Chapter 631 I Can’t Hold It Back Anymore
As soon as Lin Wen arrived in Changshan County, he went straight to Hai Daming's laboratory.
Since the production line of exoskeleton armor was built, Haidamo turned to researching weapons and equipment suitable for use with exoskeleton armor.
The weapons and equipment currently used by soldiers, such as 20mm machine guns, 55mm howitzers, 60mm mortars, impact-piercing mortars, electric knives, infrared eyepieces, optical measuring instruments, long-range communications, etc., were all developed by Hai Damer.
They played a huge role on the battlefield and achieved fruitful results, but Haidamo was still not satisfied. The individual electromagnetic rifle and nano automatic repair device that he really wanted to develop were not successful.
Lin Wen was not interested in this, nor did he intend to waste his precious soul and luck to help him realize his ideal - the cost was too high and it was not a technology that could be mastered at present.
But Heidamo obviously doesn't think so.
"Sheriff Lin, I've seen the Strike Liberty's electromagnetic hand cannon. I think it's entirely possible for me to develop a method for mass production. If you can make it by hand, I can mass produce it."
Lin Wen advised, "That's impossible. Our technology isn't up to the task. Why don't you research other projects first?"
The stubbornness of scientists is unimaginable to ordinary people, especially great scientists. Hai Damer shook his head: "I don't believe it. If you can make it, it means I can make it too, the only difference is the cost and method."
“You can’t make it…”
Hai Damer asked back, "Then how could you create it?"
Lin Wen: "I comprehend with my heart, feel with my spirit, generate with my love, and inject my soul..."
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
Lin Wen scratched his head, not knowing how to explain it, so he had to avoid the subject.
"Mr. Hai, after observing these wars, I believe that what exoskeleton armor most needs right now is a blast shield."
Haidamo said coldly: "The armor itself has strong defensive capabilities, and does not need the things that ordinary soldiers and police use."
Lin Wen smiled and said, "Mr. Hai, you haven't gotten the point. The mecha itself has to carry out many functions, so its defensive capabilities can't be very strong. The blast shield is a peripheral device, so it can be used for defense only without any consideration of any functions. The blast shield for humans is limited in weight, but the blast shield for exoskeleton armor can weigh hundreds of kilograms."
Hai Daming is not only a great scientist, but also a weapons expert. Lin Wen only mentioned it once, and he immediately came to his senses.
"Yes, the shield can be hung on the arm without affecting their movements at all. When necessary, they can use the shield to defend against impact or as a cover. If necessary, they can discard the shield to reduce weight or engage in dangerous close combat."
Lin Wen smiled and said, "This way, they will have more tactical options."
Haidamo immediately forgot his unhappiness and smiled again: "Okay, I'll start researching it right away. Um, the material should be aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, or..."
Lin Wen smiled and said, "Use titanium alloy, add one percent tungsten, three percent cobalt, and then bond them with boron nitride and iron carbide powder. This makes a shield that's the lightest and the hardest. Even armor-piercing discarding sabot rounds can't penetrate a 200-kilogram shield."
Haidamo's eyes suddenly widened, and his nostrils flared wider than a cow's.
"This... this is the material formula? You have the material formula? Did you come up with it?"
Lin Wen casually replied, "This was told to me by a scientist named Zhang Jing who wishes to remain anonymous."
Haidam was quite regretful. "What a shame! I was hoping to get to know this materials master. Perhaps our geniuses could combine to create even more geniuses. I'm tired of playing with Lao Fei, and the excitement in our interactions isn't there anymore. I desperately need new people."
Lin Wen smiled and said, "Try Mr. Li?"
A huge look of disgust appeared on Haidamo's fat face.
"You're short, ugly, poor, and skinny. It's an insult to my beauty."
Lin Wen saw Hai Damu looking at him with shining eyes and wisely ended the topic.
"Mr. Hai, I have another idea. If every soldier could carry a few spare batteries, wouldn't their combat time be doubled?"
Haidamo shook his head: "Battery production capacity is insufficient. I have been expanding the battery production line."
He paused and continued.
"You may not realize the significance of this battery. It's not just for war. It can completely change every aspect of society and the way many things operate."
"The biggest pain point in humans using electricity is the inability to store it on a large scale. This new energy battery breaks this limitation. It is undoubtedly an energy revolution. Humanity can completely abandon chemical energy and switch to electrical energy with it."
"certainly."
Hai Damer looked at Lin Wen with sparkling eyes.
"Its prerequisite is to have a nuclear fusion power plant, otherwise it is impossible."
Lin Wen smiled. The nuclear fusion power plant was his perfect masterpiece, a technology that spanned at least a hundred years.
Haidamo continued, "Luckily, we already have it. I heard from Lao Fei that the nuclear fusion power plant generates so much electricity that it's even sold for takeout, and if it weren't for transmission constraints, it could generate even more. Lao Fei has complained to me more than once, saying that they have mastered the specifications of the fusion reactor and that the little sun can easily reach three times its current size. If they are a little bolder, even five times."
Lin Wen shook his head: "The cooling water can't keep up, and there aren't that many generators."
Hai Damu laughed and said, "That's why Old Fei is full of complaints and is so restless all the time. In his opinion, it would be such a shame if humanity's most advanced technology couldn't be fully utilized."
"Let's talk about this later."
Lin Wen changed the subject. His luck and spirit were limited and could not be abused.
These things can obviously be accomplished with human technology, so don't use immortal technology to do them.
What a waste.
"Let's talk about expanding production first."
Hai Daming shook his head helplessly. Since County Chief Lin was unwilling, there was nothing he could do. He had to pass on the message, which was considered the most he could do for Old Fei.
"Chief Lin, expanding production is a very complicated matter. We have already completed the equipment, but the production line for new energy batteries is very sophisticated. Its assembly is a very tedious task that requires experienced engineers to complete. Therefore, the progress is very slow."
Lin Wen nodded: "I see. Where is the production line for exoskeleton armor?"
Haidam said helplessly, "It's the same reason as the new energy battery production line. The equipment is all there, but the assembly is very slow."
"Okay, I'll take care of it." Lin Wen agreed and turned to leave.
Hai Damer shouted, "Hey, County Chief Lin, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Come and fall in love with me when you have time. Young people have active minds and strong abilities. The collision between you and me will surely produce more embryos of inspiration..."
Lin Wen walked faster and soon disappeared.
Hai Damu couldn't catch up and sighed: "Ah, it's so painful to have no inspiration."
But County Chief Lin refused to cooperate, and he had no choice but to bury his head in his work, thinking to himself, "Changshan County is good in every way, except that it lacks institutions of higher learning. I must bring this up at the next meeting."
——
The other side.
Lin Wen came to the new exoskeleton armor factory and saw countless equipment piled up next to the long production line.
Thousands of engineers and technicians are installing it on the production line.
Lin Wen found the chief engineer and asked, "How long will it take?"
The chief engineer was standing in front of tons of drawings, looking at them with a frown on his face.
"Chief Lin, this project is extremely complex. We've built a mature production line system. The original production line was already very complex, and after countless modifications, it became even more complex. It's not a simple matter to install it directly now. It will take at least two months."
Lin Wen frowned and said, "It's been too long. The number of graduates from the Mecha Academy has already reached 150,000."
The chief engineer sighed, "There's nothing we can do. Changshan County's foundation is too weak, and its industrial capacity can't keep up. We've had to cobble together a lot of things. Our engineers are working in two shifts around the clock, and we're so tired that we're almost vomiting blood."
Lin Wen was very unhappy. During World War II, the United States relied on its strong industrial strength to produce warships like dumplings and achieved the final victory.
Why is it that it’s not possible when it’s my turn?
This is a point that must be improved.
"You guys go back and have a rest, and come back for inspection tomorrow." Lin Wen said casually.
The chief engineer finally smiled. "That's great, County Chief Lin is so kind. We really need to take a break."
He raised his voice and shouted, "It's holiday time! County Governor Lin is giving us a holiday! Everyone go back and rest!"
With a loud bang, the engineers on the production line were excited and many of them cried with joy.
"Finally, it's vacation time!"
"I almost don't know what my wife looks like anymore."
"Mom, I'm back!"
Even the chief engineer shouted, "I haven't been home for a year. I wonder if my wife and child have been born yet?"
Rushed into the crowd and went out.
A moment later, the factory was empty, with no one left.
Lin Wen sighed, found a few large rolls of paper, and tore them into pieces.
Concentrate your mind on the fourth magical power [Morning Star of Destiny], and a thin red line will appear.
Lin Wen pointed the thin line at the spell [Paper Man Puppet], and a circle of red appeared on the spell, displaying a line of words.
[Highly enhanced].
The usage of this magical power was recently developed by Lin Wen. It can choose to strengthen a spell or a magical power, just like the previous Destiny Star. The difference is that the effect is stronger, the strengthening time is longer, and it can be freely selected.
And [Paper Puppet] is definitely the most cost-effective enhancement spell.
His soul power is now as high as 800%. One [Paper Puppet] can animate 160 pieces of paper talismans, consuming only 5% of his soul power.
Puppets made of paper are originally very weak and generally not very useful.
But after strengthening, the puppet's strength increases sharply.
More importantly, its intelligence has also increased dramatically, and it can communicate with its owner through telepathy just like clay figurines.
This is very useful.
Lin Wen used the spell a hundred times, expending 500% of his spiritual energy, and endowed 16,000 paper figures with talismans, which he then pasted on all the equipment, parts, and production lines.
Sixteen thousand pieces of talisman paper were no small number. It filled a whole box of scraps of paper, enough to break Lin Wen's waist.
Even after turning on the spirit cat, Lin Wen continued to post it until the sun went down before he finished.
The golden light of the setting sun shines in from the high skylight, covering the entire factory with a layer of golden glow.
Lin Wen stood in the quiet and empty factory, with countless steel equipment clustered around him and various parts spread throughout the factory, making it look like a long-abandoned relic.
"Let's assemble it." Lin Wen said lightly.
With a loud bang.
All the equipment in the factory started moving. They ran, jumped, and rolled onto the production line, came to their respective positions, and tried hard to fit themselves in.
The screws jumped up and were tightened by themselves, and the cables were inserted and hooked by themselves. Lin Wen walked back and forth beside the production line, occasionally helping the robotic arms that could not jump up, the shafts that could not turn over, and the lubricating oil that could not be squeezed out.
The entire exoskeleton armor production line was built and improved with Lin Wen's participation.
Lin Wen knew every secret and every detail of it. He passed the knowledge to the puppets through the mental network so that they could understand their position.
This was a project involving 16,000 senior engineers, who, under Lin Wen's command, completed their tasks with unprecedented efficiency.
When the quiet moonlight shone into the factory through the skylight, the entire factory building had a brand new look.
Neat, clean, without a trace of clutter, the long production line is rigorous and beautiful, full of high-tech atmosphere.
"Let's start." Lin Wen said.
With a rumble, the production line started working. The feeder put the materials onto the assembly line for heating, shaping, and loading. Countless robotic arms were moving, countless devices were working, and countless indicator lights were flashing.
The main power supply to the production line has not even been connected.
An hour later, the trial run was over, and a sample exoskeleton armor passed the test and was labeled with two big words written on it.
"qualified"
"Let's debug it." Lin Wen said.
The production line started moving again, but it was not working, but trembling.
The entire production line was shaking as if there was an earthquake, and all parts were undergoing more fine-tuned details to achieve absolute precision.
Thirty minutes later, the debugging was completed and Lin Wen tried it again.
This time, the production line started working at full speed.
Fortunately, the warehouse was nearby, and Lin Wen moved the materials over without much effort.
More than an hour later, one hundred sets of exoskeleton power armor were produced, and after testing, the quality of all of them reached "excellent".
"very good."
Lin Wen was very happy. The production line met the standards completely. As long as there were enough materials, producing 3,000 sets per hour would not be a problem.
Exoskeleton armor actually has high technical content and uses far less materials than tanks. After modular production, it is not even as complicated as tanks.
After fully achieving assembly line production, the output can be very high, much faster than semi-manually manufactured tanks.
In this way, more good brothers will soon join the battlefield.
According to Lin Wen's observation, the more Iron Brothers there are, the more powerful they are, and the perfect tactical system can accommodate more soldiers.
"Elder Sen should be able to be bulldozed soon."
Lin Wen thought.
"This guy is up to something again. My bad karma is skyrocketing again. Damn, it's increased by another hundred points. Go to hell right now."
Lin Wen was a little anxious. In order to cope with his strong pressure, Lin Yabo seemed to start creating gray zombies crazily.
That thing is human life.
Not only that, now after taking over three states, he hasn't seen much good karma, but the bad karma has been increasing rapidly, and he can't bear it anymore.
"As expected, we can't expand our territory rashly. The connections of bad karma are much wider than those of good karma. We must not rashly allow other states to join the alliance. We must clean them up first."
"Sen Yabo needs to die soon. This thing is a disaster. I'm afraid I won't be able to reincarnate as long as he's around."
Lin Wen quickly rushed into the energy factory and copied his operations in the armored factory.
By dawn, the energy plant's production line was completed.
However, since he was relatively unfamiliar with the energy production line, he used a lot of [Immortal Guidance] and [Asking the Way from Heaven], which consumed a lot of his spirit and luck.
"There is still a lot to do, I have to save some money." Lin Wen thought.
However, although the production line has been greatly expanded, it does not mean that the production capacity can be increased immediately. Other production capacities must also keep up.
Lin Wen has been busy with these things these days, but he has restrained himself a little because Mr. Li came to tell him that he can no longer hold it in.
The matter of the two production lines caused a huge uproar in the scientific community of Changshan County. These scientific engineers were difficult to fool in the first place, and now that it had become such a big deal, it exposed loopholes in his previous theories.
Although Lin Wen was very anxious, he still slowed down his pace.
After all, Changshan County still needs science, and County Chief Lin’s scientific image still needs to be maintained.
"It's so fucking tiring. It's like being a celebrity in a relationship. You have to hide and the agency has to come out and put out fires everywhere."
Lin Wen felt deeply tired.
The world of science is really too troublesome. It’s more satisfying to beat up immortals and gods without any burden in the world of cultivation.
Lin Wen let out a long sigh.
When can I get over there?
Huangmao, when are you going to snatch the senior sister away? I can’t hold back all my magic powers and luck.
well.
