Chapter 2050 – [Salary Lupine (Hopeful) President]

The number of inquiries and applications related to the magic-enhanced suit test reached millions overnight. Inquiries poured in not only from Korea but also from overseas.

Some people used a translator to apply, but there were also people who learned Korean and filled out the application form themselves, perhaps because Korea is in the spotlight these days. Therefore, it seems like the number of people testing needs to be increased.

“Well, the more data, the better. Then, the accuracy will increase.”

“The budget was allocated separately… The response was better than I expected, so I don’t know whether to like it or not.”

“The future will be even more difficult, so what are you worrying about already?”

“Mister, the U.S. Ambassador to Korea has to schedule a meeting urgently. What should I do?”

“… You act so quickly.”

The American ambassador, who had made an appointment through my secretary Jihee, requested a meeting as quickly as possible, probably because it was quite urgent. In the article below, when it comes to defense spending, the United States is the one that cannot catch up even if dozens of countries are added from second to lower.

Moreover, the Earth of this world is divided into China, so there is no opponent to compare with… Even the Sun-Moon God Kingdom, which invests a lot in the military, is far behind in terms of its budget, even if its military strength is good. Even during World War II, this is a country that went to war alone while playing Show Me the Money. How awesome is this?

Has such a country received equipment that can dramatically strengthen the combat power of its infantry? Is it even possible to put it into practice right away after testing and collecting data? I can’t help but turn my eyes away.

Then I had a meeting with the U.S. Ambassador to Korea. He knew my personality well and got straight to the point, asking if I had received separate instructions from the United States.

“Do you have any plans to sell magic power clothing?”

“Well, I can control the quantity of strengthening serum, but since it can be made by crafting it, there is room for abuse if done incorrectly… Moreover, it is not equipment that can be operated alone, so it requires support from Pioneer or Eve to operate properly. It is possible.”

“Is operation impossible without artificial intelligence support?”

“It’s not impossible at all. If we add separate auxiliary programs and human support, it can be sufficiently operated militarily.”

What I am saying is that efficient support through artificial intelligence is not possible, but other than that, it is possible. To be honest, issues related to artificial intelligence were exclusive to Korea, which passed the artificial intelligence human rights bill.

The US Ambassador to Korea’s eyes lit up. In any case, if it can be used militarily, the only thing left is to prove its effectiveness, so I asked about the specifications of the magical power suit.

“I would like to know about the specifications of the magical power suit…”

“I knew that would be the case, so I organized it in a separate document. In fact, it is only a Mark One, so please be mindful of that as it is an issue that may change or change if an improved version is released in the future.”

“Okay… Oh!!! Uptime is up to 3 days?”

“This is only true if you carry out daily tasks without charging. If you use it for military purposes, there will be intense combat, so it will be less than that.”

He looked at the uptime section of the document I gave him. When using this kind of product for military purposes, physical specifications are important, but the most important thing is how long it can operate stably. It seems that they were impressed by the operating time of up to 3 days on a single charge.

By applying the battery technology used by the Pioneers and incorporating magic engineering to maximize efficiency, it has a reasonable operating time even though it is a humanoid device. Of course, we cannot completely ignore the laws of physics, so the more we move, the more we consume, so the more vigorous we move, the less operating time we have.

It is easy to find out because it is displayed on the helmet display like a cell phone battery. Apart from that, there is also a function that says something like ‘Operation time is 3 minutes!!!!’ In a machine voice, which is also exciting.

“Wouldn’t it be possible to operate for a longer period of time by replacing the battery pack?”

“As I mentioned earlier, this is the Mark One that we just made. We may be able to add a battery pack replacement function later.”

“Oh…!!!”

When I heard that I use it while replacing the battery, it reminds me of a robot animation I saw a long time ago. Was it Gear Fighter Shining? There was a fight while replacing the batteries.

If you think about it, that too is a dream. I’ll have to talk to Sion later and ask him to do the battery replacement tactically. Slam!!! And I think the pleasure of replacing the battery pack is quite good even for me, who is not a fan of magic-enhanced clothing.

Anyway, I talked about various things with the U.S. Ambassador to Korea. If a proper finished product is created by collecting a certain amount of data from production to production, it is certain that even the U.S. Secretary of Defense will come, or will come.

“President Choi’s strengthening serum has a similar purpose, but it is something that cannot be solved with money alone. However, in the case of the magic strengthening suit…”

“If sufficient budget and time are given, it is an item that can arm the entire army and increase its average combat power.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

It’s only now that I think about it, but I wonder what on earth I made. No, I made it because my family had a cheat key, but considering the technological prowess of this Earth, isn’t it a fairly fast product?

There are pioneers in magic engineering, so even if it’s not at the level of over-technology, it’s something that will be released at least 20 years later… Well, that’s it. The important thing is to write when you want to.

After talking with the U.S. Ambassador to Korea, he also talks with Korean generals. Since it is an item that can change the current military paradigm, supplying it to our country was a priority.

But can I trust the Korean military? If you were discharged as a sergeant in good health, would you like the military? Even if I eradicated corruption, the military itself is a separate problem.

“The magical power suit is an innovation!!!! It is an innovative equipment that can solve the shortage of manpower due to the falling birth rate and reduction in military spending!!!!”

“Please supply it, President!!!!”

Although I did various things while implementing the birth rate policy, the chronic problem of children not growing up and becoming adults immediately after birth remained.

However, it would have been possible to unify the army and cover it up by reducing the size of the army, but as the number has decreased, it has to be elite… The magic enhanced suit is the same as the equipment that makes that possible. If the president of one’s own country took the lead in making it and then distributing it, it would be reasonable to expect it to be distributed.

“Once we establish a mass production system, we will supply the front-line troops first. I will leave the detailed supply order to you.”

“Yes!!! I will only trust the President!!!!”

I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like lies or lies, so I know that if I say I’ll supply it, I’ll do it. It will take at least a year, but it will be good if it is introduced.

And the recruitment of magic power suit testers was roughly finished. Originally, we planned to recruit about 1,000 people, but there were more people than expected, so we decided to recruit 10,000 people. Of course, since we had a large scale, we decided to take our time and gradually test it.

“Honestly, we gathered in the order of 10 million, but it was a bit difficult to test with only 1,000 people.”

“No, when I saw it before it was millions, but it’s already ten million.”

“Even now, the trend is increasing… Ah, thinking about that, I thought about holding a test drive event in the future. On the other hand, it can also be a tourist resource.”

“For some reason, it feels like every time they go to an event, they bring out military equipment and give it a test drive.”

“It’s not military equipment yet.”

“That’s how it feels.”

There were often events near military bases where people would drive out such equipment and give rides to people. No, even though I worked as a cook this time, it doesn’t mean I’ve never been to an event day.

In any case, people from all over the country as well as overseas flocked to test the magic enhanced suit. Even if it was the same domestically, it was good to earn foreign currency overseas.

Apart from that, the reaction of the testers… Was very positive.

“Ohhhhh!!!!! This is amazing!!!!!”

“The movements are natural and a bit sluggish, but this is powerful…!!!!”

“It feels like driving heavy equipment? You don’t need a license or anything like that!!”

The testers seemed quite happy to see them running and moving around, lifting heavy objects and lightly breaking them. In addition, since we need data related to interpersonal combat… We test it by fighting against opponents wearing magic enhanced suits.

Craudangtang, kwaaaaang!!!

Oh, of course it wasn’t that much of a fuss, but there was no problem. The safety equipment is perfect, with the utmost care being taken.

“Gwae, are you okay!?”

“Yes, it’s okay… But this is fun. Can’t we try it again?”

“…?”

What should I say about this… Roughly a bumper car? Considering the impact of hitting each other, the impact is not non-existent, but it is not fatal. Rather, I could think of it as a thrill.

Probably even if I get shot. It’s just for testing now, so even if we make it suitable, we’ll later switch to something with a bulletproof function, so we’ll be able to guarantee the safety of the passengers and do other things in case of an emergency.

And after the test, the data is synthesized to create a finished product. The number of people tested, which was originally about 1,000, increased to 10,000, and the accuracy increased. Although it may not seem like a big deal, there was a difference between 99% and 99.99%.

“Isn’t the gacha probability 1%? I think the difference between a regular gacha and a Lineage gacha is about 0.001, so big.”

“As we collect more data, it will become more accurate, right?”

“Stability is sufficiently guaranteed as of now, but it will be so when updates are made in the future.”

The completed magic power suit Mark Two began to be mass-produced. The Mark Two, which was created by paying attention to the details of the design and modifying various things based on collected data, was mass-produced and was made to be of practical use to some extent.

However, this is not a finished product. The reason for mass-producing the Mark Two this time was not to distribute it, but to secure more data as a test drive event.

Honestly, you can’t make a product out of something you’ve tested once or twice and sell it. It is best to reduce the probability of problems occurring as much as possible.

“Me too…!!! I’m going to ride it too!!!!!”

“Okay, feel free to ride this.”

“Waaah!!!!”

Only then was Eden able to board the magic enhanced suit. Although she is actually stronger with her bare body, she seems to like the romance that the reinforced suit itself gives her.

But Eden was Eden. She said she moves lightly, but because her specs are better, it feels burdensome for the reinforced suit to follow Eden’s movements. And if left alone, the magical power suit, which could last for three days, stretched out in just one hour.

“Isn’t the battery low?”

“Just as the only person who can beat a dog is a small person, the only person who can beat a machine is a person who is stronger than I.”

“How intensely did you move? It wasn’t the level of a peak expert, but a level comparable to that of a peak expert. Didn’t you get overloaded?”

In response, Mary approaches the magic enhancement suit used by Eden and checks things out. Then, like a doctor pronouncing death, he announced the end of the equipment.

It looks like it’s so messed up that it can’t be used even if it’s repaired. Even if it was a mass-produced version, it cost close to 100 million won to make one… Well, if Eden used it, you don’t have to worry about money.

“Oh my, the circuits and various equipment inside this magic enhanced suit are all damaged, and I’ve used it to the point where I can never move again.”

“Instead, I obtained that much data. It is actually helpful to know what the current maximum limit of the magical power suit is.”

“Eve, what do you mean?”

“Father, don’t you have any aspirations for the ability to move beyond limits, such as lifting the limiters of machines or robots?”

“Ah!!!!!! There’s nothing we can do about that!!!!!!”

“Eve is right. I need to release the limiter or create a separate overclocking mode and apply it to the system.”

“I don’t know if I’ll ever use it, but it’s good to use it properly at least once.”

If the magical power suit is not used, it is so heavy that it becomes a prison rather than armor. If you use overclocking mode, there is a high possibility that you will be isolated and unable to escape or even perform basic functions.

Well, you can either leave only the bare minimum part or force it to be ejected from the reinforced suit right away when used. And the limiter release mode is something I personally wish it had because it is so dreamy.

Even if the military’s desire for reinforced clothing is to increase the average specifications of soldiers, having this function would be quite useful. However, that doesn’t mean the higher-ups can’t use it to the point of self-destruction, so I think we need to put in some conditions.

Anyway, after that, we decided to hold a large-scale test drive event. People who have already tested it have left many positive reviews, so many people are starting to take interest in this event.

-This is the real thing. Damn. I feel like I have become a superhuman.

-Do I feel like I’ve become the Hulk? I feel pleasure because I feel like I can destroy everything.

-If you don’t hit it, it’s a loss. It is said that it will later be used as military equipment for the U.S. Military. If you don’t ride it this time, you don’t know when you will ride it in the future, so you must try it.

-There is talk that this will be supplied to the army as well.

– Haha, I would rather apply to be a security guard at Cheonmuhak Hall than join the military.

Even though no comment unit was mobilized, the reviews were unanimous. Well, it’s something that was prepared with that much intention.

However, if this test drives event was free, there was a high possibility that strange people would flock to it, so we decided to charge a small fee. Roughly 15,000 won? It was a slightly ambiguous amount, but it was at a level where those who wanted to try it would do it and those who wouldn’t would not.

And… The number of people who flocked to the test drive event reached 100,000 on the first day alone. Even if not all of them paid for the test drive, it was enough to cover the cost of the event.

“I can’t stand robots either.”

“It’s good because it’s popular, but… Is this produced to create Cheonmuhakkwan?”

“Even if you go to Moro, you just have to go to Seoul.”

“It’s not just going to Seoul, it’s going in the opposite direction and going around the world to Seoul.”

This was definitely not what I wanted!!! Where on earth did it go wrong?!?!
