Chapter 123: Copycat Power Armor Plan and Phantom Dust!
Twenty-five minutes later.
The brightly lit interior of the base hall.
A Terminator power armor that was nearly 2.8 meters tall and weighed three tons was placed in front of Rorschach.
Right behind him.
The iron man David, with a slightly hunched metal spine, was lifting his metal head.
The blue light in the eye sockets constantly scanned the huge armor in front of it.
Soon after, Iron Man David completed the scan.
It shook its metal head and said to Rorschach, who was folding his arms,
"My Lord, I have a basic understanding of the internal structure of this power armor."
Hear the words of Iron Man David.
Rorschach narrowed his blue wolf eyes and pondered for a moment before asking:
"David, can you make some structural modifications? Without the assistance of the black shell, I can hardly drive this big thing."
"My Lord, the Terminator power armor consists of an outer layer of ceramsite armor, an inner adamantium skeleton, and electronic muscle bundles throughout the body... There are also various complex closed life support systems and detection systems."
Iron Man David takes a step forward.
Walked to the front of the Terminator power armor.
It raised its metal head slightly.
Staring at the metal lump that was much taller than it, he continued,
"I can 100% guarantee that the ceramic steel armor and the skeleton can be reassembled after disassembly. If the electronic muscle bundle only needs to be disassembled and installed, I can also do it... But I know nothing about other complex systems, especially the energy source in the power backpack."
"This Terminator in front of me is a technological 'black box' for me. I have only reproduced many parts, but to truly understand the technical logic, you need complete drawings and ideas..."
Iron Man David turned around and spread out his metal palm towards Rorschach.
"Please forgive me, my Lord... After all, I am just a construction worker, not a real mechanical priest. You need a super helper who specializes in this field. If you still have the energy to create a miracle, I wonder if you can bring back the living?"
Iron Man David raised his metal head.
Its two metal hands were lightly clasped together, and the mechanical voice seemed full of anticipation.
Rorschach grinned expressionlessly.
The hidden fangs were revealed.
He said with a stiff expression:
"Maybe there will be a chance in the future... but I'm afraid not now, David, is there really no other way?"
"Uh...My Lord, I have an idea."
Iron Man David suddenly turned around and looked back at the Terminator.
"If you want to transform it into combat power immediately, I can use ordinary metals on Terra to hand-make a copycat version of the Terminator power armor for you..."
"A metal skeleton that fits your body shape and an armored shell made of ordinary metal. With the help of the Terminator's own electronic muscle bundles, I will learn some scientific knowledge about force feedback, add a new energy source, or continue to use a power backpack... But this way, you may lack the support of many systems, and your combat ability may not increase much, and your survivability may be greatly reduced."
Rorschach listened silently to Iron Man David's simple thoughts.
A light flashed in his blue wolf eyes.
"David, why don't we just do this? It's a waste to just leave this thing here as a decoration..."
"My Lord, first of all, you need to understand that this project still has a high chance of failure... I still need to build Professor Connors' biological laboratory. Although the underground passages have been opened, some corners have not yet been installed with access control facilities..."
Iron Man David nodded and agreed without hesitation.
Then, it began to list the current task progress to Rorschach one by one.
Rorschach raised his sharp-fingered hand and covered his forehead.
He sighed and said,
"I understand, David, I understand... The existing Hunter Armor is enough to deal with any threat. There is no need to work overtime to save time. Just follow your plan."
"Thank you for your understanding…"
Iron Man David shook his metal head, turned around and walked into the base passage.
Its steps seemed to be much lighter.
With a helpless expression, Rorschach walked forward reluctantly and touched the cold and heavy ceramic steel shell of the Terminator.
He turned and walked over to the round metal table and sat down next to it.
Thanks to Iron Man David's plan to copy power armor.
Rorschach suddenly remembered something.
He searched around for a while, found a piece of paper and pen, and spread it out in front of him.
Rorschach first wrote down a name.
Tony Stark.
Then he wrote down many other words such as Morocco, Whiplash, Palladium Poisoning, Isotope New Energy, etc.
"The best strategy is to make friends and exchange the Terminator that is temporarily unused for technical support from the other party... But I am afraid that I can hardly tolerate Stark's temper and personality. Moreover, it is easy to attract the attention of SHIELD and Hydra in advance..."
"However, since we were planning to destroy Hydra and SHIELD, we are not afraid of exposing some things."
"The middle strategy is to have Iron Man David remind the other party of the danger of palladium poisoning and inform him of his father's inheritance in advance... and in return for saving his life, try to get him to give you new energy?"
"Uh...I'm afraid this is a bit far-fetched, right?"
"The worst option...rob him! Especially Ivan Vanko's first-generation energy is the easiest to get! If the timing is right, Stark's isotope new energy can also be snatched away!"
"Hiss... Why do I always feel that the worst option is the one that suits my heart best?"
Rorschach slowly narrowed his blue wolf eyes.
The tip of the pen in his hand drew a big circle around the word "bad plan"!
"Ah——"
At this moment, a cry from the equipment room suddenly interrupted Rorschach's thoughts.
He stood up quickly with a blank expression.
The tall figure ran towards the direction where the sound came from!
"Jessica, why are you so scared...what's going on?"
However, after Rorschach rushed into the equipment room with a frown on his face.
The words he hadn't finished speaking were swallowed back into his stomach.
At this moment, two Jessicas, who were almost identical in height, build, and even surprised expressions, stood in front of the weapons rack.
In her hand, she was holding a handful of fine powder that was constantly reflecting colorful luster!
Shocked, Rorschach made a rational judgment in an instant.
Placed in that position was the crystal ball that was taken as a trophy from the Minotaur Agger!
"Jessica! Do you feel any signs of mental invasion? Or any other changes that you think are inappropriate?"
Rorschach dropped his sturdy arms with an expressionless face.
The two palms with sharp fingertips were slightly opened.
As if he was about to launch an attack at the next moment!
"Uh, boss, I feel fine, I don't feel any discomfort... I swear this is the truth!"
And it seemed that Rorschach was showing signs of attacking.
Jessica was horrified and quickly threw the colorful powder in her palm back onto the weapon rack.
The next second, two almost identical Jessicas appeared.
One of the figures actually slowly dissipated into the air!
"Huh..."
However, Rorschach took a deep breath and blinked his blue wolf eyes.
He subconsciously bared his fangs and muttered softly:
"What I hate most about these wizard's weird gadgets is that they don't even come with a basic instruction manual!"
