Andy stood on the stage to greet everyone's attention, and Elder Brixley spoke of the honor she was going to bestow on Andy.

"I hereby announce the promotion of Andy Arendall, and with immediate effect he will become a chivalrous knight of the Brotherhood of Steel."

There were some voices of surprise from the audience, followed by applause.

Seeing that Andy was a little confused, Brixley immediately explained to him.

"The Chivalrous Knight is an honorary title, and according to the notes on the Code, this title is reserved for outsiders who have made outstanding contributions to the Brotherhood of Steel, and is treated in the same way as the Knight internally."

"You can get some knight's equipment later, a set of combat armor and a laser rifle, I think we have a T-45 power armor in our warehouse that can be assigned to you, of course.... It seems to be a little broken, I hope you don't mind. ”

"Then, chivalrous knight, invincible!"

Andy hurriedly stood upright, learning Elder Brixley's movements and bowed back.

"Invincible!"

After Andy returned to his seat, Elder Brixley moved on to the next topic.

"We have one last important thing to say, and that's about the Ring of Steel."

Her gaze turned serious.

"Everything they've done so far has been a serious violation of the Code, whether it's an internal coup d'état they've carried out, or a defection with their equipment, or even... Poisoning me, all of this means that their minds are incorrigible, and I hereby announce that starting today, Fort McSon's relationship with the Ring of Steel has become hostile, all of their members will be erased from the record, all their identities will no longer be recognized, and we will attack once their location is discovered. ”

Elder Brixley bowed solemnly.

"Invincible!"

Everyone in the room stood up, and the sound was deafening.

"Invincible!!"

........................

"Invincible, chivalrous knight!"

A soldier shouted loudly, startling Andy.

"Oh oh, okay, invincible...."

Elder Dison led Andy to the main armory, where the huge metal barrier door was finally unlocked after Isaac's simple input, and inside were rows of weapon racks, with a dazzling array of heavy weapons and related items, such as accessories, ammunition, and other items, neatly placed in this room.

Andy saw a very handsome rocket launcher, but Elder Dison didn't stop there.

Andy saw another very powerful plasma rifle, but Elder Dison didn't stop there.

Eventually, they came to a heavy weapon of energy.

The thing looks almost like a giant silver cube metal case, the front half is openworked, and a metal tube can be seen inside, the back half is closed, with a handle inlaid in the middle, and a grip at the back that can be held with one hand, with a small screen in front of the grip and a raised lid on the side, which appears to be a groove for the battery.

"Let me introduce you to it."

Elder Disson, wearing T-51 power armor, reached out and removed the heavy energy weapon from the weapon rack and held it up in mid-air.

"Ub-fried-3000, fully automatic shooting mode, more powerful than the early hK-L30 bullet capacity, a real rare goods, a real military weapon, whether it is a long distance, medium distance or close range has a terrible suppressive force, using electronic charging pack ammunition, this consumption may be a little higher.... Ahem, we don't have a lot of ammo, but I can give you some. ”

Elder Dyson put the laser machine gun back on the shelf.

"Of course it's heavy, so I recommend you go get your power armor first and then come back..."

Before the words fell, Andy had already grabbed the big dick in his hand and watched it twist left and right.

Elder Dison twitched, wondering why a human could move with such a heavy thing in the flesh.

"What a terrible power, you're just... Then there are the weapons and armor that will be dealt to you. ”

He removed another laser rifle from a nearby shelf, then pulled out a silver-gray piece of combat armor from a case.

Andy took it.

After viewing two new pieces of equipment, combat armor can be worn outside Hull to increase defense, this is very useful, although Andy is not particularly fond of using rifles, but if it is really not good, you can also take it to change the bottle cap, of course, this can not be known to the people of Fort Maxson....

"Okay, then I'll go first, and then you go to the armor depot at level 1 to find the scribe chief to get your power armor, and you can't win the battle!"

Andy contentedly put the laser machine gun into the beep boy, and then felt a slight weight on his body.

Fortunately, it's still within the affordable range.

He then made his way to the armor depot on Level 1, where he saw Isaac and Edward chatting about some technical topics.

"Hey! I'm here to claim my power armor! ”

Isaac stopped talking to Edward and turned his head, and instead of immediately taking Andy to find his power armor, he began to talk to Andy about the various precautions that he had to know before driving the power armor.

"Don't worry, tell me if you've used this equipment before?"

Andy shook his head repeatedly, he'd never seen a Marauder using power armor except for members of the Brotherhood of Steel so far, and he hadn't even seen it a few times, let alone tried it himself.

Isaac admonished solemnly.

"Power armor is not easy to drive, it can even be said to be difficult, even if the insiders of the Brotherhood of Steel can still be injured during training under the premise of being exposed to it since childhood, it's not that no one has paid a serious price for some misoperation, I believe you would definitely not want to be one of them, right?"

As soon as Andy heard him say this, he realized that he had thought things simpler.

"So, what should I do?"

Isaac thought about it and made a training plan for him on the spot.

"You have to start learning from 0, the first step is to learn how to adapt to the control of the internal power servo, accurately make the power armor move in the direction you want it to move, the second step is to understand the use and function of various electronic devices inside the power armor, the third step is to learn to maintain the whole set of equipment, and learn how to respond to various emergencies."

"It will take about a week to half a month to complete this training program."

Andy's face was bitter.

"This.... Isn't it a little too long? ”

Isaac had a look of disdain on his face.

"There are talented people who can maneuver the power armor flexibly in three days, but I don't know if you're that kind of person, although you have a beep boy, and using this Rocco gadget can help you control the internal electronics more easily, but you definitely won't stay in Fort Maxson for long, what would you do if you took the power armor out and had problems of one kind or another? Throw this precious piece of equipment in the wasteland? In that case, you won't have a chance to get another one. ”

Andy scratched his head helplessly and decided to accept this training program.

Isaac asked Edward to manipulate the forklift to remove a T-45D power armor suspended in mid-air, and it stood quietly on the ground of the armor depot, like a humanoid metal robot that had turned off and bowed its head slightly.

"The virtual training device won't be able to be repaired for a while and a half, and you won't be able to take shortcuts, so I'll teach you in the most traditional way."

He made a request to take the first step.

"First of all, check the external parts before entering the power armor, especially to check whether the power armor has a fusion core, otherwise the power servo and all the electronic equipment will not be able to start because there is no power supply. Later, when you enter the driving space inside the power armor, you will find that the space is relatively narrow, which is deliberately designed to ensure the accuracy of the power servo's reception of limb movement signals. When you move, you may feel uncomfortable due to the internal environment of the power armor, because your whole body will feel friction, vibration, high temperature during the movement, and some people will also have serious psychological discomfort or physical reactions. ”

"You need to take off all the armor on your body, for reasons I don't need to say, unless you want to be squashed inside, and then I suggest you change into this outfit."

He pulled out a familiar-looking silver-gray hooded jumpsuit, a lightweight, floppy but resilient suit with metal contacts on the joints of his limbs.

"This is a protective suit specially designed to help the driver drive the power armor, which can isolate friction, vibration, high temperature, radiation, and can also enhance the sensitivity of the power servo to the input of your limb movement signals."

Andy was thinking about taking Hull off when he heard a voice in the back of his neck.

"I can provide all these functions~"

Andy listened as he took off the fur cloak he was asking for in Azqi, the trench coat he was wearing had been wiped out in the explosion.

"Can this one of mine achieve the same effect?"

Isaac took one look, and then his eyes began to straighten.

"Ahem...."

Andy coughed twice before Isaac returned to normal, but his eyes still looked at the unique lined armor from time to time.

"I think it should be fine, you can try it... But your power armor still needs a little repair work before it can be used, the power servo on your left leg is malfunctioning, the armor on your chest may need to be repaired, and the headlamp seems to need to be replaced..."

"Until then, you can try it with someone else's."

He asked Edward to operate the forklift and remove a T-45 power armor, which was visually better than Andy's.

Andy followed Isaac's instructions and opened the protective cover to insert the fusion core, then unscrewed the ring valve on the back of the power armor, and stepped into it after the power armor was opened, embedding his entire body into the inner space.

With a thud, the power armor collapsed.

Andy tried to move, feeling that his movements became difficult, even shaking his head became extremely slow, and the power servos everywhere needed to receive signals from the sensors before they began to provide movement assistance, so the movement in the power armor became very delayed, and Andy felt very uncomfortable for the first time.

He keenly felt that if he moved casually in the power armor, in the worst case, it was very likely that the muscle sprain or even dislocation fracture would be caused by this delay, and in the better case, it might be difficult to move, conflict or even fall to the ground.

Hull's voice came from the back of his neck.

"The power armor is detected, the adaptive function is activated, the device connection is complete, and the motion correction model is turned on."

For a moment, Andy felt that the delay of the twisting was immediately greatly offset, although the movement was still very slow compared to the physical body, but it was much better than before, I believe that without Hull's help, it would take time to fully adapt to this set of action patterns.

This change was also seen by Isaac, and he sighed in shock.

"Oh? You've only been on the plane for five minutes and you're on the move? You try to run. ”

Andy began to try to control it in power armor to run in circles in the armor, first jogging, then gradually accelerating, and finally so fast that Andy felt that he could almost catch up with the atomic Humvee.

The heavy power armor made a loud metallic thud as it ran, and the ground shook like an earthquake from its trampling.

Isaac looked scared, if Andy lost control of his running direction and hit someone, he was afraid that he would send that person directly to the road to heaven.

"Okay, okay, that's enough, I know you've got the hang of it, stop!"

Andy slowly stopped, although he was running inside, but after the initial initial stage passed, the running completely turned into power armor and ran with him, running was not effortless at all, almost as long as he wanted to run, but he also saw that the pointer on the power instrument panel displayed on the side of the eyepiece in the helmet was moving quickly to one side.

It seems that while this kind of running does not consume much energy from the driver, it will quickly drain the power supply of the fusion core, and once it is fully used in the short term, it will take some time for the fusion core to regenerate power for power armor use.

"Come down, I've got something for you."

Isaac tells Andy to pull the button on the inside of the power armor glove to open the power armor and leave it.

Andy tried a few times, and felt like his fingers were cramping, and then Hull helped him again.

"You can control it by voice~"

Andy immediately entered the command verbally, and the power armor immediately opened from the rear, and he climbed out of it, and after leaving, the power armor automatically closed again, and the valve behind it slowly rotated and locked.

Isaac pulls out a book and gives it to Andy.

"You can read this book, and then return it to me, learn how to maintain the power armor in the future, and if you study carefully, you can at least solve some minor problems."
