Chapter 212 The javelin that breaks the sound barrier!
After sending the message to his friends in the world, Chen Jue received an unfamiliar call on his mobile phone. After picking up the phone and chatting for a few sentences, he found out that it was an engineer from the base equipment department arranged by Mr. Zhong. From the sound of her voice, it was a female. Out of curiosity, Chen Jue went to the equipment testing site where they had agreed to meet.
As we get closer to the secret launch, I have many ideas about the equipment for landing on our second home.
It took more than ten minutes to reach the agreed place, and Chen Jue met the female engineer.
The other person was about 30 years old, 165cm tall, wearing thin-rimmed glasses, with light blond hair, an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, big eyes, and a straight nose. Although she was wearing a beige coat, it couldn't hide her graceful figure. The pair of round and slender legs exposed from the hem of the coat were covered with tight jeans and a pair of casual sports shoes. She exuded an intellectual and cool temperament.
Seeing Chen Jue appear, the female engineer extended her hand to him and introduced herself: "Are you the special candidate Chen Jue? My name is Zou Ying, and everyone in the equipment department calls me Engineer Zou. I just contacted you on the phone. It's our first meeting and I'm glad to meet you."
"Hello, Mr. Zou." Chen Jue shook hands with the other party, and something in his heart began to murmur.
I thought I would meet a mature and experienced male engineer in his forties or fifties, but I didn't expect that the person sent by Mr. Zhong would be such a beautiful female engineer.
"Maybe I'm judging people by their appearance!" Chen Dezhong thought to himself, and used the enhanced divine perception of [Holy Heart] to observe the other party's mental fluctuations.
I found that Zou Ying was emitting a sense of curiosity, exploration, and desire for knowledge, and her eyes were constantly looking at me.
Probably because he knew Chen Jue's identity as a special candidate and the series of amazing feats Chen Jue performed after coming to the base, the other party had long wanted to personally test the limits of Chen Jue's physical fitness.
Just in time for the opportunity to tailor-make equipment for Chen Jue, Zou Ying came in person.
"Chen Jue, I heard from Elder Zhong that you can break the alloy weapon developed by our department with your bare hands."
"And that third-generation dynamometer was blown up by your punch. May I ask how you trained to this level?"
"Normally speaking, there are limits to the growth of human physical fitness. Your physical data have completely exceeded the limits of the human species. Is it because of the ten body-building moves you compiled?" Zou Ying asked with curiosity in her eyes.
Being asked so bluntly by the other party, Chen Jue was slightly stunned. He couldn't tell the other party that he had an attribute panel, right? After thinking about it, he replied: "It should be that I am gifted! Just like the ancient king who lifted the tripod and Li Cunxiao who pulled five horses without distinction, it can be regarded as a kind of innate supernatural power. In addition, I have practiced the ten body-building styles to reach this level now."
"Born with supernatural powers?"
"I think it's more than that! The various data you left in the training ground, including nerve reflexes, running speed, etc., have greatly exceeded the human limit. Innate supernatural power alone can't fool me."
"And the equipment draft you made. Without a very high IQ, it is impossible to come up with such a novel design. Even the staff in our equipment department were amazed at your ideas when they saw them." Zou Ying obviously didn't believe Chen Jue's excuses.
However, considering personal privacy, Zou Ying did not ask any more questions. Instead, he took out a palm-wide cylindrical metal device from his coat pocket and introduced it: "This is the latest retractable alloy javelin designed based on your opinion. Try its strength to see if it meets your requirements."
Zou Ying then handed the cylindrical device to Chen Jue. Chen Jue touched it, weighed it and found that it weighed about 5 kilograms.
There was a mechanism button in the middle of the device, which was pressed hard. With a click, just like the telescopic umbrella commonly seen on the market, pointed metal poles mechanically popped out from both sides of the cylindrical device and transformed into a black metal javelin.
There was no visible gap in the telescopic structure on the surface of the javelin, which clearly showed that it was manufactured with extremely high precision, completely in line with the concept of a long-range weapon that he had proposed.
Chen Jue's melee combat ability was already unrivaled in ancient and modern times, but he just happened to lack long-range ability, so he raised his ideas. Unexpectedly, the equipment department of the base acted so quickly and produced the samples overnight.
"Can I try it?" Chen Jue asked after playing with the special alloy javelin.
"Feel free to try it! This weapon was originally tailor-made for you." Zou Ying shrugged and made a please-go expression.
Chen Jue walked into the equipment testing site with a javelin in his hand. He stood about a hundred meters away, holding the javelin, aiming at a cross target made of alloy in the distance, took a deep breath, raised his hand and threw it with force.
"Bang!!!"
The moment the alloy javelin left Chen Jue's hand, it actually created a white shock wave like that of an airplane breaking the sound barrier. Then, with a loud bang, a huge metal tear was directly pierced in the cross target. The javelin even penetrated the alloy target that was tens of centimeters thick and sank directly into the cement, reinforced concrete wall behind it.
Just like an armor-piercing bullet fired from an electromagnetic cannon, it directly blew a huge hole in the wall and raised a cloud of smoke and dust .
Seeing this scene, Zou Ying, who was standing far away, had already opened her mouth wide and subconsciously raised her hands to cover her ears. Her ears turned red due to the loud noise. She was obviously also shocked by Chen Jue's violent throw.
Although Zou Ying had made some mental preparation before coming, after observing Chen Jue's incredible power up close, his brain immediately went into a state of mental failure.
Fortunately, she was an engineer doing research and development, and had experienced all kinds of bizarre and strange projects. She quickly regained her composure, swallowed her saliva, and asked, "You... this... Chen Jue! Did you break the sound barrier directly when you threw the javelin just now?"
"That should be it! The speed of sound is only 331.4 meters per second. I just estimated the initial speed of the javelin, and it should be about 3 to 4 times the speed of sound." Chen Jue nodded and spoke frankly. He has now awakened the status bonus of [Clairvoyance], which has greatly improved his visual ability.
By making a rough estimate in your mind of the distance and time the javelin flies, you can calculate its initial speed.
"3 to 4 times the speed of sound?"
"A javelin that travels at Mach 4... It's almost as fast as a bullet from a sniper rifle! No wonder you asked us to customize such a javelin for you. When this telescopic javelin falls into your hands, its power is almost as strong as that of a missile!" Zou Ying's eyes widened , and he looked a little excited, and began to analyze.
Then he ordered the staff nearby to pull out the javelin that was embedded in the wall, wiped the dust off the outside of the javelin with a handkerchief, and pulled Chen Jue to observe it together.
It was found that except for the tip of the javelin that stabbed the target and the wall, which was slightly deformed, the other end and the javelin itself were intact.
"The tip material needs to be strengthened. If used properly, it can be recycled and reused."
"Why don't you try its stiffness?"
"If you encounter special situations, you need to use it as a stick to swing and hit..." Zou Ying said and handed the javelin to Chen Jue again.
"Okay, I'll try." Chen Jue took it, held both ends and broke them hard. In front of Engineer Zou, he broke the telescopic javelin made of special alloy into two pieces with a crunching sound.
The scene was no different from an ordinary person breaking a chopstick, and this javelin was telescopic, hollow inside with an elastic device. When Chen Jue broke it, a lot of tiny parts popped out from it. Zou Ying's eyelids twitched wildly, and she felt that the handsome guy in front of her was simply inhuman!
"This is the latest version of the special alloy formula! How can it break so easily?"
"This... is this still a human being?" Zou Ying took the javelin that was broken into two pieces. She felt a mixture of emotions in her heart and her eyes became a little complicated when she looked at Chen Jue.
Her current mood is just like those designers in the market who have encountered an extremely outrageous and perverted client. All the various design proposals they have put forward have been rejected by the client without any respect and require a new design.
Moreover, the other party's requirements were not unrealistic. Instead, they pointed out some shortcomings in the design plan based on their own needs, which made her, the deputy chief engineer of the equipment department, lose her temper at all.
"Huff!" Zou Ying stared at the broken javelin in his hand for a long time, then took a deep breath and said to Chen Jue: "You are worthy of being the only special grade! Chen Jue, your situation is beyond my expectations."
"Let's go! Follow me directly to the equipment building. I want the team to tailor a plan for you that exceeds your expectations! From head to toe, we will arm you to the teeth! Let you be the strongest human in your second home!"
