My Apocalypse Fortress Vehicle - 379.New car, new atmosphere
The first step in modification is to connect the front end of the truck and the truck bed. Then, various weapons were installed on the front and compartment of the car to reinforce it, making its armor strength even better than that of the Doomsday Fortress.
Due to this modification, there is no longer any need to consider any living conditions, it is just for fighting, so Gu Zhuo has enough space and leeway to install various weapons and equipment on it.
The most important thing is that, like the Doomsday Fortress, it will eventually turn into a giant Gundam. Gu Zhuo thought about it and simply named it Optimus Prime.
He believed that even if others could hack into the console using hacking skills, they could not hack into the mechanic in his brain.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhuo began to piece together the final appearance of the truck bit by bit in his mind.
First, the truck compartment must be pulled forward and spliced together with the cab. A mechanical arm similar to that of the Doomsday Fortress will also be installed on both sides of the armor on the front of the car. Those two mechanical arms will also become an important part of Optimus Prime.
I don’t know how good the explosion-proof performance of the tires is, as well as the bullet-proof and explosion-proof effect of the window glass. Gu Zhuo needs to test it first. If the strength is not enough, all must be replaced.
Two huge sharp scythes can be added to the sides of the car. The scythes were inspired by the “Night Owl” built for him by Old Jack.
The car paint also needs to be replaced. While the armor is thick enough, if the car paint is equally thick, a perfect double-layer protection effect can be achieved.
Just as Gu Zhuo was thinking about whether to call V and ask him if there was any car paint or something similar to car paint on the market, he heard someone knocking on his door.
This knock on the door made Gu Zhuo wary, because Aisha had said that no one would disturb him here.
Gu Zhuo made no movement, and the knocking on the door never stopped.
Finally, Gu Zhuo left the backyard warily and walked toward the door.
He opened the door and was ready to attack at any time. If that person really came to attack him, he would definitely strike first and not give that person the slightest chance.
But as soon as the door opened, Gu Zhuo was surprised.
The man standing outside the door turned out to be Old Jack!
At this time, Old Jack still had the pipe in his mouth and his hands around his chest. He is taller than Gu Zhuo, so he seems to be looking down on Gu Zhuo.
Seeing him, Gu Zhuo was stunned for a moment and asked:
“Old Jack, what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be building a Night Owl for me?”
Old Jack let go of one hand and patted Gu Zhuo’s shoulder without taking the pipe out of his mouth:
“This morning, I saw Aisha brought you a big thing. It was hard not to notice that big thing. I haven’t seen such an old thing for a long time, so I came here to take a look.”
“You mean the truck?”
“Of course, otherwise what else could the big guy be referring to? Could he be referring to Aisha?”
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo waved his hand and wanted to rush to class. His time was too precious to be wasted by Old Jack.
Unexpectedly, Old Jack patted him on the shoulder twice more and said to him:
“Boy, believe me, I am definitely a professional in this aspect of transformation, and I will definitely help you look at it. Besides, I won’t waste much of your time. After reading it, I will go back and continue to build Night Owl.”
What Old Jack said was quite sincere. Gu Zhuo looked at him like he wouldn’t leave without showing her. While secretly feeling ashamed, he asked him again:
“You know how to modify cars, aren’t you lying to me? You’ve already told me these things.”
“I have been doing craft work for decades, and I have read books on truck design and modification before. If I am not sure about this, I will chop my two hands into pieces.”
Seeing Old Jack’s confident look, Gu Zhuo remembered that he really didn’t quite understand what useful materials and weapons were available in this era. It might be an idea to ask Old Jack to come over to help and make suggestions.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhuo said helplessly:
“Okay, come in. You’d better give me some constructive suggestions, otherwise I’ll even have doubts about your business ability.”
Gu Zhuo said as he took Old Jack to the backyard.
As soon as he arrived in the backyard and saw the original truck that had not had time to be modified, Old Jack shook his head and said “tsk tsk”.
Holding the cigarette butt in his mouth, he walked around the big truck a few times and looked at the car carefully. Then, he opened the door of the truck compartment, and when he saw the scene inside, he frowned and quickly backed out like Gu Zhuo’s attitude.
As he exited, he said to Gu Zhuo:
“It’s a nice car, it’s a big guy, but the original owner was such a bastard. Even if you don’t modify the car and get it back for collection, its collection value will be reduced a lot. It’s such a fucking waste of money.”
“Don’t say that these are some or not. I already have the basic ideas for transformation in my mind. I would like to hear what you think.”
Gu Zhuotong said to old Jack.
Old Jack took the pipe from his mouth, put it out, and put it back in his bag.
Then, he pointed at the big truck with his fingers that were blackened by burning tobacco leaves and said:
“I’m just talking about my thoughts. Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely change it like this.
“The first thing is to connect the fucking truck compartment and the driver’s cab. They can’t be separated. If they are separated, they will be useless. They are not even integrated. The second thing is to eliminate all the mess left by the original owner. , fill it with various armed robots, and open a hole on the roof of the carriage. When it is time to fight, the armed robots will fly out on their own.
“The armor of the vehicle must be thick, very thick, and it must be coated with several layers of anti-suction and anti-signal coatings. The coating must also be thicker. It must not be completely destroyed by an enemy attack or signal intrusion. .”
Hearing Old Jack mention unfamiliar terms, Gu Zhuo interrupted him:
“Anti-signal coating? What is that?”
“Boy, you don’t know this?”
“Stop the ink and speak quickly.”
“Your enemies are some of the richest people in the world. They naturally have their own high-tech weapons. Signal weapons are one of their most commonly used weapons. Once they use signal weapons, they will emit special radio frequencies. Waves can paralyze the armor worn by a person, or destroy any vehicle you control – as long as they are related to electronic signals.
“As a suction weapon, they will use a strange thing that I would like to call a Yin car. That thing is so disgusting that not even a person from the underworld can think of it.
“Use that Roush thingy car. That guy looks like a large armored car. It will directly absorb the heavy weapons on your car or the bullets you fire. Fortunately, the car is not large-scale yet. The application is mainly in the military. But it is better to apply a layer of paint on your car in case of emergency.
“In short, my suggestion is that you apply both of these two coatings, and there will be nothing wrong.”
Old Jack spoke very sincerely, and seemed to really be thinking about Gu Zhuo.
Gu Zhuo found that Old Jack could indeed provide him with some useful information, so he relieved his resentment and discussed with Old Jack seriously:
“Do you need any more preparations? Do you want to apply another layer of anti-explosion paint to increase the armor strength of the car?”
“Anti-explosion paint? You don’t need that stuff. If this is really possible, it would be best to coat the surface of the car with a layer of nanomaterials. There is no need for any extra protection. But the workload is too damn heavy. , let alone you alone, even if there are two of us, plus several craftsmen, it will take more than half a year to complete it.
“So I personally recommend that you use tungsten steel. That stuff is not bad. If you use more tungsten steel, I’m sure you won’t need explosion-proof paint anymore.”
Gu Zhuo basically ignored Old Jack’s last words.
The reason is simple. His machinist has the ability to convert other materials into nanomaterials. With so many materials here, it should be more than enough to convert enough nanomaterials for use.
But he didn’t say these words to old Jack.
“V can get all the paint you mentioned, right?”
“Yes, absolutely yes. That guy’s methods are more powerful than you think. He can definitely get it.”
“Okay. Old Jack, what weapons do you think should be installed on my truck to be powerful enough? It can’t be a simple machine gun.”
“Machine gun? How many years ago was it an antique? Who still uses that kind of thing? It’s fine for collection. You use it as a weapon. Do you think rebelling against Paradise Island is just playing house?”
Although Old Jack denied it outright, Gu Zhuo’s question also made him think about it for a while.
He touched the beard on his chin, and after a moment, answered:
“If you ask me for my opinion, I think you should put a sonic weapon. It is often this invisible weapon that scares the most. Then there is the Talz electromagnetic signal jammer. A group of thieves used it. , basically 60% of the military’s weapons will be turned into scrap metal.
“It’s just hard to find, but you can ask V. He’s very diligent and might actually be able to get one for you. But it depends on your luck.”
After nominating these two weapons, Old Jack paused for a moment, then continued to touch the beard on his chin:
“It’s not over yet. These two weapons are actually quite easy to think of.”
“Go on, don’t be pretentious.”
Gu Zhuo asked Old Jack to continue what he just said, and maybe he could get more useful information.
“In addition to the sonic weapons and Talziz electromagnetic signal jammers just mentioned, you can actually install some weapons that can cause large-scale group damage. After all, I guess you are going to drive this car directly into Arasaka Tower. Inside?
“Then when facing those numerous enemies, we will need some weapons that have real combat capabilities, rather than being used to inflict evil, especially those that can cause large-scale group injuries.
“I recommend that you install the latest spider-type projectile. This projectile will act like a spider. When it is shot out, it will spit out a white silk web with electromagnetic interference to wrap people up. It can wrap up to seven to eight people at the same time. .
“After wrapping them up, the white silk mesh can paralyze the armor they are wearing, and the spider projectiles will also explode after the armor is paralyzed.
“With a bang, all the people wrapped in the cobwebs will be blown up immediately. This is a weapon commonly used in street battles between the two parties in the past. If V uses some wild tricks and buys it at a high price, he can definitely get it for you.
“After loading the spider-type projectiles, you can install a blade on the side of your vehicle. But it is not a simple blade, it is a blade with the same electric current as the white spider web, which can paralyze the armor. This way you can kill those Paradise Islands Killing a lackey is as simple as killing a chicken.
“The specific method is probably to install a special current device in the car, and then combine that device with the blades on both sides of the car body. When the blades are extended, the current will be transmitted to the blades through the device.
“You understand what I mean, right?”
“Understand.”
Gu Zhuo nodded.
I have to admire that Old Jack’s thinking is very clear and he thinks very carefully. However, in Gu Zhuo’s eyes, his idea was still too conservative.
Gu Zhuo needs a bolder idea.
A real killing weapon.
It is definitely not a “mediocre” weapon that is not much different from a machine gun.
“Old Jack, let me ask you, if I want to build this truck into the most powerful vehicle of its time, what else do I need?”
“The most powerful car of the era?”
“That’s right.”
This question obviously bothered Old Jack. He was boasting just now, but now he is frowning and muttering:
“The most powerful car of the era, the most powerful car of the era…”
He thought for a long time and seemed to have thought of something. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he said nothing.
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Gu Zhuo urged:
“Old Jack, what do you think?”
Old Jack waved his hands and looked like “that’s all.”
Helpless, Gu Zhuo had no choice but to resort to provocation:
“You haven’t run out of inspiration. You can only come up with so many things, but you can’t think of anything more powerful, right?”
Hearing this, Old Jack glared at him. Although he was not provoked by his provocation, he still told him what he wanted to say just now:
“Yes, there is, but that is even more impossible than coating your car with nanomaterials in three days. That weapon is very powerful. If it is installed, it can be used as the military’s final weapon.
“But it’s a pity that the weapon can only be used by the highest level of the military. We low-level rats are destined to be unable to touch or build it.”
“what exactly is it?”
Gu Zhuo was a little anxious, why didn’t old Jack mention the important point?
“Light nuclear.”
Old Jack answered him calmly.
Hearing this somewhat familiar but mostly unfamiliar term, Gu Zhuo asked:
“Light nuclear?”
“You can understand it as a reduced version of a nuclear weapon. Its size is very small compared to an atomic bomb, maybe only as big as a rocket shell. But its power is terrifying. Once activated, it can blow up half a city!
“Furthermore, its assembly is much more portable than the original nuclear weapons. There are special protective devices in the cartridges it launches to avoid severe nuclear radiation when the light nuclear weapons are fired.
“It is these points that make it possible to assemble it on the car.”
Hearing Old Jack’s description, Gu Zhuo couldn’t help but feel a little moved. If he could install light nuclear weapons on the car, he would feel much safer, as if the unknown and powerful enemy, the meteorite, was not so scary anymore.
So Gu Zhuo quickly asked:
“If we really can’t get it, is there any chance of getting the blueprints?”
Hearing Gu Zhuo’s question, Old Jack glanced at him, narrowed his eyes, and asked:
“Boy, what are you going to do? You don’t want to use a blueprint to make a nuclear bomb with your hands, do you?”
“From what you said, it seems like we really have a way to get the blueprints?”
“…”
Old Jack didn’t speak. He and Gu Zhuo looked at each other.
Gu Zhuo had taken off his helmet just now, and looking at his serious expression now, it didn’t look like he was joking. Seeing the twinkling light in his eyes again, Old Jack was shocked:
Oops, this kid is crazy, he actually wants to rub a nuclear bomb with his hands!
He couldn’t help but persuade Gu Zhuo:
“K, listen to my old friend’s advice. Light nuclear is not just a blueprint. Its structure is very complex, and the amount of materials required is so rare that it is destined to be something only the upper class can use! Don’t do it. Daydreaming, lest I get hysterical later.”
“How can you be sure if you don’t give me a try?
“And we were originally going to rebel against the guys at the top, but now you say that these weapons are destined to be owned by the top people. Aren’t you denying everything you have worked hard for in advance?”
Gu Zhuo retorted quickly.
Hearing this, Old Jack was speechless.
Finally, he sighed and shook his head:
“Damn it, why are you as arrogant as when I was young? At that time, I was just like you, a brat who thought I could pop my nub with my hands.
“Okay, okay, let me tell you the truth, I actually have fucking blueprints!
“V put a lot of effort into getting this blueprint for me. In order to get this blueprint for me, he was almost discovered by those thugs and was sentenced to death.
“But when we got it back later, we found that it was of no use, because the materials needed for light nuclear weapons and nuclear bombs are even different. Even with the support of blueprints and formulas, we still have to get those materials specially provided by Paradise Island to the world’s military. Special materials. To get those materials is simply a fantasy for us!
“K, it’s good to be ambitious, but I think you should not indulge in your fantasy too much. After all, we don’t have much time left, and I don’t want to lead a madman into the battle.”
Old Jack said, pulling out a small and crude chip from his robotic arm and handing it to Gu Zhuo.
Gu Zhuo took the chip and said:
“I understand, just think that I like to dream.”
He inserted the chip into the groove on his chest, behind the memory chip V gave him.
The machinist felt the new chip being inserted. Just like last night, he reacted very quickly and asked:
“It has been detected that the host has inserted a new chip. The security of the chip has been verified. Do you want to read the chip content?”
Unlike the memory chip given by V yesterday, Gu Zhuo directly chose to read it this time.
The mechanic quickly read the contents of the chip, and then a lot of information appeared in Gu Zhuo’s mind.
But Gu Zhuo didn’t show any expression. He planned to do detailed research after Old Jack left. It was better not to show any abnormal behavior now.
