Chapter 125 Giant Mecha "Gundam"
Yan Xia got off the spaceship and stood on the surface of a lake. This is the landing pad. After all, the space here is limited, and it is impossible to open a special place to park the spaceship.
This lake is not shallow, at least 20 to 30 meters deep, and the water is very clear, with a visibility of 5 to 6 meters.
Standing on the water, Yan Xia felt that he was lifted up by a repulsive force, but it was also very magical. The ripples on the water surface would make his body rise and fall.
"There is a layer of gas on the surface of the water. This layer of gas rises through the electrolysis of water. The electromagnetic field compresses this layer of gas to a very thin state, forming a thin film. Yan Xia, you are now standing on that thin film."
This kind of technology is considered to be entertaining, and there is not much room for it to be used on the battlefield.
"There should be a lot of such technologies in the Federation. Increase some encouragement. We will issue certain honors and let those big companies help with publicity and business."
"Sometimes some small things are useless now, but it doesn't mean they will be useless in the future."
"The development of science and technology is progressive. No one knows what kind of technological innovation a small technology can eventually bring."
Yan Xia made important instructions, and Ella obeyed.
"Yes!"
"But should many useless inventions also be encouraged?"
Wouldn't that be too many? Everyone would come to get a piece of the pie.
"Let's set up a special evaluation agency."
"You can classify ideas into levels, such as ABCDEFG."
"Each level of ideas will receive different support. Even the most rubbish ideas will receive some encouragement, and these ideas will be recorded in the archives."
"These archives must be fully open and cannot be unavailable. Any information within the Federation, except for top technology and the military, must be open and transparent."
The citizens' licensing rights have been improved, so that they can be closer to the upper class and spend more energy on innovation instead of entertainment to death.
Yan Xia walked around the city on the surface of the Kunlun, which is indeed a good place to relax and relieve stress.
After that, he took an elevator to the interior of the Kunlun.
This place is narrower than he imagined. The height of the corridor is only 6 meters, which is the head height of the War Beast Clan, which can be said to be the lower limit.
Yan Xia also saw the War Beast Clan and the Light Wing Clan among the soldiers. The two standing together are more like demons and angels.
"The War Beasts are naturally strong in their athletic genes. Later, I further optimized their genes, making their data close to the limit."
Ella introduced Yan Xia to the changes in the Civilization Federation over the years.
In fact, they have talked about a lot, big and small, and everything in detail.
They walked into a cabin, where Yan Xia saw the big guy he had dreamed of when he was very young.
Gundam!
"Before the War Beasts joined, I didn't consider promoting this kind of thing in the Federation."
"Whether it is humans or other races such as the Hundred Eyes, it is impossible to control this kind of thing unless it is transformed."
"The War Beasts have talents in this area. Their two heads can achieve division of labor and unified dispatch at the same time, which makes giant mechas possible."
Giant mechas themselves are not practical, and their position in space wars is very awkward.
This kind of thing is not as flexible, aggressive, fast, and weapons as spaceships, but it is just a little cooler.
"The tactical requirements for ground combat are relatively high. Can the IQ of the War Beasts support it?" Yan Xia asked.
He had discussed the giant mecha with Ella, and concluded that the only function of this thing was to land on the enemy's planet or warship, and to exert its combat power when the enemy could not use large-scale weapons.
"The War Beasts are not muscular and simple-minded fools."
"Most of the tactical staff in the Federation are War Beasts."
Ella severely criticized Yan Xia's stereotype.
However, in fact, these giant mechas are better controlled by computers. The robot technology of the Civilization Federation is already very advanced. There are countless robots like Ella who can think independently. Ella can maintain its status today because of its computing power and the 270,000 restrictions set on those robots.
The fundamental reason why the War Beasts are still used is actually cost considerations. Good robot hosts are too expensive.
This is somewhat true.
"There are a total of 15,000 giant mechas on the Kunlun, which are suitable for the interior of the Kunlun and for launching at the enemy."
"These mechas are all made of the latest liquid metal, and other internal structures are also mostly special liquid materials."
Mechas are also internal defense tools to prevent the enemy from entering the interior of their own spacecraft.
Yan Xia took a look at these giant mechas. Compared with animation, they are more ergonomic and not square. They use more streamlined structures. They are called Gundams, but in fact they are more like enlarged versions of Transformers.
Each of these giants is 284 meters high.
In addition to novelties such as "Gundam", Yan Xia has not seen any other new things. Basically, they are all upgraded on the basis of the past.
Useful technology can be passed down as a classic, but this also means that the black technology level of the Kunlun is not high. It is essentially a practical warship, not an innovative technology exhibition.
After staying on the Kunlun for 2 months, the Kunlun officially started to leave the SC-29.
As Ella said, the Kunlun accelerated to the fastest speed using 100% of its stored energy. Not only that, the acceleration was extremely slow, reaching only 10g, which can be described as a turtle's pace in a Level 2 civilization that has already mastered gravity to offset gravitational acceleration.
After a full 70.5 hours, the Kunlun accelerated to the fastest speed and flew into deep space.
The strong gravitational radius of sc-29 is only 0.129c, and it took only 1.5 years to completely leave the star system.
However, this place is still far away from the star field of the Civilization Federation.
Yan Xia's body has almost recovered. The repair of his genes has awakened his body to the nth growth. His height has jumped to 1.91m and his weight has reached 122 kilograms.
However, he is still a small man in the current Civilization Federation.
Not to mention other races, the average height of human soldiers on Kunlun Mountain is 2.06m, and the record of natural human height without genetic modification is 3.61m, and it is not gigantism or other pathological increase, but normal height.
After recovering, Yan Xia quickly entered a dormant state. During the dormant state, he planned to experience the youth version of the virtual universe on the Kunlun.
Setting out on a journey of thousands of years again, the gray giant warship swam like a fish in the starry sky, crossed the stars, and returned home.
This first stop is the border of the current Civilization Federation, the ice and snow star Chaka that is extremely unfamiliar to Yan Xia.
