Chapter 181: Mechanical Right Arm

It's a small, run-down village.

A few thin zombies sat at the entrance of the village, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on these zombies, motionless, as if they were dead.

Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound of engines, and a number of cars slowly appeared.

The zombie raised its head, let out a ho-ho roar, and stood up, heading towards the sound.

A tall figure suddenly jumped out of the car, and he swung his giant axe, throwing a shockwave.

Poof!

The zombies were all shattered.

Several cars scattered in an instant.

"Everybody go check it out! See if there are any zombies left! ”

Yang Changhong's voice appeared on the walkie-talkie.

"Yes!"

The crowd got out of the car and went from house to house with weapons in hand.

Wang Tao and the three of them also got out of the car and quickly checked around.

"I'm okay here!"

"I don't have a problem here!"

"No problem......"

The inspection was soon over, and the crowd reunited in the square in the middle of the village.

Yang Changhong beckoned everyone to start camping and setting up defensive measures.

By the time everything was ready, it was already dark.

Everyone gathered around, and after a simple meal, they looked at the five drop boxes in the middle.

Before opening the airdrop, Yang Changhong whispered beside Wang Tao:

"How did you know there was an airdrop today?"

"I can tell fortunes."

Wang Tao said with a smile.

He wasn't going to tell him about contacting Colonel Luo, so he had to keep some secrets.

Seeing that Wang Tao didn't want to say it, Yang Changhong glanced at Wang Tao in a charming way, so she didn't ask any more.

Then she coughed, and waved at the crowd with anticipation and excitement.

"Open the drop box."

Like the previous drop box, a password is required to open it, but this password is a simple arithmetic problem that anyone who can read and write.

Wang Tao was not too excited, and he was still recalling the contact he had with the pilot of the airdrop plane this afternoon. He felt that he would pay more attention to the next plane in the future, and try to contact him a few more times......

Click~

Under everyone's watchful eye, the first drop box was opened.

Looking at the five boxes of inhibitors inside, everyone was so happy that they almost jumped up.

There are 20 bottles of inhibitors in one box, and 100 bottles in five boxes!

100 bottles of inhibitors! That's enough to save many lives!

With these things, you don't have to be as scared as you used to be!

Yang Changhong took out all these inhibitors and distributed them to everyone. There are 13 of them, plus 3 Wang Tao, a total of 16 people.

Including Wang Tao, 3 people, each of them was divided into 5 bottles, and the remaining 20 bottles were kept by Yang Changhong, which means that Yang Changhong took 25 bottles alone.

Wang Tao was a little surprised, but he didn't expect the three of them to have a share. After all, as it was said before, whoever gets it first will go to whom.

As for Yang Changhong taking the most, that's normal. The boss will definitely take more.

In the last days, it cannot be said that there is no meaning in such things as equal distribution of materials and equality for everyone, but it can only be said that it is difficult. It's better to concentrate resources on the head and create a powerful boss.

There is also a monster illustrated book in this airdrop, Yang Changhong took a look, this is the same as what Wang Tao showed her, so she didn't look at it much, and passed the illustrated book to others.

Then she turned on the second airdrop.

Inside the second airdrop is an instrument.

"What is this? Nucleosynthesis? ”

Everyone was a little curious, they had only seen the crystal nucleus synthesizer, but this thing was a little bit different.

"This is an energy detector, after being put in the blood, it can check whether humans are infected with the virus, how many impurities are in the body, and what is the energy level......"

Wang Tao explained aloud.

The Mizusawa base got an energy detector before, but the appearance is a little different from this, and this should be an improved version.

"Energy Detector!"

Yang Changhong's eyes lit up.

She hurriedly searched for it and found a manual inside.

Sure enough, it is similar to what Wang Tao said, this is an energy detector.

However, this does not require blood, but just a random body tissue, such as hair, nails, skin chips, etc., which is much safer and less troublesome than putting blood. However, it is said that the human tissue put in must be dropped within a few hours, and it is not allowed for a long time.

This is much easier than before. But the energy problem has not been solved, and a lot of electricity is still needed.

Of course, compared to the crystal nucleus synthesizer, this energy checker consumes a lot less power.

Yang Changhong was ready to give it a try, she couldn't afford the power consumption of the crystal nucleus synthesizer, but the power consumption of this energy checker could barely be used.

So, Yang Changhong immediately took the wire and started the energy detector.

Buzzing~

The detector vibrates slightly, and the green indicator light on it lights up, indicating that it is ready to use.

Yang Changhong plucked out one of his own hair and put it into the detection port of the instrument.

Moments later, the small LED screen on the instrument showed the information.

[Energy: Tier 2]

[Impurities: Grade 2]

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's it? ”

Yang Changhong was suddenly a little disappointed, she thought that she could detect a lot of data, but she said a second-order energy and second-order impurities.

Regarding these levels of impurities, she has also read the instructions, the second level is still within the safe range, the third level is slightly dangerous, the fourth level has a certain danger, and the fifth level is extremely dangerous!

"Wang Tao, why don't you give it a try? Don't worry, you won't be charged for electricity! ”

Yang Changhong suddenly looked at Wang Tao and said.

Wang Tao shrugged his shoulders and did not refuse, he pulled out a hair and tried it.

[Energy: Tier 2]

[Impurities: Grade 1]

The energy is also Tier 2, but there are fewer impurities in the body than Yang Changhong.

Wang Tao is a matter of second-order strength, and Yang Changhong has already told his teammates, so everyone is not too shocked.

But Wang Tao's body has only one level of impurities, which makes everyone very curious. Obviously, they are all second-order abilities, why are the impurities in Wang Tao's body lower than Yang Changhong?

Then Wang Tao asked Xu Xiaojun to try it again, and he, like Wang Tao, was also a second-order energy and a first-order impurity.

Yang Changhong saw this scene and opened his mouth silently.

Wang Tao has few impurities in his body, but Xu Xiaojun has so few impurities in his body? This is not scientific! When she fused the crystal nucleus herself, she was very cautious. That's just the accumulation of so many impurities......

Then there is only one possibility, Wang Tao's luck is very good, or they got a lot of crystal nuclei! They are all synthesized with purple or higher crystal nuclei, and the failure rate is very low!

Yang Changhong was a little envious. The impurities in the body can't seem to be eliminated, just like a time bomb. If there are too many impurities, I don't know when I will become a zombie......

Wang Tao didn't know what she thought, he looked at Jiang Shixue, who was a little eager to try, and hurriedly pulled her back.

Wang Tao was not worried that Jiang Shixue would expose his strength, he was worried that Jiang Shixue's impurities in her body would scare the other party.

After all, she is 100% impurities in her body, and if this shows a level 5, then it is estimated that everyone will not be able to sleep well tonight.

Yang Changhong asked everyone else to test it again, they are basically first-order abilities, so there are not many impurities, they are all level 1, within the range of what they can bear.

Yang Changhong asked people to keep this instrument, and she opened the third drop box.

This drop box contains a variety of medical medicines.

It's still the same as before, everyone gets some. She left a little more on her own.

The fourth drop box is full of all kinds of food, compressed biscuits, energy bars, and the like.

Looking at these foods, Wang Tao's eyes lit up.

You will definitely feel tired of eating these things often, but it is still good to eat them once in a while, so you should improve the taste.

The fifth airdrop box, this is also the airdrop box that Wang Tao got.

According to the previous agreement, whoever gets it is whomever bes. The first four are all Yang Changhong's, and this one is Wang Tao's.

However, Wang Tao is not a stingy person, if it is food and medicine or something, he doesn't mind dividing some of it.

He asked Xu Xiaojun to open the box, but after seeing the contents inside, everyone was stunned.

"Huh? What is it? ”

Inside the box is a ...... A black robotic arm?

To be exact, this should be a mechanical exoskeleton arm!

However, this robotic arm is larger than Wang Tao expected, because it not only needs to be tied to the arm, but also part of it needs to be tied to the shoulder and waist. Otherwise, one arm alone will not be able to exert force.

Wang Tao looked at the manual.

Sure enough, this is a product of the Hope Institute, and they say it's a mechanical exoskeleton left arm powered by electrical energy.

This robotic arm increases the user's strength a lot, making it great for close-quarters combat and carrying cargo.

But there is a flaw, that is, the energy consumption is relatively high, with the current battery situation, at most one hour of battery life...... Moreover, the instructions say that this is a semi-finished product.

After research, the Hope Research Institute found that the energy in the crystal nucleus was abundant, and they wanted to make a mechanical exoskeleton that could use the crystal nucleus as an energy source.

But alas, they haven't made much progress on crystal core energy at the moment.

The complete version of their plan is a full-body exoskeleton that uses crystal nucleus energy.

So now this exoskeleton that uses conventional electrical energy and has only one arm is a semi-finished product.

The reason why there is only one arm is not because it can't be made, but because it consumes a lot of energy. When there is electricity, it is very labor-saving, and when there is no electricity, it will become a burden. If you get a full-body exoskeleton, you won't be able to walk when you run out of electricity.

Wang Tao put it on and tried it, and then was a little speechless.

This thing is still useful to others, but to him...... It's chicken.

The first is that it affects his dexterity, which is a far cry from winding roots.

The second is that although there is indeed a power bonus, this power bonus does not mean how much numerical power is directly added to Ling, but it requires the muscles of the whole body to cooperate in order to exert this power.

The greater the strength and the better the physical fitness, the more convenient it is to use.

If the strength is small and the physical fitness is not good, then the user will punch down, maybe the power of the punch will be great, but the user himself may plant a heel.

Although Wang Tao's physical fitness is very good, using this exoskeleton arm to fight will seriously affect his speed. Although his strength increased, his speed decreased, which was actually a negative boost for him.

In the end, of course, it is the battery life.

After the robot arm is activated, I don't feel uncomfortable. But as soon as the power was turned off, Wang Tao instantly felt that he was carrying a lump of things on his shoulders. While this weight doesn't hurt him, discomfort is for sure.

And when he wanted to move his arms, he felt very jerky, like a robot, and it was a little uncomfortable......

Of course, this is not to say that this mechanical left arm is useless.

First of all, this material, I don't know what kind of metal it is, although it is a bit heavy, but it is not only hard, but also has a certain toughness! Too rigid and easy to break, this material has both hardness and toughness, and it is simply for fighting.

And then there's this battery, I don't know what black technology is used, this battery is not big. Portability is still good.

Finally, it is the way the right arm of the machine is charged - as long as it moves, it can be charged. I usually walk and run or something, but I can fully charge it. Of course, it can also be plugged in and charged normally. So in terms of supplementing electrical energy, it is quite convenient.

"Xiaojun, you come and give it a try."

Wang Tao took off the left arm of the machine and let Xu Xiaojun try it.

Unexpectedly, what Wang Tao was not used to, Xu Xiaojun was particularly easy to use.

As the saying goes, one force breaks ten thousand laws. This is the case with Xu Xiaojun now. He's big and powerful. So his strength is greater than Wang Tao.

As long as you have enough strength and weigh a lot, the side effects of wearing this robotic arm will be very small, or even completely unaffected.

Moreover, Xu Xiaojun is not a speed-type ability, which will not affect his flexibility and speed - because it is not fast in the first place.

"Since you have no problem using it, then give it to you."

Wang Tao shook his head and said.

He can't use this thing, and Jiang Shixue can't do it, with her small physique, it will be very difficult to fix this exoskeleton. So only Xu Xiaojun is more suitable.

"Good!"

Xu Xiaojun was not polite this time, because he could also see that Wang Tao was really uncomfortable using this thing, and he himself was very comfortable using it.

Wang Tao told Yang Changhong about the use of this mechanical right arm, advantages and disadvantages. Although it is impossible to give them this thing, it is still okay to tell them some information.

Everyone was originally very envious, after all, this was a thing that could enhance combat power, but after listening to Wang Tao's use experience, they suddenly didn't envy it anymore - they didn't have Xu Xiaojun's physique, if this thing was on them, it would probably become a burden.

Wang Tao also deliberately asked Yang Changhong to try it too, and everyone saw with their own eyes that Yang Changhong's expression changed from curiosity and excitement to slowly becoming loveless.

"No, I'm really not fit for ......"

Yang Changhong hurriedly returned the things to Xu Xiaojun.

She's not good at power, she's good at speed. This mechanical arm was worn on her, and it was a great weakening for her.

"If only it were a full-body mechanical exoskeleton...... But energy is another big issue...... But it's good to be able to do this now, and I hope I can really figure out how to use the energy in the crystal nucleus later! ”

Wang Tao looked at the mechanical right arm that was re-worn by Xu Xiaojun, and he touched his chin and muttered to himself.

After all the airdrops were processed, Wang Tao chatted with Yang Changhong alone about the ability. After all, Wang Tao promised to give Yang Changhong a crystal nucleus, but he had to understand what her ability was first.

"I have three abilities. Actually, I originally fused four, but I passed on one ability to someone else......"

Yang Changhong's words made Wang Tao suddenly a little curious.

"Passed on to someone else? Can you tell us more about how it was passed on? ”

Wang Tao knew that he could inherit the ability when he was promoted, but he hadn't seen it yet. Yang Changhong was the first one he saw, so he wanted to know the specific situation.

"I can't tell, but I felt like I could pass it on at the time, and then I grabbed the other person's hand and passed it on...... After passing it on, I suddenly felt a lot more comfortable......"

Yang Changhong frowned and explained to Wang Tao.

After Wang Tao listened, he thought about it silently.

According to Yang, she fused four abilities, each of which was +10, but only one used the Promotion Nucleus. Just like Wei Zhenguo before.

There was danger at that time, and she didn't have time to wait for the second promotion crystal nucleus, so she directly used one crystal nucleus to promote.

After she was promoted, she felt that she could pass on the second-tier ability to others, and then she passed it on.

After the inheritance, she felt that the energy in her body seemed to be a little less, and it was not clear how much, but it must be less anyway. And her strength has also decreased a lot, after all, she lost a second-order ability. But she felt comfortable......

Wang Tao observed, after her inheritance, she should be missing 1000 blue, because she is now 3200 blue, if her abilities are +10, then this blue amount is right. As for how comfortable she feels, it is naturally because some impurities in her body have been eliminated.

But after the Legacy, there was one thing that made her feel badβ€”she found that she couldn't fuse Tier 1 abilities anymore!

That's why, although she has quite a few first-order crystal nuclei, she doesn't continue to fuse new abilities.

"Second-order abilities can't fuse first-order crystal nuclei?"

Wang Tao frowned.

Because he felt that he himself seemed to be able to continue to fuse the first-order crystal nucleus? Could it be that he is also different from others in terms of fusing crystal nuclei?

But he hasn't tried it yet, and he's not 100% sure.

"I'll have to go back and see ......"

After all, whether or not he can fuse the first-order crystal nucleus is related to his ability upgrade plan.

"By the way, who did you pass on your abilities to?"

Wang Tao was a little curious, she actually passed on her only second-order ability...... This is true love!

β€œβ€¦β€¦ My sister. ”

Yang Changhong spoke a little melancholy.

"You have a sister? Then she ......"

Wang Tao raised his eyebrows.

"Missing...... In the danger we encountered before, I went to lure away the zombie and let her run first. But by the time I fled the danger and went back to her, she was gone. I've been looking for a long time, but I haven't been able to find it. Later, I met a group of survivors who suggested that I go to Bauhinia City. Because the survivors in this vicinity are going to Bauhinia City as much as possible, I heard that there is a survivor base there......"

Yang Changhong looked very sad.

In the last days, disappearance is almost the same as death.

However, after all, her sister is an anomaly, or an anomaly who has received the inheritance of a second-order superability, so it's really hard to say whether she is dead or not.

"She's going to be lucky."

Wang Tao comforted.

"Borrow your auspicious words ......"

Yang Changhong smiled bitterly.

"Tell me about your abilities."

Wang Tao said again.

"My three abilities right now, the first of which is to increase a certain speed for duration; The second is that I can hide my own breath, so that it is not easy for zombies to find me; The third one is that it can make the weapon in my hand vibrate at a high frequency......"
