Chapter 204: The Insect Mechanic (Part II)

When Guff transforms the guns that the company has been working on overnight into water guns, he feels like his life has gone crazy.

However, compared to what he had done in the past three days, it was nothing worth mentioning.

That's right, in the past three days, he became the first designer in the coalition government area to design equipment for hornworms, and what made him even more crazy was that these mutated creatures that had beaten it to the ground seemed to suddenly have intelligence, and they were highly cooperative with his design.

It's crazy, but Guff enjoys it.

After repairing old watches and old appliances for so long, he felt alive again, and the feeling of forgetting to sleep and eating, and having a steady stream of thoughts rushing into his brain every day when he opened his eyes, was so intoxicating.

The Enforcer's department met all of his raw material needs, and Ghoff realized that he was working on a project that could go down in history.

What makes him even more satisfied is that this time he doesn't need to look at anyone's face, and he can put all his ideas into the design.

The three days added up to less than four hours of sleep, so much so that when Lu Xiang saw this person again, he almost thought he was mentally ill.

Bloodshot eyes, a chattering tone, and a feverish smile.

That's how Gerf brought the new hornworm to her.

"First of all, it's the mini-float and push-type device."

His index finger stroked the hornworm's wings, and it opened its wings in unison, revealing the mechanical elements hidden beneath the wings.

It's hard to imagine this being a person who was so scared of hornworms three days ago that he was shivering.

"Hornworms have very limited flight capabilities, they don't fly so much like they fly, they move more like jumping, and the structure of their wings makes it difficult for them to stay in flight for long periods of time, but with this device, it gives them the ability to fly long distances across half a city – higher, faster, longer, and allows them to travel anywhere in a short period of time."

And that's just the beginning.

The electric current generator built into the pincers is a reference to the design concept of the mantis knife, which allows the hornworm to instantly paralyze the opponent when it cuts through the skin of its prey.

The bulletproof coating attached to the carapace makes them virtually immune to non-armor-piercing munitions.

Phantom installations, allowing them to blend perfectly into complex environments.

Listening to this whole process, Lu Xiang immediately thought of prosthetic implantation technology.

Guff applied the prosthetic implantation technology to the hornworm, allowing her to see a mutant creature with a prosthetic modification degree of more than 30%!

In fact, after transplanting so much equipment, it's hard to be defined as a living thing.

"The prosthetic implantation technology for hornworms is much simpler than for humans, their own vitality and healing ability are far stronger than humans, and the process is far less refined than military-grade prostheses, but the effect of these prostheses is no worse than that of military-grade prostheses, and compared with the real high degree of prosthetic implantation, they are only inferior to the fact that they cannot install operating systems."

Listening to Ge Fu's fanatical narration, Lu Xiang couldn't help but blush, because she couldn't help but think of the conversation she had with Song Lan one night.

She told Song Lan in a serious tone at the time, "Chai Ke's prosthetic implant degree is 21%, and many of them are black goods that cannot be bought on the market." ”

But it's only been a month, and the prosthetic implantation degree of a hornworm has surpassed that of Chai Ke.

With the continuous innovation of technology, if Chai Ke was not dead, he might be surprised to find that the high-level prosthetic body he had spent a huge amount of money might not even be able to defeat a team of modified hornworms, and the raw materials required to transform these hornworms were even much cheaper than the daily prostheses.

If measured purely from the perspective of combat effectiveness, arming a mechanized army of hornworms is much more cost-effective than training soldiers.

It was only now that she discovered the horror of Song Lan.

Even a not top-notch arms designer can realize the idea he proposed, but the biggest premise that these experiments have been extremely smooth so far is that Song Lan can control these horn worms.

In Lu Xiang's cognition, except for Song Lan, there has never been anyone who can be friends with mutant creatures.

Seeing that Lu Xiang didn't respond for a long time, Ge Fu thought that the other party was still not satisfied, and introduced it again, "In fact, according to my observation, hornworms do not need to be implanted with an operating system, their social composition and ideology are different from that of humans, they seem to be able to share the same brain in some way, as long as the hornworms gather to a certain scale, they themselves can achieve the effect of a simple system, in a small-scale battle, this is definitely enough." ”

This also means that these hornworms don't go crazy by transplanting too many prosthetics.

What Ge Fu did today was to make Lu Xiang satisfied with his research.

Because, he has fallen in love with this feeling of creation.

Now he is not designing a specific weapon, but creating an army with special significance, an unprecedented class!

Not everyone has the opportunity to participate in the creation of mechanized mutant creatures, and all his whimsical ideas are directly and effectively rewarded with these hornworms.

"Three days is still too short, but if I am given enough time, I can still study more."

"Your job is well done, as agreed, you were hired, and this is your department details and remuneration."

Lu Xiang took out a document and handed it to Ge Fu.

The results were far better than she had imagined, and the mechanical hornworms that Guff had created in the past three days were ready to be used in the fight against crime.

Previously, hornworms were mostly only used for detective purposes, but after implantation of prosthetics, they are now able to subdue a criminal syndicate on their own.

"I have a request."

Ge Fu stared at Lu Xiang with bloodshot eyes, "Just like these days, the department needs to provide me with raw materials for experiments." ”

"As long as it's within a reasonable budget, your requirements will be met...... Because of the special nature of the work, you can usually work from home. ”

After that, Lu Xiang took out a small glass eco-box from his bag, and there was only one shiny pitch-black hornworm in it, and the size of this hornworm was obviously larger than other adults.

"It's ......"

Gerf's eyes lit up, and he already thought of the identity of this giant horned insect.

"This is the king worm."

Lu Xiang said, "It can have some simple communication with humans, and if you need more hornworms to participate in research, you can communicate directly with it." ”

"Good, good, good!"

Guff said "yes" three times in a row to express his excitement at the moment, "If there is nothing else I want to go back first, I have some brilliant ideas in mind!" ”

He lifted the glass eco-box as if it were a treasure.

He didn't want to stay here for a moment, because there were more ideas waiting for him to come to fruition.

The ambition to devote himself to the arms design industry was once again ignited.

Compared with the same military production, this is what he really wants to do!
