Chapter 457: Leaking Imperial Secrets
When one hundred giants and seventy-two paper puppets came out of the Java compound, cheers like a tsunami erupted all around.
The giants were all dressed in simple long gowns, turbans, and leggings, looking like a group of farmers in the land of giants.
Lin Wen deliberately covered up the abnormal parts of their bodies, applied hundreds of tons of putty powder to their scorched skin, bought dozens of barrels of cheap perfume to wash away the constant stench on their bodies, and then changed them into a very distinctive outfit.
Even if the giant appeared in front of the Council at this moment, it probably would not recognize that it was the cutting-edge biological weapon they had carefully crafted.
The giants walked silently in the middle, while colorful paper puppets jumped around and greeted everyone.
"Hi!"
"Hello everyone!"
"This is my first public appearance, please forgive me."
"My name is Mike, he's very sexy."
"Thank you, thank you."
"Let's get started!"
"Sorry, confidential matters cannot be answered."
"They are naturally this tall, so please don't judge them with tinted glasses. They are actually very kind and friendly."
"Hey! Security, please get that reporter out who's still taking pictures!"
Lin Wen squeezed in among the giants and performed stand-up comedy all the way, which helped to establish an image for the Java Engineering Team and dispel some unrealistic conspiracy theories that were detrimental to the scientific spirit.
Soon, nearly two hundred people arrived at the construction site.
The construction site was fully equipped, and the giants picked up their special tools and began to level the ground.
Paper puppets operate simple mechanical auxiliary tasks.
Lin Wenzhe came to Unit 1 under the protection of everyone.
The robot is lying flat on the ground when it is stationary.
Lin Wen climbed onto the robot's chest, opened the hatch, and revealed a humanoid operating room made of all-metal structure.
Lin Wen stepped in with his right foot. There was a movable mechanical metal block underneath, and his foot was completely inserted into the hole in the center of the metal block.
With a click, the mechanical structure buckled, and Lin Wen could feel the huge metal lever perfectly wrapped around every muscle in his legs.
Reach in with your left hand and do the same thing.
When Lin Wen completely entered the operating room, all four of his limbs were already immersed in the huge metal structure.
He lightly touched the button above with his forehead, and the hatch automatically closed. The huge metal rod above fell down and wrapped around his head. A periscope-like structure allowed him to easily see the outside world.
At this moment, Lin Wen was completely immersed in the metal.
Then, the light of magic lit up on Lin Wen, and he once again cast all the spells.
By exerting force with both hands, the huge force is transmitted to the mechanical joints through the lever, and then to the robot arm.
Rumble!
The robot slowly raised its body, and the people watching outside cheered!
"It's moving! It's moving!"
"The robot is moving!"
"Fuck, is this true?"
“Isn’t this a model?”
"I thought it was all a lie."
In addition to old audiences, there were also many new audiences.
The number of tourists visiting Changshan County has also increased dramatically recently, with 99% of them coming to see the robots in person. This has also boosted the popularity of Changshan County’s only tourist attraction:
The phantom sun-urging devil pit.
And the photo spot on the Demonic Pit.
Tourists were surprised to find that the location was quite good.
The Tianmo Pit is located on the plain, across the road. It is bottomless and spectacular.
The photo spot is a platform hanging high above the Demonic Pit. Looking down, you have an epic feeling of facing the abyss.
The banner in front of the photo spot is also very interesting.
On the left is written the vast blue sky with no bottom; on the right is written the sun and the moon shining on the golden and silver platforms.
The horizontal banner reads "Photograph Fifty".
Just for this couplet, many tourists paid their money without hesitation.
The scenic spot that Chief Engineer Yang and Zhao Minggong had spent a lot of thought on finally came into play today.
These travel photos have also appeared in major magazines, travel journals and on the Internet.
Changshan County currently has a relatively high reputation in the empire, and its image has gradually changed from a black-hearted area in the unknown place to a well-known area where black and white people mix.
Of course, Lin Wen didn’t think so much. His main task now was to hammer the earth.
It takes the most energy for the robot to stand up, but it actually feels better after it stands up.
When robots picked up tools and joined the battlefield, the project progressed more than ten times faster.
A large amount of land was quickly leveled and trench lines were drawn.
Countless contractors followed suit and started work.
The new town now has three circles, inner and outer, which are being constructed simultaneously, making it like a super large construction site.
On this land of more than 5,000 square kilometers, one-fifth of the empire's engineering teams and machinery are gathered.
More than a thousand contractors have already started work, and more than 1.4 million people are employed here.
The person in charge of all the projects in this area was Zhao Minggong, and he was also the one who coordinated more than a thousand contractors.
His office was moved directly next to the new town, and medical staff also moved here.
He still only works seven to eight hours a day, but he can handle so many complicated things in an orderly manner, which amazes countless engineering team bosses.
On the other hand, the first Changshan County Military Expo was held as scheduled.
A total of more than 200 military personnel, including those from the Qin Group, came. Qin Luoshuang, Fang Dashan, Wang Zhengwu, and He Shangsheng were responsible for the reception.
The meeting place was specially set up next to the construction site. Lin Wen's solution was to delay time and wait until he finished the work on the construction site before coming back to fool them.
This strategy worked very well.
The shocking scene of robots working attracted everyone.
This is different from watching it on a screen or in a video. Watching it live allows you to directly feel the robot's powerful force. Every time its heavy hammer strikes the ground, the ground shakes, there is a loud roar, and dust flies in your face. You can't see it in a videotape or a photo.
Soldiers are all physical and aesthetic animals. The saying "don't cry until you see the coffin" can well describe their style.
Although theory has denied the effectiveness and use of robots, when the soldiers felt the power of the robots on the scene, their fighting blood began to flow again.
They suddenly wanted it again.
General Li from the Central District said, "Commander Fang, Miss Qin, can you transfer the technology for this thing?"
"Hey, Lao Li, don't worry. This is an engineering aircraft. I remember Changshan County also has a fighter plane. It's the No. 2 aircraft, right?"
Qin Luoshuang smiled and said, "You are right, it is in the warehouse now."
"Come on, take us to see it."
"Where on earth did you guys in Changshan County get so many treasures?"
Hai Damer, the Empire's chief military weapons expert and scientist, sighed, "I've wanted to come to your county for a long time, but I've been busy with work. Now I'm finally here, and I'm determined to expose your true colors."
"Right, right, right. We are all fighting for the Empire. How can you hide your good stuff?"
Hai Damu clapped his hand on the shoulder of Mr. Fei, who remained silent on the other side, and said with a smile, "Mr. Fei, why do you look so unhappy?"
Fermi said coldly: "Nothing, I'm just not interested."
"Hey, Lao Fei, you finally made a mistake."
Hai Damer became excited. "Let me tell you, Changshan County's things may appear plain on the outside, but if you think about it carefully, they're actually quite magical!"
He talked excitedly about the incredible parts of it, and Fermi listened quietly without saying a word.
On the other side, Wang Ya quietly approached Qin Luoshuang and whispered in her ear, "Miss, Mr. Fei has been ostracized from within the group. Mr. Li has replaced him as the group's chief expert. Mr. Li has completely rejected all of Mr. Fei's proposals and projects. He's having a very hard time now."
Qin Luoshuang replied in the same low voice, "Is it possible to dig him up? Changshan County doesn't have such a top expert yet."
Wang Ya whispered: "I tried, but Mr. Fei refused, but there may be some opportunities today."
Qin Luoshuang nodded.
A group of two hundred people soon arrived at Changshan County's highest-secret hangar.
When the door of the hangar on the left was pushed open, the big iron ball that Lin Wen had arbitrarily created shocked everyone.
"How thick is this armor?"
"Isn't this weight off the charts? Can your power source handle it?"
"Is your design reasonable? Especially your chest armor, this, this, this..."
The expert took off his glasses and couldn't find the right words to describe it. "This is so weird."
Qin Luoshuang tried her best to remain mysterious, although she also wanted to complain about this unreasonable design.
"This is a composition we created after decades of painstaking research. It may appear illogical, but it hides countless secrets."
In the past, Qin Luoshuang would never have said such words.
But after staying in Changshan County for a long time, she couldn't help but be influenced by Lin Wen.
Under Qin Luoshuang's desperate persuasion, they watched the robot for five or six hours.
I went back to Huaizhen and had a big meal for more than an hour, then went back to the construction site to watch the robot hammer the ground for more than an hour.
Haidamo was shocked. "What on earth do you use as a power source? Is it the legendary nuclear reactor?"
Another expert snapped, "Your nuclear research must be reported to the Supreme Council! Selfish research and development is treason!"
Another general from the Central District also said seriously, "The Empire will never allow anyone to privately develop or research nuclear theory, nuclear weapons, or any nuclear-related industries! You'd better explain yourself quickly, or you will be subject to the Empire's nuclear investigation."
Fermi's eyes lit up in a rare way.
He looked at the robot hammering the ground in the distance and fell into deep thought.
Qin Luoshuang could no longer deceive people. Nuclear theory was taboo knowledge in the empire, and she only knew a little about it because her family was researching nuclear weapons.
So she called Lin Wen, hoping he could come to the rescue.
After a moment, the robots in the field stopped and the Java engineering team began to finish work.
The central experts suddenly said, "We'd like to meet with the Java engineering team. Is that possible?"
Qin Luoshuang was feeling depressed because she couldn't get through to Lin Wen on the phone, but when she heard this, she quickly agreed.
She went to communicate with the engineering team in person. She thought it would be very troublesome, but she didn't expect them to agree immediately.
"no problem."
"Xiao Shuang... uh, Miss Qin, we'll be there soon."
Qin Luoshuang felt a little strange. Isn't it that the Java engineering team speaks the local dialect too fluently?
But she did not investigate further and temporarily requisitioned a conference hall in Huai Town.
More than two hundred expert generals and twelve colorful engineer representatives gathered together.
The central expert who had been causing trouble suddenly became friendly. He first went on stage and delivered a long and passionate speech of praise, and then shook hands enthusiastically with every engineer.
For some reason, he felt that every engineer's hands were particularly soft, and they all wore gloves.
But this little thing passed by in a flash, and the experts licked it vigorously, and every word was a carefully crafted flattery.
But the effect doesn't seem to be very good.
The engineers' responses were all the same.
"That's right."
"You're right, you guys are rubbish, we are number one in the world."
"Of course. Our dam is unmatched anywhere else. Yours is as good as shit. It'll collapse if it's flooded."
"Back then, I was guarding the dike... No, I heard the great, handsome, and naturally gifted County Chief Lin say that the dike was no different from tofu dregs."
"The steel drill used wood, the concrete used mud, and the foundation was like a cesspool. When the water rushed in, there were hidden holes everywhere. God knows how much money you embezzled."
The expert was suddenly unable to continue.
Why do these foreign engineers know so much about the empire?
It must have been said by the mayor of Changshan County!
The experts were furious.
How dare you reveal imperial secrets?
Don’t you know that family disgrace should not be made public?
You are damaging the great image of the empire. When I return, I will definitely file a complaint against you at the Supreme Council.
"These are all rumors, please don't believe them."
Experts tried their best to save the situation.
"The Empire has always been clean and honest. Corruption is severely punished and never tolerated. The Empire is so large that there are bound to be a few bad bugs. We have already eliminated them all."
An engineer with dark skin, green hair, and purple eyes said, "That old Yu from the review committee is so shameless, and you haven't even dealt with it."
The expert was furious and thought to himself, you kid actually leaked the internal information of the empire. It’s fine if you have a conflict with Yu Zhongxian, but why do you have to involve the empire?
It's a disgrace to the country!
How can the empire maintain its glorious and positive image?
"Absurdity, absurdity," the expert said, his smile fading. "Let's get down to business."
