Chapter 162: Giant Mecha
Emerging from Tokugawa Jiro's luxurious cabin, Saori Tokugawa returned to her room and watched as Lieutenant Colonel Brown helped her pack up her salute.
Tokugawa Saori had no concept of these daily necessities since she was a child, anyway, in the imperial palace of the Imperial Capital Star, as a princess, she has never lacked anything. Even if there is something she thinks she wants, someone from the Internal Affairs Office will do it immediately, and she doesn't need to worry about it at all.
Although after graduating from the military academy, Tokugawa Saori, who left the palace to live alone, did not have the support of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the Vilia Empire has never been stingy with military spending, not to mention that Tokugawa Saori is also an officer of the Imperial Army, so in terms of material needs, the logistics support of the Imperial Army can fully meet the daily needs of Tokugawa Saori. Besides, as a royal princess with the title of king, even if it is only a small rank of lieutenant colonel, but in the officer system of the imperial army, even if she is the commander-in-chief of the group army, she doesn't care about snubbing her Tokugawa Saori!
But Saori Tokugawa herself never cared about these things, and she never paid attention to these small cosmetics to large clothes and other daily necessities. Anyway, she usually wears a military uniform, and all daily necessities are uniformly distributed by the Logistics Department of the Imperial Army. Although she is a royal princess, her usual food is no different from that of an ordinary lower-level officer of the empire. At most, there were a few things that had been brought out of the palace, but they were given to her by her father or relatives in the royal family, and she never cared about it.
Originally, after leaving Tokugawa Jiro's luxurious cabin, Tokugawa Saori was going to take a cargo spaceship back to the Imperial Capital Star immediately, but Tokugawa Jiro said that such words really did not match her identity, and insisted that she stay and wait for the next spaceship, a spaceship dedicated to transporting the visiting families of the imperial nobles to and from the Imperial Capital Star.
Due to the rules set by the founding monarch of the Vilia Empire, titles from earl to earl level could only be hereditary or granted by the emperor himself, and could not be bought or sold. Therefore, the officers above the major rank of the Vilia Empire are actually from some of the old big families among the nobles of the empire. Because only they can get these titles that can't be bought with money for future generations to share. It is also for these reasons that the treatment of officers in the Vilia Empire is not a little more generous than that of a democratic country like the Setan Federation!
From this, one can imagine how luxurious and extravagant it must have been for the Vilia Empire's passenger spaceship to transport passengers from the Imperial Capital to and from the front line!
Although Tokugawa Saori didn't care about this, and even some people who couldn't get used to the arrogant, arrogant and lascivious corrupt character of those children who came out of big aristocratic families, but considering the face of the royal family of the Vilia Empire, she still had to accept Tokugawa Jiro's suggestion in the end today.
Saori Tokugawa understood that Jiro Tokugawa wanted her to return to the Imperial Capital Star in a glamorous manner.
First, Tokugawa Saori has returned from the frontline of the Saitan Federation battlefield to the high-profile return of the Bass Star, and will show the Imperial Family and those big nobles the successive victories of the Blood Wolf Legion and the advantage of the current battle situation, and try to gain the support of those big nobles of the Empire as much as possible!
Second, Tokugawa Saori followed the families of those noble officers of the Blood Wolf Legion back to the Imperial Capital, which was also conducive to Tokugawa Jiro establishing a positive image of him in the circles of the great nobles of the Empire, in order to gain more support and love from the nobles of the Empire, which was also a foreshadowing for his future accession to the throne.
In short, everything that Tokugawa Saori now appears in front of the public of the Vilia Empire, Tokugawa Jiro thinks that there can be no negligence and mistakes! He now tried to make Tokugawa Saori the second image of the Blood Wolf Legion in the aristocratic circles of the Vilia Empire, after himself. Just imagine, Tokugawa Jiro was originally a prince who was loved by many great nobles, and he ranked second in the order of succession to the throne, as long as Tokugawa Taro died and hiccup, he was the natural heir to the crown prince, and then became the heir to the throne, and one day there will always be a day when the enthronement ceremony. At that time, the nobles who have praised Tokugawa Jiro today will of course be rewarded by Tokugawa Jiro, and those opponents who have fallen into the ground at this moment will be liquidated by Tokugawa Jiro! Dynasties and dynasties, nothing more than this!
Now Tokugawa Jiro is in the synchronous orbit of Basel, and he eats and lives on the warships in the fleet every day. In the eyes of outsiders, he is a conscientious imperial prince who is fighting for the interests and glory of the Vilia Empire, so he has to always think about establishing his glamorous image to deceive the world, and even the current Vilia Emperor Tokugawa III. So now Tokugawa Saori, who is on the same big ship with Tokugawa Jiro, has naturally become a business card for Tokugawa Jiro to promote his martial arts to the nobles of the empire!
People in the aristocratic circle of the Vilia Empire know Tokugawa Saori, the most restless and willful imperial princess since she was a child. In the past, because of Tokugawa Saori's deviance and casual personality that never paid attention to aristocratic etiquette, he never liked the nobles of the empire, especially those who had the title of duke, none of them liked Tokugawa Saori. And no one in the royal family of the Vilia Empire would like Tokugawa Saori, because they all felt that she didn't have the appearance and consciousness of being a nobleman at all. Some members of the Imperial Family even believed that Saori Tokugawa's maverick behavior had discredited the Imperial Family, and she was not worthy of being a member of the Imperial Family.
And now that Tokugawa Jiro has repackaged Tokugawa Saori and let her appear in the aristocratic circle of the Veria Empire with a new look, it will naturally cause quite a stir! This is not only to let those nobles re-accept Tokugawa Saori, but also to let the people of the imperial family, especially the current Emperor of the Ville Empire, Tokugawa III see that he Tokugawa Jiro is still a very skillful and courageous imperial son, not those gossip rumors in the aristocratic circle, he Tokugawa Jiro is just a flashy royal gentleman.
For this unusually high-profile return, as far as Tokugawa Saori is concerned, it was actually very disgusting! She has hated red tape and posturing since she was a child! But now Tokugawa Saori can't openly tear his face with Tokugawa Jiro, and openly oppose his seemingly flashy, as if acting-like arrangements, after all, the current Tokugawa Saori has been trying to keep herself low-key and low-key, she doesn't want to take the lead in the imperial family and aristocratic circles of the empire for the sake of Tokugawa Jiro, and she doesn't want to offend those royals and nobles at this very sensitive time in the war, so she can only silently accept all this Tokugawa Jiro's arrangement for her now, A grandiose and very high-profile return to the Imperial Capital Star.
An hour later, accompanied by Lieutenant Colonel Brown and several of Tokugawa Jiro's close aide-de-camps, Saori Tokugawa boarded the luxury ship for the families of the Imperial Army officers and nobles to travel between the Barcelona front line and the Imperial Capital, and flew all the way to the core of the Vilia Empire, the Imperial Capital.
At the same time, near the outskirts of Doha City on the planet Basel, Tom held Bai Jie in one hand and operated the test machine No. 2 in the other hand to fly into the air for a while and then land on the sand for a while, following the six big-bellied mechs in front of him all the way forward, and it seemed that he was about to leave the edge of the destroyed interstellar city energy defense system in Doha City.
In front of the huge steel support system that was destroyed by the missiles of the Vilia Imperial Army spacecraft in the last tragic space blockade battle, Tom and Bai Jie couldn't help but sigh at the same time for the inhumanity of the Imperial Army, as well as endless sympathy for the millions of ordinary citizens of Doha who died unjustly at that time.
Seeing that the six strange big-bellied mechs in front of him were about to pass through the row of huge steel pillars that had been burned and bent, and were about to leave the boundary of Doha City and enter the no-man's land, Tom finally saw a giant mecha with a height of more than 20 meters on the electronic telescope of the mecha!
Truth be told, Tom had never seen a giant mech like this! Generally speaking, the standard mecha in the military of any country in the universe international has the largest dead weight and the highest body is some heavy fire support mecha. For example, the Demon II heavy three-person mecha of the Saitan Federation has a height of more than 8 meters. There is also the Fuji III heavy three-person mecha that is customary to the mecha unit of the Vilia Imperial Army, with a height of 8.7 meters and a weight of 70 tons! As for the Tiger Ben III heavy four-person mecha independently developed and designed and produced by the Gloria guerrillas, it is more than 9 meters tall, which is already a very amazing number!
As far as Tom knows, with the exception of those industrial mechs that are used for a small number of professional purposes in some special factories and mines, and those that work in the giant spaceyard, the average military mech will not exceed ten meters tall! Because once the height of the mecha's body shape exceeds ten meters, it will bring a series of technical problems. For example, the energy and nuclear power of the mecha, the energy transmission and force of the various joints of the mecha, as well as the speed of action and agility of the movement, etc., a normal mecha designer or research institute would not plan this kind of giant mecha with a body height of more than ten meters, let alone the giant mecha that has metamorphosed to a height of twenty meters that appears in Tom's line of sight now! This simply doesn't meet normal mech design and build specifications!
But the giant mecha had now really appeared in front of Tom, and he and Bai Jie sat in the cockpit of the test plane 2 and marveled for a while, and soon had to accept this reality.
It shouldn't be counted as a mech at all, it's a steel fortress that can be moved around at will! Judging from the data uploaded back from the onboard radar of the current test machine No. 2, the movement speed of that mecha is still quite fast, at least reaching the action speed of the heavy military mecha installed by the armies of some space countries! In other words, the mecha design and manufacturing technology implied in the giant mecha in front of it has exceeded the research and development level of military mecha in various countries in the universe today, and it is not even a little bit! If any cosmic nation has mastered the research and development technology of this giant mecha, then the heavy mecha installed by their national army will be invincible in the universe! Under the cover of a sufficient number of light mechs, and aided by well-equipped medium mechs, their mech units will be invincible in any space war!
Although Tom was surprised at this time, he still quietly hid behind the six pot-bellied mechs, followed the pace of the enemy mechs from a distance, and followed them all the way to the unknown destination.
Because the search range of the radar scanning detector on the test machine 2 is several times that of ordinary mechas, relying on this advantage, Tom drove the test machine 2 to hide behind the mechs of the wild boar society, and they have not been detected. This natural advantage that others can't see you, but you can easily and clearly grasp each other's every move, sometimes reminds Tom of the pleasure of cheating on school exams without being discovered by the teacher!
Or is it because all the satellites of Basel in space are controlled by the space fleet of the Vilia Imperial Army's Blood Wolf Legion, and there is no base station that can relay wireless signals in the no-man's land, so whether it is a mecha marching in the no-man's land, a car, or an interstellar city shuttle, the effective use range of the electronic equipment carried in their fuselage is greatly reduced, and some functions cannot even be used normally. And some barely usable functions, such as the functional range of the radar scanning detection system, have been shortened from the normal two or three thousand meters to two or three hundred meters, and even when the wind and sand are blowing the most violently, even the detection range of two or three hundred meters cannot be reached!
But Tom forgot that the giant mecha in front of him, which was more than twenty meters tall, contained the science and technology that had long surpassed this era of cosmic colonization. In fact, that perverted giant mecha, like the test machine No. 2, is a technological product beyond the current era, and they should not have appeared in this era in the first place!
In the cockpit of that giant mecha, on the radar virtual screen in front of Lord Hades, eleven Wild Boar Society mechs that were following it had already appeared, ten Boar Guardian mechs and one cargo mecha! And behind these eleven Wild Boar Mechas, there is a short mecha in the distance! It can be seen from the mecha computer of Hammer No. 1 that after the image screening of the computer system, the unknown mecha model and place of ownership have not been found! In other words, it was a mysterious mecha that had not been recorded by any cosmic country within the scope of the universe internationally!
Master Hades, sitting on the main console of Hammer One, was staring at the radar virtual screen, watching the mysterious mecha trailing in the distance running wildly on the sand, and then flying into the air to desperately shorten the distance it was running away from the eleven boar mechas.
Hades was very surprised to realize that the strange mech that had followed his Boar Guardian mechs all the way here was actually a flying mecha that he had never seen before!
Although he is often proud of having a super giant mecha with cross-era technology, when Hades sees the flying mecha tracking behind him, he can't help but leave greedy saliva!
At this time, Lady Nicole, the current No. 2 head of the Boar Society, also poked her head out from under the iron chair. She licked the slime that had just been shot off the side of her mouth, and asked Hades with a smile, "Honey, what are you looking at?" Such a fascination! ”
Hades let out a wry laugh and said, "I think I saw a flying mech!" ”
"Flying mechs? How is this possible? In amazement, Mistress Nicole got out from under the iron chair, snuggled up in the arms of Mistress Hades, and ordered the female lieutenant in charge of radar communications below to maximize the image of the flying mecha, and then observed it carefully.
After watching it for a long time, Lord Nicole licked her lips and said to Lord Hades: "My most beloved Lord Hades!" Should we stop for a moment and grab the flying mech behind us before continuing back to Fort Harden? ”
Master Hades hugged Nicole and kissed her, and said with a smile: "You really want to go with me!" I'm really eager to catch that weird mech that seems to be flying! We can take it back to Fort Harden with its driver, dismantle them all, and study them carefully! ”
Lady Nicole was enjoying a kiss from Lord Hades as she smiled, "If all of our mech units are equipped with the ability to fly, our mech troops will be invincible!" When the time comes, not to mention a small Black Tiger Club, even the Barcelona Star will all be ours! ”
"Yes, my dearest Lady Nicole!" Hades smiled wryly, and then ordered the mecha lieutenant who controlled the power system to temporarily stop Hammer One's pace and stop in place.
Soon, the ten wild boar guard mechs that had fled here all the way with the traces of Hammer One's operation, as well as the cargo mecha, finally all ran in front of the giant mecha of Hammer One.
The bald man in the lead simply and quickly reported to Master Hades about the ambush of the Gloria guerrilla armored company, and told them how they had been attacked by a mysterious ghost-like mecha and had not completed the general annihilation of the guerrilla armored company. Throughout the debriefing, the bald head of the leader trembled, for fear that he would anger Lord Hades and Lord Nicole beside him at any time.
But the bald head of the leader never imagined that the ghostly and mysterious mecha did not think of letting him go for a moment, but actually followed him all the way to this place with his men, and found the tall and sacred Hammer One, which Lord Hades was riding in, which seemed to him to be both tall and sacred!
