Chapter 495: Birth of a New Mech
Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas
After switching off the Skylink, Wang Zheng was still stunned for some time. It had only been a short time since he had decided to achieve something on Tita Star. Yet, he had been summoned back?
Frankly speaking, Wang Zheng did not wish to leave. He had always wanted to complete what he had started. Moreover, with his relationship with the Lan Family and the people of Tita, this wasn’t something that definitely couldn’t be resolved.
If the new mech was developed, with the commercial value of this model of mecha, it would be enough as the capital for the initial development of Tita Star. There would be no need to engage in destructive excavation.
What was more important was that this would be different from the Commerce organisation where they stocked up while waiting for the price to increase. What Wang Zheng wanted to do was merely a very ordinary form of research and development.
There were enough benefits. Moreover, with the guarantee of such a mech, Tita Star would also possess their own military strength for protection when they entered the Milky Way Alliance officially. The reason why the Lan Family had been weak internally was also because of their lack of battle force.
When he knew of these news, Wang Zheng still told it to Zisu and the rest. The rest felt regret over it but also felt happy for Wang Zheng. After all, Wang Zheng was going to obtain a better opportunity and shouldn’t be stopped. However, the administrative procedures weren’t easy too. After some delays, Wang Zheng felt that he should be able to see the prototype mech before he left.
The initial form of the mech of the combination use of G material and the Super Gravity Energy Mineral was ready.
In the aspect of production of mecha, humans were already very familiar with it. The difficulty lay with making technological breakthroughs. All they could do now it to wait for the mech to take shape so as to see if what could work in theory would also be able to work as well in the reality.
The Super Gravity sliding rail once activated could instantly provide a sliding track for the mech. If it was used by a “Wind” attribute Ability user, the whole process could be quickened. However, in the defensive aspect, there weren’t any better thoughts at the current moment. The simplest way of thinking would be to add an additional shield. However, a shield would be too big and definitely wouldn’t work. If it was to slow the mech down, the mech would be pointless. However, if there wasn’t a shield, there wouldn’t be any defensive capabilities and this mech would seem to be too fragile.
As they were immersed within the research, they didn’t realised a storm was brewing outside.
After half a month, the first “Wind” attribute battle mech was completed. Ye Zisu and the rest were all working overtime. Lan Ling and the rest were also staying the research lab. Rara Durai and the rest were also helping during the times when they weren’t training. With the strengths of the giants, it was much more convenient and easier to equip and dismantle equipment.
The first “Wind” attribute battle mech hadn’t been named. The first priority for everyone was to see if this mech would be effective.
The order for the deployment of Wang Zheng had been communicated. However, there was no rush as they weren’t any clear instructions that he had to leave immediately. All that was said was that it would be fine as long as he leave within a month. This allowed Wang Zheng to feel relaxed and relieved. There was at least some more time to make the new mech more perfect.
As the first person to experience the first mech, Kong Zhan operated the mech by walking around the training ground. Ye Zisu and the rest were looking at the data nervously.
The truth was that the only innovation in this mech was the Super Gravity Sliding Rail. Would the mech be able to possess unparalleled power?
Kong Zhan spent over 10 minutes to get used to the mech. As the captain of the Silver Snake Republic, he would have the experience in using various advanced mech. “Performance is great and this mech would likely be competitive.”
This was a conservative evaluation as this alone would not be barely enough.
The key was the Super Gravity Sliding Rail.
Kong Zhan took a deep breath and made preparations for the mech to make a sudden lunging movement. At the same time, he activated the Super Gravity Sliding Rail and invoked his Ability X.
In an instant, the mech scurried forward violently for over 10 metres. Without losing any momentum, it rushed forward. Kong Zhan almost failed to control it.
Everyone had their eyes opened wide open and was staring at the data on the screen. Instantly, everyone let out a thunderous cheer.
They had really succeeded!
Lan Ling felt that it was a little impossible. The Lan Family had not been able to create an effective prototype after researching for so long. However, with Ye Zisu, a unique idea was surprisingly successful!
“Kong Zhan, please try it again without using your Ability X.” said Ye Zisu with keen sparkling eyes. The truth was that she had this thought since a long time ago. It was just that her initial intention was to make use of magnetic force. She hadn’t expected the Super Gravity Energy Mineral to have increased the design effects in an instant.
Kong Zhan operated the mech and performed ordinary movements and displacements multiple times. They were a clear difference. Moving with “Wind” attribute Ability X, the Super Gravity Energy Mineral had a special reaction effect with the mech. The speed and control over the mech had increased several times. However, the ordinary movement and displacement would also sweep and dominated over any mecha on the market. This had allowed the pros to have more room for operating. In other words, Ye Zisu’s design was successful.
Everyone was cheering but Ye Zisu still seemed a little calm. This was because it still wouldn’t be enough. Her design for this mech wasn’t that simple. However, Kong Zhan’s ability in operating it was not able to fully maximise the capabilities of the mech.
“Zisu, what was the matter? Are there any other problems?” Wang Zheng asked. His interests had already been aroused by what he saw. However, he wasn’t a “Wind” attribute Ability user. If only if he was, he would definitely enjoyed it himself to the fullest.
The difference was great. He could feel that the effects of his “Ice” and “Fire” ability were extremely weak in this place.
“Did you remember the temporary energy shield of the Wind God?”
Wang Zheng nodded. He obviously remembered. He had executed it subconsciously previously. It was the through the usage of expanding energy. However, it was only temporary.
“It was the effect of Energy Siphoning. The truth was that this effect could be controlled. Although the difficulty was extremely high, a pro could obtain control over it after training. The defence of this mech isn’t enough. Due to the situation in this place, I had also added the siphoning design into this mech. Including the titanium blade, I have added the Super Gravity Energy Mineral in hope that through the friction during attacks and making use of the Super Gravity Sliding Rail, the dispersed “Wind” attribute energy would form a temporary Wind Shield.”
Ye Zisu said. The technicians around were dumbfounded and were engaged in discussions. There was no wonder now that Ye Zisu was being so demanding during the designing phase such as making it absolutely a must to ensure some unnecessary angles were also followed. No one had expected it to be because of this.
This was too difficult for everyone!
Kong Zhan also heard it. He shook his head while forcing a smile. “This type of movements could probably be done only by Wang Zheng.”
Wang Zheng’s Hercules, Wind God, Gold Wheel and Phantom King were considered to be the 4 unbreakable mecha in IG. It was entirely because the pilot was different. One could only imagine the number of Academies that were doing research on these 4 models of mecha. Rumours had it that Manalasuo had re-started the Golden Wheel plan and wanted to nurture a batch of super warriors specialising in operating the Golden Wheel.
The strength of humans lay within their terrifying ability to learn. Before Wang Zheng had demonstrated it, there might not be anyone who could have thought of it. However, when Wang Zheng had become the sample, there would definitely be people who could replicate it.
“Wang Zheng, give it a try too! Even if you do not had a “Wind” attribute Ability, you can also test the limits of the mech.” said Ate.
Wang Zheng nodded his head. He had seen the production of this model of mech. It was using over-the-top methods. After all, it was a prototype and would definitely be made to test the extreme limits. If it was to be mass-produced, it would definitely not adopt such advanced manufacturing techniques.
Wang Zheng entered the mech and felt the combination with the G Material. Using the Wind God as the base, it was indeed an huge improvement. It was also more comfortable. He started the mech.
In the arena, the mech moved around slowly. After which, it started to accelerate and run.
Following which, Wang Zheng made all kinds of weird movement. Stretching, lunging forward and even surprising high leg whips and spinning attacks that had no blind spot. A normal mech wouldn’t be able to withstand such torture. The mech seemed to be a piece of cloth that was worn on the body of the pilot.
