Chapter 88 Robbery(1/2)
Chapter 88: Robbing people
The parts were found by Fatty in a corner of the trading network.
This part marked as a magnetometer was designed and manufactured by a studio called Black Devil. It looks dark and inconspicuous in the all-round display on the virtual screen, but the price tag is as high as 130,000 Fiji dollars. From the Internet to the present
, it has been a year and not a single one has been sold.
This is a normal thing in the free world.
You must know that the free world is a world without laws that relies on natural laws for survival of the fittest and relies on the balance of forces and tacit understanding as social rules. In this world, there are countless genius scientists and mechanical masters, as well as countless liars.
Turning stone into gold, turning water into oil, these ancient scams are just a different way of existing in this world. Spend hundreds of thousands of Fiji dollars to give you a piece of junk that can be bought for a few hundred dollars.
It's so normal here.
Scammers need to be identified, and those scientists are not very reliable either.
The minds of these madmen are unreasonable. They conduct research entirely according to their own interests, and their inventions are probably worthless junk!
In the free world, there is a widely circulated story that explains everything.
A hundred years ago, a well-known mechanical master, together with several materials experts, spent ten years developing a structural diagram of a mecha robot arm that was said to be indestructible.
Due to the confidentiality of the technology, this drawing was not made public. In the end, after fierce competition, it was bought by a giant mecha manufacturing company at a huge sum of money. It was based on the reputation of the mechanical master and those experts!
But when he went back and opened it, the business owner had a heart attack on the spot. The drawings were real, and mechanical masters and experts had indeed spent ten years on research. However, the cost of manufacturing a robotic arm was enough.
A giant company went bankrupt!
Tens of thousands of materials were synthesized. Thousands of fusion formulas, component analysis, detailed procedures for synthesis steps, and so on. The master's research could be said to have reached the pinnacle of mechanical materials science at that time. But to the enterprise, this thing was completely useless.
!
It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. In the end, the company gained considerable technological accumulation due to the master's research data, and used some of the technologies to complete several technological innovations. After spending huge purchase costs, it continued to invest in research for nearly ten years.
After that, these things were really put to use. During this period, the company almost collapsed.
Therefore, in the free world, there are countless horses and toads, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false. If you don’t have enough professional vision, if you want to find treasures here, the final outcome will probably be very aggrieved.
Speaking of Black Devil Studio, it is somewhat famous among the countless research laboratories and studios in the free world. The reason is not that this studio has invented anything great, but that this studio is more famous than other lunatics.
Weird personality!
In this small studio of twenty people, led by the famous machinist Casimir Belch, if you pick anyone out at random, they are all genius scientists in a certain field. However, a more accurate description is - a group of eccentric people.
Frankenstein.
The reason why these people come to the free world is because here, no one will care about any of their weird, ridiculous, and horrific research! They can obtain a large amount of funds through bounty research and buy any materials they want.
Countless lunatics like them are free to do any experiments they can't do in mainstream human society!
Therefore, this studio is usually defined as a research institution by buyers. Except for projects that require them to pay for targeted research, few people dare to think about the things they come up with.
It would not be surprising if no one asked about this magnetometer for a hundred years, let alone a year. Moreover, it was simply a semi-finished product. The purpose of putting this magnetometer on the trading network was not to sell it. It was to seek information.
Collaborators who can further solve difficult problems and improve the research.
Fatty didn't know that this magnetometer was just an idea that Belch suddenly came up with due to the material properties after a certain experiment. He wanted to miniaturize the ship's reaction force engine. At that time, the purpose of his research was not clear at all. The only one
The general direction is only used for civilian purposes similar to adventurers exploring the mecha for underground exploration or other narrow space operations.
In the eyes of others, this thing is nothing. However, in the eyes of the fat man who has the Casper log and is a mechanic with rich war experience, once this thing is developed, it will definitely be a treasure!
A priceless treasure of mecha martial arts!
The fat man's eyes were like a weasel that had seen a hen, flashing with a green light. He knew that, without exaggeration, with this thing, the mecha warriors under his command could compete with those equipped with ten or even eleven generations of equipment.
The superpowers of mechas compete!
The function of a magnetometer is very simple, that is, it produces repulsive and attractive forces.
Ordinary people don't care about these two most common powers, but in the mecha martial arts mastered by Fatty, the generation of these two powers is like an external master gaining internal strength!
Think about what role any transformed repulsive or attractive force will play in a mecha battle. If two mechas fight, a mecha with skilled control skills, with the help of a magnetometer, will
Can deploy a force field outside the mecha!
This force field generates a repulsive force to the ground or behind, which can make the mecha rush and soar faster, and generates attraction, which can make the mecha fall or dodge faster. During the fight, this force field
Not only can it use the speed of the opponent's mecha to increase the combat effectiveness of its own, it can also block the opponent's attacks and slow down the opponent's speed.
On the ever-changing battlefield, a slight change in force can affect life or death!
What's more important is that the two forces that are constantly switching can produce a round force like Tai Chi.
Push with one hand, lead with the other, thousands of moves in a row!
Falling into this kind of force field, the opponent's mecha will feel that the engine power suddenly increases and decreases, and the mecha's movements become faster and slower, completely out of its control.
Fortunately, this thing is not finished yet!
Fatty quickly opened the communication channel and sent a transaction communication request to Black Devil Studio. He was determined to control this thing in his own hands! Only he could solve the problems Black Devil Studio encountered in research!
Inside the Black Devil's Studio.
Belch, who has black genes and is already fifty-five years old, let out a long sigh.
Twenty colleagues who have been together day and night for many years, more than thirty researchers, and more than sixty staff members have all gathered in the studio lobby at this moment.
There are one or two suitcases placed at each person's feet. Inside, they are being saluted.
Although very reluctant, the Black Devil Studio can only end here! The Freeport of Mars is no longer the paradise of these Frankenstein people. It has been occupied by war and killing. No matter how much you have in your hands, you are reluctant to part with it.
Research work, now I can only choose to leave. Otherwise, I am afraid I will never have the opportunity to do research in this life.
Belch's sad eyes slid over the faces of the twenty companions one by one. They are all the most genius scientists in the world, and they are also the most unpopular and unpopular lunatics. Only here can they burst out their genius.
A spark of thought. But back to the mainstream human society, they are just like the walking zombies like themselves!
Moreover, more than half of them are wanted by governments of various countries! Even I was forced to live in Mars Freeport because of the crime of revenge murder in the Leray Federation. Not to mention that Leray is currently at war.
Even in peacetime, I can't go back.
Looking back at the empty studio, Belch could never say goodbye. He really couldn't bear to leave. Once these people dispersed, things would have changed when they wanted to meet again. The unfinished research of the Black Devil will be
Eternal pain in my life!
This damn war!
A young female researcher finally couldn't help crying. Girls always have the right to be sad in front of everyone.
She couldn't bear to leave, and she didn't know where she could go if she left here.
Not only her, but everyone in the studio was confused.
However, Black Devil Studio can no longer stay. Just yesterday, this building was hit by several rockets. The windows facing the street were also hit by explosions and strafing bullets. Both sides of the block
The armed forces engaged in the exchange of fire almost regarded this place as the center of the battlefield.
Moreover, the armed force that now controls this area is itself a gangster that commits robbery and murder. If it hadn't been for spending a lot of money to pay for their lives, the owners of the studio would have been shot by those guys.
Revenant. Now, they have issued an ultimatum to leave within a time limit. Except for their personal clothes, they are not allowed to take away all the financial equipment and equipment of the studio!
This is already an act of mercy outside the law.
Thinking of the Scarface who led the team to the studio a few days ago, Belch couldn't help but shudder. Fortunately, he contacted a merchant ship that was going to the Northern Channel No. 1069 space station. If he missed this opportunity, that Yin
A ruthless guy will definitely make everyone in the studio disappear.
After looking at his watch, Belch gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Let's go..."
Before he finished speaking, the central computer communicator of Black Devil Studio suddenly beeped. Someone requested transaction communication.
Belch smiled bitterly, at this time, what else is there to trade?!
"Wait!" The crying female researcher quickly ran to the central computer and connected the video phone.
A special encrypted communication channel for Trading Network?
The Frankensteins suddenly became interested, and there was nothing wrong with just making a phone call before leaving.
A fat, white guy with a big head and big ears appeared on the virtual screen. On his face, which was so honest that people couldn't be wary of it, there was a sweet and kind smile.
"Who are you?" Belch felt that the fat man looked familiar.
"Well, that's it..." The fat man rubbed his hands and said in the most harmless manner: "I want to buy your magnetometer, including everything including the drawings and all the data."
"Magnetometer?" Belch was stunned for a moment, and then quickly remembered the research project that he had suddenly thought of organizing everyone to work on for nearly three months a year ago, but failed to finally complete it. He said confusedly: "It's just a semi-finished product.
Are you sure you want it?"
"Of course I'm sure." Fatty's usual vanity popped up again: "Isn't it just a few node issues and material commonality issues? These are all trivial. Although the issue of coordinating with the engine is a bit difficult, for me, it's still a problem.
Nothing."
"What did you say?" Belch simply couldn't believe his ears, and his black face covered with gray beard suddenly darkened. Before he could continue to speak, there was a commotion around him.
"Fart! Small problem?"
"At first glance, he looks like a boastful idiot!"
"No one dares to say that anything I, Haig, can't figure out is possible in front of me!"
A group of Frankensteins whose self-esteem was greatly provoked suddenly jumped up and talked with anger.
To be continued...
