From scrap mecha to science fiction paradise

Chapter 9 Wearing Armor and Holding a Gun

It is impossible to ride Dian Wei while riding Dian Wei.

After all, just creating Dawn has completely consumed all the financial resources on hand.

Not to mention making another mecha, he didn't have the funds to make an ordinary transportation vehicle that could carry Dawn.

What's more, the escort force was about to attack, and he didn't have that time.

However, designing and thinking from the perspective of Lu Bu's personality did give him many useful new ideas.

It's actually a good idea to sacrifice some lower limb performance and then pair it with a mount.

In order to maintain load-bearing and mobility, the mecha's lower limbs often require higher energy and power than its upper limbs. However, considering energy, power, weight, body shape, etc., it is inevitable to sacrifice other parts of the body. performance.

However, even the worst mecha weighs several tons. Unless it is equipped with an anti-gravity system or a flight system, it is impossible for the mecha to use its lower limbs for actions other than maneuvering. All aspects of combat and attack are dominated by the upper limbs. .

If additional 'mounts' are used and the mobility requirements are placed on an external vehicle, the performance of part of the lower limbs can be reduced and used to optimize and strengthen the upper limbs, or to carry some additional combat modules.

Of course, this is all a thing for another day. The war is about to begin, and it is impossible for him to make major changes to Daybreak at this time.

Although Rupert said that the escort team would not arrive until tomorrow, Lin Yu did not leave the mecha workshop just in case, in order to ensure that he could board the mecha in time.

Staying in the workshop, debugging, and gradually becoming familiar with the feeling of driving, half a day and one night passed quickly.

The whole night was silent.

The next day, it's five o'clock in the morning.

The special communicator captured from Rupert sounded accurately on the hour.

"Get them here."

Lin Yu went out, went to the toilet, kicked awake Rupert, who was curled up on the floor, and threw the communicator on him.

"what?"

Rupert was still a little confused after falling asleep, but when Lin Yu pointed his gun at him, he woke up instantly. He nodded repeatedly, and then connected the communication: "Come to No. 274, Squirrel Street, the goods are here."

There was nothing unusual about his tone and he seemed very honest.

But... it's too fast.

Normally, there will definitely be a communication process when the communication is connected. Even if it fails, the other party should briefly introduce their identity or ask a question.

But Rupert obviously skipped this process and asked the other party to come over.

If the other party is alert enough, then this is a very obvious signal.

However, Lin Yu ignored Rupert's cleverness.

It’s enough to attract people.

The more vigilant you are, the more people come together, the better.

There was dawn, and if there was no accident, it would be the same no matter how many regular troops came. The more they came together, the easier it would be for him to destroy the opponent. On the contrary, it would be a headache if there were fewer troops coming. He couldn't find them one by one, let alone guard against thieves all the time. Wearing a mecha.

And if there is an accident that cannot be dealt with even at dawn... then there is no need to think too much about it.

"Lin...Brother Lin, are you here already?"

Probably after hearing the noise, Bai Wei, who had obviously been up all night, opened the door and walked out of the bedroom.

"Ah."

Lin Yu nodded slightly, then glanced at a few things in her hand.

There are a few things that look like firearms, with structures like compressed air pumps. They should be homemade simple pneumatic firearms.

In addition, there were some bottles and cans, which Lin Yu could easily tell with his eyes. They were probably primitive but effective weapons such as thermite and incendiary bombs. What attracted his attention the most was a tattered-looking powered mechanical arm armor that was obviously made from various scrap parts.

"It seems that this girl is not completely stupid..."

Lin Yu couldn't help but want to slap him in the face when he saw these equipment that were even more complete than his own in terms of pure weapons.

Other than that, the powered mechanical arm armor is not something that can be made in a day or two.

In particular, many of the parts looked familiar to him. They were basically inappropriate components that he had picked out and thrown away when he was making Dawn.

If he was still the same person and still had any bad intentions, then he might really fall into the hands of this seemingly silly and sweet woman today.

"I...I'm not very good at using it. Why don't you, Brother Lin, do it?"

Seeing Lin Yu's eyes falling on the thing in her hand, Bai Wei hesitated slightly and handed the simple mechanical arm armor and air pump gun to Lin Yu.

Now that things have come to this, they are about to face the escort troops of those traffickers, which is no different from dying together. There is no point in thinking about being on guard anymore. Now this situation is enough to clear people's hearts.

Regardless of what he did before, regardless of whether his previous remarks were true or false, at least now, he is indeed risking his life to make up for it as much as possible.

"No, just keep it to yourself. Just take care of yourself and find a place to hide it first."

Lin Yu shook his head, turned around and went directly into the mecha workshop.

Powered mechanical arm armor, this can be regarded as a branch of research and development direction of mechanical power armor - an eclectic work of exoskeleton armor.

Mechanical power armor actually covers these, but usually refers to larger mechas with thick armor defense, powerful and huge mechanical arms, and even equipped with various weapon modules and functional modules.

As for exoskeleton armor, 'exoskeleton' has already vividly demonstrated its characteristics. It is more like a set of external skeletons, which are lightweight and wrap around the human body. They mainly serve as defense, support, life support, mobility, and slight enhancement. effects on human body functions.

Due to its small size, most of the space in the trunk and limbs needs to be hollow to accommodate the human body. Therefore, the energy that the exoskeleton armor can carry and the power it generates are very weak in comparison, and its uses and positioning are also completely different.

As for the powered mechanical arm armor, this is easier to understand.

Even exoskeleton armors require a wearing process after all, and are generally troublesome. Robotic arm armors are the result of further sacrificing functionality and performance to enhance convenience.

Just like gloves, they are ready to wear and use, and have the effect of enhancing arm strength, but all protective and life-support functions are sacrificed, and all the pressure carried during the period needs to be shared by the human body.

Although the human body is not as fragile as imagined, and many people may have received prosthetic modifications, there is a limit to using a human body to bear inhuman strength. If you don't pay attention, you will end up with broken muscles and fractures.

Lin Yu already had a complete mecha, so he naturally couldn't use the mechanical arm armor at this moment.

laugh!
Entering the mecha workshop and waking up to dawn, amidst a burst of deflation, the cockpit located on the chest was revealed from bottom to top.

Anti-impact system, life support system, air circulation system, etc., these are the standard features of the mecha cockpit.

Because it is a small mecha, Daybreak's cockpit is more similar to an exoskeleton armor. The driver can only enter upright in a wrapped shape. There is not much room for movement inside, but the advantage is that it makes it easier for the driver to adapt to the control.

Ka~ ka ka ka~
Lying down in the cockpit, the sounds of various detailed machine movements were also heard one after another. The entire cabin was further tightened, and various myoelectric, torque and other sensors were attached to the body surface, tightly wrapped, allowing Lin Yu to completely integrate with the mecha. It's like wearing a heavy armor.

An eyepiece was lowered, wrapping the eye sockets, adjusting the viewing distance, and the scene in front of him turned into a multi-spectral lens view at dawn.

"Dawn Armor has been deployed."

"Interactive system testing is in progress..."

"The interactive system is operating normally..."

"All modules of the body are operating normally..."

Data flows in front of my eyes.

The steel giant, who was kneeling on one knee in the dark room, seemed to have returned to his soul at this moment, and a scarlet light suddenly lit up in his eyes.
