been detected inside, and I have to repair it! Roselle"
After saying that, little Hela quickly cut off the projection and disappeared on the bridge.
After a while, there was another explosion in the air outside the Sirius, and it must have been Hela's daily electromagnetic cannon mining activities again.
"This kid, forget it, Su Zhao is about to wake up, I have to preside over the operation of the virtual dream again."
Later, Luo Shen also went offline from the bridge, and the main computing power was reinvested in Su Zhao's dream world computing.
……
"Arrived at the target sector, start crew wake up procedure......"
No. 12 wakes up in a state of confusion, his sluggish brain not yet capable of processing information, his eyes glazed over, and his eyes staring blankly at the ceiling in front of him.
The flat metal ceiling is lit only by a few lights, and many machines run back and forth through the tracks, scanning people.
One of them went to the 12-year-old hibernation pod and used a laser to scan his face.
This is to carry out real-time personnel data entry and update the face recognition data of their recruits for future management.
"Oops, this time the absence of dormancy is a bit long, and it will take time for Su Zhao to adapt to the new brain tissue."
"Forget about giving him a revival agent, just make a new plant extract, try the effect."
Luo Shen then summoned the robot and injected the extraction revival agent made from the aromatic hydrocarbon molecules secreted by Evergreen into the dormant chamber and released it into Su Zhao's brain.
Huo, this time the 12th was in good spirits, and finally turned around and noticed the constantly beating prompt on the dormant hatch.
"The effect of this military awakening agent is a bit fierce! It's only been less than a minute before I'm sober, and sure enough, the product produced by the army must be a high-quality product. ”
"I'll see where it is."
According to the system, the armed transports carrying the Apostle Company have now arrived at a Warframe base in the rear of the war zone, and for reasons of secrecy, they can only see the base code and the next mission prompt.
"According to your combat data, the system provides the following Apostle improvement models, please choose."
Then, two holograms with a slightly different style from the basic model of the Apostle Warframe used for training appeared in T12's line of sight.
A model STG-LM012 civet cat, the overall line is different from the basic model's stiffness, smooth and smart, and the fuselage appears slender and elegant.
Holding two double-edged swords that are slightly shorter than the basic chopping knife, they also have the ability to cut particles, and the presence of the tip of the sword enhances the piercing function.
This was followed by a demonstration of the civet cat, in which the armor armed with two short swords dodged attacks in the midst of enemy forces with its perverted maneuverability, reaping the lives of the enemy like a ghost.
Cut down as a whole, the civet type should have done a lot of weight reduction and fuselage optimization to obtain stronger mobility and enhanced melee ability with dual blades.
It's just that it's obviously not suitable for solo combat, and it needs squad support to play the corresponding function.
The defense is also weak, with only the folding arm shield and body armor as physical defense.
The other model is different, STG-KZ045 fights wildly, with rough and tough lines, and extremely thick body armor.
Specially strengthened muscles and a hydro-torque power system give the Berserk its metamorphosis powers, and the weapons used include a dual-hand blasting axe and a dual-wielding chopper.
The overall appearance is more than one size larger than the civet, like a powerful heavy berserker, which fits the name very well.
Relying on excellent defense capabilities, the battlefield survivability is extremely strong, but the high quality makes it easy for the leg impact joints to reach the force limit, and it is very likely that they cannot be used on high-gravity planets.
What both have in common is that they charge into battle, extreme melee output, and long-range firepower is only the standard ones, and the difference is in mobility and quality.
No. 12 was very satisfied with both models, and faced with the dilemma of choosing one of the two.
Fortunately, the system also knows that the application scenarios of the two are different, and intimately gives that this is only the battle armor used in the current training, and the follow-up mission will give the driver the opportunity to change to the battle armor according to the mission details.
Therefore, the battle armor with such a mighty and infinite power, strong defense and strong survivability naturally made No. 12 make a choice.
"I choose civet! No way, the civet cat is so handsome, and the feeling of a sword-tip martial artist is too cool. ”
Attracted by the elegant and handsome appearance of the civet cat, 12 did not hesitate to make his choice.
"The pilot selection has been completed, the crew number OJSST41E12 has been read, and the STG-LM012 Warframe information has been entered."
"Please follow the navigation to the Warframe Preparation Room."
After the system gave a hint and confirmed that 12's status was completely normal, he opened the electronic safety lock of the dormant compartment and released him to collect the armor.
"Chouts! I'm coming! Let me love you so much! ”
12, who looked like an idiot, was impatient and disappeared into the dormant cabin with a puff of smoke.
I also didn't notice that during this time, no other teammates left the dormant chamber.
