Mechanical Doctor

…

As the engine started, the magic patterns engraved on the exoskeleton began to flash. Algernon, wearing this power exoskeleton armor, felt an unprecedented experience.

Unlike Wilfred, who had already experienced vehicle-mounted mechas and even served as the second and third drivers of mini-Titan mechas, this was the first time that Algernon used a mechanical creation with a complete mental control system.

His feeling at this time was completely different from using those machines with only the simplest mental control system.

At this time, Algernon seemed to be able to feel that his body had terrifying power.

This was certainly not his illusion. After all, when Manolin designed this power exoskeleton armor, he was aiming for both combat and work.

Although the combat power of this exoskeleton is still a little behind that of a serious vehicle-mounted mecha, for a rookie like Algernon who is only at level one, the strength of the increase can be said to be terrifying.

In particular, Algernon used a mental control system, the characteristic of this control system is "turning the body into a machine", allowing the operator to completely regard the machine as a part of his body.

However, when he took a step, the problem emerged - it was difficult for him to control his new "body".

Because his current strength was too low, even though he was a [mechanic] who had a bonus in controlling machinery, it was difficult for him to control this set of powered exoskeleton armor without enough mental strength.

Just like those early cars without electric power steering systems, even if you have good driving skills, it is difficult to control such a car well without enough strength.

As a "senior" [mechanic], Manolin quickly discovered the problem.

However, he had no way to solve this problem. After all, mental power is related to the human soul. Only when the soul is strong will the mental power become stronger accordingly. Similarly, when the mental power becomes stronger, it will also feed back to the soul.

Those methods that can increase mental power in a short period of time all require a high price, and there may be many sequelae.

In general, for ordinary people, if they want to enhance their mental power, they can only honestly improve their extraordinary level.

Algernon dragged his heavy steps and walked around with difficulty before taking off the power exoskeleton armor.

When the wearable platform removed the exoskeleton, Algernon was soaked as if he had just been pulled out of the water.

In addition to sweating a lot, his face was not good.

The black skin that was originally tanned due to long-term outdoor work before entering the [Pterosaur] now turned a little pale.

The people who were watching knew that this was a manifestation of huge mental consumption.

"Alas, you are too stubborn, kid."

Wilfred supported Algernon, who was a little shaky, and complained: "The most important thing on the road of transcendence is to do what you can and not to act recklessly. You are really too reckless."

Wilfred actually always had a good impression of the boy in front of him, because his experience and personality were similar to the boy in front of him.

Although he advised Algernon not to be stubborn and not to act recklessly, he was actually not much better.

If it weren't for his stubborn character, he, a mid-level [mechanic], would not have ended up bankrupt no matter how miserable his life was.

Manolin began to quickly check Algernon's current physical condition, and he was relieved when the check was completed.

"This kid is a little exhausted because of excessive mental energy consumption. He should rest for a while now. When the canteen opens for dinner, he will have a good meal and everything will be fine."

After hearing the diagnosis of Manolin, a "highly skilled" doctor, and confirming that Algernon was not seriously ill, everyone was relieved.

So many people are worried about Algernon, which is enough to show that Algernon is still very good in interpersonal relationships.

In fact, for all the [mechanics], who would hate a little apprentice who works quickly and has a sweet mouth?

After finding a place for Algernon to lie down and rest, Manolin stuffed a handful of candy into the little guy to let him replenish his nutrition temporarily.

Although there was a little episode during the experiment, it did not affect the continuation of the experiment.

However, this time Manolin did not look for the little guys who were only level one.

He decided to test from high to low professional level to see what level of [Mechanic] could wear this power exoskeleton armor without pressure.

Finally, after rounds of tests, he finally came to the conclusion that this power exoskeleton armor wantedLong-term use requires a level 3 [mechanic].

Although a level 2 [mechanic] can also operate this power exoskeleton armor, it is still a bit stressful after a long time.

After those who have experienced the power exoskeleton armor have given their opinions, Manolin began to improve and mass-produce it.

He is now planning to produce 150 sets of this power exoskeleton armor. In addition to ensuring that each level 3 and above [mechanic] can have one set, a part of the exoskeleton can be left as a spare after damage.

However, repairing mechanical equipment is the main business of the [mechanic] profession. Under normal circumstances, spare power exoskeleton armor should not be used.

However, Manolin still has to consider the possibility of promotion for those level 1 and 2 [mechanics]. After all, these guys can wear power exoskeleton armor after level 3.

In fact, according to the promotion speed of normal professionals, even at a low level, one or two years to be promoted to one level is considered fast.

However, I don't know if it's because there is a large amount of knowledge reserves of the [Mechanic] profession on the [Pterosaur] and the mechanical knowledge that is far ahead of the times passed down from Manolin, which has led to the promotion speed of the [Mechanic] extraordinary people on the entire ship being slightly faster.

Normally, if the base number of [Mechanic] extraordinary people is relatively small, Manolin is really not sure about the phenomenon of accelerated promotion speed.

But now there are nearly 300 [Mechanic] extraordinary people on the ship, such a large base number, so it is quite convincing.

One or two people are promoted faster than normal, which may be caused by these people's special talents or sudden enlightenment, but now with such a large base number, the promotion speed of many [Mechanics] has increased, which explains the problem.
