Just when Kiriko and Lifa were amazed by the huge production space outside the glass, or the armed military fortress, Ellie canceled the projection and refocused all her attention on sorting out the materials, and Yukikaze and Chrissy were not idle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Kerr, how is the formation of the unmanned legion completed?" Yukikaze asked Chrissy.

"Everything is going according to the original plan, and the specific situation will be reported by this little guy." After Chrissy replied, she clapped her hands and said summoningly, "The first detection report of all the work platforms has come, and I need enough computing resources to process the information now." ”

"Is it already possible to take over this fortress completely? Lushun. ”

That's right, just after Chrissy clapped her hands, the image of a young girl was projected on the round table again. This is a girl dressed in Qing Dynasty costumes (without a crown), with giant ~ breasts, tiger ears and tiger tails, and the same body as the ten sisters of Yangyan is an optical quantum computer.

After Xuefeng and the others came to this world, for experiments and other reasons, they didn't just send Lilian, Bai Fei and Yuki to find the Garden of Eden, nor just dug a self-sufficient armed military fortress underground, and didn't just form a legion composed of war machines.

The manufacture of Xinguang quantum computer is also one of the many action plans of Xuefeng and others.

The new optical quantum computer manufactured this time is no longer like the ten sisters of Yangyan, and belongs to the universal optical quantum computer that is biased towards the operation of warships.

Lushun is one of them, as an experimental optical quantum computer dedicated to base management, it was completed by Xuefeng and others half a month ago, and then gradually let Lushun take over this fortress in the process of learning.

Another important reason why Chrissy did not follow Yukikaze and Ellie to the Garden of Eden was the care of the rest of the plans and the newly-born "babies".

"Don't worry, Sister Xuefeng, I've already been recognized by Sister Chrissy!" Lushun said confidently about Xuefeng's question.

"So, let's report on the current situation of the unmanned legion." Xue Feng nodded indifferently and said.

"Yes, Sister Xuefeng!"

So, when Tongzi and Lifa, who withdrew their eyes because they heard an unfamiliar voice, they also looked at Lushun curiously and listened carefully to the report made by Lushun.

"Up to now, eight thousand two hundred and sixty-five two-legged walkers of the LK-3 type have been produced." With the sound of Lushun's words, behind Lushun, a new picture appeared on the projection screen on the round table: an unmanned war machine with two long ~ legs, no upper body, and directly carrying various weapons above the legs.

That's right, this kind of machine is the orthodox successor to the LK-1 alchemy puppet designed and used by Xue Feng and others.

Speaking of which, the LK-1 has not actually built any prototypes in reality. At first, it was not needed, after all, all the peaceful Sword Art Online world simply did not have a training ground for these monsters born purely for war. The subsequent OG world has left the LK-1 with no room to play at all: what role can a slightly larger mechanical body play in the face of terrifying giants that are more than 20 meters high?

Not to mention the aftermath of the "destruction" that struck after that, in front of an enemy that even the Yangyan-class battleship was about to become cannon fodder, which could be described as surpassing, the LK-1 was probably not even an ant.

If the LK-1 is the initial one, then the LK-3 is the final one. As for the LK-2 model, it is true that there are not only design drawings, but also physical testing machines. But the heaviest was rejected in favor of the design of the LK-3 type.

If there is one thing that must be said, the LK-1 model has been rejected when Yukikaze and others are training in the virtual world. Then Yukikaze and Chrissy began the design of the LK-2 type, and then in reality, Yuki and others practiced using the LK-2 testing machine.

After all, as an alchemy puppet, the LK-1 type can't even do the duty of cannon fodder in addition to virtual space. Not only is it because the entire production process needs to rely entirely on alchemy technology to produce, which leads to the fact that in some worlds outside of special circumstances, it is impossible to produce at all, and it is also a great waste of resources.

Just look at the magical world that is completely on the mysterious side, even the simplest alchemy puppet is not an ordinary war machine that can be made and sold at will, and even the veritable noble and noble: mage, only a small number of specialized, rich, and powerful mages can play alchemy puppets.

And what country that can use alchemy puppets as legions can't do cross-dimensional colonization?

Although compared to war machines such as chariots on the ordinary sci-fi side, alchemy puppets are far superior in individual combat power, similar to MS, PTX and the like. But to be honest, this is also because of the combination of expensive materials and wasted energy, and then with the assistance of the magic array, this strength is achieved. In terms of energy efficiency, alchemy golems cannot be compared to sci-fi units such as chariots.

It is true that modern civilization cannot achieve a high degree of energy utilization, but this is a technical problem, and the energy utilization rate of diesel engines is like this, and it is really unpleasant and there is no way. However, it is precisely because of this that it will lead to modern civilization, almost according to the size of the engine power, the slightest increase in equipment and armament, and even the weight of ~ the engine has reached the level of the baht.

Can you make stronger armed units? The answer is: Yes! But the main energy source is not keeping up......

Therefore, for the utilization rate of energy, that is, the power of the engine, modern civilization has been used to the extreme (we are talking about a thrifty rabbit here, not a bald eagle with enough power to fly to the sky), which is in stark contrast to the profligacy of the magical world:

What the? The Earth's Heart Crystal is being used by you as the main energy source for a one-man tall alchemy puppet!? Ahh It's so distressing! If you have this thing, the space station is a ball! Lao Tzu even made the Death Star for you to see!! (Actually, it still can't be built, because the Death Star needs 1,080 trillion tons of steel.) Estimated at today's global steel production, it would take 833315 years to obtain enough steel, at a total cost of $852,000 trillion, equivalent to 13,000 times global GDP. -- From a branch under the Death Star entry in Baidu Encyclopedia: The United States Proposes the Ultimate Weapon)

So, what if the armed units of modern civilization are added to the energy of the magic world, plus various types of magic arrays?

So, after the rejection of the pure alchemy puppet LK-1, the LK-2 hatchling (this is the official code name) was born on this basis.

Combining the utilization rate of energy and high-precision mechanical structure on the technology side, supplemented by the energy source on the mysterious side and various magic arrays, the performance of the LK-2 is more than a step higher than that of the LK-1 in all aspects.

However, at the cost of the LK-2, the productivity of the LK-2 was also lower than that of the LK-1. It's not pure magic, so it can be used in all worlds if you adjust it accordingly, but it requires a lot more man-hours. But the good thing is that the price/performance ratio is still within the acceptable range, so it is still a successful design.

And the final draft machine LK-3 that is now appearing has returned to its origins, and the road to cannon fodder is gone forever.

The LK-3 bipedal walker has strengthened the leg structure and made the bipedal walker have stronger mobility than the LK-1 and LK-2. The structure of the upper body was also abolished, and it was replaced by a sufficiently rudimentary and compact armed carrying platform.

The advantage is that even if the leg structure is strengthened, the weight of the body is greatly reduced. It allows injection fuel (the LK-2 model has an injection motorized device) to support it for a longer period of time, reduces the man-hours required for production, and further improves the cost performance. At least in terms of armament, with the presence of armed carrying platforms, bipedal walkers can carry a sufficient number of almost all conventional weapons, such as two 20mm cannons, a recoilless 30mm cannon, and several universal launchers that can fire various grenades.

This firepower is enough to sweep away more than one platoon in modern society, and it can even be used against a company.

The most obvious drawback is that the bipedal walker completely loses the possibility of melee combat. Of course, there are also special melee models (chainsaw sword and micro charge), but on the other hand, the lack of ranged ability.

But the most fatal flaw is that this improvement has completely reduced the bipedal walkers to cannon fodder for throwaways. Just like the Tan~Ke in World War II, although the firepower mobile defense is strong, the weakness is too obvious, and a simple ****** thrown at the right position can completely scrap a Tan~Ke.

As the main maneuvering structure, the long ~ leg has no cover and defense, and even the defense of the body itself can only rely on the jet maneuver with limited time. In addition, in order to save man-hours and increase cost performance, ordinary alloy armor is used. Although it has the reinforcement of the magic circle, the bipedal walker is basically an existence that can be taken away by three RPGs (then again, ordinary rifles and light machine guns really can't tear through the defense of the bipedal walker, even if they hit key parts, it's useless, and this kind of thing is really easy to use).

Moreover, the body of the bipedal walker is not tall, only about 2m, which means that the bomb area is small, but also means that the bomb load of the bipedal walker is extremely limited. If you are armed too much, you will have a very weak ability to sustain combat.

To put it simply, the Bipedal Walker is actually a firepower-enhanced pickup truck with limited ammunition load, and if it is not formed to form a large enough size, it will not achieve anything in the frontal battlefield.

But even so, as cannon fodder to fill the battlefield, the indicators of the bipedal walker have been qualified to the point that they can no longer be qualified.

For cannon fodder, as long as one's own attack can tear through the opponent's defenses, then the only thing left is the task of pouring all one's ammunition before he dies in battle.

In a real frontal battlefield, the one who can shoot all his ammunition before he dies in battle is either a real trump card, or a machine gunner who suppresses firepower, can others really shoot all their ammunition before they die in battle?

And on a real battlefield where even dragons and fighters fall like dumplings, do the two attributes of mobility and defense really work?

As cannon fodder, in fact, as long as the maneuver and defense are barely qualified, it is enough to pile up the rest in terms of firepower and productivity.

It can be said that the LK-3 bipedal walker is the cannon fodder finalized drone of the Overwatch Dragon Legion!

Not to mention the rest, in terms of productivity alone, in just over a month, more than 8,000 aircraft can be produced with the help of this underground fortress, and its advantages in productivity are self-evident. While the footprint and productivity of this fortress is a bit intimidating, this order of magnitude also shows that the design of the bipedal walker is excellent.

However, as a fully formed legion, how can it be only cannon fodder! (To be continued.) )
