To make it easier to illustrate and better understand Vinde, Rowling operated a terminal in the store to project a 3D hologram in the air.

These are all materials related to motorcycle-type steel partners.

"Before you get into the augmentation, you need to have some basic understanding of the Steel Partner."

She adjusted the picture to a palm-sized piece of electronic circuit and said, "This is a core module disassembled from the A2 self-propelled gun. The core module is one of the most important parts of the Iron Partner, it is equivalent to our brain and heart, and it is the key to their thinking and self-awareness. There is no doubt that it may seem inconspicuous, but it contains a lot of zero elements in it. The loss of a core module for a Steel Companion means their death – even transplanting is impossible. None of the current technological forces can do this, although there are many technologies derived from the core template. But getting a steel partner to transform and be reborn is still not much that can be done. ”

While Rowling closed the picture, she solemnly told Wende: "Although the core module is much stronger than it seems, you still have to be careful to protect your core module for your steel companion, once it is damaged, the loss will be catastrophic." ”

Rowling then transferred the image data to many models, and continued: "Because the core template cannot be transferred, it leads to another characteristic of the steel partner - its type template - we generally call it 'turf' also has a fixed characteristic. No matter how many resources you put into it, no matter how skilled a mechanic you get, you can't change its 'motorcycle' nature and make it a 'car' or a 'tank'. ”

The reason for this is still unclear, but the more reliable and accepted speculation is that the growth and awakening of the Iron Partner's self-consciousness is a long process, and this experience has made it identify with its own type of identity. It's similar to our gender identity, which leads to an instinctive resistance to other types. ”

Rowling pointed to the images and said: "Now similar ones are basically divided into six categories: motorcycles, cars, large vehicles, special vehicles, and light and heavy tanks, and there are various sub-categories under each major category. But those can be changed if done correctly. ”

She gave another example, "For example, you can make this little guy the most common two-wheeled motorcycle, or a sideways, three-wheeled motorcycle, and if you want to go alone, a four-wheeled motorcycle or even a suspension style...... Nu can almost do it with hard work. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Wende, and saw that Wende nodded and responded, "Understood." Rowling took the images and continued.

"The core template can only be strengthened, not transferred; Territory can be changed, but there are many restrictions. The above two are the two most difficult to start with the strengthening and transformation of steel partners; There's a lot we can do beyond that. ”

"We can help them strengthen their power sources so that they have more horsepower and more firepower."

"We can provide fire control templates to make them more comfortable with handling weapons."

"We can change their external monitors to make them more sensitive to every move of the outside world."

"We can make their absorbers wider and more efficient, so that they can adapt to more complex or barren environments."

"We can provide a lot of firepower components to make them stronger!"

"There are limits to how many different abilities we can have......"

“……”

Rowling said a lot, but at the end she sighed leisurely, "There is no doubt that we can do many things." Sadly, however, not all of these changes and enhancements have an optimal solution - each choice of enhanced classification has its own characteristics - so we have to be selective - not only the sub-items of the classification, but even the trade-offs between classification and classification - sometimes, their existence itself is contradictory. ”

"If these reinforcements are chosen correctly and well designed, then they will be reflected on the steel partner, and they will become a whole, and they will cooperate with each other to exert greater effects; But if you make the wrong choice, if you make the wrong design, then you can even lead to some very bad results......"

"There are so many examples of that I can say casually – but that's not the point – it's because of this happening that the same type of systematic template standard enhancement is gradually popular."

"There are about thirty-seven standard stencil enhancements for the motorcycle-type steel companion right now—each of which has stood the test of time and is near-perfect within the scope of its design; And each scheme can be compared with each other, and it can also achieve mutual advantages and disadvantages, and there is no advantage or disadvantage. ”

"If you like heavy firepower, then Seta IV is the best choice; If you like extreme speed, then the fifth generation of Thunderbolt is very suitable; The Sand Shark II is the most suitable template for desert terrain; The Chasseurs provide the best means of detection......"

In terms of professionalism alone, Rowling is indeed highly skilled. Every time she talks about a standard template, she will not only call up the corresponding drawings, but also make targeted comments.

Without the slightest hesitation or hesitation, Winder couldn't help but concentrate his attention while sighing, observing the influence of those templates intently.

And then......

He found that not every template provided by Rowling was in a finished state. Even most of them have only a general composition, and there are a lot of shortcomings in terms of details.

Because it didn't look like an exception, Winder finally couldn't hold back his confusion and asked aloud, "Why do so many of them don't look like they're done?" ”

"Oh, did you notice?" Rowling smiled at Winder, "Because the model itself is this kind of underlying structure." ”

Wende thought for a moment and guessed, "To make it easier to change parts?" ”

"Yes and no." Rowling suddenly said a seemingly unrelated question, "Our crossroads are the largest human gathering place within a radius of nearly 100 miles. I can proudly say that in this area...... The technical strength of the crossroads is undoubtedly the strongest. However, Crossroads is an emerging force after all, it has only been established for a few decades, and it still faces many difficulties and crises in the early days. So in terms of research on steel partners, it is only a little beginning at best. ”

"In such an environment, why do you think I know so much about so good template design?"
