The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 416 Different
To be honest, Carlo spoke quite well, but most people present were confused. I guess only a handful of people felt that way, and Jiang Hui was one of them.

After all, the Blazing Fire series was a mecha that had received Imperial certification, and its unique design and intricate structure were top-tier. Carlo oversaw the entire creation process, spending nearly nine years on it. During that time, he practically lived in the laboratory, turning down all other orders that came his way.

How could something that seems flawless from the outside be understood and seen through in just one or two lessons? What Carlo is saying now is just some preliminary ideas about this mecha.

However, for talented and inspired individuals, this is undoubtedly a feast of knowledge.

Of course, no matter how proud someone was, they wouldn't dare say they could answer that question.

A murmur arose from below, and seeing that Tarot did not stop it, the murmurs grew even quieter.

“When I first started building the Blazing Fire series, I studied various types of mechs and chose the one-piece mech, which was more technologically advanced. However, in terms of shape and structure, I decided on two directions: one was the standard mimicry linear mech, and the other was the hybrid neutral type we have now.”

"Logically speaking... the conjoined armor itself is lighter and more maneuverable than ordinary mechs, and it goes very well with the mimicry linear design. Moreover, the core technologies of the two are relatively easy to integrate. But in the end, I chose the more complex hybrid neutral type. Can any of you tell me why, or rather—what would you choose if you were in my shoes?" After enjoying the lively discussion for a while, Carlo threw out the question.

He had asked this question at Wanjiang Middle School as well. The students' responses were not entirely satisfactory, but they were generally acceptable. However, none of them gave him any truly insightful ideas.

Then the discussion below became even more chaotic. Of course, most of it was concentrated among the students learning about mecha. The vast majority of people in the room didn't know much about professional mecha knowledge, and their understanding of mecha came entirely from the lessons they had just learned... It was too much to ask them to imagine and evolve mecha.

"Ah, this... I don't even really understand what a mimicry linear mech is," Hillman murmured.

“It’s a standard mecha type,” Jiang Hui explained. She thought for a moment, “This is indeed relatively rare in daily life; it’s mostly used in professional competitions or for exploration missions.”

In fact, this mimicry of lines is quite unique even in standard mechs. The construction of such mechs involves the issue of line construction. The proportions and curvatures of the lines in each part need to be properly matched. Improperly constructed lines not only fail to unleash the mech's combat power but also significantly reduce its effectiveness.

However, because the combination and proportions are too difficult, and there are many forms of expression, it is extremely time-consuming and energy-intensive to build. Therefore, this kind of mecha has never been very popular in the market, and the number of mecha pilots who can build it is also limited.

Furthermore, most of the current mimicry linear mechs use old templates inherited from the past, and there are only a dozen or so commonly used ones. There are very few styles to choose from unless you can find a mech designer who can build mimicry linear designs to customize one for you.

“Sigh, it’s too complicated. It seems I’m really not suited to learning this. When I was little, my dad wanted me to learn it too, so he enrolled me in several early education classes, but I didn’t even attend a few classes… I would fall asleep as soon as I listened to a lecture, and eventually he just gave up.” Hillman shook his head and said.

Jiang Hui was a little exasperated. Ah, this... he's the type who has absolutely no interest; even if you force him to learn, he might not be able to. It's best not to push him.

However, this isn't a matter of understanding or not; rather, Carlo's question was extremely tricky and thought-provoking. Even those formally trained mecha pilots might not be able to answer it immediately, let alone these amateurs in the room.

"What is this all about? If I knew why, wouldn't I be able to compare myself to the person on stage?" "What you're saying... Mr. Carlo is trying to test us. Just because you don't understand doesn't mean others can't understand. If you don't know, don't talk nonsense."

"...You talk like you know everything. Haven't you always wanted to make a name for yourself? Here's your chance. Why don't you go up and give it a try? Maybe they'll take you as a student. That's Sheda Caro, after all."

"Why would I? Would I be waiting here idly?"

“Herrera, didn’t you research a similar topic before? I think you can answer it, maybe… to get Mr. Carlo to treat you differently.” The student who had fled earlier but hadn’t forgotten to pull Herrera along gently patted the person next to him and whispered.

He actually wanted to say, "Tell the other person to make up for their bad impression of you," but then he thought that his proud classmate might get even angrier if he heard that, and it would backfire.

Herrera remained silent.

"Herrera," someone called out again. Actually, there was no hope left; this guy was probably too proud to admit it, and who knew if he'd even come to class next time.

As expected, there was no response. The person who had asked the question didn't dare to say anything more. He was rather timid and not very bright, and since the start of the semester, he had always followed behind Herrera meekly. He also knew that many people were gossiping behind his back that he was like a little shadow following Herrera around, spineless.

But who among them knew that Herrera, who was arrogant and domineering in the eyes of others, was such a righteous person when he was in elementary school?

Even this time... the conflict with the logistics department was caused by hearing the frustrated complaints of several classmates who couldn't get a spot in class, which led to the argument.

In his eyes, Herrera was indeed somewhat arrogant and domineering, but he was also kind.

The student was so proud, yet he was publicly reprimanded by his idol in front of students from all grades and majors. He must have felt terrible.

No matter how uncomfortable he felt, he had to stand tall in front of everyone—at least he had to do so during this class.

Hopefully, Mr. Carlo can forgive Herrera's slip of the tongue and recognize his talent.

However, no one stood up to answer Carlo's final question. The depth of thought required was beyond the comprehension of beginners, let alone non-professionals; in fact, almost no one present could answer it. They felt that Carlo's question was more like a challenge for them.

Carlo didn't rush to call on anyone to answer, instead giving everyone some time to think before stopping. It seemed the planned last two sections were also abandoned, and the auditorium fell into a brief silence.
