"This is our latest improved soul-guided mecha. Mingde Hall's recent research has made a breakthrough, allowing us to optimize this mecha to its current level, and it can now be manually controlled and moved."
In the core laboratory of Mingde Hall, Old Chen introduced to Xu Tianyang beside him.
In front of them was a giant humanoid mecha, with a large number of core magic arrays visible just on the surface.
Compared to the first time I saw it, the mecha is simpler and more streamlined, without many sharp edges. The metal surface is smooth, reflecting the light of the surrounding soul guide lamps.
It gives people a very heavy feeling, standing there like a mountain, feeling immovable and difficult to shake.
"Thanks to the forging method proposed by His Highness, the efficiency of metal has been greatly improved. The same volume of metal can carry more soul guide formations, greatly reducing the size of humanoid soul guides."
"Right now, all the people in Mingde Hall are waiting in the forging room, waiting for the processed metal. There's even a scramble for the good metal, and it's causing quite a joke."
"The current soul guides are at least 50% more powerful than the previous ones. All of this is thanks to Your Highness's contribution." Xuan Hongchen flattered him subtly.
"I just put forward an idea. How to realize it still depends on the continuous research of my predecessors. I dare not take credit for it." Xu Tianyang humbly looked at the group of seventh-level and eighth-level soul masters behind him.
Some of them looked at him with kindness and enthusiasm. It was because of these unknown scientific researchers who devoted themselves to research that the soul guide strength of the Sun-Moon Empire showed a steady upward trend. They were the backbone of the Sun-Moon Empire.
"Your Highness!" After being recognized by Xu Tianyang, everyone looked at Xu Tianyang excitedly.
"Your Highness, do you want to try it?" Old Chen stroked his long beard with both hands, looked at the scene with satisfaction, and asked Xu Tianyang expectantly.
"To operate this humanoid soul guide, now known as the 'Zero' mecha, requires at least the spiritual power of an eight-ringed Soul Douluo. Your Highness's spiritual power is more than enough to operate it."
Xu Tianyang looked at the mecha with interest, this big guy that he once longed for.
It is true that the power that the mecha can unleash now is not stronger than that of Contra.
This is also the reason why it has not been popularized after it was developed.
Even without wearing it, it is still the same strength as Contra, and even after wearing it, it is still the same strength, so what is the point of wearing it?
If you want to fully arm a mecha army, you need to continue to optimize it and let low-level soul masters use it to fully unleash its power.
However, this does not hinder my desire to control it.
"Okay!" Xu Tianyang did not refuse and went straight to the 'Zero' mecha.
With the injection of Xu Tianyang's soul power, the surface of the mecha glowed red and moved slightly. A mechanical sound came from the chest, and the metal on the front chest began to move to both sides. Under the gaze of everyone, the internal space of the mecha was revealed.
After sitting inside, Xu Tianyang took the main control headset next to him and put it on. Then he called on his mental power without hesitation to activate a large number of core magic arrays connected in series.
In the blink of an eye, the various indicator lights in the operating room started to light up one after another, followed by the outdoor lights.
"It's moving, it's moving!"
Amid the excited shouts of the crowd outside, the mecha slowly began to move. Its movements were a little stiff, but it actually did it.
After controlling it for a while, Xu Tianyang walked out of the control room. Facing everyone's gaze, he slowly said, "The mecha's energy consumption is still too high. Even a Soul Douluo-level soul master can't use it for a long time. It seems a bit useless."
"Indeed, this is the limitation of the first generation of mechas." Elder Chen sighed with regret upon hearing this, and then said excitedly, "Mingde Hall has now proposed a solution, which is to further reduce the size of the mechas. Once the size is reduced, the energy required to drive them will naturally be reduced, and the difficulty of control will also be reduced."
"As for how to make it smaller, that depends on the material of the mecha. With the materials we currently have excavated from nature, this is almost impossible to achieve. Therefore, the forging method proposed by Your Highness can be called a milestone invention in the history of soul guides."
Xu Tianyang just chuckled when he heard this. These are all future development directions, not his own achievements, so he has a clear understanding and is not proud or complacent. He is just a porter of the plan.
"With the accumulated experience of Mingdetang's many researchers, I believe we'll soon be able to process suitable materials. As long as we break down and solve the fundamental scientific and technological challenges one by one, we'll eventually be able to improve upon them."
Elder Chen nodded in agreement, then looked at the huge mecha with some regret, "It's a pity that I won't be able to see that day."
For a moment, everyone looked at Mr. Chen's gray hair in silence, their eyes full of respect.
"Old Chen's life span increased greatly after he broke through the title. According to the life span of a Titled Douluo, Old Chen is now in his prime, at the age of hard work. The optimization of Mecha No. 0 still depends on you." Xu Tianyang felt the sad atmosphere around him and chuckled.
"Hahaha..." Xu Tianyang's words immediately made everyone around him's eyes light up and burst into laughter.
Old Chen also looked at Xu Tianyang kindly. He was able to break through to the Titled Douluo level thanks to Xu Tianyang's planning.
"I forgot that I can still serve Your Highness for a hundred years, and the optimization of the mecha will definitely be completed."
Looking at the high-spirited Mr. Chen, Xu Tianyang smiled knowingly. After taking a group of people to visit several scientific research achievements, he left with satisfaction.
...
Xu Tianyang looked at the Vast Sea Universe Cover in his hand with a thoughtful expression on his face.
It has to be said that this Vast Sea Universe Cover, as the inherited treasure of the Sea God, is indeed somewhat strange and quite extraordinary.
After his spiritual realm became tangible, he felt more clearly the powerful force contained in the vast sea and universe cover, which was a power beyond the level of "mortals".
The Vast Ocean Universe Cover emits a soft blue light, rendering the room an ocean-like blue, which is very dazzling. One has to admit that there is nothing wrong with the Sea God's aesthetic taste. This Vast Ocean Universe Cover looks like a piece of art.
It has been quite some time since he got the Heart of the Sea God, but he has not shed blood to acknowledge its master. He is just waiting for the state of Ilex.
Compared to Sea God, he trusts Electrolux more.
"Is this the divine weapon?" The Ice Emperor saw the Vast Sea Universe Cover for the first time, and his eyes revealed longing.
"That's right, Bingbing. The first time I felt the aura of the gods on Xiao Tianyang was because of this thing." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was constantly making its presence felt in front of the Ice Emperor.
"Mr. Yi, can you see anything?" Xu Tianyang asked expectantly, looking at Electrolux who was in deep thought.
