Chapter 992

The machine armor in front is different from the original goods of ancient elves seen in the Lich tomb before, and even from the imperial test machine that came to this replica world to rob for the last time.

Even though the details of the above two are slightly different, on the whole, they look like a super enlarged version of a knight dressed in heavy armor. At a glance, people think it is a huge statue of a famous knight.

The magic guide armour in front of an Yizhi brings a feeling of "cheap goods all over"

Its armor plates are not completely covered. It can be seen that only those plates cover important parts, such as cockpit and joints, and many mechanical structures are directly exposed.

The more obvious change is its head.

The original V-shaped visor like a knight's helmet is still missing, replaced by a one eyed + German World War II helmet

In other words, the shape of the exposed power pipe and one eye is really like zagu.

Haila popped her head out of the dimensional pocket. She turned on her arcane vision, scanned the magic guide armor up and down, and said:

"It seems that the imperial army has optimized the creation of ancient elves to a great extent."

"Optimization?"

Are you sure it's not deterioration? Anyway, the force has dropped a lot.

Haila flapped her wings and landed on ANN's shoulder and said:

"The Imperial Army transformed it on a large scale. From the appearance, the expensive anti magic armor was replaced by cheap special steel, and only wrapped the important key points without too much pursuit of all-round protection. The skeleton part was also changed from an alloy that was difficult to produce on a large scale to a more efficient Alchemy product. At the same time, they slightly reduced the size and removed the vast majority of the original magic guide armor Most built-in weapons and special systems only retain the main framework. "

Pointing to the ladder on one side with her wings, Haila led an Yizhi and apple tea to the cockpit, and continued to explain:

"The magic guide technicians of the Empire are very smart. They understand the importance of modularization. Each part can be disassembled and replaced at will, which not only saves the cost, but also makes the maintenance very convenient. Even the driver can drive the magic guide armor to replace his arms. At the same time, the benefits of modularization also allow the magic guide armor to be strengthened and specialized at will. What needs to be performed It's a great idea to equip it with specific equipment when it's on a mission. Look at its feet. There are wheels under it. It's estimated that it's added in preparation for a mission that needs a long-distance attack recently. It's made into a disposable structure at any time, which greatly facilitates the preparation work. "

An Yizhi saw that there were indeed two rows of wheels on the soles under the mecha. At first glance, it was like zagu wearing straight wheels

"The above transformation has greatly reduced the manufacturing cost of the magic guide armour, and also greatly reduced the energy consumption. I estimate that its current cost is only one tenth of the original cost, and its energy consumption is less than one twentieth. It can use the alchemy core of the large magic image to provide power and turn it into a semi permanent alchemy creature. However, the price of the alchemy core is too expensive, which is ahead of mass production In addition, the Empire still applies the external energy backpack, which is easy to replace and the charging price is relatively cheap. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is certainly reduced compared with the original. It is conservatively estimated that it can leave half of the original combat effectiveness. If additional arms and equipment are included, it can retain at least two-thirds of the original. It is already a mature war weapon and is suitable for large-scale mass production. "

"After talking for a long time, isn't this a miscellaneous soldier?"

Hella rolled her eyes and pointed to a wrench on the chest of the mecha with her wings. It was the mechanism to open the cockpit. She was too lazy to correct her master's common sense mistakes.

An Yizhi's impression of large humanoid robots mainly comes from entertainment products such as animated films and comic games. In his impression, such things should be "sky high price experimental machines to save the world, miscellaneous fish mass production machines to make soy sauce convenient." magic guide machine armor should be stronger and stronger, not weaker.

But in fact, the empire is right. After all, people are neither middle two nor stupid.

No matter how advanced a weapon is, its role in war is limited to one or two war zones. The overall situation still depends on the support of miscellaneous soldiers.

War is never a game for a few people. It needs the help of thousands of people and the support of the whole country.

In the context of the overall national war, any unit can be unconditionally sacrificed. The focus is to make these cannon fodder sacrifice more valuable, which is also what the military staff should do every day.

Therefore, it is meaningless to blindly pursue the quality of a single weapon in war.

Weapons that are really suitable for large-scale war should be usable, simple to operate, cheap and easy to mass produce.

From this point of view, the Empire changed the magic guide armor beyond recognition. In fact, it is a very wise judgment, because it can be produced on a large scale at a low price. Even though it is impossible to have one for each soldier at the current productivity, it is enough to form a very strong combat effectiveness by distributing it to the battalion level or even the company level.

Of course, it can't be used to deal with the magic city, but there are other city states on the other side of the Empire, which is also the most suitable stage for these mass-produced magic guide mecha. As long as they appear on the battlefield, they can bring a strong morale boosting effect to their own side, and the opposite side will even break down and cause the army to collapse.

An Yi did not understand these, he was still disappointed that the performance of the magic guide armor was low.

He stretched out his hand to open the cockpit and sat in, while Apple Tea stood behind the cockpit. Thanks to his short halfling, otherwise there would be no way to put two people in the narrow cockpit.

It can also be seen from here that the magic guide machine armor is cheap.

The last time I robbed the Imperial Army test machine, the magic guide machine armor of others was in a two seat configuration, one was responsible for driving, and the other acted as a weapon officer.

This time, there is only one driver's seat left. After all, a large number of built-in weapons and functions are removed, and one person can operate it completely.

The controller has also changed a little. In the past, there were two soft control balls, but now they have become two metal cages that can be inserted into the arm. Haila said that it is a device that can read the action, that is, the action capture system that has long appeared in reality.

This change not only further reduces the cost, but also makes the control of the mecha easier to use. Even if you haven't touched it at all, you can drive it to fight as long as you get familiar with it for a few minutes.

As the cockpit door closes, the display in front lights up

Still full of a sense of cheapness.

In the past, it was a 360 ° Sunday display. There was no dead corner up, down, left and right. This time, only a square screen was left, which can only display the front. Although it can swing around with the driver's head, it is still a little weaker than the Sunday display. No wonder they changed one eye. It is estimated that it is cheap

This sense of cheapness has broken an Yizhi's driving experience again and again, which makes him very disappointed. However, again, the mass production machine is the mass production machine. It has taken so much effort. Can't you go back empty handed?

According to the memory of last driving, Ann reached out and pressed the start button

Nothing happened.

"No energy?"

Haila thought:

"Emmmm... The energy is full. The Empire should have locked the mecha."

The empire is really not stupid.

It's just that the testing machine is not locked. After all, it's just a machine manufactured for experimental purposes. How can a formal mass production machine not be equipped with a special start key?

Turning to the apple tea tucked behind the driver's seat, Haila said:

"You should have a drawer on your head... No?"

"Really not. There's a solid behind it."

Apple tea stalls helpless.

What Haila is looking for is an input device. Anyway, even if there is a startup key, it is not difficult to crack with Haila's ability, but there is no input device

The empire can really save

Fortunately, there are alternative solutions. In the previous copy, an Yi pointed to dismantle the core of the brass magic image, get a "keyboard", let Apple Tea find an excuse in the cockpit, and then plug it in.

Thanks to this, otherwise even Haila could do nothing.

"The key is not too difficult. In the final analysis, the main part of the mecha is still the product of ancient elves. Even if they can use it, they don't understand the specific principle. The added startup key is not closely connected with the main system. Give me a minute or two to exclude it."

There is still plenty of time. Apple Tea estimated that it would take a few minutes for the patrol to find the body of the guard at the door, which is completely enough for Haila to break the key and start the mecha.

After the magic guide machine a starts, it doesn't matter whether it will be found or not.

An Yi pointed out that their plan was to start the magic guide mecha as quickly as possible, then smash all the other mecha when they didn't start, and finally run faster with this mecha. It was impossible to catch up with it at the speed of infantry.

The plan is so simple and rough. There are no problems in the implementation, but there is still a deviation in the result

When Hella was trying to crack the fit of the start key, the headlights on the top of the hangar suddenly lit up. An Yizhi saw the warehouse door slowly open through the one eye viewfinder. Three magic guide mecha came in from behind the big exaggerated door, and two of them pointed to the cockpit with a special long sword.

"Lying trough, this is unscientific."

Apple tea dares to bet his head that he has never miscalculated the patrol time of the patrol team. In theory, it should take several minutes to be found. Moreover, it also takes time for the other party to start the magic guide armor.

"Gee, I guess we were exposed from the beginning."

Ann hit his mouth with a finger. All kinds of signs showed that they were noticed as soon as they entered the barracks, even before they entered, and the other party simply invited the king into the urn and took the plan.

The only question is, when did you expose yourself?

Apple tea's stealth ability is quite excellent. If it is exposed after entering the military camp, it is most likely that an Yizhi has dragged his feet.

But if it's before entering the barracks... Can someone leak the secret?

This is also wrong, because I know that Ann Yizhi only plans to have apple tea and Rhett, can't it be them?

An Yizhi is confused here.
