"Level 4 Kaiju Beast, so fast?!" Locke couldn't help being surprised after hearing this.

It is only the end of 2018. According to the original plot, the first level 4 Kaiju Beast should appear after a year. But can the current wormhole really allow the Level 4 Kaiju Beast to pass through?

Or did the pioneers use some special means to speed up the invasion by a whole year?

"This is the first time we face a level four Kaiju beast. It would be safer to concentrate on three mecha hunters." Whether there are any new changes in the wormhole needs to be observed and confirmed later. The important thing now is to solve this problem. Chrysanthemum beast.

Locke contacted Stike and put forward his own idea: "In addition, the test of the Horizon Warrior went very well, so we might as well let him join this battle."

"Are you sure?" Stike asked.

"My transformation of the Horizon Warrior this time is not just about replacing the cockpit with a supercomputer." Locke said.

Stike did not agree immediately. He was still hesitating. At this time, the observation station transmitted the picture of Kaiju Beast. What appeared in front of several people was a huge figure.

After observing for a moment, Cai Tiantong said loudly: "This Kaiju Beast is named Shanlan. Can you confirm the Kaiju Beast's target now?"

"Based on the direction Kaijumon is heading, it is initially judged that it is near San Diego. Based on Shanlan's speed in the sea, it is expected to enter the waters of San Diego in eighteen hours. Kaijumon's speed is very fast, and the monitor in the deep sea will soon be lost. Its concrete traces.”

"Let detectors across the Pacific Ocean pay attention to Shanlan's specific location at all times, and also confirm the specific data of Kaiju Beast."

"Based on Shanlan's size and dynamic capture, Shanlan weighs 5,600 tons."

"It's more than 5,000 tons, but it's only a fourth-level Kaiju beast?" Locke couldn't help but said: "With this volume and weight, it can be said to be a fifth-level Kaiju beast."

"Don't be ridiculous, Locke. So far, we haven't even encountered a fourth-level Kaiju beast." Cai Tiantong couldn't help but change his face: "There have been false alarms about Kaiju beast levels before. Could it be... …”

"Impossible. It is absolutely impossible for the wormhole to pass through the fifth-level Kaiju beast now. The Li Group analyzes the wormhole data every week, and I have confirmed the latest data.

The wormhole is not yet so stable. Let alone the fifth-level Kaiju beast, even the fourth-level Kaiju beast is difficult to pass through. I think the appearance of Shan Lan this time may even be a trick on his part to allow the fourth-level Kaiju beast to pass through. Kaijumon passed through the wormhole. "

Locke shook his head, denying the possibility of the appearance of the fifth-level Kaiju Beast.

The butterfly effect he brings may affect the tactics of both sides, as well as the types and combat methods of Kaiju beasts.

But the stability of the wormhole is an objective factor. If there was really a way to stabilize the wormhole in advance, the pioneers in the original plot would not have sent out the fifth-level Kaiju beast seven years later.

"No matter what, there must be something special about this Shanlan, and we must treat it with caution." The situation of Kaiju Beast is obviously different from the original plot, and Locke does not dare to make a judgment easily.

Stike thought for a while and then issued the order: "Since the Kaiju Beast is heading east, let the bases in Los Angeles, Lima, and Panama prepare for the mecha hunters to attack, and arrange for dangerous wanderers to be prepared. Be prepared to support.

The news of the emergence of the fourth-level Kaijumon cannot be spread easily. To the media, it is said to be a level-3 Kaijumon invasion. However, we need to arrange a practical test of the new system, so we will dispatch multiple Mecha Hunters. "

"Wait a minute, don't forget the Horizon Warriors" Locke said at this time.

"No, fully autonomous driving technology is still under experimentation." Stike refused without thinking: "And the situation in Shanlan this time is obviously abnormal."

"Isn't this just right?" Locke said instead: "I have confidence in the system I developed, and the situation of opening the chrysanthemum beast this time is indeed strange. It would be good to use the Horizon Warrior to take the lead and test it out.

In my opinion, this is the best time to test the fully autonomous driving system. If the Horizon Warrior is accidentally damaged, the Lee Group will also be responsible for building a new mecha. "

At this time, reports came one after another from Stike:

"Los Angeles Base, Mammoth Apostle and Blue Romeo are ready!"

"Lima Base, the Wrath of the Matador is ready!"

"Panama Base, Corinthian Serpent is ready!"

"Is the Corinthian Serpent going to attack too? Kennedy LaRue has just graduated from the Hunter Academy, and is she the only female ranger so far, right?" Cai Tiantong couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

"She is the most outstanding among the latest batch of graduates, and she is very compatible with the Corinthian Serpent. This is her first actual battle!" Stike said solemnly.

Experienced rangers are indeed more reassuring, but newcomers must also be given a chance to grow. All veteran rangers are newcomers, and they all suffered losses in the battle with Kaiju Beast in the beginning.

Although the fully-autonomous mecha hunter project initiated by Locke has initially achieved results, Stike has also had in-depth discussions with Locke and knows that with current technology and the most optimistic estimates, fully-autonomous driving cannot completely replace the Ranger.

Compared with some experienced rangers, there is definitely a big gap between autonomous driving and the ability to unleash the power of specially customized mecha hunters.

The most suitable way to use the current fully autonomous driving technology is to mass-produce several fixed models, using standardized weapons and equipment and fixed tactics, which are equivalent to modular soldiers, while the mecha hunter driven by the ranger can become an all-rounder. elite warrior.

Thinking of this, Stike finally made an arrangement: "In this case, the Horizon Warriors will take the lead in testing, the Mammoth Apostles, Corinthian Serpents, and Dangerous Wanderers will cooperate. The Blue Romeo of the Los Angeles base will stay at the base, and the Matador's Fury will defend Santiago's death. Sprint range!

This time, PPDC has made a big move. In addition to the Horizon Warrior used for experimental testing, it directly used three mechas for siege and one mecha for defense. To put it bluntly, it was considered that this might be the first level four. When it comes to opening a chrysanthemum beast, you can never be too cautious.

After giving the order, Stike sighed: "Locke, do you know that once these mechas are dispatched, two billion US dollars have been spent, even if they appear every time in the future, they will be level four. Kaijumon, I can't maintain this level of siege every time, so..."

Locke nodded: "Don't worry, as long as the fully autonomous driving system is successfully tested, I will produce a few more units and arrange them in different bases. If they are damaged, the repairs can be left to me. For me, the assembly line produces standard weapons. But it’s my old profession.”

A fully autonomous mecha naturally requires the input of a team of experts in terms of design and improvement, and even the cost of building a test machine is not much less than that of manufacturing other mecha hunters.

In this regard, Locke has already cooperated with Shaw Group. The other party's expert team can be said to be top-notch. At the same time, Locke only needs to provide a small amount of subsidies.

As long as the final shape is completed, a suitable production line can be specially modified, and then these automatic mechas can be produced like products on an assembly line.

For Locke, who has hundreds of thousands of robots working for him, and all kinds of parts can be produced automatically, the cost is actually the cost of the ore, and other aspects can be reduced to almost negligible.

As a result, the cost of producing an automatic mecha with performance comparable to that of the fifth-generation mecha may be only one-quarter or even one-fifth of the cost of a mecha previously produced by PPDC.

These modular automatic mechas are low-cost and can naturally be installed on a larger scale. At the same time, due to modular production, it is easy to prepare spare parts and repair them. Even if they are completely damaged, they can be recycled to the maximum extent.

Unlike other Mecha Hunters, each one is specially customized. Each one requires a dedicated maintenance team. If many parts are broken, they need to be temporarily customized and produced.
