【Chapter 253】

Hotline guns.

The destruction of the high-frequency magnetic swing blade is to use the principle of high-frequency oscillation to destroy the molecular structure of the metal, and under the instantaneous shock, the mecha will be seriously damaged, thus losing its combat effectiveness. If it is a high-power magnetic swing blade, it can shatter the mecha in an instant.

Unlike the terrifying lethality of the Magnetic Blade, the hot-wire gun's lethality principle is to melt at a high temperature at a concentration point, causing the target to be reduced to ashes

For a steel mecha weighing tens of tons and twelve meters high, being melted at a certain point will not make the mecha lose its combat effectiveness, so the use of the hot wire gun has limitations.

Dafan, the most popular mecha locations for the hot wire gun to attack are in the cockpit and the mecha throat area.

Shooting the cockpit can directly kill the mech pilot, and the throat of the mecha is a place where the optical path fiber optic cable is dense, and a slight damage can make the mech ineffective.

Knife 3 chose the throat part of the mecha.

The throat of the humanoid mecha is the weakest point of the mecha, and the cockpit is relatively thickly armored, so the Knife 3 is not sure to shoot through the most luxurious mecha in history. And, he is well aware that he only has one chance.

So, he finally chose the throat part of the mecha.

After nearly a thousand years of development, the mecha still can't get rid of the humanoid structure, of course, this is not that humans can't break through technology, but in fact, as early as hundreds of years ago, humans have developed a variety of models of special-shaped mechas. However, humans seem to have a unique plot for humanoid mechas, and even the most powerful alien mecha cannot replace humanoid mechas.

If someone has a strange-looking mech, they will be ridiculed and regarded as an outlier.

Catering to the needs of the market is king.

Under the fashion trend dominated by humanoid mechas, the development of human beings on the mecha form began to be fixed into a humanoid form, which became a cultural tradition, and even a slight change would never affect the overall human image of the mecha.

In the market, more than 90% of mechs have cockpit parts in the head, engine compartment in the chest, energy compartment in the abdomen, and auxiliary engines in the limbs and joints to improve attack speed and strength. There are also a very small number of mechs that will have the cockpit set on their chest, with their head used entirely as a processing position for holographic scanning and sensors.

From a combat point of view, the humanoid mecha does not conform to the principle of physical optimization, and there are many drawbacks, such as the flexibility of the robotic arm and the load-bearing of the mechanical leg, which restricts the combat effectiveness and diversified development of the mecha. The narrow position of the throat is densely packed with thousands of optical paths, and optical cables are the fatal weakness.

According to the working principle of the first generation of special-shaped mechas, the eight-legged mecha like a spider is actually the most perfect mecha, not only able to adapt to changing terrain, but also able to disperse the weight of the mechanical legs. Of course, the most important thing is that even if half of the mechanical legs are lost, the mecha can still move freely, which greatly improves the survivability of the mecha in complex terrain.

Compared to the alien mecha, the mechanical legs are the biggest weakness. The humanoid mecha only has two legs, and if it loses one mechanical leg, the mecha will lose its balance, or even completely paralyzed and lose its combat effectiveness.

Compared to the earlier concept of the eight-legged mecha, the humanoid mecha has a fatal flaw in addition to the disadvantage of mechanical legs.

Throat.

Because the cockpit of the mech is in the head, the throat of the humanoid mech becomes the only way for all cutting-edge weapons to control the light path, and even the slightest damage can lead to catastrophic consequences.

In fact, compared to the special-shaped mecha, the weakness of the humanoid mecha is too many. The energy chamber, engine compartment, cockpit, and mechanical legs are all lethal positions.

Eight-legged mechs like the early human concept have an energy chamber, cockpit, and engine bay all in one central location, which greatly simplifies operation while enhancing defense and survivability.

However, human beings have a preference for humanoid mecha in their bones, believing that human beings are the spirit of all things, and mecha should also be like humans, and any special-shaped mecha will be rejected and unable to gain the recognition of human beings, let alone occupy the market.

Under this general trend, the research and development of special-shaped mecha has been stopped hundreds of years ago.

Some scientists believe that the future development and conjecture of mecha will inevitably be replaced by special-shaped mechas, but unfortunately, this theory cannot be supported. Occasionally, some research departments that focus on special-shaped mecha are also struggling because they can't get enough funding.

Zeus can be described as the pinnacle of humanoid mechas.

However, even if Zeus is almost perfect, Zeus, as a humanoid mecha, has congenital defects that cannot be compensated for by a perfect design.

The larynx is not only the fatal part of other mechas, but also the fatal part of Zeus.

At the moment when the shooting compartment on the Dao 3 robotic arm suddenly opened, not only the passengers looked sluggish, but Liu Fei also fell into a dilemma.

Retreat, there is no way back.

In, hot wire gun.

Whether it is retreating or advancing, Liu Fei is surviving in a desperate situation.

In this electric light, Liu Fei immediately made a decision.

Enter!

There is no doubt that "in" is the more optimal choice. If you retreat, dodging in this not very wide bar can avoid a temporary disaster, but it will cause unimaginable consequences.

You know, there are more than 10,000 unarmed travelers in the refuge area.

In the exclamation of the passengers, Zeus rushed forward without hesitation, and the alloy dagger pierced a white line in the air, and the wind was galloping, as if the air was pierced with ripples in circles.

After Knife 3 entered the shooting command, a cold and cruel smile appeared on his face.

Impressively.

The smile on Knife 3's face froze.

Zeus didn't seem to be hurt in the slightest, and still rushed over at a gallop.

What happened?

Could it be that the hot wire gun is malfunctioning?

Could it be that Zeus opened the energy shield?

Could it be that the energy of the hot wire gun could not penetrate the alloy armor at the throat of Zeus?

No way! No way!!

The Knife 3 is very confident in its weapon, and moreover, the Cheetah's light-brain self-test system does not indicate that the hotline gun is malfunctioning. Zeus opened the energy shield? Obviously, this is not true, although the activation time of the energy shield is extremely short, however, it also requires a process, and it is impossible for the other party to activate the energy shield in an instant.

Most likely, the hot-wire gun could not penetrate the alloy armor of Zeus' throat.

However, Knife 3 is well aware that this possibility is not valid.

When modifying the cheetah, Knife 3 deliberately strengthened the energy input of the hot wire gun. The Cheetah's main engine and twelve auxiliary engines, as well as the energy chamber, are all aimed at making this sneak attack hotline gun achieve terrifying lethality.

In order to achieve the effect of a lethal sneak attack, Knife 3 even sacrificed the momentary power of the cheetah to provide powerful energy support for the hot wire gun.

Knife 3 believes that as long as the opponent does not open the energy shield, no advanced mecha can resist the hot wire gun of the cheetah.

What happened?

What's going on?

Knife 3's eyes stared at every detail on the holographic screen, and Zeus, who was hedging over, ignored it.

Even if it's death, he has to figure out why.

Finally, he noticed that something was wrong. The alloy dagger on Zeus's mechanical arm is actually only the handle of the knife-

――

I see.

At the moment when the cheetah was disintegrated by Zeus's powerful overclocking blade, Knife 3 understood.

The hot-wire gun didn't malfunction, Zeus didn't activate the energy shield, and it wasn't that the hot-wire gun couldn't penetrate Zeus' armor.

The reason is simple, the hot wire gun did not hit the target.

At the moment of death, a very strange smile appeared on Knife 3's face, and he died with a happy heart. The other party is a master, a master who can judge the direction of the shot in an instant, and capture the shooting point.

It is not an honor to be able to die under the master.

Knife 3 died, and the cheetah mecha disintegrated and shattered in an instant.

Under the tremendous impact of Zeus, the disintegrating cheetah shot out in the air, the wreckage flew all over the sky, and the geometrically patterned defensive areas sounded like a dense raindrop, and the sound was extremely terrifying.

The defense zone was put to the test at this time, and the huge mechic wreckage crashed into it, causing no real damage, not even the first line of defense moving a bit.

The construction of these geometric patterns simply takes the collision avoidance of physics to the extreme, there is no point-to-point, any place is facing the point, so that a huge surface can bear the impact of the point, and the impact force is delayed by decreasing.

There was a moment of silence.
