The little tail of the devil continued to wag enticingly, "This alloy is not only highly resistant against physical attacks, it is also highly effective against energy based weapons. Most commendably, its density is only a third of the lightest known mech alloy. You can imagine, if a mech made of this alloy is powered by a normal engine, its speed would still be terrifying. "
Ye Chong's eyes glowed brighter.
As long as it was related to mechs and mechs, Ye Chong would be attracted to it.
"This alloy is definitely the ideal choice for a mech. Ye, think about it, if a mech is made with this alloy, tsk tsk …" Shang's electronic voice sounded like astonishment, which was indescribably strange.
Ye Chong, on the other hand, did not notice it at all. His brain was thinking like crazy. If it was really as Shang said, then it would be wonderful!
However, Ye Chong quickly recovered, "You know the formula for this alloy?"
Shang said proudly, "Of course. While I do not know where the formula came from, it seems to be in the database all along." Shang sounded doubtful as he spoke. "Unfortunately, a lot of the data was damaged. Mu and I tried many ways but could not recover it!"
Shang paused and continued, "However, this Do Kun stone is too little for a mech!"
Ye Chong looked at the Do Kun stone that was only the size of two fists, and thought about a mech that was more than 10 meters tall, and nodded in agreement. His specialty was mech mechanics, and he was not familiar with metallurgy. If Shang said so, then it must be true!
Ye Chong recalled what Shang said earlier, and asked, "Shang, didn't you say that it could be stimulated to grow artificially?"
Shang's electronic eyes twinkled, "Yes, but I do not know the specific value, that part of the data was damaged. I only know that the Do Kun stone can be stimulated to grow through fixed cultivation."
"Fixed cultivation?" It was the first time Ye Chong heard of this term.
Shang saw that he had successfully piqued Ye Chong's interest, and his tone became more excited, "Fixed cultivation is a professional term used by alchemists, of course you don't know!"
"Alchemist?" Ye Chong was even more confused, it was obviously a profession that he had never heard of.
"Ye, there are many other occupations in this world besides mech pilots. There are many other interesting things besides mechs. You're only interested in mechs, you'll lose a lot of fun!"
Ye Chong looked at Shang in surprise. "Shang, since when did you become so sentimental? Oh, that's not right. It used to be Mu, Shang. Are you really this sentimental? That's an unpleasant habit. You may be right, but mechs are my hobby! "
The difference between Shang and Mu was huge! Ye Chong thought.
Shang coughed electronically. He paused for a moment and decided to ignore Ye Chong's words. "An alchemist," he continued as if nothing had happened, "Alchemists control the growth conditions of living things to get what they want. Being an alchemist involved biology, biological growth theory, pharmaceutics, and many other subjects. For example, there were specialized spices and alchemists. They could make spices with unique styles by mixing the culture liquid of spices and plants. These spices were of excellent quality and had no side effects. Therefore, they were much more expensive than artificial spices. There were also medicinal alchemists, gourmet alchemists and so on. Alchemists were very popular, not only because of the popularity of their products, but also … "Shang suddenly stopped talking.
Ye Chong asked curiously, "And what?"
Shang thought for a moment and felt that the reason should not affect Ye Chong. "And alchemists are mostly women!" he said hesitantly.
Ye Chong twitched his mouth indifferently. Women? That had nothing to do with him!
Shang saw the indifferent expression on Ye Chong's face and sighed in relief. However, the sound was simulated electronically, which was really weird.
Ye Chong hesitated. "I still need some time to get used to the Harmony of the Winter Aria, or else it would be too passive in a dangerous situation!" The concept of survival was deeply ingrained in Ye Chong's mind. No matter the situation, he must always be able to react! He had absolute confidence in his strength, but even so, he dared not let his guard down.
If he let his guard down, what awaited him would be death. His decades of life experience had taught him to not let his guard down even a little, even though life seemed to be peaceful now.
Fortunately, Shang did not lose his mind. He nodded and said, "Yes, of course, this is the most important. Hmm, let me calculate, about three days, you should be able to familiarize yourself with this mech. Even though this mech is really unsightly, you can only make do with it for now. The only good thing is this ancient gun. You definitely can't master its usage now. Mu is already simulating how to use this ancient gun. I think you should be able to complete it before he shows up again. It's such a waste not to use the most powerful weapon! "
Ye Chong was overjoyed. He was still figuring out how to use this ancient gun, and Mu was already doing the calculations for him. He felt a little touched.
The north of Jesha was a barren land where not even a single blade of grass grew. The conditions were terrible. Natural trees were extremely expensive. The first batch of explorers who discovered Blue Ocean had been harvesting and chopping them down in order to make a huge profit. This place was one of the most heavily damaged areas back then.
Within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers, there were no signs of human habitation. Sand and pebbles covered the sky for most of the day. The place was dark and gloomy. It was dangerous even for a mech to fly in such an environment. The positioning system would easily fail in such an environment. If the positioning system failed, the only outcome would be to get lost. If one got lost in such an environment, the only outcome would be death from energy cell exhaustion.
This was a restricted area for mechs.
Amidst the sandstorm, there was a faint silhouette of a mech.
Ye Chong carefully maneuvered the Harmony of the Winter Aria. The gorgeous exterior of the mech was now covered in dust, and looked miserable. It was even more difficult to control the mech in such an environment. However, if one could still control the mech freely in such an environment, then the Harmony of the Winter Aria would undoubtedly be very accurate. This was Shang's suggestion. Shang had evaluated the Harmony of the Winter Aria, and felt that it should be able to perform well in such an environment. That was why Ye Chong came here to train.
However, Ye Chong agreed with Shang's theory.
The Harmony of the Winter Aria sped up and changed direction abruptly. The laser sword was activated to its maximum potential, and the dazzling blade was now only a faint yellow halo in the sandstorm. With a swift slash, the sandstorm before Ye Chong's eyes was split open. The ion shield on his left arm blocked the attack. The Harmony of the Winter Aria moved with small steps, but its speed was fast. The laser sword flickered like a venomous snake, and disappeared in a flash. The Harmony of the Winter Aria's huge body slid to the side in an eerie manner. At the same time, the two self-locking double-edged darts shot out like two lightning bolts. Even in this sandstorm, it was still a stunning sight. The two self-locking double-edged darts crossed in the air, and returned to the Harmony of the Winter Aria's hands like two swallows returning to their nest.
The entire movement was smooth like flowing water, without any hindrance even in such a harsh environment.
Ye Chong was satisfied with his performance just now. Now, even if he did not use the archaic gun, he would still stand a chance against an expert like Johansson.
Shang, seeing the success of his theory, was very pleased.
However, when Ye Chong left the area, the once magnificent Harmony of the Winter Aria had become indistinguishable. From afar, it looked like a huge lump of mud. Ye Chong came out of the pilot cabin, and could not help but be dumbfounded. He smiled bitterly. It seemed that this was going to be another huge project!
However, it seemed that the training had been completed perfectly. Ye Chong was now able to control the Harmony of the Winter Aria at will. Ye Chong could not help but sigh in relief.
Biology? Biological growth principles? Pharmaceutics? Ye Chong looked at the vast list of information that Shang had given him. Even with his strong will, he could not help but feel his scalp tingling!
Heavens! Ye Chong could not help but moan! There were so many strange symbols, diagrams, and formulas on the list that Ye Chong almost fainted.
Just then, Grandpa Qian's voice came from outside, "Ye, someone's looking for you!"
Ye Chong climbed out of Shang's pilot cabin as fast as he could. He did not want to stay a second longer in front of these things.
The people looking for Ye Chong were Yang An and Ding Yining. They did not exchange pleasantries. Yang An stated the purpose of their visit. The academy's mech competition would begin in a few days, and he hoped that Ye Chong could be prepared. It would be best if Ye Chong could work with Ding Yining in the next few days. As for the payment, it would be easy to negotiate.
Ye Chong was troubled by the lack of an excuse to escape from Shang's alchemist training plan. Naturally, he agreed immediately. He and Ding Yining returned to Yining's warehouse and began working together. Yang An was very impressed with Ye Chong's straightforward attitude. However, Ye Chong was not interested in this guy.
Ding Yining was the kind of maniac who would become intoxicated once he got into the zone. Ye Chong, on the other hand, had always been interested in mechs, but he never had the chance to practice it. Now that there were so many things for him to play with, he could not be happier. Moreover, there was still the alchemist training plan that had been giving him a headache.
Ye Chong would occasionally ask Ding Yining how to use the equipment, and Ding Yining would ask Ye Chong about the problems that had been troubling him for a long time. The cooperation between the two was getting better and better.
The Blue Ocean Academy's mech competition would be held 3 days later.
