Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon! Chapter 545

Chapter 545: Chapter 346: Multinational Participation in War (First Update) Chapter 545: Chapter 346: Multinational Participation in War (First Update) “Terrifying!”

In Siamese City, inside a Military Weapon Research Bureau, Boston Dynamics Company president Kegelo Clayton looked at a pile of Spider Mecha parts and fragments, his eyes sparkling brightly.

These mecha fragments had all been collected from the battlefield because they had been deliberately destroyed when being withdrawn; the mecha had been utterly devastated. Nonetheless, Siamese troops had treasured them like precious gems and had gone to great lengths to retrieve them.

However, Siam had not had the chance to start researching them before Beautiful Country stepped in and took over the research rights to this batch of mecha spoils.

Kegelo had come for this very purpose. The Daring Mecha and Diamond Mecha developed by his Boston Dynamics Company had been recently rejected by the military of Beautiful Country due to failed research, which prevented them from receiving purchase orders from the military.

Now having heard that Siam had spoils from Jieke Group's mecha, he lost no time. Through lobbying high-level officials in Beautiful Country, he had obtained the opportunity to come here for research.

After actually seeing these pieces of Spider Mecha, Kegelo's worldview was shattered to pieces.

For example, what he was testing right now was a wriggling meat tumor.

In his tests, this meat tumor exhibited an extremely high resistance to heat. Under the blaze of a flame, the surface of the meat tumor slowly started to char, but the rate of charring was very slow, completely unlike the resistance that flesh should have.

In Kegelo's understanding, the flesh of normal carbon-based life forms, which use water as a medium, could definitely not do this, because both high and low temperatures can cause biological cells to collapse.

Yet these meat tumors possessed heat-resistant characteristics. Although they appeared to be flesh, the abilities they possessed amazed Kegelo.

Beyond heat resistance, these meat tumors were like a special type of super rubber, with incredible toughness and elasticity.

In research tests, a meat tumor with the thickness of a palm could easily withstand the firing of 7.62 bullets from 50 meters away.

After a bullet entered the meat tumor, it would stretch the tumor continuously, like a piece of rubber, countering the bullet's kinetic energy and then ejecting the depleted bullet.

Any kinetic energy that exceeded the meat tumor's limits, although it would penetrate the meat tumor, would not cause much deformation in the meat tumor itself, which also had the ability to self-repair.

The wriggling meat tumor secreted a type of mycelium that grew new meat tumors until the wound was covered.

This repair could continue two to three times depending on the size of the wound, explaining why Spider Mecha on the battlefield, despite looking covered in external scars, could still move normally.

Because only the external supplementary armor was damaged, the meat tumors inside had repaired themselves.

The astounding speed and flexibility of the Spider Main Battle Mecha could also be attributed to these meat tumors.

“This kind of elasticity, how on earth is it achieved? It's simply not something that seems as if it could be produced by nature.”

Kegelo looked at a meat tumor as thick as a finger that had hoisted a one-ton weight and was still continuously extending and contracting, causing the ton of metal below to swing up and down like a yo-yo, making his pupils quake.

Turning his head, Kegelo saw a severed metallic leg of a Spider Mecha nearby. After cutting open the metal exterior, the inside was filled with twisting meat tumors, like countless muscle fibers wound around.

Kegelo could already imagine a completely intact Spider Battle Armor walking. Rather than saying they were walking, it is more accurate to say they were bounding.

Only meat tumors with this level of elasticity could support a Spider Mecha's combat weight of hundreds of tons on eight long legs, instantly rebounding upon landing, coupled with the special construction at the ends of the spider's legs, enabling them to maintain surprising speed and flexibility despite the massive weight.

“How about it, can you replicate this kind of mecha?”

At the side, a Chan Country Affairs Intelligence Officer from the Central Intelligence Agency named Shawang asked. They had taken these pieces of mecha from the Siam Military and guarded them as treasures.

“I need time to study the secrets of these mecha. If this kind of meat tumor can be replicated and produced, the outcome would be enormous in both military and civilian fields,” Kegelo replied, brimming with excitement. There were many more secrets to uncover about the Spider Mecha, such as the neural connections, achieving one-person operation, as well as the construction of the mecha, the framework material, energy transmission operation, and so on–all issues he wanted to figure out.

Of course, the most crucial was this special kind of meat tumor. Kegelo was thrilled at the prospect that should he manage to develop a similar product, his fortune would be assured.

Just as Kegelo was lost in his daydreams, the exclamations of several researchers suddenly snapped him back to reality.

“What happened?”

“Mr. Kegelo, these meat tumors suddenly began to shrink.”

The researchers reported the situation frantically. Hearing that the precious material had developed a problem, Kegelo became anxious and hurried over.

He saw that in the place where the meat tumors were stored, the ones that were previously wriggling no longer moved and instead began decaying and withering bit by bit, emitting a strong stench–as if they were ordinary decaying flesh.

“Fuck, what are you standing there for? Freeze these treasures immediately!” Kegelo, sweating from his forehead, ordered the nearby researchers.

But no matter what methods they used, they could not stop the decay of the meat tumors.

Eventually, tons of meat tumors turned into mounds of rotten and stinking decay, completely devoid of their previous miraculous properties.
