Dr. Russell always makes a little movement in Chase from time to time, such as the sudden disconnection of the whole city, a loud noise at night, or some more obvious small changes that are clearly visible in the city and gadgets. The residents of the city have almost become accustomed to this; but to many people, it is amazing that after the doctor's daughter Erica returned from Calvard, similar incidents seemed to be much less all of a sudden. Many uninformed people may think that the existence of her daughter makes Dr. Russell restrain the urge to make trouble, thus creating a wishful impression of Dr. Erica's gentleness and politeness. But in fact-

Dan Russell rubbed his temples in anguish as he watched his wife furious at the pile of scrap metal on the huge testing ground below: it seemed that the second-stage experiment had failed again. The evidence is the various parts scattered on the ground, which were scattered after the explosion of the last test object.

"That **** old man! You left the setting of the positioning parameters to me, knowing that I'm not good at that kind of thing!" Dr. Erica, who danced and scolded her old father, was furious, "This time there is another Two days of hard work wasted!"

"After all, suddenly receiving that kind of entrustment, Your Majesty must not worry about handing it over to others." Dan jumped off the high platform, landed lightly, and was agile, worthy of his reputation as a former A-level guerrilla, "and Bo...ra Didn't Dr. Searle say that at this point, there are not many things that can go wrong in the plan, and the several failures now are planned, so there is no need to worry too much."

"I know... I just want to succeed at least once before the child leaves." Looking at her husband's inclusive face, Erica's temper subsided in an instant, "Although Libel did intend to go differently way, but…”

Dr. Erica is talking about Lieber's once-ambitious guided armour project - it was slow at first, but after Ling joined "Patil Mather", it went very fast . However, after a comprehensive analysis and calculation, the technical staff of Liberty became a little more realistic, because they finally realized that the particularity of "Patil Mather" cannot be copied. Not to mention the top panel performance brought by the generous use of materials, the independent calculation core from the hand of the old Yoguru alone cannot be understood by Libel anyway. If the project is carried out with "Patil Mather" as the benchmark, it is too troublesome in terms of difficulty and cost.

Although no one has suggested that the Empire's mecha technology seems to be a pretty good compromise, the single-machine performance of the mecha, even the heavy-duty "Giant", according to the information they have obtained, is far from "Patty". El Mather" strong. What's more, the Mecha Soldiers do not have the ability to fight independently. Instead, they rely heavily on the operating skills of their pilots, and their performance under the control of different people is very different. Perhaps only the legendary "riding god" derived from the product of the treasure family has a stronger reference value, but it is impossible for Libel to get a "riding god" to participate in the test anyway.

To this end, Liebel adjusted the route and began to try different development directions. Like "Patil Mathil", who has excellent battlefield vision and firepower suppression, it is the core of the calculation that requires Master Yoguru, but if it is a simplified and specialized character, even the "Cape" developed by Libel. A series of "computers" can also do it. To this end, Dr. Russell divided the manpower into several groups of independent operations for the manufacture of specialized force-guided armor for different purposes.

After hearing about Dr. Russell's project, the Epstein Consortium, which was quite interested in it, proposed cooperation at the right time, and started the research and development of a series of new products including combat robots, mining robots, rescue robots and weather robots. . As the daughter of Dr. Russell, Dr. Erica was appointed as the deputy director of the project. After receiving and evaluating the experimental results and progress of each group, she tried to integrate their functions, so as to create a product that can be used stably. Cheap and mass-produced multi-functional small-scale power-guided armor, and use this to test the new blue ocean of civilian power-guided machinery.

The news that Libel's mecha plan was transformed into civilian use not only relieved the Imperial Intelligence Department, but also caused some discussions in Libel's country. Dr. Erica herself does not reject these controversies, and the plan is indeed advancing step by step. Ling has a lot of experience in using "Patil Mather", and can give a lot of valuable opinions in this regard, which makes the project progress much faster than expected. However, the news that Ling was going to the empire made Dr. Erica feel a little reluctant, but she also understood that Ling was not her own daughter, and it was not easy for her to decide what she decided—but from then on, she secretly made up her mind to Complete this phase of work before Ling leaves.

The arrival of the imperial mission made Erica believe that the day when Ling left was not far away. She shied away from everything to focus on the project, hoping for a quick success, only to be furious that Dr. Russell didn't take Erica's wishes too seriously. After listening to all this, Dan could only laugh and cry, and he asked a question sharply: "That... Erica, did you really hear Ling say to leave immediately? Specifically, she said that she would follow Are you leaving with the imperial mission?"

"Isn't it? As soon as she heard that the imperial mission was coming, she quietly went to Gransel by herself, and didn't even leave a letter to me and Tida..." Dr. Erica said aggrieved, "Clearly I Also...I..."

"Okay alright... Don't you often get angry because she called your auntie on purpose? Huh?" Dan said this half-jokingly, seeing his wife glaring at him viciously, he couldn't help but burst into laughter before continuing. He said, "But... she didn't leave without saying goodbye, but she told me the matter well. Of course, Tida also knew that I told her a long time ago, and this was something they had already discussed."

"...Then why didn't you tell me!" Erica was stunned; Dan didn't mean—"I thought—"

"Ling didn't tell you directly because I was afraid that you would react too much... It's just that when I was going to tell you, you had already started to work hard. I was afraid that you would not be in the mood to do things and make trouble, so I thought about it. Don't look at the results first and then..."

Just as the husband and wife were talking loudly, the huge metal door of the underground laboratory was slowly pushed open.
