Chapter Forty-Eight: The Advantages of Cold Weapons

"Boom-boom-"

Every time the mecha lifts a step, it will cause a huge shock when it lands, and the ordinary asphalt road simply can't withstand such a strong pressure, and the places where the mecha landed are shattered, of course, this is simulated according to the real situation, every time a broken piece appears, there is an independent "battle range statistics" system in front of Zhang Yang for statistics.

The purpose of this system is also very simple, the ultimate mission of the mecha warrior is to protect humanity, and if the human home is destroyed while destroying the monsters, it will simply outweigh the losses.

Although the total loss of an ordinary city may not be as important as a mecha costing 60 billion US dollars, this number is to remind the driver as a reference, not to fight with a bloody head, but to consider from many aspects, so this statistic does not exceed a certain value, and will not affect the score.

"After the topographic scan of the current scene, do you want to create a 3D image?"

"No."

Zhang Yang vetoed the construction of 3D images, which can easily interfere with the driver's field of vision in battle, but are not as convenient as 2D flat maps.

Zhang Yang glanced at the situation of the nuclear reactor, showing that the nuclear reactor was normal, located in the chest of the mecha, the nuclear radiation was firmly blocked by a heavy lead block, and the slightly leaked radiation was not even X-ray, and after being isolated by layers of mecha protection measures, the impact was almost equal to nothing, and using the nuclear reactor as the power of the mecha was a double-edged sword.

While providing a huge amount of energy, there is also a possibility that it can be used by monsters. The leakage of the nuclear reactor caused huge pollution, so every driver will keep an eye on the situation of the nuclear reactor at any time.

"Hiss-"

The poisonous hyena on the opposite side was still holding its ground. Zhang Yang looked around, and there was no life detection reaction in the area between the two, and it was obvious that all these residents had been moved to the shelter, which allowed Zhang Yang to let go of his hands to do it.

There is a street between the two, and because it is the middle of the night, the whole street is brightly lit at the moment, and most of the houses in the middle are ordinary houses. The straight-line distance between Zhang Yang and the monster is less than 2 kilometers, and for the two who are huge, 3 kilometers is just a matter of minutes and seconds.

"Torque System Ready."

Zhang Yang gave an order to the system. In addition to the virtual image of the mecha as a whole, the joints of the arms and legs are represented by yellow circles.

"Adjusted."

The sound of the system's machinery sounded, and Zhang Yang no longer hesitated, swinging his legs back and forth. Gradually accelerate. And the whole huge mecha also took a step, and then accelerated, and ran!

Because the size of the mecha is too large, the shape and operation method adopt humanoid mechanics, which is also convenient for the driver to quickly familiarize himself with the operation method, and the arms and thighs of the mecha weigh at least dozens of tons, so there are special reinforced mobile devices at the joints. It is used to replace human joints, and the torque system is specifically designed to regulate these joints. Without a torque system, the mecha is a stupid machine with straight hands and feet, and can't turn around.

The mecha itself is composed of countless parts, taking this "thug" third-generation mecha as an example, under the protection of the large piece of steel wrapped outside the arm, the lower part is thirty-five diesel-controlled muscle belts, which are used to replace human muscles, and the legs are as many as fifty full, and each movement requires so many muscle bands to react, there must be a certain delay.

The super torque system developed by PPDC researchers solves the problem of joints very well, but because of the layered structure (such as muscle bands) between the driver and the mecha, there will be a delay of 1-4 seconds in the transmission of commands.

In the computer simulation mecha game, at first the mecha couldn't keep up with Zhang Yang's reaction, and before he could punch, he was directly opened the cockpit by a virtual second-level chrysanthemum beast, for which Zhang Yang carefully studied the internal structure of the cockpit and the mecha, canceling his own reaction and mecha delay, and then mastered the method of manipulating the mecha.

"The first rule of the conventional combat method of the mecha battlefield, under the premise of ensuring the personal safety of civilians, it is allowed to take the initiative to attack the chrysanthemum beast and strive for the first opportunity in the battle."

In the thick mecha textbook, the first line of the battle case is written in such a text, the first strike is strong, and the last attack suffers, the mecha pilot is allowed to judge which combat plan to use according to the current battlefield situation, and seize the opportunity is the most commonly used in the case of easy movement and clear goals, and Zhang Yang decisively adopted this plan.

Boom-boom-boom

The mecha landed on the ground and burst out with a terrifying vibration, the huge humanoid mecha had already run, and in an instant it came to the front of the monster, the monster roared, and the whole body took advantage of the building as a springboard, and actually pounced forward in the air, and the four sharp claws grabbed the mecha at the same time.

"Squeak!"

As soon as the two came into contact, the accumulated potential energy immediately burst out, and there was a violent shaking in the cockpit, if it weren't for the bracket used to fix the driver behind him, as well as the linkage device under his feet, Zhang Yang had already been thrown out at the moment, and compared with the two, the weight of the mecha itself occupied some advantages, and he pushed the poisonous hyena backwards for a distance.

The monster was in pain, and suddenly roared, and the bloody mouth full of sharp fangs bit towards Zhang Yang, while the entire limb was holding the mecha to death, not giving Zhang Yang a chance to break free.

"Left hook!"

Seeing the monster biting him, Zhang Yang decisively picked up the sandbag, oh no, it was an iron fist the size of a truck, and the fist was also inlaid with stubby and sharp wolf tooth thorns, and hit the monster's chin from the bottom up, this blow can be described as ruthless and accurate, and the fist weighing dozens of tons smashed up, even if the monster skin was thick, it was extremely painful, and the iron thorns on the fist cut through the skin outside, and flowed out light blue acidic blood.

The monster hissed in pain, and the claws on its body were forced, and the monster with great strength, with the claws made of unknown materials, directly pinched and deformed the steel surface on the outside of the mecha, and sparks appeared in many places.

"17% non-fatal damage to the surface layer, no damage to critical locations."

Zhang Yang just glanced at the system prompt, and then focused on the monster in front of him, the monster has four claws, but Zhang Yang's joints all over the body, shoulders, fists and other parts are full of sharp long thorns, if the monster dares to bite down, Zhang Yang doesn't even need to move his fist, he can stab the other party's mouth into a hornet's nest.

Left fist, right fist, elbow strike......, a whole set of mecha conventional tactical actions in Zhang Yang's hands, most of the mecha belong to close combat, the Eureka Raider is an exception to this kind of fast long-range attacker, the main means of attack is a special missile, which is the standard configuration of the fifth-generation mecha, and Zhang Yang is only driving a third-generation mecha, and the thermal weapon is only equipped with a conventional missile launcher.

In fact, in Zhang Yang's heart, for these so-called high power, the thermal weapons at the bottom of the box are not cold, the storage time of the howitzer launcher is too long, ranging from 5 to 15 seconds, the shortest 5 seconds of power is equivalent to the power of 250 kg of equivalent TNT explosive explosion, and the longest 15 seconds is up to 750 kg, enough to kill most monsters in seconds.

But the shortcomings of such a weapon are also obvious, not every monster will give the mecha time to use the howitzer, and the target is too obvious, it is easy to be destroyed, and the Eureka Raider is because all of them use electrical energy control, and the monster after them uses electromagnetic shock waves, directly and easily destroying all electronic circuits, not to mention launching missiles, and even mobile can't do it, and the Eureka Raider is directly defeated.

Anyone who has watched the movie knows that cold weapons play no less role than hot weapons in the hands of mechas, and they will not be interfered with, so when choosing mechas, Zhang Yang decisively gave up the advanced mecha with grenade launchers, and instead chose the "thugs" with cold weapons as the main combat method.

"Hiss-"

Just like its name, the "thug" mecha itself is good at hand-to-hand combat, like a vicious thug, frantically attacking the monster on the body, and under the continuous heavy blows of Zhang Yang's old fist, the monster finally couldn't support it, let go of its claws and fell, and walked a few steps into the distance, the blue acidic blood converged into small lakes on the ground, staring at Zhang Yang, waiting for an opportunity.

"Whew." Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief, manipulating the mecha is a great consumption of the driver's physical energy, looking at the feet, the simulator simulates the cockpit of the real mecha, that is, under the cockpit are countless huge gears, if the driver loosens the fixture and falls, it will be stirred into minced meat in an instant.

Needless to say, Zhang Yang's physical fitness is the most prominent among these 10 candidates, that is, some regular mecha pilots, not necessarily much better than Zhang Yang, there is no doubt that a driver with a more abundant body can control the mecha to last longer in battle.

Zhang Yang should be glad that because it is the first time to drive the simulator, the target given by the instructor is only three generations of monsters, and the fourth generation of monsters is more diverse than the third generation, such as the addition of monsters that can emit electromagnetic shock waves, destroy electrons together, monsters that can launch highly corrosive and strong acids, and increase the ability to fly.

Russia's generation of mecha Chernoalpha and Huaxia's Storm Red are all planted on these, and Zhang Yang does not intend to repeat the mistakes of the past.

The more advanced the weapon, the more fragile it is, and an electromagnetic pulse missile can scrap a single electronic instrument within its range of influence, but it is an ancient cold weapon, which is not affected at all, so the concept of publicity is that instead of believing in those ethereal modern weapons, it is better to believe in the blade's own fist.
