110: Appointed a chief robot engineer and obtained a large number of military orders
The big shots fell silent for a while.
For a moment, they didn't know how to evaluate the T800.
They could only arrange for another test.
This time, the T800 Robot was strictly limited, required to complete the course on foot, relying solely on its own body's flexibility.
However... the test results were again far beyond their expectations.
The T800 Robot completed the task in just 5 minutes, more than twice as fast as the Special Forces team's highest record.
This result was a complete crushing of the Special Forces team... After the first part of the live-fire test, the military concluded:
The T800 Robot is a highly intelligent robot.
Its intelligence is no less than that of humans; it can fully engage in single-soldier combat and complete various complex tasks... After the first part of the live-fire test ended,
The second part, the live-person simulation combat test, should have begun.
But... after seeing the T800 Robot's performance, Long Yingtian felt a bit intimidated.
The T800 Robot's combat power was simply inhuman; how in the world could they fight it?
Even if the entire Yanhuang Special Forces team went up together, they would be instantly wiped out.
The outcome was already decided.
Long Yingtian was not going to let the Yanhuang Special Forces team go up and lose face again.
"Let's skip the live-person simulation combat, shall we?"
"These tests are already enough to demonstrate the T800 Robot's excellence." Long Yingtian's old face flushed, perhaps a little ashamed, his voice growing weaker and weaker as he spoke.
The Sharp Blade Squad Captain heard this and let out two loud "haha" laughs.
The Yanhuang Special Forces team actually chickened out; this was something that had never happened since the Yanhuang team was established.
He could feast on this gossip for a year.
No, that's not right.
He could use this gossip to tease the Yanhuang team for a year.
Although the Sharp Blade Squad Captain was secretly overjoyed, he didn't dare to directly tease the other party at this moment.
Because if he teased them, they would definitely say: 'If you're so capable, you go!'
And if he didn't dare to go, wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?
Because facing the terrifying T800 Robot, the Sharp Blade Squad was equally intimidated.
At this moment,
It was Dong Sicheng, the Armory's weapons expert, who was completely unconcerned.
The Air Cannons and Air Guns equipped on the T800 Robot had already made the Armory lose all face.
Now you, the Special Forces team, want to save a little face?
No way.
If we're going to lose face, we'll all lose face together.
"Elder Long."
"That's not right."
"Live-fire tests and live-person simulation combat are both part of the test. If you're going to test, you should test completely. How can you test one part and not the other?"
"Are you perhaps scared?"
"..." Long Yingtian's face turned crimson, almost black, upon hearing this, looking worse than a mosaic.
He was truly humiliated today.
Long Yingtian's face was burning, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into and hide, never to come out.
This was too embarrassing.
Under Dong Sicheng's taunts, everyone thought Long Yingtian was in a difficult position and waited to see him make a fool of himself.
Unexpectedly, Long Yingtian directly admitted defeat.
"Um..."
"Um, because there's not even a sliver of a chance of winning, so... so, so... I represent the Yanhuang Special Forces team in admitting defeat." Long Yingtian said, his face red.
Although surrendering was a bit embarrassing,
If they were wiped out by the T800 Robot, the Yanhuang Special Forces team would lose even more face.
Long Yingtian finished speaking, paused for two seconds, then suddenly changed the subject:
"Although our Yanhuang Special Forces team has surrendered, the Sharp Blade Special Forces team has not. Perhaps the Sharp Blade Squad can represent the Yanhuang team in a live-person simulation combat against the T800 Robot."
Our Yanhuang team lost face, and you, Sharp Blade Squad, still want to cower?
If we're going to lose face, we'll all lose face together... The Sharp Blade Squad Captain's face changed upon hearing this, and he glared fiercely at Long Yingtian.
It's fine if you lose face yourself.
Why drag my Sharp Blade Squad into it?
What a terrible teammate!
However... now that the battle had reached them, the Sharp Blade Squad had no choice but to follow the Yanhuang team's example and directly admit defeat.
"Suddenly, I remembered that our Sharp Blade Squad has a special mission to carry out, and no personnel are available to participate in the live-person simulation combat test."
"I represent the Sharp Blade Special Forces team in admitting defeat."
...Everyone's hearts "thumped" upon hearing this; was the T800 Robot truly a monster?
It actually made some of the top-ranked Special Forces teams in Kyushu surrender without a fight.
At this moment,
Dong Sicheng walked gracefully towards Lu Xingye, his gaze somewhat fervent.
He looked at Lu Xingye as if he were looking at an undeveloped treasure.
"Chairman Lu."
"I know you have your own career."
"But..."
"You can also hold an honorary elder title in our Armory. You won't have to do anything normally, but your privileges will be immense."
"As long as you have time, you can just offer guidance on weapon manufacturing at the Armory."
Long Yingtian's face changed upon hearing this.
The Armory was trying to poach their person?
Although the Armory had some connection with his department,
Overall, the two were independent of each other.
The military also had a research institute, and it was in competition with the Armory.
They absolutely could not let the Armory snatch Lu Xingye away.
Long Yingtian muttered to himself, immediately anxious, and took a quick step in front of Lu Xingye:
"Student Lu."
"The Armory is just a research organization; what privileges can it offer? Don't be fooled by this old man."
"Just come directly to the Military Research Institute."
"I can make the decision right now to appoint you as the Chief Robotics Engineer, responsible for all matters related to robots."
"Even for the robot army that will be formed in the future, you can lead a portion of it."
Everyone gasped upon hearing this.
Chief Robotics Engineer?
Responsible for all matters related to robots?
And even command a portion of the robot army?
This real power was truly frightening.
It seemed that Long Yingtian, this cunning man, was truly going all out to win over Lu Xingye.
"Then what are the obligations of this Chief Robotics Engineer?" Lu Xingye asked after a moment of thought.
Lu Xingye didn't even consider the recruitment offer from Dong Sicheng, the Armory's weapons expert, and immediately passed on it.
The Armory was just a soulless research machine, which didn't align with Lu Xingye's future development plans.
Therefore, it was not considered.
The Chief Robotics Engineer position, however, could be considered.
But if there were too many obligations involved, Lu Xingye felt it would be better to forget it.
More obligations meant more trouble.
He didn't want to be distracted by such trivial matters.
He preferred to develop Suihuo Technology step by step, becoming a big shot in his own time.
There was no need to get too close to Kyushu.
To avoid future troubles.
"You just need to be responsible for researching and developing robots."
"You don't need to worry about other matters."
"Of course."
"The robots you develop must be supplied to the military first."
Perhaps fearing Lu Xingye's refusal, Long Yingtian quickly added after speaking:
"If you agree to be the Chief Robotics Engineer, there's another benefit—that is, priority in obtaining military industrial orders from our military."
