Chapter 445 The real pilot, the mecha is me, I am the mecha
!
Xu Mingguang's trip there was in vain, but when he returned home, he had an unexpected surprise.
"The mecha has been sent back?!"
Lu Yuan got off the hovercar and learned the good news from the butler Victor who came to greet him.
Lu Yuan suddenly became happy and said quickly: "Take me there."
Victor responded, and Lu Feng followed behind like a ghost.
Lu Yuan has been waiting for this moment for a long time. The more he becomes proficient in controlling mechas in the game every day, the more he longs to touch a real mecha in reality.
In the process, he even understood why Xu Mingguang was willing to risk serious injury or even death to go into the meteorite full of high temperature and radiation to pick up meteorites, just because Lu Qiyuan promised to give him a look and feel a real first-level meteorite.
Mecha.
In an era when the starry sky had not been opened and the level of technological development was not that advanced, there were still so many people around the world who were crazy and obsessed with a certain car or model of car.
Not to mention a combat mecha that is countless times more powerful than a car in every aspect.
For Xu Mingguang, who aspires to become an energy mechanic, it is not surprising at all that he would do such a crazy thing.
Who would be willing to be a dog licker if they didn’t really like it?
"Didn't it take at least a month to repair it?"
On the way to check on the mecha, Lu Yuan asked Victor casually.
Calculating the time, it's still quite a month away.
Victor replied: "Yes, but the master has ordered a new one for the young master, and it happened to be delivered today."
“Ordered a new one”
The journey was a bit unexpected.
The cheapest first-level mecha on the market costs more than 50 million. If you want to carry out a certain degree of optional modification according to personal special requirements, the price can easily be doubled.
If he remembered correctly, Lu Qiyuan's original mecha cost over 100 million.
Now that the old one has not been repaired, Lu Lingfeng bought a new one.
Should he say that the Lu family has a strong financial background or that Lu Lingfeng really dotes on his only son?
Soon Lu Yuan arrived at the hall of the house. Victor didn't waste any time and had people quickly bring up the things that had been prepared.
A black box with a very high-quality material. It is not big. There is a blue falcon pattern with minimal lines printed on the surface of the box.
Just like the original ones, they are all from the Blue Falcon series of first-level mechas.
Lu Yuan opened the box and saw a palm-sized thing like a mobile phone quietly embedded in the box.
This is a space device specially used to store mechas.
Duoling's space technology has developed to a quite mature level, and space devices are widely used in various fields.
Some large-scale vehicles or engineering equipment only require a small space capsule, which is small and light, making it easy to carry.
"It has been checked in advance and there are no problems. The young master can bind it directly."
Victor said from the side.
Lu Yuan nodded and followed the process step by step, inputting fingerprints, voice, facial and genetic information into the space device in front of him.
After completing the binding, he looked around, thought for a while, and simply released the mecha from the device in the hall.
"boom!"
Accompanied by the not pleasant but unique smell brought about by the special smelting technology, a dark blue humanoid mecha more than six meters tall and slender appeared in front of Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan's eyes bloomed with light, quietly admiring this, which was the first combat mecha in his life.
After watching for a while, Lu Yuan gradually discovered that the mecha in front of him seemed to have some differences in appearance details from the familiar Blue Falcon III mecha in his memory.
He looked at Victor next to him and asked, "Isn't this Type 3?"
Victor smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is the latest Blue Falcon Type 4, and its performance is better than Type 3 in all aspects.
It was just launched last month, and the price is 30% more expensive than Type 3."
Cheap dad is really interested
Lu Yuan could not help but sigh in his heart.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan noticed something else and couldn't help but frown.
"Why are the weapons of type 4 not quite right? They seem to be inferior to the ones that come with type 3?"
Lu Yuan pointed to the two one-handed long swords inserted in the back of the mecha and asked Victor.
The material and style of these two mecha long swords obviously don't match the overall mecha. They don't even have sword edges. They look dark and like two oversized fire sticks.
"This is what the master meant"
Victor said helplessly: "Because the young master secretly had a duel with someone in private last time, in order to prevent similar things from happening again, he specially customized these two training weapons from the manufacturer.
Without any attack enhancement, the weight of a single long sword is five times that of the normal Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha's sword."
""
Lu Yuan was a little speechless.
He had just finished praising Lu Lingfeng in his heart when he gave it to himself.
In order to prevent myself from getting into trouble again, I simply pulled out all my teeth and claws, right?
I really have you, Lao Lu.
Fine.
It doesn’t matter if the road is far.
Considering Lu Qiyuan's bad record in the past, he said a few words in vain, Lu Lingfeng could do this well, what more could he ask for.
Lu Yuan casually put the mecha back into the space device, and said hello to Victor, "Thank you father for me."
Then I couldn't wait to go upstairs to study the new toy I just got.
Victor smiled and watched Lu Yuan go upstairs, and then looked at Lu Feng silently.
The latter turned around and left expressionlessly, walking through halls until he came to a certain room.
Knock lightly on the door and step in quietly.
In the quiet study room, Lu Lingfeng stood with his back to him in front of a bookshelf that was almost connected to the ceiling, slowly wiping an antique long sword inlaid with gems in his hand.
"Has Qiyuan seen the mecha?"
"yes."
"How did he react?"
"I'm glad to say thank you."
"oh?"
Lu Lingfeng's face showed a bit of surprise, and he said amusedly: "He actually said thank you to me."
Lu Feng did not answer, but briefly reported to Lu Lingfeng what happened today.
"Xu Mingguang"
After hearing this, Lu Lingfeng frowned slightly and said, "Does he want to cause trouble for that boy again?"
"It's not like that."
Lu Feng shook his head, "It's more like he really has something to do with the other party."
"Help me keep an eye on him. I just took care of the Xu family, don't let him cause any trouble again.
Once the storm of this matter has passed, I will let him do whatever he wants to do."
Lu Lingfeng gently placed the cleaned antique sword on the shelf in front of him and said calmly.
"Oh, by the way, Qi Yuan should go out less during this period.
There hasn’t been a terrorist attack in District 15 for many years, and the one that was attacked was the Imperial Hospital.”
Lu Lingfeng's eyes grew colder, "What are these bugs hiding in the dark and believing in evil gods trying to do this time?"
Lu Feng stood quietly on the spot, his face unmoved, and the huge room gradually became quiet.
"It should be the Ram alloy material mentioned on the Internet, and it is also the most commonly used manufacturing material for first-level mecha fuselages."
In the spacious mecha control room, Lu Yuan gently tapped the ankle of the Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha with his hand, and heard a rather thick dull sound.
On the distant home planet, Lu Yuan once shot through the fuselage of the eighth-level god-level mecha "Ice God" of the Far Star Federation with his bare hands.
Relying on memory comparison, he suddenly discovered that although the rigidity of the "Ice God" mecha body was higher than that of the Blue Falcon in front of him, it was still only as strong as the one in front of him.
The body hardness of his Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha is probably higher than the seventh-level Sky-level mecha on the home planet.
Although the hardness of the fuselage cannot be completely equated with the defensive power of the mecha.
But one is level one and the other is level seven.
The gap in forging technology between the two is literally a galaxy apart
"The only mecha that can fight against mechas is Duoling. It would be very difficult for me to tear the mecha apart with my bare hands."
Lu Yuan sighed a few words, then opened the cockpit of the mecha and jumped in.
"Brain wave detection"
"Gene testing in progress"
"Binding successful."
After another round of tedious and complicated binding operations, I had been lying in the cockpit for a full five or six minutes, and finally I could start to control it.
Although I have been driving mechas on the mecha virtual battle platform for several days before.
But when I actually tried it, I found that the difference between the game and real-life operation feels is quite big.
When Lu Yuan's mental power was successfully connected to the operating core of the Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha, masses of translucent liquid began to emerge around the cockpit.
These liquids enveloped Lu Yuan's entire body, making him feel like he was in a water balloon in a weightless environment.
This is a special fluid prepared specifically for mechas, which can better protect the pilot's relatively fragile body.
"Sprint forward and backward to dodge attacks"
With gaming experience, Lu Yuan’s operation is not unfamiliar.
He tried to control the mecha and performed a series of basic actions, and suddenly discovered a very serious problem.
——
His mental strength is not enough!
"In less than ten minutes, my mental energy is almost exhausted. I'm in the game, in the game."
Lu Yuan suddenly thought that he could finish the game in as little as five minutes or as quickly as three minutes. After exiting, the status would be reset, the "blue bar" would be full, and he could quickly get into the next battle.
So much so that he never realized it.
A first-level mental power controls a first-level mecha, and the state cannot be maintained for long.
"This is still not a fierce confrontation. If it is a battle, the control time of the resonance skill will definitely be greatly reduced!"
"hiss--"
Lu Yuan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and felt a trace of strength all over his body accelerating the recovery of his mental power.
That's an additional effect of the special liquid preparation.
It extends the pilot's control time, helps the recovery of the status, and has a healing effect when necessary.
"Supersonic instant kill!"
When he was almost recovered, Lu Yuan controlled the Blue Falcon mecha and dashed through the space with a flash, leaping out tens of meters away like a teleport, and then stopped steadily on the ground.
"Huh-huh-"
Lu Yuan adjusted his breathing and checked the data feedback.
"Seven times the speed of sound is okay, not much different from the game"
This move that Lu Yuan secretly changed to "Supersonic Instant Kill" is naturally the mecha resonance technique Supersonic Frequency Conversion Step derived from the spiritual power training method of "Rhythm of Wind".
The implementation of the resonance skill in reality was relatively smooth, but the consumption of mental energy also made Lu Yuan frown.
"This directly consumed nearly half of my mental energy. If in a battle, if this move cannot kill the opponent instantly, wouldn't it mean that I will be slaughtered by others?"
Lu Yuan's original idea was to use mechas to fill the gap between his strength recovery, but now he found that controlling mechas in battle was not as easy as he expected.
"With my current mental strength, if I explode with all my strength, I will probably be completely exhausted in two minutes.
Although due to the concurrent training of "Type Zero", if the energy of one mental core is exhausted, it can still be switched to another core.
But the total combat duration is estimated to be no more than five minutes.
In five minutes, this mecha will transform from a combat weapon that helps me kill enemies into a huge and cumbersome burden."
Lu Yuan frowned, five minutes of combat time was really too short.
He can't guarantee that all battles can be completed within five minutes.
Moreover, after five minutes, it will take a long time to recover the mental power.
"We can only practice hard and increase our mental strength as soon as possible."
The cockpit door opened, Lu Yuan stood up from the driver's seat with his eyebrows rubbed, and the concoction slowly slid down his body like mercury.
The first-level mental power is really too weak.
Thinking back to the last time his mental power reached level one, it seemed like a long time ago.
I remember that at that time, he was still working hard to break through the martial arts master and transform his will.
Just as he was thinking about Lu Yuan, he was about to jump off the mecha and go to the quiet room next door to meditate and recover.
But just when he was about to take a step, suddenly
A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.
"etc"
Lu Yuan looked at the brand new Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha standing beneath him, and an unprecedented idea came to his mind.
"If the process of controlling the mecha through the core of the mecha with mental power is removed, and the loss of the secondary transmission in the middle is eliminated, then the mental power will not be as insufficient as it is now, right?"
Lu Yuan stood there for a few seconds, then quickly leaned over and gently pressed his palm on the fuselage of the Blue Falcon Type 4 mecha.
After a moment, he took back his hand and slapped his forehead hard.
"It seems to be possible. I'm so stupid. Why didn't I think of it in the first place?"
As we all know, pilots need to use the core of the mecha to control the mecha.
The pilot first transmits an instruction to the mecha core through mental power, and then the mecha core sends this instruction to the fuselage, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the operation of the mecha.
It is precisely because of this process that the pilot will have a delayed response when controlling the mecha, and the concept of "mecha resonance" appears.
Lu Yuan's idea is to directly eliminate the link of mecha core transfer processing.
For others, this is naturally impossible.
The core of the mecha is the link between the pilot and the mecha. If the link is gone, there is no point in controlling the mecha.
Unless you advance to the Star Lord realm and refine the mecha into a native mecha, there is no need to spread the link.
Under the Star Lord realm, no matter how talented a super pilot is, he cannot achieve 100% resonance with mechas.
However
The road is far different.
"Just turn the mecha into a part of my body.
If the arm directs it, why is there any need for an intermediate link for secondary transmission?"
And this seems to be possible with the [Devouring] skill on the [Soul-devouring God Demon Species (Super Mythical)] career panel.
"The innate ability of the Soul Devourers is that in addition to devouring flesh and blood energy, they can also devoure various metal materials.
The former is to strengthen one's own life source and advance to a higher level of life.
And the latter is to refine the most powerful natal demon weapon belonging to the Soul-Eating Clan!"
Lu Yuan's eyes burst out with a strong sparkle, and a unique temperament circulated around him.
Demonic weapon.
The Demonic Soldiers of the Soul Devourers.
"The Great Fallen Black Sky Ten Prison Demon God Machine"
He read the name word by word.
He has not forgotten that in the final battle in the secret realm of the ancestral land, "Andusha" summoned the terrifying power of the legendary demon robot of the soul-devouring clan.
It's just a hasty refining, just a prototype. No, it's not even a prototype.
After "Andusa" arrived, it devoured the accumulated materials along the way, and it was only enough to refine one hand of the "Great Fallen Black Sky Ten Prison Demon God Machine".
But just such a palm gave Lu Yuan and Yu Wentong the terrifying pressure as if a demon had come in person, covering the sky with one hand, and the doomsday catastrophe was rolling down.
The twisted sun that tears apart the void, the demonic hand that covers the sky
Even when I think about it now, I still can't help but feel shaken and have lingering fears.
"Swallowing the Blue Falcon mecha whole, and controlling it as my body after fusion, not only can it solve the problem of insufficient mental power, but I can also directly use the body of the mecha to use various abilities of the [Martial Arts Grandmaster].
Means and skills
In a short period of time, my combat effectiveness can be greatly improved.
There is no need to practice step by step like others."
Lu Yuan had great expectations in his heart, and without any delay, he was about to begin the devouring and fusion of the Blue Falcon mecha.
But before taking action, he paused again.
“It’s better to unlock the profession first and then devour it.
Otherwise, once the devouring process begins, the Blue Falcon mecha will not be able to be used until it is completed. If you want to unlock pilot-related professions, you will have to delay it again."
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan didn't care that his mental strength had not fully recovered, jumped directly into the cockpit, and continued to control the mecha.
He controlled the Blue Falcon mecha to practice the "Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Style" passed down by the Lu family.
The [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Style] swordsmanship that was awkward in the human state suddenly became smoother when used in a mecha.
The two one-handed training swords specially made by Lu Lingfeng were really bulky and incompatible with the swift and agile style of [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Stream].
But while Lu Yuan was practicing, he felt inexplicably taking advantage of it.
As he practiced, he even had an idea in his mind for no reason.
"It would be nice if there were two axes."
Once this idea came up, the [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Stream], which originally followed the light and spiritual route, gradually began to evolve in another direction.
Lu Yuan tried to correct it several times.
Later, I discovered that forcing corrections only made the movements stiff and blocked, and lost the smoothness before, so I simply let my instinct drive me and started practicing according to the feeling of wielding double axes in the eight-armed Shura form.
I practiced and revised at the same time. After a good skill in [Wind Spirit Sword Shadow Style], it didn't take long for it to become completely different.
I don’t know how long I have been practicing, but finally
[Congratulations on unlocking a new profession—pilot!]
Unlocked?!
Lu Yuan immediately stopped what he was doing and called up the career panel to check.
Sure enough, there were only two career panels left now with one more - [Pilot (Extraordinary)] lv1 (13/100)
Only one skill named [Basic Melee lv1 (65/100)] is lit on the panel.
The experience value is not low, and it has almost reached level 2.
"Okay, now we have a stable way to earn skill points and attribute points."
Lu Yuan looked at this panel and felt slightly satisfied.
Then, without resting, he lay down in the cockpit of the mecha and started to devour the mecha.
When the lv1 [Swallow] skill was activated, Lu Yuan's body gradually melted like water, and his whole body turned into a pool of viscous black liquid, which continuously seeped into the entire mecha.
As the first part was devoured, a red warning light lit up in the cockpit, and then the number slowly increased.
Before that, Lu Yuan specially cut off the automatic call for assistance function running in the background of the mecha. Otherwise, as soon as something went wrong here, the maintenance technician from the manufacturer of the Blue Falcon mecha would come to the door.
If Lu Lingfeng knew that he would break the new mecha he just bought on the first day, his right to use it would have been confiscated.
In the process of devouring mecha parts, Lu Yuan saw that the experience value behind his [Swallow] skill continued to grow.
Moreover, on the main panel of [Spiritual Devouring God Demon Species (Super Mythical)], with the [Swallowing] skill as the origin, two upward-extending progress bars appear.
The one on the right is rising slowly, and soon exceeds the progress on the left, leaving it far behind.
"Do these represent the two directions of devouring advancement?
Or do they represent two different unlocking routes for the skill tree?”
Lu Yuan secretly guessed.
No matter what, the super-mythical career panel finally started to move, which was good news for him.
The swallowed part of the Blue Falcon mecha turned into the same liquid as Lu Yuan's body and merged into his body.
Generally speaking, there are two ways to deal with this material.
One is to absorb the components that are useful to oneself and melt them into cells, which can be used to enhance the strength of the flesh and blood body.
So much so that in the later stages, the physical bodies of the Soul Devourers are often extremely powerful, no less powerful than many powerful races in the universe that are good at physical bodies.
The second is to preserve this part of the material and use it to refine the Demon God's mecha.
Lu Yuan is now using the second processing method, which is to save the materials swallowed from the Blue Falcon mecha, melt them into his own flesh and blood, and then fill them back in again.
To put it simply, you "eat" it in first and then "vomit it out".
As soon as he entered and exited, the hard mecha parts became part of Lu Yuan's body.
"I just need to remember the structure of the Blue Falcon, just remember the appearance. No one else can see what's inside the mecha anyway."
When it's time to fight, I will directly transform my body into the Blue Falcon Type 4, so others will still think that I am 'controlling' the mecha inside."
"Is this a different kind of transformation?"
"False pilots practice operations assiduously and strive to improve resonance, in order to achieve a deeper integration of man and machine.
A real pilot starts from the integration of man and machine. The mecha is me, and I am the mecha!
Every move, every move, every move is a resonance technique!"
