Capítulo 114: Chapter: 114
Arriving at the underground training ground of S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, which has been prepared as a testing site, various monitoring devices such as speedometers, scanners, high-speed cameras, along with target boards and dummies, are all set up and ready.
Following Mark onto the field, Steve has already become proficient in controlling the levitation discs on his feet. Whether it's maintaining a constant speed, accelerating, making turns, or executing abrupt stops, his agility in movement has reached an astonishing level.
"Let's start by testing your maximum speed on straight path and curves." Seeing the 600m by 600m extra-long standard track surrounding the underground training ground, Mark decides on the first test.
Steve nodded. Though he isn't particularly eager to chase after greater power, he can't help but wonder about his current limits when he actually puts on this suit.
As a seasoned soldier, Steve understands the importance of fully mastering one's own strength and abilities in order to have more stable performance and endurance when facing adversity. This is what the ancient saying emphasizes about self-awareness.
On the temporary track set up in the field for testing, Steve takes two deep breaths to relax his mind and body, focusing all his attention on the upcoming test. "I'm ready!"
Mark nodded, raising the starting gun handed to him by a staff member. "On your mark, get set, go!"—Bang!
Whoosh—!
Simultaneous with the sound of the gun, there is the sound of Steve cutting through the air as he takes off. Steve's reaction speed is incredibly fast, allowing the magnetically levitated discs controlled by the neural interface device to respond promptly. Additionally, since there is no need to overcome friction in the bearings when the levitation discs start, after overcoming their own inertia, the overall speed is raised to an extremely high level.
The instruments display that Steve's reaction time at the start is 0.1 seconds, which is the human limit. From a standstill to a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, he only takes 3.8 seconds—a time that is less than half of the world's fastest race cars.
In terms of acceleration time, apart from Formula 1 cars and the most advanced jet fighters, it's hard to find any vehicles that match this time. It's imaginable how powerful the centrifugal force Steve experiences during the initial acceleration is. Withstanding such intensity of centrifugal force, only professional pilots and astronauts, along with individuals like Steve who have undergone superhuman physical enhancement, can achieve it.
In the blink of an eye, the 600-meter straightaway has already reached its end. Approaching the entry of the first curve, Steve leans his body towards the inside of the curve, lowering his center of gravity and providing sufficient centripetal force.
Although he has entered the curve, Steve's speed remains undiminished. Leveraging his exceptional reaction speed and the assistance systems on the suit, Steve even accelerates within the curve, rendering his figure nearly invisible to all the spectators and testers on-site. The deep blue trail left on the track gradually forms a continuous loop, as if Steve has drawn a circle on the runway.
"You can stop now, Captain!" Hearing the increasingly intense sound in his ears, Mark calls an end to this test.
Steve's speed is approaching the sound barrier. In the current testing environment, generating a sonic boom would not only cause severe damage to the testing equipment but also pose a serious risk of injury to the on-site personnel.
Therefore, although Steve has not yet tested the limits of his own abilities and the new equipment, for safety reasons, they have to wait for the next proper arrangement before proceeding with further testing.
Based on the current test data, whether on straightaways or curves, Steve's top speed is no less than 320 meters per second. And this is without reaching his limit. Seeing these results, Mark can't help but be amazed.
By adding an acceleration module to Steve's suit, it can be said that he becomes a human-made projectile. Although it's unlikely to match Quicksilver in terms of speed and endurance, when combined with Captain's battle-hardened experience, exceptional combat abilities, and indestructible Vibranium shield, Steve's overall strength undoubtedly surpasses that of Quicksilver.
"I wonder if I should invent the Battle Power Scouter from 'Dragon Ball' when I have time. That device seems quite convenient." Lost in his thoughts, Mark's mind wandered off again.
"So, how did it go?" Exiting his state of super speed, Steve also feels a bit dizzy. After recovering slightly, he approaches Mark and inquires about the test results.
This question brings Mark back to his senses, and he hands the tablet to Steve, saying, "Take a look. Although we didn't reach the limit, it's definitely a good performance."
.... . ....
After seeing the test data, Steve is also satisfied and eagerly begins the second test of the suit's performance.
The second test is for the defense capabilities of the levitation discs. It goes without saying that the Captain's original shield has helped him overcome numerous life-threatening situations on the battlefields of World War II. This time, the focus is on testing the defense performance of the three additional discs.
Of course, Mark has never disappointed with his creations. The levitation discs, stacked with various advanced technologies, may not reach the level of Vibranium or energy barriers in terms of defense capabilities. However, when facing the powerful XM109 sniper rifle, the bullets fired by the sniper can't even leave a trace of "visited" on the surface of the discs. The defense performance is more than sufficient for the Captain's use.
"This is great! Although these three additional discs don't compare to the Vibranium shield, their performance is impressive. And in conjunction with the four shields in total, my defense has been significantly enhanced."
Steve is extremely satisfied with the upgrades Mark has made to his equipment. He feels no less excitement than when he first received the shield from Howard Stark.
"Don't jump to conclusions just yet. We still need to see the results of the final test. Next, we'll test the throwing effectiveness of the levitation discs," Mark says, staring intently at the levitation discs on Steve's body.
