A Journey of American Comics Starting from the Zombie Universe

Chapter 112 The First Power Armor

"Here, here is my biggest workbench." After walking for a while in the bright passage, the craftsman led the crowd into a room, and the militiamen wearing bipedal mechas had dispersed at this time, and returned to themselves. on the original post.

The room is neatly arranged, with various tools and equipment hanging on the walls, and parts of various sizes neatly placed on the workbench.

The workbench is huge and sturdy, and its surface is covered with special materials, making it look very durable. Around the workbench, there are several advanced computers and monitors that emit a faint blue light.

The craftsman proudly introduced:

"Here, I create a lot of technological equipment and weapons. This workbench is where I think, create and improve. Almost every project starts from here."

"Sounds good, what is that?"

In the corner of the studio, a room that looked a little special caught the eye of the eagle.

This room is obviously different from other work areas. It looks more like an isolated 'cell'. The front of the room is a layer of light yellow transparent glass, allowing people to clearly see everything inside.

Through the glass, you can see that the walls of the room are densely covered with soft cushions. Each cushion seems to be carefully placed there. Their existence is obviously to cushion the possible impact.

There was a bed in the cell, and there was an old man with blond hair in a blue tights lying on the bed. He was obviously a little excited when he saw people coming into the studio. He stood up and gently pressed one hand on the glass. , a burst of light yellow energy bubbles appeared around him.

"Speedball?" Clint leaned over and said in surprise with his eyes widened.

Bai Ye didn't lean over, but just watched quietly.

That was a little hero of the [-]th line. His ability was to absorb all the kinetic energy around him and store it in his body. Other than that, most attacks could not cause him harm.

In the official history, the most famous thing he has done is to bring his own team of heroes performing reality shows to hunt down the nitro-human villain team who can repeatedly blow themselves up for the sake of TV ratings.

But something went wrong, because their internet celebrity team, which specializes in talking, learning to sing, and beautiful girls acting cute, was simply unable to catch Nitrogen.

Instead, they used verbal humiliation to make the Nitrogens explode in anger, razing everything within a kilometer radius, including an overcrowded primary school, to the ground, causing nearly a thousand casualties.

This triggered the very famous "civil war" event in the comics. The heroes headed by Iron Man and Captain America were divided into the registration faction and the anti-registration faction.

Of course, the speedball in this universe seems to be a blessing in disguise. Due to the occurrence of the day of the fall, he has not experienced all that, and he does not have to carry hundreds of lives to live.

As for the evidence, Bai Yezai carefully looked at the bubbling blond old man in the room. His costume was the blue-toned tights before the Civil War, not the nail suit he changed into for atonement later.

"Yes, that's him." The craftsman was picking up a wet towel to wipe his hands. Seeing that Hawkeye was still a little curious, he replied:
"That room was specially made by me. When I found Speedball on the wasteland, he had been continuously absorbing kinetic energy for more than ten years, and he would be able to do it with a little flip."

He shrugged and made a blowing motion with his hands, as if he felt that it was not enough, the craftsman picked up a broccoli from a glass bowl on the counter and shook it, which looked a bit like a mushroom cloud.

"Hiss—it's not about you personally, buddy."

Hearing the craftsman's words, Clint gasped, stepped back from the side of the cell in the sad eyes of Speedball, and winked wildly at the craftsman tightly.

It means: This guy is so dangerous, why would you let him so close?
"Calm down, I told you that the room was specially made for me." Seeing the lingering fear in the eagle's eyes, the craftsman reluctantly threw the broccoli into his mouth, chewed and said:

"Those mats absorb kinetic energy like a speedball, and so does the glass, and there are motion sensors in the room, so if the speedball falls over it will shut off the gravity for a split second, preventing him from blowing us up."

"Ugh that still doesn't sound very safe."

But even though he said it, Clint walked two steps forward with his teeth bared, and came to the yellow glass to catch up with the speedball.

In fact, to be honest, they don't have much to reminisce about, they didn't know each other very well back then, especially after experiencing Eagle Eye's performance just now, the two of them were quite awkward chatting.

"They talk about theirs, let's talk about ours." After glancing at Clint, Bai Ye came to the workbench and stood in front of the craftsman and said.

"Okay, let's talk about your plan. What kind of power armor do you want me to make for you?" Pushing the glass bowl aside, the craftsman tightened his headband and looked at Bai Ye, "A rebellious person like you Hulk mecha? That’s not very easy to build.”

"It's not easy to make?"

Bai Ye smiled slightly, "Of course I didn't ask you to build this kind of thing. Iron Man's armor is tailor-made for individuals to fight alone."

After listening to Bai Ye's explanation, the craftsman thought for a while and said, "What you need is a power armor that can be mass-produced and suitable for strengthening people, right?"

"Like Doctor Doom's Doom robot?" He typed a few times on the computer keyboard, and a holographic image appeared in front of the two of them, including an iron-masked robot wearing a green cloak.

Shaking his head, Bai Ye stepped forward and changed the data, then said:
"No, first of all we took the MK2-type Iron Man armor as a model, which is easier to manufacture, while abandoning the flight capability and its light weight restrictions, and focusing on defense and stability."

"Then, we placed a power backpack behind the power armor, and at the same time changed the laser and repulsion weapons to large-caliber firearms to reduce manufacturing costs."

"Indeed, although repulsion weapons are powerful, their manufacturing and maintenance costs are very high. Large-caliber firearms are more flexible and economical." The craftsman nodded in agreement.

The two of them talked to each other, constantly putting forward new ideas and improvement plans, and in the holographic image, the image of the power armor was also constantly changing.

As they communicated, the design of the power armor gradually became richer, and new functions and equipment were incorporated into it.

Finally, the image of the formed power armor is presented in the holographic projection.

It is tall and powerful, with a bright golden light all over its body. Compared with the blueprint of MK2, its appearance has undergone tremendous changes. Now it is stronger, larger, and full of power.

On the back of the power armor, a huge power backpack stood conspicuously, and the legs were covered by a slightly thicker metal deck.

"What's the name for the beauty?" the craftsman muttered to himself looking at the golden figure in the video.

Bai Ye thought for a while and replied:

"Thunder Power Armor, the person wearing it is called a Thunder Warrior."
