The Wandering Planet

While the guards were leading the two of them through the hall, Qiao Lv quietly dropped a device the size of a USB flash drive while no one was paying attention, and kicked it into the gap under the chassis of a forklift truck.

This small and exquisite thing began to deform the moment it entered the bottom of the forklift. It stretched out several mechanical legs like a spider, and a miniature camera protruded from its head, just like a small Transformer.

This is a small spy robot developed by Wandering Earth using the deformable body technology. Under the remote control of the staff of Wandering Earth's intelligence department, it began to move dexterously between the gaps in the floor, and looked for a computer interface that could be hacked by itself.

Soon the entire Shattered Dome base will be brought under the control of Moss. With the computer technology level of the Pacific Rim world, it is impossible to even find out that their base has been taken over by Moss.

After successfully putting down the small spy robot, Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang were followed by the guards through the hall to the simulated combat area.

This is the place where they select the driver, and it is also the place where they test whether they can become a driver's first difficulty-the nerve empathy test.

In the very center of this simulated combat area is a huge Mech Hunter head, so big that Optimus Prime can get in without any problem, the size of this head alone is enough to make people feel shocked.

It looks like an enlarged version of a motorcycle helmet, and its model does not belong to any of the four mechas Qiao Lv has seen before. There are countless mechanical arms around the head of this mecha, making it look It looks like a simulated VR training cabin, which can simulate various vibrations in the cockpit of the mecha through the mechanical arm.

The two who greeted the two were Sterke Pantecost, the highest officer of the Broken Dome base, a black commander, and also the driver of the first-generation Mecha Tango Wolf.

Pantecost is also very surprised that there are still people who come to apply for mecha pilots. After all, since the mech hunter plan was abandoned, mecha pilots have never been treated like superstars in the past.

The current mech pilots are equivalent to outdated Internet celebrities, and they are becoming less and less popular.

It's even worse if you have to be a backup driver. Who wants to be a backup tire?

So Pantecost seriously asked Qiao Lv and Liu Peiqiang:

"Are you sure you want to participate in the backup driver selection? Even if it's just a neural empathy test, there are certain risks. Simulated driving training will even produce real pain. Even a backup driver is not so good."

Qiao Li said without hesitation: "If you are not prepared,

We won't be coming either. "

Liu Peiqiang also echoed: "Yes, that's why we are here."

"Well, I hope you guys pass the test, I do need a couple of backup drivers in case something happens."

After confirming the information of the two, Pantecost said to the staff on the side: "Take them to change the armor and see how our luck is."

So Qiao Lv and Liu Peiqiang were taken to the armor room beside them, and the staff began to put on the protective armor necessary for driving the mecha.

This suit of armor is a simple set of armor without any power system, not even a powered exoskeleton.

Its function is to protect the driver during driving, so as not to be injured when the mecha is hit by monsters.

The other main operation is to carry a neural connection system to connect the minds of the two pilots into one, and then jointly operate the Mech Hunter.

Their nerve connector is a spine-like metal strip, which is installed on the back of the driver's armor, and cooperates with the tactical helmet to receive the driver's nerve consciousness.

The interior of this suit of armor also needs to be filled with a special data relay gel before the nerve connection can be completed. The whole process can be described as extremely cumbersome.

It can be seen that their neural connection technology is far inferior to the neural interface technology obtained by Wandering Earth from Pandora. The latter allows the mecha to directly become a part of the driver's body, while the mecha hunters in the Pacific Rim still need a driver. Only by dancing in the cockpit can the control of the mecha be completed.

In this regard, Pacific Rim is indeed a lot behind Wandering Earth.

Of course, Qiao Lv would not express this complaint here. After putting on the armor, he and Liu Peiqiang walked to the head of the mecha hunter in the center of the simulated combat area, where the neural empathy test will be carried out.

Before the neural empathy connection was officially started, a line of code suddenly flashed on Qiao Lv's tactical helmet, but it only appeared for a moment before the line of code disappeared quickly.

This is the signal that Moss has completed the hacking. Next, Qiao Lv and Liu Peiqiang only need to dress together, and the neural empathy will not be truly connected.

Qiao Lu gave Liu Peiqiang a wink, and the latter returned a knowing look, and then the two entered the head of the mecha hunter.

The space in the cockpit of the Mech Hunter is more spacious than expected. It may be a bit crowded to let Optimus Prime in, but it is really no problem to let Bumblebee in and drive.

The two sets of fitness equipment located in the center of the cockpit make this place more like a gym than the cockpit.

But this is indeed the control method of Pacific Rim Mecha Hunter. Only when the driver makes corresponding actions here, Mecha Hunter will take corresponding actions.

Each of the two people has an operation panel in their hands, which is used to simulate the change of the mech's wrist weapon. When the mech's arm becomes a cannon, a holographic image of the cannon will also be projected here, turning into other The same goes for weapons.

Driving this kind of mech is really a physical job, the driver is basically equivalent to using his own movements to pull the action of the mech.

Among other things, just running with these dozens of kilograms of equipment can make people exhausted, which is really not good news for Qiao Lv.

"I knew I should exercise more."

Feeling the weight of the equipment on his body, Qiao Lu said that although he usually exercises, his physical fitness is still not comparable to that of a professional soldier like Liu Peiqiang.

"Do you need me to slow down and cooperate with you?" Liu Peiqiang also asked jokingly. In terms of physical fitness, he is indeed much stronger than Qiao Lu.

"Yeah, follow my left and right hand in slow motion." Qiao Lv said half-jokingly.

During the time they were teasing each other, the neuro-empathy system was primed.

The voice of Pantecost came from the cockpit: "Well, you two, prepare for neural empathy docking, this is the first level you must pass."

The adjutant next to Pantecost began to count down: "The docking will start in 15 seconds, 15, 14, 13..."

Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang stopped talking and looked at each other with a smile. They already knew what the result of this neural empathy would be!
