Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

"Saber Athena, activate!"

"Buzz!"

The muffled sound of the nuclear reactor inside Saber Athena's chest being ignited was audible even to Shen Yun, who was in the cockpit.

Once the reactor is ignited, a continuous stream of energy is supplied to the entire mech.

The biological tissues hidden beneath the Saber Athena armor thirstily absorbed the vast amounts of energy supplied by the nuclear reactor and fed it back to the Saber Athena's outer armor.

Although the appearance remains largely unchanged, the hardness of the external armor has reached the same level as that of Ligardron.

Shen Yun looked at the holographic projection on the control panel and said, "Karen, read the brainwave data and activate the neuronal connection."

"Leave it to me," Karen's energetic voice came into the cockpit.

The computer inside the mecha cockpit has been incorporated into Kallen's distributed neural network. She can operate the computer remotely via the network and can even "see" Shen Yun in the cockpit through the computer.

The computer in the cockpit read Shen Yun's brainwave data through the spinal cord clip and created a virtual brain consciousness that was connected to the mecha.

"Neural connections are initiated."

The moment the neuronal connection was activated, Shen Yun felt a surge of pressure.

This is an invisible pressure, as if it acts directly on the mind.

However, the mental pressure was much less than he had imagined.

"Could it be because I replaced part of the mechanical structure with Ligadron's biological tissue?" Shen Yun guessed.

"Dr. Shen, how are you feeling?" Reiko Kashiwamura's voice came from inside the cockpit.

"Fortunately, the pressure is still within the range that ordinary people can bear. Lina is the ace pilot of the Victory Team, so this amount of pressure should not be a problem for her," Shen Yun replied.

"That's good, let's continue the test." Reiko Kashiwamura breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Dr. Shen, please control the mecha's joints."

This test, in addition to assessing the safety of the connection between the human and the mecha, also included testing various aspects of the mecha.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yun raised both hands and clashed his clenched left fist against his right palm.

Saber Athena made the same movement simultaneously, colliding her left fist with her right palm, producing a deafening metallic roar. A violent force emanated from the center of the collision, causing the clothes of the surrounding maintenance crew members to flutter wildly.

In a casual tribute to the original work, Shen Yun controlled the Saber Athena to move the joints of the mecha.

Saber Athena's movements were not slow at all; on the contrary, they were quite agile, just like those of a normal person.

Moreover, the mecha's movements were completely synchronized with Shen Yun's, without any delay.

This feeling of complete control is like having a second body.

"The next test will be conducted outside the base," said Reiko Kashiwamura.

"Understood." Shen Yun nodded.

The alloy platform beneath Saber Athena's feet lifts her upwards.

Soon, the upward movement stopped.

Then, the outer wall of the base slowly opened, and the exit to the outside world appeared before Shen Yun.

The platform beneath Saber Athena's feet began to slide forward again, sending Saber Athena out of the base.

Looking at the shimmering, deep blue seawater in front of him, Shen Yun lifted his leg and took a step forward.

Athena, with her saber, also lifted her leg, took a step forward, and entered the seawater.

"Splash!"

The once calm sea surface was suddenly churned into towering waves as Athena the Saber entered the water.

The TPC base is located near the sea off the Boso Peninsula, where the water, which is several tens of meters deep, only reaches the waist of the mechs.

"Dr. Shen, please control the mecha to conduct a walking test," said Reiko Kashiwamura.

"I understand." Shen Yun nodded and steered the Athena Saber forward.

Because of the change in materials and core, although they look almost the same, this Saber Athena weighs tens of thousands of tons.

Shen Yun controlled the Athena Saber and walked faster and faster until he was almost running.

Every step Athena takes causes a tremor in the seabed.

The enormous mechs also raced wildly through the sea, churning the calm surface into chaos and creating towering waves.

Shen Yun had piloted many mechs, but this was the first time he had experienced such a seamless human-machine integration. .

Sure enough, the mechs with motion controls are the most exciting.

However, despite having fun, Shen Yun did not forget his purpose in piloting the mecha.

Following instructions from the central control room, Shen Yun piloted the mecha and conducted various tests.

After multiple tests, the Saber Athena has no problems and is ready for actual combat.

After the test, Shen Yun piloted the Saber Athena back to the hangar.

As soon as Shen Yun stepped out of the cockpit, the TPC medical staff immediately began examining his body with various diagnostic instruments.

After various examinations confirmed that Shen Yun was in good health, the medical staff finally allowed her to leave.

Shen Yun put on his clothes, returned to the control room, looked at Reiko Kashiwamura, and asked, "Director Kashiwamura, what were the test results?"

"The test results far exceeded expectations. The performance is excellent and it can be fully deployed in actual combat." Reiko Kashiwamura looked at the data from the various tests with a delighted expression.

"That's good." Shen Yun smiled slightly and said, "Notify Lina to prepare for the combat test."

"A practical test? But no monsters have appeared yet, how can we conduct a practical test?"

"Monsters, huh? Actually, they do exist." Shen Yun smiled, looked at Reiko Kashiwamura, and asked:

"Director Baicun, you must have seen the several Aibolon cell utilization protocols I proposed, right?"

"I've read it. Dr. Shen, your ideas are truly imaginative and amazing," Reiko Kashiwamura exclaimed.

As the director of the TPC Science Bureau, she had naturally read Shen Yun's proposal.

She truly hadn't expected that Ebron cells could be used in this way.

"But what's with this monster?" Reiko Kashiwamura asked, puzzled.

"More than two months ago, I transplanted the Ebron cell prototype into a piece of artificial beef and supplied it with a large amount of electricity to absorb it. Currently, this piece of artificial beef has undergone tremendous changes and is showing signs of turning into a monster."

Although Shen Yun has been busy assembling mechs these days, he has never stopped conducting various experiments on Ebron cells.

For example, the artificial beef that was transplanted with Ebron cells.

That piece of artificial beef was moved away from the TPC base two months ago.

Because Shen Yun's research institute was too small, it could no longer store the continuously multiplying artificial beef.

This piece of artificial beef, transplanted with Ebron cells, has now transformed into a giant ball of flesh covered in gray-black scales under the influence of the Ebron cells. Many tentacles have also grown on this ball of flesh to draw electricity.

To be honest, the changes in this piece of artificial beef surprised even Shen Yun.

What's even more surprising is that this artificial beef actually developed biological-like instincts.

When the side effects of Ebloon cells occur, they instinctively draw electricity, and when attacked, they also instinctively retaliate.

If this artificial beef hadn't lacked its own consciousness, this lump of flesh would have long since become the Abron monster.

If this continues, this piece of artificial beef might develop its own consciousness and turn into a monster.

Shen Yun was convinced; these Ebloon cells were truly potent. Even a piece of artificial meat could turn you into a monster.
