"Vera, where is this taking us?" Qin Lun looked curiously at the beautiful girl beside him as the number of people in the team dwindled and the companions in the team were diverted by various beautiful guides.
After a full day of rest yesterday, the apostles have slowly eliminated the dissonance of the new body. Early this morning, the Guise beauties led by Dongyue woke up all the apostles and invited them to participate in soldier training.
The apostles, who wanted to familiarize themselves with the new fighting style as soon as possible, naturally had no objections, and followed their guides and left the living area. It's just that the guides led the apostles one by one to turn into a side road halfway, as if to separate them all alone.
"Sir, please don't worry too much!" Although Vera is not very old, she is very smart, and explained with a smile, "Soldiers are the most powerful force on the Faith, and each one has a separate maintenance compartment. Even It is an experiment and test in a battleship, and strict supervision is also required to prevent soldiers from losing control."
"Out of control?" Qin Lun only frowned, and Vera's words made him feel uneasy. In his cognition, since the humanoid mecha is a man-made product, even if the operating system has some intelligence, it will not lose control, unless this artificial intelligence produces self-consciousness.
However, Qin Lun didn't pursue the meaning of Vera's words again, because at this time, the Ghisma girl had already led him into a separate branch road guide ladder, and landed toward the depths of the hull.
"Is this a soldier?" Although he had seen the appearance of this cosmic giant soldier on a reduced projection, Qin Lun still felt the visual shock when he saw this colossal creature with his own eyes.
The soldier in front of him was about 60 meters high and 10 meters wide, and its overall proportions were similar to that of a human body. Qin Lun, who was 2.8 meters tall, stood in front of it, probably only reaching his ankles.
Its appearance resembles that of a human being, except that it has ferocious features, a protruding lower jaw, and a cone-shaped forehead. If you look closely, the closed mouth with upper and lower jaws reveals the outline of teeth, like a silent beast.
There are silver-gray armor plates hanging all over the soldiers' bodies, but the exposed joints clearly have the texture of reddish-brown musculoskeletal bones.
"Vera, is the soldier a biological mecha?" Qin Lun stood on the corridor bridge of the cabin and couldn't help turning his head to ask.
"Let me answer this question for you, Master Apostle!" Before Vera could speak, a friendly voice came from behind them.
Qin Lun turned his head and saw a thin young soldier standing behind him, looking at the soldier in front of him with a smile on his face. There was undisguised pride in his eyes, which could even be called fanaticism .
"032 Soldiers cabin, ordnance officer..." The young soldier made the same mistake as Vera before, and uttered a long and pleasant voice, which made Qin Lun feel helpless and looked at Vera for help.
"Sir, you can call him... Sherlock!" Vera chuckled, took out the small card in her pocket, and translated it before saying. In fact, as far as the name is concerned, this kind of translation is just taking some of the syllables to form similar names of earthlings.
Sherlock looked a little thin among the men in Guise. He was about the same height as Vera, and he didn't have much muscle on his body. He wore a pair of optical glasses, and his face was immature, as if he was not very old.
"Sir, little Sherlock is a genius just like me. Don't look at his young age, he has three master certificates in mathematics, physics and mechanics." Vera whispered close to Qin Lun's ear, but she didn't look like that at all. It seemed to be a private conversation, but it was a bit teasing about the young ordnance officer in front of him.
"Hey, little Vera, no matter what I say, I'm still a year older than you, okay, you minor!" Hearing Vera call him Little Sherlock, the sixteen-year-old boy felt as if he had been stepped on Jumping up like a cat with its tail, it crossed its hips and glared at the beautiful young warrant officer.
"A 15-year-old pilot, a 16-year-old ordnance officer... such young people, no matter how talented they are, shouldn't be sent to the battlefield. It seems that the Githians are completely desperate this time." Qin Lun's eyes flashed , I thought to myself.
"That... Sherlock, please introduce this soldier mech to me in detail, please!" Qin Lun smiled and interposed between the two, separating the two boys and girls whose cheeks were bulging like fighting cocks.
"Oh, yes, sir!" Sherlock recovered, took off his military cap apologetically, and scratched his hair.
During Sherlock's explanation, Qin Lun learned that the soldier in front of him was indeed half biological and half mechanical. When soldiers were first born, they were actually pure metal mechas. It wasn't until the Jannamer invaded the Gith galaxy that soldiers produced mechas that were a mix of biological and mechanical.
The war with Jannamer mainly relies on the mobility of soldiers. The use of biological tissues in certain parts of the mecha can make the already highly mobile soldiers have better flexibility and improve the performance of the body.
"Sherlock, adding biological tissue to the mecha will reduce the mecha's defense capability?" Qin Lun asked curiously.
Sherlock didn't answer his question immediately, but glanced at Vera before saying, "Sir, have you seen those silver-gray metal pieces on the soldiers?"
"That's the APB force field board, which is used to defend against the enemy's long-range strikes!" Seeing Qin Lun nodding, Sherlock frowned and said, "When it comes to close range, the defensive performance of soldiers is no longer important... From the past From the point of view of combat, as long as soldiers are caught by Jannamer's body surface tissue, the survival rate is equal to zero. At this time, any defense is useless, and only high mobility can help the driver."
"Oh, is that so?" Qin Lun was slightly surprised. In the battle of soldiers, he couldn't even touch Jannamer. For the first time, he felt the risk involved.
"By the way, you just said the enemy's long-range strike? Does Jannamer still have the ability to strike long-rangely?" After pondering for a while, Qin Lun quickly realized another point in Sherlock's words.
"Actually..." Sherlock and Vera suddenly looked at each other with wry smiles, and Vera explained.
When Jannamer first invaded the Ghis civilization, these creatures wandering around in the universe did not have long-range attacks. But this creature has excellent mimicry ability. In the long war, the Gith humans had many space battleships and aircrafts, and even the early soldier mechs were captured by Jannamer.
These cosmic creatures slowly simulated similar things. At first, the space battleships and soldier mechas they transformed were just empty shapes without real performance.
However, with the passage of time, the people of Ghis discovered that Jannamer actually simulated the various electromagnetic guns and dead light cannons of the space battleship, and even the various additional weapons on the soldier mechs were cracked.
Since then, the hunting activities of the original civilized human beings on the primitive cosmic creatures have turned into a real cosmic war between warships and mechs. This is the reason why the powerful Gith civilization that owned the entire Gith galaxy was eventually driven out of its homeland. main reason.
"So that's how it is!" Qin Lun breathed a sigh of relief, rolled his eyes, and suddenly asked with a smile, "That should be the situation in the past. Now the Gith people and Jannamer have not encountered each other for thousands of years. You should treat them like this." Are the characteristics ready?"
"Yes, sir!" Sherlock and Vera smiled at each other, "Actually, the AB force field and the biological mecha are the main masterpieces of our scientists in the past thousand years."
"The AB force field is an anti-biological force field in the civilized language of the chief. In our scientific tests, it can effectively resist Jannamer's physical and mental pollution, and prevent soldiers from being captured by Jannamer. It will directly lose the ability to fight." Sherlock explained with a smile.
"However, the AB force field has not been used in actual combat, and the real effect is still unknown." Vera wrinkled her face and added worriedly, "Sir, if you receive an order to attack in the future, please be careful not to rely on it blindly." .”
"Hehe, I got it!" Qin Lun was amused by Vera's cute appearance, smiled and rubbed her head, which made the beautiful girl of Gies feel ashamed, and hid aside to tidy up her messy hair.
"Sherlock, since the AB force field is an anti-biological force field, what did you say just now that it can resist the enemy's long-range attack?" Qin Lun asked with some doubts, recalling the conversation just now.
"Hey, sir, you must have confused the APB force field and the AB force field." Sherlock snickered, "Actually, the APB force field has two kinds of force fields, one is the AB force field." , used to resist Jannamer pollution at close range, but the effect is still unknown.
The other is the AP force field, which is the Anti-particle force field, that is, the anti-particle force field, which is used to resist the electromagnetic and death light cannons of enemy biological warships. It's just that the AP force field and the AB force field cannot exist at the same time. On the battlefield, the driver must switch flexibly. Once the wrong force field is used in the enemy's attack... "
Sherlock shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and blinked innocently, "Sir, I don't need to talk about the fate!"
"Indeed..." Regarding life and death, Qin Lun's heart was basically calm, but his face still had a disguised worry. After thinking about it, he asked again, "What effect does the AB force field have on the biological organization of the soldier's mecha?" Nothing in the way?"
Hearing Qin Lun's question, Sherlock's eyes lit up, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face, "Sir, after you sit on the soldier in front of you, you will immediately understand this question yourself. The biggest difference between the descendant apostles and us Gith humans... "
"Really, let's start!" Qin Lun smiled slightly, "What should I do?"
"Sir, please wait a moment!" Sherlock covered the communicator in his right ear, put away his playful smile, and finally showed the serious look that an ordnance officer should have.
"Attention everyone in Cabin 032, start the first test code-named 'Seventeenth Fallen Angel', the mecha starts charging, pops up the cockpit of the soldiers at the outer end, lowers the driver's bridge, and the countdown to entering the cabin is 30 seconds..."
