"There are roughly three commonly used attack methods for traditional fighting robots: smashing, sawing and shoveling. Other fire-breathing attacks are considered auxiliary attacks as a supplement to the first three." Peter said seriously.
After making the decision to participate in the robot fighting competition, the three of them went back to Parker Industries non-stop to create.
During the meeting to discuss the plan, Otto's glasses showed a sharp light.
It had been a while since he came to Parker Industries, and Dr. Otto was still an intern. He urgently needed an opportunity to prove himself and help him become a full-time employee, preferably a position higher than that of damn Connors.
He had built robots before, and this competition was a must-win for him.
Otto was silently competing with Connors, thinking that he must help Peter win this game.
"In short, there are many restrictions in this competition, such as the total weight of the robot cannot exceed 200 pounds. We have to build fighting robots within the scope allowed by the rules." Peter explained.
During the competition, robots built by both sides will fight in an arena with various obstacles. The referee will evaluate the score based on the damage caused by the robots of both sides. The judging criteria are relatively complex, but the focus is to measure whether the attack has affected the performance of the robot. causing impact and harm.
Otto suggested: "We don't need to make the robot's appearance very delicate. It's impossible to balance appearance and performance in such a short period of time. The best way is to pile it up, and pile it up bit by bit into a deadly monster." "
"I suggest using a fully alloy shell for the outer shell, plus a hinged chainsaw and enough horsepower to allow it to move freely around the venue. I think we will create a unique killer robot, like Deckard from Blade Runner. .”
Otto's tone became extremely excited when he talked about his crazy ideas, and finally he looked at Peter with eyes that looked at him feverishly, which made Peter feel a little bit creepy.
They quickly finalized the design plan and drew design drawings, which looked like a large spider.
Peter has decided to use the spider series throughout every Parker Industrial product, which will help enhance recognition.
Even if you really can't make it into a spider shape, you can still put a spider logo on it.
Otto used his extremely precise mechanical tentacles to perform various processes, and the final product was the same as Peter's design, but it looked a little more ferocious because of the extra mechanical tentacles and electric saws.
Then they worked hard all night to program the robot, debug, test run and other tasks.
After everyone only rested for an hour in the office, they rushed back to the New York Science and Technology Museum without stopping.
When the organizers of the competition saw the robots they signed up for the competition, they were not too upset. On the contrary, they felt that the workmanship was too rough and even seemed a bit shoddy.
After all, Peter and the others rushed to work in a short period of time, and some welding marks were not processed. The entire robot looked like a pieced together toy model, but its appearance was quite intimidating.
"Are you sure you want to use this robot to challenge the popular champion 'Destruction Mania'?" The kind staff reminded kindly: "The controller of 'Destruction Mania' has never been merciful to those robots that failed in the ring. All torn to pieces by 'destructive maniacs'."
His meaning was obvious. He advised Peter and the others to keep their works rare. The 'Destroyer' was a ruthless character and it would be bad to fall into his hands.
But Peter smiled calmly: "I'm very sure."
The staff sighed helplessly: "Fill out the form, and then go over there and wait for you to be called."
Peter looked at the robot name column in the form and resolutely wrote the four characters "Parker Industries".
When it came time to actually go on stage, the destructive manipulator looked at the rough robot that appeared on the ring and suddenly felt that he had won.
He thought that this robot called 'Parker Industries' must be a semi-finished product made by some amateurs. It was vulnerable and even the name was so ordinary.
"Rookie, let me teach you that not just anyone is qualified to participate in this competition."
Just when the competition bell rang, the mechanisms in the ring began to operate, sharp gears and nail barricades were activated, and special scene devices also intermittently ejected pillars of fire.
'Destruction Maniac' rushed towards 'Parker Industries' under control. Its steel fangs had already stabbed out, waiting to severely destroy the opponent in the event of a collision.
However, 'Parker Industries' did not move for a long time. The audience watching the game thought that Peter was inexperienced and were frightened by the fierce offensive of 'Destroyer Maniac'.
Just when everyone thought that 'Parker Industries' was destined to fail, Peter controlled 'Parker Industries' to jump at the critical moment.
It probably jumped only a dozen centimeters in height, barely escaping the blow.
The professional judges were dumbfounded. They could not imagine such a wild and unconstrained strategy, let alone that the robot created by Peter Parker could jump.
But what happened next shocked them even more.
I saw the 'Parker Industries' in the field stretched out after landing, and then stretched out four metal tentacles similar to the ends of arthropods from its back. Then, after taking aim and charging up, it launched a red energy beam to hit the 'Destroyer Maniac'. ' core part.
After the 'Destroyer' made electric noises and emitted a few wisps of white smoke, he completely lost control and collapsed on the ring.
This doesn't even require a rating, 'Destroyer' has already been KO'd.
In just ten seconds, this even broke the record for the fastest game ever.
It’s just that the judges looked at each other and exchanged glances. Are they not sure that this is okay?
This game was so unexpected.
This was the first time that a fighting robot fired energy beams in the ring, but they looked through the entire rule book and found no regulations that restricted energy beam weapons.
In the end, the referee with twenty years of experience ruled that the match was valid, and 'Parker Industries' won.
The host announced loudly through the microphone: "Parker Industries wins this game and becomes the new champion of the robot fighting competition."
The hearty competition made the audience enthusiastically chant the name of 'Parker Industries'. After all, everyone who came to watch the robot fighting competition wanted to see the stronger one win.
Peter's goal has been achieved, and now he has established the name of Parker Industries in a literal sense.
As long as he occupies this ring as the ringmaster, the host will keep repeating the name 'Parker Industries'.
The microphone will carry the name throughout the venue, leaving an unconscious impression.
The judges on the other side of the referee bench are already preparing to hold a meeting to discuss what should be done in the subsequent competitions to achieve a relative balance and not cause an instant kill result.
Then they started working out new rules overnight.
The use of high-intensity energy beam weapons in robot fighting competitions is prohibited.
