Chapter 43: The Feasibility of Exoskeleton Armor
Thinking of this, Pang Chan shook his head and let out a cold sneer.
Ridiculous Earth.
What use is it to send satellites up? Facing an army like his, they have only one outcome, and that is to be ruthlessly crushed!
Thinking of this, Pang Chan said to the Taotie soldiers, "In the future, if you capture such blurry photos again, just ignore them."
"These are mostly satellites sent up by the Earthlings; no need to mind them!"
After Pang Chan finished speaking, he turned and left.
At this moment, Ye Cang and the others were sitting in the Central Control Room looking at the scenery outside.
Just then, the old man suddenly said, "Little Cang, I've only heard from Little Du that the aliens have now arrived in outer space."
"But the photos I've seen are all very blurry. See if you can get two clear photos for me to take a look."
"Of course, if it's inconvenient, then forget it. I wouldn't want this Luan Bird that just launched to be shot down."
This kind of thing was not difficult at all for Ye Cang.
He could completely use Zhizi to modify the photos of the Taotie Legion, but the protagonist this time was the Luan Bird, so he couldn't let Zhizi steal the spotlight.
Of course, the current Luan Bird was capable of this task.
Following Ye Cang's order, the Luan Bird deployed the Dark Alloy Special Detector into space.
A few minutes later, the photos were transmitted back.
When the old man saw the dense mass of Taotie warships in the photos, he was, quite rarely, stunned there.
It took a long time for him to come back to his senses.
"Is this the enemy we are about to face?" the old man said in a low voice. "The number is truly large!"
When the old man said this, he suddenly gave a heroic laugh.
"Hahaha, so what if there are many? Quantity doesn't count for much. Back then, the Little Devils had over a million men, and in the end, didn't they still slink back?"
"The aliens are no different!"
After speaking, the old man turned his head to look at Ye Cang.
"Little Cang, I didn't misjudge you. Your Nantianmen Project is excellent, but..."
Having said this, the old man did not continue.
Ye Cang naturally understood the old man's meaning.
"Rest assured, the Nantianmen Project is just a beginning. In a while, we will have our own Stellar-class Warship! It just needs a bit more time."
"I guarantee it to you!"
Looking at Ye Cang's firm gaze, the old man nodded.
"Little Cang, then I'll leave it to you!"
After the old man finished speaking, he said nothing more, but instead looked in the direction of Earth.
After watching for a long time, the old man finally said, "I'm tired, let's go back!"
Ye Cang nodded.
"Alright."
"Zhizi, descend in altitude, return to the atmosphere, and open the Tianhe Transport Plane cabin door."
"Zhizi received."
Immediately, Ye Cang led everyone to the location where the Tianhe Transport Plane was stored.
"This is the Tianhe Transport Plane, a large logistics transport plane. I won't go into the specifics; we'll just take it back."
Just as Ye Cang was preparing to board.
A researcher suddenly asked, "Chief Engineer Ye, are we all just leaving like this? What about the Luan Bird? Are we not going to look after it?"
After hearing this, Ye Cang explained, "The Luan Bird will currently be taken over by artificial intelligence and will roam above Huaxia; the other two Luan Birds are the same."
The mention of artificial intelligence made those present curious.
But Ye Cang understood what they were thinking and just said, "It's just a supercomputer I assembled myself, which I usually use for calculating data."
"Calling it artificial intelligence just sounds better."
Everyone suddenly realized after hearing this.
Immediately, everyone boarded the Tianhe Transport Plane and returned to Earth.
On the way back, Ye Cang said to that person privately, "After we return, I will hand over the Luan Bird control methods to you so that you can cultivate people capable of operating the Luan Bird."
"The Luan Bird has a high degree of intelligence, and with my artificial intelligence as an aid, operating it is not difficult, but the people chosen to operate it must be..."
Ye Cang did not say the remaining words.
However, the old man had already understood Ye Cang's meaning.
"Don't worry, I understand." As the old man said this, he suddenly patted his forehead.
"By the way, Little Cang, I remembered one thing. Do you know about the Hate Alliance of the Beautiful Country?"
"I know, what about it?" Ye Cang nodded.
He had seen some news about the Hate Alliance; they were considered Super Soldiers of the Beautiful Country, though in reality, they didn't have much to do with Super Soldiers.
The old man continued, "I remember that in the Hate Alliance, there is someone called Shidake who has a set of extremely advanced Exoskeleton Armor."
"I was thinking, although interstellar soldiers cannot be realized for a while, Shidake's exoskeleton is highly desirable, and ordinary people can easily operate it when wearing it."
"It just so happens we have suitable energy. Little Cang, what do you think?"
The old man's words were like a nuclear bomb exploding in Ye Cang's heart.
Ye Cang did not take in a single word of what the old man said afterward; now, his mind was filled with the five words: Exoskeleton Armor.
That's right, if Exoskeleton Armor were used to protect Super Soldiers, they wouldn't be afraid of God-Slaying Armor-Piercing Bullets!
Furthermore, Exoskeleton Armor wouldn't look as bulky as ordinary armor when worn on the body; on the contrary, it would be very convenient.
It can also significantly amplify strength.
Speaking of amplifying strength, Ye Cang thought of another problem.
It seems Super Soldiers do not need Exoskeleton Armor to amplify their strength.
An ordinary first-generation Super Soldier has one ton of strength from the start, and if they unleash their full power, 5 or 6 tons is not a problem.
In that case, the Exoskeleton Armor becomes a form of restraint.
It prevents the Super Soldier from fighting at full power.
One certainly cannot suddenly shout while fighting someone.
"CAST OFF!"
And then follow it up with, "Grandmother once said!"
Thinking of this, Ye Cang could not help but want to cover his face.
It is too embarrassing.
Just as Ye Cang was preparing to think deeply about whether the operation of Exoskeleton Armor was realistic or not.
A call brought him back to his senses.
"Xiao Cang, what's wrong? Why are you still dazed?"
"Ah? Sorry, I had an idea after listening to you, but I didn't know if it would work, so I thought about it deeply, which is why I was dazed."
Having come back to his senses, Ye Cang hurriedly explained.
The old man looked at Ye Cang's current state and did not blame him; instead, he said with a smile, "Since you have a good idea, I won't disturb you."
"I'm going to rest first, you just think it over carefully."
After speaking, the old man left on his own, leaving only Ye Cang standing there, continuing to think deeply.
Armor shedding is definitely not okay; that is too awkward!
Then let's change the line of thought: if the Exoskeleton Armor could become a part of the human body, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?
It would neither restrain the Super Soldier nor be difficult to control; this method is truly brilliant.
However, why does he always feel that this method is very familiar? It seems he has seen it somewhere before?
Hmm, the more he thinks about it, the more familiar it feels!
