The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 73 68. Good wine is rare

Gray fell into silence after listening to his words. She crossed her hands and wiped her head, lowering her head without saying a word. Netate also fell silent. He looked at the black tea in front of him and didn't know what to say. Finally, he stood up and looked at Gray and asked

"By the way, do you have any wine? Have a drink! This can make us temporarily forget the sufferings of the past."

After hearing this, Gray thought for a moment, but after rummaging through a cabinet next to the experimental table for a while, he finally took out a bottle of wine. When Netate saw the bottle of wine, he couldn't help but praise it.

"I've heard of this wine before. It's a wine from Quartis! What's the name of it? Golden Cognac! Yes, that's right, that's the name. It is said that the world where this wine is made has completely disappeared or is not at all It doesn't exist in this world, but the wine named after that planet is a good drink! The nobles of mankind even resorted to assassination and deception to get such a bottle of wine. Where did you get it? This thing?"

After hearing this, Gray said casually

"Ten years ago during the Damocles expedition, a unit found it during a space battle. At that time, this thing was placed in a six-layer safe in the thickest armored part of a cruiser. After the navy got this thing, Decided to hand it over to the Great Pyramid as a sacrificial item.”

"So that's how you got a bottle of wine like this?"

"Otherwise, they were the ones who gave it to me."

Looking at Netate who looked doubtful about life, Gray smiled helplessly and said. Netate just opened the bottle and smelled a strong aroma of wine.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to find some fruit and ice cubes. I can mix this stuff!"

After ten minutes, use lemon and a little Rica brandy, and finally pour a lot of ice cubes made of pure water into it, and a cup of real golden cognac is ready.

The two of them each poured a glass, and Netat took a cautious sip. As a result, the artificial blood spread on his face, between the bridge of his nose and lips, and he actually blushed, as if he was really drunk. Then he drank it all in one gulp and couldn't help but praise it.

"It's so good! Try it quickly, it tastes so good."

"I can't taste it."

"Don't worry, this taste penetrates into the soul, and you can still drink a little bit of it."

Seeing Netat patting his chest in assurance, Gray, who seldom drank alcohol, took a cautious sip. There was actually a strong aroma of wine that reached his tongue, allowing him to taste the wine. This was nothing like the whiskey and beer she had drunk before. Just like Netat said, the taste penetrated into the soul.

However, after drinking this glass, Gray sealed the wine again, and Netat, who wanted to drink another glass, felt a little disappointed. Gray looked at him with a dead fish eye.

"I called you here to help with the experiment, not to drink together. We'll talk about it later."

"It's a bit disappointing..."

Despite what he said, he was still very honest, and Gray said from the bottom of his heart that choosing such an assistant was a wise choice. The super-heavy tank design that originally took one or two years to complete now takes only half a year to complete. Under the frantic work of the two people, who seemed to be desperate for their lives, the first original design drawing was finally sent to the first manufacturing factory.

The design drawings of this super-heavy tank named Zhurong were approved as soon as they were sent to the chief designer of the manufacturing plant, not because of the majesty of the ancient saint, but because this heavy tank is indeed very suitable for today's military requirements.

Soon a prototype of this tank, named after a general of the Ancient Saint, was quickly produced. In the battle with the Human Empire, the opponent's Baneblade super-heavy tanks and Makarian super-heavy tanks left a deep impression on them. Although the Dragon Knight can effectively destroy them, there is no such super-heavy equipment. The Auxiliary Lord of Odessa is in great pain. Among the weapons they currently equip, only the urgently produced Kirin C-type destroyer can penetrate the enemy's frontal impact within 500 meters. If it is a Kirin armor tank, it needs to be at a distance of 100 meters. Only then can it penetrate the enemy's front armor.

Now, the Zhurong super-heavy tank has solved this problem. The 200mm caliber heavy rail-accelerated artillery can launch a 70kg armor-piercing projectile and a 120kg plasma high-explosive projectile to a distance of 2,400 meters to 4,000 meters, and can penetrate the Baneblade super-heavy tank at a distance of 1,500 meters. front armor.

Compared with the empire's super-heavy tanks, the Zhurong super-heavy tank is shorter, with a height of only 8.2 meters, so it has fewer secondary weapons and equipment. The top of the car body is equipped with a 45mm automatic rapid-fire cannon. There is a three-barrel 25mm machine gun juxtaposed with the main gun barrel. There are two small protrusions on the bank frame equipped with two 75mm caliber mortars. And two 12.5mm self-defense machine guns, the mortar can eject conventional ammunition and special ammunition, including flash bombs and smoke grenades. There is a twin-mounted 8.5 mm self-defense machine gun turret at the rear of the vehicle for engine maintainers. The vehicle has a total of five artillery pieces and four self-defense machine guns. To be fair, the strength of the bicycle is estimated to be inferior to that of the Baneblade super-heavy tank, but it is strong in that it can be manufactured and equipped on a large scale.

Soon, after a week of testing, this super-heavy tank successfully passed the guarantee of various complex terrains and various conditions. After thinking about it, the military decided to purchase 150 vehicles and install them separately in the entire four areas. War zone, used by troops close to the Human Empire.

In the laboratory, Netat rummaged through the storage cabinet to find the bottle of wine again, looked at Gray who was watching TV idly and said

"Gerry, do you want to have a drink to celebrate?"

After hearing this, Gray changed the channel and said quietly

"No, I feel like the design is not very successful."

"I think it's pretty good. At least it can resist the same product from the Human Empire."

"You do not understand."

Gray stood up from the sofa again and looked at Netate, who was opening the plug again and explaining.

"If the product we create only catches up with the enemy instead of surpassing the enemy, then it is meaningless. And the tank we designed only catches up with the enemy. This is impossible for me. accept."

"What about the ones you designed before?"

Netate started mixing drinks as he spoke. Gray thought for a while, thinking about the things he had designed in the past, and finally said

"All have caught up and surpassed them, such as exoskeleton powered armor, such as the new gun battleship that is about to roll off the production line."

Netate nodded after hearing this and said with admiration

"Indeed, do you want a glass of wine? I've already opened it. Good wine is rare, enjoy it!"

After hearing this, Gray smiled, took the glass, and drank it in one gulp.

I have something to do this afternoon, so I’ll update in advance
