Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 16 Exoskeleton Robotic Arm

A few days have passed since the Piltover Council sanctioned the Odilenk family.

In these days, apart from how to celebrate the Evolution Day, what the citizens are talking about is the story about Patriarch Odilenk committing suicide in fear of guilt after failing to kidnap the eldest lady of the Gilaman family published in the "Piltover Daily" .

In fact, even Karina herself never expected this to happen.

Originally, she just wanted to use an excuse to suppress this family that was jumping up and down every day, but she didn't expect to hit the wrong way, and directly took their entire family into one pot.

However, she was very happy to see this situation, and even spent money to sponsor the newspaper to make them report widely to maintain the popularity, so as to deter other people who dared to oppose the Gilaman family.

Although the kidnapping case planned by the Odilunke family has come to an end, Li Lin, who realizes that he is still powerless in the face of a crisis, is not content to be satisfied with the status quo.

In order to improve his ability, he specifically asked Caitlin to conduct comprehensive training for him.

How to use various firearms, combat training, physical training, hunting skills training...

In just a few days, with the help of the [Mechanic] panel, he successfully acquired new skills:
[Gun Mastery] and [Basic Fighting] fully increased his combat rating by 2 points!
Although it is better than nothing, at least it can make him less at a loss when facing some threats before he grows up.

In addition, in addition to daily training under Caitlin's supervision, Li Lin's mechanical research did not stop.

After the parliament that day, Mrs. Karina specifically asked him about new weapons.

In order to win the support of Gilaman's family, Li Lin specially handed over the design drawings of the Hextech revolver to her.

Fortunately, Mrs. Karina is not a static person, and she is very flexible.

Knowing that this kind of weapon needs to use Hextech crystal as the core of its function, she gave Li Lin a large sum of money without saying a word, asking him to further improve the design of the pistol as much as possible.

At the same time, she is also sending people to contact the Philos family, hoping to reach a cooperation with them in the application of Hex technology crystals, which is currently under negotiation.

In the northern part of Piltover, the clock on the top floor of the Ecliptic Bank Bank chimed for the third time.

On the top floor of the side house of Gilaman's house, in Li Lin's studio, he and Jess were discussing something.

"Is this what you call an exoskeleton mechanical arm?"

Jess stroked his smooth chin lightly, and looked at the mechanical device on the shelf that looked like a hex augmentation prosthesis with a puzzled expression.

This black power arm is made of alloy and countless small mechanical gears. Its appearance is smooth and its structure is not complicated. The contracted state is not much different from the size of a normal human arm.

In addition, there are many gear grooves on the back of the hand, which are reserved for loading and unloading specific tools in the future.

Jace could see that if the robotic arm had a power supply, it might fit perfectly on a human arm.

At first glance, this design concept is actually quite good.

But Jess always felt that this thing coincided with the image of something in his mind...

After thinking for a long time, he finally realized, isn't this the Atlas glove invented by Kerwin Levik? !
"What's the difference between this and the Atlas gloves that miners often use?" Jess reached out and touched the mechanical power arm.

"That's a huge difference." Li Lin slapped his hand away, and took out a unique revolver from the drawer.

Jess gasped, and took several steps back, "Hey! Calm down, don't I just want to touch it? As for directly touching the guy?"

Li Lin gave him a look of caring for the mentally retarded, and a piece of blue Hex crystal shard came out from the position of the original revolver of the revolver.

"This is... my crystal shard? Why is it in a revolver?"

"Eh? You don't even know?" Li Lin looked at Jess in surprise, and suddenly said: "Oh, it's normal not to know, Mrs. Karina won't let this matter be revealed."

"Secret what? It's so mysterious that even I don't know about it?" Jess approached again, "Is this a new weapon you invented? You can also use hex crystal fragments as the core..."

He picked up the revolver and looked at it carefully, and immediately figured out its principle. He was extremely shocked and said: "My God! You actually designed an energy weapon?!"

What's all the fuss about, even if I don't design it now, someone else will invent it later.

Li Lin shook his head slightly, ignoring Jess, "There is still some energy in it, which should be enough."

As he spoke, he opened a small cover at the wrist of the mechanical power arm, and put the crystal fragments into the groove.

Suddenly, the entire mechanical power arm suddenly lit up, and there was a "click" sound of metal bite and rotation, as if it had come to life.

The blue energy of the crystal fragments is dissociated in the energy transmission line in the arm, driving the mechanical gears to rotate and separate at high speed.

After a while, it more than doubled in size from the original.

Li Lin put his right hand into the extended position of the mechanical power arm, clasped the tops of the five mechanical fingers with his five fingers, and then slowly clenched his fist.

As the gears rotated again, the parts of the mechanical power arm flashing blue light were put together again, and fit perfectly and seamlessly on his right arm.

If it is seen by ordinary people who do not understand HexTech, they will think that he has replaced his arm with a HexTech enhanced prosthesis.

When Li Lin put on this powered arm, the panel in his mind also gave all the attributes of this piece of equipment:
[Exoskeleton mechanically powered right arm (inferior): A wearable mechanical device composed of a steel frame, which can use energy to enable people to exert extra strength that is difficult to achieve with the physical body]

[Attribute (Mechanical): 350 Health Points, 3 Combat Power]

【Ability Effect】

[Passive · Inferior core: The energy supply core can only provide 2 minutes and 37 seconds of use time. 】

[Passive · Reinforced Alloy: Made of high-quality alloy, it provides an additional 150 HP. 】

[Active Overload charging: Consume one-third of the energy of the current energy supply core for 3 seconds of overload charging, and the next attack can cause great damage to the target. 】

Ok……

Judging from the properties of the panel alone, it feels pretty good?

Li Lin controlled the power arm and swung a few punches in the air. The energy supplied by the crystal shards drove the gears to rotate. The white steam generated by the rapid consumption of blue energy spewed out from the gaps between the metals and quickly dissipated in the air.

There is an obvious feeling of suffocation, the movement between the mechanical parts is still a bit slow, and the response is at least half a beat slower, no wonder the quality of the manufactured products is inferior.

However, it is already very good to be able to exert this effect for the first time. If it is improved and equipped with Hex energy crystals, then a complete exoskeleton mechanical power armor can be manufactured...

Li Lin quickly analyzed in his mind, and came to a conclusion that can be summed up in 4 words:
The future is expected!

And beside him, Jess, who didn't know when he hid in the corner, reminded: "Oh, take it easy!"

In order to prevent the last energy of the crystal shards from being wasted for no reason, Li Lin took the power arm off his arm, turned off the power switch, and put it back on the shelf.

Seeing that he finally stopped making trouble, Jess leaned back cautiously, stretched out his hand to stroke back and forth on the power arm, and felt it carefully.

"So, the difference between this and the Atlas glove is that it fits the muscle streamline on the arm better, takes up less space than the glove, and is more convenient to use?

"But I don't think there's much difference? It's just a different appearance..."

Jess rubbed his face, raised his thick eyebrows slightly, and continued:
"However, wearing the Atlas glove for a long time will cause damage to the wearer's bones, and it uses a Hex technology battery, which leads to insufficient power for its battery life. If your arm can solve these problems, It's an excellent invention."

Li Lin did not directly refute Jess' point of view, but just asked with a smile: "Then what if I said that this power arm is only a part?"

"Part of it?" Jess was stunned, and suddenly his eyes lit up again, as if he had guessed something, "You mean..."
