Chapter 910: Mecha
After listening to Xu You's point of view, Luo Wenkun expressed some doubts.
"But, Xu You, they clearly wanted to use an asteroid to hit us before. Wouldn't that be a devastating blow to our civilization?"
"To some extent, this will indeed be a very serious blow, and may even lead to mass extinction of life, but it will not cause any fundamental harm to the planet. Another reason for this is to test our planet and test whether we really have an intelligent civilization."
Xu You analyzed the reasons in more depth with emotion without any subjective color.
Even though Luo Wenkun didn't want to believe this from the bottom of his heart, he had to admit that what Xu You said was indeed a relatively objective fact.
"Since this assumption exists, training mecha warriors becomes a meaningful thing. Of course, this does not mean that they can really pass through the defense circle we set up in the solar system. This is just a consideration to improve the plan and cover all situations. Just like the Wandering Moon Plan, it will never be truly implemented unless it is absolutely necessary..."
After confirming the feasibility of this plan, Xu You and Luo Wenkun discussed it further.
"We have always believed that mechas can be manufactured, but based on our previous evaluation of mechas, it is difficult for such weapons to appear on the battlefield. Mechas have their own shortcomings that are difficult to make up for, which makes mecha weapons always inferior to conventional weapons." Luo Wenkun said.
Xu You naturally knew these things. The most critical technology among them was to solve the material problem of the joints of the mecha.
Since the interior of the mecha is controlled by humans, the joints of the mecha must be bent during the execution of various combat missions.
It is these bending movements that make the material at the joints of the mecha appear extremely fragile, and will become the focus of enemy attack.
"Yes, I used to think that we could hardly solve the problem of the joints of the mecha. But now I have changed my mind. This kind of bendable and high-strength material actually has a chance to be manufactured."
Luo Wenkun was also stunned when he heard Xu You's words.
"Xu You, is there really such a magical material?"
"Yes, we have even made the materials for building a space elevator. This material is not completely impossible to manufacture. As long as we can solve the problem of this material, the combat power around Blue Star will be significantly improved."
Mechas have their own unique advantages. They can switch between the ground and the sky very quickly, which is irreplaceable by other weapons.
As long as the Proxima civilization covets the planet Blue Star, rather than wanting to completely destroy it, it will inevitably have to fight against these mecha warriors.
After listening to what Xu You said, Luo Wenkun has made up his mind to start research on mechas in the R&D department of Fulon Technology.
"Okay, Xu You, I'm going to start the project, and Fulong Technology will be responsible for all the project funds."
Now the market value of Fulun Technology has reached an unprecedented height. In addition to the value of the company, the resources that can be mobilized are an inestimable wealth.
It is no exaggeration to say that the current Fulun technology is more powerful than that of most countries in the world.
"Well, apart from the materials of the mecha, the company's R&D department should be able to solve the other parts of the technology. I will take the time to study this part of the technology, and then meet with the company's R&D department."
After explaining these things to Luo Wenkun, the two parties ended the call.
Based on the knowledge he had already mastered, Xu You quickly listed the various technologies that needed to be solved for the mecha, and sent the list of technologies to Luo Wenkun as a reference for project establishment.
Afterwards, Xu You thought about this matter carefully.
“Taking into account both the flexibility and strength of the material at the same time… this is indeed a problem that is not easy to solve.”
But soon, Xu You found a solution to the problem.
Previously, while conducting research on Martian cells, Xu You had studied a material that could pass electromagnetic waves in one direction.
This material is very special. Xu You had never thought that this material would really exist in this universe.
However, through this research, Xu You realized that his understanding of various subjects was not deep enough, and it also gave Xu You more new ideas.
"Oh, right, we can try using the quantum state of matter! There is a constant supply of energy in the mecha, which is enough to ensure that the matter is always in a quantum state."
Thinking of this, Xu You decided to enter the brain simulation state to study this new material.
After undergoing genetic modification, Xu You's brain was greatly enhanced, and his brain's simulation capabilities were also enhanced.
Soon, Xu You found the key to solving this technical problem and successfully simulated the model of the required new material.
"I see... As long as the material is kept in a relatively stable quantum state, it can simultaneously possess the two seemingly mutually exclusive properties of toughness and high strength!"
This special state is very strange, just like dividing the curve into countless parts when performing calculus calculations.
From a microscopic perspective, each point is just a small square, but from a macroscopic perspective, the whole is a very smooth curve.
It is this wonderful property that allows this material to possess these two somewhat mutually exclusive properties at the same time.
After finishing the simulation, Xu You organized the structure of the material into the computer and conducted further research.
…
After many days of hard work, Xu You and the scientific research team of Fulun Technology successfully produced the first batch of mechas for testing.
The speed of the entire research was astonishingly fast. The main reason for this was that Xu You very quickly developed this new material that could be used in the joints of the mecha, making the entire mecha completely free of any weaknesses.
The mecha team of Fulon Technology also played a crucial role.
This means that Xu You does not need to conquer various technologies one by one. He only needs to lead the project at a macro level and solve some key technologies.
After arriving at the testing site, Xu You decided to test the mecha first.
"Wen Kun, I am the chief designer of the entire mecha project and the person who knows mechas best. It is most appropriate for me to be the first to test it. What's more, my body is strong enough. Even if the mecha has an accident, I will definitely not have any problems."
Xu You now has almost immortality, which is the source of his confidence in himself.
This time, Luo Wenkun did not try to persuade Xu You anymore , but let Xu You start the test with confidence.
"Okay, Xu You, go ahead and test it. We have implemented all the safety measures very well, so I won't worry about these issues."
In addition to these, Luo Wenkun's trust in Xu You's research results also made Luo Wenkun feel at ease to let Xu You be the first to conduct the test.
At this time, Lu Zhiyao and Lin Shi were also standing in the testing venue, ready to watch Xu You's test results and decide whether to participate in the next test based on the situation.
After talking to Luo Wenkun, Xu You came to the center of the test site and put on the mecha with the help of the staff.
Putting on the whole set of mecha is not too complicated. If necessary, Xu You can put on the mecha by himself.
However, this is the first time to test the mecha after all, and Xu You still hopes that everything can be carried out as required.
After putting on the mecha, the mecha was officially started up, and Xu You felt himself gradually becoming one with the mecha.
There is a special nervous system in the mecha that can form a connection channel between the mecha and human nerves, allowing people to control the mecha very accurately and quickly.
In addition, the human brain also forms a brain-computer connection channel in the head of the mecha.
As long as the mecha operator is familiar enough with the mecha, there will not be much difference between the mecha and the human body.
Xu You tried to perform simple controls on the mecha, and soon he became very familiar with it.
The reason why Xu You was able to control the mecha so quickly was that, on the one hand, Xu You participated in the core design work of the mecha and was very familiar with it in theory.
On the other hand, Xu You now has very high brain power and excellent physical coordination, and can adapt to new things very quickly.
Seeing Xu You's mecha moving its body, the humans around him screamed.
"Look, Master's Wife, the teacher has already started controlling this mecha. I want to take part in the test later."
Lin Shi said beside Lu Zhiyao. Looking at Lin Shi’s expression, you can tell how much she desires this mecha.
The expression on Lu Zhiyao's face was much calmer, but in her heart, Lu Zhiyao, like Lin Shi, was full of desire for this mecha.
"Lin Shi, after Xu You finishes the test, let's join in the test. With our abilities, we should be able to adapt to the mecha robot quickly."
Lin Shi didn't expect Lu Zhiyao to have the same idea, because Lu Zhiyao was not as outgoing as Lin Shi usually was. This time, she overturned Lu Zhiyao's usual image.
"Okay, okay, then we'll just wait for the teacher to finish the test."
While Lin Shi and Lu Zhiyao were talking, Xu You had already completed his familiarization with the mecha and was about to prepare for the formal test.
Xu You activated the flight button of the mecha, and it suddenly took off into the air and flew in the test area.
This made everyone at the scene scream in surprise again.
"Xu You... actually tested the flight function of the mecha directly. How bold of you."
Looking at Xu You wearing a mecha and flying in the sky, Luo Wenkun could not help but be amazed.
In theory, only if you are familiar enough with the mecha can you perform procedures such as flight operations. Otherwise, it is very likely that the mecha's self-protection system will be activated due to lack of proficiency in operation, and the system will deprive you of the mecha's operating authority.
But looking at the way Xu You was flying in the sky, he didn't look like he had just been operating the mecha for a few minutes. Instead, he looked more like a mecha veteran with several years of operating experience.
At this time, Xu You was like an eagle, soaring freely in the space, and attacking some simulated targets with his weapons from time to time.
According to the data displayed by the system, Xu You's attacks on the target were very efficient. Not only was the power controlled just right, but the accuracy was also maintained at an extremely high level.
"The process of driving a mecha... is really very comfortable."
Feeling this wonderful feeling, Xu You couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Xu You had ridden on various flying equipment and spacecraft, but he had never had such a feeling.
This is because when driving a mecha, one can feel that one's body is completely integrated with the mecha, and there is no feeling of driving a weapon device.
Inside the mecha, there is a small nuclear reactor specially designed for the mecha, which can provide the mecha with almost endless power.
This was also the technology that Xu You had accumulated when he was studying nuclear physics, and now it could be used on mechas.
"Full marks! Xu You got full marks on his first test!"
Looking at the data displayed by the system, Luo Wenkun couldn't help but be surprised.
In order to test the mecha, various simulated opponents were set up throughout the testing area.
Depending on how well the tester hits these opponents, the system will give a corresponding score.
In just the first test, Xu You scored full marks without a doubt and was given an outstanding rating by the system, which made Luo Wenkun feel incredible.
After finishing the test, Xu You landed steadily on the ground, started the disarming procedure of the mecha, and walked out of the mecha .
During the entire testing process, Xu You did not feel that he had expended too much energy, because as long as the human body could maintain a very high degree of compatibility with the mecha, the process of using the mecha would not be much different from the normal state.
"Teacher, you are really great. You got full marks on the test for the first time!"
Lin Shi couldn't wait to tell Xu You about his results, but Xu You looked calm after hearing it.
"Wenkun, the mecha's test system needs to be optimized. These tests are indeed a bit too simple."
This feeling is like a top student getting a perfect score in an exam. It's not because the top student has the ability to get a perfect score, it's just because the full score is only 100.
