Volume 1 Chapter 59 Horse Rider
12:00 on January 17, 438 A.D
Ergou started the mecha, moved his fists and kicks, reacted quickly and quickly, punched fast, and easily tore the surrounding air.
Due to the addition of a lot of new equipment, the overall tonnage of the X-3 is nearly a ton heavier than that of the X-1 mech, and at this time, there is no sense of lag in the action, but more sensitive.
The fit between the mecha and the body of the two dogs is also more comfortable and more ergonomic.
In front of everyone's eyes, the second mecha dog walked to the crawler site, stepped on it directly, and the self-locking mechanism automatically locked, and the docking was easily completed.
The second dog equipped with the mecha is just two meters high, and at this time, after docking the track hole card, the height is increased by 40 centimeters.
The use of the crawler propulsion system undoubtedly gives the power chassis good passability, jungles, grasslands, swamps, deserts, ice and even water surfaces, all of which are like walking on the ground, especially to adapt to the ice and snow world of the current external environment.
The rising Ergou directly started the power chassis, drove out of the research room, and went to the long tunnel of the underground base.
The spacious, straight concrete road is a good test site, and the chassis accelerates quickly, with plenty of power reserves, and the speed is not comparable to that of the previous snowmobile.
Since the power mecha is currently only equipped with a quad-core fusion core, if two more are installed, Ergou even thinks that the speed can reach four hundred per hour, of course, it needs perfect road conditions.
The X-3 mecha worn by Ergou can only be regarded as a heavy power armored exoskeleton in the strict sense, and it can be said that it is the smallest category in the mecha family.
The protection that can really be provided to Ergou is limited, and the comprehensive protection performance is at most comparable to the heavy infantry chariots in today's world.
At speeds of more than 120 kilometers per hour, in the event of an impact accident, it is also quite dangerous for the members of the mecha to be able to use auxiliary protection equipment such as airbags.
At this time, the X-3 mecha stepping on the tracked power turf was like a wild horse, and the passionate experience brought by speed intoxicated Ergou, who circled and circled in the underground tunnel, sometimes accelerating, and twelve sharp decelerations back and forth.
Thinking of what Anna said that there is no seat, you can use the joint lock function of the mecha, Ergou tried it, and the process is probably that the mecha enters the horse step posture and locks the knee joint of the mecha.
Sure enough, it's very comfortable, and it's no different from sitting in a mecha.
Just looking at the mecha's marching posture from the outside was a little strange, so much so that later this strange marching posture brought Ergou a name "Horse Rider" on the rivers and lakes.
Yes, the power mech activated the knee locks and crouched on two tracked turf traveling at high speeds.
From a distance, it looks like a man squatting and skating, and the sight can be said to be quite comical.
Since then, Ergou has also experienced the combination mode of each power module.
The second dog wears a mecha foot on the crawler chassis, acting as the front of the car, and the mecha leans on the waist with two mechanical arms, connecting to other module chassis, and the combination can be freely selected, depending on the needs of the task.
Even when all the modules are combined, they are very dexterous to handle.
"Anna's set of things, with wings on it, can fly at any time." Ergou said heartily.
The only problem is that after the whole system is combined, Ergou feels like a horse pulling a cart in front, and Anna sits high up in the back like a princess.
Ergou is very helpless about Anna's bad taste, he just wants a normal motorcycle driving posture, even if it is okay, so that he will not look as stupid as he is now.
But for Ergou's request, Anna gave enough reasons to refuse, the useless structure consumes system resources, and under the existing mode, Ergou can enter the combat posture more quickly.
The people who watched the test also covered their mouths and snickered, and the heroic and handsome X-3 mecha became a horse rider at this time, with a combination of carriage and princess.
Haha is so funny, many people who were present to watch the test couldn't help but laugh and choke back their internal injuries.
Soon the test was almost over, and it was time for lunch at noon, and the working meal was carried out directly in the laboratory.
Everyone has a lot of work on hand, and the time is also squeezed out for use, otherwise these equipment of the second dog cannot be completed in such a short time, someone sent lunch, simple grilled fish sandwiches, juice and milk, everyone gathered around to eat, and was still discussing the work enthusiastically.
"Rocket module, integrated smoke rockets, right? I wonder why not equip my mech with a shield? There is also a dense array made with a six-barreled cannon, which can be defended and attacked! ”
Ergou was eating a sandwich and still making requests, he had no memory, but he still had a lot of his own understanding of combat.
"Time is really limited, these are improvised gadgets, and in fact your combat support vehicle, at best, is a front, and its final form is far from complete.
At present, there are eight modules and 32 power, and it has cost nearly twenty nuclear fusion cores, and our ultimate goal is to integrate all the towing mission vehicles needed for combat after completion, and of course your shield proposal is good. After the meal, I worked overtime to make a simple! ”
Zuo Wei is obviously the chief planner of this project, and explains while holding a drink to Ergou on the side.
"There are also a lot of modules I'm working on, such as the full defense module, which can surround you in the middle when it's completed.
If you can recover the fifteen affiliated bases, there are electromagnetic cannons over there!
Can you imagine? That would be a real super-force, a traditional weapon terminator, a weapon to dominate small-scale battles, of course I'm talking about the pre-war, and the current situation is up for debate. ”
Old man Kalash, drinking a little wine, talking about the electromagnetic cannon of the fifteenth base.
"With such a powerful power chassis support, you can tow any number of non-powered modules, and you can add whatever you want to transport, and a whole train is no problem.
I've prepared some functional potions for you, of course, most of your perfect genes can't be used, and your guards can use them.
Orange in a short period of time, it can greatly improve the five senses, sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch
T potion blue, improve energy concentration in a short time
N medicine is colorless, and quickly replenishes physical strength
K. The agent is golden, which greatly improves the anti-toxicity and anti-radiation
J potion is red, used to save lives when seriously injured, which is also what Zuo Wei strongly asks you to equip
Various types of medicines, limited functions, fortunately, there are no toxic side effects, of course, you should pay attention to rest after use.
There are also some meal replacement nutrition capsules, which can completely replace food and nutrition in a few days, and can fully keep up with the huge consumption of soldiers' physical strength in war situations.
These functional potions are integrated into the power mech, including the newly acquired mech of your guard.
It can be used actively before the war, and in an emergency, the beep bracelet will automatically inject mecha members. ”
King Stan said as he ate it, the fish sandwich was very fresh, and he loved it.
"Hey! Actually, I originally just wanted to occupy this planet, but he didn't allow it! Now with your support, I'm thinking about taking over the universe, haha! ”
Ergou got carried away and bragged about the cowhide, apparently he had forgotten the night he was chased and cried by the monster.
"I don't know if you have noticed, Anna's cockpit can carry three people, I'll introduce you to two people first, knives and swords!"
Director Zhang Haijun, who had been smiling and silent, spoke.
"Hello, Mr. Ergou!"
came over to say hello, it was two Asian faces that looked exactly the same, looked like Anna, not much taller, both wearing black base general uniforms, cold and expressionless faces, straight bodies, and the overall temperament was cold, giving people the illusion that they were two sharp weapons.
In fact, everyone was eating before, but the two brothers stood straight next to them motionless.
Ergou had noticed them a long time ago, but out of politeness, he was too embarrassed to ask more.
At this time, Director Zhang Haijun introduced, and he reacted, could it be that they are synthetics like Anna?
"Hello? Knives, sword brothers, right? It's really as good as its name! ”
Ergou greeted politely, because Anna was beside him, and he didn't say the question in his heart.
"Knives, swords, are bionic combat robots made in our base with excellent melee combat capabilities.
The artificial brain has powerful computing power, which is equivalent to twice the highest-level beep bracelet in the current base.
In terms of limb structure, in addition to the bionic skin and appearance features, the internal skeletal instruments are all made of high-strength metal.
They were originally developed to carry out the personal security mission of important people of the state, and of course now that the Osbu Empire is dead.
Brother, you have been fighting outside for a long time, and there are many dangers, and the sword will follow you and protect you in the future.
My Anna is a complete life, and her physiology and psychology are irreproducible. They are fundamentally different, and the two dog brothers should not be confused. ”
As if he saw Ergou's thoughts, Director Zhang Haijun said directly.
"Dad, I'm still around, you just talk about me, just say I'm a machine!" Anna was furious.
"This support is too heavy, how can I repay your trust?"
Ergou is very moved, can you not be moved, people have said that they are important people to protect the country, this time they will send two robots to themselves, how important is the identity of Ergou?
"It's too dangerous for you to go on a mission out there, and we can only do the logistics for you at the moment.
Yu Private, you are my son-in-law, and I will treat you wholeheartedly.
Yu Gong is all for the base, for the sake of the people of Oschui, and even for the sake of all mankind.
Let's all cheer up, I propose that we have a toast! ”
King Stan, holding up the juice in his hand, suggested that everyone present have a toast.
"I said old king, you take a glass of juice to deal with everyone, come on! I've got 40 years of ageing. ”
As he spoke, the old man Kalash on the side really took out the liquor from his arms.
"You old guy, why don't you drink to death, drink during working hours, you have this privilege in the whole base, and the reward I get for opening up to you is that you openly corrupt and win over the leader?"
King Stan was not happy, not because he didn't like to drink, but because Kalash's wine was too strong.
"Hahaha~ Cheers! Yes! ”
Everyone laughed and raised their drink glasses to drink, and under the leadership of King Stan, the atmosphere of the entire joint laboratory was warm.
