Chapter 509 Core
However, although everyone praised the blueprint, when it came to actually manufacturing it, they all felt worried.
It's too hard... It's too hard!
When the project started, and when everyone began to truly understand and analyze the diagram, they discovered how difficult it was.
It's incomprehensible, completely incomprehensible. Even the most skilled craftsmen would be completely baffled when they first saw this blueprint, not knowing where to begin.
Fortunately, the creator of the blueprints is still alive. As the one who brought out the blueprints, the Iron Ball God naturally couldn't just leave everything alone after taking them out.
Therefore, under the guidance of the Iron Ball God, the project of this nation-destroying mech finally made progress, and this research and development took decades, nearly a century.
For decades, countless craftsmen have devoted themselves to this project, and thanks to their efforts, it is now more than halfway complete.
Everyone was very happy, after all, this was the result of their decades of research, and like their child, it was finally about to be born, so naturally they were very happy.
But! The further we went, the more difficult this project became.
They have basically completed the body of the mecha. Although many things are not exactly as shown in the blueprints, they have managed to piece it together to a near-perfect state.
Even now, the energy problem remains their biggest challenge.
After all, they weren't building iron boxes, but mechs, and mechs need energy to power them.
But how much energy is needed to power an ultimate mech that is hundreds of meters long and make it move?
We can't possibly use the entire nation's resources to build this mech, only for it to shut down after taking a couple of steps, that would be ridiculous!
Therefore, this has become the biggest problem for the craftsmen: finding an energy source that can power the mechs.
However, not just anything can serve as this energy source; after all, factors such as cost-effectiveness, adaptability, and utilization rate must be considered.
In short, this energy source was giving them a huge headache. However! There's always a way out. Just when they were at their wits' end, the Iron Ball God suddenly brought them some good news.
A special kind of energy has come to the attention of everyone.
The Iron Ball God called it "the power of will"!
Willpower is a kind of energy that no one has ever seen before. When they used it, they found that this energy was incredibly powerful. Its storage, internal circulation, and utilization efficiency far exceeded any energy source they currently used.
This is a true treasure. When people saw it, they were just as shocked as when they saw the mech that destroyed the country. At the same time, it was very puzzling how such a magical energy source suddenly appeared.
They might believe you if you said there were blueprints, after all, Lord Iron Ball is a god who must have lived for a very long time, and these blueprints might have been passed down from ancient times.
But how could this energy possibly be generated out of thin air? That's just too far-fetched.
However, since the Iron Ball God didn't say anything, no one dared to delve into it further; they simply buried themselves in their research.
The energy problem has been solved, but the mecha has not been produced quickly. After all, various facilities still need to be improved and finalized, so people are still busy.
They seemed to foresee that the mechs would be created in their generation, and that with these terrifying mechs, their Gear Nation would become the most powerful being in the world.
This meeting also discussed these issues. Now that we've reached the final stage, everyone is very nervous. Although compared to before, there are only a few minor problems left, they still require a lot of effort from them.
As a result, researchers including Ryan were constantly frowning, with weekly small meetings and a monthly large meeting, which made them feel like they were going to throw up from all the meetings.
However, they were always quite responsible at each meeting; for example, right now, the researchers were arguing:
"It still won't work. Although we have an outer shell and an energy source, we need to use it for combat. At this point, the mechanical core's resilience will inevitably be tested."
"But with the current level of core completion, can it really support large-scale battles?"
The words of an old craftsman struck a chord with everyone, silencing them all. They were all veteran craftsmen and naturally understood the importance of the core.
Every mech needs a core to drive it, and this mech is no exception. Moreover, the core of this mech is extremely complex, and even with the help of the Iron Ball God, they have been unable to conquer it for a long time.
After all, they couldn't find any of the materials listed above.
In the end, they could only cobble together a Pinduoduo-style core. This core could make the mech move without any problem, but combat and action were two different things.
When walking, you only need to consider the core power supply. If the core is not working well, you can simply reduce the power and slow down the movement.
However, there are many more things to consider in combat, such as power supply, machine repair, internal circulation, combat balance, and so on!
It can be said that only in battle can the true capabilities of a core component be tested.
Clearly, their basic version isn't enough to do that right now!
They might be able to get into small-scale battles, but what they're going to fight is a war of annihilation, a war against the world's top powerhouses.
Therefore, the other parts of the mech are basically fine, but the core...
Just when everyone was at a loss, the secretary-general, who had been observing from the sidelines, suddenly spoke up:
"The core problem has already been solved by the divine being!"
These words shocked everyone, as this was no easy problem to solve. They had consulted the gods before, and even they were helpless. How could this be...?
There was no point in saying more. The secretary-general ordered his attendant to bring up a core model. Then, he looked at another attendant, who immediately brought out a box.
No one knew what was in the box, only that when the secretary-general held it in his hand, the box trembled violently, as if it were imprisoning some living creature.
The secretary-general held a box in one hand and the core model in the other. To everyone's astonishment, the two quickly merged into a single core entity.
Compared to before, the core hasn't changed much in size, but it has a few more whisker lines on its exterior, and the entire iron ball is stained with a strange red color, seemingly shimmering with scales.
Moreover, after the fusion, the core even began to tremble slightly, as if it had come to life, as if it were not a mechanical core, but a real heart!
How is this going?
