The cockpit of Flowing Light's cha opened, and Fatty jumped down with a dejected look on his face. Looking at the scientists who had gathered around, he smiled bitterly and said, "Out of energy."
"Out of energy?" The scientists were all stunned for a mont. This experintal cha still had at least half a box of solid compressed energy blocks! You know, one box of energy could sustain high-load marches for tens of thousands of kiloters, can supply a thousand rounds of energy cannon fire, and support continuous high-intensity combat for seventy-two hours straight. Half a box of energy should last for at least thirty hours, shouldn't it?
However, how much ti had passed? Less than an hour! The energy's already gone?
Belchi rushed to the cha, pulled open the energy cover with one hand, pressed the button, and with a hiss, the energy box slowly moved out from the cha. Everyone leaned in to look, but the box inside the cha was completely empty except for the dozen or so miniature chanical clamps used to transport solid energy blocks. The energy liquefier was also empty.
"This..." Everyone looked at each other, feeling a bit dejected. When they were designing it, they knew that the magnetic instrunt and the specialized engine consud a lot of energy, and they were ntally prepared for it, but they never imagined the consumption would be this terrifying.
A cha without energy is nothing more than a pile of scrap tal, or a living target! No matter how fast your hand speed is, it won't do any good! Half a box of energy lasted less than forty minutes; on the battlefield, after one or two hours, wouldn't it be easy prey?
"Speak!" Weii Jianshan didn't care about the dejected scientists; he grabbed Fatty and said, "Hurry up and tell , what's going on here?"
Fatty chuckled, briefly explaining the principle and function of the magnetic instrunt.
Weii Jianshan's eyes widened as he listened. He was the first to directly experience the force field's effects, so he understood well what this thing ant.
"You made a two hundred kiloter raid just for this?" Weii Jianshan finally understood.
Fatty nodded vigorously.
"You provoked just to test this thing?" Weii Jianshan's expression darkened.
"So what!" Fatty glared, "Going to bite ?"
The two of them stared at each other for a long ti; Weii Jianshan angrily said, "My reputation is ruined, surely you should give sothing in return?"
"Want to install this thing on your cha too?" Fatty, a master of psychology, knew exactly what Weii Jianshan was thinking, raising an eyebrow.
Weii Jianshan nodded seriously.
"No way!" The rascal said with a face as unemotional as possible, "This thing consus too much energy, it's not ready for application yet."
"Bah!" Weii Jianshan shouted in rage, grabbing Fatty by the collar, "They may not know, but I do! This device's effect lasts only a few seconds. If you don't attack, half a box of energy could cause to fail dozens of tis; a full box could lead to die a hundred tis if attacked proactively."
The scientists' eyes suddenly lit up. On the battlefield, a crucial mont, an opportunity, once is enough!
Fatty, timid before tougher opponents, saw Weii Jianshan getting angry and softened, lowering his head, "Alright, I'll install it for you first, how's that?"
Amidst the noisy commotion, Markovich appeared beside Fatty and whispered.
"Colonel Tian."
"What's up?" Fatty asked, looking at the serious Markovich.
The crowd naturally parted.
Markovich reported, "Two Suss Armored Groups from the Northern Comrce Alliance have arrived at the Navarre Plain, 230 kiloters away. They are less than sixty kiloters from our Pingqi Ridge Defense Line. The antenna has already detected a large number of free signals from the enemy; based on density analysis, they have at least two platoons of electronic chas."
"Two platoons?" Fatty frowned deeply.
He understood that this ti, he was facing no longer the naive freedom fighters who knew nothing about modern warfare. Those preparing to attack were the Suss Empire... that nation with eighty million regular troops, constantly organizing and equipping for a century, ready to ignite a world war at any ti.
