Chapter 52: Two Mechas

"We... How about blowing up the brain worm? ”

It was not Kai Ruigan who asked this, but Du Zhenhuan, who had not participated in the battle because he had not taken advantage of the vehicle before.

Xue Qiong gently patted Du Zhenhuan's shoulder, leaned over and lowered his voice and said, "Have you forgotten what Bai Da said?" Only the Void Spectral Energy can truly kill the Brain Worm, otherwise even if it destroys its body, it will be resurrected indefinitely... Or do you think the Federation Army is justifying itself in not dropping all the nuclear bombs when it is difficult to protect itself? ”

"What," Kerrigan's tone was a little awkward, "Actually, I'm very good at hearing now, and I can hear everything you say... Where did you get this message? Is the person who provided the information credible? ”

Xue Qiong was shocked, only then did he realize that even he had relaxed a little after the battle, and hurriedly gave Mike a look to cooperate with me before saying, "Uh... That's right, the star spirits that our ancestors came into contact with are not the ones in your common sense..."

Xue Qiong then told Kerrigan about the history of the Dark Templars in Shakuras, and asked Mike to cooperate by saying that they had already assassinated the brainworm once, and finally forcibly said that Bai Da was the name of a Dark Templar who had fought alongside them before, but was now dead, and finally fooled Kerrigan again.

To say that Kai Ruigan's patience is really good, she can still listen to Xue Qiong's tirade when she pulls out these tirades, and when Xue Qiong finally pulls the topic back, she said cautiously: "Actually, compared to the problem of these nuclear bombs, we should first think about what to do next..."

Xue Qiong didn't have any opinion on this statement, stepped on the cigarette butt, and then said: "What you said is right, and what to do next, let's talk about it after completing the search of this base." ”

Kerrigan nodded, "Well, then go back to the central control room first." ”

More than forty minutes later, Xue Qiong and Xiao Yun came to the central control room together.

Although it is said that they passed together, Xiao Yun was sprayed with blood in the previous battle, and it is definitely not okay to just rinse it with water, and the living area in this base has not been completely damaged, so taking a hot bath has become a must. And Xiao Yun was spoiled by Xue Qiong again, and at the same time, in this facility, which was originally mainly used to train GHOST, Xue Qiong finally found the tools and equipment that could take off his troublesome GHOST tights, and as a result, taking a bath became a joint wash, and if you wash together, the time consumption will definitely be much more than washing alone... Everyone understands the truth.

Fortunately, the current situation is relatively safe, and it can be supported by their lack of a sense of crisis.

After entering the central control room, the two found that Kerrigan was the only one lying in front of the computer, constantly typing on the keyboard there, and without waiting for them to say anything, Kerrigan said to himself:

"Lei Kai was transferred to the medical station by his bald head, and he is still being treated, and Nangong is also there. Your pilot, who has no mech, was arranged by me to collect supplies, and as for that Mike, he said he was going to visit the human facilities..."

Xue Qiong nodded and said I understood, after taking a shower, he still put on the GHOST tights again, after all, he was prepared. Holding Xiao Yun's hand, Xue Qiong rubbed her hair that was not yet dry, and asked behind Kai Ruigan's back, "What about the results on your side?" ”

"Wait a minute, I'm going to get the highest privileges to the database soon, wait two minutes!"

Since Kai Ruigan said so, Xue Qiong also found a chair by herself, sat and waited with peace of mind. And Xiaoyun was instructed by Xue Qiong to pour a cup of coffee for Kai Ruigan.

"That's it!" Kerrigan smiled confidently, leaned back in his chair, took a sip of coffee with his left hand, and tapped enter with his right hand.

On the big screen in front of Kerrigan, a large amount of data and information began to roll like a waterfall, and Kerrigan seemed to have a very good dynamic vision, and he could actually keep up with the speed at which this information appeared, drinking coffee while watching one by one for a long time.

Xiao Yun didn't know where to go to play, and Xue Qiong returned to Kai Ruigan and asked, "How is it?" ”

Kerrigan frowned and said, "This base seems to be more than just a ghost military academy and a biochemical research institute, at least... This thing is here?! ”

Speaking of this, Kai Ruigan suddenly put down the coffee cup, and after operating on the keyboard again, he grabbed the communicator at hand and said directly: "Du Zhenhuan, I found something that you will be very interested in, and the road map has been sent to you." ”

Xue Qiong, on the other hand, looked at the 3D structural sketches that appeared on the screen, two of them, and was silent, not knowing what she was thinking.

At least these two things have a higher level of secrecy than a nuclear bomb, so you can expect more?

Du Zhenhuan was originally walking around the base, throwing some shelf-stable food, purified water and other things into his storage space from time to time, and heard the small communicator of the federal security guard on his waist that he had taken away in the central control room ring, so after he put away the box of cured meat in his hand, he stopped and opened the latest voice message, as well as the attached file.

"Huh? Didn't I just walk through this intersection? Du Zhenhuan was a little puzzled, "There is only a wall that has nothing?" ”

In fact, Westerners do not have a fine tradition of thinking about hiding things, and if Xue Qiong had walked there before, he would have found problems. Because in the entire underground base, this level is at least five meters higher than the other floors, and the wall that has nothing is located on the outer edge of the base, which is too wide and too big...

Du Zhenhuan held the mood of "let's go over and take a look", turned around and walked over, and then opened his mouth wide.

Under Kerrigan's remote operation, the wall was completely open at this time, and the back of the wall was simple, it was a hidden warehouse, and the space was not large, one large and one small mecha covered with green dust cloths, almost filled the place.

With Du Zhenhuan's understanding of mechas, even if he couldn't see the whole picture clearly when he was covered by a cloth, he could understand in an instant that this was definitely not the Goliath-level mecha of the Tyrann Federation, but something else, just instinctively made people feel very hanging.

The communicator on his waist sounded again, Du Zhenhuan's wrist trembled and took a look, with a complex mood mixed with joy, fanaticism, surprise and expectation, etc., and quickly began to read the data that had just been transmitted.

Tylen Federation, military-affiliated research institute affiliated with the Varohn Ordnance Factory, top secret inside the first sequence: Zeus Project, Hermes Project.

Zeus-class prototype: A technical attempt to adapt to the limits of the armor, bomb load, and heavy firepower system that a single ground vehicle can carry in order to adapt to a large-scale frontal battlefield in the future. Although this proved to be unrealistic, it also provided many new ideas for future military research, so it was transferred to a secret military base for proper preservation.

The net weight of the whole aircraft is 112.76 tons, the full load combat state is 159 tons, the maximum height is 32.9 meters, and the non-combat retracted state is 23.6 meters high.

Each arm is equipped with two 720 mm guns, the four 260 mm secondary guns on the back can freely switch between anti-aircraft or flat-fire modes, and four 60 mm heavy self-rotating machine turrets are mounted on the shoulders on both sides, with a main and secondary gun ammunition load of 82 base and a cannon ammunition load of 16,300 rounds.

The main gun and secondary gun can fire standard grenades, armor-piercing shells, incendiary bombs, high-explosive shells, artillery missiles, etc., and the arms of the mecha can be rotated within 15 degrees, while the secondary gun can only be turned and aimed by the mecha.

Reasons for idleness: 1. The cost is too high to be mass-produced; Second, due to the excessive weight of the body and the insufficient support of the federal basic materials science, the strength of the suspension structure is insufficient, and finally the maneuverability is sacrificed, and even with the addition of tracks on the feet, the speed cannot exceed 20 kilometers per hour; Third, the budget is insufficient to customize a transport ship that is large enough to transport Zeus quickly; Fourth, the target is too big, and the survival rate on the battlefield is too low; 5. Attempts to miniaturize the armor energy shield failed.

Hermes-class prototype: Originally designed to deal with the assassination of the top leaders of the Republic of Yumayan and the Republic of Moria, the small and medium-sized security mecha was proposed, but in the middle of the design, Professor Debord proposed the possibility of being suitable for assassination operations and boarding operations in the space battlefield, so the original design theory was expanded, focusing on improving its mobility, concealment and battlefield adaptability.

The whole aircraft weighs 21 tons, has a maximum height of 9.31 meters, a maximum speed of 210 kilometers per hour, and uses high-energy gas power, with a maximum combat endurance of 5 hours and 15 minutes.

Originally, it was planned to use the Goliath-class general-purpose mecha chassis, but after Congress added a budget, it was changed to an independently designed chassis. The main structure of the mecha adopts a similar proportions to the human body and a bionic transmission structure, in order to reduce weight, the armor is made of the latest L-331 light alloy, and the only weapon is a 35mm machine gun mounted on the right arm, which can be replaced with a flat-fire howitzer or several special melee weapons.

Reasons for idleness: 1. The cost is too high to be mass-produced; Second, since it is impossible to guarantee its defense without sacrificing mobility, it is impossible to guarantee the survival rate on a frontal battlefield; 3. The cost performance is too low, and more than ten Goliath mecha can be manufactured at the same cost; Fourth, due to the excessive number of joints in the fuselage, it is difficult for the pilot to adapt to the new control mode, and the brainwave control system has not been developed, and the envisioned melee combat is basically impossible to achieve; 5. The endurance time in the high-load combat state is too short, not more than two hours; Sixth, the plan to load optical camouflage on the fuselage failed, and its concealment could not be compared with that of the ghost troops, and the envisaged assassination operation was difficult to achieve; 7. The body is still too large to adapt to security; 8. In order to exterminate Koha's son, Congress removed the budget halfway; Nine...

In the eyes of the Tyranid Federation, these two mechs really have endless shortcomings, so they are shelved at this time. But in Du Zhenhuan's eyes...

"Damn... Lao Tzu has been unlucky for most of his life, and he finally transferred it once!! ”
