Chapter 26 A mountain? No! It's a huge pit!!
The moment the straight beam of the Particle Laser Cannon struck the mountainside!
The once calm and solid mountain was like being ferociously torn apart by an ancient, primordial beast.
Wherever the laser touched, rocks were instantly torn apart by the high temperature and powerful shockwave, and huge boulders were thrown into the air amidst crackling explosions.
The continuous mountain range looked as if it had been split by an invisible giant axe, with a deep chasm stretching from the peak to the base.
The power of the explosion was like a miniature geological disaster; the internal stress structure of the mountain was completely destroyed, and rocks of all sizes tumbled down like a waterfall.
Every boulder thrown into the air carried a whistling wind, as if it were the painful roar of the mountain itself.
The rising dust filled the sky like a rolling mushroom cloud, blotting out the sun and instantly burying the once magnificent mountain scenery in chaos.
The scene before them was as if disaster had descended.
Senior Colonel Wang Yong, the second-in-command of the base, was deeply shocked by this scene!
No wonder Su Chen told them to retreat; with such terrifying power, it might really have caused them harm!
And this was just the power of a single shot from the Particle Laser Cannon!
One must know that compared to traditional ammunition weapons, the Particle Laser Cannon can achieve continuous firing as long as the energy supply is sufficient.
It does not need to be reloaded like artillery; as long as the energy system can continuously provide power, it can maintain an attack state.
This has a clear advantage when facing large-scale enemies or when needing to continuously suppress targets.
Once it was fired! It was followed immediately by continuous release!
Bursts of powerful laser blasts triggered a series of violent explosions on the mountain.
Each explosion was accompanied by a deafening roar, a sound like thousands of evil dragons howling, making the earth itself tremble.
The shockwave generated by the explosions spread outwards with an overwhelming force, uprooting vegetation wherever it passed, and everything nearby was ruthlessly destroyed by this terrifying power.
The might of the Particle Laser Cannon was like divine retribution; after just a moment of bombardment, the once majestic mountain was riddled with holes, its structure shattered beyond recognition, as if it had been baptized by time and war for ten thousand years.
At this moment, Senior Colonel Wang Yong finally understood why Su Chen had asked him if there were any tourism plans for this place.
The mountain had been blasted into a big crater!
Where was the magnificent scenery from before?
If the Tourism Planning Bureau saw this, they would definitely cough up blood!
Seeing that it was about enough, Su Chen realized that if he kept bombing, this crater would likely become complete ruins!
Senior Colonel Wang Yong walked to Su Chen's side in disbelief.
"Comrade Su Chen, did you really develop this?"
"This is simply a battlefield weapon of mass destruction!"
In just a mere two or three minutes, the mountain had turned into this state!
If deployed on the battlefield, it could wipe out an entire regiment of enemies in a few minutes!
At this moment, Senior Colonel Wang Yong realized! The era seemed to have truly changed!
Before Su Chen could reply, Zhao Dairou answered for him:
"That's right! Chief!" "This was indeed manufactured by Su Chen! I can testify to that!" "I saw it with my own eyes!"
In fact, even if Zhao Dairou hadn't said anything, Senior Colonel Wang Yong already believed it mostly.
After all, Su Chen was the person who had even created the First-generation Mecha!
Senior Colonel Wang Yong looked at the devastated mountain again, and amidst his shock, he suddenly thought:
"Comrade Su Chen, how many shots can this Particle Laser Cannon fire with its equipped energy source?"
Su Chen pondered for two seconds: "It depends heavily on the energy source!"
"If it's the high-energy solid-state power source from the First-generation Mecha, there's no problem with continuous firing for five minutes!"
Five minutes?!?! Senior Colonel Wang Yong almost dropped his jaw in shock!
Just two or three minutes of continuous firing had blasted the continuous mountain range into a ravine!
If it lasted for five minutes, it could blast this entire mountain area to the ground!
Not only that!
"What about the range!" "I saw traces of bombardment very far away!" "The range of this Particle Laser Cannon must be at least thirty kilometers, right?" Senior Colonel Wang Yong asked again.
Su Chen smiled calmly: "That's because I consciously controlled the Particle Laser Cannon to fire into the mountain area!"
"If the laser weapon gathers enough energy, the maximum range can reach 100 kilometers!"
He didn't dare to raise the muzzle; who knows what is 100 kilometers away! It wouldn't be good if he accidentally caused collateral damage!
Senior Colonel Wang Yong shuddered! He was clearly startled by this 100-kilometer range!
He found it hard to believe. "Comrade Su Chen, is this true?"
"You must know that the cruising altitude of civil airliners is only 9-12 kilometers!" "The detection altitude of weather balloons is only 30-40 kilometers!" "Your 100 kilometers... are you trying to blast satellites?"
Su Chen explained: "Hitting satellites is a bit of an exaggeration!" "However, this is a weapon I designed for space warfare!" "One hundred kilometers is not that far!"
Space warfare!!!! These four words exploded in Senior Colonel Wang Yong's heart like a thunderclap!
Just when he was still excited about the application of the Particle Laser Cannon in terrestrial warfare, he didn't expect that Su Chen had already set his sights on the further reaches of space!
He is truly the man who created the First-generation Mecha! His foresight, courage, and ability all shocked him!
At this moment, he seemed to see the future, with the Dragon Kingdom's fleet galloping through the universe! Relying on the Particle Laser Cannon, conquering everywhere! Planting the Red Flag across the entire universe! What a heart-stirring scene!
Senior Colonel Wang Yong couldn't help but grasp Su Chen's hand! He gripped it tightly! "Comrade Su Chen, I am very much looking forward to the day the Dragon Kingdom conquers the universe!"
Zhao Dairou, standing to the side, was seeing the second-in-command so excited for the first time! And what made him so excited was actually just because of a young man!
Of course, at this moment she understood Senior Colonel Wang Yong's feelings! That was truly a weapon of immense power! And the developer of this weapon was none other than her junior, Su Chen!
And she seemed to realize why Su Chen became the youngest Senior Colonel in the Dragon Kingdom! However, the more she thought about it, the more curious she became! What exactly was the reason that led to him becoming a Senior Colonel?
Su Chen didn't know what Zhao Dairou was imagining! After the test was successful, they returned to the Laboratory!
Su Chen then organized all the experimental data! It took two days to finish organizing the experimental data and related logs!
Next, he prepared to install the Particle Laser Cannon onto the First-generation Mecha for another round of testing.
And just at this time! His satellite phone suddenly rang! It was a call from Commander Liu Chengzhi!
"Sorry Su Chen, I've been busy with the mecha combat testing!" "I heard you were going to test a weapon, so I asked President and Lieutenant General Chen Ming to coordinate with the base; I hope it didn't cause any delays!"
Su Chen: "Don't worry, Chief, there were no delays!" "The test is already over, and I have returned to the base!"
"That's good that there were no delays!" Commander Liu Chengzhi breathed a sigh of relief! He spoke again: "I'm afraid I need you to come to the base one more time!"
"The combat testing has been planned, come to the base now, and we will head together to the Air Force Base in the East China Theater, which has the strongest Air Force capabilities, to conduct the combat testing!"
Su Chen was stunned! He didn't expect the combat testing to start so soon! The test of equipping the Particle Laser Cannon onto the First-generation Mecha could be included in this combat test.
Thinking of this, Su Chen immediately said: "Alright, Chief!" "I will head to the base immediately!"
