NOVPUBChapter 447 -447: Excavator Opening Bottle Caps
“Mr. Blair, Dean, this is the beam cannon made by Li Zhiming, with a caliber of 200 millimeters and a temperature that can reach 3.5 million degrees Celsius. Its power is enough to penetrate the armor of any weapon on Earth in an instant.”
“This is the portable electromagnetic railgun made by Zhou Yiming. It’s roughly the size of a handgun, but the shells it fires can reach 120 megajoules of energy!”
“This is the plasma hand grenade made by Li Qiwei. After it explodes, the covered area reaches 500 square meters; any mechanical equipment within the covered area will malfunction, and even a tank would turn into a pile of scrap metal.”
“This is the Gauss sniper gun and Gauss handgun made by Yu Hao. The principle is similar to the electromagnetic cannon, but the advantage is portability, and its power is controllable,” Teacher Jax rarely praised a student, “Yu Hao’s learning talent is quite impressive. In just half a year, he has already started researching floating cannons and the Dragon Cavalry System!”
These conceptual weapons left Blair astounded. Any one of these weapons could arm an incredibly powerful army, and these are just some of the students’ works from the school?
Blair had heard of things like beam cannons and Gauss weapons, and he roughly knew their principles, but what were these floating cannons and Dragon Cavalry System? Blair was totally confused.
“Advisor Fang, what Teacher Jax was talking about just now…” Blair asked, albeit somewhat awkwardly, needing to clarify.
“Oh, this is also a type of new weapon,” Teacher Jax explained, “The floating cannon and Dragon Cavalry System are types of wireless, unmanned remote attack weapons, representing very powerful conceptual model weaponry.” 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
With a casual swipe, a holographic projection suddenly appeared mid-air. Just this piece of technology alone startled Blair, as this was entirely a city filled with high-tech marvels!
“The floating cannon and Dragon Cavalry System themselves are equipped with independent propulsion engines, optical imaging systems, beam cannons, and control systems. They primarily work through a brainwave transmission system, which is essentially spiritual power, conducting remote control through spiritual sensing waves. Thus, they are entirely unaffected by any electromagnetic signal interference and can conduct one-to-many remote super-control combat!”
“Amazing,” Blair marveled at the schematic diagram of the principle, unable to fathom such a weapon, “but wouldn’t ordinary people find it impossible to handle? One has to control the weapon to attack and operate the machinery, which is way too hard.”
“Hahaha, don’t worry about that, Mr. Blair. Since we can make such weapons, we naturally have a systematic training program to train people capable of mastering these weapons,” Fang Jueyu said. “There is also a Mechanical College at this school, offering a wide range of driving courses, including the operation of such weapons!”
“Can we take a look?” Blair asked.
“Certainly, you are a guest, and we will of course comply with your requests,” Fang Jueyu instructed Teacher Jax, “Teacher Jax, please take us on a tour. I’ll take the guest to visit the Mechanical College. You can attend to your work.”
“Certainly, Dean.” Teacher Jax bowed respectfully to Fang Jueyu before walking off alone.
“What a solitary teacher.” Watching Jax’s back, Blair suddenly had a daring thought; if he could offer a higher reward than Fang Jueyu, perhaps he could recruit a few teachers from here.
Not too many, but even just recruiting one or two would be obvious benefits for the Federation. Teacher Jax’s solitary nature made him an excellent target; if he could bring him back to the Federation, the Federation’s military capability would surely surpass Huaxia.
A portal transported them to the Mechanical College’s driving base. These were huge, independently standing buildings, each housing different vehicles and weapons.
The term “huge” wasn’t an exaggeration; the area was almost as large as a small city! These city-like buildings were present in numbers that reached into the hundreds!
“Who is that?” Blair and his companions scrutinized a man in a strange uniform. They weren’t in outer space, so why was he wearing something akin to a spacesuit with a helmet? Could this person be a bit mad?
However, he could assess that this teacher should just be an ordinary person; his gait, breathing, and energy fluctuations were hardly detectable even for an ordinary individual.
This actually provided him a sigh of relief. It seemed not everyone at this school was a master; such impressive teachers must be few and far between.
“Teacher Amuro, we’ll need to trouble you this time!” Fang Jueyu said with a smile.
“No trouble at all, serving the Dean is our duty!” Amuro led everyone into a hall, which looked exactly like a driving test area.
However, it was strange that there weren’t just cars and buses, but also trains, high-speed trains, subways, and even tanks and armored vehicles! Almost every ground transportation tool and land weapon could be found here.
“Darn, Wang Kai, how long have you been learning to reverse park a tank and still can’t get it right? Everyone’s been learning for just one day! Zhou Yufei is already able to drive the high-speed train!”
“Hey hey hey, someone help me—my cannon is out of control!”
“Hahaha, I can finally use a bulldozer to open a soda bottle cap!”
“Tonight, let’s race maglev trains, 500 kilometers, loser buys dinner!”
…
“What is all this…” The superpower users had incredibly sharp hearing, and Blair was on the verge of swearing after overhearing the students’ lively discussions.
He had heard of drag racing and reverse parking, but who would ever need to practice reverse parking a tank? Who has ever seen someone race maglev trains? Bulldozer bottle opening? Were these students devils? What kind of theatrics were these?
“Dean, this is our basic driving skills training base, with a total of 1,357 kinds of land vehicular transport and land warfare weapons. Generally, students can become quite proficient within three days.”
“Let’s head to Base Number Two over there,” Amuro led the team further onward.
In Base Number Two were common airplanes, helicopters, fighter jets, bombers—essentially any aerial transportation used on Earth. Any model of combat aircraft one could think of was available for students to experience.
“Dean, these are students who’ve been learning for a relatively shorter time. The driving skills required here are sufficient to handle any transportation tool needed for a first-level low civilization. Most students can thoroughly master them within half a month following theoretical courses. The area over there is for more advanced transportation tools.”
“Half a month!” Blair’s jaw had been gaping since entering the school, nearly becoming numb.
What country doesn’t require years of training and significant resources to produce a competent pilot? Yet here, students can operate any model of fighter jet and tank within just half a month?
It all sounded unbelievable, but seeing those fighter jets soar freely through the skies, executing advanced maneuvers, he could only believe it was all true.
“Recruit him! This teacher has to be recruited too!” Blair’s gaze towards Amuro was filled with enthusiasm.
As a Gundam pilot, Amuro had extremely high sensitivity and instantly caught onto Blair’s gaze.
He sidled up to Fang Jueyu, “Dean, who’s this? Why did you bring such a… flamboyant person here…”
