Witch Special

Chapter 116: Cannons are a man’s romance, regardless of age.

You know what, it really is a fort.

As the robots continued to work, more and more parts were modularly installed into various components and installed one by one. A huge cannon with the muzzle pointing straight up gradually pulled back its mysterious veil, revealing its hideous appearance.

"Wow~~ It's really a grand project." Looking at the super turret that stood out from the crowd in the glazed altar, Lin Zhenxi couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement.

In about ninety minutes, the vast number of engineering robots had stacked the turret like building blocks to a height of over a hundred meters. By now, the base of the turret had been completely erected, with only the six metal columns forming the anti-aircraft gun barrel still being added.

A swarm of flying engineering robots bustled about the sky like worker bees, a black mass that obscured the sun. The crates, fitted with ejectors, launched themselves into the air. In mid-air, the robots unpacked them, removing the parts and discarding the empty crates. The ejectors then automatically detached, attaching themselves to other crates still piled on the ground. They were also robots, apparently.

This is almost making the robot into something special... Is it Metal Knight?

In Lin Zhenxi's impression, three of the S-class heroes make a living by relying on (black) technology. Among them, Child Emperor relies on various mechanical modifications. He can disguise powerful inventions as daily necessities that can be carried with him. He is also good at creating new materials and new substances that do not exist. He can be said to be the most talented genius scientist.

Well, he is also the most popular handsome little boy in the world, with countless mother fans, and is extremely popular.

The two behind, Metal Knight and Drive Knight, are two guys who have never revealed their true faces.

The former is good at using large armies of robots. He will drown his enemies with an overwhelming sea of ​​robots, and then use all kinds of high-powered artillery and missiles to wash the ground, and use desperate and terrifying firepower to blast the monsters into pieces; while Drive Knight is like Iron Man, who prefers to do things himself. Its body is a huge arsenal, and it has a powerful driving force, and is excellent in both strength and speed.

Obviously, among these three black technology masters, the one most likely to build this turret is Metal Knight.

But is it just Metal Knight? In this world-destroying crisis, Metal Knight can't be the only one to take the spotlight.

Sure enough, it was not the case, because Lin Zhenxi noticed that a little boy with a cold expression that was completely inconsistent with his age walked out of the cabin of an airplane holding a box, looked up at the artillery position under construction, and said something.

As expected, Child Emperor also came. It was a pity that Lin Zhenxi's Liulitan could only see but not hear. Otherwise, she might be able to eavesdrop on the precious confidential information that was only in the hands of a very small number of people, including Child Emperor.

Construction work on the gun barrel continued, and on the ground, a new facility was also being built. This time, it seemed simpler, just a large shed with a...

Oh my god, why does this thing feel so much like a nuclear fusion reactor!

Lin Zhenxi had seen models of nuclear fusion reactors and had a rough idea of ​​what a tokamak and a stellarator were. However, the one being built in this plant seemed to be a target type.

The advantage of this type of reactor over the previous two is that it is smaller in size and does not require large permanent magnets, but the disadvantage is that the inner wall of the chamber requires stronger materials, because nuclear fusion does not occur continuously, but like a diesel engine, it is a detonation type that occurs in an instant and stops in an instant, and the inner cavity inevitably needs to withstand higher pressure.

In the Main World, before the arrival of the aliens, the technology tree hadn't yet reached the point of igniting nuclear fusion technology, and the weak spot lay in materials science. But then the aliens arrived, bringing with them a wealth of otherworldly advanced technologies, and the people of the Main World began to face a happy dilemma: with several possible paths open to them, which one should they choose?

But this is a different world, devoid of aliens from the heavens and myriad realms. To be able to unleash nuclear fusion in a world like this, these technological heroes must have received divine revelation from some indescribable great being.

The people at the scene now definitely don’t know what Lin Zhenxi is complaining about. Child Emperor carried the box into the factory that probably provided energy for the turret, opened the box, and took out a metal sphere that was shining with blue light.

The sealed metal hatch of the reaction chamber was opened by a small humanoid engineering robot. Several super cool mechanical arms stretched out from the backpack carried by Child Emperor, took the metal ball from Child Emperor's hands, reached into the chamber and placed the metal ball in the correct position in the chamber.

The empty robotic arm retracted from the cavity. Child Emperor said something to the robot guarding the hatch, then took out his tablet computer, looked down at the tablet, and left without looking back.

The robot, which was suspected to be operated by Metal Knight himself, turned around to close the hatch, and then the entire robot was attached to the door, deconstructed into some parts, and stuck tightly to the joints of the hatch, reinforcing the hatch again.

It seems that Metal Knight is not completely confident in this container that serves as the reaction chamber.

Everyone is gambling and trying their best to save this world which is desperate but not yet time to give up.

After Child Emperor walked out of the generator plant, he turned around and walked into the artillery position that was being continuously improved. Lin Zhenxi followed Child Emperor and saw him walk into a control room full of edges and corners, and sit down on a seat that didn't look like it was for people to sit on, but seemed to be made of two iron cubes put together.

A control panel that was more than twice as complicated as a normal keyboard appeared in front of him, and four robotic arms once again extended from the backpack behind him.

Child Emperor bent over and struggled to insert the tablet computer into the groove in front of the control panel. He looked at the real-time image of the meteorite's position on the tablet computer, moved his hands, and the mechanical arms also stretched out a little, as if following Child Emperor's movements.

The tablet computer, which originally had only one screen, also began to deform. The screens unfolded from the inside like wings. After being pieced together again, the display area directly expanded sixteen times. Except for the part in the very corner that still displayed the real-time data of the meteorite, the rest of the screen was black and waiting for signal input.

Next, Child Emperor began to show off his sky-high hand speed. With two hands and four robotic arms, six hands tapped the keyboard at the same time. The originally clean tablet screen was instantly filled with various characters, and then began to scroll down, like a waterfall rushing down, with a surging feeling.

Is this the power of the world's top tech giant? It's simply terrifying. Lin Zhenxi couldn't help but gasp as she watched Child Emperor's fingers move so fast that they almost left an afterimage.

Lin Zhenxi is not very clear about the situation on the technology side, but she feels that with Child Emperor's level, even among the company's current technology envoys, his skills are probably top-notch.

Lin Zhenxi stared at Child Emperor's screen for a while, and she clearly realized that with her recent high school education, it was impossible for her to understand the operations of a top technology expert like Child Emperor. She didn't even recognize the characters Child Emperor was typing, and the codes he displayed felt like reading a book in heaven.

Okay, I'm fine now. Bye.

However, Child Emperor did have something Lin Maxi needed right now: a real-time meteorite status monitor. On a screen in the far corner, Lin Maxi could clearly see crucial data like the meteorite's impact countdown, distance, and current speed. Data was what Lin Maxi lacked most. Without authorization to obtain intelligence from the coalition government, she even learned the meteorite's impact location from the internet.

Don't ask why Lin Zhenxi can still access the Internet even though the network and communications in City Z are cut off. Baizhi is different from ordinary citizens, and City Z has not yet been able to cut off Baizhi's channels of external communication.

Through Child Emperor's screen display, Lin Zhenxi discovered that the straight-line distance between the meteorite and the planet had entered within 20,000 kilometers, and it was about to enter a range smaller than the diameter of the earth in the main world.

From an astronomical point of view, this distance is no different from face to face.

Lin Zhenxi stared at the shrinking number for two seconds, then took out his phone and called Saitama on the phone issued by the Hero Association.

"Uncle, get ready, you're about to leave."

"I'm ready, ready anytime." Saitama said this as he jogged around the launch pad, doing some simple gymnastics to stretch his body. Of course, the battle suit he wore during his heroic activities would not be absent at this important moment.

Lin Zhenxi was ready to leave, but Child Emperor seemed to be making faster progress. With Child Emperor personally in charge, the entire fort seemed to be infused with a soul and came alive.

Even while the gun barrel was still under construction, the base below had already begun operation. It was obvious that Child Emperor was also working at his maximum speed.

With a detonation in the reactor building, the barrel of the super battery began to vibrate with flickering arcs of electricity. The engineering robots all retreated a second before the barrel was energized. Apparently, the super battery was officially completed and ready for use.

A super artillery battery with a total height of more than 200 meters and a gun barrel surrounded by six metal pillars with a length of 150 meters, stands like a flagpole on the land on the outskirts of City Z.

Now, as the reactor discharged again and again, the charge in the barrel of the turret continued to accumulate. Gradually, all the arcs connected into one, clinging to the metal pillars, emitting a dazzling and dangerous white light.

Lin Zhenxi suddenly became curious about what kind of things the humans in this world came up with to save their world at this last moment.

Anyway, with Saitama backing us up, let Child Emperor show off first. How will this giant cannon stop the meteorite from hitting the planet?

Lin Zhenxi is looking forward to it.
