The existence of plot symbionts allows some plot characters who are not combat-oriented to have considerable combat power. For example, senior media person Yang Lan and the SNG satellite vehicle. Although the source energy mutant clone cannot have the three-changing attributes of the MT.T transforming mecha, it can have two postures: mecha and primitive beast, and can transform into a vehicle: the SNG satellite vehicle. Similar to the Motorcycle Terminator and the NM4 Barracuda Transformed Armored Team, it has three postures: armored riding, armored flying, and armored maneuvering in between. The energy symbiote also has two deformation templates: "vehicle" and "mecha"; and three postures: vehicle, robot form, and robot beast form.
As an energy symbiote, Yang Lan, a senior media person who did not have combat attributes, became a 4-star MT mecha warrior, even surpassing the two 3-star transforming armor teams. Of course, there is a huge difference between transforming mecha and transforming armor.
The second of the five Iron-Blooded children has come out. Especially after seeing Yang Lan successfully selected, the femme fatale Lin Baiyu was inevitably moved. He is also a plot character with non-combat attributes. If he can become a plot symbiote like Yang Lan, Lin Baiyu will be able to obtain at least 4-star combat power.
Needless to say, whether you are in the Broken City or accompanying Wu Chen in and out of plot fragments. Strong own combat power is indispensable. Facts have long proved that without combat effectiveness, it is difficult to find a place in the Broken City.
"Master?" Lin Baiyu rushed to the hangar to meet Wu Chen.
"What's going on?" Wu Chen was supervising the final modification of the wheeled apron.
Viper, hammerhead shark, and hornet, the three aerial hunters faced each other and landed on the wheeled apron in an equilateral triangle. It saves the space of the hangar to the greatest extent, and perfectly matches the alien space-time door standing in front. As long as the wheeled apron keeps rotating, the three sky hunters can be sent into the time and space gate one after another to go to different plot fragments. Harvest profits for Wu Chen. According to Zhinao's plan, many side plots in the near future can be left to female warriors without Wu Chen having to do it himself.
"I also want to become a symbiote mecha warrior like Sister Lan." Lin Baiyu came early, and her relationship with Wu Chen became closer.
"Okay." Wu Chen thought for a while and said, "It's just that you lack a vehicle that can act as a 'plot symbiont'. How can you transform into a source clone without a vehicle?"
"I have it." The only thing Lin Baiyu brought out from the plot fragments was the Beretta double-barreled shotgun in his hand.
Compared with the SNG and Mk.21, the double-barreled shotgun is too small. Whether it is a creation that can be activated by the Source Energy Staff or not, there are two opinions.
"Master, you forgot the 'Femme Fatale Type I Powered Armor' on Lin Baiyu." Zhi Nao reminded: "According to the mistress's preset template, it is very likely to be activated into a kunoichi."
"Yes." Wu Chen nodded slightly: "But compared with SNG and Mk.21, the size is still not enough."
It’s not that Wu Chen didn’t consider Lin Baiyu, who had been unable to form a group. But since they are the same Jagged Team, their sizes should match as much as possible. Both SNG and Mk.21 are large mechas that are over 15 feet tall. Even though the Femme Fatale Type I powered armor can be transformed into a kunoichi, it is only human-like in height, which obviously does not match the first two teammates who are over 15 feet tall. And coordinated operations will also be a problem. Follow Zhinao's plan for Wu Chen. The three aerial hunters, Viper, Hammerhead, and Wasp, will transport three deformed armored teams to assist Wu Chen in exploring different plot fragments. The Iron-Blooded Symbiote team will serve as the backbone of Base 0326. In response to the sweeping day, a series of crushing crises. What's more, there are only five clone templates preset in the source energy staff. Wu Chen should strive for excellence and treat it with caution.
"Master, you can also organize Lin Baiyu, Trixie, Hel, Carmelo, and Nina into a five-person team." Zhinao suggested again.
"No need to rush." Wu Chen smiled at Lin Baiyu and said: "This is just the first cleaning day we have experienced. Our experience of the Broken City is only superficial. Before the next cleaning day comes, we still have a lot of opportunities. By the way, I have to mention Gear 5 later. Maybe there will be weapons from New Hong Kong that are more powerful than the Source Energy Symbiote, maybe."
"That's right." Lin Baiyu no longer insisted.
"Master, when it comes to raising files, I have another idea." Zhinao had another suggestion.
"What good ideas do you have?" Wu Chen asked with a smile,
"The plot symbiote may be obtained by loading the file." Zhi Nao speculated.
"What do you mean?" Wu Chen couldn't understand for a moment.
"Although the plot fragments where Lin Baiyu was located were harvested by the 0716 player. However, when the master completed the plot exploration, he successfully brought Lin Baiyu back. The rule of fragmentation: 'The cards are fragments'. Whenever the plot character improves the star level, read the card again It will be recorded as a 'new memory'. If you buy a vehicle for Lin Baiyu in the Broken City, and then read the card and record it as a new memory. Will they naturally become symbionts in the plot? There is no need to change from the original world. Bring out the vehicle.”
"New memory." Wu Chen understood. To put it simply, whenever the plot character attributes change and the card is read again, it will be recorded as a new memory. This is the so-called "new archive". As long as the vehicle and plot characters are entered into a new file together, they will automatically become plot symbionts.
"Only when the star rating of the plot characters increases, it will be recorded as a new memory." Zhinao added.
"So, as long as we find a way to upgrade Lin Baiyu from three stars to four stars by adding vehicles, we can achieve plot symbiosis." Wu Chen expressed his understanding.
"It doesn't have to be 4 stars, 3.5 stars is enough." Zhinao asserted.
"How can we upgrade from 3 stars to 3.5 stars by adding vehicles? And it must not overlap or conflict with existing equipment." Wu Chen asked again.
"Double nesting or function amplification." Zhi Nao gave the answer: "In addition to the Femme Fatale Type I power armor, nest a new vehicle to amplify the function. This will then increase the star rating and become a new memory."
"Use the source energy staff to transform into a symbiote mecha warrior." Wu Chen understood.
The operation is not complicated: the first step is to nest first; the second step is to read the card and record; the third step is to change the source energy; the fourth step is to read the card and record. Of course, Lin Baiyu's star rating was raised from 3 stars to 4 stars. This is the key to reading the card twice before and after.
"Where is the matching nested vehicle?"
Intelligent Brain quickly gave the answer: "'Ghost in the Shell A⁻ level plot fragment', there is a Hanhua Machinery 'Spider Tank' in the weapons warehouse of Refugee Camp No. 55."
The prototype of the spider tank comes from the special thinking tank of the ninth police class in the comics: Tachikma. There are a total of nine in the OVA version, the most well-known of which is: Yamaguchi Runner Series No. 126EX. They all have quite advanced AI systems and can operate independently or carry an operator to achieve human-machine interaction.
As Wu Chen previously knew, compared to civilian camp No. 13, the legacy technology of the resistance organization camp No. 55 is very considerable. Especially in the armaments warehouse, various advanced attack shells were removed due to fear of mutation, such as control chips and power batteries. Just a few changes can go a long way. Even if the automatic module is uninstalled and replaced with full manual control and intelligent assistance, it is still powerful against mutant prosthetics. It's just that Wu Chen came and went in a hurry at that time, and the criminals limited him to a three-day return date. Zhi Nao, who devotes himself to providing free medical treatment for refugees, has no hope of reform. The precious Spider Tank is still stored in Arms Depot No. 55, along with all the Ghosts in the Shell. As long as you enter the plot fragments again and contact the Major, you should be able to obtain them easily.
Then carry out the necessary repairs and transformations to bridge the consciousness of the Spider Tank and Lin Baiyu, who is wearing the Femme Fatale Type I powered armor, and then take out the fragments of the Spider Tank and enter the 0326 base. After completing the card reading to increase the star (3.5 stars), Wu Chen then released the energy warlock's special skill and transformed into an energy symbiote, completing the second card reading to increase the star (4 stars).
This is the point of reading the card twice. First, Lin Baiyu obtained a plot symbiote, and then transformed into a source energy symbiote.
"So no matter what, we are going to play another Ghost in the Shell plot fragment." Wu Chen thought of the warning from the criminals.
"Yes, Master." Zhinao certainly understood Wu Chen's worries: "As long as the prosthetic doctor issues the commission, we will follow."
"As I said before, don't be impatient." Wu Chen warned.
