Superman, the Man of Steel, female, 6 years old!

After finishing the remote-controlled operating cabin system, the only thing left was the heavy physical work that belonged to Anna alone.

Just at this time, the extremely efficient sales company also delivered two brand new excavators to Anna on a truck.

Then the two excavators were disassembled into parts.

The two cabs were lost, as was the original chassis.

In the end, only two excavating arms, two engines, a clutch, a turntable and the corresponding control system were retained.

After removing all the parts, Anna pushed out a large excavator chassis from a corner of the barn.

This large chassis was made according to the drawings designed by the two of them before she arrived in Afghanistan.

The purpose is to integrate the excavator's two engines, corresponding clutch, turntable, suspension, tracks, two robotic arms and other equipment onto one base.

Then, an excavator with a single mechanical arm was upgraded on this chassis into a mechanical crab with two engines and two arms.

It stands to reason that such a chassis is difficult to make, because such a large mechanical structure cannot be simply enlarged.

The larger the chassis, the higher the strength requirements of the material.

Blindly increasing the thickness of the metal material will only seriously reduce the power of the engine. This requires a lot of experiments and according to the metal properties, then the best effect can be achieved.

Fuel tanks, pipes, bearings, all of these need to be considered.

And there are things like metal stress, fatigue, etc., which are simply not something a little kid like Anna can handle.

But who can blame Kryptonians for being best at large-scale metal forging? They can make any large metal forgings by hand.

And when she was working on this chassis, she also had the most cheating thing in the Marvel world.

That is the pile of vibranium ore that Anna kept in the warehouse.

This is the ultimate solution to overcoming the limitations of ordinary metal materials in the Marvel world.

What to do if the frame is not strong enough?

Add some vibranium!

Ah! ~The spring and transmission rod seem to be not working well either...

It’s okay, just add some vibranium!

Therefore, the manufacturing difficulty of the mechanical chassis of Anna and her colleagues' system is actually much simpler than the remote control arm mentioned above.

Chapter 085: Digging a Hole Before Building a Base

While Anna was installing two engines and a robotic arm on the chassis, Mai Mai was also making a mechanical exoskeleton for himself using acrylic material.

Of course, this exoskeleton-like thing is very simple now.

Not to mention the upper body, which has no power at all.

However, after distributing the weight of the remote control arm covered with sensors to the entire upper body, Mai Mai's battery life was increased to more than half an hour.

The entire 'exoskeleton' is made almost entirely of lightweight acrylic material, with sensors and wiring hidden inside. After Anna buckled the belt and tried it out, she found that she could hardly feel any weight in her hands.

Memory foam is also used as a cushion at the waist and shoulders, which is not uncomfortable at all.

After connecting to the small, experimental excavator arm in the barn, Anna controlled it and opened a bottle of happy water for the two of them.

perfect!

Relying on the strength of her waist, Anna does not have to exert any effort in operating the small excavator arm, and it is also more convenient to operate.

When this control system matures in the future, Anna and Mai Mai can even wear this "exoskeleton" system and perform a mechanical crab boxing match or sword and shield attack and defense battle on the spot.

……

All remote control systems are already in place.

Now all Anna had to do was follow the steps to install the engine, turntable, and excavator arm onto the large vibranium-infused chassis.

Originally, Anna and the others wanted to build something with immense power that could both split mountains and carry heavy objects.

Moreover, the more than ten-meter-long mechanical arm is extremely flexible. In addition to building blocks and opening bottle caps, it can also play with steel machines for sword and shield attack and defense.

It's like putting the upper body of Optimus Prime on a tracked chassis.

However, after studying for a long time, the two little girls finally realized that even with the help of vibranium, they couldn't handle such a complicated transmission system and software control system...

The final product can only become what it is now, which is made up of two excavators.

This thing is a bit rigid and has very few moves.

The robotic arm modified from an excavator is not that flexible.

But on the second day, after the finished product was finally installed by Anna.

Their giant mechanical crab with two excavator arms can be used to do ordinary work on construction sites.

Boom boom boom~~……

Early the next morning.

Amid the roar of the two diesel engines on the chassis, the two excavator arms of the mechanical crab bent together and placed obediently on its chassis. Then, under Mai Mai's remote control, the entire machine roared all the way out of Anna's yard.

Because there are six drones flying in the sky, plus several cameras installed on the big mechanical crab, there are more than a dozen real-time images of different sizes and perspectives displayed in front of Mai Mai in the control cabin.

The picture with the largest image and the most comfortable viewing angle is a surveillance picture taken by a drone at a 45-degree angle from the rear.

At this time, Mai Mai was sitting on the ergonomic chair with his hands stretched into the air and placed on the glove-like mechanical arms.

There is a glass of juice in front.

Place your feet on the two pedals of the chair.

Just like playing a racing game with great graphics, Mai Mai opened the third-person God's perspective on the screen and rumbled the big mechanical crab to the launch silo that Anna bought.

There were cleaning company personnel in the launch silo currently cleaning out the garbage and debris, so Anna and the other two little girls naturally couldn't help.

However, on the ground next to the silo, Anna and Maimai have already started leveling the land and digging the earth using this large mechanical crab with two buckets.

Although Anna will be responsible for most of the earthwork at this base, after starting the mechanical crab, Mai Mai can also prepare a storage yard nearby for storing concrete and steel.

You can also first level the area for subsequent concrete pumps, tower cranes, water pumps, drone charging stations, etc. to dock.

……

In the design of Anna's underground base, the original structure of the nuclear-proof and electromagnetic radiation-proof launch silo was used as a storage place for supercomputers, large circular elevators, and warehouses for storing various materials.

Like other underground production lines, living quarters, weapons depots, garages, and in the future, satellite signal receiving rooms and main control rooms...

These other parts are all around the super-large helipad that is now to be excavated, and are located on the second and third floors next to it.

Because Anna has been eyeing the SHIELD's Kazuki-1, which has not yet appeared, the underground helipad they are digging is 120 meters long and 60 meters wide.

And the depth reaches as high as 40 meters.

Although it is not known what the final size of the Kazukaze-1 designed by Fitz will be, the space that Anna and the others are currently excavating can accommodate two B-52 Stratofortresses if they are squeezed side by side.

If it is only used to dock a Kazukaze-1, there will naturally be no problem at all.

Moreover, the huge depth of 40 meters can be equipped with a sliding overhead crane and a giant manhole cover system after the aircraft stops.

Add to that the living quarters around this giant helipad and other areas, and the space occupied by the outer walls of the underground base.

So what Anna and the others have to dig now is a big pit that is 150 meters long, 100 meters wide, and nearly 45 meters deep.

Hmm! ~

In other words, Anna and Maimai need to dig out 675,000 cubic meters of earth next to the launch silo before they can start building the imaginary base in the big pit.

However, this kind of earthwork, which is as simple as repetitive labor, is not a big problem for a Kryptonian like Anna who is good at cheating.

Because it is daytime now, there are still some people from the cleaning company in the launch silo next to it, so Anna is still in the barn testing the remote control operation of the mechanical crab with Mai Mai.

But at night, someone can carry a large alloy bucket like the one used for an excavator... and go down to the big pit to dig the soil.

One shovelful equals one cube.

One shovel down...

It's another cube.

After collecting about 30 tons of soil in a box removed from a large truck, they dumped it on the edge of the farm, less than 500 meters away from the excavation site.

If she was motivated enough, it would take Anna less than two minutes to go back and forth.

In order to speed up the excavation, they also prepared several carriages.

Maimai's mechanical crab can be lifted to the bottom of the pit so that she can collect soil, while Anna can be responsible for transporting and dumping the soil when it is full.

Even for these simple digging tasks, they can write an automatic digging algorithm based on the autonomous driving system, and then build a few unmanned mechanical crabs or bulldozers.

If they can dig out 500 carriages of earth a day, then the entire underground base's initial excavation work...

It only took the two of them 45 days to complete it.

Chapter 086 Iron Man--The new deification movement!

2008 7 Month 4 Day.

More than a week after Anna's family returned to the farm, the "Iron Man" movie produced by her Amazon Studios finally began to be released simultaneously around the world on the US Independence Day holiday.

While she was digging holes at home, it was unknown whether Tony had discovered another illegal arms deal from the company's historical documents, or whether he was trying to divert the shareholders' attention at the board meeting...

What was manifested outwardly was that he flew to a valley in Afghanistan two days ago and destroyed a peripheral organization of the Ten Commandments Gang that was similar to the freedom fighters.

So the popularity of Iron Man, which had just subsided for over a week, has become a hot topic again because TV stations around the world are broadcasting it in a loop.

Especially in the areas of the United States' sphere of influence, because the US military's presence in Afghanistan and Iraq has now turned both places into a quagmire.

So in order to boost the morale of the lower-level soldiers in the local army and to divert the attention of the domestic people and media.

This time, the US government and military both began to publicize and promote the outstanding contributions made by Stark, the latest superhero, in "stabilizing East-West relations" and "calming down local regional disputes."

Moreover, even Tony's secret flight to Afghanistan and his voluntary strike against the Ten Rings' peripheral organizations were given a cloak of justice by them.

There are rumors circulating that Comrade Stark, who suddenly emerged from nowhere, has been nominated among the candidates for this year's Nobel Peace Prize.

In order to cover up the weak progress and unfavorable situation of the US military in the two anti-terrorism battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq... the Pentagon and the military are now trying their best.

Basically, just as Captain America was promoted by the propaganda department of the US government during World War II, Stark is now promoted by the US government and the media they control.

The only difference between the two sides was that at that time they used the Captain America character they had established to call on the public to donate money and supplies.

Today, the US government wants the public to ignore how much money it spent and how many American men died in Afghanistan and Iraq...

This is also the latest Captain America-style deification campaign launched by the US government in order to divert attention, after several weeks of fermentation.

Tony has now become the most well-known and familiar superhero on the entire planet.

In this win-win propaganda feast with the US government, the people and the media, Tony officially secured the position of chairman of Stark Industries, which he had just been kicked out of.

Otherwise, if the US government and the Pentagon hadn't been behind the whole thing, what would have happened if Stark had revealed the information at the press conference?

He would not have become the popular figure he is today.

Because people's attention is limited, and the shift in their interests is the most unreasonable.

There are people in this world who are richer than him.

There are people smarter than him.

There are those who are more powerful than him.

There are also superheroes with more experience than him.

So why is he so unknown now, while Stark is so famous?

Although Stark's personal charm does play a certain role.

But all this is also the result of the government's need for propaganda.
