Chapter 134: Test Drive

Ling Xue was also puzzled before, his father had always thought highly of himself, why he was suddenly a high mercenary, when he saw Jem's angry appearance and Chen Fang's bitter gourd face, he finally realized the mystery and almost laughed.

Jem has been to the Lu family, is one of the few officers that his father brought home, must be very important, although this person is not a strong opponent now, but he is young and promising, and his future achievements are limitless.

Young people are inevitably vigorous, and the most effective way to stimulate the fighting spirit of young people is to give him an opponent, Lu Beiyan is obviously a master of this way, and he lit a fire to Jem in a few words, if it wasn't for Chen Fang to avoid it in time after noticing, I am afraid that the two of them will be able to face each other on the spot.

"Let's go to the camp and have a look." Lu Beiyan may think that the time has not yet come, and temporarily give up provoking, since it is a special mecha unit, physical fitness cannot explain the problem after all.

Chen Fang also learned well, and resolutely didn't say anything that harmed the harmony, he really couldn't hold it, first praise the Black Dragon Legion, even if he belittled the mercenary, anyway, the mercenary didn't have much sense of honor.

Despite the sudden visit, the legion still organized a simple but grand welcome ceremony, this is because Lu Beiyan does not like formalized things, as his subordinates, he naturally does not dare to make a mistake, even so, Lu Lingfeng is still very uncomfortable, a little submissive.

Chen Fang is okay, enjoying everything silently, no wonder soldiers like to be generals, in the army, generals are god-like existences, not to mention that the father-in-law is a marshal.

The on-board training of the Black Dragon Legion focused on actual combat, which was Chen Fang's first feeling when he entered the camp. As a veteran mercenary, he immediately saw that the two mechs he was fighting were fighting without restrictions, rather than a step-by-step combat training.

Mechists' actual combat training is certainly more effective than virtual confrontations. The price is also staggering. If the huge Black Dragon Legion were to adopt actual combat training, the consumption of crystal oil would be astronomical. And that's not even counting the damage to the mech, but also the most headache of all.

Although Chen Fang is not very clear about the system of the emperor's ** team. But he also knew that the compensation for sacrificing a mech master was definitely higher than the value of the mecha he piloted, at least ten times more. This is still in the case of training, if it is wartime, the compensation is even more ridiculously high, and there is a national flag cover for sacrificing one's life for the country, and as for the mercenaries, there will not even be a person to collect the corpse.

To know. Mercenaries make money from performing tasks, which is distressing for the cost of crystal oil, regular military training does not produce profits, and all rely on the financial allocation of the military department, these rabbit cubs do not deserve sympathy, they are already very happy.

"Boy, what do you think?" Lu Beiyan never mentioned the word son-in-law, and asked with ulterior motives.

"It's very powerful, the Black Dragon Legion of the Empire is worthy of its reputation, no wonder it can make the opponent fearful." Chen Fang replied against his will. This can't be blamed for extravagance, most armies are like this, and they can only complain about the misery of mercenaries.

Then again, if they weren't cornered, who would want to join a mercenary? The mercenaries are desperate villains, and even killing people is a kind of capital. Thinking about it carefully, in addition to Linnie, I'm afraid that the net worth of Thunderbolt Bee and Fire Bull is not innocent, and Anson, it may be because everyone's background is not innocent that there is this unwritten rule in the mercenary world, not asking others about their previous experiences.

"You don't seem to be sincere." Lu Beiyan was a little dissatisfied with his son-in-law's slippery head.

"Absolutely heartfelt." Chen Fang nodded very affirmatively, and then, he ushered in a few disdainful glances, even if he couldn't tell whether this was true or false, he could clearly hear the meaning of flattery, and it was a little outrageous, especially in the Black Dragon Legion, flattery is a strictly prohibited behavior, vainly trying to curry favor with his superiors in this way, and he can only get severe punishment.

Lu Beiyan didn't have much interest in combat training, but instead noticed a row of mecha lying on the ground neatly in the corner of the wall.

"This is the new special mecha that arrived last month?" Lu Beiyan walked over.

"Yes." Jem replied in a sonorous voice, and as his gaze swept over the pile of mechs, he did not hide his disgust, as if he were looking at a pile of garbage.

"Why don't you put it into storage?" Lu Beiyan asked unhappily.

"At the moment, the warehouse is tight, and there is no room to make room." Jem said insincerely, if he had this right, he would immediately throw this pile of garbage out.

"Nonsense! What does it mean to be out of place? The storeroom is for storing mechas, and if you can't fit it, you should build a new storeroom, and you know that these mechs are Dr. Townsend's masterpieces, and they are worth a lot of money, and they were thrown out by you. When it came to military affairs, Lu Beiyan's face changed as soon as he said it, and he was furious in an instant.

"The subordinates remember that the marshal said that the mecha is a weapon of battle, not a handicraft, no matter who designed it, what is not good is garbage, these mechas are not good at performance, they can't stand without the help of a bracket, the space in the warehouse is limited, and the space for storing such a mecha is enough to store five other mechas, so put them outside." Jem replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Oh, I don't believe that Dr. Townsend designed the mech for nothing, he's not a man in vain." Lu Beiyan thought for a moment and said.

"My subordinates heard that the design of these mechas

It's not Dr. Townsend, but a student of the Imperial Academy, Dr. Townsend is only good, a hairy boy, he hasn't even tried mecha fighting, he can design any good goods with his theoretical knowledge, and he also has a brain-dead name, what kind of skullsplitter, and he is not afraid of embarrassment. Jem was indignant and told what he had heard.

Lu Lingxue couldn't help but chuckle, isn't the skull splitter Chen Fang's masterpiece? This mecha almost made her suffer a big loss, she didn't expect it to be popularized in the army so quickly, and she was given a cold reception.

Although she knew that the skull splitter was not weak, but when she heard that Jem was useless in this mecha, she still couldn't help but laugh, sample, don't you like to pretend? Now that you're being scolded as brain-dead, see how long you can pretend?

Perhaps, Lu Lingxue didn't want to see her fiancé make a fool of herself, she just hoped that Chen Fang could stand up and show Jem and the Black Dragon Legion that the skull splitter was not garbage, and at the same time, it was also to prove to the Black Dragon Legion that he was a strong man. Chen Fang has this strength. Even the Black Dragon Legion is by no means weak.

However, Chen Fang's performance was disappointing, he just looked at the skull-splitters piled up in the corner of the wall, and then looked away, as if those mechs had nothing to do with him. Jem's provocation fell on deaf ears.

Ever since I followed my father-in-law on the road. Chen Fang was always listless, no different from when he was in the rescue team. It's not that he doesn't like challenges, he just doesn't have the right opponent. He wants to challenge characters like Aturu and Baiza, and he must at least have the strength of a fifth-order mercenary, but at present, he can't find a place to challenge, mercenaries are not like ordinary soldiers, they maintain a strong fighting spirit at any time, and mercenaries are like wolves. The wolf is this virtuous before it finds its prey, lazy and listless.

Lu Beiyan didn't know the reason for this, first glared at his daughter, and then explained: "I see, but you still find someone to test drive, and if you can be favored and perfected by Dr. Townsend, this mecha must have merit." Don't do it soon, just do it now. Let me see if this mech is useless, if it's as bad as you say. When I went back, I threw them back to the military headquarters. ”

Jem hurriedly chimed in: "That's what my subordinates mean. ”

As an original machine, the Skullsplitter has been perfected by Dr. Townsend beyond recognition, and the mecha no longer has the patchwork feeling of Frankenstein, and the whole tends to be harmonious, showing an abruptly streamlined shape.

The improved Skullsplitter retains the concept of emphasizing attack, and the fuselage is still exaggerated and leans forward, even more pronounced than the prototype, so without the support of the bracket, it can only lie on its stomach, probably out of the consideration of simplicity, and the entrance to the cockpit is also open on the back of the mech.

Overall, the Skullsplitter has become more beautiful, the modules are more harmonious, and the sense of emphasizing attack is more obvious, which is equivalent to the restricted-level mecha used by second-order mercenaries, and its configuration is more than one level higher than its predecessor.

However, Lu Lingxue, who had personally experienced the prototype of the Skullsplitter, believed that the perfected Skullsplitter was not as good as before, and had lost the terrifying feeling of discordant ugliness.

Dr. Townsend only noticed the aggression, but ignored the impact of the appearance.

Two experienced soldiers were brought in for a test drive, the so-called test drive is still actual combat, one side is driving the LM Wasp mecha commonly used by the Black Dragon Legion, and the other side is driving the skull splitter, the rules of actual combat are that there are no rules, let go of the fight. The soldiers in the training camp also stopped training and came to observe, Lu Beiyan never missed any opportunity to sharpen the army, and the opportunity to learn from the mercenaries was even more rare, how could he let it go?

After ten minutes of adjustment, the actual battle began.

The soldier who piloted the Skullsplitter knew this mecha well, and he was the first to launch a rush attack at the beginning, and it is undeniable that the Skullsplitter had excellent performance in attacking, and as soon as he took over, he immediately won an overwhelming advantage.

Although the wasp retreated, it was not chaotic, as a mecha with both offense and defense, the wasp could not bargain for a simple attack with the skullsplitter, but its double blades could easily block the skullspliter's attack, he was waiting for the opportunity.

Within two minutes, the two mechs were inseparable, but Chen Fang decided the winner in his heart, and he couldn't use a strong attack to shatter the wasp's defense, and the skull splitter lost.

"What do you think?" Lu Beiyan asked his son, who was nervously concerned about the battle situation.

"I feel that the chances of the skullsplitter are slim, this mecha has too many flaws, unless he can keep attacking, he will be defeated immediately, when he encounters this kind of opponent, I will wait for work, the strong attack is difficult to last, and when the opponent is unsustainable, I will give him a fatal blow." Lu Lingfeng said seriously.

Lu Beiyan nodded, indicating that he was quite satisfied, but his eyes revealed that this satisfaction was very limited.

"Tell me about it." Lu Beiyan then found his daughter.

"The outcome of this battle is obvious, but that's not the case when the Skullsplitter attacks." Lu Lingxue's answer aroused the curiosity of several people around her, and the most obvious expression was Jem.

"Oh, tell me what it does attack?" Lu Beiyan asked with a smile, during the conversation, the skull-splitter had already been defeated, the short knife tore through the armor, deeply embedded in the shoulder blade of the mecha, and the loss was very ugly.

"Daughter

Chu, if my father wants to know, it is better to let him try. Lu Ling Xueshun

"If you were to drive the Skullsplitter, what were your chances of winning?" The same problem has now found Chen Fang.

"The odds?" Chen Fang thought for a moment and smiled helplessly. The Black Dragon Legion is indeed the land of the Hidden Dragon and the Crouching Tiger, but the two high-ranking soldiers who were transferred for a test drive are definitely not masters, as fourth-order mercenaries. Chen Fang can easily win no matter what mecha he uses, and his father-in-law, as one of the five generalissimos of the Aojia Empire, should know very well that it is incomprehensible to say this.

"Haven't asked for the identity of this brother yet?" Jem immediately jumped at the chance.

"I'm the brain-dead person you said." Chen Fang thought for a moment. For now. This status could not be more suitable.

"It turns out that this skullsplitter was designed by you, disrespectful." There was no respect in Jemdi's eyes. The superficial compliment is purely to give the marshal ground.

"Haha, I didn't think you were the designer of the Skullsplitter. I still asked back and forth, but it turned out that I asked the wrong person. Just right, I'll let you try it in the next one. Lu Beiyan's eyes were full of surprise.

The father-in-law may have the intention to let himself be in the limelight, after all, his old man's son-in-law must not be weak, the army is a place to believe in strength, not to mention that he already has the capital that allows him to show off, but Chen Fang is more willing to believe it. He was going to use himself to sharpen the officer named Jem, and in any case, Chen Fang got into the mecha.

Chen Fang chose the mecha that he had just lost, although he was stabbed in the shoulder blade, but he did not penetrate the armor layer, in other words, the mecha did not suffer heavy damage, and the loss was a mecha division, not a mecha, if it was replaced by Baiza's kind of role. This kind of damage is not worth mentioning at all.

In order to cater to the intention of the attack, he pretended to have heavy armor in the front of the mecha, but the internal space of the cockpit was not crowded, and the exoscopes on the side and rear were exactly the places where he felt awkward when he piloted the skull splitter last time, although it was a mecha that could not be retreated, it did not mean that the mecha master did not need to see behind him.

At the beginning of the game, the opponent was still the superior soldier who had just won.

Chen Fang skillfully fiddled with the data board, and after deftly entering a command, the skull-splitter frantically slammed into the opponent, the upper body of the mecha could not be lowered, like the wild beast's wild run, but the short knife was hidden behind the back, and everyone had a feeling that when it was close, that is, when the prey was torn apart.

"That's how you feel?" Lu Beiyan looked at his daughter with a smile, such a low position will inevitably make the opponent at a loss, the most terrible thing is that the weapon of the skull splitter is a short knife, the short knife wielded from the bottom up is the most difficult to defend, and the lower part of the mecha has almost no ability to defend.

The moment he got close, the skull splitter almost touched the ground, swung his knife, and his ugly body was exaggeratedly raised, seemingly trying his best, and the wasp's leg was cut off and swung into the air.

The skullsplitter rubbed shoulders with the prey under the inertial drag, but after rushing out of a distance of more than ten meters, he threw a short knife, and the pitch-black short knife drew a fierce arc, flipped six times and smashed accurately at the wasp.

Cha!

With a terrifying sound, the short knife was firmly embedded in the wasp's head, and the powerful force made the handle tremble.

Zhi Brain made a reimbursement without any suspense, and then the engine automatically turned off, and the one-legged wasp fell straight backwards.

The Skullsplitter turned around and stopped attacking, as if quietly admiring the tragic scene.

Boom, this mainstream mecha in active service of the Black Dragon Legion fell like garbage, not only on Lu Beiyan's face, but also on the hearts of all the soldiers of the Black Dragon Legion.

It's not shameful to lose, but it's unacceptable to lose like this, this is no longer a test drive, but a provocation, for a while, the crowd was excited, Chen Fang had long expected such a situation, and he didn't come out of the mecha at all after winning.

"Since it's a test drive, you can't win or lose in one game, and my subordinates think that it is fair to win at least two out of three games, one win and one loss, and now it is only a draw." Jem spoke to the sergeants' hearts and minds.

"It also makes sense, to verify the merits of the skull-splitter, the driver must at least be equal." Lu Beiyan is impartial, since he came to the Flame Star, it is like a different person, a marshal, he has to look like a marshal.

The opponent was replaced by a second lieutenant officer, but Chen Fang didn't even bother to look at it, if there was a target he wanted to challenge among the people present, it was the leader of the Black Dragon Legion, his father-in-law, of course, it was impossible.

When the game started again, the two mechs in the center of the field became the focus of everyone, and even the slight tremor caused by the engine start also affected everyone's hearts.

As always, the attack of the skullsplitter made everyone's hearts rise to their throats, Chen Fang very much hoped to usher in a duel with a master like Baizah, but in the Black Dragon Legion, this idea was just a luxury, all he could do was to end this farce test drive as soon as possible.

Ding, the opponent actually blocked his attack with two knives, and the light flashed in his eyes as if he was mocking.
