Infinite Metaverse

Fu Qinghai did not pay attention to the entire battle between the mecha hunters and monsters, and learned about the outcome from the news media afterwards.

The level three monster "Ghost Car" is dead.

"Eureka Raider" seriously injured.

The last blow of the monster "Ghost Car" before its death severely damaged the cockpit of the mecha hunter's head. The pilots Heck Hansen and Chuck Hansen were killed on the spot. The father and son were killed on the spot.

"Eureka Raider", this legendary mecha that has single-killed eleven monsters, maintains the record for the highest kill streak among mecha hunters. It is currently the only fifth-generation mecha and the most advanced mecha at this stage. The hunter... temporarily announced his withdrawal from the battle.

Because PPDC no longer has enough drivers.

Pilots need to stay synaesthetically synchronized in pairs of three to drive Mecha Hunters. However, the current pilots of PPDC were so many dead and injured in the previous terrorist attacks by monster believers that they could no longer make even one pair. .

The nuclear wormhole attack plan was completely ruined.

Lust's plan finally succeeded.

Not to mention nuclear attacks on wormholes, who will protect the long coastline is now a big problem. Even though the anti-monster wall has been continuously upgraded and transformed, it has still become a joke amid multiple monster attacks. Global panic is brewing spread.

At the United Nations meeting, representatives from various countries were quarreling and blaming each other, but could not come up with an effective solution. PPDC’s last usable broken dome, the Xiangjiang Base, has been declared scrapped and the "Skua" has been restarted. "Plan" could not be achieved overnight. With no other solution, the "tactical nuclear bomb", a big killer weapon, was once again put on the plan.

However, are the monsters at this stage still the monsters that could be destroyed with a few tactical nuclear bombs?

How much yield is needed, how many nuclear bombs are needed, in what environment, and where do they hit?

You know, the first monster "Invader" that year cost three tactical nuclear bombs - because the first two tactical nuclear bombs did not hit the monster's vital parts.

Perhaps the word "tactics" in front of nuclear bombs needs to be removed.

…

United States, Bay Area, an abandoned mansion.

An overgrown lawn, collapsed Roman columns, dry fountains and ponds, a classical mansion.

Before buying the Broken Dome base in Anchorage, this was one of the secret bases where Xiao Fei used to hide.

After reading the news, Fu Qinghai commented:

"The 'Eureka Raider' obviously entered the battle in a hurry. Normally speaking, a level 5 mecha versus a level 3 monster should be a crushing match. Although there was a gap between the pilots Hansen and his son and it was difficult to achieve perfect synchronization, they won. Rich combat experience. Before the emergence of the level six mecha 'Saber Athena', the 'Eureka Raider' was the fastest mecha hunter."

In the nuclear wormhole attack plan, the "Eureka Raider" was originally responsible for the main attack because it was the only fifth-generation mecha. The protagonist of the movie "Dangerous Wanderer" was actually only a supporter because it was a third-generation mecha. With the halo of the protagonist, theoretically the combat effectiveness is not as good as the scrapped fourth-generation mecha "Storm Crimson".

Xiao Fei didn't comment on Fu Qinghai's news comments. He only focused on giving orders to his servitors.

The "instruction" here is that Xiao Fei turned to look at his servitor, and then the servitor took the order and left.

Fu Qinghai had no idea what they said.

Fu Qinghai had seen how Master Quinto commanded the skitarii and armed servitors - in the form of a data network. In the feudal world of Marzan, when Master Quinto handed over the command of the Mechanicus troops to Fu Qinghai, he also experienced the Mechanicus' special communication method.

Rarely is a means of interaction as pure as the exchange of data within a machine - the nerds believe that human interaction is an inefficient combination of vocal language and body language, in which much of the inherent meaning depends on prior experience, Reflective and situational markers of language. There is no such ambiguity in the dialogue method adopted by the Mechanicum.

Fu Qinghai agrees with this. Machine language and data exchange are indeed more accurate and less likely to cause ambiguity.

Chinese is a language with fairly clear meaning, so Chinese people don’t have a deep understanding of it. Let’s take a negative example: Korean. Korean is a language that cannot express its meaning accurately without the aid of exaggerated tones and expressions. It perfectly fits the Mechanicum's contempt and stereotypes of mortal language.

The technical priests Fu Qinghai has come into contact with, including Master Quinto, Master Buck, Master Wanak...including Xiao Fei, all retain the organ of vocal cords, whose only function is to communicate with "mortals" like Fu Qinghai.

It’s really touching when you think about it.

Then Xiao Fei turned to Fu Qinghai and said:

"I have notified all the players in the human camp that I can contact to gather at the Anchorage base to discuss how to deal with the monster threat and the hostile camp."

"OK."

Fu Qinghai nodded.

From one perspective: there is strength in numbers.

From another perspective: If a major event in the plot line is won, players in the same camp will be rewarded. Why should I work hard and work alone, while you guys sit back and enjoy the results?

While waiting for the players to gather, Fu Qinghai first received two video call requests.

Fu Qinghai sat down in a random room in the abandoned mansion, took out a laptop from a white suitcase, and started a video call. On the left and right sides of the screen were Panticost and Shao Liwen, representing PPDC and Shaw Industries.

"Ahem, long story short."

Fu Qinghai coughed lightly and said:

"We know each other well about the current situation. How many combat-capable Mecha Hunters do PPDC still have? How long will it take to restart the 'Jaeger Plan' to create new Mecha Hunters? You two, let's face the reality. Nuclear attack Putting the wormhole plan aside for now, we now need to consider the monster threat in front of us."

Panticost looked a little sluggish. He had just recovered from the radiation damage and was hit by another dart in the chest. Several of his favorite generals who had always followed him were either seriously injured or dead. It can be said that they suffered a double blow, both mentally and physically. The man lost his previous vitality and asked in a muffled voice:

"What do you want to do, Mr. Alien?"

Shao Liwen didn't say anything, and looked at Fu Qinghai curiously with her big eyes. She was now just one of the PPDC contractors, and she didn't have as much power as she did during the drone era. She didn't even know what the "nuclear wormhole attack plan" Fu Qinghai said was. I don’t know, I just want to see what advice Fu Qinghai has to offer.

"First of all, let me remind you, Marshal, although I have some superpowers and do not belong to this universe, I am definitely not an alien. Even in my hometown, being called an 'alien' is a huge... insult."

The empire advocates the doctrine of "human supremacy" and calling people "alien" is equivalent to an insult.

You can say that I am a "biological weapon" or a "killing tool", but you cannot say that I am an "alien".

"Secondly, I have a more mature idea about the current situation we are facing."

Fu Qinghai looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice:

"I want to build a Mecha Hunter."

Panticost and Shao Liwen were both stunned when they heard this.

In the end, it was the marshal who spoke first:

"So you think...a mecha hunter can solve all the problems we are facing now?"

Panticost looked a little puzzled.

"Yes."

Fu Qinghai said with great certainty.

"Doctor, I think you may not have an idea of ​​how big the Pacific Rim is."

Shao Liwen shook her head and said.

I think you may have a lack of understanding of how powerful the Mechanicum's weapons are.

Fu Qinghai thought to himself.

After all, they had worked together for a while. Panticost knew Fu Qinghai better than Shao Liwen, and knew that he was not the kind of person to talk nonsense. The marshal knocked on the table and reminded:

"Dr. Fu Shan, the two research reports "Potential Trend in Monster Size Growth" and "Monster Appearance Frequency Increase Model" were submitted to me by you and Dr. Hermann Gottlieb. Regarding the size and number of monsters, You should know better than me about the prediction.”

From the time the first monster came to the earth, it took five months for the second one to arrive, and three months later the third one arrived. After that, it slowly became one monster per month, and even gradually evolved into two monsters per month. , three monsters... Study the mathematical laws and predict the number of monsters in the future. This is Dr. Herman's "Monster Appearance Frequency Increase Model".

Both of them mean the same thing inside and outside:

A mecha is a drop in the bucket and is simply not enough to solve the current problems we are facing.

Fu Qinghai said:

"Yes, it is precisely because I have a full understanding of the number and size of monsters that I can come to this conclusion."

Fu Qinghai changed his angle and said:

"Two of you, let's make it clear first. There is no need to question my stance on fighting monsters, right? There should be no trust issues between us, right?"

If Zofia hadn't stepped forward at the critical moment, Panticost would have been killed by Naiden's knife. Similarly, if Jiang Yixia hadn't been under close protection for a long time, Shao Liwen would have been destroyed by countless reincarnations.

And Fu Qinghai was the person they jointly recommended.

This is a guarantee of trust.

In this regard, the two of them had nothing to say and could only nod in recognition.

"So, what are your specific plans?"

Panticost asked.

"I hope PPDC can transport a scrapped mecha hunter that is not too damaged to the Anchorage Broken Dome base. The higher the mecha level, the better. I don't expect fourth or fifth generation mechas. I can only ask for a third-generation mecha. Let’s divide it.”

Fu Qinghai made his request clear.

Just like not every forge world has its own Titan Legion, in the Pacific Rim universe, the Mecha Hunter is also a super weapon that can only be built with the whole country's efforts. Fu Qinghai can't wait to build a brand new Mecha Hunter. Taking an old Mecha Hunter and upgrading it is the best choice.

Panticost nodded slightly when he heard this, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Fu Qinghai then turned to look at Shao Liwen and said:

"After that, I will hand over the design drawings of two weapons to Shaw Industries, a laser weapon, a live ammunition weapon, as well as a brand new operating system and power core."

Fu Qinghai said directly:

"The power of the two weapons far exceeds the current level of Shaw Industries, and the same goes for the power core."

The implication is: trade technology for production.

Shaw Industries is really making a lot of money.

However, Shao Liwen looked unconvinced and thought, I want to see how your two weapons and power core are better than the technology of Shaw Industries.

Fu Qinghai didn't mention the operating system.

Because he would not hand over the key mecha control programs to Shaw Industries for production and manufacturing, the "lessons from the future" of the unmanned aerial vehicle's out-of-control rebellion are still fresh in his mind.

In "Pacific Rim 2: Uprising", Shaw Industries all uses automated production lines. Dr. Newton, who was controlled by the Pioneers, tampered with the drone control program, and Shao Liwen, as the chairman, had no knowledge of it.

This "operating system" is just a shell responsible for calculation and processing, and the real control core is Qing Ming.

"These are my two requests. Marshal, Mr. Shao, what do you think?"

Fu Qinghai looked at the two people and asked.

Panticost said calmly:

"I only have one question. After your mecha hunter is transformed, how will the driver solve it?"

PPDC now only has a bunch of ungraduated students, a bunch of half-grown men, and even Panticost himself may have to go into battle again. There is no spare pair of mature pilots to provide to Fu Qinghai.

Fu Qinghai still said the same thing:

"Don't worry, Marshal, I have a way."

Fu Qinghai felt that at this time of crisis, something encouraging was needed, so he said seriously:

"Two of you, the threat of monsters is right around the corner. Humanity has no way out. Think about those ignorant people in power and their derogation and distrust of mecha hunters. We need an iron-clad case and facts to prove ourselves. !”

Fu Qinghai stared firmly into Panticost's eyes, spoke firmly and sincerely, and said word by word:

"Marshal, you have personally experienced and commanded every action against monsters. I want to ask you, do you want to believe in nuclear bombs or miracles?"

Do you believe in nuclear bombs or in miracles?

Marshal Panticost was silent.

Finally, he raised his head and said slowly:

"Sorry, after careful consideration, I will not provide you with any scrapped Mecha Hunter, Dr. Fu Shan."

Fu Qinghai was stunned.

I thought I had already talked about this...

Marshal Panticost paused and said:

"The Australian factory has an unfinished level six mecha, a proof-of-concept mecha. I'll hand it over to you."

…………

The video call with two key plot characters was completed.

Fu Qinghai closed his laptop and breathed out a breath. Just as he stood up and walked out of the room, Xiao Fei walked towards him with obvious dissatisfaction and anger on his face.

"What's wrong?"

Fu Qinghai asked.

"All reincarnations in the human camp have rejected my invitation to gather."

Xiao Fei said angrily.

"What's the meaning?"

Fu Qinghai had just finished lobbying two key plot figures, and his mind hadn't turned around yet.

"They think the human camp has lost!"

Xiao Fei said:

"I just need to find a place to hide until the big plot event is over. There is no need to sell my face anymore."

"ha."

Fu Qinghai smiled indifferently.

"Then let them see it."

"Let's see who will be the final winner."
