After the meeting, Ana Shen followed Bai Ye to the Logistics Equipment Department of the Special Affairs Bureau.
This department existed before the establishment of the Special Intelligence Bureau. It was formerly a federal special weapons research and development team. After the crack appeared in the sky, in order to prevent the ensuing changes, the Federation quickly expanded its entire weapons research and development department.
After the Special Affairs Bureau was established, Professor Qin used his connections to bring a team of sixteen people from City No. 7 to form the Logistics Equipment Department of City No. 18.
In particular, except for city No. 18, all cities ranked after 9 do not have their own independent weapons and equipment research and development teams.
This is also a unique benefit.
Led by the staff, Ana Shen and Bai Ye took the elevator to the third underground floor. After passing three more identity verifications, they finally arrived at the legendary equipment warehouse.
After passing through a metal door more than one meter thick, the entire three underground floors suddenly became clear to the two of them.
An area of more than 1,500 square meters has been used as the logistics equipment department of the Special Affairs Bureau.
Except for some cement pillars needed to support the building, they are densely packed with various equipment. The entire three underground floors are like a factory in full swing.
Staff members wearing white sealed lab coats shuttled between various equipment, and the hum of machinery echoed throughout the three-story space.
Bai Ye handed a document to a steward in the logistics department. The steward raised his head and glanced back and forth at Shen Yan and Bai Ye's faces, and said in a low voice: "You want a lot of things, I'll take you to the warehouse to get them. "
Bai Ye nodded: "Then I'll trouble Academician Xiao."
Ana Shen looked at the middle-aged man who was completely covered in an isolation suit. He looked like he was only in his forties, but he didn't expect that he was actually an academician.
Academician Xiao nodded, turned and walked towards the north side of the factory.
Ana Shen and Bai Ye followed him. Ana Shen asked Bai Ye quietly: "What does this Academician Xiao do? It is rare to see him become an academician at such a young age in the Federation."
Bai Ye lowered his voice and said beside Shen Yan: "He is Professor Qin's student. When he was a doctor, he and Professor Qin worked on a high-altitude offset metal project. It was also because they worked together to develop this special metal that they were able to work together again." Later he was promoted to academician."
"But even without this blessing, Academician Xiao's own scientific research strength is enough for him to rise to his current position, but it will only take a few years."
"High offset metal?"
"Well...it's a metal that's harder than diamond. You remember the two daggers I used, right? They were made of this metal."
After Bai Ye reminded her like this, Ana Shen immediately seemed to remember it.
When cleaning the realm of scavengers, Bai Ye used a pair of knives, which were far sharper and harder than ordinary knives, leaving a deep impression on Ana Shen.
Even in the Rabbit Duke Paradise realm, Ana Shen had used it before, easily disemboweling the mental monster that the carousel had turned into.
"It's indeed a good thing..." Ana Shen rubbed her chin and said in hope: "This time when we go out of the city, are there any equipment made of metal like this among the supplies we collect?"
"...Probably not. This kind of metal requires a particle collider, and the production cost is too high."
While they were talking, the two people had followed Academician Xiao through most of the workshop area and arrived at the warehouse door.
Academician Xiao entered the password, verified fingerprints and iris, and the silver metal door opened to both sides.
"You two, please come with me."
Ana Shen and Bai Ye looked at each other, then followed Academician Xiao through the metal gate and walked in.
Stepping through the gate, it felt like passing through a film of air, and Ana Shen felt that the surrounding temperature instantly dropped by more than ten degrees.
However, when he stood at the door before, he didn't feel the slightest bit of cold air flowing out.
I think this is also a black technology developed by the R&D department.
At the front of the warehouse is a display rack more than three meters high, with a large number of weapons and equipment of all kinds on it.
From various short knives and daggers as cold weapons, to electromagnetic firearms as hot weapons, as well as protective clothing.
Ana Shen even found a set of silver metal armor, which was covered in a glass showcase. It could be seen that this armor was a full-coverage human exoskeleton armor, which looked very much like the steel in old-era movies. Xia.
Bai Ye followed Ana Shen's gaze and discovered the existence of the armor.
"That was a kinetic energy armor independently developed by a mecha fanatic when the weapons research and development team was first established. However, it lacked a suitable energy source and was just a prototype."
In the movie, Iron Man first invented the Ark Reactor before creating a subsequent series of armors. For professionals, the shell of the armor and the weapon system it is equipped with are not a problem. The real difficulty lies in the Ark reactor that supplies energy.
If the cold fusion technology cannot be overcome and suitable fuel can be found, this kind of armor can only stay in the display cabinet and eat dust.
And then again, if the cold giant change technology is really conquered, then the human weapons industry will also usher in a new round of major changes.
By then, the battle armor that originally looked trendy may become useless.
Bai Ye and Ana Shen stood next to the display cabinet at the door, observing and admiring the various weapons and equipment on the display shelves. Academician Xiao had already walked over pushing a small cart with a metal box as high as one person.
"Everything you want is in there."
"Type III individual soldier suit equipped for ten people, including carbon fiber combat uniforms, combat helmets, individual electromagnetic rifles, and plasma tactical daggers. Please take stock."
As he spoke, Academician Xiao pushed the huge iron box containing weapons and equipment in front of Bai Ye.
Bai Ye's height of 1.9 meters didn't require too much effort when facing this metal box.
While counting the supplies, Bai Ye looked up at Academician Xiao: "There is also a set of nano-soft armor and a single-soldier flight backpack on the list?"
Academician Xiao said with some embarrassment: "Although the nano-soft armor was successfully developed, in our subsequent experiments, we found that its defensive properties are not strong, especially after it expands as the user's body changes. It will be further reduced, even inferior to the first generation of body armor.”
"How about I change you into a fourth-generation individual combat uniform?"
Bai Ye shook his head: "No need to bother, just give me the things on the list."
The reason why Bai Ye wants nano-soft armor is that it can expand and contract at will according to the change of the user's body shape. As for the defense... Even the fourth generation individual combat uniform has a high defense as the bone armor on his body. ?
Seeing Bai Ye insisting on nano-soft armor, Academician Xiao could only nod his head sadly. Turn around and walk back into the warehouse.
Ana Shen suddenly said: “Wait a minute.”
Academician Xiao turned around: "Is there anything else?"
An apologetic smile appeared on Ana Shen's face: "I'm sorry, I want to ask, I don't want that individual flight backpack. Can I exchange it for another one?"
Academician Xiao frowned: "What do you want to change?"
The production cost of a single-soldier flight backpack is not low, especially the fuel rods it carries. Academician Xiao would be happy to see him replace it with something else.
Ana Shen pointed to a black metal helmet in the corner of the display rack and said, "If possible, I would like to change it to that."
No one could hear it at this time, and in Ana Shen's mind, the clown was already making a scene——
"Boy, as long as you take it down, I promise you won't have any ideas about Li Lin anymore!"
"We must take it! If the old man doesn't agree, we will fight out of here!"
