Chapter 23 - Demonstrations

Zhou Chuchu walked over and said, "You guys must have seen one before. This one isn't for sale though, but we can discuss terms when it's in production. The newer model is currently underway."

Wu Changming hurriedly pulled Zhou Chuchu back and asked, "Are you saying that it'll be out for sale soon?"

"Depends," Zhou Chuchu said softly. "Because we're not in charge of making the Gatling gun, you'll only be able to see it when the time comes."

After hearing this, Wu Changming and the others could only sigh in defeat.

Because by that time, they wouldn't be the only ones who would get the chance of having a rare one.

Just as they were about to say something, the organizer suddenly appeared.

"Coming up will be Xiao Yuyao's work."

After hearing this, everyone present stopped what they were doing to focus on his work.

They've been waiting all day for this. They were eager to know what it was.

Xiao Yuyao walked to a small podium in front of them.

This made the audience confused for a moment, no one understood what he was doing there.

Why did he go there?

At the same time, someone asked why his work was hidden there. Is there a reason for it to be covered?

Zhou Chuchu was the first to say, "Hello, what you are about to see today will change the way you think about the world. This work is so advanced that it can be used in all aspects of life."

Zhou Chuchu's words piqued the curiosity of the audience.

They wanted to see what this multifunctional thing was.

Zhou Chuchu smiled as she looked at the livestream.

"As for what I mean by that, you will be seeing it in a while. Just a hint, it's just like wearing clothes, but this one can withstand fire or bullets."

Hearing this, the directors and the audience in the livestream were even more puzzled.

A piece of clothing that could withstand fire and gunshots? Was he making armor made of iron? Impossible! Those can't withstand the heat.

Everyone scoffed at Zhou Chuchu's exaggerated claims.

A piece of clothing will not be able to withstand all that.

All the scientists stopped talking and stared at the small room in front of them.

It was covered in black cloth. It filled the audience with endless temptation, wanting to open it up.

Soon, the lights were all directed to the podium.

The black cloth was slowly lifted. The audience became excited when they saw what was happening inside.

The armor was painted red, and there was a white round light shining in the middle. The mask was golden and… Wait… Wasn't this Iron Man's suit?

[I was just about to say only Iron Man's suit could withstand fire and bullets.]

[He actually modified it and made it a complete set!]

[There shouldn't be that many functions. After all, he only had a few days to make it.]

The livestream went livid. Director Li, Wu Changming, and the others hurriedly pushed their way to the front.

They wanted to cross the boundary, but there were guards blocking them. Therefore, they could only lean against the wall and pay attention to the mecha.

This scene was immediately screenshotted and posted online.

For a moment, everyone that had access to the internet was obsessing over the mecha.

The board of directors was leaning so forward that they looked like children lining up waiting for their ice cream.

It was enough to pique many people's curiosity and make them come to the livestream. After seeing what the commotion was all about, many of them stayed to find out more.

A few of them even fainted after seeing the prototype!

Seeing that it was almost time, Zhou Chuchu began to introduce the newly shared mecha.

"Everyone, this is Xiao Yuyao's exhibition work. It is a mecha or an exoskeleton armor.

"It was made from the previous semi-finished product. It took Xiao Yuyao a few days to finally make it into a complete one.

"It's also filled with the latest technology. It's not just for show.

"The armor is made of carbon fiber composite material, and it only weighs forty-five kilograms!

"In addition, it is extremely sturdy and can withstand the impact of bullets. It is not afraid of fire because there is a constant temperature regulator inside.

"It will release cold air inside to maintain the temperature and to prevent the system from overheating. Moreover, with such strong armor, it'll be more than enough to withstand the battlefield."

Xiao Yuyao began to show his skills.

He suited up and confidently walked around.

Words alone could not prove anything, only actual combat would work.

The comments kept rolling in, along with gifts.

Could it be that a new era was coming?

By then, everyone would have their own mecha.

Moreover, this thing was fireproof. It would be very useful for firefighters.

When the time came, the firefighters would have no fear and rush into the fire with this suit. Their lives would no longer be in danger and they would be able to save more people.

While she explained, the trending searches changed again.

[Fly Into The Sky With This New Mecha!]

[A Firefighter's Dream! Making Things More Efficient!]

After Xiao Yuyao put on the armor, the fine outer shell wrapped around his entire body.

Although it fit snugly, it did not hinder his movements whatsoever.

Every joint could bend and rotate naturally.

The more he tested the suit, the more in awe everyone became.

Zhou Chuchu smiled. She had long expected that these things would definitely cause a sensation once they were released.

At the same time, she didn't expect Xiao Yuyao to promote the mecha in a way that would be alluring for firefighters. 

However, due to the limitations of the venue, some functions could not be fully displayed at all. Therefore, some functions were only explained instead of shown.

The light shield opened and closed, causing people to shudder. Then, Xiao Yuyao controlled the armor to slightly hover off the floor.

He was doing the same thing Iron Man did. Although he was only a dozen centimeters from the ground, he was still considered flying.

At the same time, Xiao Yuyao's voice came from inside.

"Due to the limitations of the venue, I've modified some weapons on the inside to special items."

Before anyone could react, Xiao Yuyao stretched out his arms.

The white crystal in his palm suddenly burst out with a bright light.

This light shot out and exploded in the air.

Then, tiny white flakes started falling to the ground, as if it was snowing.

After seeing this scene, no one had the capacity to respond.

The only thing they could do was open their arms and cheer.
