Chapter 39
Chapter 39
There are many mechas nowadays, and there are also many S-level psychics, but there are very few mechas that can truly reach S-level.
There are racing-grade mechas from A to S. In fact, an A-grade mecha equipped with an S-grade energy crystal is called a preparatory/quasi-S-grade, and only a mecha that truly has intelligence can be called an S-grade mecha. Many A-class mecha masters will try to use S-class energy crystals as the core of their weapons, hoping that the mecha itself can resonate more strongly with mental power, thereby generating mecha intelligence.
But this kind of intelligence is difficult to produce. Rather than intelligence, it is more like another level of spiritual body that is produced by the high degree of empathy between the mecha master's mental power and the mecha. It comes from the mecha master's mental power and the mecha's own energy. Can it be
The activation all depends on the mecha pilot's mental strength level.
Therefore, in order to activate an S-class mecha, three factors must be present: an S-class mecha embryo, an S-class psychic mecha master, and a high degree of empathy between both parties.
In his previous life, Ying Chenlin was convinced that he could not recover his S-level mental strength, so later he devoted himself to researching another kind of mecha, trying to transfer the mecha Yuan that had a high degree of empathy with him to a next-level mecha. However, this research was not completed before his rebirth.
He doesn't have S-class mental power now, so logically he shouldn't be able to drive an S-class mecha, but now a certain convention has been broken.
There are no such coincidences in the world. All that remains is to exclude conventional factors and explore other reasons...such as this piece of supernatural crystal. The S-level dual-attribute supernatural crystal is one of the more special and rare supernatural crystals. He had not speculated on other reasons before, but the conversation with Shen Xingtang just now reminded him of a detail.
S-class mechas are special, and their intelligence gives them different abilities.
Generally speaking, the core energy of a weapon needs to be regularly repaired and refilled with the same energy source by a maintenance technician, but S-class mechas can recharge themselves.
In his previous life, he had read a report in the field of mecha research. The report stated that intelligent S-class mechas had the possibility of empathy with energy crystals. The research on this empathy was that the S-class mechas could absorb a portion of the energy of energy crystals with the same properties to restore the core weapon functions. However, A-class energy crystals were used at that time, and there was no luxury to use S-class energy crystals. The reason in the final analysis was that the S-class absorbed energy at a high level, which was the same as pollutants devouring low-level pollutants to achieve the purpose of satiety.
Thinking of this, Ying Chenlin took out the energy crystal. In order not to cause other troubles, he took these things directly into a special room in the maintenance room. This room was specially set up for maintenance technicians to test the weapon core and had the function of suppressing the fluctuations of the energy crystal.
Ying Chenlin activated the function and then released his mental power again.
His mental power was already poor. He had tried it before, but because A-level mental power could not stimulate the prerequisite of S-level supernatural crystal, he only tested it for a few minutes and then withdrew his hand. But this time he did not withdraw his hand.
The mental power wrapped around the S-level supernatural crystal, causing it to float slightly upward and hover in Ying Chenlin's palm.
Time passed minute by minute, and just when Ying Chenlin thought that his guess was wrong, the lightning inside the S-level energy crystal actually became brighter. The light was continuous, and as a result, the mecha key placed next to it also glowed slightly.
Ying Chenlin was stunned when he saw this, and his mind was slightly broken. The suspended energy crystal suddenly sank and fell into his palm, and the light of the mecha also disappeared.
'It is possible to drive a mecha of a higher level, but it requires a lot of mental strength to support it. '
The voice of the border army doctor was close at hand not long ago. Ying Chenlin clenched the energy crystal tightly, as if he had thought of something.
The maintenance room was very quiet. When You Su pushed the door open, he didn't see Ying Chenlin, but only saw maintenance robots running around the room. His peripheral vision swept across other places, and finally looked at a lit display screen in the distance, indicating that there was someone inside.
There is a prototype of a weapon draft on the programming table, which shows that someone was sitting here designing weapons not long ago.
Theo said, "Shen Xingtang said he wanted to give us the space-enhancing energy crystal, why didn't you agree?"
"That energy crystal has the dual properties of space and enhancement. The space is a closed space, and the enhancement is also enhancement within the space." You Su flipped through the draft on the programming table and continued in a light tone: "Which weapon of yours do you think it would be most useful if installed on it?"
After inspection, it was found that this space-enhancing ability crystal inherited the main abilities of the S-level sand lizard. The space is to create a closed space with it as the center point, and the other is enhancement. The scope of application of this enhancement is only within the created space.
If it is equipped on a weapon, the spatial range will definitely not be as wide as that summoned by the sand lizard. For ultra-long-range gun mechas, this kind of space is useless. If you want to take advantage of its enhanced characteristics, you have to be trapped in the created space.
The degree of freedom is not high, and being attacked by others first could be a fatal risk.
It can be used in any other space with similar domain characteristics, but if it is a closed space, for You Su who likes to use artillery weapons, this thing is of no use at all.
Theo analyzed it: "But what a pity!"
It’s not that regrettable… S-level supernatural crystals are indeed rare, but he saw two of them in succession after he came to KID.
You Su covered the draft on the desk and said, "You said something wrong before."
Theo: “?”
You Su said: "The feng shui of Sirius is indeed good. At least KID's luck is better than ours."
Theo asked, "But will we be in time for the game? Aren't all your mechas broken?"
When Ying Chenlin pushed open the door, he saw a figure on the program platform. He paused for a moment and saw the other person's gaze sweeping over and meeting his.
Before Ying Chenlin could speak, You Suo asked, "Are you done?"
"Yeah." Ying Chenlin returned to the programming table carrying the maintenance bag. Seeing that You Su didn't move, his eyes suddenly stopped on the necklace around You Su's neck. It was a dark black mecha necklace with a faint glow around it, indicating that it had sufficient energy and its intelligence was in an activated state.
The mecha master in front of him has an S-class intelligent mecha and is also an S-class psychic.
Noticing Ying Chenlin's gaze, You Su took off his necklace and handed it to him.
Ying Chenlin was slightly startled: "For me?"
"Aren't you the maintenance technician at the base?" You Su asked, "Can you repair an S-class mecha?"
What You Su said in the contaminated area was not a joke. He was planning to hand Theo over to Ying Chenlin for repair.
"Wait a minute." Ying Chenlin suddenly thought of something, turned around quickly, jumped off the programming table, and ran towards the laboratory.
Theo was held in You Su's hand and asked doubtfully: "You Su, are you rejected?"
"You talk a lot." You Su didn't look at it, but looked straight in the direction where Ying Chenlin left.
After a while, Ying Chenlin came out of the laboratory, bringing with him the Sand Lizard S-level dual-attribute supernatural crystal, which had space-enhancing supernatural powers. Space corresponded to the earth attribute, and enhancement corresponded to the wind attribute. After testing, Shen Xingtang left the supernatural crystal in the base laboratory.
"Try injecting mental power into it." Ying Chenlin said.
You Su glanced at him with slight concern, but still mobilized his mental power to inject it into the S-level dual-attribute energy crystal. As the mental power seeped in, the outer edge of the Theo mecha key in his other hand gradually lit up.
Theo said in confusion: "Hey, I can receive the energy leaked from this S-level energy crystal."
And it was not actively received, but passively received under the influence of Yousu's mental power.
The two of them have been in the polluted area for many years, and many useless energy crystals have been absorbed by Theo as snacks, but this kind of eating depends on the situation. For example, the energy crystal equipped on Theo is of wind attribute, so only energy crystals of wind attribute are useful to him. They also discovered in the contaminated area that this kind of heterocrystalline could be absorbed by the same source. Later, these homologous heterocrystalline became the material for charging the core of its weapon.
But now, this S-level dual-attribute energy crystal was preliminarily determined to be of wind and earth attributes. The mixed energy was not suitable for Theo, but Theo could still feel its energy.
Ying Chenlin saw this and was certain of something, "S-class energy crystals are as special as S-class mechas."
If there was something wrong with his mental power after the operation, then Yuan's appearance at that time was not accidental. Perhaps he needed to change his original plan and re-study the S-class mecha.
You Su asked: "Can it be repaired?"
"Yes." Ying Chenlin looked at You Su, "But can I put forward a condition?"
You Su: "You say."
Ying Chenlin looked at him seriously: "I want to borrow your mental power."
You Su was slightly startled when he heard this, and at this moment he heard footsteps behind him.
When Shen Xingtang opened the door, she saw You Su standing in front of Ying Chenlin, as if blocking him in front of the program table. She frowned slightly: "What are you two doing?"
You Su came back to his senses: "What can I do? Ask our maintenance technician to repair the mecha."
Shen Xingtang looked at him suspiciously, but then remembered another thing that happened. "Then I'll bother you for a while. Shen Lin, come here. I have something to tell you."
When Ying Chenlin was walking out, You Su threw Theo's mecha key to him and he caught it.
You Su waved his hand and said bluntly: "Just let me know if you need help."
Ying Chenlin took the key and nodded: "I'll be back soon."
After they left the maintenance room, Shen Xingtang asked in confusion, "He didn't bully you, did he?"
"No." Ying Chenlin said: "What's wrong?"
Shen Xingtang: "That's good."
Ying Chenlin thought of another thing, "Has Mr. You ever been a border mecha master?"
When he asked about Huo Yan, You Su said that he had met Huo Yan once or twice, but from Huo Yan's reaction, it seemed that he did not know You Su.
"What did he tell you?" Shen Xingtang thought of her first encounter with You Su. Their first meeting was not when You Su was serving in the Mecha Alliance, but much longer ago, when she had not yet retired from the battlefield and was still a battlefield maintenance technician and had been on a mission. You Su was the youngest mecha technician on that mission at that time.
She was deeply impressed by this. There were rarely any underage mecha technicians in places like the Star Alliance military. But she had also heard that mecha technicians with outstanding talents would be admitted by the military as an exception and trained from a young age. However, she heard from her colleagues that You Su's identity was a mystery and it was difficult to find out.
You Su was injured during that mission. His mecha at the time was also Theo, but it was Theo whose intelligence had not yet awakened.
The next time they met was backstage at the Mecha League, and You Su became a mecha master of FEI.
"I'm not in a position to reveal this. Since he has mentioned this, you can go and ask him directly." Shen Xingtang smiled and said, "I can only say that he was quite rebellious in the past. Even though he seems to be easy to talk to now, you should be careful not to be bullied by him."
Ying Chenlin lowered his head slightly, as if thinking about something.
"By the way, I came to you to talk about the parts issue." Shen Xingtang pushed open the door of his office and handed him the laptop. "Do you still remember the person who cleared out all the parts from our online store?"
Shen Xingtang came to see Ying Chenlin for no other reason than that Mr. Zhou from Jianheng Technology Company came to discuss cooperation and was interested in Ying Chenlin's parts technology. The company wants to promote the improvement of A-class mechas and thus change the current A-class mecha market. One of the most difficult things to solve is the manufacturing materials and parts of the mechas.
After they purchased Ying Chenlin's parts, the research institute under Jianheng Company studied the parts and found the existence of mental power secondary shaping technology. They also tried to imitate the direction of mental power inside the parts to shape them, but still failed. This time we came to KID for cooperation because we wanted to acquire all of KID's products before they were launched on the market.
The company's solution was very straightforward, and the price they offered was higher than what was listed on Shen Xingtang's online store.
It has to be said that Jianheng Company is very wealthy and is even prepared for a long-term battle. It has even rented KID's base building.
"Can't they simulate it?" Ying Chenlin was a little surprised.
Shen Xingtang said, "Well, they tried, but they couldn't shape the body coherently every time. Usually their mental strength would be cut off halfway through."
This is also the reason why Shen Xingtang is not worried about the technology being leaked after the parts are sold. She herself has tried to use Ying Chenlin's method to shape her mental power, but it can only be said that the number of successes is extremely small, and even if she succeeds, she can't achieve as high a conversion rate as Ying Chenlin.
It’s not that the method he provided is not feasible. If Shen Xingtang is given a few more years to practice, he should be able to reach Ying Chenlin’s level. It can only be said that this child is too talented. At such a young age, he seems to know everything.
"We probably can't provide what they need." Ying Chenlin knew that the purpose of this company was to acquire parts. "He probably came here for more than just this purpose.
? ”
"Yes, I rejected them." Shen Xingtang didn't care about this. Even though the price offered by the other party was very tempting, she couldn't ignore Ying Chenlin's interests. "Then they made another suggestion. They wanted to hire you as their consultant at a high price."
Jianheng Company was very sincere, and Shen Xingtang also helped to convey the sincerity of the other party. "I'm just telling you that you can refuse the other party at any time--"
Before he finished speaking, Ying Chenlin suddenly asked, "Do I need to work in their company to be a consultant?"
"That's not the case. I can just give remote guidance to their engineers when I have time." Shen Xingtang was stunned: "Are you agreeing to this?"
Jianheng is now one of the largest companies in the Dawn Galaxy, and their development has expanded to other star regions.
"There's no hesitation, and this isn't really a technology." Ying Chenlin knew that the spare parts market would develop very rapidly in the future, with technological iterations changing every year. When he first used his polishing habits to repair parts for KID, he didn't expect the impact would be so wide. There was no need to hide such technology, so it would be better to establish a good relationship with Jianheng Technology Company. Maybe there would be a time to buy parts from them in the future.
"The time I can provide is limited." Ying Chenlin told Shen Xingtang directly, "Then you can tell them that we just need to negotiate terms. Technical cooperation is just technical cooperation, and they can't interfere with KID's online store operations. Oh, and they should have a lot of material channels, right...?"
Shen Xingtang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How short of materials are you? Aren't the materials on your list enough?"
Ying Chenlin shook his head, "Not enough."
It was enough originally, but if he now wants to take advantage of Yousuo's mecha Theo and all the preparations he has made for Yuan, his goal has to be bigger. He wants not only A-level materials, but also S-level materials.
This kid really has the lack of materials written all over his face.
Shen Xingtang originally planned to refuse, but now he could only continue to negotiate with Jianheng Company and get better conditions for Ying Chenlin. "Then there is nothing else to do. Your materials should arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Go back and have a rest first. Don't be too tired."
Ying Chenlin said: "Not tired, then I will go back to the maintenance room first."
Shen Xingtang was about to call him, but the child politely turned around and closed the office door for her, and the long chain of a mecha key next to him swung with his movement.
"This You Su..." Shen Xingtang pinched his eyebrows.
Outside the KID building, the spies of Jianheng Company who had been waiting here for several days finally got a chance to take a break. God knows how long they had been waiting here, waiting for the people from the KID base who had gone on a mission to Tianyu Star to come back.
After Boss Zhou came out of the KID base and returned to the hovercraft, the secretary beside him handed him a work document and asked in confusion: "Boss, we spent so much effort to negotiate cooperation with KID and even rented their building. Shen Xingtang seems to be a cautious person. Will she agree to cooperate with us?"
"Whether she agrees or not, our first priority is to show our sincerity."
The hovercraft was getting farther and farther away. Boss Zhou looked back at the KID base building gradually disappearing from his sight and continued, "Didn't you say before that you wanted to expand your business to Sirius? The KID building is good. It's close, so even if the deal doesn't go through later, it will be convenient to buy parts."
The secretary said nothing, just followed the boss.
Boss Zhou felt relieved. There must be an engineer inside KID who is good at parts design. Regardless of the relationship between this engineer and KID, if they want to cooperate with each other to obtain technical information, the best way is to go through KID. As long as it can bring new opportunities to the Jianheng mecha market, these investments are small money.
When we arrived at the airport, the secretary had already summarized Boss Zhou's investment intentions and reminded him, "According to our previous investigation, KID's development in recent years has not been very good. If we need to continue to invest in KID in the future, will the risk be too great?"
Boss Zhou smiled and said, "Really? I think KID is pretty good."
"There aren't many people, and there aren't that many complicated relationships. It's better to keep it simple."
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a message from Shen Xingtang, asking him to discuss it in detail at noon tomorrow.
The secretary turned his head and saw that the airport was notifying them that the interstellar flight to Jianheng headquarters was ready to board. Seeing that his boss didn't say anything, he reminded him, "Boss, it's time to go."
"I'm not going back to headquarters for now."
Under the secretary's puzzled gaze, Boss Zhou continued, "Please transfer all other work to this side temporarily, and change all meetings to online. I will stay at Sirius for the next week."
Time flies so fast, and there is only one month left until the league.
The large amount of materials obtained from the polluted area of Tianyu Star brought a huge amount of income to KID's meager treasury, so much so that the maintenance funds provided for the mechas were doubled. Not only that, when Shen Xingtang checked several of KID's competition-level mechas, she also found that their backup energy was filled with three tubes. She suddenly understood why these people were so cool when they released the energy liquid to blow up the sand lizards.
Shen Xingtang: "So you drew all these from the defense zone?"
"Everyone has recharged." Ji Qingfeng said: "Zhao Lejie even recharged several tubes himself."
Huo Yan also helped explain: "I also took Qi Sicheng in there to recharge."
Shen Xingtang thought of the resentful look in the eyes of the head of the Tianyu Star Administration when he called her some time ago, as if he had found the source of everything.
In order to catch up with the league, they did not take any more missions in other polluted areas for the next period of time.
Everyone has a heavy responsibility on their shoulders. As the boss, Shen Xingtang not only has to be busy with work in the maintenance room, but also has to submit You Su's registration application and league details to the league. He goes out early and comes back late every day and is rarely seen.
All mecha operators have entered their own training schedules. You Su is a new member of the team and many lineups need to be honed.
Jiang Simiao, as the KID manager who coordinates all of these, goes back and forth between the office and the training room every day, and occasionally comes to the maintenance room. However, every time Ying Chenlin sees him, he finds that he has a sad face, and he always covers his chest when he comes out of the mecha technicians' training room.
While Jiang Simiao was standing at the door of the quiet maintenance room drinking coffee dejectedly for who knows how many times, Ying Chenlin curiously clicked on the video record of the training room. When he saw the gun mechas that fired according to their mood, the guard mechas fighting alone, the stealth mechas that died early, and the tank mechas that were always on the way to support teammates, he kindly gave Jiang Simiao a pack of refreshing tea sent by Xun Bao.
Shen Xingtang came back from outside and saw this scene. He comforted her, "It's okay. Practice some more."
Jiang Simiao pondered and glanced into the training room. Suddenly, he had a new idea: "If it really doesn't work, we can only let them go to the virtual battlefield."
Shen Xingtang asked: "Is there enough time?"
Jiang Simiao looked at the schedule and said, "It's enough. Fortunately, they didn't drop out of the top 16 last season."
KID's training was carried out in a hasty manner, and Ying Chenlin spent the whole day in the maintenance room.
On the other hand, the talks with Jianheng Company went very smoothly. Boss Zhou was very satisfied with the result. He knew KID's current situation and all he asked for was that Ying Chenlin could spare some time every week to help them check the progress of parts technology. For this purpose, he even moved several laboratories to the KID building to facilitate communication.
In addition, Boss Zhou seemed to be aware of KID's current situation and expressed his willingness to be KID's sponsor. If KID has any parts or material needs, he can also purchase them through Jianheng's channels at a price lower than the market price.
Such conditions were so tempting that the KID group, who had been poor for too long, were stunned when they heard the news.
Ji Qingfeng: "Is the boss of Jianheng Company also here to help the poor and do charity?"
Lin Yao said with emotion: "We are so lucky. We have met many fortune-giving boys recently."
Ji Qingfeng corrected him: "What kind of boy is this that brings wealth? This is called the God of Wealth."
Shen Xingtang was speechless towards them. He turned his head to look at Ying Chenlin who was silent beside him... God of Wealth? The real God of Wealth should be the one next to her.
Lu Xi asked cautiously, "Are they going to ask us to sign a contract to sell ourselves?"
"No way?" Huo Yan said with a smile: "Look, other bases also have sponsors. Jifeng has several sponsors. If our previous sponsor hadn't run away, we would have sponsors."
Ying Chenlin listened to the jokes of his teammates. The lively atmosphere filled the small training room. He liked this atmosphere very much.
Listening to the joyful voices of the crowd, he did not stop writing, and outlined the core details of the new weapon in the computer program stroke by stroke. `
-
In the spacious training room at the Jifeng base, Qi Sicheng came out of the virtual warehouse and walked straight to the training meeting room next door. As soon as he entered, he saw Brother Zhang, one of the leaders of Jifeng, standing in front of the virtual screen. The virtual screen displayed the information of each strong team for the next season, as if they had already made preparations for the league in advance.
Qi Sicheng has not relaxed at all in the past few days. As the current number one base in the Dawn Galaxy, Jifeng has entered a state of preparation for war after returning from the polluted area of Tianyu Star. The bases behind them are all strong, especially the second-ranked Black Crow and the third-ranked YDS, who obviously have hidden trump cards.
In addition to them, Jifeng also needs to be wary of some teams outside the top eight.
Brother Zhang saw Qi Sicheng coming over and said, "Wait until tonight to notify them to come to the meeting. The pollution zone of Tianyu Star has been delayed for too long this time. We need to make new adjustments to our predictions for the competition-level pollution zone next season."
Qi Sicheng asked doubtfully, "Is it certain that Tianyu Star will not be classified as a competition-level pollution zone?"
Brother Zhang nodded. Speaking of this matter, many people in the alliance have come to him to inquire about information recently.
The incident on Tianyu Star caused quite a stir, but the official information released was very little. In addition to the three main bases, some of the 28 mecha divisions participating in the mission came from other bases. The fact that the supernatural crystal fell into KID's hands was leaked out quickly. However, some people did not believe this result, nor did they believe that Ji Feng and YDS would release the supernatural crystal. The more rumors there were, the more various versions came out.
However, the KID base could not be contacted at all, so those who wanted to inquire about the news turned to them.
Brother Zhang: "Oh, by the way, you've been busy lately so I forgot to tell you. Last time you asked me to look for the two mecha masters, I did as you said and searched among the retired mecha masters, and I found them, but I only found guns and cannons."
Qi Sicheng was stunned: "Didn't the guards find out?"
"I haven't found out. There's too little information. There's only one name, Ying Chenlin. Do you know how many retired mecha masters there are in the Star Alliance? Are there any mecha masters who haven't revealed their real names? They're hard to find." Brother Zhang put the information up. "But the gun mecha was also a mecha master of our Dawn Alliance, but he retired five years ago?"
5 years ago?
Qi Sicheng had not yet entered the Gale Base at that time, "He is very old?"
"Not very old. He is only 24 years old this year and retired at the age of 19. His resume is very strange and many things cannot be found."
Brother Zhang waved his hand, and the other party's information popped up on the entire virtual screen. "His name is You Su."
Qi Sicheng frowned: "You Su?"
Brother Zhang: "You may be unfamiliar with his name, but what about trace? This name is not unfamiliar, right?"
Qi Sicheng paused, saw the information on the virtual screen, and frowned tightly: "It's him?"
"Yeah." Brother Zhang said with a headache: "Shen Xingtang really found an incredible gun and cannon mecha."
The start of the Team Battle Mecha League is getting closer and closer. As one of the most popular mecha leagues every year, netizens will start to pay attention to the battle rosters of various mecha bases at this time. Unlike single-soldier mechas, team battle mechas are five-person mechas fighting against each other. Every time each base officially announces the lineup, it will attract the attention of many netizens.
Some people also mentioned KID.
Speaking of KID, many netizens don't know how to evaluate it.
After the incident in the Domain Star Pollution Zone ended, the entire KID base seemed to have disappeared. Some Star Network netizens who had been lurking in their official online store were still hoping for new products to be put on the shelves. As a result, not to mention the online store, the official blog didn't even post a single update. The full network preheating of the team battle mecha had nothing to do with them at all.
[No way, KID is really going to withdraw from the 15th league? 】
[No, I just checked the Dawn Alliance and KID is on the list! 】
What’s wrong with this base? They don’t do business and they don’t play any games? 】
[Hasn’t there been any news about their guns and cannons yet? 】
[Didn’t Zhao say that KID was all present during the live broadcast at Gale Base a while ago? 】
When other bases released their lineups one after another, the long-dormant KID official Weibo finally popped up.
[@KID Robot Base: List of participants in the 15th Robot League of the First Star Region Dawn Galaxy
Tank: KID-Yan
Guard: KID-Yao
Control: KID-Lucy
Hidden: KID-QingF
Guns: KID-Trace]
When netizens saw this list, they were stunned.
trace……? Who is this?
etc? ? ? trace! ! ! ?
The author has something to say:
See you tomorrow~
