Apocalypse: The Stronghold System

Chapter 082: Operating Exercise HK-80KAH-EP

—700 Meters to Southeast from Mingyue Defense—

Fan Chen took out the HK-80KAH-EP Armor he stored and put it on. "Xiaochu, please control this suit for a while for learning for beginners."

The ion propulsion machine lit up under the feet and palms and behind the back adjacent to the shoulders, then the armor began to leave the ground slowly to a height of three meters.

"Xiaochu, please lift to a height of five hundred meters. After getting there, stay still for a while, then fall at top speed, but a meter before touching the ground, do a quick maneuver to climb again."

“What is Master sure?”

Fan Chen adjusted his breathing before being completely convinced. "Yes!"

The armor rose slowly as the ion propulsion machine let out a larger flame in blue; its speed continued to increase every few tens of meters once. In the upper corner of his vision, he saw figures showing altitude, atmospheric pressure and air quality.

When he reached an altitude of 500 meters from the ground level, Fan Chen regulated his breathing again as his heartbeat beat quite fast. He even touched his chest, but forgot that he was wearing armor.

"Xiaochu, count how fast I'm going down at top speed?"

“If the full acceleration speed of Mach 7, to cover the distance of five hundred meters only need 209.9 milliseconds or 0.2 seconds.”

Fan Chen swallowed his saliva and lowered his head at the current height. If he really darted down at top speed, even though he could maneuver down there, but he felt his heart could not withstand the pressure.

"Enough Mach 2."

“Good, Master.”

The ion plunger machine in the hand of the robot armour is off, and the ion machine behind the 145° movable back is rotating direction: from the bottom then horizontal and rise slowly until the robot armour slightly tilted forward until facing down.

When the armor was already facing down, all the ion engines activated at a predetermined speed.

Fan Chen felt his heart beating faster than before, he was even sweating as he looked at the ground that was getting closer.

250 ... 180 ... 100 ... 50 ...

"Ohhhh!!!" Fan Chen shouted as the ion engine was still speeding along despite almost hitting the ground, but when it was only two meters away, suddenly the armour maneuvered with the ion engine hidden in the heel lit up.

After its horizontal position, the ion engine under its feet gives off a stronger thrust, but the ion engine in the heel stops working. Then both hands moved on their own with a slightly more advanced position, making the armor change direction upward and fly faster.

The HK-80KAH-EP armour stopped moving and remained hovering when it had returned to an altitude of 500 meters from ground level.

Fan Chen gasped for breath feeling an inexplicable fear. He set his breath again, then took the final test that risked his life.

“What is the serious Master?” Xiaochu appeared in Fan Chen's vision when a small chip on the nape detected muscle motion and brain frequency waves.

This chip was still the Graphene Chip, but it had already been refined after Xu Chen made progress about brain waves. The technology only reads brainwave functions for ordinary and simple communication, unlike taking consciousness that is transferred to a virtual world.

But this is enough to send the function of opening and closing the Armor HK-80KAH-EP.

"Yes!"

“Good.” Xiaochu waved his hand and nodded, then the armor separated.

Fan Chen gritted his teeth as he fell from a height, he felt the air pressure around him and was a little difficult to breathe.

Then he flowed the Lightning Element ability in the Shandian Bracelet in the right hand.

Vaguely visible thread thinner than hair, it is electrically connected with Armor HK-80KAH-EP. The armor got a signal, then darted down chasing after Fan Chen.

The HK-80KAH-EP armor caught up with Fan Chen and was already open, but did not immediately stop because he had not fully closed. If it instantly stopped when Fan Chen had yet to enter completely, then an unwanted accident could not be avoided.

The moment the HK-80KAH-EP Armor had already captured Fan Chen completely, it instantly stopped, but not for long and instantly shot upwards, circling like a top in the air.

"Ohhhhh!" Fan Chen shouted loudly and in panic, then he stopped the flow of lightning.

Instantly, Fan Chen fell down as no energy source entered the ion machine.

The HK-80KAH-EP armor re-ignited and flew steadily, then landed with its feet touching the ground first.

When the armor opened on the front, Fan Chen stepped up, then kneeled until his hand touched the ground.

"It's .. horrible."

“Master, Shandian Bracelet in left hand for weapons such as ion and laser shooters; right hand for booster machine or ion launcher. Earlier Master activated the ion engine in the heel and back, resulting in an imperfect push and Master circled .”

Fan Chen smiled wryly upon hearing Xiaochu's voice coming from the HK-80KAH-EP Armor. "I was panicking."

“But how it works has been made easier because Scientist Xu Chen developed brain wave reader technology. Master does not need to control one by one ion machine, Master just need to think about it, Graphene Chip Brain Wave Reader can catch the Master's wish and send the corresponding command.”

Fan Chen knew that, now it was indeed easier. If it still followed the previous way of working, for one Shandian Bracelet with the function of controlling four ion machines, he was really unsure how to control it.

Now he just needs to energize enough, and send out brain waves to shut down certain ion machines. This chip can also make its own calculations, so that when it is not connected to Xiaochu, it can still function normally.

But, earlier he was panicking and did not think about it clearly, so the orders received were very random.

Fan Chen sighed, he re-entered the HK-80KAH-EP Armor, then he poured lightning into the Shandian Bracelet.

Whoooooooshes! Boom up!

The HK-80KAH-EP armor flew backwards, then smashed into the rubble until it was crushed by the rocks and buried it.

Fan Chen was speechless, not even he intended to get out of the rubble that was overlapping him.

“Master should focus!”

Fan Chen again sighed with an inexplicable emotion. He rose up from the rubble that overcame him, revealing an armor that remained intact without any scratches. Then he re-routed the lightning in the Shandian Bracelet, but this time the ion engine on his back was facing upwards, making him stumble and fall to the front.

"Damn!"

Fan Chen stood up, he did not give up, he continued to train the wave control abilities generated from his brain.

Fail, fail, fail, fail and fail. But he didn't stop, kept trying until it took him an hour to really succeed.

Fan Chen came out of the HK-80KAH-EP Armor, sitting relaxed on the ground. Looking around, many places were destroyed.

"Because there are already brain waves, the HK-80KAH-EP Armor can already be mass produced?"

“Yes, all functions are the same, the only difference is the length of time worked. If the HK-80KAH-EP Armor is normal with the current battery capacity, it can fly in the sky for ten hours at a speed of Mach 3. But Armor HK-80KAH-EP Type Lightning Element, can fly until all components are damaged or Master runs out of Energy.”

“Then although there is a strong chip, protected material heat resistance, impact and explosion, and able to make its own calculations, but it is recommended not to fly over the limit distance of the Signal Transmitter Drone.”

Fan Chen nodded his head, then he again stood up and took out the Anti-Gravity Mothership.

Suddenly a very large ship appeared in front of him with dimensions 444 × 88 meters with a height of 55 meters. The shape is like an aircraft carrier in a film originating from the Bald Eagle Country, but the size is larger with a variety of weapons attached.

The arrival of the Anti-Gravity Mothership resulted in severe tremors such as earthquakes and gravel and dust rising. Immediately, he entered the HK-80KAH-EP Armor for cover.

When the dust had disappeared, he could see the original form of the Anti-Gravity Mothership. The color is deep black with anti-heat coating. Ten Turbine Boosters are very big like a house measuring 15 × 15 meters, and there is Ion Machine as the main driver when want to ride.

Railguns are mounted on the deck or on the keel of the ship below. The side has a hole cover to hide where the missile is located. Then there is the enormous Plasma Cannon with a diameter of 25 meters like Tunnel Boring Machine.

Seeing this, Fan Chen was speechless and extremely astonished. Micro-Nuclear batteries, but they can lift objects this big.

"With this thing, I can pick up Team Alpha faster and return the truck we sent before."
