Interstellar Mecha Life

Chapter 34

Speed, steps, start, stop.Every step must be precise and precise. As long as the assembly and operation are carried out according to the regulations, there is no reason to walk out different distances.

Using the unified main chip and the unified standard mecha, each step has the same stride and pace level.Even in the current mainstream mecha market, there is a tacit understanding between brands.Different chips also use the same standard.

Military mechas have the standards of military mechas, and commercial and civilian use are no exception.Standards mean unity.

In the competition, although they only used basic mechas, they also couldn't escape the constraints of the standard.Angel is sure that as long as they are assembled correctly, their stride and pace must be the same as others.

But now...

He felt his heart beating so violently that it seemed to explode, and his entire chest heaved violently.My limbs felt cold, and sweat dripped down my forehead in big drops.Did I really do the right thing just now?Will you forget something?Wrong order?mistake?The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, shaking non-stop in the small and closed operating room of the mech.For a few seconds, it's like being pulled out of the water.

In the main venue, the sun was setting and the sky was getting dark.Suddenly, soft artificial sunlight poured from top to bottom like a waterfall, covering the entire venue.And illuminate everything as clearly as the day.

By this time, those who were still in the venue were either crazy fans of the mecha team, or students who were very interested in mechas.Either way, they couldn't fail to see that there was a problem with one of the mechs on the field.

According to the regulations of the organizer, the appearance of all mechs after assembly must be the same as the finished 3D drawing in the competition room. Any attempt to recolor and redesign the shape of the mechs will be regarded as cheating and will be immediately disqualified.Of course, you can play it freely inside the mech.

So after DREAM's mecha made a different move, the audience on the field didn't know which team's mecha it was.For a moment, everyone's hearts were raised.The problem is whether it is big or small, no one knows whether the shadow will affect the result.

They only knew that even if the assembly part proved to be correct and successful in the end, such a situation would be detrimental to the mecha team.Because in the competition, this link is especially known for being strict and rigid. Even a small mistake will be found out mercilessly by the judges, which will affect the ranking in the final competition.

"Okay, then we see that the five mecha teams have all completed their competitions. No matter which mecha team it is, they have basically fulfilled the judges' requirements and directed the mechas they assembled to move! Then they are Winners, no? Let's give them a round of applause for their performance first?"

Min'er's ability to mobilize the atmosphere played a role at this time.After her words came out, the air in the arena that had been frozen just now finally circulated.There was a burst of applause.She added: "Now all the judges have started reviewing the game, watching the players' game videos and feedback on various data. We need to give them some time to evaluate. You must know that these judges have also worked hard for three days. Keep an eye on the progress of all mecha teams.”

"Well, you're right." Xiao Jia said, "However, no matter how the judges judge, the five mecha teams present should be able to enter the next stage, right? After all, they all succeeded in making the mechas move."

"According to the convention, it is like this. And if there is no accident, they will also become representatives of our school and participate in the inter-school competition of Planet Sokoses! So they are all successful, aren't they?"

"Haha, but don't get too excited." The male host was rather conservative, "At this time, why don't we introduce some statistics from the competition? From the statistics I got, this year's contestants are all The strength is not bad! For example, look here, the average age of this year's players is only 20 years old, the youngest player is Qi Yue, from the DREAM mecha team..."

"Qi Yue, is that our mecha?" Although the appearance of each mecha looks the same, and the driver's cab is also one-way transparent, the people inside cannot be seen from the outside, but Claude is not the same as this mecha after all. After being together for three days, I watched it transform from a pile of parts into a walking steel giant, just like my own child.He has no reason to admit his child wrongly.

Qi Yue nodded: "It's ours."

"Oh my God, what should I do? Could it be that we have a problem with assembly?" Claude said eagerly, "Could it be a measurement error? Our stride is too small? Or..."

"How is it possible, didn't you count your steps just now? Our mecha took 7 steps, just like what the judges said." Qi Yue said to himself, "Why are you so nervous?"

"I should ask why you are so calm." Claude was really anxious. Usually he has a gentle and honest personality and rarely speaks loudly, but at this time his voice was almost roaring. "If we really don't meet the standards, we will be eliminated!"

Seeing him like this, Qi Yue couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, there's no problem. The judges haven't responded so far, maybe they are checking our video and doing on-site testing."

"That's okay!?" Claude was completely confused.

"After checking, of course we know that our mecha is absolutely standardized." Qi Yue said, "Claude, calm down and think about it. What happened in the last step just now?"

"The last step?" Claude tried to remember after hearing her words.

The picture of just a few seconds just now appeared in his mind again, as if a movie clip was played slowly.

The mecha is huge in size. Although it has the same structure as the human body, it is not a human body after all.It is tall, long-legged, and surprisingly heavy.The judges asked the mecha to do a walking demonstration.From the audience's point of view, the mecha is indeed walking, and it is walking leisurely.But in fact, if you actually measure the speed of the mechs, they move very fast.The same step, the same time, but the distance taken by the mecha is several steps away from a person.

In this situation, the starting and braking of the mech must be a problem.Especially braking, it is not advisable to stop like a sudden brake.

Claude was silent for a while, and finally said: "The last step... Our mecha seems to have stopped?"

Qi Yue nodded and said, "That's right."

Generally speaking, the braking of a mecha is the same as that of a car, it is in a state of decelerating in advance.If you watch carefully, you will find that all the players chose to slow down in advance before stopping the mecha.That is to say, the speed at which the leg bearings rotate is slowed down in advance, which also slows down the speed of walking.

But even so, it will cause the mecha to not be completely still after 7 steps.It is likely that the feet stopped, and the upper body was still moving forward.In order to prevent the mecha from falling forward, most mechas will choose to take a half step forward with their hind legs when they retract their legs in the last step, and then the other leg will follow, or they will not follow at all.Therefore, when most of the mechs finally stood still, their legs were not perfectly aligned, but in a state of tandem and back.This ensures excellent stability.This last half-step is not counted as a formal step, but a braking step.

But their DREAM mechs seem to have no such half step.

After thinking of this, Claude stared at Qi Yue with wide eyes, and exclaimed in surprise: "How is this possible?"

Qi Yue blinked and said, "Why is it impossible?"

Claude's brain crashed completely.If it is technical practice, compared to hand work, he may still stand out among his peers, but he is not enough to really involve mecha theory and design.As a sophomore, it's actually normal for him to do this.

"Mecha braking is actually very dangerous and requires balance. At present, in order to solve the problem of the mecha suddenly stopping its steps and falling forward, the mecha will first actively slow down and then passively take a few more steps forward. How much is determined by the original speed of the mech." Qi Yue said in a low voice and confidently: "But in fact, we have a better way, don't we? As Teacher Gu Zhifeng said, imitating the characteristics of human beings, We have joint tissue for cushioning when we stand still, so...."

Claude said in a daze: "You mean, you added this system? You...you...."

He didn't know what to say for a while, and the expression on his face became very strange.

Qi Yue didn't know why, and wanted to ask him what's the matter, but at this time the host suddenly said: "Everyone! The judges have already made a decision. Now let's invite the chairman of the jury, Nolan Cha, the director of the Mecha Design Department of the Mecha Department of the Upper School Professor Er announced the result for everyone!"

She then turned her head away and stared intently at the names appearing sequentially on the huge screen.

Nolan Char is a fat middle-aged man, he pursed his lips and said: "During the first stage of mecha assembly, we were delighted to see that all five mecha teams successfully completed the assembly. Mission. This result is better than last year! No matter what, you are the best among the students, and you should be proud of yourself."

"After careful discussion by our jury, it was decided that the following mecha teams will enter the second round. They are in order: Wuyun Mecha Team."

As soon as he said this, there was a burst of cheers like a tsunami in the arena.Countless banners and signs flew up, and the peripheral members of the Wuyun Mecha team, the fan club and Ke's supporters all stood up and cheered for them.Of course, in addition to their other mecha team supporters and pure mecha lovers, they did not hesitate to give their applause and congratulate them.

"Peak mecha team!" Nolan Char continued calling the mecha team's name.And they would stop every time they said one, leaving a little time for everyone to cheer and celebrate.

"MOON mecha team!"

"Judger mecha team!"

After these four names appeared, the audience erupted in jubilation.Just now everyone's hanging heart fell - the last mecha, the one behind is not theirs!

Although Nolan Char hadn't finished speaking yet, the entire main venue had become a sea of ​​joy. Everyone celebrated each other and began to look forward to the mecha confrontation match starting tomorrow.

Only a few people still hang their hearts, nervously staring at the chairman of the jury and the movement on the big screen.

"Read it, read it quickly!" Angel, a big healthy boy who was almost exhausted, clenched his hands tightly and gritted his teeth.

Qi Yue also became nervous at this time.Claude next to her was stunned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Finally, Nolan Char spoke again: "The above is the list for entering the next stage of the competition."

"What?" Qi Yue stood up abruptly, "This is impossible!"

If she had absolute confidence in anything in this world, it would be her own skills and foundation.A total of more than 20 years of study and work in the two lifetimes gave her sufficient judgment and self-confidence.

She is absolutely sure that the mecha they assembled today is without any problems!How could it not have passed the first stage of the game?
Thousands of thoughts were throbbing in her mind.A dozen emotions boiled in her heart.The clearest one is anger.

Why?She couldn't help but want to question loudly.

"Our entire jury was very disturbed and saddened to make such a decision. In fact, the DREAM mecha team's work has completely reached the qualified standard, and the entire mecha assembly process is quite exciting, even touching. I think Many people in the jury may feel very sorry like me, right? But according to the rules of the competition, we have to make such a decision. But I think the members of the DREAM mecha team are still young, and you still have Time grows and there are still opportunities, so don't give up and keep working hard. Of course, this sentence is also sent to everyone present, including all the mecha teams that signed up this time. No matter what the final result is, you should all be proud of yourself! "

Nolan Char's wonderful ending set off another small climax in the arena, but only Qi Yue, everyone in the DREAM mecha team, and Lulu who was watching on the spot froze in place, at a loss.

"Here, what's going on?" She wanted to ask, but she opened her mouth and found that she couldn't make a sound.The anger just now was replaced by a bad feeling.

She suddenly thought of something, turned her head and looked to the side: "Claude... I... Did I do something wrong?"

At this moment, the camera on the big screen showed the crowd celebrating in the arena. Among the banners and slogans one after another, a banner appeared: Dreams are shattered this year, and glory will come next year!
The white characters on the black background are quite chilling and conspicuous, and full of malicious intent, but the word "brilliant" is enough to make a fuss.
