Chapter 306 Technology beyond this era(1/2)
The most intuitive thing to measure whether a territory is powerful is to see the technological level of the mechanical city in the territory.
The most intuitive way to compare the mechanic's strength is to take out a combat mecha to compare and score.
Fighting mechas are a culmination of mechanics' mechanical knowledge. Usually, "senior mechanics" have the ability to independently design combat mechas. However, it is difficult to create a mature mecha that has no shortcomings in all aspects... It requires the accumulation and practice of countless complex knowledge.
The battle force that the Oma Empire is proud of is the "Royal First Mechanical Legion".
In the past few hundred years, this army has had almost invincible combat power in war. As we all know, the most important thing that the Mechanical Knights Legion relies on is various mechanical equipment. "Fighting Mecha" is the top priority.
All the technical support of the Omadi team comes from the Royal Academy of Sciences of Oma. This "Steam Machinery Holy Land" has the world's top steam machinery technology and the most advanced combat mecha.
Of course, this was before the emergence of Heilong City.
.........
Carl took out his "Little Raccoon Fighting Mech" and put it on.
When the eight-cylinder power boiler started and white smoke burst out from the exhaust pipe, everyone in the venue was shocked.
One by one, his eyes stared at the miniature power boiler behind the mecha, and it became noisy in an instant.
"This...is an eight-cylinder power boiler?"
"Impossible! The six-cylinder boilers in our college are still in the experimental stage, this..."
“…”
Carl's design looks as good as ever, not in line with the public's aesthetics.
Compared with the mainstream "dark style" combat mecha on the market, this is obviously more like an iron toy.
But this time, more than a thousand people present, even if they were skeptical, no one dared to ridicule them.
If there was no exchange competition before, when you saw this boiler, everyone would probably think that it was just a four-cylinder boiler with a tracheal change. In fact, many black market mechanics like to do this, which would make the micro boiler look more valuable, but in fact there is no amplification effect on the kinetic energy system. It is just a modification of half-baked mechanics to attract attention.
But now, everyone feels that things are moving in a direction they cannot control.
In fact, some well-informed top mechanics have learned from some special channels that there are rumors of "six-cylinder boilers" selling in Heilongcheng world.
But it was rumored after all, and no one saw the real thing.
Moreover, they didn't believe that there would be more advanced technology in the world than their Oma.
But unexpectedly, I saw a real thing that is not a six-cylinder but an eight-cylinder boiler now?
If it is true... then, for their Royal Academy of Sciences, this is probably the biggest crisis in the millennium.
This top technology does not come from their Oma Academy, but from a small Black Dragon City?
"Guns" are just a branch in the field of machinery. No matter how amazing the musket is, it is within the scope of everyone's understanding.
But... the technological content of this eight-cylinder boiler is at least ten years ahead of six cylinders!
In other words, it has been more than ten years ahead of mechanics like Oma.
This is the most terrifying thing.
.........
Carl introduced his combat suit on the stage and said, "This is my 'Little Raccoon'. Although it was designed by me, many of them were invented and improved by my grandfather. For example, this eight-cylinder powered boiler and a rear-seat-free cannon system..."
He truthfully introduced his combat suit.
This statement did not cause any controversy.
Fighting mechas are no better than muskets. Mechanics can create thousands of muskets independently, but it is impossible to create a complete set of mechas by one person.
A complete set of mechas may require tens of thousands of parts and involve hundreds of patents. The technical difficulty is more than a thousand times more difficult than manufacturing a musket.
It is impossible that every part is made by a mechanic.
What a mechanic can do is to combine all the knowledge and resources he has mastered and give the mecha the strongest function.
There are too many professional terms and unfamiliar academic vocabulary in Carl's introduction.
Rennes, a mechanical amateur, has long been confused.
Not only him, but also the apprentices and even the mentors of Oma Academy were stunned.
There are so many "Little Raccoon" that they can roughly guess the purpose of looking at, but they have never had advanced technology that has appeared in textbooks.
What eight-cylinder boiler, energy circulation supply system, magic pattern noise reduction cooling, ancient alchemy enchantment...
Unfamiliar nouns, techniques that are not available at all...
On this mecha, there are many scientific research problems that even the various laboratories of their Oma Academy have been working hard to overcome.
Now... one of my own party is still researching, but the other party has already made the finished product?
Gradually, the shock in everyone's eyes turned into suspicion: Is this boy named "Carl" true?
If two academies have a few technically leading skills, it can be understood as the other party’s talent, which makes him a little outstanding in some aspects.
But if the technology in all aspects is too poor, it makes people feel a little unreal.
They refused to believe that there is still more than ten years in the world who can crush their Oma Academy in the field of combat mechas!
What's more, the "high-level technology" he mentioned, even the Mechanics Union, did not have any records of these patents at all. Could it be a verbal trick?
However, since it was a competition and exchange, their Oma side naturally also published their works on stage.
This represents the face of Oma Academy.
But the current communication is no longer something that students can do. Even the college tutors need to be cautious if they want to "win" this competition.
Finally, after Oma's side discussed, he asked a high-level apprentice to take the top individual mecha in the academy to the ring.
They knew very well that whether Carl said it was true or not, they had to take it with all their strength.
Otherwise, if this "communication" is lost again, their Royal Academy of Sciences will be completely ruined.
The mecha that the apprentice brought with him was the laboratory version of the Oma military mecha. Whether it is technology or materials, it must be far ahead of the world's top mechas.
The six-cylinder steam boiler, equipped with micro-shaped single-soldier cannons, materials, enchantments and other technologies, almost all represent the highest level of Oma's ability to fight in actual combat back then.
.........
"This is the 'Dark God of War'..."
The apprentice of Oma who came on stage also introduced the five-meter-high mecha beside him.
But there is obviously some lack of confidence.
After all, an apprentice cannot participate in any design of a mecha of this level.
The one who sent a mechanical apprentice was sent, but in fact Carl was facing the top technical crystallization of the entire academy.
This is the meaning and charm of "mechanical" lies in it.
The mechanics' combat power is almost entirely on mechas. They don't need to be like other extraordinary professions, with high levels and powerful combat power. As long as they know how to control mechas, they can exert huge combat power.
Renn looked at the Oma Academy as an obvious "cheating" move, and did not object, drinking coffee leisurely.
The combat effectiveness of mechanical armor is no one can say that he can't accept anyone by his mouth, nor does it mean that the pile of top technology must be very powerful.
Finally, there will be another fight before it can be clearly seen.
Because of the fight, a magic light curtain lit up on the ring in the exchange hall to prevent explosion and splashing from accidentally hurting.
On the ring, Carl, wearing a "little raccoon", and the combat power of the student wearing a "God of War" was separated from the two. The size of the two was very different.
One is less than two meters and the other is five meters.
Volume tonnage is also one of the most important advantages of combat mechas.
Generally speaking, the bigger the stronger the more you are.
Although the "God of War" uses a six-cylinder boiler, it is mentioned that a larger boiler can provide more energy. The thicker mechanical bones can make it have stronger loads, more stable mechanisms, and stronger armor...
Everyone in the audience looked at the fierce battle that was about to break out on the stage, and their eyes were full of expectations.
Even the students have never seen how powerful the "God of War" in the laboratory is.
This is the only time in countless exchange meetings over the years, and other academies have forced them to show their most advanced mechas.
"Who do you think will win?"
"That must be our academy. Since the mentors have brought out all the 'God of War', they will definitely not lose."
"I also think we will win. After all, the tonnage gap between the two mechas is more than twice. Not to mention the weapon system, once the fight is fought, even the 'little raccoon' is really an eight-cylinder boiler, it can't be compared."
"I don't think so. Haven't you listened to the guy from Black Dragon City before. Is this an 'agile' mecha? Do you think he will fight with the 'God of War' in a silly way?"
"Haha, agile type? Agility is the shortcoming of the fighter mech. How agile can it be? Besides, this is in the ring, the movement distance is so short that it is not enough to pull him... Don't worry, once it sticks, there will be no suspense in the battle."
“…”
The students whispered and guessed the outcome of the competition.
From the beginning of supporting one-sidedly, some people think that Heilong City can win.
Almost everyone has strong expectations for this competition.
In the audience, the eyes of the Master Oliver were shining with cold light, as if he had expected the ending.
To be continued...
