Chapter 487 The Most Suitable
"Do you want to be a driver?"
Chu Xuan almost threw this unprepared question at Luo Gandao's face in a "smashing" manner, shocking the seventeen-year-old young man's mind to a blank.
Luo Gandao looked into Chu Xuan's eyes. There was no hint of deception in the other person's gaze from behind his spectacles, and the meaning couldn't be clearer. Everyone has to take action, which means that the senior members of the Central Continent Team have their own work to do... Their opportunity has really come!
"I……"
——Think about it for yourself. If one day, the seniors really let us who have just entered the main god space to drive mechas, it can only mean one thing. They dare not risk driving mechas to fight monsters by themselves. Instead, they want to use us as cannon fodder and reap the fruits of victory themselves.
Who doesn't love giant robots? Not to mention Luo Gandao's hard training, just to become a mecha hunter, and one day truly step into the cockpit to realize his dream. He subconsciously wanted to agree, but at this moment, Xie Luyin's almost forgotten words rang in his ears for some reason, making him hesitate.
——People always have to make more plans for themselves.
Even though Luo Gandao understood at this time that Xie Luyin's words before betraying the Samsara Team and taking refuge with the aliens were 100% to sow discord, was there really no truth to what she said?
——Why is it my turn? Is it true that none of the senior members of the Central Continent Team can take off their hands? Are they really so confident that they will leave the only power that can fight monsters in the hands of a newcomer like me?
"...There should be a more suitable candidate than me, right?"
Forcibly stopping the words that were about to come out of his mouth, Luo Gandao forced a smile that was even uglier than crying, even though he knew that his facial expression management was extremely poor, and Chu Xuan would see the flaw at a glance. But at this time, on the one hand, he did not dare to agree, and on the other hand, there were indeed many doubts in his heart: "Raleigh Beckett and Mori Mako, they are the most suitable ones to pilot giant mechas to attack." I can't even find a partner to try out my telekinesis."
"What's more, Colonel Chu Xuan just said that the six mechas are now unable to attack. You need to stay here to restore their combat capabilities as soon as possible..."
"You didn't understand what I just said."
Suddenly, Chu Xuan interrupted Luo Gandao, and he said calmly: "The question I ask you is 'Do you want to be a pilot?', not 'Do you want to be a mecha hunter?'. "
What's the meaning?
Chu Xuan's explanation made Luo Gandao even more confused. He didn't understand why the other party insisted on emphasizing this title. Whether it was a mecha hunter or a pilot, they all meant the same thing, unless...
"Come with me."
Seeing Luo Gandao's brain shutting down and obviously unable to keep up with the rhythm, Chu Xuan didn't say any more nonsense. He quickly moved his fingers on the microcomputer, and one of the walls of the laboratory separated to the left and right with a sound, revealing a black The dark passage comes.
After that, Chu Xuan walked straight into it alone, and Luo Gandao, who was still stunned, quickly followed him, the excitement and doubt of discovering a great secret intertwined in his heart: "Colonel Chu Xuan, we This is……"
"How to balance flexibility, destructiveness and maneuverability is a major problem in mecha design."
Chu Xuan went all the way down the stairs. His speed was so fast that Luo Gandao, who had to pay attention to his steps and listen carefully to what he said, could almost jog to keep up with Chu Xuan's pace.
Fortunately, as Chu Xuan's footsteps went all the way down, the lights on the surrounding walls also lit up one after another, adding to a mysterious atmosphere: "In order to fight against seventy or eighty meter monsters, humans in this world choose to The design is basically the same size as the monster. Every meter in height and weight of the mecha means that it trades speed for power, so that even the most advanced fifth-generation 'Eureka Raider' , before I brought the mental force induction frame system to this world, I could barely make running movements. As for fighting, dodging, and even using fighting skills like a real human being, I couldn’t even think about it.”
Luo Gandao subconsciously accepted Chu Xuan's explanation. In fact, he could also see that in the battle with the monster, although the Eureka Raider's flexibility was more than enhanced, he still had to fight like a real elite soldier. , use a set of military-style punches, or use fast, accurate and ruthless killing techniques, but they are still unable to do so.
Of course, no one expected an eighty-meter-tall mecha to be that flexible. After all, even humans over two meters tall would inevitably move a little slowly. But what Chu Xuan means is obviously...
"There are well-known objective laws about the relationship between size, weight and strength. Marginal benefits do exist. When the size of a mecha exceeds a certain threshold, continuing to study this aspect will only achieve half the result with half the effort. They adhere to the principle of 'big is good, heavy is good'. It is the principle of beauty that puts too many resources on the defense and attack power of the mecha, so that it does not take into account the due mobility. "
At this point, Chu Xuan made a sound that seemed to be a sneer, causing Luo Gandao, who was trying to understand these words, to shrink back: "This is determined by the background of this world. Since the blood of monsters is highly polluting, Therefore, mechas are deliberately made to be bulky and powerful. Most of the time, mecha hunters need to drive mechas to fight head-on with monsters. There are even mechas in the PPDC database that beat monsters to death with their fists. Record."
"Perhaps in the early stages of the battle, this design was reasonable, but it has always only considered size and destructive power, while ignoring flexibility, and it has fallen into path dependence. Just like the battleships that pursued big ships and cannons in World War II , but with the development of technology, they were eliminated by aircraft carriers... Regarding this point, PPDC could only use helicopters to lift mechas to the battlefield, but the rocket backpack I developed helped them get rid of this dilemma. "
"As members of the Samsara Team who are not in this world, we don't need to be divided by stereotyped thinking, nor do we need to follow their concerns."
At this point, Chu Xuan suddenly stopped walking, causing Luo Gandao to almost bump into the back of the person in front of him: "For us, this is the most appropriate."
Suddenly, the light shines brightly.
The blue final battle weapon reveals its true appearance under the light.
