Chapter 518: Chapter 335: Mecha of the Beautiful Country_3 Chapter 518: Chapter 335: Mecha of the Beautiful Country_3 “Don’t mention him,” the nearby researchers all bowed their heads, obviously feeling too ashamed.

“Begin the test as soon as possible.”

Judith shook her head, thinking about the recent test of the Daring Mecha, and with a heavy heart, she followed General MacKen along to a safe location before signaling to the other party to start the test.

Soon, a tester climbed up the soft ladder behind the Diamond, one step at a time, reaching the top of the Diamond Mecha’s head, which housed a cockpit with various gears and buttons.

“Our Diamond Mecha stands 16.35 meters tall, rivaling the Tiger Main Battle Mecha showcased during Jieke Company’s military parade, possessing…”

As Kegelo was giving Judith an introduction, the just-activated Diamond Mecha suddenly flipped over.

A literal flip, as the Diamond Mecha attempted to take a step with its hydraulic legs, the massive weight rendered it unable to maintain balance.

Nowadays, humanity faces several challenges in using humanoid robots, one of which is walking. Even human-sized robots struggle to be adjusted to walk like a normal person, let alone such a Mecha, standing over a dozen meters tall and weighing hundreds of tons.

Then, as soon as one foot of the Diamond Mecha touched the ground, sparks flew from its joints.

Next, its body tilted and it crashed heavily from the flatbed trailer onto the ground. Various parts scattered in all directions, black diesel and oil flowing everywhere.

The Mecha’s head on its neck rolled around like an iron ball, detaching and tumbling away, with the pilot inside covered in blood.

Then, black smoke began billowing from various parts of the Mecha, flames appeared, and a large fire engulfed the Mecha as the work crew scrambled for extinguishers and hoses to douse the flames.

“I knew it, thank goodness I was far away,” General Mike said, relieved. If he hadn’t moved away earlier, he might have been hit by flying debris.

Judith remained silent, just staring at Kegelo, making him sweat profusely.

“I’m terribly sorry, truly sorry, Director Judith. There are just too many challenges with heavy Mechas—energy, transmission, intelligent control… We will definitely strive to improve, please believe in us…”

Kegelo rushed over to explain to Judith, who was struggling to express his difficulties.

Although the Diamond Mecha performed poorly just now, that truly was the best that Boston Dynamics could do with a heavy Mecha, even if it was just a prototype that could barely move.

Judith left with a dark expression, thoroughly disappointed in Boston Dynamics.

The result she saw was far from what she’d envisioned for the Mecha, and it lacked any real combat capability.

The only consolation for Judith was that large Mechas were so difficult to operate, clearly indicating major design flaws.

If their side couldn’t develop it, it was likely that Jieke Group was half-baked in this area as well.

In a real battlefield, the Mecha would just be a target; there was no need to worry about their Tiger Main Battle Mecha dominating in every direction.

The Beautiful Country originally planned a series of actions, taking into account the threat of the Tiger Main Battle Mecha.

Now, in Judith’s eyes, even if Jieke Group was somewhat ahead of the Beautiful Country in Mecha technology, they certainly wouldn’t be able to use large Mechas in actual combat.

Otherwise, why had there been no news of the Tiger Main Battle Mecha since the parade? It suggested this large Mecha must also have substantial flaws, allowing them to execute their plans boldly and with confidence.
