As long as it can fight, withstand attacks, and move, that's fine.

Given such simple design requirements, the design solution proposed by the Ocean Academy was also very simple and straightforward in order to complete the task quickly.

Based on research data on the spring mechanism of the tracked chassis from the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, their design fully meets the above three requirements, and has no other features.

There were no fire control computers, electronic sights, or other equipment; everything relied on eyesight, and operations such as locking and firing were all done manually.

The good thing about the past was that, thanks to their relatively advanced electrical equipment and mechanical design capabilities, their turrets used the electric drive that Dr. Porsche had dreamed of, and they also designed a vertical stabilizer in conjunction with the technology of the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences.

It is precisely this simple structure that enabled them to complete the design work in such a short time.

Incongruous with its overly simple design are a superconducting motor with a total output of 2000 horsepower and an electric cannon, all based on superconductors and high-energy batteries.

The design concept was at the level of the early Cold War, and the actual product resembled the appearance of a "water tank" when it first appeared, but the weaponry was at the level of near-future science fiction.

This thing is incredibly powerful, but other than that, it's hard to describe in a few words.

It can only be said that it has a huge effect in the current specific battlefield environment.

"In short, for safety reasons, I don't recommend that you get too far forward."

"I know, I know, I'll stay put in the back."

Mona had already decided to stay in a safe place and follow orders as soon as she learned about the existence of such a weapon that could reach Mach 12.

only……

Mona glanced at Beidou with suspicion.

Why has Captain Beidou never mentioned such a weapon?

Captain Beidou even boasted that she had nothing to worry about. With such a fast weapon, could she really handle it?

Isn't Captain Beidou's strength a bit too terrifying?!

Mona's gaze toward Beidou gradually shifted from suspicion to terror.

Beidou noticed Mona's gaze and, seeing the change in her expression, had already roughly guessed what Mona was thinking.

How could I have forgotten that the pace of development here is abnormal?

What are you bragging about!

"Ahem, well, it's been a while since I've been here. I'll go and look around the island first. You guys chat first, I'll take the brothers for a stroll. It's been a long time since we've had any fresh food."

"Oh, please go ahead."

Jiang Ming and Mona watched as Beidou led Chongzuo and his group away quickly.

At the dock, busy workers and machines were everywhere, but only Mona was left by Jiang Ming's side.

The area around them was relatively open.

“Miss Mona, your master’s friend has already specifically reminded me to take care of you and explained the general purpose of your visit. I have other matters to attend to later, so please ask any questions you may have.”

Mona hesitated; she had too many questions and didn't know where to begin.

After thinking about it, I chose a topic that would be easy to discuss.

"Um... do you know anything about astrology?"

"I know a little about it; it's a very amazing technology."

"Unfortunately, it doesn't work at all for you."

“I have heard about it and I am deeply sorry about it. However, I am not clear about the reason. If you want to find out more, you will probably have to find the answer yourself. We will do our best to provide some assistance.”

"Is that so?"

Mona swallowed all her questions at this moment.

The same applies to other questions; she needs to find the answers herself.

It's already quite good that we can get some convenience.

In that case, there's only one question left to ask.

"What does your flag, these symbols, mean?"

Mona pointed to the flags fluttering in the air not far from the dock, then her gaze fell on a badge pinned to Jiang Ming's collar.

It's exactly the same as what the old woman sent him to investigate.

"You mean this?"

Jiang Ming followed Mona's direction and gaze.

"As you can see, this is a sign."

What does it signify?

"One political party, one ideology."

"Is this... something similar to a faction?"

"There are still significant differences, but explaining the details would be too complicated. You can go to our library or college to learn more."

"Huh? You have a library and an academy here?"

This was an unexpected surprise for Mona.

Before she came, she had heard that this place was dirt poor, and she thought there wouldn't be any educational institutions here at all.

In particular, there are no similar facilities like libraries in the entire Inazuma area.

Since there are libraries and colleges where knowledge is concentrated, wouldn't that make it easier for her to learn?

She's the greatest astrologer! Reading and studying are a piece of cake for her, aren't they?

The real problem is that there are no learning channels at all.

“We didn’t have this before, but we set up this venue as we need to develop.”

"As for the library, its contents are not very complete. The main sources are the databases of the two academies. For the natural sciences section, most of the information requires authorization to access. The rest are mostly literary works and some sociological materials, which can be viewed freely. The academies are similar."

"However, since it's you..."

Jiang Ming thought about it for a moment.

"I'll give you temporary A-level access, which is enough for you to access most information. However, there's no knowledge about astrology in it; that's our blind spot."

"enough!"

Mona excitedly agreed.

Chapter 169 Steel Behemoth

"Buzz~~"

"Hmm? What's the sound?"

On the battlefield of the shogunate army, soldiers who were eating rice balls suddenly heard a series of sharp, continuous sounds.

It was sharp, but not very loud.

"what happened?"

The people looked at each other, all with bewildered expressions.

"Ding ding ding ding..."

Beside it, the water cups placed on the wooden board began to vibrate, and the cups and the wooden board kept knocking and making noise.

The surface of the water in the cup was not calm either.

"earthquake?"

This is the first possibility that comes to mind.

Inazuma is an island nation that has experienced frequent earthquakes over the years, which is why it has developed unique wooden houses. After so many years of peace without any major incidents, it seems normal for an earthquake to occur recently.

The tremor wasn't strong and didn't seem to be very large; it'll probably stop on its own soon.

Just to be on the safe side, they decided to call the people inside the tunnel up.

However, the moment they took action, the sound seemed to suddenly increase in volume.

Moreover, they can pinpoint the source of the sound.

The shogunate soldiers looked up at the hillside not far away with puzzled expressions.

To everyone's astonishment, a colossal steel beast leaped out from behind the hillside.

It literally took off, fully armored and packed with batteries, weighing over seventy tons, and propelled by a two-thousand-horsepower superconducting motor, using the small hill as a springboard for a ski-jump takeoff.

Then, it slammed heavily onto the ground.

The soldiers of the shogunate army felt the ground beneath their feet tremble.

"This...this is..."

They stared blankly at the enormous creature before them, completely at a loss.

However, the Sea God Army wouldn't wait for their reaction.

This was a counterattack that Haizhi Island had been preparing for a long time, and it was also the first time that tanks, such heavily armored units, had been used.

This was completed by those comrades who possess the Eye of God, along with a group of workers, working tirelessly for several days and nights. The quantity is limited, making it extremely precious.

Now, all these tanks are being supplied to our elite force to break through the enemy's defenses. We must perform well to live up to the expectations of those working overtime in the rear!

"I see them at one o'clock. That's the enemy's barrier's power battery, and there's an elemental cannon behind it. Take them both out!" The commander held up the walkie-talkie and began issuing combat orders to the crew.

"Roger that!"

Besides the commander, there were the driver, gunner, and loader. At this moment, they all began to act hurriedly according to orders.

Previously, we had only gone through a few simulations, which were completely different from the real environment we were in now.

This was their first time operating a tank in real combat, and it's no exaggeration to say that they were quite remarkable to have driven it safely without overturning, crashing, or falling into the river while crossing a bridge.

It emphasizes the feeling of a makeshift troupe putting on a show.

Under the gunner's control, the turret slowly turned.
