Reinforcement Panel: Tech Wars

Chapter 139 Dark Star-Tyrant!

【Product Name: Dark Star】

[Introduction: The main body is made of DSS091 alloy, with all-round protection, powered by a thorium-based reactor, equipped with laser weapons and alloy daggers, and has excellent action capabilities]

[Enhancement level: 1 (can be enhanced)]

[Enhanced mission: Wear the armor and defeat 1000 targets with threatening capabilities. Current progress is 100%]

[The focus areas for enhancement include mechanical enhancement, power enhancement, and armed enhancement]

Wei Jiang scanned the three strengthening directions listed on the panel one by one.

There are three options. Just from the text, Wei Jiang can only roughly guess the direction of strengthening.

Mechanical strengthening is most likely the enhancement of the Dark Star suit’s mechanical structure.

If there had not been the previous mechanical enhancement, Wei Jiang would have thought that the power enhancement would be related to the power output of the battle suit.

Now it seems to be other aspects, perhaps the way of action and the ability to act.

Armament enhancement is simple and easy to understand. The goal can only be to attack, attack, and attack again!

Sitting in the driving seat of the Manta Ray, Wei Jiang's eyes wandered over the three options and locked on the one he liked.

The Dark Star Battle Suit has had a clear positioning from the very beginning.

As for the next direction of reinforcement, Wei Jiang decided to continue along the route he had chosen.

"Mechanical strengthening, strengthening!"

In an instant, the Manta Ray cabin was filled with light. Wei Jiang, still wearing his Dark Star battle suit, closed his eyes consciously.

He didn't want to be blinded by the blue light arc when he was strengthened.

The creaking sound of mechanical metal friction is subtle but dense.

Wei Jiang only felt as if ants were crawling across the surface of his skin. During the strengthening process of the battle suit, the alloy parts rubbed against the surface of Wei Jiang's skin.

This change comes from top to bottom.

It is violent but will not hurt Wei Jiang, the person who carries it.

After closing his eyes, the light passed through the thin eyelids and entered Wei Jiang's eyeballs, and the capillaries in the eyelids turned the light red.

The red light sensitivity kept changing, and coupled with the white noise of metal friction in the ears, after fighting for several hours, sleepiness came over me and my breathing became slow.

In a daze, the feeling of the passage of time is no longer strong.

When the red light dimmed, Wei Jiang had fallen into a deep sleep.

Noticing Wei Jiang's condition, Hong Xing, who was controlling the manta ray's flight, didn't say much and controlled the manta ray to dive steadily into the sea.

"Haven't you contacted those two guys yet?"

The man in the suit had a serious look on his face as he sat on the chair next to him and stared at his subordinate standing next to him.

Facing the gaze of the man in the suit, the subordinate looked bitter and resentful.

“Can’t get in touch.”

"Samoth couldn't contact those two people either."

For a moment, the office with only two people in it fell silent.

"It seems that we still underestimated each other."

The man in the suit stood up, walked to the desk, leaned his hands on the desk and thought for a while.

"I declare this mission a failure."

"Tell Samud that it would be best if those two unlucky guys didn't have too much information about their organization."

"Let them initiate the failure plan."

The suit man spoke these words with a gloomy face, and the negativity and frustration behind his words were so clear that the subordinate confirmed that he heard them clearly.

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

The sound of the office door closing was heard, and the man in a suit stood with his back against the desk, staring at the painting on the wall in deep thought.

"The intelligence is still insufficient. I didn't expect that the man had made arrangements at home even though he was away."

"It seems that it is not appropriate to use force now."

As he whispered, the man in the suit tapped his fingers on the edge of the table, his mind working rapidly.

"not enough!"

“More people need to stimulate each other.”

"There's an idiom in the East that goes 'stir up trouble by stirring up the grass'. This grass isn't being stirred up enough!"

“Maybe I should give it a push from behind.”

Samode's action this time was an attempt with the assistance of Ugly Eagle.

This is the key information that was discovered. Otherwise, no matter how many people he sent out, they would have been buried there.

"It's time to have a chat with the higher-ups and stimulate some forces."

Unlike the relatively calm Ugly Eagle Intelligence Department, the atmosphere in Samod where the mission failed was even more solemn.

As an old intelligence organization that has been rampant on Blue Star for decades, the organization has carried out too many classic assassinations on Blue Star.

The dozen or so actions exposed here all had a huge impact on the development of the situation on Blue Star, and helped Little Hat gain immeasurable economic, military and business benefits on Blue Star.

"Evacuate all personnel on the Dongda Nei line as soon as possible. Those who cannot evacuate should hide immediately!"

"We can't afford that person's revenge now."

Everyone could hear the helplessness in his words clearly.

If it weren't for that guy, Xiaomao would still be a bully in the desert, beating up anyone he wanted. How could he be in such a miserable state now?
The Caps are going through their biggest existential crisis in decades, and this retaliatory move was fraught with risk and now appears to have been a complete failure.

【Acquire micro robot manufacturing technology】

While in deep sleep, Wei Jiang's mind was dreaming of fighting on the battlefield when he was suddenly invaded by external forces.

On the battlefield of the bloody setting sun, the sky was covered by dark clouds. When the dark clouds approached, Wei Jiang could see the true nature of the dark clouds.

Mechanical flying insects with wings covered the sky and flew over the battlefield, gnawing at everything in their way, including Wei Jiang who was wearing the Dark Star battle suit.

Awakened by a nightmare, Wei Jiang opened his eyes and saw a line of text updated on the red translucent panel.

Micro robot manufacturing technology!
Because his brain suddenly entered an excited state, sweat suddenly broke out on Wei Jiang's forehead, and he didn't bother to think about the meaning of the text on the panel.

The inspiration about mechanical science that burst out from his mind from nowhere occupied almost all of Wei Jiang's brain cells that could be mobilized and controlled.

His limbs were tense and his hands were clenched into fists. During this period, Wei Jiang knew that he could only try his best and hold on!

Strengthening brings growth, and growth always makes Wei Jiang feel some exhausting pain.

How do parts, power, energy conversion efficiency and raw materials construct a movable machine?

Perception, control, movement, cluster management, how to control large quantities of mechanical devices?

The scientific and technological knowledge related to these contents was brutally instilled into Wei Jiang's brain. Wei Jiang only felt the blood vessels on his forehead bulging, and because of the intense activity of his brain, it seemed that they would burst in the next second.

It is more tiring than physical activity. The pores of sebaceous glands all over the body open, and the fat in the body is quickly broken down and converted into energy for the brain to consume.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but as Wei Jiang gritted his teeth and persevered, a microscopic mechanical object that could move quickly appeared in his mind. His muscles relaxed and his mind went blank.

Apart from the rapid and distinct breathing, there was no movement in the manta ray cabin.

This state lasted for a long time. After his breathing slowed down and stabilized, Wei Jiang sat up straight in the driver's seat.

"once."

"It's harder than ever."

Physically exhausted after the battle, coupled with the exhaustion of mental labor instilled by technology, Wei Jiang could not conceal the desire in his eyes when he looked down and saw the carbonated drink placed next to him.

While moving, Wei Jiang fell directly from the chair to the floor.

The battle suit hit the floor with a loud bang, clang clang~

Without caring about all this, Wei Jiang reached out and grabbed the Coke on the ground and was about to put it into his mouth.

He didn't notice any changes to the battle suit helmet still on his forehead.

When he held the mouth of the Coke bottle and poured the sugar-filled water into his mouth, Wei Jiang even felt that part of the sugar was absorbed in his mouth. Just the sweet taste made him feel that the fatigue deep in his body seemed to be relieved a little.

Wei Jiang was so busy drinking Coke that he didn't notice that when the bottle hit the visor of the helmet, the alloy on the surface of the helmet split into more than a dozen metal fragments that moved to both sides until they converged at the back of the head.

Wei Jiang drank a 500ml bottle of Coke in one gulp.

"Uh~"

Throwing the Coke bottle aside, Wei Jiang slumped in the driver's seat and burped.

"Cool!"

With the replenishment of sugar, the feeling of being drained and exhausted was relieved, and Wei Jiang finally had the mind to observe everything around him.

Including the lower body suit stretched out on the floor.

sturdy!

Powerful! Looking at the calf armor that had become nearly 20cm wide, Wei Jiang knew that the changes to the enhanced Dark Star would definitely be significant.

【Product Name: Dark Star】

[Introduction: Single-soldier combat armor, codenamed Tyrant! All-round protection, isolated from high temperature, poison gas, radiation, and can protect against almost all kinetic weapons. Equipped with laser weapons as a means of long-range attack. As long as the driver is not tired, the Tyrant can continue to fight until the nuclear energy is exhausted.]

[Enhancement level: 2]

[Enhanced mission: Wear armor and destroy 1000 targets with threatening capabilities. Current progress: 0]

Code name: Tyrant!

Seeing these words, Wei Jiang seemed to see the god of death who ruled the battlefield!
Protection against high temperatures, poison gases, radiation, and almost all kinetic weapons!
Although his body was still weak, it did not stop Wei Jiang from laughing out loud.

"Hahahahaha, ok, haha"

"After putting on the armor, you no longer need to hop around like a rabbit."

"Just do it! Whoever is afraid has no balls!"

"Haha. Ahem."

Wei Jiang couldn't catch his breath and coughed for a long time before he finally recovered.

"Cool!"

With lewd laughter from time to time, Wei Jiang began to examine the changes that took place in the Dark Star Suit after it was strengthened.

Not only has the armor on the lower limbs become thicker, but it also has more angular shapes.

The metal spikes extending forward from the knee joint are sharp, and Wei Jiang believes that this thing is definitely not a decoration.

In addition to the metal spikes, the surface of the leg armor is divided into several pieces stacked together from top to bottom. Based on the touch of the legs, Wei Jiang confirmed that the metal parts he saw were just the outer armor of the battle suit.

Under the outer armor, there is a layer of inner armor that is close to Wei Jiang's skin. From the touch of his skin, the metal of the inner armor feels soft and gentle, and the contact with his skin does not make Wei Jiang feel uncomfortable.

"Double-layer structure? Not bad."

With panel transmission technology as a foundation, Wei Jiang can understand the advantages of the Dark Star Suit's structure.

The outer armor is used to protect against high-energy damage, such as mechanical kinetic energy damage, flames, etc.

The inner armor is thought to be able to protect against more invasive injuries, such as high temperature, radiation, poison gas, etc.

With such protective capabilities, it is consistent with his original intention of having a set of personal protective equipment.

Moving his eyes upwards, Wei Jiang discovered that not only his lower limb armor had become thicker, but his arms and hands had also become stronger, making Wei Jiang feel that he could now shatter a steel plate with one punch.

The palm of the armor is several sizes larger than Wei Jiang's own palm. When it is opened, Wei Jiang is sure that the palm is bigger than his head.

Click!

The palms of the hands were clenched tightly, and sparks even flew when the five fingers rubbed together.

"Oh my god, who can withstand this?"

With his other hand on the ground, Wei Jiang tried to stand up straight in excitement.

He now feels like he can even slay a dragon!
But in today's society, his idea is doomed to fail.

Can defend and attack, ever since the Dark Star was strengthened for the first time, Wei Jiang began to like this fist-to-flesh fighting style.

If you want to be Wei Jiang’s enemy, you’d better take a punch first.

One punch is not enough, hit me again!
boom!
There was a noise above his head. Wei Jiang bent over and tilted his head to look up. He found that the manta ray cockpit, which used to allow him to stand up straight, now could not allow him to fully stretch his body.

Just now was the sound of the armor helmet hitting the top of the cockpit.

Looking at the manta ray cockpit cover above his head, Wei Jiang tried to recall the altitude inside the cockpit in his mind.

"Shit! I can't be taller than two meters in the armor?"

Wei Jiang was amazed when he thought about the fact that the cockpit of the Manta Ray was nearly two meters high.

He is 1 meters tall, which is not considered short in real life, but he never thought that he could move at a height of 78 meters.

In the past, when he saw peers who were close to 1 meters tall, he would stand far away from them. Standing next to those people, he himself was like a child.

"Okay, okay, the code name Tyrant is not for nothing."

It was really uncomfortable to bend over, so Wei Jiang turned around and sat back in the driver's seat.

The metal palm patted the outer armor of the battle suit on the chest, which looked like Western armor, making a banging sound.

Wei Jiang's body inside the armor only felt a slight tremor, which meant that the armor could offset some of the kinetic energy of the impact.

"I really want to open it and see what it looks like inside?"

Wei Jiang was of course curious about the changes that had taken place inside the armor, as he had just obtained micro-mechanical technology from the panel.

Thinking about the unfinished battle suit he had made, he now felt it was rubbish.

It stands to reason that after obtaining a powerful piece of equipment, one should find a place to try it out. However, no matter how excited one is, physical fatigue cannot be relieved in an instant.

"Hey, wait a minute."

"Red Star, where are we? I need to get some sleep."

From the red dot on the electronic map on the cockpit screen, Wei Jiang knew clearly that the manta ray had now entered the Dongdanei River and was now heading towards the waters near his home.

"Commander, the electric car is waiting for you at the designated location."

"There is another thing you need to understand."

Wei Jiang closed his eyes slightly and tried to relax his body as much as possible.

"Just say it."

His indifference was broken by the excitement of what Hongxing told him.

"Two hours ago, two unidentified persons sneaked into the village below and entered your home."

"what?!"

"Red Star!"

Wei Jiang's emotions were instantly ignited!
Uncontrollable anger!
He was surprised that Hongxing didn't inform him immediately about such a big thing.

"Why didn't you notify me in time?!"

"What if my father is in danger?"

"Can you take responsibility?!"

Wei Jiang's rage did not affect Hong Xing's tone when answering, which remained sweet and peaceful.

"Commander, please rest assured."

"The two intruders have been killed."

"I didn't tell you earlier because I didn't want to interfere with what you were doing, which was difficult for me to understand."

"Please rest assured that your father is resting well and is not affected in any way."

After Hong Xing finished explaining, Wei Jiang's anger subsided a little.

Strengthening the relationship with Dark Star is a big deal, but for him, the safety of his father’s personality is more important!

But he knew that this was not the time to blame Red Star.

"Just two of you? No other accomplices?"

"No, after I shot and killed these two people, I searched all the surveillance cameras in South City and didn't see any of their accomplices."

"These two people came here temporarily from a neighboring city, just when you flew out of the sea on the manta ray."

His brows were furrowed, and his armored hands were clenched together. There were constant crackling sounds, and sparks were emitted from time to time.

It can be seen that Wei Jiang is not calm at the moment.

Someone was staring at him, and as soon as he left, the other person sneaked into his house.

Father Wei Yonghe, the other party’s target is his father!
Fortunately, there is the Red Star, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

It might be too late for him to rush back!
"Thank you, Red Star. You did a great job."

The sweet female voice continues. As an artificial intelligence, Red Star is not swayed by emotions.

"This is my mission, Commander."

Although the current crisis has been resolved, the danger hidden behind it is like a dark abyss. Wei Jiang dare not relax even a bit.

"Do your best to investigate where these two people came from!"

"The two bodies are still at home, wait for me to come back."

"I want to see who dares to enter my house!"

"Some people are so brave! They can't wait to die."

"Hurry up, I want to go back!"
