Another magnetic storm has come, this is the fourth one he has spent at Fierce Star. It has been nearly 130 cosmic days since he arrived here, which is almost as long as the winter of B-11.
Opal learned a lot that Rector didn't teach him, such as how to fight pain and mental pain, and how to overhaul and use weapons.
Plus the initial teamwork concept.
He returned to the mercenary school and started the third cycle of training. The indoor course on the magnetic storm day was as usual. Mu Shu had already left, and Opal himself was left in the dormitory.
When I came to the classroom, the teacher who taught this time actually knew each other.
The guy looked like he didn't wake up, his eyes were slack, he yawned, his hair was dark black, he was wearing a technician's coat, he took out his ears, and said lazily, "Hello, my name is Wrench."
Opal burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Wrench said, "Classmate, you are not serious."
The recruits laughed endlessly, and Opal said, "I wish you a long life, wrench!"
"Thank you." Wrench said, "It seems that you are having a good time."
"Next, I will be responsible for teaching you about spaceships, machines, and stargate technology." Wrench said: "It also includes the installation and operation principles of some improvised bombs."
"As a mercenary, mastering these is a must. I know that you have all learned some relevant physics knowledge in the Interstellar Union School, but in these thirty days, what I want to teach you is that you can't learn in school. toy."
"You don't necessarily have to learn how to repair a spaceship manually, but you have to know how much it costs to repair a spaceship, otherwise you will be miserable by the local repair shop when you make an emergency landing on some alien planet."
Everyone laughed again, and the wrench looked dull: "There was once a mercenary group, and it was a shame for the mercenaries to be deceived by the Glocks. Those blue-skinned Glocks only know money. If you don't know how Use the navigation system to conduct self-checks, and you can't figure out whether the reason why the spaceship can't start is whether it blew up the atomic furnace or burned the fuse. Just wait for them to swindle all the money. As long as the Glocks get a chance, they will Use all the second-hand or third-hand supplies they have on hand to help you refurbish the entire ship, and take off your new parts and sell them for money."
The wrench's words caused a lot of laughter, and someone said, "Teacher, are you also a mercenary?"
Wrench: "Of course, I'm here to teach you only part-time jobs. My job is the mercenary head of Twelve Nebula. I'm an A-level mercenary."
The class was silent. In the history class and politics class that we had taken before, everyone knew that the A-level mercenary was a very high rating at present. The highest mercenary rating is SS, and there is only one mercenary king Azeroth in the entire star.
Next are six S-rank mercenaries. Mercenaries of this rank no longer have to take on tasks every day to live. They are all recognized as strong in the universe. Four of them left the God of War Galaxy to explore the unknown universe. The two stay with Azeroth, and if the God of War galaxy falls into war, all six S-rank mercenaries will come back to help.
Next is the 112 A-level mercenaries of Quan Liexing. Most of these mercenaries are the head of the team, leading their respective mercenary groups, ranging from a few to a hundred, serving as the entire country of mercenaries. the pillars.
Opal never expected that the wrench rating is so high, there is a kind of shock that people can't look at.
"Can spaceship technicians also be evaluated?" Someone asked.
"Yeah." Wrench said casually: "I participated in the design of the king's sword. A good logistics is the soul of the entire mercenary group. Let's start today's lecture, or you want to hear something else. Gossip? I'm only in charge of the class, I'll leave when I say it, I don't mind how much you've learned."
No one interrupted immediately, the wrench opened the holographic projection, and said lazily: "Interstellar machinery is divided into three types, one: large space navigation devices, including space military fortresses and manned spaceships, warships, etc., that is, we collectively call them capable of carrying A human thing that can go on a long voyage."
The space fortress on the holographic projection slowly rotated, and the wrench said: "This is the super-large military fortress 'Saint' built by the Empire in 19793 in the era of light, equivalent to an asteroid, equipped with 14,000 light shock cannons, using The latest killing technology. There are only two in the entire Lion Galaxy nebula. Remember to run away when you encounter it. At present, the largest interstellar battleship produced by Lie Xing can only take half of the cannon. Blast you into powder."
"This is the most powerful interstellar cruise ship produced by the Republic at present, with a length of 11,437.3 kilometers. It is equipped with light shock cannons and gravity field cannons. It is said that the Republic is secretly researching new weapons... "The wrench took out a lighter-like gadget from his pocket, pushed open the lid with a snap, and an electric arc sent the dozing students flying straight out.
There was another burst of laughter, and the wrench said: "Listen carefully."
The sound of the wrench was like a lullaby, and Opal felt sleepy and screaming.
After introducing the military fortresses and battleship models, Wrench added: "The spaceships we use now can't even be called 'battleships', because real battleships are used for group army battles, and the spaceships imported and modified by the country of mercenaries are originally It's just a civilian airship, and it is improved with some weapons to suit our mercenaries. After all, it's impossible for everyone to shoot at other planets or unfamiliar spaceships when they are on a mission. on…”
"... As for how to choose a suitable spaceship? Second-hand spaceships range in price from 19 million to 33 million credit points. The projections above are the latest models of various countries, the cheapest ones. It's also more than 70 million, you can still have a little bit of obscenity in front of the image... "
Opal: "… "
Wrench: "The second category of interstellar machinery is unmanned machinery, which is divided into non-fighter aircraft and fighter aircraft, non-fighter aircraft divided into civilian and commercial use, fighter aircraft divided into police use, military use and private armed. How about distinguishing these cute gadgets during the mission? It’s very important, please listen carefully and keep your spirits up, I don’t want to turn on the power over mode for all staff…”
Everyone sat up straight, and the wrench continued: "If you don't listen carefully in the next class, then I'm pretty sure that when you perform the task, you will easily get the wrong object, and you can't tell which robot is a threat to you, or not. The threat is: lose a lot of money, or die."
"If you are facing a commercial robot, and you don't even look at it and give it a hammer, then it is broken. Some rich people's private robot servants lose a robotic arm, which is enough to make you lose money. vomiting blood…”
Opal: "… "
Wrench: "If you are facing a fighter jet and you try to communicate with it, it can send you back to the west with a single shot. Note that the most notable thing about non-fighter jets and fighter jets is energy fluctuations."
"A combat machine, no matter how it is disguised as a harmless little cutie, will gather energy before starting to attack, and at the same time need a very strong backup energy drive to cope with emergencies. Non-fighter energy is completely smooth of."
"When you encounter an unknown machine, you must keep your distance immediately and observe its battery and energy gathering method. You can't wait until it shoots at you to be sure. If you insist on this, when I don't say anything."
"This kind of detector is produced by Lie Xing." The wrench picked up a small box and said, "It can detect the energy fluctuation of the other party and issue an alarm in time. Qualified mercenaries can detect the dangers around at any time, but your recruits Obviously not, it is recommended that each person buy one and go back, each only needs 2,400 Star Coins, and I only get 400... rebates."
Everyone: "… "
"This part will be explained in detail in the next lecture. Now let's talk about the third category, which is manned fighter jets, commonly known as 'mechas'. I think you are very interested in this."
Sure enough, Opal immediately raised his spirits.
"The cost of a high-level mecha is more than 550 million, and it can travel anywhere in the universe. The most cutting-edge technology of the Republic can even install a jumper for the mecha 'God Against Time'. Of course, it is impossible. Jumps can be made anytime, anywhere, and must be recharged between jumps."
Opal remembered Rector's mecha, and he jumped several times from the Red Flame Galaxy to the Lion Galaxy, and then to the Milky Way, without blinking an eye. The God of Anti-Time is simply dead.
"The cost of this machine is." After Wrench introduced all the functions of God Against Time, he paused and said, "400 billion."
The students are expressionless. This number has exceeded the cognitive limit of everyone. What is the concept of 400 billion? No one can tell, only know that it is a four-character followed by many zeros. As for how many there are, no one cares too much.
Quiet for a long time.
Opal nodded approvingly: "Sounds expensive."
Wrench: "… "
The wrench was defeated by them, switched projections, and said, "This is the emperor's car 'The Lion'."
A golden giant armor appeared on the projection. The alloy shell and wild curves, lion-like eyes, and a whip-like alloy tail, just looking at the image, the momentum overwhelmed everyone.
"This is the king's mecha." The wrench switched the image and introduced: "The Republic's product, the name is 'God of War'."
"Can the mecha jump?" Opal asked.
"No, you can't." Wrench said: "Most of them can't. Future technology may be able to support them to make a leap. Maybe you can see it in your lifetime, provided you live long enough... Let's see the king's mecha."
A golden metal robot with two cloud-like wing-shaped propellers behind it, holding a blue giant sword station.
"Next is the mecha of Admiral Li Wei of the Republic, the song of time." Wrench said while turning the page quickly: "The speed is very fast. There is also the mecha 'Sea Blue Enchantress' of Admiral Shui Lanxing 'Rou'. Sirius Double Star, King Sagas' mecha 'Fenghua', Imperial Marshal Rotman's mecha 'Xinghe', all of the above are God of War-level mechas. You can feel free to manipulate them."
Opal thought it was enough, couldn't he think of anything other than lusting after other people's mechas
"Next is the next-level mechanic." Wrench said.
Wrench introduced hundreds of different types of mechas, and they were basically for the students to play with. It seems that Wrench is a mecha enthusiast, and he knows all kinds of models by heart.
"This 'Ben Lei' is a domestically assembled model." Wrench said blankly: "There are discounts, but 30 million credit points are required. Let's work hard, the introduction is over."
Opal has been waiting for the wrench to introduce the ancient mecha soldier that Recht said, but it was unexpectedly over, and he couldn't help raising his hand.
"Please say." Wrench said: "What's the problem."
Opal said, "Where's the Taikoo Machine Soldier?"
The wrench asked inexplicably: "What is that?"
Opal said, "Like a dragon ray... or something."
Wrench said: "I haven't heard of it, the new model?"
Opal: "… "
Wrench: "… "
Opal stopped wrestling with this issue, waved his hand, and continued his lesson with the wrench, beginning to explain the basic structure of a spacecraft. The basic principles of spaceships are similar, divided into power units, control terminals, living areas and combat parts.
With so much information stuffed down, Opal's brain was about to explode. I tried to remember some, but the students all fell asleep.
When the get out of class was over, Wrench only spoke at the beginning, and Opal asked him for a lesson plan and transferred it to the memory chip of E7, intending to go back to review and preview.
Wrench looked at E7 and said, "Who made this little robot?"
Beep, beep... E7 video lights flashed and clicked, and took a picture of the wrench.
"My mother made it, she used to be a technician," Opal said.
The wrench murmured, "The workmanship is very delicate, do you mind if I take it apart and take a look?"
Opal: "You promise to put it back together."
Wrench: "Oh, no, that's not guaranteed."
Opal said: "I'm very interested!"
Wrench reluctantly said: "Science and technology need to be tried."
Opal said: "No, this is the only thing my mother left me."
Wrench had no choice but to nod, thought for a while, and said, "I'm currently researching a multi-dimensional computing technology about artificial intelligence and the hexadecahedron. Can you try it?"
Opal said: "How... how to try?"
Wrench said: "I want to use it to collect all kinds of spaceship structure diagrams, here is a new unused program... I promise not to destroy any structure of it, just input it into its chip, maybe in the future You can use it too."
Opal always felt a little mysterious, and when he was about to reject him, the wrench said again: "With this core program, it can crack the security passwords of many spaceships in a short period of time. Imagine if you are locked on the enemy's spaceship, you A small robot can intrude into the security system of the other party through any data line, query the structure diagram of the entire spacecraft, and then crack it."
Opal said: "Can you control the other party's spaceship?"
Wrench said regretfully: "No, weapons, security and navigation are three independent systems, so I am researching this and need experimental data."
Opal said: "You promise not to damage it."
The wrench said: "Of course not, just connect a data cable..."
Opal opened the case on the E7's chest, took out his portable suitcase with a wrench, and connected a data cable to the E7's body.
The E7 beeped, and the overhead projector emitted a 36-hexahedron, with dense computer symbols on each surface, and the wrench said: "I also wrote an artificial self-rescue intelligent program, after the test, I want to make Asia Xerath is promoted all over the stars. If you are in danger... let's say caught, this little bot will judge itself based on what's in the database and try to save you. Your little buddy is very good, and it has certain qualities of its own. Smart. Your mother was supposed to be an advanced mechanic."
Opal said: "You are also very smart."
Wrench said, "No, it was taught to me. Multidimensional computing too."
Opal: "Who?"
The wrench looked at the data on the hexadecahedron and said, "An unidentified researcher who is said to come from the centerline of six black holes..."
Opal frowned and said with a wrench: "In short, he knows a lot. Once he was on a mission and found that the man was trapped. The Twelve Nebula Mercenaries rescued him by the way, but he died not long after. Yes, he taught me something before he died. There are days outside the sky, there are people outside people, there are always things that you can't understand."
Opal nodded slowly.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, the hexadecahedron was closed, the data transmission was over, the wrench put away the terminal, and said, "Okay, if you have activated its self-rescue function in the future, remember to bring it back and record the data for me, after all It's still in testing, but you'd better not bring it up to people because it's a borderline ball... You know, the Interstellar Computer Society requires all scientists working on artificial intelligence to be registered. And I'm just a not-so-reliable... hacker. "
Opal said: "I don't quite understand, but I won't say it. As a thank you, let me invite you to lunch."
Wrench said: "Thank you, I was just trying to save some money, Lily is always crazy to buy things."
