Interstellar Mecha Life

Chapter 35

"It's not your fault." When McDull said this, his voice was quite soft. "There is a saying that failure is the mother of success. This is only your first year. In the four years of college, you still have three chances. Besides, you I'm only 16 years old, I still have a lot of time, so don't worry at all..."

Qi Yue: "McDull? Shut up."

"Okay." McDull was easy to bully after all, and immediately became obedient and silent.

But Qi Yue's ups and downs and chaotic mood did not calm down because of the sudden silence. 3000 years later, the world has become more and more quiet because of the development of technology and the expansion of human living space.Especially when the night is getting darker and a person is hiding in the room.

The surroundings are so quiet that people feel that they are floating in the universe.Absolute emptiness and silence, as long as she does not move, there is no sound at all.

This kind of tranquility is Qi Yue's favorite, but at this moment, it made her feel a little bit of fear from the bottom of her heart.All kinds of emotions were mixed together, and the chill radiated from the inside out.The air brushed against her smooth white skin, causing her to shiver.

"It's my fault..." She lowered her head and muttered to herself.

She no longer remembers how she got back to the dormitory.I only know the extremely disappointed look in Angor's eyes when he climbed out of the cab, and the helpless expression on Claude's face when he looked at him.

Joint-like cushioning system.This is a work she is quite proud of, and it is not uncommon to use it in previous commissions.Maybe that's why she never realized how self-righteous and blindly daring she was.

The reason why DREAM's mechas are not qualified is simple: because they use technologies that have not been approved by the specification in the mechas.

And this technology is Qi Yue's so-called joint-like cushioning system.

"You can tell us in advance that we apply for a patent, or register with the Mecha Association in advance, and submit the application. Even if it is not approved for the time being, there is still a chance to fight for it!" Claude said that tears were almost in his eyes. .

At that time, the people in the main venue had already dispersed, and the noise had subsided, leaving only a mess on the ground.The cleaning robot quietly passes through the gaps between the seats, sorts and recycles the garbage, and cleans it up bit by bit.It seems to be brushing away the sorrows and joys of this night, and to welcome the new day clean and unencumbered.

But how can the emotions in the heart be cleaned up?

And the three of them stood with Lulu at the exit of the empty main venue, looking at each other.No one can believe what just happened, no one can digest the sudden blow.

They struggled hard for three days, and they were kicked from the clouds to the abyss at the moment when they were confident that they would usher in a new breakthrough.

Pain into the bone marrow.

In the end, Angel raised his head, glanced across the bright starry sky, raised his right hand, and stroked from forehead to chin hatefully, as if this could dispel the sense of loss in his heart.

He wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, but in the end he only patted Qi Yue's shoulder, as if comforting his own brother, and said, "I'm tired, go back and rest, let's talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."

They don't blame themselves, even when they were parting, Lulu hugged her and comforted her: "Don't think too much, get a good sleep."

Thinking of this, Qi Yue's left chest and heart twitched violently.

She didn't realize until this moment how much she wanted to advance.How much I hope that the mecha I assembled can go further in the competition, and I want tens of millions of people to see its demeanor and brilliance, and cheer for it.

It turns out that it is not what I thought before, as long as experience is good, as long as you hone your skills, you can even not participate in combat competitions.

She wants to win.

Qi Yue patted the bed hard: "McDull!"

"Here!" McDull replied loudly.

Qi Yue almost laughed because of its deliberate behavior, and finally there was a glimmer of brilliance in his heart that was full of gloom just now.

"Find out all the relevant regulations of the Mecha Contest." Qi Yue said, "Sort out the paragraphs related to the new technology."

McDull immediately took action, and within half a minute, several windows popped up one after another on the large glass screen in front of Qi Yue.

Her heart was still heavy, and she was exhausted.But she was unwilling to fall asleep and rest at this time.

Since the disaster is caused by yourself, you have to clean it up yourself.Qi Yue didn't know how to specify this excuse in the first competition, and Qi Yue couldn't even say it, feeling shabby.Since you are here to participate in the competition, why don't you study the regulations?I don't know the rules, what are you doing in the game?
This may appear too harsh.After all, most of the competition requirements will be emphasized on the day, and other clauses that are not mentioned will not appear once in eight hundred lifetimes.

But who would have thought that such an impossible thing would happen to Qi Yue.

With the emergence of new technologies, there are no relevant regulations to judge for the time being, resulting in disqualification, which rarely happens.Firstly, there are very few mecha teams composed of college students who can develop so-called new technologies.Even if it is developed, it is still an unrealistic tasteless type.

Even if this kind of tasteless, once it appears, the various mecha teams will definitely actively report and register, and they can't wait to spread it so that the whole world knows.

How can there be someone like Qi Yue who quietly hides and brings to the match scene?
There are many voices on the Internet calling for DREAM's grievances, all based on this point.Many netizens mentioned that it is a new technology after all, and it is such a creative and practical technology, why make things difficult and harsh?Can't you be more forgiving?

Of course, the voice of opposition is not small.You say that new technology is new technology?Without the assessment, who knows if your assembly skills are not good enough to make mistakes, so you come up with a gimmick to fool people?Even if it is a real new technology, without registration and assessment, without regulation, how do you know whether it is right or wrong, good or bad?The referee has no criteria for judging, and of course it must be dealt with seriously.

"Damn it. How can I make a mistake with the new technology I created? You have to wait for others to approve it before you can use it? The red tape of this mecha competition is getting more and more exaggerated, it's just ridiculous."

On the Internet, you come and go, each talking about his own reasons, and it is a lot of quarrel.

It's not that she has no resentment in her heart, but she knows that any kind of emotion at this time will not help.After thinking rationally and calmly as much as possible, she thought that regardless of the technical aspects, from a logical point of view, since there are regulations before she participates in the competition, it means that she must follow the rules.Now because I didn't follow the rules and broke things, even if I was wronged, no matter how much I believed in myself, there was no reason to feel sorry for myself or complain about the injustice of the world.

No matter how old she is on the outside, she is an adult in her heart, and she should have the reason and responsibility of an adult.

However, this definitely does not mean that she has to admit defeat and accept such an ending.As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, she has no reason to give up.

Qi Yue's eyes were fixed on the content compiled by McDull on the screen.Every relevant chapter cannot be missed.The rules of the Mech Contest are rather cumbersome.It wasn't until then that Qi Yue realized that the version she usually came into contact with was the one that couldn't be more concise.In fact, there are tens of thousands of words on the official website just about the use of new technologies and special patents.There is also some related information scattered in other chapters, which adds up to an exaggeration.

Finally, the hard work paid off, and after an hour, Qi Yue finally found a glimmer of hope in the sea of ​​rules and regulations.

She almost jumped up excitedly, surging with joy that she hadn't experienced for a long time.

"McDull, help me contact Teacher Gu Zhifeng."

"Now? Qi Yue, it's two o'clock in the morning." McDull tried to dissuade her, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Qi Yue: "Yes! It's now, quick, help me get through the communication!"

McDull muttered: "I can request a communication for you, but whether I can get through is out of my control."

"McDull!" Qi Yue felt the veins popping up on her forehead, "Stop talking nonsense and work." For the first time, she regretted that she enriched McDull's artificial intelligence again and again.This is simply asking for trouble for yourself.

The communication was quickly picked up, and Qi Yue shouted before the other party could speak: "Mr. Gu, I have a way to get our mecha back to this competition. But I need your help."

Gu Zhifeng was actually watching a late-night TV series before, but he was in a hazy state about to fall asleep.After Qi Yue's communication woke him up, he didn't react for a while, and stayed in a daze.

"Oh……."

"Teacher Gu!" Qi Yue raised his voice again.

Gu Zhifeng was more sober, touched his face casually and said, "Oh, Qi Yue, go to bed first, if you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow, okay?"

"It's already tomorrow." Qi Yue reminded, "It's past twelve o'clock."

Gu Zhifeng had no choice but to say, "Okay, tell me."

"I found in the competition regulations that as long as our system can be certified by the Patent Office or the Mecha Association before the end of the competition, we can re-qualify for the competition! , mecha technicians with instructor level are willing to guarantee us, and then make up the official certification before the start of the next competition." Qi Yue said excitedly, "The competition is not over yet, and there will be a second competition after two days of rest. The stage, that is, the three-day mecha competition. We have a chance!"

Although Gu Zhifeng couldn't bear it, he had to beat her: "Qi Yue, do you know how long it takes on average to apply for a patent and certification? It's two months! Let alone before the end of the competition, it means whether you can apply before the next semester starts. It's hard to say."

The two-month average review time of official organizations such as the Mecha Association is not just delaying time.They need to judge the rationality and authenticity of the technology itself and formulate relevant regulations without touching the core of the technology.This time cannot be shortened unless manpower is increased.

"You can apply for an expedited application." Qi Yue obviously thought of this earlier, "I checked, and if you are willing to pay the highest expedited fee, you can get certified in one day!"

"Okay, then let me ask you." Gu Zhifeng said, "Where does the certification fee come from?"

This amount of money is quite huge, neither someone from the DREAM mecha team nor Gu Zhifeng can afford it.

"We can contact the sponsor." Qi Yue said immediately.

Gu Zhifeng originally wanted to say why the sponsor should pay you this amount of money, but he suddenly thought that the sponsor of DREAM is quite special, and it seems that he attaches great importance to patents.

Hey, did they know that Qi Yue would definitely have a patent?

"Okay, let's try contacting them." Gu Zhifeng finally said, "I'll help you contact them and see what they say first."

After cutting off the communication, Qi Yue still couldn't fall asleep at ease.

She walked a few steps in the dormitory, and then came to the screen as if she had suddenly made up her mind, spread her five fingers and swiped lightly, and the light keyboard appeared on the glass screen.

For sponsors, she has no absolute confidence.So what if they don't agree to pay?Qi Yue obviously couldn't raise the money in a short period of time, and it was absolutely too late to make money by entrusting it now.

Then there is only one way to go - to seek special endorsements from professors who meet the requirements.

Based on the principle of two-pronged approach, Qi Yue cooperated with McDull and began to check the information of professors related to mecha technology in the school.Start with the research direction first, and then look at the various job titles and titles as well as their projects and funding sources.

After sorting out, Qi Yue sent an email to all eligible subjects, including introductions of himself and the DREAM team, and a statement of the situation at the time.In the letter, she earnestly invited the professor to take time out of his busy schedule to guarantee his new technology.

To be honest, she didn't have much confidence.After all, it is a responsibility to guarantee a technology.Even if the other party is a professor, it is not easy to fully digest and review her system within a few days.Although her system was completed only this semester, its prototype is a multi-directional pressure feedback device, which had existed in Meng Aixing's time.

At that time, Qi Yue was only doing small repairs of mech parts, and it took more than three years of intermittent work to perfect it.

To obtain a guarantee in such a short period of time requires the other party's complete trust in her and a deep understanding of relevant theoretical knowledge.Because of the short time, it is impossible for the professors to make a comprehensive argument by themselves.Everything can only rely on the data and information provided by Qi Yue.

The other party is not related to me, so why take this risk?

So even though Qi Yue sent the letter, he was still restless and couldn't sleep.

"Someone has invaded my security protection," McDull said suddenly, "The speed is very fast, and it has entered the second and third floors. Qi Yue, the other party is also an artificial intelligence..."

Qi Yue was startled, and just as she was about to react, she found that her screen had been hijacked.

A simple document was opened in front of her, and the other party entered a line of words at an extremely fast speed.

"I can help you."
