Mecha and Knife

Ji Xinghe looked like a very normal grandfather today. He told Ji Rong Xinyue two fairy tales, and there were four other children listening.

There is no fable, no reasoning involved, just a pure fairy tale, and then watching the children fall asleep, Ji Xinghe got up and left the room to the machine repair area.

It's still early now, he usually goes to bed between twelve o'clock and one o'clock, and then gets up between five thirty and six o'clock, and the daily rest time is only about five hours. Whether it is left or right depends on what he did that day.

For example, after the last battle to chase down Earl's mecha, he slept for five and a half hours before he felt full of energy, but after normal machine repair work, he only needed to sleep for four and a half hours before he could wake up naturally. The state has been restored to the best level.

During the day, he will not need a nap to supplement his sleep like people his age. From this point of view, he feels that he should be able to use neural link technology in the future.

It was 9:30 in the evening, and Ji Xinghe, who came to the machine repair area, did not look for Shen Mu, but returned to the operation area he was in charge of. At this time point, many operating areas are continuing to maintain the mechas. The damage rate of the mechas is extremely high under the tense battle situation. The location of the front barracks is the real front line, and their related maintenance resources are not enough.

"Master." "Master."

The mechanics in the operating area were very happy with Ji Xinghe's safe return. Among other things, the maintenance efficiency in their operating area dropped a lot after Ji Xinghe was gone.

"Master, a few days ago, a merit list was created in our machine repair area. It is ranked according to the difficulty of repairing the mechas, the time to complete the repairs, and the merits of the final actual machine test scores."

"There are rewards for the merit list. It is said to motivate our work efficiency. It can be regarded as a reward. Everyone has worked a lot longer than before, and the efficiency of daily work has improved a lot. According to the previous basis Calculating the contribution points of salary and performance commission seems to disrespect everyone's work progress."

"We have no objection, but after all, we are mechanics, not mechanics, and are not considered real professional soldiers, so they have made some changes in this regard."

"It's mainly for the newcomers. Many mechanics in the operating area have applied to be transferred to the front line, because the frontline mechanics have sacrificed a lot... Sigh, the newcomers who came to the base are not used to the alien environment. , The gravity of our life in the base is different, not to mention the fact that we don’t see the sun all year round, and some radiation will affect the physical condition, if the work intensity is too high, they will not be able to bear it.”

"With the incentives, the newcomers have become very fierce. Responsibility and motivation go hand in hand. Is that what you say?"

Due to personnel transfer, besides him, there are only seven people left in Ji Xinghe's operating area. Only one of them is at the level of a professional mechanic, and the other six are equivalent to assistants, apprentices, and interns. Their theoretical level In fact, it is completely enough, but when leading the maintenance work, they are not very experienced, and it has something to do with the personality of some of them.

Some people are very good at completing tasks assigned by others, but when they are asked to lead the allocation and arrangement of related tasks, some people tend to be careless.

During Ji Xinghe's absence, a professional mechanic replaced him in charge of this operation area, but the efficiency of the entire operation area has dropped significantly.

"Master, if there was a merit list before, we could at least have been ranked in the top 20, but now we are ranked 98th, which is not at the same level as the top 20. When you didn't come back We all gave up on the chase."

Professional mechanics also call Ji Xinghe their master. In fact, the difference in professional level is not that big. He has higher theoretical knowledge than Ji Xinghe, but there is an obvious gap in practical ability. Coupled with the age gap, he is called so. no problem.

After Ji Xinghe came back, he breathed a sigh of relief, and asked with a very expectant expression: "Now that you are back, Master, what should we say?"

The other six people also looked at Ji Xinghe expectantly, who wouldn't want to be on the list? The incentive effect of the existence of the merit list is indeed obvious.

This is also directly related to the fact that the life in the base is too boring. People can't only have work and proper leisure and relaxation to be able to relax. It seems that the existence of the merit list is to put more pressure on them, but in a sense, this kind of healthy competition is equivalent to everyone playing a competitive game together.

Talking about something is better than nothing.

"What do you think?"

When Ji Xinghe asked, he was checking the merit list related information on his wristband, which was similar to what his mechanical apprentices said. In addition to contribution points, the specific rewards were mainly resource rewards that were relatively scarce on alien planets. .

For example, food resource rewards include real chicken, beef, mutton, fish, and so on.

The meat that the Alien Life Base usually eats is synthetic meat or some canned food, and the meat in these rewards is said to be fresh real meat.

Breeding chickens, ducks, sheep, cattle, and pigs on alien planets is actually not that difficult. The real difficulty in farming is fish farming. The federation's water resources on alien planets are completely sufficient to meet everyone's survival needs and washing needs, but to meet everyone's needs for fresh fish food, the required breeding water resources are not enough.

There are also tea, coffee, milk... These are very common and cheap resources on the blue star, and on the alien star, they can become a group of professional mechanics, and they will be rewarded with a list of achievements with a smile on their faces.

"Of course we want to rush, not for these rewards, but mainly because we are the Galaxy Squad, master, if we can't compare to them, especially some newcomers who just came to Alien Star, how can we brag in front of them? .”

"It's not enough to brag, it's just when we are chatting, as soon as we say that we are with you, Master, they will look at us with admiration and curiosity. As a result, when we look at the list of meritorious service, we are almost ranked one hundred It’s too embarrassing to be beyond the name.”

"Master, do you want to go out to perform combat missions recently? Combat missions are still the main thing. If you destroy more imperial mechas outside, we can still brag about it. Ah, it's not bragging, it's just a normal chat, hahaha..."

After listening to everyone's opinions, Ji Xinghe nodded.

"There should be no combat missions recently, so let's charge."

"Okay, okay, let's make a dash, and we must make it to the top twenty."

"We won't make it to the top 20. We're already far behind. Let's go to the top 30. If Master guides us, it won't be a big problem to make it to the top 30."

"Yeah, we are indeed a lot behind, but it doesn't matter, the rewards for the top 30 are also quite a lot."

Listening to what the apprentices said, Ji Xinghe also saw the relevant data of the list of meritorious service. There is indeed a big gap between the meritorious value of their operation range and those of the top-ranked operation range. When everyone is working very hard, it is actually very difficult to catch up.

But he didn't think so. He didn't look carefully at the merit values, but only saw the time. The actual implementation of the merit list was three days ago, which means that he was only three days behind.

"No." Ji Xinghe said softly: "We have only one goal."

The other seven people in the operating area were all stunned, could it be...

"First."

Ji Xinghe thought of what Ji Rong Xinyue said to him today, and looked at the seven apprentices in the operating area with a calm tone: "We want to take the first place, do you have confidence?"

"Yes, of course."

"Fuck, Master, I wanted to say I won the first place a long time ago. If I was not afraid that you would be too tired after going out to perform combat missions, I would have said it just now."

"No, no." Someone suddenly denied it, and then looked at Ji Xinghe expectantly under the attention of everyone: "Master, you shouldn't ask such a question."

The others also suddenly thought of something, and at the same time looked at Ji Xinghe with expectant eyes, and their breathing became short of breath.

Ji Xinghe was a little helpless, but he still pondered a little and adjusted his tone.

"You guys, do you trust me?"

"Believe." "Believe." "Believe."...

This question is like magic, when it is asked by Ji Xinghe, whether it is a member of the Xinghe team, a super mecha fighter like Jackson, or the mechanics in these machine repair areas, they all seem to be Like being blessed with fanaticism, the combat ability and maintenance ability have been significantly improved.

The maintenance work officially started, and Ji Xinghe seemed to have completely forgotten his plan to change the sword to a sword, and did not go to see Xingyue, whom he had not seen for many days, and plunged headlong into the operation area he was in charge of.

View all maintenance tasks, formulate corresponding maintenance plans, and assign different maintenance tasks according to the maintenance capabilities of each mechanic.

These tasks are not difficult for Ji Xinghe. He has worked as a master master in the largest auto repair factory in Xinfeng City for decades. The apprentices under him have not changed from batch to batch, but from generation to generation a generation.

In contrast, his ability in arranging maintenance work is stronger than all the professional mechanics in this mechanic area, which is the advantage of being older.

Although the goal of maintenance has changed from cars to mechas, when Ji Xinghe has mastered almost all the maintenance methods of mechas, his work arrangement is as professional as when he was in an auto repair shop.

He deserves the title of the best auto mechanic in Xinfeng City, and he can also be the title of the best mechanic in Base No. 5.

Before changing to today, he didn't really care much about it, as long as he could earn merit points. But it is different after today, because he gave his granddaughter a belief, and the premise of this belief is that he wants to become a true legend.

After sorting out today's shooting materials, Su He came to the machine repair area to shoot. He hadn't shot Ji Xinghe for many days, and he didn't shoot enough today.

Seeing the busy operation period, Su He was a little puzzled. He originally thought that Ji Xinghe would work with Shen Mu first to finalize the design plan of changing the sword into a sword.

After inquiring, Su He understood why Ji Xinghe wanted to hit the first place on the list of meritorious service in the machine repair area.

He added a sentence to today's shooting material: The legendary road starts from the machine repair area.

...

The time came to twelve o'clock in the evening, and Shen Mu, who had completed today's work plan, did not wait for Ji Xinghe to come to him, so he ran directly to the operation area that Ji Xinghe was in charge of.

Ji Xinghe was working here as he expected, and Su He, whom he was thinking of, was also filming here.

Instead of looking at Ji Xinghe, Shen Mu came straight to Su He, and looked at Su He with strange eyes for a long time.

"What to look at."

"See if your hands and feet have been replaced with mechanical ones."

"roll."

Shen Mu didn't roll, but leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Did you really fight Lao Ji for more than 20 minutes, and still didn't get hurt?"

"Yes, I have video proof, do you want to see it?"

"If you want to see it, show it to me."

A few minutes later, Shen Mu sneered after watching the video: "That's it?"

"Just tell me if I fought Lao Ji one-on-one for more than 20 minutes, and whether I was unscathed."

"Yes, but if that counts, then it's fine if I fuck me."

"It's a pity that you don't have a chance, hahaha..."

"Who said that?"

Shen Mu left Su He aside, and joined Ji Xinghe who was doing maintenance work.

"Old Ji, if you say that I help you modify that mech epee, is that considered a big favor to you?"

"Calculate."

"Then can you do me a favor?"

"you say."

"Hey hey..." Shen Mu laughed and waved at Su He, but what he hadn't counted was.

Su He shook his head: "Sorry, I won't shoot."
