Several low tents were firmly planted on the top of a snow slope a few hundred meters away from Langjuxu Military Station. The leather felt doors had already been frozen extremely hard and were not easily shaken by ordinary winds!
The fixed iron ropes outside the camp have long been covered by thick ice, the same color as the ice field beneath their feet!
Like all military stations, this is an ordinary guard post outside the Langjuxu Military Station. Conveniently under the snow slope is the metal round platform. Since the metal round platform was built yesterday by Lord Mavon Panshi, this outpost has Then he was recruited by a group of black-clad soldiers!
In a certain camp, the woman who had just finished reading out the rules of the competition had just opened the curtain and sat down, and had just opened her hood, revealing a face that was obviously much rougher, but still as calm as the night sky.
Behind her, a tall female figure stood silently, but the armor under the cloak completely covered her head and face, with only her extremely conspicuous shoulders raised high!
The tall figure suddenly froze at this moment, and in the wind and snow outside the tent, there seemed to be a strange low sound coming from far to near!
The strength of this quiet woman will always be similar to that of the tall figure, and she is much stronger than before coming to the north. Naturally, she also heard the strange noise, but she was just a little confused and waited quietly, because of the darkness outside the tent. The armored soldiers did not stop him, and the person who came was obviously one of his own.
But that sound was the sound of the "Magic Snowmobile" speeding towards us. This magical creature is also a type of "Magic Motorcycle", with a maximum speed of 160 kilometers per hour, which is comparable to that of many masters. It can fly at full speed, and the internal driving force array can work continuously for more than 40 hours on a single charge. It also performs very well in terms of sturdiness and noise reduction design, making it very suitable for ice and snow environments! But the cost is much more expensive than the "Magic Locomotive", and it cannot be applied on a large scale. In the entire north, only this black-clad armed force has this equipment!
Under the vigilant and hidden gazes of the black-clad armored men, this "magic snowmobile" seemed to come through the snow at the fastest speed, with the two streamlined sleds standing upright at the front almost breaking away from the snow! The row of small wheels at the rear and the metal tracks on the periphery rotated forward quickly, plowing a deep mark on the ice field! The gray-white all-over spray paint still has a very significant concealment effect, and even the unpredictable aurora seems unable to illuminate them!
There was a soldier in black crouching on the driver's seat like a bow. He didn't step on the brake pedal until he was very close. The wonderful drifting arc stirred up large swaths of ice and snow. The snowmobile was as if it had been measured by a ruler, and it was right. Sitting neatly among dozens of snowmobiles, the riding skills are obviously extremely superb!
A dragon-flying phoenix-shaped emblem with the word "Darkness" appears on the right arm of the black-clothed soldier, faintly as scarlet as blood!
She was dressed in black, took off her goggles, and hung her helmet on the car. She had short ear-length hair that was as sharp as a knife. She was actually a woman, but her entire face was still wrapped in a black scarf, leaving only a pair of cold eyes. outside!
Several black-clothed soldiers nearby seemed to be very familiar with the masked woman, and they nodded in greeting. One of the men even strode forward to greet her. He was obviously very excited, but in front of the masked woman, he seemed to be He was a little cautious and didn't even utter a single word for a while.
The team number of several black-clothed soldiers is "Xin You". Although the worst among them is also a four-star master, their overall strength is still at the bottom of the entire "ANBU", so they are arranged to guard the commander. Although this masked woman is similar in age to them, she is already the deputy captain of the "Gengshen Team". The "Gengshen Team" she belongs to is currently patrolling fifty kilometers away, but for some reason she rushed here. …
Regarding these, the masked woman just nodded and seemed to have no time to pay any attention to it. She walked directly to the camp door and raised her voice:
"Sir! Geng Shen No. 2 report!"
"Enter!"
In the howling wind and snow, a masked woman walked in. After a standard military salute, two cold eyes fell directly on the faces of the people in the tent. They seemed to have some determination, but strangely did not say a word. language……
The officer who was sitting cross-legged according to the case did not pay attention immediately. There was no indication of what was in his mind on his calm face. She took out a simple tea set and actually started making tea...
There was silence in the tent for a while, and soon there was the sound of boiling water. The officer looked at the steam coming out of the pot, but waited quietly for a long time, and then stopped the Flame Breathing Formation and put a Place the small tea bag into the cup.
The boiling water from the plateau, which is less than 90 degrees Celsius, is poured down, and the aroma of the black tea is also less flavorful. However, this is the normal situation in the frozen soil of the north. A pair of pure hands holds the tea cup, leaning on the table with both elbows. This person The officer frowned, seeming slightly helpless. Without tasting it, she looked up through the mist and said in a deep voice:
"Gengshen No. 2!"
"Here!" The masked woman's cold eyes were always on the officer, but now she became more serious!
"Is there any military service?"
"Report sir! There is no military service!"
"If you don't have military duties, you are leaving your post without permission! The lightest form is confinement; the most severe form is expulsion! Do you understand the ANBU military regulations?"
"Report sir! I understand!"
"Now that you understand, why don't you go back?"
The masked woman didn't answer, but her feet seemed to have taken root on the ground, and her eyes were full of stubbornness!
The tent became quiet again, and behind the steaming heat, the officer seemed to sigh again, and finally said:
"Where is Team Gengshen now?"
"Reporting to the commander! About fifteen degrees west by north, fifty kilometers away!"
"He's actually at the Banmenbao Military Station? This He Tao!"
"Report to the commander! The change of patrol direction is my suggestion! It has nothing to do with Gengshen No. 1!"
"So you saw him, huh?"
"Report sir! Yes!"
The officer's gaze suddenly darkened, as if the entire night sky was covering the masked woman!
"Xiaoxue..."
"arrive!"
"...There is no one else here, please call me Sister Qiu'er..."
"Yes! Sister Qiu'er..."
"It's been more than a year, haven't you figured it out yet?"
"I understand... I didn't lose to him, but to the greed in my heart!"
"Anymore?"
"If it hadn't been for that defeat, I wouldn't have been able to escape from greed, and it would be even less possible for me to achieve the current level of Seven Star Master..."
"Then why are you still doing this?"
"Sister Qiu'er... I just want him to know... that my magic is not that bad! My determination is not any worse than his!"
"After all, you're still not reconciled..."
"Yes!"
"But Xiaoxue, even if I allow you to participate in the war, there are no places left now!"
"Sister Qiu'er... there is a fighting master named He in the Thunder Killing Legion... and he is in the Bauhinia Legion..."
"This must be He Tao's idea again, right?"
"Um……"
"Xiaoxue, even if you can participate in the war, it will be difficult to meet him..."
"Sister Qiu'er! At least I have a chance to meet him!"
"...Okay! There is a precedent for ANBU members to participate in legion competitions. According to the rules, you have to take off your armband and let me keep it for now!"
"yes……"
The masked woman was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then strode forward and solemnly placed the scarlet armband on the table!
The officer's face looked a little better now. He waved his finger on the side of the teacup lightly and said:
"Go ahead and return to the team as soon as the competition is over!"
"Yes! Thank you sir!"
…
When the masked woman walked out of the camp, several black-clothed soldiers noticed something strange. They looked at each other a few times, and the same man from before came forward to greet him. The goggle helmet that seemed to have a fragrant residue was on He hesitated in his palm, but did not hand it to the masked woman's hand...
Without the armband, you lose your ANBU identity, and you automatically lose the authority to use the magic snowmobile...
"Xiaoxue..." The man in black didn't ask anything. He would support any decision of the person in front of him without reservation. It was a rare meeting and he just wanted to see her a few more times...
There seemed to be some fluctuations in the cold eyes, which soon disappeared. They stood side by side at the top of the snow slope, looking at the increasingly bustling metal round platform below, as if they were looking for a certain face...
One is searching, the other is searching for her...
After a moment, the masked woman took a deep breath and whispered:
"Zhuiyun, I'm going over."
"Well, come on!"
…
The metal round platform was buzzing with people, but it was faintly divided into eight whirlpools of people. In the center of the whirlpool, there were naturally twenty magical creatures that had never been seen before!
Under the leadership of eight teams of technicians from the Langjuxu Military Station, all participating soldiers have put on a set of strange tight-fitting corsets. Except for the head and face, all parts fit the skin very well and are almost the same size. It fits well and seems to have been tailor-made for the participating fighters.
The twenty new war puppets are also tall, short, fat and thin, and can be divided into male and female forms. However, there are no traditional bearing structures and hydraulic lines in any joints, only a layer of metal with obvious streamlines. The shell, and the obviously concave and convex "muscle mass" shape on the shell!
In addition to a pair of "eyes" made of transparent chips and a stiff but similar metal "face", these new war puppets are obviously closer to the human form than traditional war puppets!
And when the technicians manipulated the crystal plates in their hands and the entire body of the war puppet suddenly burst open, all the participating warriors finally understood the use of this new type of war puppet!
It actually requires the users to be embedded in it, as if they were wearing a fully-covered magic armor!
Used in this way, it can be regarded as a veritable "war puppet drive"!
It’s just that all participating warriors have already experienced the traditional forms of “war puppet command” and “war puppet driving” training. They all know exactly what kind of condensed mental control is needed to make a heavy metal body move or even fight!
Even if this new type of war puppet is hollow inside, the requirement for mental strength is only reduced by a fraction at most. How can it be applied on a real battlefield? ! How can it be worthy of the word "new type"? !
This young master of magic creation obviously has more doubts!
Although it was inconvenient to use Liu Yuan, he had already discovered that the flexible lining inside the war puppet was made of the same material as the clothes on his body! There is probably a layer of air bags inside the lining. After the bellows is closed, the air bags should inflate like a "blood pressure meter", making the lining and clothing fit more closely!
And in the cracked gap in the body of the war puppet, he had already seen the layer of sheet-like colloid with varying thicknesses, and the faintly visible strands looked as dense and orderly as real muscles!
However, the technicians around them smiled and did not answer. They just urged each participating fighter to "embed" into the war puppet, closed each person's limbs and torso one by one, and seriously asked how well the war puppet matched the internal limbs. Sure enough, It is calibrated through internal air bags. If there is a big difference, it will be replaced on the spot. This is true for the left and right chest and abdomen, shoulder blades, waist and ribs, arms, legs and feet, fingers and toes, etc.!
The main connections of all replaceable parts all adopt the dual structure of magnetic rings and bolts. The specifications and shapes are also the same, and the versatility is excellent!
These painstaking and meticulous work took a whole morning. Each participating fighter was accompanied by at least two technicians full-time. After lunch, the real control trial was announced to begin!
There is a special formation engraved on the inside of the new war puppet's visor, but it is the only place where users need to infuse their own energy and expend their spiritual power at the same time!
However, in addition to the two independent commands of "start" and "stop", the function of this formation is to verify the identity of the user through the elemental force characteristics. The remaining function is only to report the operation of each part of the entire battle puppet in real time. Status and displayed in an optional corner of the chip binoculars!
All the participating warriors suddenly discovered that this new type of war puppet, which weighed one ton, did not feel heavy at all! In some movements, he is even more agile and lighter than his own body!
After several hours of adjustments, this new war puppet seems to have completed all preparations. It only needs to activate the formation on the inside of the visor to be put into use!
As for mental control, even if you can only reach the passing standard of just five minutes in the traditional "War Puppet Driving" training subject, you can drive that formation for at least a day and a night!
What's more, the combat status does not actually need to be mastered all the time, but the mental power that cannot be quantified by data is the same as the energy in the body, and can be recovered slowly most of the time!
And of course this young master of magic has discovered more mysteries, and has a deeper understanding of this new type of war puppet!
It turns out that this strange material of clothing is actually a crucial layer of media! Every subtle change in the main muscle groups of the body will be transmitted through this piece of clothing, and then should be converted into a series of data signals on the tightly fitting lining back!
These data signals must be transmitted using the power of the thunder system, so they can far exceed the "millisecond" level neural response speed of the master cultivators!
The heavily reinforced black box at the back of the war puppet's head must be the "central sub-array" of the entire war puppet! Thousands of data models may have been stored in it, so that human body activities can be matched so accurately!
And it is the layer of sheet-like "muscles" of varying thicknesses that perfectly manifests these activities! After examining with a few strands of black and white energy, he suddenly discovered that each of those dense "muscle filaments" had formations engraved on the surface!
Those formations are completely similar and extremely simple. They just control the contraction or relaxation of each "muscle filament"! But the degree of contraction and relaxation is controlled by different signals output by the black box!
Under the linkage of countless "muscles", hundreds of "muscles", and bearing joints that are tightly adhered to the "muscles", the heavy metal body can be so light as a feather!
And on the hands, feet, knees, elbows... and many parts of the body where the energy is often released, the path for the transmission of the energy has already been engraved inside this new type of war puppet!
Although there are no "transmission amplification" and "matched filtering" circuits inside the wand, it is still thick enough! The transmission of Yuanli is smooth enough! Practitioners of all systems will be able to adapt quickly!
What made him admire the most was the "tightness" of the entire new war puppet!
After careful perception, he could confirm that "sealing performance" is the highest priority principle of the entire new war puppet!
There is a whole row of chamfered metal mortises and tenons above each inlay gap. After inlaying, they are further rotated and engaged to make all closures tighter!
The inside of the gap is engraved with a whole row of light attribute formations that have not been used yet. They are exactly the same as the ventilation holes under the nose of the visor. I think that when you really face the monster, these formations will shine, and they will be able to maximize the effect of the light attribute. Users resist evil energy!
With this design, this new type of combat puppet truly has the capital to be put into actual combat!
As a magic maker of the War Court Legion, "Li" and "He" actually have ideas on how to resist the evil energy, but to be honest, these ideas are all about improving the material of a single magic tool or forming a formation. In terms of method improvement, it has unknowingly deviated from the "battle" itself!
The designers of the new war puppets have always insisted on this, and then they have made various improvements based on magic engineering!
"Thinking" is certainly very important in the science of magic creation, but here, in the north, principles are more important! It's the purpose! This is an anti-demon stance that should never change!
Not all ideas can be put into action without scruples. The cold "departure" may not understand, but "he" must be vigilant!
The "Sponge Master" of the Snow Wolf Legion is indeed powerful!
He looked around and saw that all the comrades in the Bauhinia Legion were racing against time to familiarize themselves with the war puppets. Even Zijin Mo was no exception. Many of them had already gone further to try to fight!
The eight technician teams are still paying close attention to the war puppets they are responsible for, recording some data on the crystal board from time to time. During the entire legion competition, these technicians will follow them throughout the whole process!
Just when he was about to find an open space to practice, he was tapped on the shoulder.
He saw a petite female war puppet leaning towards him. The person controlling it was a man. His slightly high-pitched voice and a pair of big eyes behind the chip made him look very charming. Obscene...
"Hehe, is this new type of war puppet okay?"
"Very good!" he replied:
“The sealing performance is very good!”
"Huh? Did you notice this?" The man immediately became proud, and he looked very happy!
"Haha! As expected of Master Lin! Well-deserved of his reputation!"
"You know me?"
"Of course! Are you the leader of the Ross Point Military Station? If it weren't for your alloy formula, I'm afraid the entire northern frozen land wouldn't be able to produce these one hundred and sixty new war puppets!"
"oh……"
"But to be honest, it's too wasteful to use alloys for everything! The quality of the steel here is very average! Why isn't your 'Thunder Furnace' finalized yet? Why don't you give me one first!"
"Uh... it should be almost done, after this competition..."
"Then we decided happily! Haha!"
The man winked at the technicians around him proudly, then came closer, scratched his chin with his little metal hand, and asked eagerly:
"Master Lin, do you have any questions? Just ask!"
"Oh, how long did it take to build the database in the central sub-array? There are so many kinds of exercise modes, and they vary from person to person. It is very time-consuming to accumulate data, right?"
"This is a sharp question!" The man put his hands on his hips and seemed a little annoyed:
"After answering this question, won't all my money be empty? Can we still be friends?"
"Uh...sorry..."
The man slapped him hard on the shoulder and laughed loudly:
"Haha! Of course I'm joking!"
The man continued:
"Of course the traditional database format won't work! I don't have that patience! Most of this new type of war puppet is based on a new data modeling method! I call this method a 'neural network'!"
"Neural Networks?"
"Yes! I found that even animals with low intelligence have hundreds of millions of neurons in their brains! There are even more in the human brain! And each neuron is connected to hundreds of similar species. This is an extremely huge A distributed data processing structure! It is more than enough to store all our memories in it! I even suspect that our consciousness and our souls are born from this structure! By the way, the Gallo City State once obtained something on the black market. A disgusting piece of meat! Like some kind of artificial brain! Have you heard of it?"
"Um……"
"You know? That's easy to handle! I seriously doubt that it is some mature application of the 'neural network' algorithm! Because in this war puppet's 'neural network', the initial number of neurons...that is, those muscles The number of wires is only a few hundred thousand, and the interconnection structure only has ten layers, which is enough to store all the movement patterns of the human body! As long as the accuracy of the collection points of the body data is not so skewed, everything collected will be valid. Data! As long as someone drives this kind of war puppet, a steady stream of data will enter the 'neural network'. Without too long of 'training', the 'neural network' can basically match almost all basic movements!"
The man laughed "hehe" a few times and asked:
"Master Lin, do you know the most powerful thing about this 'neural network' algorithm?"
"have no idea……"
"It just varies from person to person! Maybe at the beginning, many of the movements of this war puppet are still different from your own, but after a period of learning and training, this deviation will become smaller and smaller, and it will be more consistent with the same user. It will eventually reach a certain limit!”
"Look!" This man pointed at the contestants who were immersed in it, then pointed at himself, then walked around him for a few steps, and said proudly:
"Are we more handsome than we were a few minutes ago? I can feel the wind even if I take two steps!"
"Um……"
The man wanted to continue, but two technicians hurried over and whispered something in his ear. The man said angrily:
"What? Changes in the personnel of the Thunder Slayer Corps?! Do you think labor and management are idle?! Just use that war puppet!"
However, the technician muttered a few more words, and the man immediately turned from anger to joy. He waved to him casually and left without looking back. He only heard the man shouting all the way:
"It turns out to be a young and beautiful lady! You told me earlier! We have nothing else here, and there is definitely no shortage of female war puppets! You! And you! Go to my formation room and move all my collections come over!"
