Chapter 44 Advantages and Disadvantages of the Mechanical Department

Not long after, Zhou Weiping took the cultist away with him.

Watching the three robots transform back into cars and whizz away, Li Qian turned his attention to Liu Changfeng.

Without hesitation, he immediately asked: "Captain Liu, this should be the standard robot of your Public Security Bureau, right? Why don't you have a contract? Isn't it said that the mechanical department is invincible at the same level?"

Liu Changfeng smiled when he heard this and replied: "The mechanical department is invincible at the same level. This is just a rumor on the Internet. In fact, it is far less exaggerated."

After a pause, he continued: "Of course, the mechanical department is indeed more powerful than the mechanical department at the same level. I don't deny this."

Changing the subject, he continued: "But the mechanical department also has its own problems."

"The advantages of the mechanical department are very obvious, the moves are transparent, the combat power is strong, and there is no need to worry about the cost of raising it." Looking at the direction where the three public security bureau cars left, he said slowly: "But the mechanical department also has two very serious defects."

"In fact, it can't be considered a defect. After all, there is no perfect pet in this world. Next, the two points I want to mention are not so much the defects of the mechanical department as the characteristics of the mechanical department."

"The first is the potential of the mechanical department. ”

“In theory, the mechanical system has infinite potential and can be updated and upgraded without limit, but this is only in theory.”

“In fact, the update and upgrade of the mechanical system is almost entirely dependent on the mechanical module. Not to mention the core energy module or chip module, the cost of upgrading a basic flight module or weapon module alone will be prohibitive.”

“In addition, the high-tech companies of the major federations of Zuxing will occasionally launch the next generation of mechanical modules. When new mechanical modules are launched, whether to follow up or not, if you follow up, your wallet can't afford it, if you don't follow up, your combat effectiveness will lag behind others.”

“So in addition to the saying that the mechanical system has outstanding combat effectiveness at the same level, there is another saying - the exclusive system for local tyrants.”

After listening to Liu Changfeng's explanation, Li Qian showed a look of realization, and then some doubts emerged, "What about the Crazy Dragon No. 3 just now?"

“Although the combat effectiveness of the three car robots just now is strong, in fact, according to the existing mechanical modules, there is not much potential left.”

In this regard, Liu Changfeng's statement is consistent with what Li Qian saw.

Judging from the information Zhou Weiping had detected with the True Vision Eye, the potential of Crazy Dragon III was indeed not high, and it had only reached the third level of Commander.

At first, Li Qian was a little confused.

With so many skills, Crazy Dragon III's potential was definitely more than the third level of Commander.

Now after listening to Liu Changfeng's explanation, he understood.

It turned out that its existing mechanical module could only support it to the third level of Commander.

"In addition, the mechanical department is different from other departments. It can communicate through AI glasses or other electronic devices with similar functions, and there is no language barrier. It can also transform into various means of transportation, such as cars and airplanes. Therefore, most mechanical departments can exert most of their combat power even without a contract."

"Of course, compared with a direct contract, the combat power will definitely be reduced."

"So although I don't have a contract with the mechanical department, when performing tasks, I can completely apply for support from the mechanical department pets of the headquarters, or control them to fight."

"Compared with a direct contract, there is a gap, but it is not big."

"The Crazy Dragon No. 3 you just saw is also in this situation."

"That Zhou Weiping actually did not contract Crazy Dragon No. 3."

After hearing this, Li Qian couldn't help but nodded slightly, and he had a general understanding of the mechanical department.

After Li Qian had digested the information for a while, Liu Changfeng extended his second finger again, and then said: "Secondly, that is the second defect."

"If you want to unleash the full potential of the mechanical department, the requirements for the beastmaster are not low."

"Otherwise, the mechanical department's beastmaster cannot be called a mechanic alone."

Li Qian couldn't help showing curiosity when he heard this, "What are the specific requirements?"

"If you want to become a strong mechanic, you must have strong professional capabilities in both software and hardware."

Liu Changfeng continued to explain to Li Qian, "This is why almost all mechanics are beastmasters with high IQ and high education."

Got it!

It seems that not everyone can take the path of a mechanic.

Of course, those who make a contract casually and don't expect to have much achievement are excluded.

But this kind of beastmaster should not be called a mechanic.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Qian also understood the connection.

Mechanical pets are the product of high technology. If you want to play with mechanical pets, you must be proficient in both software and hardware, or at least be a high-tech talent.

Originally, Li Qian was planning to contract a mechanical pet in the future.

After listening to Liu Changfeng's explanation, he suddenly felt that he had to think about this matter again.

However, it seems to be a good choice to not have a contract like Crazy Dragon No. 3.

Shaking his head and not thinking about it, Li Qian got the conversation back on track. Liu Changfeng explained such a big doubt to him, and he had to give him a reassurance.

"Thank you, Captain Liu, for solving a doubt in my heart. By the way, don't worry about the matter of the Green Scale Dragon, I will be responsible for it."

After a pause and thinking about it for a while, he gave a time point, "I will try to complete the evolution before July 1st."

"It's nothing, these things, you will soon understand after you go to the Beast Taming University." Liu Changfeng smiled, "As for the matter of the Green Scale Dragon, since it is handed over to you, I am sure I trust and rest assured."

The two chatted for a while, and Liu Changfeng left.

In this regard, Li Qian did not try to keep him.

After all, Liu Changfeng is the captain of the special operations team of the municipal public security bureau. On weekdays, he must be very busy with work and does not have much time to waste here.

After Liu Changfeng left, Li Qian immediately called up the task panel to check.

[Scientific research task: The second evolution of Koi]

[Current task progress 87%]

"Two points of progress have been added!"

Li Qian muttered to himself, and then began to recall that these two points of progress seemed to have increased when he just saw the violent salamander.

At that time, the matter was urgent and he didn't check it at all. Now thinking back, there must be some connection.

Saw the violent salamander.

The task progress increased.

Could it be that the second evolution of Koi is the violent salamander.

It is said that the potential of the violent salamander has just reached the first level of the Overlord. If so, is there any value in continuing to study it?

Shaking his head, Li Qian soon denied this idea.

He tended to believe that the second evolution of Koi was a salamander pet, not a violent salamander.

Otherwise, the task progress should not have increased by only 2%.

An increase of only two points can only prove that there is most likely only a correlation between the two, rather than a direct equation.
