From scrap mecha to sci-fi heaven

"It's number 5, and it's still usable... I'm lucky."

Lin Yu stopped by the roadside halfway to dismantle the supercomputer cabinet and take out the hydraulic oil.

Relying on the experience memory given by the mecha engineering skills, he estimated the condition of the hydraulic oil after a brief test and breathed a sigh of relief.

With this number 5 hydraulic oil, the last piece of the puzzle is complete.

The hydraulic transmission system essentially converts kinetic energy into pressure on the liquid, and uses pressure to transmit and finely control kinetic energy. This hydraulic oil is the medium that carries and transmits this pressure. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the blood of the Dawnbreaker.

Now that it has blood, the Dawnbreaker can be regarded as a real mecha that can move, not a toy that can only be displayed.

Of course, the real completion is not just changing the hydraulic oil.

Calibration, testing, fine-tuning, repairing various errors and leaks, welding external armor, a series of processes, a week has passed in a flash.

"Upgrade requirements completed!"

"Mechanical Engineering LV3→Mechanical Engineering LV4"

"Your relevant knowledge has been further improved; you have mastered the research and development, manufacturing, and maintenance of the second-generation mechanical armor."

"You have opened a new upgrade requirement! (Expand to view)"

At the moment when the Dawn was completely completed, the familiar light blue light screen flashed again in the field of vision.

Having experienced it several times before, Lin Yu was already very familiar with it. He did not look at the prompts, but calmed down and began to recall hard.

In the depths of his mind, countless knowledge and memories that seemed to have been learned and practiced in person "re-emerged".

Mathematics, physics, machinery, information, energy...

Various experiences in manufacturing mechanical armor...

This feeling of gaining knowledge is more intoxicating than anything else.

Curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge are human nature.

No one does not want to become better and more knowledgeable.

The reason why I don't like to learn is that the process is too difficult, the pleasure feedback is too long, and the frustration when I can't learn is too strong.

With the existence of this magical panel, even when he was asked to read various books in person before, he had clear positive feedback. He also knew that as long as he read, he would gain something, and the things he didn't understand would be integrated when his skills were completely upgraded.

So even if he read books by himself, he could read with relish, and the large amount of knowledge and experience gained without any effort when his skills were completely upgraded, as well as the pleasure of integrating all kinds of knowledge, made him feel so happy that he couldn't extricate himself.

"Second-generation mecha technology..."

After sorting out the knowledge in his mind, the light in Lin Yu's eyes became brighter.

The so-called second-generation mecha technology does not refer to specific technology, but concepts and various related knowledge.

The first-generation mecha, that is, Dawn, is a very conventional mechanical armor, energy, power, transmission system, and various sensors.

The difference between the second generation and the first generation lies in the control mode.

The first generation uses somatosensory interaction or myoelectric interaction, which controls the mecha by capturing the human body's movements or electrical signals during muscle activity.

This kind of control is quite limited. Firstly, it is limited by the accuracy and sensitivity of the sensor, so it is impossible to perform too detailed operations, and the overall operation will be clumsy.

Secondly, if it captures human body movements or electromyographic signals, the shape and activity mode of the mecha will also be limited.

This is why most mechas are made in human form, and even the degree of joint torsion must be bionic to the human body.

The second-generation mecha uses the direct connection technology of neural signals to directly intercept the neural signals sent by the brain!

Although the most ideal state can only be used for humanoid mechas, its response speed and accuracy will be improved many times, and even with the corresponding bionic body structure, it can flexibly use various fighting skills.

This also includes anti-joint movements that normal human bodies cannot do.

The neural signals are intercepted, and the human body itself does not need to be synchronized. As long as the structure of the mecha allows it, it can be folded as it wants, and it is no problem to kick the back of the head.

"Unfortunately, it is also countless times more complicated, and the requirements for processing accuracy are too high. Many key components are almost irreplaceable..."

Soon, Lin Yu shook his head again.

Compared with the first generation of mecha, the second generation of mecha technology is indeed a cross-level improvement. As long as there is enough time, he is sure to design specific drawings.

But it is a bit unrealistic to manufacture it in the wasteland with discarded parts.

After getting familiar with the emerging knowledge memory, Lin Yu summoned the light blue light screen again and checked the upgrade conditions of the fourth-level mecha engineering.

"Upgrade requirements-test: use your own work to complete a high-intensity battle to test its performance, defects, and environmental adaptability."

"Upgrade requirements-team: form your own R\u0026D team, with no less than five members, and members must have extremely high related talents or skills. (Qualified people will be specially marked)"

"Upgrade requirements-breakthrough: design and manufacture a complete second generation mecha."

"Three..."

After reading it, Lin Yu pondered slightly.

Three upgrade requirements, the test is okay, the last two are not easy.

It is almost impossible to manufacture a second generation mecha in the wasteland, and forming a R\u0026D team, not to mention that he does not have the capital, just how to recruit members with so-called "extremely high talents or skills" is a problem.

Although we don't know how high this extremely high is, this kind of talent is definitely the object of competition among various forces. What can he use and under what name to recruit these people?

Rely on the 5,000 yuan in his pocket?

Rely on his unregistered status as a survivor of the wasteland?

So, the latter two tasks are extremely difficult for him now.

But it is understandable. Not to mention the fourth level, the third level mecha engineering alone is actually very powerful.

You can't build a mecha from scratch, but that is the nature of engineers. Engineers are applied disciplines, and in fact, the development of science and technology has always been more and more subdivided. The more you go in the future, the manufacturing of a screw may have a special discipline and position.

You can design and assemble a mecha based on waste parts, even if it is a mecha with poor performance, it is definitely an elite talent level.

This is still the third level mecha engineering, and the current fourth level has gone a step further, and the knowledge and experience memory are as vast as the ocean.

In this way, it is normal for the fourth level to be promoted to the fifth level above this.

If others know that it is so "easy" to improve their knowledge and skills to that level, I am afraid they will be envious.

No need to study hard, no need for talent, no need for research and practice, what is the difference between this and getting something for nothing?

"It seems there are some extra benefits..."

After a quick glance at the upgrade requirements, Lin Yu's expression suddenly changed slightly, and his eyes fell on the second upgrade requirement.

Will the qualified be specially marked?

And the qualified are high-end talents with talents and skills related to mecha research and development and manufacturing, and they are still very high?

Doesn't that mean that I can completely rely on this to find and contact such people?

Even if I can't recruit them, these people are all high-end talents or geniuses, and they will definitely have a bright future in the future.

A little contact, even if I can leave a trace of affection, will be of endless benefits in the future, and maybe it will come in handy at some point.

"Brother Lin, the meal is ready."

Just at this time, Bai Wei knocked on the door outside the mecha workshop.

"Qualified"

"?"

Lin Yu's expression froze.
