Dragon City Military Academy, in the topmost classroom of an independent teaching building, there were twenty students of different ages, the biggest looked like they had already entered middle age, the youngest, for example, Wang Yao, was about eighteen years old.
But each of these twenty people had a unique temperament, either untamed, or introverted and calm.
The entire classroom was quiet, with no one talking to each other.
But looking closely, one could detect that these twenty students were more or less observing each other.
Just then the doorway of the classroom was pushed open.
Wang Suo walked in with his textbook.
"Hello everyone, let me introduce myself, my name is Wang Suo, I am one of your theoretical instructors for the mecha discipline, your instructors will be divided into theoretical instructors and practical instructors, there will be a total of four theoretical instructors, who will teach you the different formations, and there will be three practical instructors, one of them will be exercising your physique, one of them will be teaching you the mechanical operations, and the last one will be teaching you tactics, and the last one will be teaching tactics. You should also know very well that the discipline of mecha is newly established, so there are no ready-made instructors, including me, are also just getting in touch with it, what I can do is to teach you what I will learn and lead you into this discipline." Wang Suo said to the twenty elite of the elite students on the stage.
In fact, after he finished speaking, Wang Suo's heart was also a bit melancholy!
"Good day teacher!" All of them said back respectfully to Wang Suo.
Wang Suo nodded and said, "Now get ready to start the class, but before the class starts, there is one thing to emphasize, the knowledge that you have learned here are confidential level, any outflow is strictly forbidden, or else the consequences should be very clear to you."
"Understood!"
Then Wang Suo opened the imaging device, and an initial model of a mech that was not equipped with any weapons surfaced.
"This is the model of the 1.0 version of the mech, in terms of construction, it is very similar to a human being, its initial conception originated around Era 2000, and then it was initially set up in Era 2800 to solve a series of difficult problems, and it was truly finalized in Era 3002, with the famous ... "
Wang Suo very carefully introduced the origin of the mecha, and the basic performance.
Just at this time a student with unruly eyes stretched out his hand to interrupt Wang Suo's teaching.
"Sun Mu Rong do you have any questions?" Wang Suo opened his mouth and asked, although it was the first time they had met, Wang Suo had long since read all the students' information.
"I have some questions that I want to be answered before the official start of this discipline and don't want to hide them, I feel that although these questions are harsh, these are unavoidable questions, I don't know if I'm able to ask no, Mentor-sama." Sun Mu Rong looked like he was asking for advice, but was very forceful.
"The academic aspect itself is something that needs to be explored and solved, go ahead and ask." Wang Suo nodded back.
"Mentor from the parameters and performance you just gave, the mech is completely incomparable to the fighter in terms of flight speed, and the resistance to blows can only be considered very ordinary, and even sometimes because of damage to the parts, the loss of combat power, I don't understand why to restart this technology, although this discipline seems to be very competitive, but in my eyes it seems very chicken rib. "
"You're right, if you're purely talking about speed, mechs are definitely inferior to fighters, if you're purely talking about firepower, it's not as good as heavy weapons, and purely talking about resistance to blows, it's also very moderate, but you're forgetting one thing, mechs' biggest advantage lies in its versatility and applicability! Let me use the simplest analogy, if you want to take down a city in a fallen area, do you send a fighter jet there? A heavy tank? Or infantry? I'm afraid that a single type of soldier can't accomplish various combat tasks in the fallen area, but mecha is different, under the control of a good pilot, it's possible to do it alone in the fallen area, and it's role is not just simple combat so simple, he can even be capable of survey, transportation, looting and a series of other tasks, it only needs to be equipped with the corresponding equipment can be, just like you are in the fallen area! Found some high-value things, do not need to transport vehicles and other equipment, just rely on the mech can be directly taken away! Also when performing space operations, it can perform complex operations, is this something that a fighter can do?" Wang Suo asked in retort.
Sun Mu Rong was instantly somewhat baffled by the rebuttal and didn't know how to answer.
Wang Suo continued, "Don't just look at one side of everything, it's true that purely in terms of performance the mech is indeed inferior to other types of soldiers, but combined it's different, in a sense, he's the jumping version of the exoskeleton armor! It's the expanded version of a human! This is why we humans are obviously not the strongest creatures in nature, but we are able to become the master, its the same reasoning, because we are omnipotent!" (Note: Omnipotent here means versatile, not invincible or omnipotent haha! Don't misunderstand!)
"But, but if that's the case, we might as well develop robots?" Sun Mu Rong returned somewhat unconvinced.
"You are also right, robots are indeed good things, it can replace us to do a lot of things, even intelligent robots can replace us to do more than ninety percent of the things, but have you ever thought that there are two sides to everything, let's not talk about the fact that this aspect has already been blocked, I will purely talk about its value and role, you guys are most aware of the benefits of the existence of robots to us , I won't go into too much detail, there is so much value it can create, I'll just talk about the most insignificant part of the hidden impact, let's take the most realistic example."
"Before the civilization fault, our science and technology reached its peak, artificial intelligence was widely spread, robots were similarly widely spread, a large number of jobs were replaced by intelligent machines and robots, a large number of laborers were unemployed and had nothing to do, all of them became lazy, the social impacts caused are not to be mentioned, even the most basic agriculture was all done by them integrally, and when the civilization disaster broke out, you know we realized that a lot of people had forgotten how to even grow food, and during those tumultuous years, the world's population plummeted by three-quarters! Half of which died of starvation! A technology that doesn't seem like much of a threat actually still affects us in a subtle way, which is one of the reasons for banning robots."
"Since you said it so well, why did you ban mechs in the first place?" Sun Mu Rong asked in disbelief.
"This involves the technical level, mechs have a total of so many versions from version 1.0 to 2.0, initially when mechs were born, mechs were very cockamamie because the operation difficulty was too high and the dexterity was too poor, at one time they were used as auxiliary soldiers, since version 1.5 there has been a qualitative leap because the virtual intelligence system can assist the neural connection, complete the mechs and the Human neural synchronization, so that the mech completely become a part of the human body, thus greatly improving the flexibility, and in the 1.5 version before all the mechs rely on all the manual operation and auxiliary systems! And it was because of the hidden dangers of the Virtual Intelligence System that caused the mechs to go wrong, so the mechs were banned." Wang Suo explained.
