It must be said that Frank was a natural-born combat expert.
This was Frank’s first record of using the exoskeleton in actual combat.
His first combat experience already pushed the limits of the entire exoskeleton, and monitoring data clearly showed where the weaknesses of the exoskeleton were.
The entire exoskeleton focused mainly on three aspects: energy, the biocompatibility of the implanted parts, and software.
The Tactical Walker Type 2 exoskeleton used materials provided courtesy of Dr. Otto and Dr. Tums—the laboratory-grade materials.
High-strength alloys, carbon fiber composite materials, high-performance plastics, advanced ceramics...
These materials were ant to be used in their respective groundbreaking machines, expensive and difficult to finalize.
Compared with the bioplastics and various tals that were common in the Cyberpunk World, they highlighted a high-end and expensive edge.
Their advantage was in their extraordinary strength, but they had poor biocompatibility, still not up to the various prosthetics materials used in Cyberpunk World.
In intense combat, the body would endure high acceleration, causing so organs to shift and press against the components, leading to inflammation and exacerbating the body’s rejection response.
Currently, the only solution to this issue was to rely on the biological filters and cell adapters similar to those used by Lille and Jack, with systematic injections of chlorobilin immunosuppressants extracted from lizardized organs.
Next was the software.
Unlike in the Cyberpunk World, where Lille would simply use the prosthetics off-the-shelf, whether the software was slightly or significantly modified, it was all based on the sa underlying design logic of that world.
But here, everything had to be started from scratch.
Writing software on an existing operating system was one thing, creating an operating system was another; now, the International Gene Cooperation, Ltd., had to go even further and start designing from the basic machine language.
The vastly different hardware foundations and architectures from the Cyberpunk World ant they had to start from scratch and proceed step by step solidly.
Under such conditions, Lille still managed to complete the very first version of "Si Anweisitan."
Accurately, it was just a neural acceleration program that enhanced reflexes through similar neural electrical stimulation while coordinating the motors to accelerate motion speed.
If likened to Si Anweisitan, the Ti Stop Effect might only reach 3% to 7%.
But after all, this was a beginning, and stable operation was a victory.
The exoskeleton was still using batteries, graphene batteries pilfered from Dr. Otto, their advantage being compact units, easier to handle in terms of shape.
These batteries were almost completely affixed on the back of the exoskeleton and had a certain structural strength, originally used inside the Octopus Arm.
The batteries themselves were superior in performance but costly.
And there was a very troubleso issue; when the battery capacity dropped to 10%, the power output would significantly reduce.
Honestly, this performance was quite far from the portrayal of Dr. Otto in various works.
Thinking about it carefully, every interaction Lille had with anything related to the Marvel world seed to fall far short of the original’s incredible levels.
But still, it managed to take a leading ecological position in the Cyberpunk World.
Frank had already carried out five missions, the first one being the rescue of Ghana, and a few more that were more accidental in nature.
While Lille was reviewing battle records over here, V sent a new ssage.
[V: Finished watching... fell asleep while watching it.]
[V: Boring as hell.]
In another world, V ended her Super Dream journey in her own small apartnt.
This was the first ti she had fallen asleep while watching Super Dream.
Lille was adjusting the data for data simulation on the computer while sending ssages.
[Lille: This segnt might indeed be a bit dull, but why are you only replying now?]
V removed her Super Dream, and smirked.
She got up from the bed, walked over to the vending machine, and grabbed a pack of Roll XXL, glancing at the ti on the wall...
She had slept for a full 10 hours!
Turning her head, looking at her empty room, and the completely different scent from Lille’s ho...
She suddenly choked a bit—
The fresh air system whirred, replacing the slls of baked biscuits, tea, and flowers with a mix of oil and plastic.
The warm real wood floor and walls beca tallic walls, even if, for the sake of living experience, Ye’s Company had already replaced these walls with matte yellow textures...
But it was still very cold.
This tiny room had once been her dream space, but now it suddenly seed to be missing sothing.
Suddenly, the image of the woman from Lille’s Super Dream flashed through her mind, feeling a kind of kinship she had never experienced before, intensifying her sense of loneliness in that mont.
She stared blankly at the slightly ssy room, and everything around her suddenly beca quiet.
Only the sound of the vending machine restocking remained.
Click.
"Damn... this feels so weird." V lay back on the bed, struggling to find the words to describe this feeling.
However, as soon as she saw the chat box, that feeling completely dissipated.
She suddenly beca a bit interested in the upcoming Super Dream.
[V: Anything else? Or is that it? Pretty interesting, where did you get it?]
[V: This kind of editing style, isn’t it that... what’s it called? Stream of consciousness?]
[Lille: This is mostly realism, I’ve used so techniques to do it.]
[V: Hmph... using so techniques? Feels like you’re not being honest.]
[Lille: I’ll give you the next batch of discs later. Have you gotten the info on the guy selling the Black Superdream?]
[V: Jimmy Black Cherry, sowhat related to the Vortex Gang, waiting for Brick and his dumbass brothers to confirm a location.]
[V: Wait... they’ve confird it.]
[Lille: Retrieve his cyber psychosis discs from him, don’t sneak a peek yourself, those discs can damage your nerves.]
[V: Do I look like the kind of idiot who watches all kinds of unknown Super Dreams?]
Lille really wanted to jump out of the screen, smack her on the head, and then scream: Why no points, huh?!
[V: What do you an, you’re not going?]
[Lille: I need to stay here and cut the Super Dream for you, you and Jack handle it, or let David get so practice.]
[V: You’re not going?]
[Lille: I’m not going.]
The ssages suddenly stopped for a minute, then a pop-up appeared on the system.
[Notification from another world: Your door has been forcibly opened, V has taken you away.]
[V: You’re going too!]
[You have been taken away by V, if you need to take further action, please invest Technology Points to make complex movents]
Lille:...
Being taken away is being taken away, it’s not exactly a high-risk activity, at worst there are a couple of military drones.
Lille returned to this side, in the lab, Dr. Connors and Michael were fine-tuning Frank’s neural pathways.
The three weaknesses ntioned earlier, software, and the biocompatibility of so implanted parts, were not insurmountable issues.
As market demand gradually picked up, a massive influx of civilian version prosthetics into the market could quickly get on the right track with continuous capital investnt, adjustnts, and iterations.
However, the real problem that was difficult to solve was still the energy issue.
Prosthetics could just be charged, but for a large, high-autonomy organization and entity, energy problems would create many restrictions.
Furthermore, the energy for Vulture Battle Suit and the special proton bullets used by Death Warrior employed a very special high-energy substance—
We must figure out what energy technology the opponent has and surpass them in this regard.
Lille was quite familiar with energy technologies and could definitely et the requirents for long-term endurance and instantaneous power...
A dangerous, yet fascinating power.
He looked up at the sun.
Nuclear power.
[Dr. Otto: Lille, the fuel tank and bullet contents of the Vulture Battle Suit have been analyzed.]
[Lille: I’m coming over now.]
