Chapter 1 (Volume 23) Encounter on the Road
In fact, when we finally left, the plane we took was not our own plane, and of course it was not a civil aviation flight, but a cargo plane.
The original mission of this plane was to transport special supplies to an American military base, but it was temporarily assigned a mission to drop us off in a loop over Japan. This is the annoying thing about flying for free. You don’t even stop at the station and are thrown off immediately.
I have to say that the Americans' airdrop technology is really good. Our car was accurately dropped on a small open space on the roadside. Originally, I was worried that they would be in the wrong place. Of course, it’s okay even if it’s thrown crookedly. Anyway, with our strength, as long as the car doesn’t fall into the sea, we can lift it back to the road directly.
After the car accurately landed on the ground, we also landed next to the car one after another. After driving off the platform, he turned directly onto the coastal road.
This road is quite beautiful and not suitable for transportation, but it is fun to drive. The winding road rises and falls with almost no straight road exceeding 50 meters, and the maximum height difference for every 100 meters on average can exceed 1 meter. It is almost a constant ups and downs.
There are many mountains in Japan, so the coastal roads have to be built in an undulating state in order to adapt to the terrain, but the slope is not large. Although the curves are frequent, the curvature selection is also very good. In addition, one side of the road is dense forest and the other side is the sea, so the environment is quite good. I believe that people who like driving pleasure and couples traveling by car will like this road very much, but it will be a shame if you are in a hurry. It's really good that the road is repaired as soon as possible, but unfortunately there are too many curves. It is very difficult for ordinary cars to go fast on this kind of surface. Even those sports cars have a hard time really adding up speed on this kind of road surface because the curvy road blocks the view. You can't see the oncoming car at all, and although the lanes on this kilometer are very wide, there are only two lanes, one forward and one reverse. This means that any car that wants to overtake must occupy the reverse lane because there is no overtaking lane at all. Let you overtake.
Driving slowly on this kind of road is fun, but trying to go faster is a pain. certainly. This doesn't include us. With satellite assistance and electromagnetic scanning, we can easily confirm all obstacles within five kilometers ahead, so there is no emergency situation for us, so it doesn't matter if we want to be faster.
After our car turned onto the road, I felt quite awkward. The reason is that Japanese roads drive on the left, but the cab of our car is on the left and follows American regulations. So it feels quite awkward to drive on this kind of road. In fact, even if we use a Japanese car to drive this road, it would be quite awkward for us, because we have never driven on the left side of the road before.
There were very few vehicles on this road. We ran for almost two kilometers before we saw a rival car. Even in the five kilometers ahead in my satellite scan, there were only five cars and three cars going in the same direction as us. A reverse car. It can be said that this is a quite remote road. However, the Americans deliberately chose this location when airdropping, mainly because there are few cars in this place. If you miss the target and fall in the middle of the road, the risk is lower.
After turning a sharp bend of nearly 180 degrees, the road curve in front of us became much better, and the speed of the car began to increase. The speed limit on the road here is 60 kilometers, but I have already driven 160 kilometers. Of course, I will slow down slightly when turning. But still exceeding the speed limit.
Of course, at this speed, I quickly caught up with the car in front, and then passed the battery car directly. After passing more than a dozen cars along the way, we arrived at the foot of a mountain.
The road has a Y-shaped fork here. But there are no cars at all, and there seems to be less traffic on the road in front of it. After all, it is already around 7pm or almost 8pm here in Japan, and everyone who should be home at this time is already home. Naturally there won't be many people on the road.
When we passed the section at the foot of the mountain, we found that there was a place similar to a highway service station. There was a large bus station, a convenience store and a gas station. On the other side, there was a quite large parking lot towards the sea. Looking at the scenery, there is a beach below from the trail.
Of course we won't go down to play in the sand, but the convenience store is within reach for us. We haven't eaten properly since yesterday. Although we dragons can control the circulation in the body to save energy and survive for several years, the problem is that being hungry and wanting to eat are two completely different issues. Just like snacks, it’s perfectly fine not to eat them, but many people like to eat them. Although we don’t necessarily have to eat three meals a day, the problem is that we will be hungry. Even if it doesn’t have any actual impact, being hungry is so uncomfortable! Besides, almost all of us dragons are foodies, and hunger is something we fear more than our enemies.
Parking the car in front of the supermarket, we all ran into the store except Everett and started looking for something to eat.
You have to expect to find something good in a store like a highway service station. Convenient and fast bagged food is one of the only options. But quite unexpectedly, this store actually sells oden, which actually allowed us to find something good.
In fact, the taste of oden in China is different from that in Japan. Of course, the difference is not particularly big, but after eating it, you will find that it is quite obvious. I feel that the taste here in Japan is better, at least there is no obvious flour taste. But this thing is a matter of taste, and everyone's preferences may be different.
A few of us finished almost everything in the small oden stall in the store before leaving the stall with satisfaction. Xiaochun also took away a bunch of puffed food before coming out. Although this thing is unhealthy, it has no effect on us anyway. Whether it is healthy or not is calculated based on human standards. As far as our bodies are concerned, even if we eat chemical raw materials, we can still absorb them. This puffed food is not a problem at all.
When we got everything done and came out, we were stunned by the situation outside, because the parking lot outside was almost empty before entering the convenience store. Counting our car, there were only three cars parked there, and one of them was obviously It's this convenience store truck. However, the situation outside now is completely different from when we first entered. The parking lot was almost full right now, with at least seventy or eighty cars packed tightly together. The parking lots in front of the convenience store and in front of the observation deck were full, leaving many cars with nowhere to park in the grass on the road.
"Holy shit. It feels like I've traveled through time!" Yeyue said while looking at the surrounding situation. After all, the outside changes a lot when you go in and out.
With so many cars, of course there will be many people. There are at least several hundred people here now, and there are cars coming from behind. It looked like there might be some activity here, but we didn't have much interest in it and walked directly to our car.
Although we have no interest in what these people are doing, some people seem to be very interested in our cars. As we approached our car we noticed a small circle of people gathered in front of us. One of the guys actually got under the car. When we came over, he just climbed out of the ground, and then shouted excitedly to the people around him: "Guess what I saw? NSR's zero-damping electromagnetic suspension shock absorber" The device is an elongated one and seems to be a custom-made model.”
"Are you kidding? When did NSR accept external orders?" A guy with yellow hair retorted.
A relatively calm guy in his late thirties next to him held his chin and said: "The car should be military. The steering wheel is on the left, which means it is a foreign car. This license plate is not our country's license plate. It should be American. Cars in military bases. If it is an order from the military, I think NSR would take it."
"Would you like to take a look at the engine?" Huang Mao asked, "For such a big car, the engine should be pretty awesome, right?"
"The military vehicles may all be models we haven't seen before," said a guy with a nose ring.
"Then open your eyes." The guy who just got under the car was about to lift the hood in excitement, but was pulled back by the calm guy.
"It's best not to move. This is a US military vehicle, and those guys are unreasonable. When the time comes, you won't have anywhere to complain if you are beaten."
"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, how can we suffer a loss? As long as we don't suffer a loss at the time of the trouble, the county court will definitely help our people afterwards, and everything will be fine."
It was probably Huang Mao's words that convinced this man. Or maybe he really wanted to take a look, so he finally let go. Without saying anything, Huang Mao pulled the switch under the front of the car and pressed it. It didn't pull, but the guy immediately took out a small tool from his body, which seemed to be specially used to open the hood, and inserted it into the front. With a click, the front hood of our car popped up a little, obviously the lock was unlocked. It seems that this is not the first time this kid has done this. He will definitely not be able to do this without practicing this technique hundreds or thousands of times.
After opening the engine cover lock, Huang Mao immediately opened the engine cover excitedly, and then stood there stunned. "Hey...where's the engine?"
"Is it an electric car?" The calm guy immediately discovered the problem, looked down at the car and said, "Sure enough, there is no exhaust device. This is an electric car."
"Holy shit, electric?" People around were excited, because the output power of an electric motor is much higher than that of an internal combustion engine in the same volume, so generally speaking, if this car is electric, it means that its output may be Very scary.
This group of people were obviously car enthusiasts and were very familiar with this thing. One of the guys quickly ran to the wheel and squatted down. Then he took a quick look and found the buckle position on the wheel hub. He used a small tool to Twist and pull to remove the outer steel ring protective cover. However, what was revealed inside made everyone's jaws almost drop.
"Are you kidding me? This is... this is..."
"You read that right. Plasma strong magnetic positioning type shaft-integrated electromagnetic engine." The young man said with shrinking lips: "Didn't you say that this thing is used internally by Longyuan Group?"
A very fashionable girl next to her asked with twinkling eyes: "This thing seems to be very expensive, right?"
"Expensive?" said a tall guy next to him: "This wheel can buy your brother three cars, and it is for internal use, not for takeout at all. If this is not a model specially produced by Longyuan for Americans, It was created by someone through abnormal channels. It’s really exaggerated that this kind of monster can go on the road. Before, I thought this thing was really only used by Longyuan’s electromagnetic tanks!”
"Aren't all the four wheels of this thing like this?" Huang Mao asked.
The calm young man next to him said: "For military off-road vehicles, four-wheel drive is a basic requirement, right? The owner of this car can even get such a thing, so it must be four electromagnetic drive wheels, but the front and rear wheels may not be one type of motor. , but even if the rear wheel is an ordinary electric wheel, it’s no big deal. This thing may not run slower than our car.”
A strong-looking guy next to him suddenly stretched out his hand to clasp the bottom of the car and tried to lift it up. Then he let go and said: "At least over five tons, this car can't run fast. Although the electric motor is very powerful, but The battery cannot have such a large output, and for the sake of travel, it cannot discharge all the power at once, right? The instantaneous output should not be high, and this vehicle is probably just a regular military off-road vehicle."
"It's such a waste that such a good motor can only be used to run at a turtle speed. I really want to dismantle this wheel and use it myself!" said Huang Mao next to him.
The calm young man immediately said: "Forget it about fighting, you don't want to die for stealing the US military's things? Do you remember Tuhara who was beaten to death in Sanri Town?"
The people around me stopped talking when they heard this, and at this time my voice also sounded behind them. "Would you guys please consider helping me put the wheel rim protective cover back on first?"
The group of people were startled when they suddenly heard the sound, but then they remembered that there were many people there, so they were not too scared, so they all turned around and looked towards us. At this time, we all took off our power armor and put it in the car, but the combat uniforms we wore confirmed to these people that we were indeed members of the military.
As soon as the yellow-haired man was about to speak, he was held down by the calm young man. "Sorry, we are all engaged in racing cars. I was so excited when I saw such a good car that I couldn't help opening it and took a look. I'm really sorry that I didn't ask for your permission in advance." After the guy finished speaking, he bowed at 90 degrees and stood next to him. Huang Mao was also pressed on his head and made a big bow together.
This person was probably the boss. He took the lead and the others bowed along with him. It’s not easy for me to have an attack when others are like this. Besides, I don’t want to cause trouble, and I still have business to do.
"Forget it, it didn't cause any damage anyway. Please help me put the protective cover back on. I have something to go."
The other party immediately asked Huang Mao to install the wheel covers, while I opened the car door and started stuffing Xiao Chun's pile of snacks inside. The purchase volume this time was really quite large.
As I was loading my things, I heard a sudden scream from behind. After the wheel rim installer Huang Mao finished installing the wheel rim, he turned around and saw the steel stamped label on the side of the car door. This thing records the basic information of the vehicle. It can only be seen when the door is opened, but not normally.
He was sitting on the ground at this time, pointing to the steel seal with one hand and tremblingly saying: "Nuclear... nuclear... nuclear power... this car uses nuclear batteries!" (To be continued ~^~)
