505 Tell the R&D Department
The prerequisite for developing mechs was to make the Biological Regeneration Agent as common as Life First and Second.
Once these three potions could benefit the whole of China, Wu Mo would have the confidence to carry out the ultimate research against sea monsters.
At this moment, the Biological Regeneration Agent had already cured the disabilities of countless people, and one batch after another was being sent to the Institute of Special Biology.
Wu Mo felt extremely gratified. Not only did this cause bring him prestige and praise, but it also brought him many benefits.
Finally, one day, Wu Mo decided to start developing the mechs.
This undertaking needed to be kept a secret until the war mechs were invented. The public could not learn about it.
For this, Wu Mo had an especially long conversation with the old chief late at night.
After three hours of discussion, the old chief was amazed. It took him a long time to calm down.
He then encouraged Wu Mo. “Go ahead and do it. I’ll set this as a high-priority project so that all parties will make way for you. We’ll give you our full cooperation in its development.”
Wu Mo nodded. He had met up with the old chief for this very reason.
After all, the development of the war mech was of great importance. It required the full cooperation of all the major departments. There could not be any mistakes in the process.
Materials were the main problem, though.
Wu Mo pondered for a moment and suggested, “Chief, I need Huayang Heavy Industries in Dongyang to mass produce the material for the shell. Do you think it’s okay?”
Huayang Heavy Industries was the largest steel smelter in the country, and its production capacity was extremely large.
Wu Mo had taken a fancy to the enormous power of this smelter.
He needed Huayang Heavy Industries to temporarily stop some of its business and focus on the production of mech shell materials.
Wu Mo understood that the outer shell of this type of mech had extremely high requirements. Its hardness, toughness, water resistance, fire resistance, and many other aspects had to meet extremely high standards.
Among the many steel smelters in China, there were not many that could meet these conditions, and Huayang Heavy Industries was undoubtedly the best among them.
The old chief nodded in agreement. “Go ahead and do it. I’ll give the orders over on my side.”
After expressing his gratitude, Wu Mo began to prepare the base for the development of mechs. The location was located at the harbor of Shen Gang, which had been destroyed by sea monsters.
The place was heavily guarded, with intense firepower and strict surveillance to ensure that the outside world could not spy on Wu Mo’s research direction.
Wu Mo also specially selected a hundred senior engineers and technical workers.
Then, they assembled the pieces according to the model’s direction, finally forming the overall external structure of the mech.
As for the internal chip and the main control system, Wu Mo chose to design it himself.
When these engineers and technical workers saw the design of the mech’s external structure, they were amazed. “Oh, my God, Chief Engineer Wu! Are you developing such a large tank?”
They still did not know what a war mech looked like. They only knew that Wu Mo wanted to create a large-scale combat device, but its scale was even larger than a tank.
“This is a brand-new weapon device,” Wu Mo explained. “It’s different from any weapon in the past. You guys can assemble them according to the modules first. You’ll understand when the time comes.”
At this moment, not only did Huayang Heavy Industries have to provide materials for Wu Mo, but many other manufacturers also had to keep up with the pace.
Time was of the essence. Wu Mo knew that every second was crucial. He had to complete the production of his first war mech in a very short time.
The birth of mechs was only the beginning. They still needed to be perfected in the future. Otherwise, when facing sea monsters on the battlefield, it was very likely that an awkward situation would occur.
The battle mech was fundamentally different from the Biological Regeneration Agent. It had to constantly find problems in the battle with the sea monsters and improve itself.
The engineers and technical workers worked together to perform their duties and install the modules.
Huayang Heavy Industries strictly followed Wu Mo’s requirements to produce the shell materials. The accuracy was extremely high, and the quality was also completely up to standard.
This project involved national security, and neither Huayang Heavy Industries nor the old chief dared to take it lightly.
Huayang Heavy Industries went all out. In just a few days, the hard shell had arrived at the port of Shen Gang.
These huge shells needed to be transported by large trucks, making the pedestrians in the city dumbfounded.
It was hard for them to imagine what these shells would be used for. Even veteran military fans could not figure it out.
After a week of intense construction, engineers and technicians had completed about one-third of the shell installation.
The legs and head of the mech gradually took shape. It was like a human-shaped steel beast.
All the participants were surprised and thought, ‘What exactly does Chief Engineer Wu want to build?’
However, at this moment, curiosity was useless. They had to complete the task given by Wu Mo as soon as possible.
At the same time, Wu Mo handed over the model and fixed panel to the engineers and technicians before he devoted himself to the research of control technology.
The control technology of the war mech required a large number of extremely stable electronic integrated boards.
This stability even surpassed the world’s top luxury cars because it had to respond to all kinds of attacks from sea monsters in an instant, ensuring that commands were transmitted remotely and responding quickly.
At this critical moment, even if they developed a war mech that was larger than the sea monster, if they could not deal with the sea monster’s attack in time, they might become a laughing stock.
Fortunately, with the help of the system, Wu Mo quickly completed the design of the central control command system.
This command system could not only carry out all kinds of temporary reactions, but it also had a fully automated intelligent detection function that could feedback information from the front at any time.
To a certain extent, it could even make independent judgments and replace the human brain to make the most reasonable decisions!
By the time Wu Mo was done with his work, the engineers and technicians had already completed about 80% of the mech’s outer shell.
At this moment, everyone was aware of the behemoth they had created.
They raised their heads to look at the huge steel monster and sucked in a breath of cold air.
“Heavens, isn’t this the embryonic form of that humanoid sea monster?” an engineer could not help but exclaim.
This steel beast was like a sea monster, its muscular lines giving people a strong sense of power and visual impact.
Everyone felt that this design was full of creativity and combined with sci-fi elements, just like the mech monsters in the movies.
The appearance of such a huge mech in reality shocked them.
A technician could not help but ask Wu Mo curiously, “Chief Engineer Wu, where did this inspiration come from?”
“This mech is actually based on the Sea Monster King,” Wu Mo explained. “It mimics the human form, and each joint uses the most scientific method of exerting force to ensure the most effective attack.”
After saying that, he handed them a blueprint. On it were the parts assembly drawings and renderings of the later stages of the mech.
Every engineer and technician was shocked by this design and praised it.
“For such a huge mech to perfectly simulate every detail of a human, it is difficult. I didn’t expect you to use so many parts cleverly, Chief Engineer Wu. I’m really impressed!”
They guessed that after this mech was invented, it would definitely cause a sensation throughout the world.
At this critical moment, the engineers and technical workers quickened their pace and prepared to sprint with all their might to complete the assembly of the remaining modules.
