Chapter 209: Chapters 204, 205: Building Mecha (Subscribe for Double Update)_2

“Join us, and together we will offer to the Ora True God!”

Pan Feng asked, “So how do we offer to the Ora True God? Do we pray?”

“No, the Ora True God does not require prayers,” the man said, “It only requires offerings! It can consume endless energy, increasing its divine power!”

“So what we need to do is to throw food and energy into the sea! Offer them to the Ora True God! Oil is its drink, nuclear fuel its snack, and we are its most loyal followers!”

Hearing his words, Pan Feng and his companions were startled.

*Offering food and energy, even nuclear fuel, if this isn’t the Zerg, then what is it?*

Looking at these people again, they all seemed to be possessed.

Pan Feng quickly said, “We’ll go back and contribute all the food from home to the Ora True God.”

“Good, the Ora True God will protect you!” the man said.

Pan Feng and his companions withdrew to the side and sent a message to headquarters.

“There are big problems with the Ora Association. We suspect that they may be under the mind control of the Zerg. Recently, they have been very active. A month ago, the Ora Association bought an entire ship of oil and poured it into the sea.”

“Recently, they seem to be targeting nuclear fuel, and the Western Alliance seems unable to control this situation.”

“Received, continue to investigate,” headquarters replied, “The signal jamming device has been sent. All members should be on guard.”

Xuanwu Executive Officers had long proposed within the Blue Star Alliance that the Zerg had the ability to influence human thought processes and had sold signal detection and jamming devices to the public.

Preparations were made everywhere, but the results were not ideal.

It was heard that in some places people were very resistant to such devices and refused mental checks. They believed it was a conspiracy, and the devices issued to them were destroyed or discarded by them.

Local authorities once explicitly banned Ora Association parades, but each time they failed to enforce the ban due to various reasons. They suspected that some high-ranking officials were also members of the Ora Association.

“We must find out how many people the Ora Association has influenced,” Pan Feng whispered, “If they really get nuclear energy and let the Zerg absorb and evolve, the Atlantic might see Zerg even more terrifying than the Pacific’s Deep Sea Giant Beasts!”

…

Kangaroo Island, one of the branches of the Noah Science Society, was hosting a global conference.

The meeting’s host, and also the vice president of the Noah Science Society, female scientist Belinda, was speaking.

“Dear members, our research shows that humans are absolutely no match for the Zerg. In the Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic Ocean, and Tianzhu Ocean, underwater Zerg nests have been found, numbering over a hundred!”

“On the Catastrophe Island in the Pacific, land Zerg nests have even appeared! They can absorb geothermal energy and evolve rapidly! Even the carrier fleet of Bai ying could not defeat a single Zerg nest!”

“Zerg occupying Blue Star is only a matter of time! For humanity to survive, we must leave Blue Star and venture into the broader universe.”

“That’s why we have united today, as the world’s most elite scientists, with the support of the world!”

“At a time like this, everyone should not hold back!”

“So, our first step is to research rockets and spacecraft, establish a base on the Moon, then colonize Mars! Reaching other planets in the Solar System is humanity’s future!”

“Clap clap clap…” Everyone applauded. They were the top scientists in the world, and most of them shared the same idea.

The Blue Star Alliance was nothing they pinned their hopes on; emigrating to other planets was their goal!

“We first need to conquer the technology of reusable heavy-lift rockets so that we can send more mass into space. Now, please let the technical representatives from the Western space agency, Russia Aerospace Bureau, White Eagle Aerospace Bureau, Sakura Aerospace Agency… and companies like Space Exploration Technologies Corp, Blue Origin Company, Boeing Company, Airbus Company, and others speak in turn…”

Everyone present was full of confidence. They assembled the world’s most advanced technology and had massive resource support. Leaving Earth was just a matter of time!

Among this scientific society, there were also scientists from Shen Zhou.

Their goal was not to build some Noah’s Ark spacecraft but to clarify what the Noah Science Society was really up to.

At the end of the meeting, a representative quietly sent a message via Sky Net satellite.

This quantum communication network greatly facilitated their work because other countries had yet to master the technology of breaking billion quantum communications or establishing a global quantum communications network, making it hard to detect intelligence transmissions.

“Today the Noah Science Society held a space technology meeting, inviting aerospace agencies and tech companies from dozens of countries to discuss plans for first developing heavy-lift reusable rockets…”

“The president of the Noah Science Society still did not show up; everything was hosted by Vice President Belinda, and I am still observing further—Zu Chongzhi.”

Zu Chongzhi was his code name. Besides him, there were other members of the Xuanwu Plan in the Noah Science Society, each with a code name.

…

The various disturbances outside did not bother He Xingzhou.

In his mecha research laboratory, Lu Mi was performing a three-dimensional simulation of the mecha structure.

In front of He Xingzhou appeared the different parts of the mecha, the main torso, mechanical arms and legs, engines, energy devices, load backpack, and so on.

He Xingzhou used his hand to manipulate the images, modifying and assembling them.

These virtual parts were assembled by him one by one, and then, a computer-simulated mecha model appeared!

This was a five-meter tall light mecha, entirely encased in a metal shell. The nuclear battery was in the back, along with a temporary battery.

The power system included conventional mechanical power and jet particle propulsion, allowing it to walk on land and fly short distances.

The weapon system was not yet equipped. He Xingzhou planned to design an electromagnetic gun, laser transmitter, and electromagnetic pulse weapon.

This way, as long as the mecha had adequate nuclear battery energy, it could maintain continual attack without needing additional ammunition or shells.

Regarding the control system, He Xingzhou loaded the control panel into Lu Mi’s system, allowing Lu Mi to control the mecha.

Theoretically, if this mecha were manufactured, it could certainly handle a level five black armored insect without issue.

As for its size, He Xingzhou was unable to reduce it further. This was already the smallest size he could achieve. Further reduction to the level of personal armor required breakthroughs in nanometer technology.

“Is this the mecha you designed? It’s so cool!” Xu Zhilan walked over with her long legs, looking at the holographic projection, her face brimming with excitement.

“If it were real, I’d want to try it right away!” Xu Zhilan, being from a special operations background, had a definite passion for weapons and equipment.

The Universal Mechanical Exoskeleton He Xingzhou designed earlier, she had been the first to try out, and now she had become proficient in operating mechanical exoskeletons.

“It can be built soon!” He Xingzhou said with a smile, “I’ve already had people producing related materials and components. Now we only lack a crucial nuclear battery and jet particle engine.”

“Is it the simulation stage now?” Xu Zhilan asked.

“Yes.” He Xingzhou nodded as he modified the mecha’s appearance. The general structure could not change, just some small details to make it look more imposing, like color customization and so on.

He Xingzhou tried several colors and thought they all looked good.

He asked Xu Zhilan, “Sister Zhilan, what color do you like?”

“Me?” Xu Zhilan was a bit surprised and said, “I prefer a slightly reddish color.”

He Xingzhou thought for a moment and said, “Then we’ll use a reddish-brown coating. The Catastrophe Island we’re going to this time has volcanic rocks that are also reddish-brown, so a reddish-brown coating will be more conducive to hiding.”

“Yes yes!” Xu Zhilan looked at him with a bright smile. Having the mecha in her favorite color felt oddly delightful to her.
