There was no communication system, no photon processor, no holographic scanning system, no mechanical arms, nothing at all. If Ye Chong were in the Five Galaxies, he would be too embarrassed to show off such a simple device. However, he had no other choice.
Sitting in the pilot cabin, Ye Chong looked at the primitive control levers, and felt a headache coming on. A control panel? You must be joking, how could there be a control panel without a photon processor?
As the designer, Ye Chong was familiar with the control levers.
He tried to pull the lever, and the entire machine floated silently. The Destiny engine was powerful, even in its simplified form. This was also what Ye Chong was most satisfied with. The combination of the Destiny engine and mildstone had produced a result that was beyond his imagination.
"Heavens, it can fly?"
"Is this a mech?" Ye Chong's assistants stared with wide eyes, discussing among themselves. Everyone was excited. Mechs were their biggest dreams. No one would have thought that the sir was building a mech!
Whoosh! The aircraft shot out like an arrow.
After the initial period of unfamiliarity, Ye Chong quickly got used to the control levers, and became more familiar with the maneuvers. There were no obstacles in the sky, so Ye Chong did not have to worry about accidents.
Ye Chong was quite satisfied with the performance of his target's flying device.
The biggest advantage of this aircraft was its speed. It was super fast. While Ye Chong could not tell what its maximum speed was, based on his experience, it should be between Mach 15 to Mach 20. Besides, this was in the atmosphere. If it was in a vacuum, Ye Chong believed that the speed could be further increased.
Another advantage was its ability to change directions. Other than the main engine, the aircraft was also equipped with many auxiliary engines, which allowed it to change directions easily in a vacuum.
Collision was the name Ye Chong had come up with for the aircraft, although Ye Chong did not think that it was a proper mech. Its main weapon of attack was the sharp bone spear at the top, and its method of attack was to collide with it. Ye Chong had designed two types of bone spears. One was the five-meter long bone spear that was already installed on the aircraft. It was sharp, and could penetrate at high speed. Ye Chong believed that even Han Jia could be pierced through if it was hit by the spear. However, it had a weakness, and that was that it was easy to break. It was not suitable for continuous battles.
The other type of bone spear was only two meters long, and it was even thicker. It looked like a short, blunt cone. Although its lethality wasn't as great as the bone spear from before, it wouldn't break and was more suitable for continuous combat. With Collision's speed, no matter what kind of mech it was, Ye Chong was sure that it would leave a dent in it. If the mech's armor was slightly weaker, it could even be smashed into a pile of scrap metal.
Other than the front end of the Collision mech, its four sharpened bony wings were still a force to be reckoned with.
It could be seen that the Collision mech's power came from its speed, the fastest mech in the world. Without speed, a Collision mech would be trash. Other than Ye Chong, other than this place, there was probably no one else who would make something that looked like a complete failure. After all, if they had such a powerful engine, they could just install it on a mech. Mechs had many ways to fight, unlike Collision.
Ye Chong felt helpless. With the conditions here, making an aircraft that could fly in the air was already his biggest success. Collision's cabin was reinforced as much as Ye Chong could muster. After all, a physical collision like this was a classic case of self-destructing.
Collision? Ye Chong did not have much hope for it. As long as they could hold their ground against the Steelbats, Feng Ye Chong would be satisfied. Fighting against other mechs would be suicidal to him. He was too far behind the times.
Ye Chong would never have guessed that the primitive and outdated Collision mech that he had created out of helplessness would shine so brilliantly in that great war that would be remembered for generations to come!
If the Sang Family Village was like a raging inferno, then the Collision mech was like throwing an excessive amount of accelerant into the fire.
Another order from the master, however, raised everyone's enthusiasm to a higher climax.
Sir had personally ordered Sang Pu and the 500 people who participated in the hunt with Ye Chong to be the first batch to learn how to pilot Collision. Everyone was in a frenzy! Everyone worked hard on the parts they had, hoping to have a Collision mech of their own. No matter when, everyone suddenly realized that the opportunity that had appeared in their dreams was now just around the corner.
Sang Fan and the rest were probably the busiest. The first batch consisted of 500 people, which meant that they had to assemble 500 Collision mechs in a short period of time. With no other choice, Sang Fan, with Ye Chong's permission, expanded the assembly team to speed up the process. As the villagers became more proficient in making bone parts, the speed at which they handed in their parts increased significantly. The daily production of Collision mechs was greatly increased.
Ye Chong was very appreciative of the Sang villagers. They were simple, hardworking, brave, and had strong discipline. No matter how you looked at it, they were the most outstanding warriors.
It was evident from the way they learned to pilot. None of the 500 people backed down. They were not afraid of death, and dared to move. Ye Chong was surprised by the speed of their improvement. It was as if they were all talented in piloting Collision mechs. They picked up the controls quickly without any side effects.
However, Ye Chong soon understood. These people were all combat experts. Ye Chong believed that even a Jie expert from the Five Galaxies would not be able to win against these ordinary villagers. Their strong physique, superb reflexes, acute senses, and strong mental fortitude honed from life and death battles were the reasons for their rapid improvement.
If they were piloting normal mechs, they would not have improved so much. Normal mechs were much more complicated to pilot than Collision mechs. The control panel was more convenient for experienced mech pilots, allowing them to perform more maneuvers. However, for the Sang Family villagers who had no prior experience in piloting mechs, it was like reading a book from heaven. On the other hand, the primitive control panel made it easier for them to pilot.
The only thing they needed to learn about Collision was how to fly.
Ye Chong did not hide anything from them, teaching them every move. Their performance surprised Ye Chong as well. For example, after learning the evasive maneuvers Ye Chong taught them, they immediately came up with new tricks, and most of them were quite effective. Collision mechs' single attack style was used to its fullest. Ye Chong suddenly thought that if the Five Galaxies' mechs were to fight against them, it would be a headache for them.
However, what Ye Chong admired the most was not this, but their teamwork. What Ye Chong did not know was that while the Sang villagers admired individual bravery, they did not believe in lone heroes. In this place, the strength of an individual was always insignificant. Without teamwork, they would definitely die even faster.
Their teamwork, honed through life and death battles, played a huge role here. Everyone knew where they should be at that moment, and what actions they should take to benefit the situation at that moment. Ye Chong found it hard to believe, because he knew that Collision mechs did not have any communication devices.
Time was running out. The beast stampede continued to rush out from the valley in front of the village. The day of the steelbats' arrival was approaching. However, all the villagers were full of confidence, and each of them did their best to carry out their own duties.
The second batch of mech pilots took part in the training reached 10,000, and their instructors were the 500 people from the first batch. Ye Chong had assigned this task to Sang Pu, because he found that Sang Pu was an excellent group commander. Whether it was in terms of tactics or the ability to judge the situation, he was far better than a layman like Ye Chong.
All the work was on track. Sang Pu trained, Sang Fan assembled, Sang Rubei made the engine parts, Sang Ling made the mech parts, and the village head, Sang De, was in charge of polishing the mildstone and harvesting the sapphire fruits. Ye Chong suddenly found himself free again.
Han Jia's energy cells were almost depleted, and it was time to modify the energy source. With the non-linear cobalt, Ye Chong planned to install a teardrop mineralite in Han Jia. Ye Chong was already familiar with the usage of teardrop mineralite, and the modification went smoothly. However, Ye Chong did not expect the teardrop mineralite to strengthen the Destiny engine.
If Mu and Shang's theory was correct, then this teardrop mineralite would be enough for Han Jia to fly for a hundred years.
Ye Chong wanted to study the mysterious teardrop mineralite, but seeing that he only had two left, Ye Chong could not bear to part with them.
Ye Chong's desire for research was piqued, so he changed his research direction to mildstone. Ye Chong valued this energy ore very much. While it was not as effective as teardrop mineralite, its large reserves made it the most important energy source in this place.
Energy was the core of modern technology.
Besides, mildstone attracted Ye Chong's attention for another reason. Ye Chong had accidentally caused a mildstone to explode last time, and remembered the power of that explosion. Mildstone undoubtedly contained a large amount of energy. If the energy could be released in a short period of time, it would be very powerful.
