Chapter 173 Mechanical Exoskeleton

As far as frontal firepower and armor are concerned, a warrior in T-3 power armor is not fundamentally different from a mutant with steel plates hanging from his chest.

If it is a one-on-one situation, the power armor, with its high mobility and high battlefield adaptability, can indeed easily solve the mutant soldiers with almost undefended backs. However, if the battle is raised to the corps level, the advantages of power armor will be weakened a lot, and the battle will often develop in the direction of relying on bunkers to vent firepower to each other.

In the last firefight with mutants, Jiang Chen had already learned his lesson.

Ten t-3s did not have any advantage in firepower in the firefight with dozens of mutants, and it could even be said that they were completely under pressure. In the end, he relied on the superiority of the condescending terrain and paid for several spare fuel rods and a power armor to barely win.

If there were more artillery on Jiang Chen's side at that time, the situation might be different.

At the same time, whether it has the ability to produce heavy fire weapons by itself is the foundation of whether a survivor base can exist independently.

In every sense, fish bones must develop heavy firepower!

And he has set about doing so.

The Type 50 electromagnetic gun technology that I bought from Zhao Chenwu last time has been thoroughly digested by the technicians at the Fishbone Base. Although the production conditions of the base are still rudimentary, after more than half a month of hard work, the workers of the fishbone base have produced six Type 50 electromagnetic guns with the help of rudimentary production equipment.

This vehicle-mounted electromagnetic gun is usually used as the main gun of a tank in wartime, but it is obviously impossible to get a tank now. So Jiang Chen thought of a compromise.

The Type 50 electromagnetic gun was welded to the modified truck bed, and the armor of the truck was strengthened to a certain extent by welding steel plates. At the same time, a gunner was placed in the rear to fire manually.

As a result, this nondescript electromagnetic gun chariot was born under Jiang Chen's brain hole.

Moreover, he also gave this thing a second-time out-of-the-box name—Tiger Hunting.

Low Armor, Medium Mobility, High Range. High damage. Works wonders in suburban areas with fewer buildings, and is a target in cities. Although this design is a bit extreme, it can only be played like this for now.

On the other hand, with the commissioning of the Hummingbird UAV production line, the patrols around the base have been completely handed over to these little guys the size of their palms. At present, the reserve of Hummingbird drones in the base has reached more than 100, and it is more than enough to form a drone attack formation. These little guys don't carry a lot of bombs though. But once the number is formed, it is impossible to launch a clustered attack.

......

The plan for the expedition to Shenxiang Town was set for five days, and the survivors in the base were also busy again.

Although the winter expedition may seem a little unplanned, as long as it is the boss's decision, they will implement it without hesitation.

The munitions factory was working overtime. The workers welded the Type 50 electromagnetic gun to the modified truck according to Jiang Chen's instructions. The training ground became lively as a result. The soldiers in white winter suits, led by Cheng Weiguo, were intensively training before the war.

Although everyone was preparing very seriously, Jiang Chen didn't have too many worries about this expedition.

Just a mere 40 mutants. On the fishbone side, there are not only hunting tigers to provide fire support, but also helicopters that act as air gunboats.

It can be said that there is no suspense in this war.

Wearing a thick winter clothing, Jiang Chen walked straight to Jiang Lin's laboratory after he came out of the villa.

For the scientist who is passionate about aerospace. He was still very interested. Not only did he get a laboratory for him, but he also gave him a monthly budget of 1,000 crystallites to purchase related equipment.

Although at this stage aerospace technology is useless to the fishbone base. But the rocket is not only used to shoot into the sky. Shoot at the ground, that's a missile!

Of course, this time he came not for missiles, but for something else.

Opening the door of the laboratory, Jiang Chen quickly stepped into the door, and then quickly closed the door behind him.

Standing at the door shaking the snow on his body. He then walked into the house.

"Cough, what are you playing with?"

A dazzling array of mechanical parts are randomly stacked in the corner of the room. Some of them are related equipment needed for the rocket launch, and some are miscellaneous from the prosthetic leg boutique. Although Jiang Lin did not intend to inherit his father's business. But these things were still moved here by him.

"The rocket's engine..." At this moment, Jiang Lin was wearing sunglasses, holding an electric welder in his hand, and was engrossed in fiddling with the parts on the table.

Looking at the hair that was stuck into clumps of oil stains, Jiang Chen didn't want to guess how long he hadn't washed his hair.

It's good to be passionate about your career, but...

"Is the task I gave you completed?" Jiang Chen walked over to him and asked after stepping over a lying mechanical leg.

"It's done, it's on the shelf on your right, and the manual is on the second shelf on the next bookcase." Jiang Lin said without turning his head after carefully welding a small chip to the engine.

"I said, you can't launch a rocket in this weather, why don't you do something else?" Jiang Chen took off the weird mechanical shelf from the shelf, and said casually.

"Just wait until the sky is clear... Set up an intelligent power control module in the engine, and then install a radio obstacle feedback system on the rocket head. Gee, I'm a genius." Jiang Lin said to himself The expression on his face was very excited.

Although Jiang Chen didn't understand what he was excited about.

"Mechanical exoskeleton, model: k1." Jiang Chen whispered a small inscription on the side of the metal bar.

Returning his gaze back to the mechanical shelf in his hand, he groped for a long time but couldn't come up with a clue, so he went to the bookcase and took out the manual, and followed the steps above to wear it.

Lightweight plastic-steel metal fits the sides of the limbs, and the spine is covered by layers of overlapping metal strips.

Simply put, this thing is like a metal skeleton. Although the metal texture is full, there is no cumbersome feeling to wear on the body.

Lower limbs moved. Moving his fingers, Jiang Chen didn't feel that this thing was of any use, and he couldn't help showing a confused expression on his face.

Seeing that the boss had already put on his masterpiece, Jiang Lin put down his work, clapped his hands and walked over.

"The start button is on the neck. You can try it."

Following Jiang Lin's instructions, Jiang Chen stretched his fingers suspiciously to the side of his neck, quickly found a button, and then tentatively pressed it.

A faint electric sound slid across, Jiang Chen felt a slight tingling in the back of his neck, and a shocked expression appeared on his face the next moment.

This feeling is amazing. It's as if these metal bars are part of their own body. What drives one's body to move is no longer the bones in the flesh, but the metal bones attached to the outside of the body!

Jiang Chen moved his arms, and the shock on his face became more and more intense.

It's hard to describe the feeling, specifically, it's like the metal skeleton is your hand. And that real hand is nothing but a prop that he "pinches".

"K1-type mechanical exoskeleton, the proud work of the prosthetic leg boutique." Jiang Lin showed a proud smile, took a curved plastic plate from the side, and pressed it against the empty space in front of Jiang Chen's chest. on the slot.

"Removable armor, ultra-molecular-weight polyethylene bulletproof partition, there is no problem in defending against ordinary rifle bullets. The exterior is coated with a scattering coating, which also has a certain degree of defense against laser bullets. Of course, I personally do not recommend you to Going to get a few shots on purpose to test armor strength."

talking. Jiang Lin took several arc-shaped plastic plates one after another, and put them together on Jiang Chen's chest, abdomen, front of thighs, and shoulder blades.

"Almost dressed." Standing up, Jiang Lin clapped his hands and took the tablet from the table next to him with a smile. Connect a data cable to the disc behind Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen slumped his limbs and watched with interest as his fingers quickly tapped on the screen. Soon, the numb electric shock from the back of the neck disappeared, replaced by the shock of nerves passing through the metal.

This time, it's not just the metal that drives the body, but the metal and the body are controlled by his brain at the same time.

As he moved his limbs, the look of surprise on Jiang Chen's face became more and more intense.

Look at the look on the boss's face. Jiang Lin laughed and quickly stepped aside and made a "please" gesture. Proudly said: "Come and try to punch the sandbag."

Hearing this, Jiang Chen clenched his fist with the flaky finger guard. With all the strength of his body, he slammed it out.

boom--.

Dust is flying.

The violent impact dented the sandbag, and the hanging iron chain let out an overwhelmed scream.

"Beautiful play! Let me see... 971 kilograms, not bad." Jiang Lin touched his chin and nodded, and professionally adjusted the data on the tablet.

not bad? It's blown up, okay?

Jiang Chen stared at his hand in shock and complained in his heart.

Close to a ton of punch! A normal person's boxing strength is only about 100 kilograms. He remembers that the boxing champion Tyson in the world is only about 400 kilograms.

However, this sandbag was not pierced by a single punch, and the quality is also good.

In addition to being surprised at the power, Jiang Chen couldn't help but glance at the sandbag.

"Try the strength index again." Jiang Lin quickly walked to the other side of the room.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen tentatively moved his lower legs. After finding that there was no obstacle to coordination, he followed suit.

Wardrobe-sized iron box, the protruding part seems to be a weight-lifter-like thing. The white metal casing flickered with a signal light of unknown meaning, and the meter beside it exuded a faint fluorescent light.

"Put your hand on the handle, and lift it up with the greatest strength." Jiang Lin handed a weight-lifting lever to his hand, and then smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

Jiang Chen followed his instructions, put his hand on the barbell, and then raised it violently.

[Strength Index: 64]

"It's perfect!" With a snap of his fingers, Jiang Lin said excitedly.

Compared to Jiang Lin's excitement, Jiang Chen's mood can be described as ecstasy.

With just a few metal shelves, one can gain power beyond the limits of genetic medicine transformation. If every soldier wears one piece, the combat effectiveness of the Fishbone Base will more than double!
