Chapter 169 Hands-on Experience

Zhao Kexia then pointed to the mecha's dark silver metal frame.

"And then there's the material, which is 'Zheng Jin'."

"Its discovery is revolutionary in materials science; it's lightweight, rigid, and can absorb kinetic energy—truly the perfect material for mecha!"

"With the old materials, the leg joints would deform after just a few bounces. It was a real headache."

"Then comes the control system."

"In the past, the movement was very delayed, making him look like a stiff, mentally challenged 'zombie'."

"But the advent of room-temperature superconductors has also led to a breakthrough in the development of quantum computers, successfully reducing our computation and transmission speeds to within 10 milliseconds!"

"With the AI-assisted decision-making system developed in conjunction with the new framework, every movement of the mech will be incredibly smooth and precise, indistinguishable from a real person!"

Finally, there's the manufacturing process.

Zhao Kexia proudly placed her hands on her hips, her high ponytail swaying.

"This is the simplest point, because it's the first prototype, so there's no budget limit, and no expense is too high!"

"Build a prototype first, then talk about optimization and mass production."

Lin Mo walked around the mecha. The mecha was broad-shouldered and muscular, with a thick layer on its back, like a burly gym-goer.

According to the introduction, the reactor will be designed on the back, which will facilitate hand movement and also help dissipate heat.

He reached out and touched the metal on the mecha's lower leg.

Lin Mo's blood was surging.

Energy, materials, control, processes...

All the technical difficulties were overcome in such a short time thanks to the resources from Terra!

This is the speed of the Great Xia Dynasty!

"Can it move now?" Lin Mo's voice was a little hoarse.

Zhao Kexia smiled confidently.

"Of course, but you can only move around a little. Its energy still relies on cables. It will only be able to move independently after the miniaturized reactor is completed."

"Furthermore, the interior design of the cockpit also needs to be optimized to suit your preferences."

Lin Mo looked up and indeed, a cable hung from the ceiling, connecting the mecha.

The mech's surface armor wasn't fully covered yet, and many cables and other components were exposed, so I didn't notice it at first.

Zhao Kexia reached out her hand and made a "please" gesture.

"Want to go in and experience it?"

Without hesitation, Lin Mo immediately agreed: "I want to try!"

Zhao Kexia smiled knowingly, turned around, and waved her hand decisively.

"Come with me."

She led Lin Mo to a separate cubicle next door and pointed to a set of clothes hanging inside.

"Take off your clothes and put on that outfit."

Lin Mo looked at the all-black, strangely textured bodysuit and felt a little strange, but still did as instructed.

In the dressing room, he quickly changed his clothes.

This is a black racing suit similar to a top-tier racing suit, tightly wrapping and fitting the entire body.

The waist is a metal ring about ten centimeters wide, with an interface on the back.

The matching holographic helmet is very light, provides a wide field of vision, and is neither heavy nor uncomfortable.

Lin Mo pushed open the door and walked out. Zhao Kexia looked him up and down, a smile playing on her lips.

"Nice figure."

After she finished speaking, before Lin Mo could react, she had him board the elevator and slowly ascend.

The six-meter-tall semi-finished mecha was right in front of me, with holes already opened from the chest to the abdomen, revealing a huge cavity.

There is a thick robotic arm extending out from inside.

"Go in, stand on those two pedals, and lean against the robotic arm," Zhao Kexia instructed.

Lin Mo followed his instructions and stepped into the cockpit.

As soon as he stood firm, the robotic arm behind him snapped open with a "click," precisely locking onto the metal ring on his operating suit and securing it firmly.

Immediately afterwards, the two foot pedals under his feet rose slightly, lifting his entire body upwards.

Lin Mo found it very novel.

"This is the 'Dynamic Sensing Operation Suit'," Zhao Kexia's voice came from outside. "It can accurately capture your every subtle movement through the muscle movements of your whole body."

"The suspended omnidirectional robotic arm behind you allows you to perform any difficult maneuver in the cockpit, such as... rolling on the spot or doing a 360-degree somersault, all without any problem."

"As for the pedals under your feet, they will share some of the weight of the suspension system, giving you a feeling of walking on flat ground, and they will move with your legs."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo tried taking a few steps in place.

Sure enough, the pedals under his feet followed his steps perfectly, providing a supportive feel just like the ground with each step.

On a sudden impulse, he started jogging a few steps, then suddenly performed a tactical roll forward.

The omnidirectional robotic arm behind him responded instantly, carrying his body in a smooth arc in mid-air. The entire process was unimpeded and incredibly light.

Lin Mo landed steadily, his foot precisely catching the foot pedal, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"This is good stuff!"

He was seized by a playful impulse and began to maneuver and jump around in the cramped cockpit, thoroughly enjoying this unprecedented sense of freedom.

"Alright, if you've had enough fun, let's move on to the next step." Zhao Kexia held a tablet computer, looking at him with a hint of helplessness.

"Next, we will enter the actual synchronization phase. Remember, the power supply is from an external cable, and you can only move around in a small area in one place."

"Okay." Lin Mo immediately stood up straight.

The next second, the holographic helmet screen in front of him lit up.

[The "Pangu" spacecraft is starting up...]

[Neural synchronization-assisted connection in progress... Connection complete.]

[Fine-tuning of the dynamic sensing operation suit is complete.]

[System self-check complete... Completeness 47%...]

[Without a dedicated energy system, we are currently relying on external power, which restricts our movement.]

[Welcome, driver Lin Mo! I am the intelligent assistance system—Pangu!]

A few lines of dark blue characters flashed by and then faded away.

A completely new perspective unfolds.

Lin Mo looked down and saw not his own body, but the thick metal arms and heavy leg armor of the "Pangu" mecha.

The researchers and equipment around us suddenly seemed tiny, as if we had entered the land of giants.

His gaze swept over Zhao Kexia, who was not far away.

Instantly, an information box popped up automatically in the corner of the helmet screen.

[Name: Zhao Kexia]

Age: 22 years old.

[Identity: One of the chief engineers of the Super Mech Project, daughter of "Number Two". (Privacy: Top Secret)]

Height: 168cm.

[Weight: 50kg. 】

Measurements: 94, 62, 95.

Education level: ...

Lin Mo paused for a moment.

Has the Pangu Intelligent System's non-contact data collection capability already reached the point where it can perform accurate biometric scanning without being obstructed by clothing?

This real-time analysis technology is extremely useful in combat.

It can not only help drivers obtain more covert information, but also provide some combat suggestions.

Seemingly noticing Lin Mo's gaze fixed on the data, Pangu's voice rang out.

"Do you need my advice on how to win over Zhao Kexia?"

Lin Mo: ? ? ?

Is the "attacker" you're referring to the way I understand it?
