Mecha Journey

"A mecha without an external engine?" Zhou Zhou paused when he heard Yang Mu's words and looked at Yang Mu with some confusion.

"Hasn't this technology proven to have no research and development value long ago? Do you hope to restart this project?"

Yang Mu looked at Zhou Zhou and nodded with a smile. Zhou Zhou looked very surprised, but Yang Mu continued: "I don't want to put the external mecha into actual combat. They are just a Tiny little parts.”

"small parts?"

When Zhou Zhou heard what Yang Mu said, his mind became more and more confused. A mecha with such a big body was just a small part. So what exactly did Yang Mu want to build?

"What are you going to do with this mecha?" Zhou Zhou asked strangely, while Yang Mu finished all the food on the plate and wiped his mouth.

"Brother Zhou, who do you think the enemy of the mecha is?"

"Enemy? Of course it's the enemy mecha. Why are you asking? Let's talk about what happened just now." Zhou Zhou asked with confusion on his face.

Yang Mu looked up at the other party and said slowly.

"Then I think the current situation should have some changes."

"You mean, what about the Starry Sky Zerg that just appeared recently?" Zhou Zhou quickly came to his senses, and Yang Mu also nodded.

"The vice-dean who we just attended the meeting came back. What he means is that we need to step up research and development now. The focus is to make the mecha less able to break through the defenses so easily, and to increase the firepower of the mecha."

Yang Mu knew that in addition to Mr. Yan, they sent a senior dean to attend the meeting this time. Admittedly, he said such words because he saw the lethality of the soldier bugs against human mechas at the scene.

However, this method has been verified as early as the last life, and it is completely unworkable. Among small combat units, mechas are more flexible than fighter planes, but those Zerg who are like a fish in water in the universe are more flexible.

Their speed is extremely fast, and their limbs, legs and mouthparts are sharp enough. As long as they catch the mecha, almost all the mecha warriors inside will not survive.

So when he heard Zhou Zhou say this, Yang Mu shook his head.

"This idea has been changed, but the key point has not been grasped."

Yang Mu was also speaking in the cafeteria where there were not many people at this moment. Zhou Zhou looked around nervously to make sure that no one was listening to their conversation, and then he also spoke nervously.

"What are you talking about? That was a decision made by our vice president, and you just rejected it?"

Zhou Zhou only felt that Yang Mu was taking it for granted, or that the recent change in status made him a little proud, but when he saw Yang Mu's burning eyes, he stopped, closed his mouth and looked at Yang Mu.

"Brother Zhou, believe me. I also participated in that meeting. I know something about these things."

"The current mecha technology is almost as fragile as a piece of tissue under the attack of those bugs. Those bugs are about the same size as the mecha, but the intensity of the attack is many times greater."

"It is impossible for us to give up this kind of individual weapon, but the existing defense is not good. Instead of making the armor thicker and increasing the firepower, we should..."

"Make the mecha larger so that the bugs can be crushed like small bugs in its eyes."

When Yang Mu said this, he seemed to have made up his mind and said: "Let's give up this general idea and make a super large mecha, a large mecha several stories high!"

Yang Mu said confidently, but after hearing Yang Mu's words, Zhou Zhou spat out a mouthful of rice in his mouth, looked at Yang Mu with wide eyes, stood up, stretched out his hand, and touched directly Yang Mu's forehead.

"You don't have a fever? Are you crazy or am I crazy?"

Yang Mu was extremely embarrassed by this action. He opened his hand and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhou, do you think I am just having some weird ideas?"

"Of course it's not..." Zhou Zhou said immediately, but when he saw Yang Mu's questioning look, he finally sighed and sat down, looking at Yang Mu in confusion.

"But super large mechas only exist in comic novels. In reality, the cost of manufacturing such a weapon, not to mention its combat effectiveness, may be as much as that of an assault ship."

"Moreover, there will be many problems with large-scale mechas, such as mechanical transmission, component integrity, data transmission libraries, the production lines for manufacturing them, the weapons they use, and the need for oversized power core furnaces, etc. , these are big problems.”

"So, just think about this thing, it's not necessary..."

"But what if I could give you these drawings?"

Zhou Zhou waved his hands and shook his head to reject Yang Mu's statement, but Yang Mu suddenly said this, and Zhou Zhou's tone suddenly stopped.

"What did you say?"

Yang Mu looked at Zhou Zhou's surprised expression and said slowly: "What if we already have a rough idea of ​​the large-scale drawings?"

"How is this possible? Did you draw it? Don't scare me. Show me where it is." Zhou Zhou swallowed and asked quickly, but Yang Mu smiled.

"How could I possibly carry these things with me, but don't worry, I'm not telling lies. Although the cost will be high, I believe that this kind of weapon will be very advantageous when used against the Zerg."

"Even a large zerg."

Zhou Zhou sat down with a look of astonishment on his face. Although he didn't see the drawings that Yang Mu brought out, Yang Mu was never a person who talked empty words. If he could say this, it meant that he was prepared.

"Having blueprints is another matter. The transmission of a large mecha can be fatal." Zhou Zhou still said at this time, but Yang Mu said again.

"That's why I asked if mechas without external engines have been designed yet."

Zhou Zhou raised his head in confusion: "What does this have to do with mechas without external engines?"

Yang Mu sighed, smiled, stacked his own plate on the other's plate, and then placed his chopsticks upright on the plate.

"In order to be applied to mecha nesting technology."

"Mecha nesting technology?" Zhou Zhou looked at Yang Mu's movements, finally looked at the stacked plates in front of him, muttered twice, and suddenly raised his head to look at Yang Mu.

"You want to nest a conventional mecha without an external engine inside a large mecha?"

"In the end, the person sat in this small mecha to control this big mecha?"

Zhou Zhou asked two questions in succession. At this moment, he was extremely shocked. At the same time, his mind was also running rapidly, thinking about the feasibility of this method.

"Yes, through double-layer nesting, the small mecha becomes like our own limbs, and then embedded into the large mecha. In this way, the transmission problem can be solved by the internal mecha. At the same time, It also serves as another barrier to protect the mecha warriors." Yang Mu explained slowly.

"This is really crazy. Even our best mecha designers don't dare to think like this." Zhou Zhou said a little blankly, but suddenly looked at Yang Mu with clear eyes.

"Then will we have to abandon small mechas in the future? And what kind of combat unit is such a large mecha?"

"It is still a single combat unit, but the enemies it faces will be large-scale Zerg. As for the small mechas, after so many years of research, it is absolutely impossible for us to just abandon them."

"Then what to do? You said before that this kind of mecha is worse than a piece of paper in the face of real threats."

Yang Mu already had an idea in his mind and looked at Zhou Zhou and said.

"Drone Armor."
