The moment the "Hot Wheels" engine started, the blue light in the cockpit shone almost dazzlingly, and then went out the moment Tang Lang's nerves suddenly became tense.
The "Hot Wheels" engine with its protective mechanism stalled immediately! Then, the old man, who was still reciting poetry passionately, lowered his protective net and rushed over.
Fortunately, the mecha still had a spare energy battery, so Tang Lang was not locked in the mecha that was definitely malfunctioning and waiting to finish. He watched the white-haired old man use the mechanical arm to open the energy engine with the help of the automatic elevator.
He was busy for a while before climbing down again. Before Tang Lang could ask any questions, the white-haired old man took the initiative to explain: "I'm so old that I forgot that the "Hot Wheels" engine has 80% more power than the current engine.
, a small part couldn’t withstand it, and it directly fused, causing the engine protection mechanism to start automatically. It should be fine now.”
"Didn't you say it was only more than 40%?" Tang Lang was stunned.
"Nonsense, that's the technology from fifty years ago. Today's energy furnace technology is much better than before. Eighty percent is nothing! Originally, in my brain simulation, this engine should
It's better to be 100% better than your contemporaries. To prevent unexpected events, I lowered it to the lower limit of 80%." The white-haired old man glared.
"Teacher, are you sure the other parts can withstand it?" Tang Lang, who had experienced being a test pilot for the first time in his life, was determined not to be easily fooled again. He would never be fooled again without asking clearly.
He is a scientific little white sheep, even if he designed it himself.
Perhaps, what makes him most depressed is that he designed this thing! After a few random tricks, he deceived others, but he was the victim! Tang Lang swore that from now on, he must be down-to-earth and never
He always turned on the halo of the protagonist. It was all lies in the book. The attack just now almost blew him to ashes.
"Recipient of the Victory Medal! Can you stop being so timid?" The white-haired old man's eyes were full of ridicule. "This is a mecha specially designed based on the power of the "Hot Wheels" engine that I envisioned. It has various
The materials are all top-notch in the Federation, so what are you afraid of? If I hadn’t stayed outside to observe the engine data and the status of the mecha body, then it would be your little scumbag’s turn to be the controller of this epoch-making engine?”
"If you don't dare to go up, that's no problem. That little guy Chu Ming is pretty good too. I'll let him try." The white-haired old man looked at Tang Lang with squinted eyes. "Anyway, I designed this mecha, so I can give it to anyone you want."
Who to send it to!"
As the saying goes: Man dies for wealth and bird dies for food! Tang Lang always dreamed of having his own exclusive mecha. Although the mecha in front of him was still far from what he imagined, it was powerful enough and could barely satisfy his current needs.
Demand. It would be great if it wasn't so tall and mighty and so eye-catching when standing on the battlefield. But the war hasn't started yet, and Tang Lang still has time to modify it based on this mecha. Also, old man
The naming is really a bit useless. "Xiang Yu" is too flamboyant. Wouldn't it be more modest and low-key to create a virtual character like "Li Yuanba"?
So Tang Lang nodded immediately: "Then let me call Senior Chu Ming for you. I happen to have his contact information!"
Tang Lang is not stupid. The old man didn't say just now that he will be sent to the mecha test if he doesn't finalize the matter. Of course, the more important thing is that Tang Lang has already figured out why the old man has to do it.
He wants to be the experimental subject himself. He is holding back his big move, preparing to make a big splash at a certain time without making a sound. Before that, he will definitely keep it a secret, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.
"Bargaining, right? Do you know how many credits this mecha costs? Not counting the newly installed "Hot Wheels" engine and other materials alone, not counting my labor, it costs 50 million credits. If you add
Put on the engine, I said I wanted to sell it, the investment from the three major military industrial companies will definitely exceed 500 million credit points, and I will have to share it with you in the future, do you believe it or not?" The white-haired old man almost spit in Tang Lang's face.
"Hey, teacher, then sell it quickly, and the funds sold will be half of yours and half of mine." Tang Lang, who had already figured out the old man's purpose, was unmoved, and leisurely pointed out that he was also one of the designers.
, must pay dividends.
"You..." the old man was furious. "Then I will do it myself!"
"Okay, then let me record the data for you and let me witness this epoch-making moment!" Tang Lang immediately turned around and left without any delay.
"Okay, you are so cruel!" The old man grabbed Tang Lang with a look of pain on his face: ""Xiang Yu" was made with college funds. I can't make the decision for you without authorization, but I can promise you, as long as you can
Get the materials, and I can help you build a similar one. You have to believe that based on the success of the "Xiang Yu" test, I can do better, and I can also design a more suitable one based on your combat habits.
Mecha.”
"Deal!" Tang Lang quickly opened his personal brain and recorded the old man's words. He took his finger and pressed his fingerprints on the virtual screen and recorded his genes. That was evidence recognized by the federal court. If the old man
If he dares not to admit his fault, he will dare to hold a banner in front of the old man's villa, and his reputation as a senior academician of the Academy of Sciences is not easy to use.
As for money, Tang Lang didn't take it too seriously. Not to mention that the small energy valve could make money, once the current "Hot Wheel" engine was successfully tested, Tang Lang didn't believe that the Federal Academy of Sciences would dare to
Give money. If you dare not give it, Tang Lang will hold up the banner.
Okay! I don’t know if the white-haired old man would beat him if he knew Tang Lang’s “primitive” mentality of always pulling up banners. Anyway, Tang Lang had already jumped into the mecha on his own initiative.
The "Hot Wheels" engine has abundant and unusual power and runs extremely perfectly, but the test of placing it in the mecha was not as smooth as imagined.
Tang Lang was already considered the top master among the intermediate mecha masters, but he encountered a disaster on this experimental mecha. He either fell over while running at high speed, or "twisted his waist" during the emergency stop and turn.
.That is not to say that Tang Lang's mecha control level has been reduced, but that there is a problem with the matching of the mecha body itself and the engine power output.
The white-haired old man was indeed a big liar. In his brain simulation, he actually designed "Xiang Yu" with an energy engine that increased the power efficiency by 50%, but the excellent performance of "Hot Wheels" exceeded his expectations.
It is estimated that "Xiang Yu" is already the best mecha he has in his hands, so he can only reluctantly use this. It is like a car suddenly equipped with a tank's diesel engine. Tang Lang
Continuously falling over is nothing new.
Of course, apart from some problems with the cooperation between the machine body and the energy engine, the "explosion" problem that Tang Lang was worried about before has not appeared. In addition to being obsessed with research, the "Devil Professor" is not satisfied with himself at the moment.
The students put a big bomb on it.
The advanced laboratory was awesome enough and had all kinds of precious materials. Once Tang Lang had a problem with his control, he immediately stopped to communicate with Edward. Edward would either immediately correct the body or replace it with more advanced materials in the laboratory.
Apart from eating and taking a short rest, Tang Lang and Edward just immersed themselves in modifying "Xiang Yu" in the experimental field.
The seven-meter-high body gradually became 6.5 meters. The mechanical feet were enlarged by a full 20% to increase balance. The dual swords and single guns were retained. The original honeycomb-type Phalanx missile launchers on both sides of the belly were retained.
It is placed on the back. If necessary, it can be moved from the slide rail to the shoulder position for launching. The launcher with the ability to fire 12 missiles at a time is enough to beat a ninth-generation mecha with five-level armor into one.
torch. The four heavy machine guns have not been reduced, but increased to six. An added external magazine can provide up to 1,500 rounds of metal projectiles. In addition to the 600 rounds in the original design magazine, more than 2,000 rounds of metal live ammunition and six
The "Fire Dragon" heavy machine gun can emit a metal barrage that would scare even the 9th generation mechas.
Although it is not as tall as before, the mecha's weight has increased by 5%, its firepower has also increased by 10%, and its deterrence has not decreased but increased. And all of this is due to
The surging power of the "Hot Wheels" engine.
As the old man calculated, conventional power reached 180% of the current mainstream engines. When Tang Lang used Hot Wheels extreme power, the energy peak value of external monitoring even reached 220%.
From the first five seconds to ten seconds, Tang Lang lasted for more than thirty seconds. At that time, Tang Lang still wanted to continue, but the white-haired old man was scared and even ordered Tang Lang to stop.
"Damn it, are you crazy! It doesn't matter if your baby is killed, who will do my experiment!" The old man's anxious and pale face kept sputtering saliva, but it was not so annoying, but more interesting.
A touch of warmth.
"I know it's useless to say anything, but you have to remember that you are my student, Edward. Even on the battlefield, you can't die in battle!" The old man responded to his own with a smile when he saw Tang Lang's calm expression.
Anger is just a slight sigh after all.
In fact, both of them are very smart people in the world. They both know that they can't change the other's mind. Moreover, they are actually very similar in one thing.
For Edward, the unknown road to scientific exploration is his battlefield, and he does not hesitate to take his own life on this battlefield; but for Tang Lang, the battlefield filled with artillery fire and gunpowder smoke is his fate, where
, he also did not hesitate to sacrifice.
For what you insist on, you would rather break than bend! It is precisely because of this kind of sympathy that the person with the pen and the person with the gun have the opportunity to stand together like this.
Therefore, Tang Lang was willing to take huge risks to extend the limit time of the "Hot Wheels" engine again and again. That was because in the future he and his comrades would control their partners on the battlefield. If they did not test the limit value, it would be a mistake.
Everyone’s irresponsibility.
Even the white-haired old man still foresees sadly that even if this mecha is perfect enough, its shortcomings that it cannot overcome yet are destined to fail to become the main mecha of the Federation.
In order to match the powerful Hot Wheels, the materials required for this experimental mecha cost more than 80 million credits, which is more than 30 times the cost of an ordinary Qin warrior. Moreover, the powerful power also requires a large amount of energy sources.
With the support, the energy requirement of "Xiang Yu" is actually four times that of the Federation's main mecha, the Tang Warrior mecha. Once it is equipped with more than one mecha division, it will make the faces of federal logistics department officials turn pale.
However, Tang Lang judged from a soldier's point of view that as long as General Chang Sunhong did not act stupidly, the "Xiang Yu" class mecha would definitely become the standard equipment of the Federation's most elite mecha troops and become the main force against the Jipeng Royal Special Mecha Regiment.
Let’s see which army the Ministry of Military Affairs will give this honor to first.
Perhaps, the Storm Bear Mecha Regiment of the Southwest Military Region is an excellent choice.
Tang Lang was not a saint, so he naturally kept his wealth to outsiders! There was a position of captain and company commander reserved for him over there! The fat man was there too.
