Chapter 276 Mad Dog Theory

As the game progressed, more and more viewers with mechanical experience had already seen the clue that Xia Fei and Konstantin were not repairing the samurai-class light combat drone, but were building a new one with limited parts

It's impossible to explain what exactly the two of them resemble in their work, but it's definitely a combat drone, except that it's not the same as the usual model, and doesn't belong to any of the known types in the Alliance.

Because it is a temporary assembled drone, whether it is firepower or defense, their works are more than one grade worse than the original samurai class, but this is not the key, the key is that Xia Fei and Konstantin did it, the parts are so broken, they used manual methods to combine these defective products into a usable drone.

This is by no means an easy job, and it is not as simple as building blocks, first of all, you need to re-plan the various subsystems of a drone, and then arrange the circuit output and input ports, fire allocation, and power allocation.

If there is a powerful intelligent engineering software to help, Xia Fei's work will be much easier, but unfortunately the competition does not allow the use of computers, everything must rely on his own brain to complete, the amount of calculations is huge, and few people can understand the complexity of calculations.

Li Mo, who was a little farther away, saw the movements of Xia Fei and Konstantin, he suddenly realized that he might be going in the wrong direction, he always thought that today's competition was to test the proficiency of the players in sending out incurable diseases, but he didn't suddenly realize until this time that the real purpose of the competition was to test the players' creative ability and adaptability in extremely difficult situations

Li Mo's head was quickly covered with sweat, he hurriedly disassembled the general drone, and continued to install it, even if the drone could be restored in appearance in the end, it would be impossible to fly, although he was very reluctant, but he decided to follow Xia Fei's practice to redesign and assemble the drone.

The biggest problem now is that time is running out, and the electronic timer tells the players that they only have seventy-nine minutes left.

……

In the Honorary Members Lounge of the Mechanics Association, several senior mechanics are becoming more and more interested in this game, because they are the chief referee of this competition, so every action of the players, every choice will be clearly known, only a few clicks on the computer in their hands, everything is naturally clear.

"Who do you think has the best plan, Xia Fei or Konstantin?" Nian Fuguang, the general director of this competition, asked.

Everyone was silent for a while, now that the game is still ongoing, Xia Fei's drone has not yet been finalized, so it is not easy to judge the advantages and disadvantages.

The fat old man Lu Xuanxin said bluntly: "Xia Fei has reduced the defense system and sprinted the drone firepower with all his might, while Konstantin is more balanced, all factors have been taken into account, Konstantin's design should be better." ”

An old man with a goatee next to him said: "Old Lu, you can't say that, although Xia Fei's design has lost part of the defense, it has adjusted the attack power of the fire system to a level similar to that of the new drone, you see that he is still deliberately correcting the speed of the speed gun, if it can really succeed, the firepower of his drone is only afraid that it will be sharper than the new one, you are engaged in the defense system, of course, it will be towards Constantine, but those of us who are engaged in fire control hope to get the maximum firepower output, From my point of view, Xia Fei's design is relatively good, and he can push the firepower to the limit under such limited conditions, which not everyone can do. ”

The fat man Lu Xuan snorted coldly, and said to himself: "If there is no defense system, no matter how strong the attack power is, it will be useless." ”

"What did you say?" Goatee was in a hurry on the spot, he stood up and said sharply: "Attack is the best defense, haven't you heard?" ”

"I've heard of it." Lu Xuan quietly counterattacked: "But that's just a wave, if it's a protracted war, it depends on your own defensive performance." ”

The top elders of these mechanic associations are experts in various systems, and they will of course have differences with each other's different positions, such as the question of defense or offense has been arguing within the alliance for tens of thousands of years, and there has never been a fixed answer.

Even the most powerful warships in the universe are difficult to balance, and the relationship between spear and shield is like the proposition that there is a chicken or an egg, and no one can explain it.

Defense expert Lu Xuan and fire control expert Goatee quarreled endlessly, and soon other authorities in different fields joined the battle, and the most important VIP room of the Mechanics Association became a vegetable market in the blink of an eye, and the abuse was endless.

"Enough" Nian Fuguang said in a deep voice, as the Emperor of the Mechanic Association, the commander-in-chief of the eleven consecutive Golden Finger Cup, the chief referee, Nian Fuguang's influence has even exceeded his field, and everyone immediately quieted down when he roared out of his voice, sitting in their seats indignantly, with each other's faces blushing.

"It's not that you don't know, there is no fixed answer to the question of firepower or defense, you just quarrel for another 10,000 years and there will be no result, I don't think it's better to do this, wait until the end of the game to call Xia Fei and Konstantin both players here, let them talk about their design concepts, whoever has a more reasonable idea will give a full score to the competition?" Nian Fuguang said.

This method is naturally good, it is much better to listen to the ideas of the players than to quarrel with a few outsiders, and everyone agreed, although they agreed, but they did not speak to each other anymore, and maintained a cold war.

……

Seven minutes and forty seconds before the end of the game, Xia Fei was the first to complete his work, because his ability is speed, so he has an absolute advantage in hand speed, his drone is much more complex than Konstantin's design, but it takes less time.

Avril nervously stood up from her seat, and through the video system, she already knew that Xia Fei was not a samurai-type drone, but a very strange thing.

Avril asked Pang Xing's opinion for this, and wanted to know what Xia Fei had done, but unfortunately Pang Xing also knew little about machinery, let alone the essentials of combat drones.

I have to say that Xia Fei's taste is very problematic, he made this improvised piece of drone very hideous, like a huge black cactus, covered with hard thorns of different lengths, almost ugly.

Seeing that the other players had assembled a samurai-level drone that was exactly the same as the original, and her own Xia Fei was pretending to be a messy monster, Avril couldn't help but be very worried, she didn't want to see Xia Fei lose the game, especially in the hands of Li Mo and that nondescript Konstantin.

In fact, there are many, many people who think that Xia Fei's machine is ugly, and the Star Network has hundreds of millions of messages in an instant, all of which are evaluating the appearance of Xia Fei's work, and almost everyone thinks that this machine is aesthetically devoid and ugly.

A vote was launched by a good deed to select the ugliest work ever created by the Goldfinger Contest, and Xia Fei's cactus ball drone was decisively elected with 99.99 percent of the votes.

Xia Fei didn't know what the world thought of his work, and even if he knew, he wouldn't change his original idea, the combat drone was not born for beauty, it existed to fight, and the rest was not considered by Xia Fei at all.

Lighting a cigarette, Xia Fei quickly checked his drone, after all, it was a temporary patchwork that had not been tested by the engineering simulation system, and Xia Fei was not very sure of its performance.

On the other side, Li Mo had already sweated profusely, although he imitated Xia Fei and began to reassemble this machine, but after all, he started it relatively late, and he did not have the extraordinary hand speed of Xia Fei, so until now, he had just completed about fifty-five percent, and there were only a few minutes left for him.

Two minutes and seven seconds before the end of the game, Konstantin's work was completed, compared to Xia Fei's hideous cactus, Konstantin's drone seemed decent, it was like a rectangular box, stupid and stupid, with sharp edges and corners.

Countless people watching the game were once again furious, Konstantin's work was slightly more formal than Xia Fei's, but it could not be called good-looking, so his drone quickly occupied the second place on the list of ugliest works.

The audience frowned, it was really a strange game, Xia Fei and Konstantin, who had previously performed well, had built two of the ugliest drones of all time, and the No. 1 seed Li Mo had not been able to finish his work near the end of the match.

A considerable number of players assembled samurai-level drones, but none of them looked good, because they knew very well in their hearts that such drones were just decorations, let alone fighting, and they couldn't even fly.

Xia Fei checked his work and felt that there was no problem, so he took a step and walked out, raising his head and smiling at Avril in the stands, Avril's hanging heart finally fell after seeing Xia Fei's confident appearance, and beckoned to Xia Fei with a red face.

On the other side, Konstantin followed closely behind and walked out, he looked at Xia Fei's work and then at his own, and couldn't help but smile proudly.

"It's time to compete, please stop what you're doing and leave the scene within ten seconds, otherwise you will be judged for violating the rules." The cold girl of the game monitoring system said that all smart computers are like this sound, as if carved out of a mold, and there is no freshness.

Xia Fei passed through the detection door, and then stopped to the side waiting for his score, but after a few seconds, there was no show on the light curtain, and the same was true of Konstantin, the two of them looked at each other very strangely, and they didn't know what was going on.

Each of the players who came out next had a score, but all of them had zero points without exception

The scene was boiling, and it was unbelievable that there were so many zero points at the same time, and in the eyes of many laymen, the cactus ball that Xia Fei assembled should have scored zero points, not these well-behaved players.

Li Mo followed the flow of people to the side of the inspection door, pinched a handful of sweat in his heart, hesitated at the door for a moment, and then gritted his teeth and passed, as if he was generous and righteous.

"Twenty-Three"

"Finally someone scored"

"That's not right, Li Mo didn't finish the game, how can he have points?"

"Yes, there are many players who have obviously completed the requirements of the competition or still scored zero points, Li Mo has only completed more than half of them, why does he have points?"

"The Li family has a big business, and it is unknown if they can buy the referee."

The people in the stands and the spectators watching the game through the Star Network had a lot of discussions, and they couldn't figure out what was going on in today's game, not to mention so many zero points, and there were people like Xia Fei who didn't score.

The richness of human imagination discourages other creatures, and just a few seconds after Li Mo's score came out, the Star Network was full of rumors, some said that Li Mo bought the referee, some said that the intelligent monitoring system failed, and even linked this bizarre assessment with the conspiracy of the Zerg, thinking that there was an alien race that infiltrated the human alliance and deliberately sabotage.

Li Mo came to Xia Feihao Konstantin with a malicious smile, and deliberately circled around them, as if he was laughing at them for not even having a score.

At this time, a staff member said to them: "The tournament committee has asked you two to come to the refereeing center, now. ”

Xia Fei was slightly stunned, he didn't know why the competition committee called him over, and Konstantin didn't know what to do.

After saying hello to Avril, Xia Fei and Konstantin walked out under the leadership of the staff, Li Mo did not leave, and the tournament committee summoned Xia Fei to make him extremely interested, wanting to know what the reason was.

Taking the elevator to the sixth floor, Xia Fei came to this old man's club, there were a total of nine people here, all of them wore the medal of honor of the Mechanics Association on their chests, and wore the cyan uniforms that only trade union veterans would have, but these people were already old, many of them were pot-bellied, and they no longer had the style of the year when they wore uniforms.

"Please be seated." Nian Fuguang said with a smile: "I am the chief referee of this Goldfinger Cup Mechanic Competition, and these people here are also veterans of the association, and we have some questions we want to know." ”

Xia Fei said: "If you have anything, just ask." ”

Nian Fuguang nodded and said, "Konstantin, first of all, tell me where is the point of the drone you assembled in today's competition?" And for what purpose is it assembled? ”

Konstantin said: "My idea is actually very simple, try to make the combat drone have a more balanced performance, especially in terms of armor, a combat drone without a solid defense is useless no matter how strong the firepower is, on the battlefield first needs to survive, and then be able to hit the enemy." ”

"So I re-reinforced the shell with 15 mm alloy steel plates, and the interior was also adjusted accordingly, striving to improve the survivability of the drone."

The fat old man Lu Xuan was very satisfied with Konstantin's answer, he himself studied the defense system, so he would naturally focus on the defense capability of drones.

Nian Fuguang nodded, "There is some truth in what you said, but the drone you modified is not powerful enough, it is very slow in speed, and it cannot track high-speed targets, and the samurai-level drone is equipped with a high-speed artillery with a very short range, why don't you improve the range of the artillery, so that he can attack the enemy in a wide area?" ”

Konstantin spread his arms helplessly and said: "Because I don't have enough time and materials, being able to make this look is my limit." ”

The crowd was still very satisfied with Konstantin's words, which were reasonable and without any exaggeration.

Nian Fuguang asked Xia Fei again: "The appearance of your work is very strange, of course, this is not the point, we want to know why the drone you assembled is crazy to increase vitality, but it does not take into account the due defense?" ”

Xia Fei smiled: "Because on the battlefield, this kind of drone can't think of anything else that can be done except to output firepower." ”

Everyone was very curious, and the fast-talking Lu Xuan said, "How can there be nothing else to do?" When the UAV is attacked, it also needs to spread the distance and fly around to avoid being hit, and it also needs to resist the strike after being hit, and it is also necessary to establish a secondary contact with the command system immediately after the communication is interrupted by the impact of the enemy's electromagnetic bomb, and it is not just as simple as firing a gun. ”

Xia Fei said lightly: "What you said is a normal drone, and the one I assembled is not only attacking but also attacking, desperately attacking." ”

"Why do you think that?" Nian Fuguang asked with a frown.

Xia Fei said: "Konstantin also said just now that he installed a fifteen-millimeter alloy steel plate in order to improve the survivability of the drone, and the steel plate can indeed improve the defense, but what can the fifteen-millimeter steel plate defend against in a real fight?" Enemy spears? ”

"The defense of the fifteen-millimeter alloy plate is too weak, and this extra layer of steel plate will not do anything, but will reduce the speed of the drone, I have carefully calculated that relying on the existing raw materials will not improve the defense capability of the drone at all."

"You may think that what I said is wrong, if you use all the accessories can improve the ability to resist hits by 10%, I want to say, this is a scrap of copper and rotten iron, is it so important to have that 10% defense? No matter how you strengthen it, the enemy will kill it in one shot, so you won't waste your limited resources on defense. ”

Everyone was speechless for a while, what Xia Fei said was indeed reasonable, a piece of white paper only needs to be pierced lightly, and the effect of overlapping two blank papers together is the same.

"My goal is very simple, to use this improvised patchwork combat drone as a disposable, concentrate superior resources to strengthen the attack power, and strive to bite the enemy before he dies, even if he doesn't die, he will make the other party feel pain."

"You can't use these materials to create a qualified unmanned fighter, so I made it into a qualified mad dog, and I can't bite others There is nothing to say, because its performance is there, I'm afraid it's only one-tenth of a brand new drone, but as long as the opponent is accidentally bitten, then it will have to see blood."

"And the appearance you mentioned before, the reason why I welded so many alloy spikes on the drone's shell is that in case the cannon can't hit, I will directly hit the enemy and die with him."

Everyone was stunned for a while, Xia Fei's concept of preferring jade to pieces rather than tiles was really crazy, and the ghost once gave Xia Fei's idea a very apt name.

It's called Mad Dog Theory A
