Chapter 125 The Great Mechanic - Castellon's Shock
This is where Chen Jinglong feels tricky, no one will deny him passage.
But he is not sure whether Li Ming has this ability. Even though Li Ming has amazing development potential, he is the last bottom line of Polytechnic University.
Polytechnic University was not established for Li Ming alone.
“Why don’t you focus on developing gene seeds?” Chen Jinglong looked helpless.
"There is no conflict between the two. I developed it until I was exhausted before I started thinking about mechas." Li Ming explained.
Chen Jinglong suddenly remembered a key question, his eyes were sharp, "How far is your development progress?"
"35%" Li Ming told him frankly.
Li Ming could clearly see that the dean's expression froze for a moment. Where he couldn't see, Chen Jinglong's hands behind his back were clenched and released.
After a long silence, he said: "I have no research on mechanics. I will take you to Professor Xia for evaluation first."
"No problem." Li Ming packed up the metal box and followed Chen Jinglong to Xia Yuanlun's mechanical laboratory.
After arriving, when he got off the car, Li Ming found that there were several hover cars parked here, and they were all "embassy" vehicles and seemed to be visitors.
"The car from the Aishan Civilization Embassy is here. Xia Yuanlun's old friend is here." Chen Jinglong seemed to have thought about it.
"Here..." Ding Hui panted, trotting all the way over, his head covered with dust, and there were dry black marks on both sides of his temples, which were formed by the condensation of sweat and dust.
"Brother Ding, why are you so miserable?" Li Ming was quite surprised.
"Forget it, the teacher has been in a bad mood these past two days." Ding Hui said hello to Chen Jinglong with a gloomy look on his face, and then explained to Li Ming: "Your Excellency Castellon is here."
"It is indeed him, the great mechanic - Castron." Chen Jinglong was not surprised.
"Great Mechanic?" Li Ming was surprised and then asked.
"The so-called Great Mechanic is just a relatively general title. There is no clear standard. Anyone who can build A-level weapons or participate in the design and manufacture of star-killing weapons can get one." Ding Hui explained. .
"Forging A-level weapons, he should be very powerful." Li Ming thought thoughtfully: "Did you come to Professor Xia to exchange and learn?"
"What kind of exchange learning." Ding Hui smiled bitterly, "The teacher once studied at the Itlan Huangzhong Mechanical College when he was young. He and Castellon were classmates, and they were very competitive at one time."
"Later, the teacher After returning to Blue Star, Castellon stayed there to continue his studies and became more and more powerful, often humiliating the teacher."
Li Ming was surprised, "This Castellon came here specifically to belittle Professor Xia. ?”
“There is one of their classmates in the Yitlan investigation team. Castellon should be here to wait,” Chen Jinglong explained.
"Oh." Li Ming suddenly realized, and then heard Ding Hui continue: "His Majesty Castellon's mouth is really poisonous. We have been humiliated by him one by one in the past two days, and we are almost depressed."
"It sounds quite miserable." Li Ming grinned.
"This way..." Ding Hui led the way: "Teacher has been trying to avoid Castellon these two days."
Soon we arrived at Xia Yuanlun's office. Li Ming came once, and Ding Hui Knock on the door and let them both in.
Li Ming was half a step behind. As soon as Chen Jinglong stepped in, he heard Xia Yuanlun's gnashing of teeth: "What are you doing here again? I've already given you ten mother ores, and there's no need for one more." !”
Huh? Did those ten mother minerals come from Professor Xia?
No wonder I agreed so decisively and didn’t feel bad co-authoring something that wasn’t my own.
Li Ming paused, and Xia Yuanlun realized that Li Ming was following him, and his gnashing of teeth suddenly stopped.
It can be seen that Professor Xia has been really depressed these past two days.
"Professor." Li Ming greeted.
Chen Jinglong didn’t look embarrassed, he sat down and said calmly: “I came to you because of him.”
"Li Ming..." Professor Xia rubbed his temples: "If you have any questions, just come to me yourself. There is no need to call him over."
"This matter is different. He wants to apply for one." Small laboratory." Chen Jinglong said.
"Apply for a small laboratory?" Professor Xia was also a little stunned, but then waved his hand with a tired look on his face: "Apply. When the professor committee is convened, I will vote in favor."
Chen Jinglong frowned, "The application materials he took out need your help to review them,"
"I will review them?" Professor Xia didn't know why.
Then Chen Jinglong waved his hand, and the alloy box Li Ming was carrying opened from the center. The Tanwei mecha hanging on the support column instantly attracted Xia Yuanlun's attention.
He hurried over and stroked the alloy surface with his palms, as if he was seeing a peerless beauty.
"This..." Xia Yuanlun was not an expert in this field, and he could see the key point in just a few minutes.
"This... you built this, right? This is the heavy armor you told me before? How did it become a mecha?" Xia Yuanlun looked at Li Ming excitedly.
Chen Jinglong frowned slightly, could you tell at a glance? Are these two guys acting?
"How can you directly confirm that this was made by Li Ming?" Chen Jinglong asked.
"Such a regular forging process, apart from Li Ming's style, I have only seen on the assembly line." !”
“That’s right, that’s right…” Xia Yuanlun was in a high mood, as if he suddenly thought of something, he closed the metal box, dragged Li Ming and walked out.
"Come, follow me, damn Castellon, I won't scare you to death this time!" He murmured, his old face turning red.
Chen Jinglong’s eyes flashed and he followed.
Before arriving at the large factory, Li Ming heard a sharp and harsh sound coming from faintly.
“Is this how that idiot Xia Yuanlun left it to you?”
“With your level, you might as well bring over a few forging robots.”
“It’s still there. Use the traditional method of stamping and forging!”
Listening to the sound, Xia Yuanlun’s face became darker and darker.
With a bang, the door was pushed open suddenly, and the hot temperature rushed into the face. Cheng Tienan, Ding Hui and other familiar faces were there.
Except for Cheng Tienan, none of them looked very good-looking.
"Oh, Xia Yuanlun, I thought you had really turned into a coward and didn't dare to show your face."
Who is talking?
Li Ming was stunned for a moment, then looked down, his expression became extremely exciting.
I saw a short red man walking out from behind the workbench not far away. He had thick arms and thick red beards on both sides of his cheeks. He looked very stocky and stared angrily.
Dwarf?
“That kid, what’s your look?” Castellon said unceremoniously: “You humans just like racial discrimination!”
“Uh, sir, this stereotype seems to be racial as well. Discrimination?" Li Ming hesitated.
"Hmph, the people under Xia Yuanlun really only know how to argue." Castellon obviously had deep resentment towards Professor Xia. "Castellon, I told you three days ago that you are not welcome here. Why are you still staying here shamelessly?" Xia Yuanlun said coldly.
"I just like staying here." Castellon sneered, looking at the metal box Xia Yuanlun was carrying, and he seemed to find something through the gap.
Then he grinned, and in a flash, he snatched the metal box from Xia Yuanlun's hand.
At such a fast speed, Li Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what level of life form this guy was.
"Castellon!" Xia Yuanlun's expression changed drastically.
But Castron, as if he had discovered some secret, immediately opened it, and the Tanwei mecha appeared in front of everyone.
"Haha..." Castellon lowered his head and scanned it, touched it again, raised his brows lightly, and then laughed:
"Xia Yuanlun, Xia Yuanlun, I thought you were yours for so many years The technology just stayed where it was. I didn’t expect it to have regressed so much.”
“Did you build this mecha?” he asked.
Xia Yuanlun frowned: "So what?"
"It's a shame that I came here to humiliate you. It seems that you are not even worthy of being humiliated by me. Look at this forging process, it has no soul."
"As a heavy-duty mecha, it even has an energy engine. There are none, neither ammunition bays nor energy weapons. The intelligence is too low, too low!"
"There are also these useless edges and complicated patterns, tsk tsk...for pure defense. Right? ”
“It’s already the standard for C-level mechas. What’s the use of pure defense? What about the ability release port? This is the cage you built for yourself, for fear that others will win. ”< br>
“The shock-absorbing system is quite average, the hydraulic transmission has no features, and it doesn’t even have a magnetic shaft? What about the temperature control system? What about the air filtration system? There is no difference at all from what comes off the assembly line.”< br>
"Wrong, it's not even as good as the rags from the assembly line!"
Castellon cursed, and Li Ming touched his nose. He really didn't see so many shortcomings.
This thing directly uses his physical strength and upgrades all the way, so of course no energy engine is needed.
Others were shaped by the control system, and he didn't pay much attention to them. He mainly focused on defense.
As for the ability release port, he can use the characteristics of the sword-wing knight to attach his elemental abilities to the mecha, which is not necessary.
"Of course, the only advantage is the fusion technology of mother ore and alloy materials." Castellon did not belittle it blindly. He mentioned an advantage at least and said casually: "The hardness of this alloy is quite eye-catching."
In fact, Castellon was quite surprised, because he had never seen this kind of fusion technology, and it almost perfectly matched its own alloy material.
It makes the mother ore give full play to its characteristics and raises the overall defense to a higher level again, which is very strange.
Of course he couldn't praise him, but after scolding him, when he looked up, he found Xia Yuanlun grinning with his mouth wide open.
"Are you being called crazy by me?" He frowned.
Xia Yuanlun sneered: "Barely eye-catching? The fusion rate of the heavy earth mother ore and its alloy materials is probably not less than 95%. In your eyes, it is only slightly eye-catching?"
Castelon curled his lips, "It's still It's a bit interesting, but if you don't even have this level, it's not worth me coming over to scold you."
"No matter how high the fusion rate is, it can't cover up the rest of this mecha. Weakness, you have regressed too much."
Although he said this, he knew in his heart that it was most likely Xia Yuanlun's test product. If this fusion rate could be maintained for other weapons.
I am afraid its level will climb to a big level.
"If I really made it, you are right to belittle it." Xia Yuanlun said leisurely.
Castellon was stunned when he heard this, "What do you mean it was really made by you?"
"Castellon tells you the truth, I didn't make this mecha, it was Him." Xia Yuanlun pointed at Li Ming.
"Him?" Castellon turned to look at the silent Li Ming and sneered: "How old is he?"
"Probably nineteen," Xia Yuanlun said.
"This is impossible!" Castellon was determined, and then sneered: "Have you been forced to this extent by me?"
"Find a young man to come and fool me?"
If This mecha was built by Xia Yuanlun, so he was full of flaws. After all, he was also a high-level talent who had studied at Huangzhong Mechanical College. Xia Yuanlun was quite talented.
Although not as good as him.
But if this mecha was built by this young man, it would be completely different.
As he finished speaking, he saw Ding Hui and Cheng Tienan running over in a hurry, staring at the Tanwei mecha carefully and muttering for a while.
"There are almost no traces of handwork. It really looks like Li Ming's technique." Ding Hui couldn't help being surprised.
"Well, if it's not an assembly line product, it was made by Li Ming." Cheng Tienan's tone became more determined.
"A group formed to deceive me?" Castellon still didn't believe it, so Ding Hui explained: "It's really him. The pair of gloves you criticized before was left by him."
< br>"Huh? He is Li Ming? The talented boy you mentioned." Castron was suspicious. In the past two days, he had heard Ding Hui mention that this guy named Li Ming had a high sensitivity to materials.
He was a little scornful at first. How could he be taller than a dwarf?
But the fusion of mother ore and alloy has indeed reached an exaggerated level.
This matter is actually not difficult to verify. The worst is to ask him to create another one. If Xia Yuanlun uses this method to frame him, it will indeed not be on the table and it will be meaningless.
On the contrary, it will lead to even more fierce ridicule from him.
So...
Castellon's expression changed slightly and he looked at Li Ming. He could make a C-class mecha at the age of nineteen. Although he had many shortcomings, with a little training, he would definitely be a great mechanic in the future.
Do humans have this kind of talent?
There is also the mother-ore fusion technology. Even with its material sensitivity, it is difficult to achieve such a high level of assistance in forging the optical brain.
In the interstellar age, most of the hard work and repetitive processes can be replaced by machines or assisted by intelligent means.
But that last bit of perfection and spirituality cannot be replaced.
Even hundreds of millions of simulations through intelligent systems are not as good as a sudden inspiration.
“With a little nudge, the child came out.” Xia Yuanlun held his head high and walked slowly: “By the way, I heard that your son was admitted to Huangzhong Mechanical College, I haven’t congratulated you yet. What about you?"
"I also struggled for two or three months, and I made a few mistakes during this period. I didn't really reach this level. I just polished off my shortcomings in other aspects. , and a lot more."
"I suddenly remembered that there is something else." Castellon walked straight past the crowd with an expressionless face.
"Don't leave in a hurry, Li Ming still wants to learn from you." Xia Yuanlun shouted.
When the words fell, Castellon's figure had disappeared into the corridor.
"Ha!"
