Let's set aside cold weapons.
This new mech is also equipped with a considerable number of firearms.
"Thanks to its massive size, the mech has a very spacious interior."
Mako Mori magnified the holographic image again, and the mecha's two hands began to deform, collapsing like building blocks, before a huge hole popped out.
"Its palms are equipped with the latest I-24 Plasma Cannon, which are two generations more advanced than the I-22 model equipped by Crimson Typhoon. According to calculations, it would only take two shots at most to completely penetrate a fourth-generation monster."
"Furthermore, thanks to the application of multi-directional synchronous energy storage technology, the energy storage time for each plasma cannon has been reduced from 6.8 seconds for the I-22 model to 1.9 seconds."
"Furthermore, its left hand houses a cannon thruster, and its right hand a liquid nitrogen freezer; its wrist is equipped with a retractable ultra-high-voltage electric bayonet; its elbow is fitted with a rocket propulsion device similar to that of the Gipsy Danger, increasing punching speed; and its shoulder is equipped with the Striker Eureka's six-linked missiles..."
The upper arms are equipped with protective armor and assault spikes. When a monster lunges at the side of the mech and a stalemate ensues, the massive spikes can be activated to pierce the monster's body.
Mako Mori kept flipping through the thick instruction manual for the mecha...
The crowd listened quietly, with some team members from the Wandering Spacetime team occasionally letting out sounds of surprise.
Participating in the design of this kind of mecha was also a new experience for them.
Looking at the thick stack of documents in her hand, Zhang Tianyuan felt that Mako Mori could talk until next year.
Because you can tell from the holographic image of the mecha that its internal space is really large, and its weight is nearly twice that of other mechas, so it can naturally carry more things.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his entire body was a weapon.
Zhang Tianyuan casually flipped open the instruction manual and saw that the mecha was equipped with electric shock needles on its rear end...
Is this to prevent monsters from using the Thousand-Year Kill technique?
So he stopped Mako Mori from continuing her introduction, "Let's keep it brief, just introduce the main equipment."
"Yes!" Mako Mori immediately agreed, quickly flipping through the instruction manual until she reached a specific page. "This mech has an ultra-high temperature plasma jet on its chest and chin, similar to a plasma cannon, but also different."
"The plasma ejected from these two nozzles is actually waste from a nuclear fusion reactor. It's much hotter than plasma projectiles, but its condensation is far less, making it more likely to cause widespread and severe burns to the monster."
Zhang Tianyuan nodded and flipped to the same page. The instruction manual stated that this was based on data showing that the mecha's damage rate was highest when the monster and the mecha were in close proximity.
These two jets are to prevent the monster from grabbing the mech head-on.
"In normal operation, we have installed four sets of thrust reversers on each side of the mech's waist, legs, and shoulder blades, which can effectively reduce the slow movement speed caused by the mech's weight."
"Based on our estimates, this mech's movement speed is at least on par with the Striker Eureka."
A mech that is 156 meters tall and can reach the movement speed of a fifth-generation mech is already quite remarkable.
So far, this mech sounds perfect.
But Zhang Tianyuan knew that nothing in the world is perfect.
Even in the world of movies, and even with previous technological accumulation, it would be impossible to design such a flawless mech in just four months.
"So, where exactly is the problem with this mech?"
Mako Mori clutched the instruction manual tightly and said without hesitation, " Drift System."
"Its design concept predates the first generation of mechs, but it failed to win the bid. Currently, we can hardly estimate how much neural computing power so many systems would require for a pilot to perfectly fly this mech."
Neural computing power, simply put, is brainpower. Only with sufficient brainpower can a pilot withstand the neural stress brought by the mecha system.
What's even more amazing is that the two people's synesthetic connection, even though their brainpower only doubled, allowed the mecha's operational bandwidth to increase exponentially.
That's why piloting a mech solo has become a rare occurrence.
The pressure faced by one person piloting a mech is not half that of two people piloting one, but increases exponentially.
Zhang Tianyuan pondered for a moment and then asked, "So what are you planning to do next?"
Mako Mori tentatively replied, "We might need to create some physical prototypes, connect them to the neural control system, and conduct a real measurement to determine how many pilots we need."
Zhang Tianyuan closed his eyes and thought for a while, then opened them again and asked, "Is the current design complete?"
"Uh..." Mako Mori was clearly taken aback for a moment, "It's complete, but we only used the most primitive single-person system for the Drift System, which is for measurement..."
"That's good. Bring your design drawings and come with me."
As he spoke, Zhang Tianyuan stood up and walked forward, and the black Spacetime Tunnel had already unfolded.
Mako Mori didn't know where the chairman was taking them, but she immediately followed along with the others, carrying the printed blueprints.
Hundreds of thousands of pages of mecha blueprints were neatly stacked on a cart, which was slowly pushed through the Spacetime Tunnel by the crowd.
On the other side of the tunnel was a spacious building.
There were soldiers guarding the area, and they immediately surrounded them and saluted when they saw them appear.
"This is the interior of the design institute in No. 2 Spacetime. This should be your first time here," Zhang Tianyuan explained briefly.
Upon hearing this, Mako Mori looked around curiously.
This was indeed her first time in No. 2 Spacetime.
Some people worried, "I heard before that there's a special Mutavore in this dimension..."
Zhang Tianyuan turned around and calmly replied:
"Don't worry, you were already vaccinated with the KV Vaccine before you set off. This is a standard procedure for all Mutual Aid Society branches."
All personnel traveling to other timelines on official business must be vaccinated with the KV Vaccine.
Upon hearing this, Mako Mori and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned her gaze back to what was in front of her.
In the open space, only a large, compass-like sculpture stood in front, and the soldiers who had just been there were mainly surrounding this statue, clearly protecting it.
This puzzled her.
Is there anything special about this statue?
Just as she was getting curious, Zhang Tianyuan gestured for everyone to place the mecha design blueprints under the compass.
Although Mako Mori was puzzled, she still chose to do as she had done before.
The surrounding soldiers also came over to help skillfully.
Once all the drawings were delivered to the compass sculpture, Mako Mori breathed a slight sigh of relief and was the last to emerge.
The very next second, she felt something moving in the corner of her eye...
I turned around and looked.
The compass sculpture standing in the center of the venue suddenly began to slowly rotate, with its grounded leg as the center.
They've arrived.
What's even more absurd is that as it spins, the blueprints they just put in are flying up one by one, making a constant rustling sound...
Like a magic trick, the blueprints they had just put in were now floating in the air, dancing gracefully with the giant compass sculpture.
"This..."
Looking at the dreamlike scene before her, Mako Mori immediately turned her gaze to Zhang Tianyuan: "President, what is this?"
Zhang Tianyuan gestured for her to calm down, "This is a special building that allows for... enchanting-like operations on the blueprints. You'll see in a moment."
Mako Mori was completely confused, but seeing the soldiers' nonchalant expressions, she understood that it probably wasn't a big deal.
All the soldiers and Zhang Tianyuan waited quietly for the blueprints to be enchanted.
This Level 1 Design Institute has been completed for eight months, with an enchanting opportunity every 60 days.
Apart from the first use in the gas sterilization tunnel, the remaining four opportunities were basically used for experiments.
The second time, they sent in the blueprints for an aircraft carrier, only to find that the design institute had also perfectly "enchanted" it.
Using the enchanted blueprints, a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier can be built in just one month.
In addition, it also provides a slight bonus to the safety of fighter jet takeoffs and landings.
However, that's not the key point.
Most importantly, after this experiment, Zhang Tianyuan discovered that the design institute seemed to have a very broad definition of "architecture".
Even aircraft carrier blueprints can be put into effect... w.
Doesn't that mean...?
Planetary Engine are also buildings?
There's even an underground city inside.
So, from the third to the fifth time, the blueprints Zhang Tianyuan submitted were all for Planetary Engine that Wandering Spacetime.
As he expected, it was a perfect enchantment as well.
Once enough materials are prepared and the enchanted blueprints are used, the 11-kilometer-tall Planetary Engine can begin construction automatically.
Even more astonishingly, the Planetary Engine built using blueprints only took a year to complete.
This also means that the Mutual Aid Society can now wholesale Planetary Engine.
Therefore, Zhang Tianyuan stockpiled two more enchantment blueprints for Planetary Engine, just in case.
But this is a new experiment.
The results suggest that this design institute does indeed have some issues with its understanding of architecture.
You can even enchant mechs like buildings now?
Looking at the blueprints fluttering in the air, Zhang Tianyuan also had some doubts.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the flying blueprints decreased one by one, and their speed also slowed down. When the compass came to a complete stop, all the blueprints disappeared as well.
Instead, a sliver of starlight drifted slowly down from the sky, landing on the sculpture's base and illuminating the entire area.
Zhang Tianyuan opened the system panel with practiced ease.
Sure enough, a new blueprint was found in the backpack:
[Siege Unit - Unnamed]
[ Monster Bane ]: Increases damage dealt to all non-human life forms by 30%, and reduces damage dealt to the mech by 30% when non-human life forms inflict damage.
[ Cleaving Heaven and Earth ]: The giant axe's impact on mech balance is greatly reduced. The first swing after picking up the giant axe will gain a 300% impact power bonus.
[Construction Time]: 1 month
It actually has two attributes.
Zhang Tianyuan raised an eyebrow and asked Mako Mori, "Have you named this mecha yet?"
The other person shook their head, looking somewhat dazed.
"What do you think about calling it ' Pangu '?"
