Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

"There's actually such a thing?" Reiko Kashiwamura asked, somewhat surprised.

"Yes." Shen Yun nodded and explained, "This piece of artificial beef, after being supplied with a large amount of electricity, has developed biological instincts. It will actively absorb electricity and will even fight back when it encounters danger. I originally planned to dispose of this piece of artificial meat, but now that the mecha is completed, it's a good opportunity to let the mecha dispose of this piece of artificial meat and conduct a practical test at the same time."

Although this piece of artificial beef may not necessarily develop consciousness and become the Abron monster.

But wouldn't it be better to nip danger in the bud before it even arises?

"In that case, does that mean all these proposals related to Ebloon cells have to be stopped?" Upon hearing this, Reiko Kashiwamura immediately turned her gaze to Shen Yun and couldn't help but ask with concern.

"No need for that. Although the Ebron cell prototype is dangerous, the Ebron cells I modified are very stable. As of now, there are no problems." Shen Yun shook his head and chuckled.

While Ebron Cell Prototype is powerful, it's not bad either.

His modified electro-limited Ebloon cells are quite stable and have not shown any abnormalities to date.

However, every advantage has its disadvantages. Compared to artificial meat made from Ebron cells, this bioelectric wire made from Ebron cells does not have the ability to continuously proliferate. Cultivating such a bioelectric wire still requires a lot of resources.

Of course, compared to electrical wires of the same length, the cost of these bio-electric wires is even lower.

Once space-based power generation becomes widespread, the price will be even lower.

After all, bioelectric wires only require animal stem cells, power-limited Ebloon cells, culture medium, and some electricity to grow bioelectric wires over a long distance.

The mice that were fed artificial beef are still alive and well, without any problems.

Aside from occasional diarrhea, even his body has become a bit stronger.

In other words, neither of his two ideas actually had any major problems.

Once he can confirm that it is completely safe, it can be rolled out nationwide.

"Really? That's good." Reiko Kashiwamura was relieved to hear this and smiled, "I'll inform Team Leader Lina right now."

With that, Reiko Kashiwamura took out the PDI and contacted the command center:

"Team member Lina, please come to the hangar immediately. We have a mission for you."

Soon, Lina arrived at the hangar and asked, "Chief, what's the mission?"

"We'll conduct a real-world test of this Saber Athena," Shen Yun said.

"Huh?" Lina was taken aback at first, then asked with delight, "The mech is already finished?"

"Yes, after Dr. Shen's personal testing, it has been confirmed that this mecha can be deployed in actual combat," Reiko Kashiwamura nodded and explained with a smile.

"Although Lina performed very well in the simulated piloting, there is still a difference between the actual training ground and the simulation operation." Shen Yun continued, explaining, "The purpose of this practical test is to help you adapt to the actual operation of the mecha as soon as possible and deal with monsters or aliens that may appear at any time."

"So who's my opponent? Is it a monster? But it seems like no monsters have appeared lately, right?" Lina asked excitedly.

"Well, that's about right. You'll see when the time comes." Shen Yun's expression was somewhat subtle.

He couldn't bring himself to say something as absurd as "your opponent is a piece of artificial beef."

"Okay..." Lina said, and didn't ask any more questions.

However, the anticipation in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

Watching Lina change into her pilot's suit and enter the cockpit, Shen Yun sat at the control panel and began operating the controls.

"Reading brainwave data."

A holographic image of a virtual brain appeared on the console.

"Neuron docking initiated."

On the holographic projection, two-dimensional images of the mecha and the human body appeared, and the two-dimensional images of the mecha and the human body slowly overlapped.

Lina, inside the cockpit, also felt a heavy pressure.

However, this pressure is not a problem for her; she can handle it.

"Transport aircraft, please proceed to the designated location," Shen Yun said again.

Inside the TPC hangar, four transport planes took off and quickly arrived at their designated locations.

"Headquarters, we have arrived at the designated location."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yun immediately activated the mobile platform beneath Saber Athena's feet, transporting her to the TPC exit. Then, four transport planes already in position outside hoisted the mecha warrior to the destination for the combat test.

Naturally, Sawai, Yoshioka, and others were notified of the mecha's combat testing.

"The mecha's combat test? I understand, I'll go watch it. I'm also very curious to see how powerful Dr. Shen's mecha will be." Sawai nodded with a smile, her words filled with anticipation.

As the leader of the hawkish faction, Director Yoshioka has always been very concerned about the mecha.

Without Shen Yun having to say anything more, he laughed heartily and agreed.

As for the Victory Team, although they cannot leave the base, they can still watch the live broadcast from the command center.

The location for this live-fire test was a small island in the Pacific Ocean.

Four transport planes carried the mech warrior to the island and then retrieved the ropes that were attached to Saber Athena.

Lina looked around and, finding no opponent, breathed a small sigh of relief.

Although she has done a lot of driving simulations in the past few months, at least several thousand times.

However, there are still significant differences between simulated driving and real mech piloting, and she needs some time to adapt.

If she were to face a monster right away, even with her simulated win rate of around 60%, she wouldn't be very confident of defeating an unknown monster.

After all, the number of monsters and aliens included in the mecha simulator cockpit so far is only thirteen.

Therefore, she wanted to familiarize herself with the operation of the mecha before her opponent appeared, so that she would be more confident during the actual combat test later.

So Lina carefully began to maneuver the Saber Athena.

After a brief activity, Lina discovered that the operation method of this mecha seemed to be no different from that of the operation method in the simulator cockpit.

Having realized this, Lina became bolder in her actions.

Lina lived up to her reputation as the ace pilot of the Victory Team. After a period of adaptation, she applied her experience from simulator piloting to mech piloting.

Her face was full of excitement; this feeling of being one with the machine made her feel like she had become a giant.

Before long, four transport planes arrived at the uninhabited island, carrying a huge alloy box.

Then, the alloy box opened, and a huge, irregularly shaped, grayish-black object landed on the island.

When Lina saw the irregular, grayish-black object clearly, she felt a chill run down her spine.

"Ugh, what is this? It's disgusting!" Lina's delicate features immediately scrunched up.

Without bones, its body couldn't support itself, making it look like a puddle of mud.

Its entire body was covered in grayish-black scales, with gray keratin of varying lengths growing on its body. Seven or eight tentacles floated on its body, making it look extremely eerie.

"Team Leader Lina, this is an Ebloon monster driven only by biological instincts. It will only retaliate if attacked. This Ebloon monster is not very strong. The purpose of this combat test is mainly to test the mechs' ability to deal with monsters. Please follow instructions." Shen Yun's gentle voice came into the cockpit.

"Understood!" Lina's eyes narrowed, and she started running.

Saber Athena also took a step forward and charged towards the Ebloon monster.
