To solve the problem of the experimental equipment, Russell approached Hydra.
Even though he hadn't done anything yet after joining Hydra, I believe they wouldn't refuse to borrow Hydra's power in advance.
Besides, he was going to be the head of Hydra in the future.
He didn't hesitate to contact Bakshi directly in order to take care of the lab problem as soon as possible.
After hearing his request, Bakshi froze for several seconds before responding.
Although he didn't know exactly what Russell was going to do, after hearing that Russell was planning to look into the Inner Symbiotic Battle Armor, he immediately agreed without saying a word.
Don't you just want some lab equipment?
No problem, it's all yours!
Not to mention the lab equipment, even if Russell wanted blonde, black silk female assistants in white coats, there would be no problem.
With Hydra's help, Russell's military-industrial-technology lab was quickly set up.
Octopus Monster Military Science and Technology Laboratory!
Russell, who is incompetent at naming names, simply applies the firm's name.
When the lab was set up, Russell drove Peter to the lab himself.
The lab is located in Manhattan.
It's not in one of those prestigious office buildings, but the surroundings are pretty nice, and it's easy to get around and stuff.
The lab has three floors.
On the first floor there is a lobby, reception and dining room, on the second floor there is a laboratory and on the third floor there are offices.
Although Peter had been supplementing his knowledge of military technology for most of the month, after arriving at the laboratory on the second floor, after seeing those various instruments that he couldn't even name, a shocked look inevitably surfaced on the not-yet-adolescent's face.
In addition to Russell and Peter, the lab on the second floor was manned by more than a dozen lab assistants in white coats.
These lab assistants, all of them, were women, and all of them were young women with good figures and looks.
Perhaps knowing that Russell had little love for blacks, the female assistants were all white and Asian.
After seeing these experimental assistants that Bakshi had arranged, Russell felt more and more compelled to bring the historic organization of Hydra back on track.
Hydra and Bakshi were going to arrange for a couple more experienced scientists to come, but Russell turned them down without even thinking about it.
It doesn't take much to figure out what's going to happen when you have Hydra scientists working with Peter on the Endosymbiotic Battle Armor.
Russell didn't mind giving Hydra a little sweetener though, such as revealing to Hydra some of the not particularly important derivative technologies on the Inner Symbiotic War Armor.
But the core technology of the battle armor, he wouldn't give any of it away.
Whether it's the all-liquid intelligent metal technology of the battle armor, the energy source and operating system used by the battle armor, and so on.
These are technologies that are at the top of their game that even Tony hasn't developed yet.
Other than that, the energy core that the Inner Symbiosis Battle Armor was now using was going to be quite a bit more advanced than the small Ark reactor that Tony was currently using.
The reactor Tony is using right now is still made of palladium metal, which can lead to self-poisoning over time.
He won't be able to solve this problem until he discovers the new elements from Howard's fair model.
After leaving the shy Peter to greet the shapely and black-silk-clad female assistants, Russell made his way alone to his office on the third floor.
After closing the door to his room, he took the Inner Symbiotic Battle Armor out of the system space.
Instead of suiting up, he had the battle armor turn on Sentinel Mode.
The so-called Sentinel Mode actually allows the Battle Armor to perform tasks independently without the user.
Since there is no wearer, the armor is now on in its normal armor form, rather than the "low profile" form that reveals the face and hair.
When the Inner Symbiosis Battle Armor appeared, Russell went straight to the sofa chair behind the desk and sat down, saying to the AI 3 inside the Battle Armor, "Check all the systems in the lab, change the permissions, reset the firewalls, set up the private servers and databases, I want the lab to be clean!"
"Yes, sir!"
Battle Armor's AI System 3 said quickly, and an electronically synthesized man's voice rang out.
In terms of performance, the AI 3 used in the Inner Symbiosis Battle Armor would be no worse than Tony's Jarvis.
But unlike Jarvis, who has Stark Industries backing him up, there's a lot less that 3 can do right now.
Other than that, #3 is not as good as Jarvis in his ability to mobilize all kinds of resources.
Jarvis can mobilize and use all the resources of Stark Industries, such as satellites and servers and so on.
While No. 3 was no worse than Jarvis, all No. 3 could use right now were the various systems on the BattleMech's hull.
Of course, if Russell agrees to let #3 do the hacking, let it break into other groups' and organizations' equipment, and give it some development time, what Jarvis can do, it can do just as well.
As of right now, though, Russell is holding off on that idea for now.
This world was already messed up enough, and he didn't want to start an intellectual crisis like Ultron's in this world.
Number 3 maneuvered the Battle Armor to the front of the desk and turned the index finger of his right hand into the likeness of an electronic jack and plugged it into the computer port in front of Russell.
This lab was built with the help of Hydra, and it didn't take much thought to realize that Hydra must have hidden quite a few backstops inside the lab.
Russell isn't a top-notch hacker like Skye, but that's okay, he's got #3.
Not to mention hacking into the lab's system from the inside, even if it was from the outside, for No. 3, it was just a difference in how much time it took.
While #3 was checking the lab as he was told, Russell picked up a blank sheet of paper and scribbled on it.
Peter was a very smart kid, but it wasn't easy for him to develop a whole new set of military technology from scratch.
Russell has high hopes for Peter, but right now, he doesn't intend for Peter to do something beyond his capabilities.
Peter isn't Tony and can't do the job of developing the Battle Armor on his own, so Russell's pre-arrangement for Peter is simple.
Upgrade the weapon system of the Inner Symbiotic Battle Armor!
The current Inner Symbiosis Battle Armor has only the Arc Pulse Cannon in the palm and the Cluster Cannon in the chest as its main weapon system.
While there are several other different modes of arc pulse and cluster cannons, in general, the Battle Armor doesn't have a particularly large number of weapon systems right now.
Even with the addition of those scattered auxiliary combat systems, the Battle Armor is now a bit far from Russell's goal.
Unlike Tony, Russell possesses great personal strength in his own right.
So he's not quite in the same position as Tony with the battle armor.
Fire Battery!
He didn't need the battle armor to have an overly impressive melee capability, what he needed was a fire turret that provided a large amount of firepower output at all times.
From that point on, his positioning of the warjacks would be more on the firepower output side of things like War Machine.
The war machine that Colonel Rhodes started out with was modified from the blank slate Mark 2.
After being upgraded by Hammer Industries, the blank slate Mark 2, which didn't have much firepower, was transformed into a war machine with incredible firepower.
Russell wasn't going to let Hammer Industries meddle in the modification of the battle armor, so the matter of firepower enhancement he would leave to Peter.
