Chapter 487: The Three Elders (two chapters in one)
This day was particularly painful because some gamblers from the Meteor Mecha Company were waiting for Zhou Sen to get off work, because news had spread from the modification shed that Zhou Sen's modified mecha was almost completed.
It's almost completed, which means Zhou Sen is about to enter the Steel Paradise.
Zhou Sen didn't know how impatient the crowd was, because he was still involved in the maintenance and upkeep of those antique mechas as before.
Of course, on this day, Zhou Sen disassembled a Meteor-G13 mecha.
Zhou Sen's idea is very simple. He wants to thoroughly understand this mecha, because the mecha will play a vital role in whether he can win the next challenge.
While Zhou Sen was studying mechas, a group of his subordinates would come over to him with saliva on their faces from time to time and ask him how long he could last, which annoyed him greatly...
…
Finally, it’s time to get off work!
What made everyone depressed was that Zhou Sen did not go to the mecha modification shed immediately after get off work, but went to the restaurant.
Zhou Sen decided to have a good meal and relax.
This time, a group of Zhou Sen's subordinates did not follow because they all went to research and place bets on the company intranet.
The large restaurant of Meteor Mecha Company was as lively as ever.
Zhou Sen took the food and found a quiet corner to sit down.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou." As soon as Zhou Sen sat down, Wu Xiong sat in front of him with food in one hand.
"Okay." Zhou Sen nodded lightly, but he was secretly happy because he had been thinking about how to approach Wu Xiong, but he never expected that the other party would take the initiative to approach him.
"Are you really Zhou Sen, the most powerful gangster in the universe?" Wu Xiong looked around and asked in a low voice. There was excitement in his voice. After all, in front of him was the most famous and powerful gangster in the five star regions.
"You don't want to believe me?" Zhou Sen smiled.
"Ahem...it's not...I...I...I'm afraid...that...Mr. Zhou..." Wu Xiong hesitated for a long time and was speechless.
"It's okay to just say it if you have anything to say!" Zhou Sen said.
"How long can you support it?" Wu Xiong stared at Zhou Sen hopefully.
"How long do you want me to support you?"
"ah……"
"What are the rules for betting?" Zhou Sen asked.
"The shorter the time, the higher the odds. However, this also needs to be linked to the time. For example, if it reaches two hours, the odds will be 40 times."
"In other words, you can place bets in ten minutes, twenty minutes, or half an hour?"
"Yes."
"How long do you think I can support it? It doesn't matter, just tell me." Zhou Sen asked.
"Others think you can last ten minutes at most, but I know your identity and I think you can last half an hour." Wu Xiong lowered his voice.
"Okay, you can bet for half an hour. By the way, what are the odds for half an hour?"
"Sixteen times the odds in half an hour."
"Well, I'll keep the time to half an hour, but you have to promise me something."
"What happened?" Wu Xiong was stunned.
"Stop drinking!" Zhou Sen said every word.
"No!" Wu Xiong flatly refused.
"Then I suggest you don't place a bet." Zhou Sen shrugged.
"..."
"Let's go!" Zhou Sen picked up the dinner plate and left.
"Mr. Zhou..."
"Um?"
"Why do we need to impose conditions?"
"I heard that you used to be an excellent bodyguard. I think that an excellent bodyguard should not be drunk all day long, but should always keep his mind clear."
"I broke an arm, and I have a lot of hidden diseases on my body." Wu Xiong's face turned gloomy.
"I can make you a robotic hand, and I can also cure you of hidden diseases, but your inner world needs to be rebuilt by yourself!" Zhou Sen stared at Wu Xiong with his deep eyes, as if he wanted to see through his internal organs.
"I……"
"I don't care."
Zhou Sen strode out of the restaurant without waiting for Wu Xiong to speak.
Mecha modification shed.
When Zhou Sen rushed to the mecha modification shed, the Meteor-G13 was already surrounded by crowds of people. They pointed and commented. It was obvious that they were evaluating Zhou Sen based on the combat effectiveness of this mecha.
How long can it last? After all, this is closely related to their interests and cannot be careless.
Zhou Sen was too lazy to pay attention to them and started working.
One after another, employees from the maintenance department arrived. When they saw the Meteor-G13, they were all dumbfounded, because when they left last night, the mecha was still a pile of spare parts.
Of course, what dumbfounded the maintenance department employees was not that the mecha was almost installed, but because the mecha was completely different from what they thought.
Huge metal tumor.
Exposed keel.
Thinning outer armor.
…
If the previous Meteor - G13 was a gentleman with graceful and smooth lines, then the current Meteor - G13 is full of violence and brutality.
Damn it!
Is this still a classic mecha?
A group of employees in the maintenance department were left speechless by Zhou Sen. What made them even more depressed was that they could no longer intervene in the modification because they had no idea of Zhou Sen's modification ideas and concepts.
Zhou Sen doesn't need their help. For him, he mainly needs his subordinates to complete basic repairs and modifications for him. He still wants to rely on himself. After all, he can use this to practice his weapon refining skills. Whenever the smelting furnace
Whenever a metal part comes out of it, Zhou Sen will feel a strong sense of accomplishment.
There was not much work left, and Zhou Sen quickly installed all the spare parts that needed to be installed.
Just when everyone was looking forward to Zhou Sen going to the Iron Armor Paradise, Zhou Sen asked his subordinates to drag the Meteor-G13 to the testing site.
Wu Xiong had been waiting eagerly. When everyone brought the mecha into the testing field, he quickly walked to Zhou Sen's side.
"Mr. Zhou, I quit drinking!" Wu Xiong's originally sluggish eyes sparkled with method.
"Yeah. Half an hour!"
"Is it accurate?"
"I'll try my best!" Zhou Sen was as calm as an old dog on the outside, but he was panicking inside. After all, he was not sure about how long he could last, but now he could only pretend to be inscrutable.
Of course, Zhou Sen also believes that a person like Wu Xiong, who is a loser, probably doesn't have much wealth. Even if he loses everything, it doesn't matter. At worst, he will be compensated.
Just as Zhou Sen climbed onto the cockpit, in a small office, three gray-haired old men sat in a row and were watching Zhou Sen climb onto the mecha on the holographic screen. Behind them, stood an ancient spirit.
Weird beautiful girl.
The identities of these three old men are not simple. One is the general consultant of the BU department, one is a modification master, and the other is a fighting master. It is no exaggeration to say that all the products of Meteor Mecha Company in the past thirty years were produced by the three of them.
Hand, not only has a transcendent status in the Meteor Mecha Company, but also has an extremely high status in the mecha field of the entire five star regions.
With their status, the three of them would naturally not pay attention to the head of the maintenance department. However, the three of them could not resist the stalking of a girl - the Duke's youngest daughter.
Sally!
Sally particularly hates Iger. Iger has seriously affected her life because Iger always brags that Sally is his girlfriend. As a result, no one dares to pursue Sally, which makes Sally hate him to the bone.
Sally wants a boyfriend because all her best friends of the same age have boyfriends, but she is alone, which makes her embarrassed.
For Sally, it is absolutely shameful and humiliating for a girl to not have a boyfriend!
Of course, Sally had also thought about accepting Iger's pursuit, but she didn't know what I knew. She became anxious when she saw him. It was impossible for him to become an ordinary friend, let alone a couple.
In the Iron Armor Paradise, Sally had hidden her identity and challenged Egger more than once, but what made her depressed was that she never succeeded.
It is precisely because of the above reasons that Sally hoped that Zhou Sen could defeat Egg. To this end, she not only provided Zhou Sen with a golden V card that allowed him to receive unlimited supplies, but also persuaded the three giants of the Meteor Mecha Company to come forward and give them advice.
Zhou Sen.
Originally, the three veteran figures were too frustrated by the perverse Miss Sally to deal with it, but as it turned out, they were attracted by Zhou Sen's modification ideas.
Sally's idea was to ask the three elders to give Zhou Sen technical guidance, but she never dreamed that her behavior would lead them into a trap.
Since yesterday, the three elders have been sitting in the office studying the holographic image of Zhou Sen's modified Meteor-G13.
The three of them were fascinated by what they saw.
Throughout the night, the three of them studied Zhou Sen's motives.
At the same time, the three of them were also studying Zhou Sen's metal formula, because they discovered that many spare parts were cast by Zhou Sen himself.
At first, the three people did not take Zhou Sen's casting seriously, but soon they discovered that according to the calculation results of the optical computer, the modification did not change the overall weight of the G13. The three people did not think this was a coincidence.
Because, in the modification market, most modifiers do not pay attention to the overall weight, only modification masters will pay attention to this aspect.
Anyone who can truly be called a modification master knows very well that the birth of a mecha is the hard work of countless scientists and engineers, and its weight has also been optimized countless times through optical brains. It can be said with certainty that every mecha is manufactured after it leaves the factory.
At any time, its proportion is the optimal configuration.
Of course, many mechas will leave some room for modification, but the G13 does not fall into this category, because the G13 is a high-end mecha, all top-of-the-line. In other words, the modification space left for the G13 is almost negligible.
.
Under normal circumstances, the lower-end the product, the more room there is for modification, and the higher-end the product, the space for modification is very small, because the manufacturer's designers have basically thought of everything they can think of, even if it needs to be modified.
It's also difficult to improve performance, and at most it's just some fancy gimmicks.
Now, a little-known young man actually modified the G13. Even though it is an outdated product, its performance is still top-notch.
If it was just an ordinary modification, it would naturally not be noticed by the three veterans, but the problem now is that their modification actually completely complied with the original weight ratio of the G13. This situation can be explained in two ways. The first
The first is a dogmatist; the second is a genius.
Dogmatist!
Although the three elders were attracted, they still tended to think that Zhou Sen was a dogmatist. After all, the other party was too young. Let alone a modification master, it was difficult for even the most ordinary modification engineer to reach the level. The most important thing was that,
This young man's modifications are too exaggerated...
…
Of course, speculation is nothing but speculation, and the three elders are still full of curiosity.
On the holographic screen, Zhou Sen had climbed into the cockpit of G13, and then, with a huge roar, the steel mecha weighing dozens of tons rushed out without warning.
The moment the mecha rushed out, the three elders looked at each other with disappointment on their faces.
This young man is not someone who cares about mechas.
It is difficult for a person who does not know how to cherish mecha to become a true master.
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
…
As the mecha crashed crazily left and right in the test field, there was a thrilling loud noise in the office.
Snap!
The holographic image was turned off, and the faces of the three elders showed anger.
"Hey, why is it closed?" Sally, who was watching with great interest, protested.
"This is not a test or training, this is complete nonsense!" the general counsel of the BU department angrily yelled.
"But I look like I'm having a lot of fun!" Sally looked at the three elders weakly.
"..." The three elders looked at each other.
"Forget it, you are all old and I don't understand what I'm talking to you about. I'll go see it live!" Sally snorted coldly, pouting and ran out.
Old!
Are we really old?
The three elders looked at each other with a look of sadness on their faces, because Sally's words reminded them of Meteor Mecha Company.
No one knows the current situation of Meteor Mecha Company better than the three elders.
Although the current Meteor Mecha Company is prosperous and there is a long queue of orders, the three elders know that the development of Meteor Mecha Company has reached a bottleneck, and the five star regions are in troubled times, and the rise of mechas is taking advantage of the situation.
Companies are springing up like mushrooms after a rain.
The current surge in business volume of Meteor Mecha Company is not due to the increase in competitiveness of Meteor Mecha Company, but because of the increase in demand for mechas in the five major star regions. In fact, among the entire market share, Meteor Mecha Company’s
The share is declining year by year.
If the current trend continues, if Meteor Mecha Company does not improve its competitiveness, Meteor Mecha Company will become a second-rate mecha company in at most ten years.
In fact, ten years is a conservative time. If Meteor Mecha Company does not launch highly competitive products, within five years, Meteor Mecha Company will be overtaken by those rising stars.
Now is a crucial time for the entire Meteor Mecha Company.
"Maybe we are really old."
"How about we see again."
"Well, it's just idle time anyway..."
…
The three veterans reopened the holographic image. At this time, G13 was still running rampant in the small test field. The test field had been changed beyond recognition due to its deliberate destruction.
Seeing those carefully set obstacles being destroyed, the hearts of the three elders were bleeding, because these seemingly simple and ordinary arrangements have deep meanings. After all, this is a testing ground, and testing is not fighting. The main thing is
Test the performance of the mecha.
Now, that damn bastard actually used the testing ground as a training ground!
Zhou Sen has no idea that he has been upgraded from a dogmatist to a damn bastard.
Zhou Sen is testing and training.
Zhou Sen has no choice, because now the Steel Paradise is full of mecha combat masters of level three or above. If he enters recklessly, it will be nothing more than getting killed. Then, the only way is to train in this test field and get familiar with it.
Mecha performance.
Just as the three elders were bleeding from the sight, the crowd was placing bets crazily.
Now, some people think that Zhou Sen can last for ten minutes at most, while more people think that Zhou Sen can last for five seconds at most, because he doesn't understand mecha combat at all...
