The competitors here are not weak, they just face harsh realities sotis.
Samson was incredibly strong and, with the addition of special armor plates, beca terrifyingly durable. Its powerful drive system allowed it to wield even mightier weapons, so of which were typically reserved for use with power armor.
But without their vehicles, faced with the terrifically lethal high-explosive armor-piercing bullets, they were just larger targets.
Alpha was well-balanced with strong compatibility—just equip an experienced rcenary with special enhancents, and she could hunt down a gang leader in the city like a super assassin.
However, a slightly wider-reaching, more powerful explosive could limit her movent. Add a sharpshooter with a technical rifle, and it would be enough to penetrate her body.
But things were different for Lille—
What they saw was a super fortress with unprecedented defensive capabilities, exceptional mobility, and chanical qualities surpassing military tanks.
This super fortress, however, wasn’t a gift from any company but a synthesis of all the technologies Lille possessed.
It featured an active defense system based on Yinglong’s intelligent locking system and Eight-star Gun’s intelligent micro-blast bullets;
An electromagnetic locking system and a superior electromagnetic suspension for the entire suit, developed from the Spiderman physiological system simulation;
A solid alloy frawork and armor system derived from the Scorpion Battle Suit’s Chroni Titanium;
A fully electronic control platform built upon the Octopus Arm battery, and modular internal space designed around its chanical structure;
A super dynamic engine created from the Vulture Battle Suit turbine and Thunder Company’s experintal engine;
And the core, the culmination of Hacker technology mixed with a dose of luck—the AI, Legend Mackinaw, the central control Da Mai.
Of course, there were also the three of them: experienced, highly skilled in combat, and superbly coordinated super rcenaries.
Within the vast vehicle body were a dormant power armor, two high-mobility Blast Ride special motorcycles, along with a dazzling array of weapons and equipnt...
This was the kind of special squad all companies dreamt of—small in size, strong in combat, versatile in application.
Even the AI Munemasa, designed to create weapons, had to marvel at this.
Humans have many astonishing traits and inventions, but such impressive creations...
Are rare.
Practical yet full of ingenuity, these detailed designs, paired with three seasoned warriors, brought unimaginable usage thods and remarkable effects.
It had already surpassed its model predictions—
[Munemasa: Creativity... It’s hard to imagine he did this all by himself.]
[Authentic: He definitely didn’t do this alone. Look at those companies, those gangs... who knows how much power he wielded?]
[Munemasa: We lack information, but I can definitely say, those could not have been the work of companies.]
[Munemasa: In this regressive world, people only know how to scavenger from trash bins, childishly piecing things together, and cheering for performance that erges by chance.]
[Munemasa: As for those gangs you ntioned, maybe they have so creativity, but it has nothing to do with craftsmanship.]
Creativity is often used for things unrelated to efficiency.
In Munemasa’s view, ever since humans have locked themselves up, their collective cognitive abilities have been in decline.
People have beco reluctant to learn from the basics, disliking dry numbers and data, opposed to analyzing and summarizing. They prefer to store their data on chips and processors, letting computers handle the calculations—
It sounds similar to their behavior before self-isolation, but the difference is, humans used to encounter problems, analyze them, create tools, and then solve the problems using those tools.
Now, people are more likely to encounter problems, excavate tools, and use them.
For those non-R&D bottom-tier personnel, it’s even more brutal—they know nothing about the equipnt in their hands; they either plunder others or sell themselves out for equipnt to solve their problems.
This, of course, leads to more problems, an endless cycle of issues.
In Munemasa’s view, this undoubtedly amounts to placing one’s life and future in the hands of others, which he cannot comprehend.
[Zhengzong: "Well then... what should we do?"]
Munemasa wasn’t one of those young people eager for fa; what he sought was to technically defeat Lille, naturally he didn’t care about the reputation.
It analyzed through the broadcasted footage from the dia and the caras placed on various prosthetics and equipnt.
Though it aspired for perfection, it knew there was no such thing as perfection.
[Munemasa: "I guess their armor uses a special and sensitive force-dissipation device and a highly efficient AI main control."]
[Munemasa: "The armored plates have a certain range of mobility, adjusted through an electromagnetic locking system and force dissipation; the suspension is likely electromagnetic as well."]
[Munemasa: "With that active defense system, almost no long-range weapon can achieve the ideal impact, the power is only half exerted, or even less."]
[Zhengzong: "AI as in..."]
[Munemasa: "Fugitive AI."]
Anvil-2 could never have hit Legend Mackinaw head-on; if it had, it would only have left a faint black mark. This technology is definitely alien, hardly likely Earth technology.
The fact that the Legend Mackinaw’s chassis was slightly bent also proved that this unknown armor, while superior, had its limits.
That could only an that Anvil-2 didn’t hit directly.
The calculations required for this surface force dissipation were fairly complex, Munemasa didn’t believe that low-level AI models were broad enough to handle all situations.
This AI could only be a dangerous critical entity, just like him, to accomplish all this.
Even if the calculation speed kept up, the chanical control couldn’t possibly have such fast and nimble response, so this dissipation system must be electromagnetic.
He just didn’t know how Lille managed to achieve such an efficient electromagnetic control system, strong and fast-responsive.
Superconducting materials? How superior must the superconducting conditions be?
This material must be an innovative one, just like the body armor.
These were issues he was eager to figure out.
[Zhengzong: "Tsk... should we notify the network surveillance?"]
[Munemasa: "No, I have a way to deal with the armor."]
Munemasa didn’t explain—
Kid, why do you think I’m not trying to hack into those contestants right now? Why reduce the use of hacking technology, or even avoid it altogether? And why hasn’t any grandiose hacker entered the ga so far?
It’s because the most badass hacker, the network surveillance is watching this match.
Even it had to be cautious.
Moreover, what it wanted was a contest of technical equipnt, not another ga of hide and seek on the network.
Munemasa had a guess, regarding why the three on the other side also didn’t use hacker skills: they too harbored a Fugitive AI!
[Munemasa: "In normal tis, these armors are virtually seamless, with the whole body inside a Faraday cage, including the locking system, which is also isolated beneath the armor."]
[Munemasa: "But at the right angle, creating a certain intensity of attack, the armor must move, causing gaps in this Faraday cage."]
[Munemasa: "The gaps must be very small, but a pulse gun can directly disturb electromagnetic equipnt through these gaps, dismantling the electromagnetic locking system."]
[Munemasa: "Once the lock is disabled, armor-piercing weapons will no longer be deflected."]
[Munemasa: "Theoretically, the firepower is sufficient."]
[Zhengzong: "Saint Domingo is cleared, it’s ti to blow up the bridge."]
[Munemasa: "Then let’s start the action."]
