Chapter 669 That is a living land!

2days ago traverse Novels 5
Among the many institutions in the alliance, the funding of the scientific research team is definitely at the forefront.

Not only because the institution has contracted more than 30% of the players' tasks, but also because every time I pick up good things from the ruins of pre-war civilizations, I can see the improvement of the alliance's hard power with my eyes.

Sanctuary No. 404, browsing room on the B4th floor.

Yin Fangzheng described to Chu Guang with an excited look on his face, the treasures he had found from the pile of garbage he dragged back from the Niuma.

It was a wreckage the size of a palm!When our researchers discovered it, it happened to be stuck on the carbon nanotube of a space elevator, and it almost missed.

If my speculation is correct, this thing should be the structural material on a small and medium-sized spacecraft. What is certain is that even in the prosperity era, it is quite advanced, but unfortunately there is only such a small piece left...

Because there is no information to refer to, I named it without authorization. What do you think of the word Taogang?At present, our laboratory has analyzed its molecular configuration and material structure, and it can be used as a laboratory imitation, but industrial production may still be difficult.

While speaking, Yin Fang showed Chu Guang the shape of the material and the data he had just collected through the beam of light projected by the holographic computer pen.

It seemed as if he guessed that Chu Guang would definitely not understand it. Yin Fang also used the most produced armored steel and A3 aerospace aluminum materials in the alliance as a comparison.

With reference objects, the properties of the material are much more obvious.

Its weight is between armored steel and A3 aerospace aluminum, with hardness above both, and it also has heat resistance and oxidation resistance that both do not have.

The most incredible thing is that its toughness and mechanical impact resistance are more effective than ordinary alloys!

If this were put into the 21st century, it would probably be regarded as falling from an alien spacecraft.

After all, the chemical bond properties and crystal structure of ceramics determine that it does not have an independent slip system innately and cannot resist deformation like metals.

However, this material called ceramic steel exhibits metallic properties while retaining the hardness of the ceramic.

For materials science in the 21st century, not to mention production technology, even the most basic theoretical part is an unestablished singularity.

Even in the prosperous era that can manipulate gravity, spacecraft using this material is rare.It is precisely because of this that Yin was so excited.

Chu Guang did not expect that he could understand the principles of this material, nor did he need to do so.

Of course, there are professionals responsible for technical matters. They only need to know the purpose, performance and production cost of this material.

After briefly understanding the properties of the materials, Chu Guang immediately looked at Yin Fang and asked.

What about using a B7-layer machining center?Can this thing be produced?

Yin Fang coughed gently.

What I mean by laboratory preparation is to use that machining center... Otherwise, we can at most analyze the material properties.

Chu Guang smiled embarrassedly.

So that's it... Then if the equipment from the machining center is used to produce, how much output can be achieved?Is there any hope to apply to our power armor or tanks?

It seemed that he guessed that Chu Guang would ask this, and Yin Fang said with a helpless expression.

If it is a small-scale assembly, I think the problem should not be big.Although this thing is designed for spacecraft, it is not said that it can only be used on spacecraft.As long as you can accept its cost, let alone power armor and tanks, it is no problem to install the exoskeleton.

Hearing Yin Fang's answer, Chu Guang said with a smile.

As long as it is easy to use, the cost is not a problem.

Alliance now has both electricity and mines. How expensive can it be?

What's more, this part of the cost can be transferred to players.

For example, make upgraded ceramic steel armor into paid content!

Taking the Alliance's self-developed and produced Xiaguang Power Armor as an example, the unit price of a Xiaguang is one million silver coins.

If the player is willing to pay 500,000 more silver coins to choose, the armored steel breastplate can be upgraded to the ceramic steel breastplate, which will increase damage resistance and durability by 50% each!

Of course, the specific improvement needs to be tested in the weapon test field. In short, this is the idea.

Looking at Chu Guang, who had already begun to plan how to apply archaeological results to the Alliance Army, Yin Fang coughed gently and said.

Ceramic steel armor is just one of the techniques we recycle from the southern waters, and we are currently thinking about how to design a more economical production process for it.You don’t have to be so impatient. The technology we discovered is far more than just one piece of ceramic steel. Based on my experience, we can pick up at least ten D-level technologies that we don’t have from this batch of ‘dashed’, and at least!

Not only that, the investigation of coastal urban relics in the Baiyue Province also helps us restore the experience and knowledge outside of engineering such as lifestyles, production methods, etc. in the prosperous era.There are many things worth learning from in it, and they all take enough time to reflect.

...I want to say that it is really a genius idea to build an outpost in the Baiyue Strait, but it is not enough now.We should increase our efforts to develop the southern waters, where there must be many treasures that we have not discovered.

After a pause, Yin Fang looked at Chu Guang and continued.

In order to support the excavation of relics, I hope you can allow our scientific research team to set up an inspection station in the French Fries Port to facilitate our direct screening of salvaged goods and relics materials collected by the local area... This will save us from wasting valuable transportation capacity and bringing back a lot of garbage, and we have to slowly dig out gold from the garbage.

This idea is good. Chu Guang nodded with praise. It happened that the residents of my shelter also proposed it. They hoped that the scientific research team could set up a branch in the French Fries Port to provide technical support for the local ruin exploration team and salvage boats.

For example, experts from the scientific research team screen for goals worth exploring, and prioritize the goals worth exploring, and remove targets that are obviously not searchable from the list.

Previously, local players used to explore the remains with beards and eyebrows, and they chose some landmarks worth exploring for search based on their experience. They would bring back the things they found, no matter whether they are useful or not.

If some professional and capable researchers can be sent to the local area to support the players' exploration work, it will undoubtedly improve the efficiency of players in searching relics and reduce the workload.

At least, it can avoid bringing the toilet ring back as a welded ring.

After hearing Chu Guang's words, Yin Fang immediately nodded and said.

No problem, I will select some staff, and I will send them there at that time.

Chu Guang said with a smile.

Don't worry about this!Although we don’t have the conditions to get you a scientific research ship of the same model as the college, there is still no problem with building a scientific research airship!You are ready to go anytime

By the way, the people who helped us also take it!

Before Chu Guang's voice could be finished, he was interrupted quickly by the sound floating from the door.

I saw a silver-haired Hea passing through the open movable door like a gust of wind and scrambling into the corridor outside the browsing room.

Looking towards the door, Yin Fang noticed the excited expression on Heya's face. Needless to guess, he knew that this guy had probably found some major clues.

Chu Guang raised his eyebrows with interest and was about to ask her what was going on. She sat down on the sofa beside her and stared at him with bright eyes and couldn't wait to speak.

A major discovery!Based on the strain samples brought back from the north coast of the Baiyue Strait by your refuge residents, we found 173 overlapping points and 677 similar points when comparing the genes with the samples collected from Jinchuan Province... But this is not the point. The key point is that we compared several key genes expressing traits. Now it can be basically confirmed that Baiyue Province is the birthplace of Nago!

Hearing this sentence, Yin Fang looked at her in surprise, then frowned and said.

Is Baiyue Province the birthplace of Nago?Are you sure?

Although Yin Fang is not good at research in the field of biology, the situation in Jinchuan Province does not require much biological knowledge to understand it.

The wildly growing Nago will assimilate all organisms into their own puppets and form a fungal domain as terrifying as a plague within a wide area.

It exhibits similar characteristics to the Qingquan City variant slime mold in many aspects, such as the release of spores, the indiscriminate erosion of the organism, etc.

If Nago really originated in the Baiyue Province, it should have long been a breeding ground for Nago breeding. How could the alliance establish outposts or even settlements there?

And the most important thing is that he did not find Nago's mycelium Ah on the waste recycled from Baiyue Province?!

Looking at Yin Fang with a suspicious look, Heya took a deep breath, nodded seriously and said.

I can be almost 100% sure... I know what you are confused about, we are also confused. Why is Nago, which has unscrupulous expansion in Jinchuan Province, performing mediocrely in Baiyue Province, where the climate conditions are more suitable, but the fact is so surprising!And what is even more surprising is that when we studied the genes of the original strain, we immediately discovered that the original strain of Nago itself is a strain that hybridizes Gaia slime and Earth fungi under natural conditions!

Formed under natural conditions?Yin Fang's eyebrows were twisted together, and he squeezed his chin and fell into deep thought.

Hea nodded seriously and continued.

We previously speculated that Nago was a variety obtained by Torch Church after using the gene bank obtained from Qingquan City’s mother nest. Now it seems that our conclusion is incomplete.The most primitive nago strain itself is a combination of the variant slime fungi and Earth's fungi. They only artificially replaced some of the genes!

This sounded a bit difficult to talk. Chu Guang, who had been listening to the two of them, tried to understand it in his own way.

Simply put, the original Nago was a child of Gaia and Earth. It has both gene A from outside the Earth and gene B provided by a certain fungus on the Earth.

After discovering Nago, the Torch Church found that this thing could help them complete the heavenly plan, so it improved it.

For example, through artificial cultivation, the A1 gene obtained from the parent nest in Qingquan City was inserted into the original Nago nut strain A-B.

The strains that are now flooding in Haiya Province and southern Jinchuan Province are the extremely aggressive A-A1-B type, or simply A1-B type.

But……

Is there any difference?

Chu Guang frowned slightly, just about to ask about the confusion in his heart.However, just as he was about to speak, a trace of enlightenment suddenly exploded into his mind.

Gene A!

Where did the original A gene come from?!

Capturing this detail, Chu Guang almost blurted out subconsciously.

Does the Baiyue Province have a maternal nest?!

Or has it existed before?!

As soon as the words fell, the two and two pairs of eyes looked at him in unison.

Baiyue Province...has there a mother's nest before?Yin Fang was slightly stunned, but he only reacted in an instant, frowned and muttered to himself, so that's it...

That's right!This is the first inference we draw from that specimen!The maternal nest of mutational fungi may exist in Baiyue Province!And this is very likely to be the reason why local survivors disappear from the province!Heya looked at Chu Guang in disbelief and sighed with an incredible look on his face, "Unbelievable, you actually guessed it!"

Chu Guang rolled his eyes and leaned against the sofa and said.

Do I look stupid?Let’s just talk about the key points, where do you think this mother nest may be?

It's here!

While speaking, Hea took out a test tube filled with dark green liquid from his pocket and shook it in front of the two of them.

Yin Fang was startled by her movements and stood up from the sofa with a rub.

Chu Guang was not scared by her actions, but he was stunned when he saw the test tube she was holding in his hand and said after two seconds.

It's right here...what does it mean?

It's this thing in my hand!Extract solution of the original strain of Nanguo!This is the mother nest of Baiyue Province!Hea raised his lips proudly, his bright eyes were full of incredibility and fanaticism. Those guys were simply geniuses!

Trying to understand her incoherent speech, Chu Guang pinched his eyebrows with some headache.

Wait...what are those guys you mean?

Of course it’s those slime molds!Hea said excitedly, Do you still remember?No matter which variant slime mold we have seen before, most of them are like Qingquan City Center or Xiaoyu.They all have the same characteristic, that is, they have a mother nest and a group of child entities, and all individuals share the same consciousness!

Yin Fang swallowed.

I know...and what?

Hea continued speaking quickly.

The maternal nest in Baiyue Province is an exception!It neither chooses parasitic nor symbiosis or assimilation, but becomes them!

…become them?Having guessed something vaguely, Chu Guang's pupils couldn't help but magnify slightly.

Variety slime bacteria have extremely strong environmental adaptability. They can not only flexibly change themselves to adapt to the environment, but are also good at learning from local organisms on the earth.

For example, the mother nest in Qingquan City.

The guy accumulated a lot of combat experience in fighting humans and learned to use biomass energy to drive human armor.

More than that

The guy also imitated powerful alien species on the wasteland such as monsters and death claws, and hatched a powerful special fruit entity.

Actually, this is easy to understand.

The objects that variant slime molds imitate are never just humans or human civilizations, the objects they really imitate are the ecosystem itself.

And the civilization of humans and humans is just a part of this system.

In most cases, humans who master the powerful tools of civilization can gain the upper hand from natural selection, even if there are some outrageously powerful alien species on the wasteland.

Therefore, in most cases, the variant slime mold will imitate more humans and will even penetrate into the level of society and even civilization.

However, the Baiyue Province is an exception.

For whatever reason, local survivors have almost disappeared, replaced by a wealth of diverse species and more intense natural selection.

So it's almost obvious

As a colonist, the mutant slime mold will use as the preferred target for imitation.

That's right!

Heya stared at Chu Guang with bright eyes and nodded to affirm his unspoken guess.

Not only Nago, but also the grass there, the trees there, and the alien species in the woods... All creatures in the entire Baiyue Province are the continuation of that mother nest!They all carry genes from the planet Gaia!

I am not sure yet whether the maternal nest in Baiyue Province has a unified consciousness like the maternal nest in other regions, but its children can obviously no longer be called a child entity, but a separate species with independent consciousness!

It has become them completely, and that is a 'living' land!
