Chapter 344 Passive Power Armor Sample [Subscribe]
Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping have not had a peaceful time recently.
Since they witnessed Chen Xuan's power like a ghost three weeks ago, they both chose to surrender.
The contract rooted in their souls reminds them all the time that all this is not false.
Whenever they have a little rebellious thought in their hearts, they will feel unbearable pain in their souls.
This is the power of the soul contract.
And whenever they think back to the horror of that night, they will involuntarily associate everything with the mysterious side.
This is indeed the case.
For the Blue Star people, the power of Naroa is an absolute mysterious power.
At that time, they did not hesitate too much, and there was no room for choice at all.
The terms of the relevant slave contract are very harsh, but the two can only choose to sign it.
Because signing a contract is worse than being killed directly by Chen Xuan.
As the saying goes, it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.
This is indeed a wise choice, and the facts have proved this.
Chen Xuan did not actually restrict Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping too much.
As long as they do things honestly, they won't suffer any hardship, and their lives will be as peaceful as before.
As for the idea of disobedience that may pop up in their minds from time to time, that is human nature.
But it doesn't matter, people always remember the food but not the beating.
As long as they have a little bit of disobedient thoughts, the tingling feeling in their minds will teach them how to behave.
After suffering a few times, the inappropriate thoughts will naturally disappear.
This is a subconscious change and training.
Just like the monkey's electric shock experiment, as long as the monkey understands that a certain behavior will be shocked.
It will subconsciously resist doing behaviors that will be shocked.
Similar situations also apply to Zhang and Li.
They have already felt the price of disobeying Chen Xuan.
After this period of contract training, they have become honest.
In fact, from the perspective of the Blue Star people's thinking.
The fact that Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping have the opportunity to become slaves just shows that they are still useful to Chen Xuan.
As long as this can be ensured, they can at least survive.
If they perform well, they may be able to live forever.
With this realization, everything became logical.
After the contract was signed, the two parties had an invisible connection.
This connection always existed, allowing them to sense Chen Xuan's aura.
This aura was very vague. Simply put, it only let the two know that Chen Xuan was still alive.
Since the last contract meeting, Chen Xuan has not contacted them again.
However, the two still dared not slack off, and reported their progress on WeChat every day.
After the contract was signed, Chen Xuan finalized most of the details with them.
Regarding the design of the passive power armor, Li Jianping will be responsible for coordinating the design department.
And Zhang Youpan will implement a just-right estimate and sign a supplementary contract with him.
After all, Hongyu Heavy Technology is not owned by the two of them, but a large enterprise with nearly 10,000 employees, and it is also an industry that Tianhai City pays more attention to.
The jobs provided by Hongyu Heavy Technology are extremely important.
In fact, the new contract and quotation were finalized as early as two weeks ago.
At that time, Chen Xuan asked Yang Renyong to help him follow up on this matter.
After the operation, the funds of Qianjiang Bicycle Factory became extremely abundant.
The design fee of the new contract alone was as high as seven figures.
The manufacturing cost of a single sample was comparable to that of a high-end car.
The total contract price finally reached more than 7 million.
Including eight samples of passive power armor, Chen Xuan did not plan to entrust Hongyu Heavy Industry to produce them in the future.
Instead, he planned to take the samples and drawings to Naroya, and hand them over to the Blacksmith Association and the Alchemy Workshop for magic modification and reproduction, and conduct practical tests by the way to see if there are any inappropriate designs.
And make improvements based on this.
The industrial design level of Blue Star is still very high.
Various information technologies and modeling programs can be assisted.
Chen Xuan estimated that there should be no bugs, at most it is not compatible with the situation in the other world.
These can be fine-tuned later.
There is no need to worry too much.
After Yang Renyong docked and paid, Hongyu Heavy Industry entered the formal design stage.
A lot of experts were specially selected from the mechanical design department to set up a special design project department to complete this design case.
Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping would go to the design department almost every day.
Follow up on this matter.
They completely treated the passive power armor as their own business.
This will undoubtedly avoid many possible troubles.
After all, state-owned enterprises often have strength but no attitude, and they will easily give up or bully customers.
With the full involvement of Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping, two industry insiders.
Many unnecessary cumbersome procedures were avoided.
Chen Xuan was very satisfied with the performance of the two, and he would always check the messages sent by the two regularly.
After leaving the company, Chen Xuan drove to Hongyu Heavy Technology.
He held the steering wheel with both hands and stared straight ahead.
He seemed to be concentrating on driving, but in fact he used his mental power to materialize and picked up the phone.
Mental power is equivalent to his third eye.
The mental power dialed Zhang Youpan's voice, and the other side was quickly connected.
Zhang Youpan didn't speak at first, and the voice from the other end of the phone was noisy at first.
Accompanied by the sound of walking, it soon became quiet.
"Master... Master..."
Even though he was mentally prepared, Zhang Youpan still stuttered when he spoke.
"Yes, it's me."
"I saw in your message that the first sample has been completed?"
The design has actually been completed long ago.
It took more than two weeks to make the first sample.
This kind of thing has no mold and is a trial version. Many parts involve manual fine-tuning.
So it took a lot of time to make it.
However, with the first sample and Chen Xuan's acceptance.
The remaining five samples are relatively simple to make.
Chen Xuan has seen the detailed pictures sent by Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping on WeChat.
From the appearance, it really feels a bit like a humanoid power armor.
It is a power armor that can be worn and has the ability to move.
The outside is covered with titanium alloy plates and homogeneous steel plates.
It can withstand the bombardment of 20mm machine guns.
The frontal defense effect even exceeds that of ordinary armored vehicles.
This made Chen Xuan marvel.
No wonder the cost of a single passive power armor reached hundreds of thousands.
Now it seems that if the data is not false, it is indeed worth the price!
Chen Xuan deeply agrees with this.
Hearing his words, Zhang Youpan replied hurriedly.
"Yes, master."
"Are you coming to inspect now?"
After a brief conversation, Zhang Youpan calmed down a lot.
No longer as timid as before.
Chen Xuan did not intend to hide his meaning, so he said bluntly.
"Yes, it's about a 20-minute drive."
"Lao Li and I will wait for you at the entrance of the company."
Zhang Youpan said attentively.
Chen Xuan did not refuse.
"Okay."
"That's it."
After saying that, he hung up WeChat.
The passive power armor plan aims to improve the per capita resistance of Magtan mobilized soldiers.
Save the rapid consumption of their own magic in order to protect the body during the attack.
In this case, it is a good choice to have an extra layer of armor that is strong enough.
Especially the passive exoskeleton after the magic modification, and then attached with a magic shield.
The defensive effect is still very good.
In the short term, Chen Xuan only plans to equip the elite with the magic modified version of passive power armor.
Because this thing is still quite expensive.
Not only on Blue Star, the cost of the future Naroa magic modified replica is not much cheaper.
This is still the case when there are new mines in the Misty Canyon to supply raw materials.
So it can only be equipped on a small scale at the beginning.
Chen Xuan plans to form an extraordinary power armor team with the same number as the previous ones.
The selection of this team will be slightly stricter, and at least the silver-level magic element cultivation must start.
The passive power armor worn must at least be modified with second-level rune engraving and magic protection.
The specific matters will be discussed after obtaining the drawings and samples.
Professional matters must be handed over to professionals.
Chen Xuan is not going to give orders blindly.
After thinking for a while, he put these questions behind him.
He casually looked at the city street scenes on both sides of the road.
...
More than ten minutes later, he arrived at the factory gate of Hongyu Heavy Industry.
Because it was not the morning rush hour, the traffic was much smoother.
The overall time was much shorter than he expected.
However, when his car drove to the door, Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping were already waiting there.
There was also a middle-aged man wearing glasses and Hongyu Heavy Industry work clothes beside them.
It looks like a small leader.
And it is likely that he is the person in charge of the passive power armor design project department.
Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping would never let irrelevant people appear here.
Chen Xuan stopped the car at the door first.
He walked over calmly.
Zhang Youpan and Li Jianping looked a little nervous, but soon recovered.
Among them, Zhang Youpan got into the role very well.
He took the initiative to introduce Chen Xuan.
"Mr. Chen!"
"You are here."
"This is Mr. Sun, the head of the passive power armor project design department."
"He graduated from Beijing Institute of Technology and has 16 years of work experience in mechanical design."
Zhang Youpan said with a smile, and took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Chen Xuan.
Acting, of course, requires professionalism.
Chen Xuan smiled, shook hands with Zhang Youpan first, then with Mr. Sun, and finally with Li Jianping.
"Hello, Mr. Sun."
"Can I see the sample now?"
Chen Xuan didn't have any polite thoughts and asked straight to the point.
Mr. Sun adjusted his glasses and nodded with a smile.
"Of course."
"Actually, I am very interested in this design mark."
"This suit of armor reminds me of the machine gunner in StarCraft."
"Haha, to be honest, I am a StarCraft fan."
"If it weren't for the house, car and money, I would have wanted to be a blogger of mechanical handicrafts."
Mr. Sun is neither old nor young.
We were also among the first group of young people to be exposed to the Internet.
So there was not much of a barrier when we talked.
Chen Xuan also smiled back. He played StarCraft 2 in high school, but he played less in his senior year due to his heavy workload. In college, he played League of Legends and Blade II.
It’s not that there are no real-time strategy games, but there are fewer than in high school.
“The reason why I commissioned your company to design and manufacture this strange power armor.”
“In fact, in some ways, it is also to fulfill my previous dream.”
“Steel is always a man’s romance.”
“Whether it is the machine gunner in StarCraft or the Astark monk in Warhammer 40K, or the nuclear fusion core power armor that appears in the Fallout series, they are all based on the extension of this iron man image.”
Chen Xuan rarely said a few more words, which resonated with Sun Gong again.
If it was Sun Gong who contacted him to design it, I’m afraid it would be well implemented without a contract.
But now is not the time to chat.
The telescopic door of the factory opened, and Chen Xuan drove the car into the factory and found an empty space in the employee parking area.
Then he followed the three people to the factory where the passive power sample was placed.
That thing was very heavy, so it was placed in the outer factory, covered with a black waterproof cloth.
Opening the side shutter door, Engineer Sun took the lead and walked in.
Chen Xuan saw the sample of the passive power armor.
Under his instruction, Engineer Sun unveiled the black waterproof cloth.
The passive power armor inside also revealed its true face.
The height of the entire passive power armor is about 2.8 meters.
The appearance is like the T-60 power armor, and the armor on the chest is particularly thick.
No wonder it can withstand the bombardment of 20mm machine guns.
Coupled with strong alloy armor such as titanium alloy plates, the resistance is further improved.
The arms and feet are relatively light and flexible, and you can see the spherical shaft covered under the nested armor plate.
It can provide a range of motion of up to 270° for the joints.
In comparison, the armor on the back is also relatively weak.
It can withstand the shooting of 14.7mm large-caliber high-machine gun ammunition.
The limbs can also withstand the continuous shooting of 12.7mm bullets.
The cabin to enter the passive power armor is on the back.
Engineer Sun introduced that this power armor is compatible with people with a height of 1.6 to 1.9 meters.
After opening the hatch on the back, Chen Xuan saw the control part of the limbs.
It was a lining made of a mesh skeleton.
Those skeletons are linked to mechanical limbs, and the operator can control the exoskeleton by embedding the limbs into the skeleton.
The premise is that the strength can meet the standard.
The foot skeleton also has two independent support points, so that it can move forward and maintain the overall balance of the passive power armor.
The head helmet also retains space for installing intelligent sights.
It can be used for later modification.
It can be seen that Engineer Sun did consider practicality.
It’s just that the concept used is different from Naroya’s combat method after all.
But it’s harmless.
The helmet can withstand the bombardment of 12.7 mm caliber hard core armor-piercing bullets. Except for the eyes, there are only two pieces of polished bulletproof glass installed without sighting equipment.
In fact, when the bulletproof glass reaches a certain thickness.
The defense power can even exceed that of ordinary homogeneous steel.
This is especially true for bulletproof glass that has been laminated with multiple layers.
