Chapter 459 The alien ranch plan

8days ago Celebrity fiction 13
The blue cold light flashed and the elevator fell rapidly.

Soon, the red indicator light jumped green and the elevator stopped at the bottom 1,000 meters below.

After walking to the gate of the shelter, Jiang Chen entered several passwords on the door, then pulled out the data cable inside and connected it directly to the EP.

Genetic encoding is confirmed, welcome back, Mr. Manager.

The shelter gate is starting...

Jiang Chen pulled off the data cable and took two steps back.

Soon, with the dull sound, the circular door panel in front of him slowly moved away.

Behind that door, Xu Lu, the executive officer of Camp No. 27, was already waiting there.

When she saw Jiang Chen, she bowed with a smile and welcomed Jiang Chen into the shelter.

The alien tide has ended, so let’s arrange people to return to the surface.

So fast?Xu Lu said in surprise, but soon she returned to her smiling face. I'll prepare now.

After saying goodbye to Xu Lu, Jiang Chen led the two guards behind him to the Mechanical Research Institute in Sanctuary No. 27, and found Fang Weixian who was busy drawing pictures inside.

marshal?Why did you come in person?Fang Wei first pushed away the drawing tablet in his hand and greeted him with a smile.

Well, I want to show you something and then refer to your suggestions.After saying that, Jiang Chen made a gesture to the guards behind him.

The guard nodded, placed the two boxes in his hand on the table, and then retreated behind Jiang Chen.

This is?Fang Wei frowned slightly, walked to the edge of the box, and reached out to open it.

After seeing the things in the box, he was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise.

Mechanical exoskeleton…Gauss rifle?!

Comes with an optically invisible mechanical exoskeleton.Jiang Chen added.

A glimmer of interest flashed in his eyes. Fang Wei first reached out to search the fragments of the mechanical exoskeleton, and then looked at the wreckage of the Gauss rifle.

I hope you can restore the technology in it. Can it be done?

I can give it a try, it shouldn't be very difficult.Fang Wei first moved the two boxes next to a scanner, scanned the parts structure, restored the lost parts, and then simulated the design plan with a quantum computer, and finally set up the production process.

Can it be produced on a large scale?Jiang Chen asked.

Not very easy.Fang Wei shook his head first, saying that many things can only be recycled, such as the Fifty-type electromagnetic gun in the base, where many parts cannot be produced from beginning to end.If the parts are not recycled, 3D printing technology can only be used.

3D printing technology in the 22nd century is already quite mature, and there are no problems with strength, precision and material limitations faced in the early 21st century.

However, even so, 3D printing technology is still an expensive technology.

For example, before the war, if a thunder rifle was produced using a normal military production line, the price might be less than 10,000 US dollars, but if the rifle was made using 3D printing technology, the price would be at least 100,000 US dollars, and the cost would not be increased due to the expansion of production.

In the wasteland, due to the collapse of the industrial system, survivors also use 3D printing techniques for some parts that cannot be processed.

It's like a T-3 sexual power armor, at least 6,000 of the tens of thousands of parts are produced through 3D printing technology and then assembled manually.

This is also why power armor is so expensive.

If you use power armor to produce a Gauss rifle, what is your estimated cost?Jiang Chen asked casually.

The cost is mainly reflected in energy consumption and material loss. If it is produced entirely by 3D printing technology... one rifle will probably get 4,000 sub-crystals.The micro high-energy capacitors inside and acceleration tracks are very demanding on materials.Fang Wei first gave an estimate.

Good guy, it's almost half of the T-3's power armor.Jiang Chen said in a dark striking manner.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen spoke: No matter what, you should restore the technology first.It would be a little more expensive.

In addition to being used in the aviation field, this Gauss rifle is also very effective when facing power armor.Its penetration and stability are not comparable to traditional rifles.

Finally, he inspected the production of tanks at the Mechanical Research Institute, and Jiang Chen left here and did not disturb the technicians in the Research Institute.

Leaving the Mechanical Research Institute, Jiang Chen then went to the Biological Research Institute not far from here and found the biological scientists who were not very popular in the shelter.

When Jiang Chen walked into the research institute, he saw the scientists in white coats pointing around a cultivation pot, his face filled with creepy excitement.

As for why they are creepy, it is entirely because they look so much like Frankenstein in the comics.

The study of life has always been a taboo in the field of science, and its dangerous significance is no less than that of advanced artificial intelligence.

However, in the wasteland, all scientific research laws no longer apply, so they have the ability to freely exert their imagination.

What are you looking at?Walking behind Wang Fangping, Jiang Chen patted his shoulder.

Wang Fangping was startled and only then did he smile when he saw that it was Jiang Chen. Marshal, the power generation seaweed you told us to study has been completed.

Completed?Jiang Chen was stunned at first, and then a happy expression appeared on his face.

If Xinguo wants to develop the tourism industry, it must minimize thermal power plants.

However, due to the low efficiency of wind energy and solar power generation, the cost of tidal energy generation is too expensive, and nuclear power plants don’t have to think about it at all, so Jiang Chen has always maintained a strong interest in the biopower technology proposed by Wang Fangping.

Not only environmentally friendly, but also cheap. What the Pacific countries do not lack the area of ​​territorial waters.

That's it.Wang Fangping let out aside and made a gesture to the cultivation pot with a smile.

I saw a piece of 3-meter-long seaweed floating in the yellow-green culture tank, and an ultraviolet lamp was hung above the seaweed.The instrument next to it records the ratio of the amount of light of the seaweed to the power generation.

It can be planted in waters of 100 meters, with a maximum power of 1 kilowatt per square meter.The seaweed roots can be connected to the wire, transporting electricity to the onshore transformer, and then incorporated into the power grid.Wang Fangping pointed at the instrument and explained to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction and said: Very good, you did a good job in this matter.All participating researchers will receive 1,000 sub-crystal rewards per person!

Upon hearing this, nine scientists in the institute all showed joy.

1,000 sub-crystals, you should know that the salary of NAC Knight is only 50 sub-crystals per month, and these 1,000 sub-crystals are undoubtedly a huge sum of money.Jiang Chen has never been stingy in investing in scientific research.

Marshal Xie!Wang Fangping took the lead and said gratefully.

You're welcome, I will not be stingy with rewards for anyone who has contributed to NAC.By the way, I still need you to help me with something.I need you to help me cultivate a heterogeneous species that is poorly aggressive, easy to raise, and can quickly accumulate subcrystals.Jiang Chen proposed the main purpose of this trip.

Since the plan to clean up Shanghai has been determined, the source of the ascites has to be found in a different way.

All hunting groups developed by hunting were changed to become mercenaries in escort caravans, and then the factory's sub-crystal source was changed from hunting ground to ranch, and the Eden eco-zone was established in the wasteland to produce food.

Jiang Chen had already outlined this blueprint in his heart, and the first step to realize this plan is to find alien species that are suitable for captive breeding!
