623: Chapter 622 is still just a pilot's suit.

However...

Facing General Li Jingwu's question, Lin Mo simply shook his head.

"No, it's not enough. It's far from enough."

Lin Mo paused for a moment before changing the subject.

"Everyone, the Kunlun Generation III performance tests I just showed you—whether it was strength, mobility, protection, or energy absorption—are all just the basic functions of the Kunlun Generation III armor."

"It is not enough to oppose an alien civilization, especially a Level 2 or higher cosmic civilization like the Trisolarans."

Basic... functions?

Long Jianjun's eyes twitched violently.

What the hell do you mean basic functions?!

You call tanking a hydrogen bomb, tearing apart alloys with bare hands, and reflecting main cannon fire 'basic functions'?

Then what counts as a core function?

Blowing up the Blue Planet with one punch?!

Lin Mo ignored the expressions on everyone's faces, which looked as if they had seen a ghost.

He smiled and continued.

"Please, don't misunderstand."

"The core design philosophy of the Kunlun Generation III is in direct line with the Kunlun Generation I and Kunlun Generation II."

Lin Mo paused again.

Then, he calmly dropped the next bombshell.

"It is first and foremost a tool, and only then is it a weapon."

"Its most core function is actually to serve as... a pilot suit."

"A pilot suit for controlling even larger mechanical entities."

A pilot suit?

Those three words were like a clap of thunder, exploding in everyone's minds.

"Comrade Lin Mo..."

Long Jianjun felt as if his throat were being squeezed tight by an invisible hand; he swallowed hard, his voice trembling.

"That... larger mechanical entity you mentioned..."

His gaze was fixed on Lin Mo, his eyes bloodshot and filled with irrepressible fanaticism.

"Chengying?"

The entire room fell into a dead silence.

Every eye was focused on Lin Mo, waiting for the final verdict.

Lin Mo smiled.

He didn't answer directly.

He simply turned and walked toward a tightly sealed alloy door on the other side of the laboratory.

"Everyone."

"Please follow me."

Everyone followed behind Lin Mo subconsciously.

Passing through the alloy door, they arrived at a familiar pure white corridor.

But this time was different; the left side of this white corridor was made entirely of transparent specialized glass.

It allowed for a complete bird's-eye view of the entire underground space.

*Clack! Clack! Clack!*

As the group walked into the glass corridor...

Rows of massive dome lights lit up one after another, from near to far!

The light dispelled the darkness.

It also allowed the sight of the underground space to be presented before everyone's eyes in the most crude, direct, and shocking way!

In that instant.

Time seemed to stand still.

Everyone's breathing halted at this moment.

Before them was a vast space that defied description, an underground base more magnificent than any aircraft factory or shipyard on the Blue Planet!

It was estimated to be the size of at least several hundred football fields, and the height of the dome alone exceeded two hundred meters.

The interior of the space was divided into multiple zones.

Countless complex steel structures supported the cave's dome.

Various massive mechanical arms and maintenance platforms hung all around.

It was filled with the sci-fi aesthetics of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

As the group walked onto the high glass corridor, a chasm of hundreds of meters lay beneath their feet; some instinctively grabbed the handrails.

But soon.

Their attention was completely drawn to the sight in the distance.

It was the area right in the center of the space.

Approximately ten large mechanical entities stood quietly on their respective fixed platforms.

Because only a few ordinary basic lights were on...

The lighting was very poor.

It took a few seconds for everyone to see clearly.

At that moment.

Everyone finally discovered...

That these large mechanical entities were, shockingly, Humanoid Mechas over seven meters tall, their entire bodies covered in dark gold armor, exuding an aura of ferocious lines and slaughter!

Everyone stood frozen on the spot.
