That tight, sucking feeling came from the sand.
She felt like she was stuck in a hard quagmire, with pressure coming from all sides, wrapping her tightly and making her unable to move.
"Sister, come up quickly." Gao Fei didn't know what Lin Fan was waiting for, he just felt that she was getting deeper and deeper into trouble, and it didn't look good.
Lin Fan didn't want to delay any longer, so he took off the backpack on his back and threw it out with force.
With just two twists and throws, she sank a lot deeper. The quicksand quickly covered her chest, and her arms were about to sink in.
The heavy pressure in her chest made her feel extremely uncomfortable...
"Lin Fan!" Song Ren shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xingchen jumped out of the quicksand pit and landed lightly and steadily behind the few people.
"Are you okay?" Li Chunhua asked.
Xingchen shook his head and took the backpack from Ji Yu's Binglun hand. "This feeling is really uncomfortable."
"You, you've been staying in there for so long." Li Chunhua felt completely relieved when she saw Lin Fan coming up.
"I just want to exercise. Didn't Song Ren say that such extreme events are rare?" Lin Fan said nonchalantly.
She always remembers that her current training is a test of her physical fitness.
It’s not really dangerous anyway, so why not exercise more?
Having said that, Lin Fan’s condition was still not very good when the stars retreated and transformed.
I don’t know if it was because I was tired after so many days or because I was scared after falling into quicksand.
The people in the command vehicle decided that they had already gone through most of the necessary experiences in the past few days. Continuing would be pointless and would be a heavy burden on Lin Fan. So they gave the order to end the desert trip.
This time the field test was generally smooth.
Although Lin Fan lost a layer of skin, his physical condition was greatly improved due to challenging his limits.
Because there was no need to adjust the bionic armor, after giving the group some time to rest, the team got an icebreaker from somewhere and took them to the glacier.
High fever is followed by high cold.
The bionic armor has good adaptability to temperature.
If you want to know how cold the polar regions are, just look at how thickly Lin Fan is dressed.
She wrapped herself up in a thick layer, and moved very unsteadily as she followed the four mechas on the glacier.
She felt she was at a disadvantage. The four people in the bionic armor didn't have to worry about the temperature at all and could move flexibly. Only she, wearing so many layers, found it difficult to even walk.
Fortunately, we unexpectedly saw many animals during the journey.
Seeing penguins and seals in the polar regions is a completely different feeling than seeing them in the zoo.
They even saw polar bears in the distance.
Here, bionic armor also encounters problems.
Because there were large expanses of ice, it was fine when encountering snow-covered areas, allowing for steady movement. However, once the smooth ice surface was clear of snow, the bionic armor would always slip, and walking would be even less stable than Lin Fan wearing snow boots.
The same problem was encountered when climbing up and down. Due to insufficient friction, the bionic armor had great difficulty moving on the ice.
Lin Fan tried transforming into a star and there was no such problem at all.
Because the problem emerged quickly and was confirmed to be a structural design issue, the team did not stay in the polar environment for too long and returned quickly.
After returning, the researchers quickly made adjustments to the structural flaws of the bionic armor and increased the friction of some structures.
At the same time, the development of firearms was completed, and this opportunity was taken to equip it and debug it intensively.
Upon learning that the laser guns were being equipped, the team members stepped up their firearms training...
The weather gradually became hotter and soon it was summer again.
Several members of the 623 Mecha Team took a plane and rose to high altitude again.
The difference from the previous time when they took Lin Fan parachuting was that this time they came up equipped with mechas.
The final environmental test is the aerial project.
Bionic armor cannot fly at will and can only float for short distances, but their performance in the air and airborne performance still need to be tested.
Originally, researchers had tried to add rear wings to the bionic armor to increase its gliding function, but gave up due to various reasons such as material strength and weight.
The four pilots of the bionic armor were all very familiar with skydiving, but this was their first time skydiving while wearing a mecha.
The bionic armors were equipped with special parachutes, but the four people were not very confident as they were trying it for the first time.
You have to know that the bionic armor weighs over 300 kilograms. It is not fun to drop such a heavy piece of metal from a high altitude if the parachute cannot be opened successfully.
This time, Lin Fan was calm and composed. She was already familiar with the flying function and appeared as an escort.
This time they had to jump one by one, and Lin Fan had to follow each of them, making sure the previous one landed safely before coming up to catch the second one.
Because they were equipped with mechas, they chose a parachute jump height of 10,000 meters. Issues like thin air and cold weather didn't need to be considered at all.
Song Ren was the first to jump.
He nodded to Lin Fan, and when she switched to star state, he nodded to the others. He opened the hatch, opened his arms, and rushed out.
After Song Ren got out of the cabin in the floating light, he felt a strong gravity pulling him down. The feeling was completely different from the previous skydiving.
Fortunately, he had received gravity acceleration training in the laboratory before, and the wrapping performance inside the floating light was also good. Except for the initial discomfort, Song Ren quickly adjusted his posture.
"Are you okay?" Xingchen appeared beside him and asked.
That leisurely posture made Song Ren think of the first time he took her skydiving. The person who kept screaming "Wow Wow" was completely different from now.
Come to think of it, it’s only been over two months.
"It's okay." Song Ren's voice was a little breathless.
After finally reaching the parachute opening height, Song Ren pulled open the parachute bag. The huge parachute opened, and the floating light suddenly buffered, slowing down the descent.
As the altitude decreased, the pulling sensation Song Ren felt gradually became less.
As they landed, Fu Guang activated the thrusters on his arms and legs. However, the immense gravity still left deep marks on the ground. Song Ren also nearly fell flat on his face, leaving an undignified impression.
But fortunately, no one is hurt.
After Lin Fan confirmed that he was okay, he flew up again with a "whoosh". When Song Ren looked up, he only saw a small black dot.
That speed is much faster than accompanying him down.
In order to save time, when Song Ren was about to land, Lin Fan gave the order for the second person to jump down.
When she saw the golden mecha shell in mid-air, the other party also saw her.
"Hey, Lin Fan!"
When Li Chunhua jumped, Xingchen was still following Fu Guang below. He followed her instructions out of trust in Lin Fan.
At first, he was being dragged down, and he was very panicked. It wasn't until he saw the white stars appear before his eyes that his heart finally settled down...
So, under Lin Fan's protection, several people successfully tried mecha parachuting without any danger, and gained a new experience of load-bearing rapid descent.
And the stars, after flying flexibly, are required to fly at a faster speed.
Because of the frequent round-trip transportation, many people in the research institute and the flight base knew about these mechas.
Several mechas were undergoing semi-public field tests, and everyone knew that the latest mechas developed by the institute were quite powerful.
Only the truth about Lin Fan's transformation remains top secret.
As Xingchen departs from the research institute and flies rapidly, it often passes over fighter jets being tested in the air at the air base.
With the official unveiling of Project 623 in the research institute, the dynamics of several mechas such as Xingchen were no longer deliberately concealed internally.
Over time, fighter pilots have witnessed the latest development from the neighboring research institute: a white mecha with exceptional performance, unmatched in its flight capabilities. They can't help but yearn for mecha pilots, and at the same time, they're curious about the pilots inside. They're eager to find a chance to see it up close.
At extreme speeds, stars can reach speeds comparable to rockets. Researchers felt this wasn't the upper limit of star speed, but further speed testing beyond practical applications was meaningless, so they discontinued further testing.
By this time, Lin Fan's control over his flying abilities had become increasingly proficient, allowing him to control his speed at will. His strength was also flexible, allowing him to hold an egg or shatter a rock slab with his might...
As Lin Fan becomes more and more proficient in controlling the stars, the standby time can be stabilized at 2 hours.
At this moment, someone in the research team suggested that since stars are so fast and can withstand high temperatures, can they fly directly into space?
Why don't these researchers go to the sky?
