From scrap mecha to science fiction paradise

Chapter 21 Driving Skills

"What about yourself? Do you think you are a pilot or an engineer?"

Old man Zhang continued to laugh.

"I?"

Lin Yu glanced sideways at Old Man Zhang and said calmly: "It's both, I'm not bad at martial arts."

"Haha, I really didn't see that."

Old man Zhang glanced at Lin Yu's body, which was not thin but had no trace of exercise, and laughed.

After laughing, he continued: "Engineers need knowledge and creativity, but pilots are warriors, requiring character and force, but force is more than fighting and shooting, otherwise pilots would not become an independent profession and discipline. "

"Elaborate."

Lin Yu tilted his head slightly, then complimented him at the right time, asking Old Man Zhang to continue speaking.

Although he didn't have the intention to follow others, he was not stupid either. He knew that this old man was probably a mecha master with an extraordinary background, so he was naturally willing to listen to his experience.

"Nowadays, even the worst mechas at least have a somatosensory interaction system, so most of the driving operations have been abandoned. The demand for pilots is more focused on the pilot's own combat skills and experience."

As Old Man Zhang narrated, he changed the subject: "But normal combat skills and the combat skills required by pilots are not completely interoperable.

When we control the mecha, we can often make actions that go against common sense, and exert completely different powers.

Propulsors, anti-gravity, repulsion, inertia, gravity in the natural environment, gravity, etc. will all become factors that affect combat, so combat skills also need to be changed and adapted.

In addition to combat skills, pilots still have a lot to master.

For example, the reading and application of various instruments and detection data, cooperation with airborne intelligence, scheduling of fire control systems, operation of various armed modules, flight, air and space combat, all-round three-dimensional combat in space, and super vision From the battle..."

"You triggered the skill acquisition clue - mecha piloting."

"Get clues - Fighting: [Fighting] skill must reach at least LV1."

"Get clues - Shooting: [Shooting] skill must reach at least LV1."

"Get clues - theory review: read and master the basic textbooks related to the pilot profession. (Expand to view the table of contents)"

"Get clues - driver's license assessment: pilot a mecha to complete at least one evenly matched battle and win."

The light blue panel appeared silently in front of my eyes.

Looking at the information prompts that appeared on the panel, Lin Yu's favorable impression of the nagging old man Zhang suddenly increased sharply.

Good man!
After some nagging, he actually sent me a skill clue.

It is still the mecha pilot that is most needed.

"so?"

For the sake of skill clues, Lin Yu continued to act as a qualified listener.

"So, hey, you should have figured it out, old man, I am the legendary S-class ace mecha master, a hidden master."

Old Man Zhang smiled and rubbed his hands, his face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum: "How about it? Do you want to become my teacher?"

"Can you get me a top-notch mecha, or give me a billion or eighty million pocket money?"

Lin Yu asked.

"One billion and eight billion? You want me and you still want it! Old man, if I have one billion and eight billion, will I be reduced to collecting scraps in the wasteland?"

Old man Zhang's eyes widened when he heard this.

"Then do you have any strong connections to arrange a good way out for me?"

Lin Yu thought for a while and lowered his demands: "I don't want too much. First, get me federal citizenship, and then cure me of the star disease."

"Uh...ahem, this..."

Old man Zhang coughed awkwardly.

Lin Yu rolled his eyes: "Then you can teach some basic theoretical courses for pilots, right?"

"Basic theory class?"

Probably because of the difficulty of the conditions from heaven to earth, Old Man Zhang was stunned for a moment when he was asked.

Then he realized what he was doing and was overjoyed. This kid seems to understand the value of the old man and me, and he originally wanted to become a disciple.

That's for sure.

No, let us step down again and again.

From asking for one billion to eighty billion to just solving the identity problem, now it is even said that it only needs to teach basic theoretical courses.

It's appropriate, considering that the old man Zhao Xing is hanging around, but the old man doesn't want to talk to him.

"What is there to learn about this thing? Old man, I am a practical person. I have gained experience in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The safekeeping I teach you is the most practical thing."

Old Man Zhang became reserved and turned his hands behind his back to show his superior attitude. After boasting, he waved his hand again: "As for the basic theory, if you are interested in the things in books, you can find some videos and documents to study on your own."

"That's it."

Lin Yu suddenly lost interest and rolled his eyes indifferently.

The clues for acquiring mecha piloting skills have been obtained.

All that remains is to complete the upgrade requirements to acquire and improve skills.

And it is the most complete and comprehensive one.

This old man couldn't even teach the basic theory of completing the requirements. He really couldn't think of any reason why he should become a disciple.

"Uh……"

The teacher's attitude that Old Man Zhang had just served suddenly froze on his face.

Immediately he said in shock: "You, you don't want to become my teacher?"

"If you can't even teach basic theory, what use do I need from you?"

Lin Yu continued to roll his eyes.

"Just take your time and read the theory. I can teach you shooting, fighting, mecha driving and various practical experience."

Old man Zhang said.

"As I said, my martial arts skills are not bad."

Lin Yu shrugged.

Although the fighting and shooting skills have not been unlocked, by switching Lu Bu's personality, he is equivalent to having "Lu Bu"-like fighting and shooting skills, as well as various combat experiences in the cold weapon era.

It is true that according to Old Man Zhang, these are not completely applicable to mechas and modern battlefields, but they are enough to meet most current needs. You don't need to worry about these when you unlock mecha driving skills in the future.

"you you!"

Old man Zhang was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, and was choked for a moment.

From Lin Yu's own point of view, there was no problem, but the two sides' perspectives were different, which was tantamount to talking between chickens and ducks, which naturally made him very angry.

Especially the reason for rejection! Do you dare to be more perfunctory!
"Hey, Mr. Zhang, so you are here. I have been looking for you for a while. I have some doubts that I haven't been able to figure out. I would like to ask Mr. Zhang for your guidance..."

Zhao Xing walked quickly from a distance.

However, it was obvious that he had chosen the wrong time.

"No time."

Old man Zhang groaned angrily, like a child who failed to ask for candy. He glared at Zhao Xing and walked away.

"Uh...it's okay. Let's talk about it later when you have time."

Zhao Xing showed an awkward yet polite smile and watched Old Man Zhang leave.

Probably because he felt a little worried on his face, he looked at Lin Yu again and said, "Brother Lin, were you chatting with Mr. Zhang just now? What were they talking about?"

"It's nothing. I also wanted to ask the pilot about the basic theory, but he didn't teach me."

Lin Yu really couldn't bear to dampen other people's enthusiasm, so he spread his hands.

"Oh, that's it, that's it. A legendary figure like Mr. Zhang naturally has the arrogance and eccentricities of a legendary figure..."

Zhao Xing immediately got off the donkey along the slope and breathed a sigh of relief.
