Chapter 239 The first generation of power armor

After getting the accurate information from Zhang Weidao and confirming that they had awakened the priest profession, the goblin technicians ran out in a hurry and went to show off to their compatriots somewhere. "Come back! Are you just going to drop the half-assembled bomb?"

"Okay! It's all done!" Looking at the mess left by these guys, Zhang Weidao could only find other technicians to clean up the mess.

As for those super bombs, they were escorted all the way to Nanhai Town by the goblin technicians who came to pick them up, and were ready to be buried under the low wall.

"This goblin technician who likes to plant bombs is really ruthless! This is the mentality a goblin should have, a heartless guy."

Looking at the explosive maniac escorting the super bomb away with excitement on his face, Zhang Weidao could only sigh that this is a real goblin, and he has no guilt at all for doing bad things.

The super aerostat on the top of the mountain is still laying the skin. It will take ten days and a half to complete it. Now it is just an empty frame, and there is nothing interesting about it for the time being.

It's better to check the progress of the power armor that is already being produced. There should be some finished products already. This is great stuff!

In the forging workshop of the production base, all you can see at first glance are large human-shaped iron lumps. The goblin technicians are holding components of different sizes and are assembling these weapons of war in an intense and orderly manner.

Those components, which weigh as little as a few dozen kilograms and weigh as much as two to three hundred kilograms, have no pressure in front of the mechanical exoskeletons of the goblin technicians.

They hold the heavy components in one hand, hold a welding or multi-function tool in the other hand to fix them in place, and then mark the locations where the caster needs to weld.

The fully assembled power armor will be transported to the caster's room for welding. At the same time, the caster will also remove the burrs and welding slag that need to be trimmed.

It won't be like the mechanical skeletons welded by the goblins themselves, which are full of ugly burrs and welding slag and look like a pile of junk.

How it looks when put together.

After the caster has finished processing the details, the power armor will be shipped to install the power core for the final stage of debugging, and then performance testing can begin.

The performance test of power armor is nothing more than a speed test to check whether there are any problems with flexibility, and then test the pressure-bearing capacity to ensure that it will not crash after receiving a certain amount of impact.

As for power, since the power of power armor is not fixed, but is increased by the driver's own power, plus the power armor's own mechanical output power, it is just a simple test.

At Zhang Weidao's suggestion, Nars integrated a radio receiving device on the power armor and used public channels for unilateral communication.

Therefore, we will also briefly test the signal reception effect. This is also the only electrical performance test of the power armor.

As for those infrared detectors, thermal energy tracking equipment, individual scanning radars, flight components, etc., none of them were installed.

There is currently no way to produce these devices, which require high electronic technology. The flight components can be manufactured, but because the cost is too high, they are not suitable for mass production yet.

The set of power armor that Zhang Weidao planned to give to Sir Lothar did not hesitate to spend expensive materials to create the flying components, and also added a lot of decorations to the surface of the armor.

Sir Lothar's grand marshal's special power armor is extremely gorgeous, with a roaring lion's head on the chest, and it is dyed a dazzling gold.

The surface of the broad shoulder armor is also decorated with bright gold decorations. The right shoulder, like the chest, is a roaring lion's head, and the left shoulder is an eagle with spread wings.

The appearance of this set of power armor is similar to the appearance of the Generalissimo suit in Zhang Weidao's memory, except that the power armor version looks rougher, but Sir Lothar should be quite satisfied.

In the warrior's mind, the thicker the armor, the better. Only in critical moments can one save his life. These guys are obsessed with pursuing the thickness of armor, and they wish they could wear three or four layers of heavy armor on their bodies.

Several times when Zhang Weidao was looking at steam tanks in the forging workshop, he saw those senior soldiers coveting the thick armor plates, probably because they wanted to customize the external armor.

But this kind of behavior is expressly prohibited by Zhang Weidao. He wears it like a modern tank. The whole body is covered with pieces of armor plates, which is cumbersome and ugly. There is no need at all!

Of course, this does not mean that he does not pay attention to protection, but this kind of behavior is really undesirable!

There is really nothing that can be done about modern tanks. The attack power is much higher than the protection power. It is impossible to survive without hanging more things!

In order to survive on the battlefield, all kinds of random things are hung on the body of the vehicle. Just hang some reaction armor plates and the like. Wood, iron barrels, sandbags, turf, whatever you can get, hang on it.

There is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing the tank driver wouldn't want to hang on. Life is the most important thing!

But it's a bit too much to hang it in pieces on the body. The armor plate is easy to fall off during combat. In fact, the effect is not very good at all. It often falls off after a single chop.

When Zhang Weidao was in the wetland, he even cut through the two layers of armor with one sword and tore the orc warrior apart. The protective effect of the two layers of armor was far lower than the thicker layer of armor.

However, thicker armor cannot handle the joint position, and the three-centimeter-thick armor has basically reached its limit.

The armor of gnoll warriors is basically three centimeters thick. The armor of human cavalry is a little thinner, almost the same as that of orc infantry, and is also two centimeters thick.

This is also the mainstream parameter of Azeroth's armor, and there will not be much difference between the stronger races.

These newly released power armors will have a huge impact on the concept of armor forging in Azeroth.

Zhang Weidao stretched out his hand and stroked the golden Generalissimo's power armor. This giant-god-like guy was similar to those tall jackal barbarians, full of a heavy and steady feeling.

With the help of goblin technicians, Zhang Weidao put on this large piece of clothing specially made for Sir Lothar. In the end, he found that his arms were too short and could not be adjusted to hold a weapon.

Sir Lothar, who was over two meters tall, completely crushed him when standing with Zhang Weidao. Although he could not be considered short at just over 1.7 meters, in front of Sir Lothar's size, he was an instant kill.

Originally, the arms of the power armor had some room for adjustment, but if the difference in arm length exceeded ten centimeters, there was no way to do it. In the end, it could only be used to test the flight components.

The flying component of the power armor cannot actually be considered true flight, but a long-distance ejection device.

The jets on its legs generate powerful thrust, allowing it to jump more than two hundred meters high. When falling, it relies on the jets to decelerate, and then falls heavily to the ground.

The part of the impact force that cannot be reduced by the reverse thrust can be absorbed by the buffer device inside the power armor, thereby ensuring the safety of personnel.

After Zhang Weidao learned how to eject and take off, he immediately ran outside to the grass to prepare to experience ejection flight.

The goblin technician just wanted to talk to him about how to maintain balance after ejection and start the jet again to slow down the falling speed, but the guy had already run away.

By the time the goblin technician chased him out, Zhang Weidao had already risen from the ground with a "whoosh" sound.

That cool and unrestrained posture soaring into the sky looked particularly handsome, but the goblin technician had already covered his eyes.
Chapter completed!
