"The Black Star Alliance army is about to invade, and I must learn the necessary knowledge before they arrive," Gu Ya stated earnestly.
Liang Xun and Fu Fei looked at Gu Ya in surprise.
"Who told you?" Liang Xun asked with a touch of surprise.
Gu Ya replied, "According to some domestic news, and analyses of the Lou Hai Campaign and the Desolate Frontier Campaign. I estimate that the Black Star forces will definitely launch a large-scale invasion war within the next few months."
"Also, the application of the mecha pilot rating system and the War God selection competition. Four new War Gods have been selected."
"These are all signals of a major war."
Liang Xun smiled and said, "I've also heard some rumors of war, especially after the War God selection competition."
"There's an important inside story regarding the War God selection. Do you know why Xian Xia wants to select thirty-six War Gods?"
Gu Ya and Fu Fei both shook their heads. Fu Fei, in particular, had never heard Liang Xun talk about war before.
Liang Xun said, "According to reliable intelligence, the Star Sinking Army of the Black Star Empire has selected thirty-six mecha pilots with extremely high combat power and has custom-made new exclusive mechs for them."
"In the future, Xian Xia's War Gods may have to participate in frontal combat."
This news was indeed somewhat unexpected for Gu Ya.
Gu Ya recalled Wang Shangmeng mentioning that War Gods would not easily appear on the front lines.
Once a War God appeared in a war zone, it would be an overwhelming blow to the enemy, and the enemy would definitely dispatch mecha and mecha pilots with corresponding combat power.
Regardless of who won, the victor would carry out a massacre, and the loser would suffer a devastating blow.
Therefore, in the past, War Gods were merely powerful weapons held by various countries, much like nuclear bombs in the original world—not to be used, but to be possessed.
If, as Liang Xun said, the War Gods collectively appeared on the battlefield to go head-to-head with the Black Star Army's extremely high-combat-power mechs, what would that scene be like?
Whether on the land of Xian Xia, in some country in the endless sea, or in the Black Star Empire, it would be a nation-destroying war scenario.
With the current combat power of the War Gods, the exclusive mechs of five War Gods could destroy a super-large city similar to Wu He City.
War would no longer be won by overwhelming military strength and superior tactics as in the past.
Strategic deployments would definitely revolve around each War God.
Individuals like Gu Ya, who possessed War God-level strength but were temporarily operating at a quasi-War God level, would undoubtedly be highly valued by Xian Xia.
Gu Ya nodded and said, "That's why I need to intensify my studies even more. Instructor, I have another question regarding attack resonance materials."
Liang Xun chuckled twice and said, "I knew you would ask this. Here are the papers and reports on attack resonance materials. And your long-desired confidential textbooks are also included."
Gu Ya took the micro-storage disk handed over by Liang Xun. After thinking for a long time, he said solemnly, "Thank you, Instructor."
...
As soon as he returned to his dormitory, Gu Ya sent communications to his three sisters at home.
"Sorry, Youyou, I won't be able to make it back for your birthday. Don't ask, it's confidential."
In another 16 days, Gu Ya would celebrate his 19th birthday, and Youyou would turn 13.
But he was powerless, and the situation was already pressing.
If he didn't work hard now, how could he fight fiercely against the enemy on the battlefield and protect the people he loved?
After settling his family matters, Gu Ya also began to dedicate himself to self-study and research.
First, he needed to solve the problem of attack resonance materials that had been bothering him for months.
If Black Star walkers appeared piloting extremely high-combat-power mechs equipped with attack resonance materials, who else could completely resolve it besides Gu Ya's "Code Tampering" skill?
However, after spending a day and a night studying the papers and reports on attack resonance materials,
He first felt relieved, and then fell into deep confusion.
The relief came because no material in the world could achieve the effect of attack resonance on its own.
Initially, the intelligence department provided this term, stating only that the Black Star Empire had developed a material that could resist all offensive methods.
Just as Instructor Liang Xun and a group of scientists were researching attack resonance materials, Xu Jie's black mech coincidentally appeared in the Lou Hai Campaign.
After Gu Ya defeated the black mech, Xian Xia also obtained the first-hand research specimen and gradually unlocked the secret of attack resonance.
It was not a matter of material science, but a matter of consciousness.
That's right, it was the field researched by Gu Hui and the eleven scientists who followed him.
This was also why Special Division Nine was so insistent on capturing Gu Ya.
The foundational theory for all of this originated from the Black Star agents who had stolen Gu Hui's research data years ago.
And the secret of attack resonance materials was:
First, through consciousness connection, the mecha pilot's consciousness is fully integrated with the mech, allowing for intuitive and conscious control of the mech.
Subsequently, at the moment an offensive attack hits the armor, the mech system's super-computing power calculates the frequency of the attacking weapon, activating the active material armor to synchronize with the attack frequency, thereby canceling the effect of the attacking weapon.
This technology initially did not require the assistance of a mecha pilot, but after numerous experiments, Black Star scientists discovered that a super-computing power computer alone could not achieve true recognition.
Computers, unlike humans, could not experience fear or pain.
That is, humans are alive, and objects are dead.
Only a living person with a clear consciousness could generate a strong and irreversible resistance to pain, thereby stimulating the computer's super-computing efficiency.
This required a mecha pilot with strong willpower.
Undoubtedly, Xu Jie achieved this.
He became an outstanding among the numerous experimental mice.
It was conceivable how immense the pain he experienced when attacked by countless long-range weapons and beam close-combat weapons was; it was definitely a level that a normal person could not understand or endure.
From consciousness transmission, to active armor, to supercomputers, and mecha pilots with powerful wills,
This entire system supported the so-called "attack resonance materials."
The above is the explanation from the scientific and technical fields.
Next, it concerns the theory of what the War Gods called "catching a blade bare-handed," which was also one of the research directions for attack resonance.
Currently, the only one capable of performing this operation technique was the foremost War God of Xian Xia.
In the reports about him, only one word caught Gu Ya's attention: "Attack Synchronization."
The rest of the report content held no further reference value.
Gu Ya could vaguely grasp the intricacies of various operational methods, but he was still unclear about the actual methods and means.
It seemed that this War God had not revealed his ultimate skills to the world, or perhaps there were more confidential reports that Gu Ya could not access.
"I must find an opportunity to ask him again, and if necessary, I can force him to reveal it," Gu Ya murmured.
After resolving the issue of attack resonance materials,
Gu Ya focused all his attention on the confidential textbook.
The storage disk given to him by Liang Xun contained thousands of research papers, covering a very comprehensive range of topics. It even included sports majors, giving Gu Ya the illusion that "fish also need bicycles."
Facing a sea of papers, Gu Ya rubbed his temples and let out a sigh of relief.
No wonder mecha mechanics were the most difficult profession, and battlefield mecha mechanics were the most prominent among them.
After studying those 280,000 pages of textbooks, one still had to research these thousands of paper materials.
If it were a diligent ordinary student, they would likely be 30 years old after completing the research.
One could imagine what kind of genius figures Instructor Liang Xun, who was not yet 30 years old, and her disciple, the young boy named Fu Fei, were.
If Gu Ya did not possess his cheat-like skills, he would not have been able to access this confidential knowledge at this time.
Gu Ya, who had not slept for a day and a night, could no longer resist the drowsiness and hunger.
He hastily ate a little food and then collapsed onto the soft bed, falling into a deep sleep.
He didn't know how long he slept.
In a daze, Gu Ya felt the dormitory door being gently opened.
Following that, a faint sound of footsteps could be heard,
And a wisp of a bitter medicinal smell, which he seemed to have smelled somewhere before but felt somewhat familiar, entered Gu Ya's nostrils.
