NOVEL NEXT Chapter 6 One mecha and one company
"2 minutes and 56 seconds! That's awesome! It's truly a work of genius."
Zhou Ran raised his wrist.
In less than three minutes, Xiao Luo completed the entire test. For ordinary people, it would take at least ten minutes to complete the entire test venue on foot, let alone the test on the road.
However, Xiao Luo is a mecha, so the criteria for judging are naturally different.
"With such an excellent mecha, wouldn't it be a pity not to have a confrontation?"
"Chen Ping, what do you think?"
Yang Huali looked at Chen Ping. Although he seemed to be asking for Chen Ping's opinion, it was obvious that the expectant expression on Yang Huali's face had already told Chen Ping the answer.
"No problem, it's just... I don't know how many people Researcher Zhou plans to fight against Xiao Luo."
Chen Ping looked indifferent. Confrontation has always been the tradition of the Xia Kingdom and can create a certain amount of healthy competition.
"Several people?"
In fact, Zhou Ran is not optimistic about the mecha project. He still firmly believes in his heart that war is a human war. No matter how advanced the technology is, the future battlefield will still be unable to escape human control.
Therefore, it is most correct to improve individual weapons and equipment.
Not only Zhou Ran, but also the entire Individual Soldier Equipment Research Institute basically has this consensus.
"How about three people? If I let the soldiers wear the Heavenly Weapon System, I wonder if this mecha named Xiao Luo can fight against it?"
Zhou Ran raised his hand and made three fingers.
Chen Ran shook his head, feeling that Zhou Ran thought too highly of his Heavenly Weapon System. Xiao Luo had a more complete and comprehensive auxiliary program than the Heavenly Weapon System.
"Three people is too many?"
Zhou Ran obviously misunderstood what Chen Ran meant.
"I mean too few, at least one company!"
What?
A company?
That's more than a hundred people.
How can that iron lump that is half a man tall be able to fight against so many people?
Zhou Ran was suddenly a little disappointed with Chen Ping. Although Chen Ping could develop Xiao Luo, he was too arrogant and was really not the character a weapons developer should have.
"Is there a lot of people with more than a hundred people? If you are just equipped with conventional weapons, even if you add your heavenly weapon system, there is basically no hope of winning."
mad!
So crazy!
Zhou Ran's face turned red. This guy simply didn't know how high the sky was. Not only did he look down on the combat effectiveness of a company, but he even questioned the system of heavenly soldiers that he had spent several years developing.
"What if I add my exoskeleton to assist?"
Gu Pengfei on the side suddenly said.
In fact, among the works of Zhou Ran and the others, Chen Ping feels that the most valuable one right now is Gu Pengfei's exoskeleton system. Once deployed on a large scale, hundreds of thousands or millions of superhuman beings can be created out of thin air. Although Gao Yuzhu's "Iron Rain" is terrifying, it is not suitable for large-scale installation.
Once a person is equipped with an exoskeleton, his strength can be increased several times out of thin air, and his combat power is greatly improved.
But Chen Ping thought for a moment and still shook his head.
It's not that Chen Ping wants to belittle the company's combat effectiveness, or even look down on the research and development works of Zhou Ran and others. It's just that Zhou Ran and the others don't understand the horror of Xiao Luo. Not to mention other things, Xiao Luo, as a machine, can drag humans to death just by relying on combat endurance.
"Then, what about my Iron Rain?"
Gao Yuzhu said coldly.
Gao Yuzhu, who originally had a good impression of Chen Ping's talent, was now extremely disappointed. She felt that Chen Ping was too arrogant and immature!
"Researcher Gao, I have to remind you that your Iron Rain is a weapon of mass destruction, and it can easily cause casualties when used against it. Moreover, Xiao Luo only has this one at the moment, and it is still an experimental machine. It is very expensive!"
Yang Huali reminded that he was worried that these young people would get angry and cause irreparable losses, which would lose the original meaning of confrontation.
"If it's just one or two Iron Rains, there's no problem. I believe Xiao Luo."
Chen Ping said calmly.
Gao Yuzhu's face showed an imperceptible disdain. Her impression of Chen Ran had dropped to the freezing point at this moment. There is no limit to the madness. No matter how talented a person like this is, there is no way he will be admitted to the China Overseas Research Institute.
"Change the blanks and let the confrontation begin!"
Seeing that he could not dissuade many people, Yang Huali had no choice but to order them all to be replaced with blank ammunition.
Soon, the confrontation began.
Zhou Ran and the other three are a team of more than 100 people, all equipped with the Heavenly Weapon System and exoskeleton assistance; in terms of firepower, there are two "Iron Rain" cannons, all members are equipped with Type 95, 12 general-purpose machine guns, and sniper There are three soldiers, equipped with anti-armor equipment for sniping.
On Chen Ping's side, there was only Xiao Luo.
"System, contact me Xiao Luo. Don't hurt anyone, just disarm them."
An idea came to Chen Ping's mind.
As long as it is a mecha produced by Chen Ping, he can directly contact the mecha through his own system without being restricted by distance.
"Chen Ping, let me see how crazy you are!"
Zhou Ran felt a little teasing in his heart and made up his mind to teach Chen Ping a lesson.
When the action began, Xiao Luo quickly rushed out of his hiding place and rushed straight to the company's position.
"Oh, you're looking for death!"
Zhou Ran looked at Xiao Luo's movements and sneered in his heart.
The company also quickly made operational tactics. A small number of people would roam throughout the confrontation area, perform search and reconnaissance tasks, and be responsible for luring Xiao Luo into the range of fire. The remaining people would directly stick to their positions and rely on The firepower advantage covers Xiao Luo.
Soldier 1: On a reconnaissance mission, no target found in Area A.
Soldier 2: Everything is normal in area B, no target found.
Company Captain: No. 3, please be careful. There is no target found in areas AB. It is most likely in your area C. Be careful to mark the target signal position and don't expose it yet.
Soldier Three: Got it, Number Three.
"Da da da……"
"Ahhh! Monster! It's on the roof!!"
In the Heavenly Soldier System, Soldier No. 2's screams were heard, and then the green dot representing him went out.
The company captain's entire face darkened.
Number 2 had already reported that the situation was normal before being attacked. It was obvious that the enemy was already lurking in Area B before Number 2 arrived at Area B.
Obviously, the Tianbing's detection system did not detect the other party's existence at all.
At this moment, in Area C, Xiao Luo stood on the roof, his two mechanical eyes locked on the No. 3 investigator downstairs. The mechanical arm slowly raised, an electric arc popped out, and then he jumped down.
No. 3 seemed to hear a faint "beep" sound. Turning around suddenly, a mecha half as tall as a man was suddenly in front of him, with a pair of blood-red mechanical eyes staring at him.
No. 3 felt a chill in his heart. It was over, and he hurriedly pulled the trigger!
"Da da da"
"Da da da……"
No. 3 fell to the ground weakly, and the paralysis caused by the electric current caused his muscles to twitch uncontrollably.
The company captain had never been so nervous as he was today. In less than five minutes, the sent out reconnaissance posts were eliminated one by one, and the green dots representing them disappeared from the sky weapon system.
The heavenly weapons did not function as expected.
The situation was critical. From the voice coming from No. 2, I learned that the mecha was likely to attack the position through the roof. The company captain hastily adjusted the formation and mobilized part of the firepower to defend the roof.
