Steel Chang'an

Chapter 78

"This is just the beginning, we must hold on, hold on!"

Su Sheng murmured to himself in a low voice, the previous tactics were executed so smoothly, which relieved his tense nerves a lot, but Su Sheng also knew very well that what he just completed was just the first step in the entire tactical plan. If a mature knight is manipulating this Yanshi-type battle armor, after using smoke bombs and electromagnetic traps to control the field, he must rely on puppet machines to destroy and contain the enemy planes. After 50%, even if the knights of the Yanshi Armor are not good at physical skills, they can still use the advantage of their body intact to step forward and exchange damage with the opponent for a reckless fight.

But the premise of doing this is that the knight must have perfect control over the puppet machine, and cause enough battle damage to the opponent before his own puppet machine is exhausted. This cannot just let the puppet machine attack automatically, and the knight needs to control it himself. The puppet machines cooperate with each other to attack the key parts that will affect the strength of the enemy plane. This means that even if the knights of the Yanshi Armor are not good at physical skills, they must be familiar with physical skills in order to analyze and capture the enemy plane The loopholes and gaps in the action, manipulate the puppet machine to carry out targeted strikes, and hit the highest damage with the lowest consumption.

Another premise is that the knight's own body control operation cannot be so bad that it is completely vulnerable.If the Yanshi-type armor wants to win in a one-on-one duel, unless it is like Ji Butler who can brain-control and operate a large number of puppet machines, and each puppet machine can cause effective damage to the enemy plane, otherwise the body of the puppet machine The size and the damage that can be output are limited after all, and the most critical blow is usually completed by the output of the armor itself.This is why some female knights choose the Yanshi-type armor: they may not be as good as male knights in physical skills, but they are inherently weak in physical fitness, and the puppet machine can help them consume the enemy planes first and make up for them. Physical inadequacy.

It's just that these two prerequisites are completely non-existent to Su Sheng.

Of course, Su Sheng didn't know anything about physical skills; body control operations were also impossible for Su Sheng, and brain control operations like Ji Butler's were also unrealistic for Su Sheng.Even the manual operation of multiple puppet machines at the same time is very problematic for Su Sheng: after practicing for a month, the most he can operate at the same time is only two puppet machines.

But he has the skills of a mechanic honed by Li Jing during those years hidden in Li's mechanic shop.

Li's machine repair shop on the old street of Guocheng in Chang'an was the hiding place arranged by Li Jing for Su Sheng.Since it was just a place to hide people, Li Jing naturally didn't plan to let this machine repair shop really open for business.After he bought the machine repair shop that was about to close down from the old street in Guocheng, he didn't buy any equipment, so the tall floating operating table and multi-model robotic arm operating racks were like those in Xiao Teng Wang's hangar. Su Sheng doesn't have all the tools that a senior mechanic would have. It's not that Li Jing is stingy, it's because these expensive new equipment appeared on a dilapidated old street in Chang'an Guocheng. Too compelling.

This forced Su Sheng to learn to use the most crude tools to repair and assemble mechs. A mechanic repair shop like Li's Mechanic Repair Shop located on an abandoned old street outside Chang'an City would have customers come to their door, so naturally it would not be serious Customers are usually desperate knights who have committed a crime and want to leave the city, and they are often followed by pursuers. Therefore, the first requirement for repairs is speed, which also forced Su Sheng to practice his skill of diagnosing as quickly as possible. If there is a problem, the ability to repair the mech with the fewest steps.

This unique skill of quick repair, used in battle, can in turn quickly destroy the weak links of the enemy aircraft.

The alloy armor, which is difficult for shells to break through, can be easily disassembled as long as the screws are screwed correctly; the joint bearing supporting the action of the armor can be destroyed in only three steps; By the right place, it can make a 10-ton battle armor soft and soft, involuntarily!
According to Su Sheng's tactical concept, using smoke bombs and electromagnetic traps to trap the opponent and keeping the distance between himself and the enemy plane is the first step, using the puppet machine's automatic attack to attract the opponent's attention is the second step, and the third step is also the most important. The key step is to send out the puppet mechanic under his own control—Ghost Hand, to quickly disassemble and destroy the weak links of the enemy plane, so that the enemy plane is paralyzed and unable to move. The fourth step is to let Xiaoyaowang's armor go up Head harvested.

This is Su Sheng's own path to knighthood that Su Sheng figured out - the mechanics' style of play!
In Li Jing's view, this mechanic's style of play has great limitations.The biggest problem is that if Su Sheng is facing a armor with long-range attack capability, then this whole set of tactics will not work from the first step: even if the opponent is trapped in place by you, he can still use long-range means to destroy it. you!Another problem is that the puppet fighters are consumables. If the puppet fighters are exhausted, but the ghost hand has not had time to paralyze the enemy plane, it will definitely lose. However, Su Sheng's puppet fighters can only attack automatically. It depends on the opponent's strength, not something that Su Sheng can control, which makes the execution of the third step full of uncertainty, and even has a great possibility of failure!
This is why even in the battle of Chunshou, the Iron Fist armor is a pure melee combat armor that does not have long-range attack capabilities, Li Jing does not think that Su Sheng can win this battle with the style of a mechanic biggest reason!
"Your time will not be enough!" Su Sheng still remembered what Li Jing said to him in the simulated battle, "Your armor can only carry a total of 24 puppet machines in three columns at most, even if there is interference from smoke bombs and electromagnetic traps, we will It only takes 1 minute and 5 seconds to kill all your aircraft groups. Of course, at my level, this number is of little reference value to you. The time it takes for a master among knights is estimated to be twice as long as mine. It is close to 3 minutes. The calculation results of the housekeeper before also show that more than 50% of the knights can destroy all your puppet machines within 5 minutes, and the fastest time record for your ghost hand to paralyze the mecha is 4 minutes 39 Seconds, and that is a model you are quite familiar with, if you encounter a model you are not familiar with, or the opponent's modified armor, you need to re-scan to locate the weak points of the structure, then the time you spend will be even more Long! In other words, your mechanic style of play can’t defeat more than 50% of the knights, and the knights who will be selected to play in the spring hunting, their strength is definitely above 50%, if you don’t Find a way to limit the time for the ghost hand to paralyze the mecha within 3 minutes, your mechanic style of play is impossible to win in Spring Hunting!"

Su Sheng glanced at the light curtain on the front side of the operating chair.

58 seconds.This is the time it takes for the Iron Fist Warframe to annihilate the first column's dummy.After seemingly embarrassingly stepping on 4 electromagnetic traps and taking 11% of the damage, the Iron Fist armor calmly led the automatic attacking puppet machine to a straight line, and then launched a counterattack, just as Zhang expected. Generally speaking, the Tekken Armor took away the eight puppet machines with the highest efficiency in a single blow!

Although Su Sheng immediately released the puppet machines of the second column, which just filled the vacancy of the first column and restrained the action of the Iron Fist armor again, the thick fog surrounding the Iron Fist armor had already begun to thin, and was cleared. After falling out of the 4 electromagnetic traps around him, the scope of action of the Iron Fist armor has also become larger, and after some testing just now, the Iron Fist armor should have also figured out the automatic attack mode of the puppet machine. The time spent by the puppet machines in the second column will only be shorter than the time it takes to kill the first column!

2 minutes and 44 seconds!
This is the final time needed for the Iron Fist Armor to kill all three columns of puppet machines.Su Sheng calculated quickly in his heart, and pressed both hands on the light curtain control panels on the left and right sides at the same time——

In time!He told himself that the ghost hand would be faster than the iron fist!

His ghost hand will definitely disable the Iron Fist armor within 2 minutes and 44 seconds!

Yuli frowned deeply.

In less than 2 minutes, the Iron Fist Armor destroyed two-thirds of the opponent's puppet fighters in exchange for 23% of the battle damage.

Everything seems to be going well, and if it continues like this, the Iron Fist Armor is already winning.

But this smooth feeling made Yuli feel rather uneasy.

The wave of perfect field control played by the opponent just now, and the offensive that has not been established at all, makes people feel like there is a lot of thunder and little rain.

Could it be that the level of Li Jing's direct disciples is still no better than this after all?
Yuli doesn't think so at all.He has learned the previous lesson, and he no longer has the idea of ​​underestimating the enemy.

Moreover, he has clearly noticed that the puppet machines in the two columns that were annihilated just now are all in automatic attack mode.

That's why he was able to easily understand their attack patterns, lure them into a straight line, and annihilate them all at once.

But no matter how useless the Prince of the North is, he should have the ability to manually control a pilot plane.

Since all the puppet fighters that came to attack him were in automatic attack mode, where is the puppet operated by the Prince of the North?

Yuli squinted his eyes, turned the head of the Iron Fist armor, and looked around the square where the thick smoke was gradually drifting away. The search radar was also buzzing non-stop, but he never saw any suspicious shadows.

But the people watching the battle looked at the Iron Fist armor on the sky, and there was an uproar!

Ghost hands!

From the misty smoke, a pair of ghost hands suddenly appeared!
There is no torso or limbs, only a pair of hands, suspended in the air like a ghost!

These ghost hands rest on the joints on the back of the legs of the Iron Fist Armor. They are shaped like mechanical arms used by a mechanic. The length is no more than 50 cm, and they are attached to the legs of the Iron Fist Armor by electromagnetic gravity!
Because of this, neither the search radar nor the thermal energy monitoring of the Iron Fist armor caught this pair of ghost hands!
But from the sky, it can be clearly seen that the pair of ghost hands are clinging to the thigh joints of the Iron Fist armor, as gently as caressing a woman, and the mechanical wrench protruding from the front of the ghost hands has already pried open the joints The guard plate at the joint, several pliers and tweezers of different lengths also penetrated into the depths of the joint without anyone noticing it!

Is this going to operate on the Iron Fist armor on the battlefield?

The people watching the battle understood a little bit: if a pure melee combat armor like the Iron Fist armor is damaged, if the knee joints of both legs are damaged and become disabled, then it can only lie on the spot and be slaughtered!
The people watching the game were a little confused: can this be done?You must know that although the movement of the Iron Fist armor is restricted, the legs are not tied to death. Under such conditions of constant movement, just relying on the small part of the limited field of view sent back by the monitor that comes with the ghost hand, At the same time, remotely and manually operating two robotic hands to disassemble the leg joints with surgical precision, this kind of thing, I am afraid that even a master who practiced mechanically would not be able to do it. Can a child like the Prince of the North be able to do it?
"He did it!" Little Teng Wang said with emotion, "No wonder His Royal Highness asked me to build him an extra ghost hand. I thought he was just a spare, but I didn't expect him to be in such a short Within a short period of time, he was able to operate two ghost hands with both hands at the same time. In this way, the time for this mechanic's style of play will be doubled. Based on his previous fastest record of 4 minutes and 39 seconds, he should be able to Shorten it to about 2 minutes and 15 seconds!"

"It shouldn't be that fast." Ji Butler said, "His Royal Highness has not been practicing two-handed manipulation for a long time, and the hand speed of two-handed manipulation is bound to be slower than that of one-handed hand. According to Ji Yan's algorithm, if there is no accident, two The ghost hands operate at the same time, and the time it takes to paralyze the mecha should be around 2 minutes and 40 seconds."

"It's too late!" Old Zhang closed his eyes and did some mental calculation, and said loudly, "It will take at least 2 minutes and 44 seconds for the Iron Fist armor to deal with the puppet machines in the three columns. With the boy's current hand speed, this match can be won!"

Hearing Lao Zhang's words, everyone in Teng Jiaxing was excited, and even the Teng Jia soldiers in charge of security cheered.Mu Yun blinked: Li Jing's judgment was wrong!Although he also knew that even Li Jing could not never make mistakes, Mu Yun was still quite shocked to witness Li Jing's misjudgment one day.He turned his head and took a sneak peek at Li Jing, only to see that he was still lazily leaning against the pillar, looking up at the sky, but his expression was quite serious.

"What's the matter? Seeing that your apprentice is promising, you are so reserved as a master, and you don't even have a smile on your face?" Before Mu Yun could speak, Lao Zhang had already poked Li Jing with his elbow, and leaned over Said to him: "Give me a laugh, I'm afraid you will be struck by lightning if you are so pretentious!"

Come on, this unnutritious conversation between the two is about to start again.Mu Yun just complained in his heart, but saw that Li Jing ignored Lao Zhang's teasing, and after slapping Lao Zhang aside, he said in a rare serious way, "Su Sheng is not proficient in manipulating his hands, so I Only then did he suggest that he concentrate on operating a ghost hand on the battlefield to improve his accuracy. Unexpectedly, instead of giving up, this kid secretly practiced two-handed operation. Yes, I’m ashamed to say that it’s me, the master, who underestimated his determination to become a knight!”

Li Jing...is this an admission that his judgment of Su Sheng was wrong?Mu Yun couldn't help being surprised and delighted, surprised that Li Jing would take the initiative to admit his mistake, and happy that Su Sheng's efforts were not in vain, making Li Jing feel ashamed, that is not something ordinary people can do!
But Li Jing's next sentence was like a basin of cold water, which dampened the joy of everyone in Teng Jiaxing: "It's just this battle, Su Sheng probably won't have a chance to win."

"The surname-given knight from the You family should have seen through that the puppet machine is only used as a restraint, and he will definitely break through forcefully in 2 minutes and 40 seconds...he won't leave Su Sheng that much time!"

"Ah?" Before Mu Yun could ask why, Li Jing took out the pocket watch on his chest to check the time, and patted him on the shoulder, "I'm going first, I'll leave this place to you."

"what?"

What's happening here?
