Chapter 81: Imbalance

While waiting for the white dragon to retrieve the engine, the canopy had already lifted the floor of the cockpit, brought the emergency kit, and began to repair the vehicle's powertrain. Xuanzang was not idle, in addition to helping him hand over things, he also began to disassemble other parts of the chariot to replace the damaged parts.

The interior design of the Dijiang MK.I inherits the consistent style of the ground forces. In order to facilitate maintenance at any time after the strategic transfer, there are many emergency channels, and the internal structure is also designed with a combined module, which can replace and repair most parts without large tools without the need for large tools and manual means alone.

If it was the kind of one-piece mechanical creation that the gods and Buddhas were using now, it would not be so simple to cultivate. If you can't return to the factory, you can only scrap it on the battlefield and be recycled as scrap metal by sweepers.

Tianpeng has a very high level of understanding, and quickly adapted to the structure of the chariot, and the work is becoming more and more convenient, and Xuanzang's progress goes without saying. Only Jing Ruri held her sniper rifle and sat silently on the side, not knowing what to do.

In the first half of her life, Jingliuli existed entirely as a pure weapon.

The cyborg legion to which she belonged was born in the early post-war period before the mass production of drones. At that time, the remnants of the old world still had the ability to launch missiles into low-earth orbit, which was a threat to Tiangong that could not be underestimated. Located in the western crater, the Great Lei Yin Temple has also been mired in war, besieged for many years by forces watching the reincarnation technology.

This small group of human beings who have begun to take on the godhead urgently needs a strong and efficient army to complete the task of eradicating the world. And so the Cyborg Legion came into being.

The Immortal Buddha's technology has not yet reached the level of supernatural it is now, but it is also in the absolute leading position in the entire wasteland world. Combined with the exquisite biotechnology of Buddhism and the extremely mature power armor technology of Heavenly Court, the half-human, half-mechanical android warrior was designed and quickly put into mass production, and was put into all war zones in a short period of time, easily completing the crushing and harvesting of the remnants of the enemy army.

Cyborgs possess a high enough intelligence to be able to cope with the ever-changing battlefield with ease, and can perfectly implement complex strategies through highly unified collective action, but they are blank in terms of personality.

In Jingliuli's previous cognition, he only obeyed orders, never thought about the reason for doing so, and did not take the initiative to do anything from the heart. Her commander just needs her to be obedient, clear the target, and not do anything superfluous.

But after that serious security incident, when she witnessed the destruction of other legion members in batches, she suddenly had a strong desire to live, fearless of death, and drove her to flee to the mortal world. For hundreds of years, she has been surrounded by stories of death and rebirth, and she has always lived like a plant without joy or sorrow, only fighting back when faced with threats.

After a certain moment, she no longer obeyed the orders of heaven, because she knew that her life must be controlled by herself, and she should not be allowed to decide whether she lived or died. But she has no idea what she can do after surviving.

However, perhaps centuries of time have finally left some marks on her, and when Xuanzang and Tianpeng were busy, she wanted to stop talking several times. She didn't know how to communicate in such an occasion, but she had a strange feeling in her heart, as if she had to take the initiative to do something.

"That's right, Ruri." Xuanzang probably felt that the atmosphere was too dull, and suddenly asked, "When you found the Dijiang chariot, was there anyone inside?" ”

Hearing him call himself, Jing Liuli immediately raised his head and replied, "No." ”

"What about the bones? Or whatever. ”

She shook her head again.

This is strange, Xuanzang thought to himself. The last battle of the previous life, about fifty years ago, when Dijiang MK.I was still intact, and Mo Quli also fought side by side with him. The moment he lost contact with Mo Quli's troops was not too long after his last death. Could it be that they still have time to move the Dijiang chariot to safety before they are killed?

And the place of the battle is definitely not in the quicksand river. Xuanzang confirmed to Jing Liuli the time and location of her chariot, which was very different from her memory.

Jingliuli arrived at the Liusha River more than 20 years ago, when the Dijiang chariot was already in a semi-buried state, and it has not been found due to its special location. Only a wanderer like her, who has wandered aimlessly and walked every inch of land in defiance of the harshness of the environment, would meet her by chance.

What happened during the gap in the past few decades seems to be impossible to know from the mouth of the pure glass.

Seeing that she sat next to her again without saying a word, Xuanzang felt that it was a bit of a waste of resources, so he thought about it and asked her to remove the weapons that could still be used on the chariot. Anyway, if you don't take it away, you'll have to be buried with the chariot later.

Jingruri seemed to be happy to accept the order, and after reading the structure diagram on the display, she quickly found the location of the weapon module. She finished the work he had entrusted her with in a few moments, and laid the dismantled things neatly in front of her.

Tiancang heard the sound, and also poked his head out from underneath, and took the time to look at the results of the pure glass. "I don't think I can use it alone." He turned to Xuanzang for advice.

Xuanzang also felt that most of the weapons were not suitable for the current situation, and it was unlikely that they would find another chariot that could carry these weapons. Even if there was a chance later, those beam emitters and the like would be too big to take with them.

Jing Liuli listened carefully to their words, and didn't know what to remember, so she ran to tinker for a while, and came back with a few spherical objects. "It's small, but it's broken." She held the contents of her arms for the two of them to see.

Tianpeng checked the instructions on the control interface, looked at the nine spheres the size of human heads, and said, "It's okay, take it first, it's more useful." I've seen something like this, and I can fix it for you, but it won't be until we get out of danger. ”

Jing Liuli nodded vigorously, turned out a piece of cloth, wrapped them, and placed them carefully.

Half an hour later, the white dragon came back from the emergency exit at the bottom of the chariot and said with a straight face: "Good news, the thing is underground, you can get the pig's head yourself." Bad news, they found me, the transformation process should have been recorded, and I guess my body type has been confirmed. But don't worry, I didn't let them find out about it. ”

"It's good to come back, let's hurry up." Xuanzang said.

It took several men another whole night to put the assembled makeshift engine into the vehicle's powertrain and connect all the pipelines. It took some means to bypass the self-inspection system and force the vehicle to recognize the new engine, and the repair was finally completed.

"Hopefully it will be successful one time." The canopy took a deep breath and flipped a few switches, slowly pushing the lever to the top.

The entire cab vibrated slightly, and the power indicator slots jumped upward, crossing the threshold under the nervous gaze of everyone.

"It's coming, it's coming......" Canopy whispered to himself, paying more careful attention to the changes.

"Beep-"

With a piercing alarm, the cab slammed into a terrible cracking sound.

"What's going on?" The white dragon shouted.

Xuanzang turned back to his body and looked at the sub-interface in front of his seat: "The energy demand of the system is too high, the power conversion rate is too low, the engine is overloaded, and it cannot withstand the operation of the energy core of the chariot." ”

"Why, I obviously adjusted accordingly." Tianpeng said anxiously, his right hand tightly grasped the operating lever, and his left hand quickly tapped a series of buttons to maintain the stability of the chariot, "What should I do, the index is all messed up!" ”

"Turn off all functions, keep only the powertrain, and balance the output." Xuanzang said calmly.

"But ......"

"We can do it."

Canopy gritted his teeth and finished the operation.

Immediately, the temperature inside the chariot rose sharply, and the air became thinner, like a large furnace. Damage prompts appear on the interface, and vehicles that have lost their shields are about to die underground.
