Chapter 182, Gene Seed Implantation Surgery
Powered exoskeleton and power armor are two different things.
Although welding the armor plate on the exoskeleton will make the two somewhat similar, and even make the steel plate shape according to the power armor of the Star Warrior, it is not impossible to cosplay, but in fact it is far from it.
In essence, the powered exoskeleton just provides soldiers with extra load-bearing capacity, which makes it easier for them to carry a larger load on their backs, and at most a few steel plates are welded to prevent bullets.
For example, the life support system, electronic muscle bundles, tactical system, auxiliary shooting system contained in the power armor of the space warrior... none of them, and it is impossible to have the same protection.
But with such a set of equipment, it will allow trained elite mortal soldiers to use bolters that are difficult to withstand the recoil.
Or continue to use laser guns or electromagnetic rifles.
Then carry some heavy firepower of individual soldiers on your back, and you can carry any rocket pods and the like on your back.
Add a chainsaw sword, and train the soldiers to T2 or T1 level...
Such an elite team, with their hard work, can barely be used as a super beggar version of the Star Warrior.
The key is much cheaper.
A set of Power Armor costs [-] tax coins, and a set of exoskeleton costs only [-] tax coins, a difference of [-] times.
Can a space warrior kill forty elite soldiers with chainsaw swords, bolt guns and exoskeletons?
Maybe it can, but there is also a high probability that it will overturn.
Genuine space warriors, I am afraid that they can easily kill these super beggars one by one; but conversely, elite soldiers with bolt guns, chainsaw swords, and exoskeletons also have the ability to threaten space warriors.Ordinary tactical power armor can block bullets and laser guns without much pressure, but loyal bolters and roaring chainswords don't show much emotion.
In the face of ordinary soldiers, elite special warfare with full equipment can also experience the effect of crushing damage.
The 10th Special Forces Brigade established by Gu Hang intends to set up a few teams to try it out.
It is far from being able to replace the space fighters, but at least it is enough to perform some sub-level special missions.
That is, the production capacity of this production line is so-so. It is estimated that the monthly output is only [-] sets, and it is only used by special elites. If it is implemented on a large scale, the production capacity will not be able to keep up, and the cost will be too high.
When Wu Jiarong has the ability to successfully reverse this technology, and then expand production, and wait for the overall productivity of Nu Xiaoxing to improve, maybe Gu Hang can arm an elite division with all staff equipped with exoskeletons?
Hope that day will come soon.
...
After completing the specific transaction, Wang Jiarong also asked a question curiously:
"If there is no compensation from Blackbird Heavy Industries, what are you going to use to pay for the genetic engineering equipment you want to buy?"
Gu Hang grinned: "Our Nu Xiaoxing is not really poor and white. Even if it was in the past, it is not now. Our productivity, if you collect 50 tax coins, can't you make it up?"
Wang Jiarong was still a little suspicious, but she didn't ask any more questions.
But in fact, Gu Hang never worried about this problem.
Without the money from Blackbird Heavy Industries, it would be a big deal to buy less things.As far as that set of 50 genetic engineering equipment is concerned, if you try to make it together, you can finally get it together.If you sell 100 armored vehicles, [-] million sets of individual equipment, or dismantle two production lines and send them to the sky, the money will come.
Of course, that affects planetary development.
Now that I have a windfall, it will be even better, and I can buy a lot of extra things.
...
After the corresponding items were transported, some of them were handed over to the Research Institute, and some were handed over to the Phoenix Squad.
Of course the Phoenix Squad is very happy about this.
Although, in the half a year or so since they came to Fury Owl, three of them died, and the phoenix was already on the verge of extinction, and now the situation is even worse.
But at least, this bite gave them a lot of energy.
Supplementation and replacement of weapons and equipment are actually not that important, but the set of gene seed implantation surgical equipment saved lives.
Martins and Rizzo plan to carry out three operations in the near future, hoping to bring three new blood to the battle group.
Gu Hang was a little suspicious about this.
"Is there a need to be so anxious?" He raised his opinion, "Among the group of teenagers you recruited, are there three most suitable candidates? They have only been training for less than half a year."
"Ah..." Martins, who was supposed to be extremely tough, showed a sad face at this moment, "The governor is right to be worried. To be honest, their qualifications are the best we have found, but they are still far away. It is far from enough, and the training is not up to the standard. But we... have no choice. Before that, we did not have the technology and ability to properly preserve the genetic seeds. Simple preservation methods cannot maintain the vitality of the seeds for a long time. If we continue to delay, The probability will only be lower, we can't wait to find more suitable people and give those teenagers better training."
This is indeed a practical factor.
Gu Hang asked: "So... how do you estimate the probability?"
Pastor Rizzo, who was silent before, spoke now: "The probability is very low, I'm not sure."
"Can the success rate reach 50.00%?"
Martins smiled wryly and shook his head: "Maybe not even [-]%. But... at least one success, as long as one is successful, the battle group has its first new blood, at least there is hope, and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. Not so desperate anymore."
Gu Hang also could only sigh.
He patted Martins on the shoulder and said, "I hope everything goes well."
This sentence, Gu Hang said sincerely.He really hoped that the three seeds of the phoenix battle group would all be successful.
Building a battle group is something that Gu Hang can't afford for the time being, let the space fighters play by themselves.Three more space fighters, three more... If it's only a dozen or a few dozen, it won't be enough to shake Gu Hang's authority.
Seeing the undead bird look like a bear now, it's too early to think of that level.
Even, if Gu Hang doesn't provide cheating help, he might not be able to reach it in his lifetime.
However, things are often so unsatisfactory.
Just a week later, Gu Hang received a message from Martins.
The first operation failed; in the next few days, there were two more bad news in a row.
When Gu Hang once again came to the Phoenix Monastery, which had already begun to take shape, he was not able to meet the commander of the Matins Chapter.
According to Pastor Rizzo, Martins Salas shut himself in the prayer room and did not come out for a long time, and he did not allow anyone to disturb him.
To be honest, seeing Martins like this, Gu Hang also understood compassion.
After the phoenix landed, as long as there was a call from Gu Hang, they would definitely respond, and every time they followed the needs of Gu Hang, they worked desperately every time—half of them died.
He is very sorry for himself, Gu Hang has to admit this.
It is precisely because of this that the surgical equipment is ready and new; the power sword is bought; the Terminator armor is bought...
However, he still felt a little guilty about giving one seed with one hundred points.
But now is not the time to take it out.
As for what is the right time... To be honest, Gu Hang doesn't know either.
No matter how compassionate and guilty he is, Gu Hang can't take the risk of being reported to the trial court after taking out the gene seeds in the first hand.
Reporting to the court depends on the status of the informant.If a cat or a dog reports a governor, it will be investigated, and the trial court will not be able to be busy even if it is expanded a hundred times.
But if a battle group leader does this, it is completely different, and the weight is different.
He must be sure that after taking out the seeds, he is absolutely safe, otherwise he would not do it.
Say it in private.
However, Gu Hang also noticed another thing.
Pastor Rizzo's state doesn't seem quite right.
Gu Hang turned his head and stared at Rizzo for a while.
Rizzo also looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Hangdao: "I'm a little surprised, Your Excellency the head pastor, you seem to be calm and not sad?"
He did find it strange.
Martins was in so much pain that he didn't want to see anyone anymore, so he locked himself in the prayer room; the other two people in the battle group were sad, bewildered, overwhelmed, and desperate... These expressions can no longer be concealed from them It can be seen in the numb expression.
But Pastor Rizzo seemed very calm. When talking with Gu Hang, there was no change from before.
But now, hearing Gu Hang's question, he even showed a smile: "Whether the operation is successful or not, it is the God Emperor's will, and we should learn to accept it."
"Yes, that's right." Gu Hang responded first, but then asked, "But aren't you worried about the future fate of Phoenix?"
The smile on Pastor Rizzo's face became clearer. He looked at Gu Hang and said seriously: "The fate of the battle group does not depend on the success of these three operations, but on you, Your Excellency the Governor."
Gu Hang frowned deeply.
The appearance of this magic stick made him very uncomfortable.
He said cautiously: "Your Excellency, I don't understand what you mean."
At this time, Rizzo did not answer Gu Hang's question directly, but said: "The God Emperor will decide everything."
...
When Gu Hang left Phoenix Monastery, he was full of doubts.
The attitude of the old pastor really made him a little tangled.
He acted as if he knew something.
But it's not appropriate to think too much about it, it's useless to think about it, he doesn't even have enough manpower to monitor these superhuman fighters, so he can only ask some staff members who entered the Phoenix Monastery to pay more attention and report more.
The Phoenix Monastery is next to Weixing City. Since he came here, Gu Hang stopped by to inspect Weixing City. The last stop was the secret research institute chaired by Wu Jiarong.
The things bought from the Beautiful Maiden, except for the Phoenix Squad, are for the research institute.
Gu Hang originally wanted to see how the research institute was doing with the purchased technologies, but as soon as they met, Wu Jiarong complained to him fiercely.
This girl from Mechanicism is quite dissatisfied with Governor Gu's oppression of her.
In the past, she didn't dare to express a similar attitude, for fear that after she knew the governor's big secret, her mysterious life, which was originally mysterious, would disappear immediately.
But after getting in touch for a long time, she found that the governor is quite easy to get along with.As long as you do your own thing well, the Governor General will not be very strict.
Then she gradually dared to speak out what was in her heart.
Gu Hang was very happy about this.
If the subordinates are afraid of themselves, it's not impossible, but Gu Hang doesn't want to go too far.Loyalty should come from awe, not fear.It's not that fear cannot bring loyalty, but while fear brings loyalty, it also brings hatred, which can easily turn into betrayal.
Awe, love, trust...these are much better.
Gu Hang hoped that his subordinates would dare to express their needs clearly to him, maybe it would be better.
However, what Wu Jiarong said this time made Gu Hang a little embarrassed.
"You can no longer put one scientific research project after another on me like this. I don't even have time to study the black box and improve my level."
What Wu Jiarong said was not just a complaint, but actually pointed out a very practical problem.
"Various scientific research projects are squeezed here, and many projects have no connection with each other. It's not that I'm being lazy and complaining about the heavy workload, but that there are not enough scientific research personnel. It's impossible to do these jobs. It's over. I know that these technologies are in your plan, and each of them is actually very important. If it is not a dispensable thing, then you must not be able to accept it. Many of them will always be in the schedule indefinitely , I don't know how far into the future I will be queued..."
"Hmm..." Gu Hang nodded.
He admitted that Wu Jiarong was right.
"But what is your suggestion?"
"My suggestion is that you must have more talents with scientific research capabilities under your command. I know that it is very difficult to find many such people in the environment of Nu Xiaoxing. But the more this is the case, the more You need to make preparations in advance, just like you built Xifeng Faithful Descendants Academy, you also need a technical academy."
"Of course you can." Gu Hang said, "This was originally in my plan, but...Wu Jiarong, are you interested and have time to be a professor in this academy?"
Wu Jiarong sighed helplessly, and said: "If this is your order, Governor General, of course I have no problem. However, you also need to bear a consequence: if I spend half of my time teaching students, all scientific research projects The time required for completion will be doubled."
That's the price.
Do you want to advance those scientific research projects as soon as possible, or do you want to throw people into schools to teach?
Although the former is not fast, it is currently the most profitable.The technology of synthesizing starch still needs to be optimized. The effect of the new production line is incomparable with the one removed from the starship; It was said that it was used for the speed attack boat, which caused the effect of the laser gun to not be fully exerted, and the wind falcon had to use energy crystals with a much higher value as fuel, which was a huge waste.
Not to mention, there are still a lot of technologies that need to be reversed, hydroponic farms, water purification equipment, spiritual gas collection equipment, exoskeleton production lines...
Without Wu Jiarong, a scientific researcher who has actually reached the level of a mechanical priest, all these tasks will stop.
