Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 447: Absorption and rejection

Views:

Mercury Lake quietly reflects the sun falling in the west, shining like a mirror, illuminating the surrounding area and creating a beautiful scenery.

This obviously does not look like an iron core or a natural vehicle.

Among liquid metals, in Shen Cong's memory, apart from liquid metal that melts at high temperatures, only mercury is liquid at room temperature. Although gallium and cesium are also liquid at room temperature, one requires 29.76 degrees Celsius and the other requires 28.44 degrees Celsius. They are not liquid most of the time.

Only mercury becomes liquid above minus 39 degrees Celsius.

At room temperature, it can also evaporate. Mercury vapor and mercury compounds are mostly chronic and highly toxic. In ancient times, rich people were buried with mercury by pouring mercury into the bodies of boys and girls. The infusion started while they were alive. After the boys and girls died, their skin could still remain fresh and tender. born.

In many legends, mercury has a special status.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the mercury lake in front of me. The viscous liquid metal in this lake is not ordinary mercury, or in other words, it looks like an activated mercury.

Shen Cong looked at Mercury Lake with piercing eyes. His eyes had scanned the lake countless times, trying to find a special place.

He could feel that the mercury lake was emitting strange activity fluctuations, but he could not sense what the fluctuations were: "Is it another special kind of activity wave?"

Visual inspection was useless, so Shen Cong asked instead: "How much do you know about Mercury Lake?"

"I know very little." Miao Huafeng replied. She is a very short woman in her twenties, an iron man, and her talent is second only to Chen Xiuni. "Every time I look at the mercury lake, I feel like drinking it. It feels like it, but obviously you can’t drink it. An iron man drank it before and died.”

Chen Xiuni continued her words: "Later we studied that when this mercury leaves the mercury lake, it quickly corrodes like metal."

Mercury itself is a metal, and if it is really mercury, it will definitely be corroded by the energy escaping from the fire fragments, thereby releasing activity.

"Can you confirm whether it is mercury?"

"No, from the outside, it looks very much like mercury, but judging from the physical properties, it is obviously different from mercury. We don't have the testing equipment, so we can't tell." Miao Huafeng said instead, " But one thing we know for sure is that it has a natural attraction to Ironman, it’s like our car to each other.”

Iron core has a strong attraction to iron people. If you don't know how to restrain the aura of iron core, it will make people embarrassed.

However, in the Eastern War Zone, due to the promotion of active wave utilization, all iron men knew how to hide their own iron core fluctuations, so that they no longer had the feeling of engulfing each other.

This hiding method is obviously not found in the Jimoudai area.

"Tell me all the information you know and the experiments you have done. This is the content of the transaction." Shen Cong was very satisfied with this transaction.

Although the secret of Mercury Lake has not yet been solved, Shen Cong feels that this deal must be a good deal just because it can attract Iron Man.

What can attract the attention of Iron Man must be related to evolution.

Using the biomagnetic theory of the Eastern War Zone, it is assumed that the iron man or iron core must be missing part of the magnetic field, so it needs to supplement its own lack from the outside world.

Mercury is probably the supplement that makes you stronger.

At the moment, Miao Huafeng and Chen Xiuni told Shen Cong all the information they knew about Mercury Lake.

The mercury in Mercury Lake loses its activity after leaving the Mercury Lake and is highly toxic, but there is no harm if you touch it, as long as you don't think of drinking it. And unlike mercury, it does not evaporate at room temperature, producing highly toxic mercury vapor. This lake has been around for more than half a year and has never changed.

It has never been used.

In other words, this is still an undeveloped virgin lake.

In other words, all this information is in vain. Shen Cong has to research the secrets himself.

"I need to stay here for a while. If you have nothing to do, you can leave first. Also, my battle pet is hungry. Give it some iron fruits." Shen Cong quietly used the four-legged dragon to test the settlement.

See if they can poison the food, poison the four-legged dragon.

Chen Xiuni said: "Second sister, please worry about the settlement. I will stay. If Boss Huang has any needs, you can tell me. I also want to know what the secret of Mercury Lake is. It is very important to us Iron Man." .”

Miao Huafeng nodded, said goodbye and left.

The myriad of things happening in the Xihai Park settlement are inseparable from her, the housekeeper.

Chen Xiuni stayed.

Seeing that she didn't leave, Shen Cong instinctively felt a little annoyed. He didn't like others to disturb him, especially when he was concentrating on research, having someone watching him was obviously unsafe behavior.

What if she wants to harm herself

He glanced at Chen Xiuni.

Black boots, camouflage pants, a gray camouflage shirt with a gray front, and two daggers and a small telescope inserted into the waistband of the pants. Wearing fingerless gloves and a ponytail, she has a very stylish figure and looks beautiful. The most important thing is that she looks heroic.

After cleaning, his face looked less tough and more heroic than when he wore camouflage before.

Seeing Shen Cong sizing her up, Chen Xiuni nodded naturally.

Shen Cong said: "Hello."

Chen Xiuni asked: "What?"

"leave me alone."

"What?" Chen Xiuni didn't seem to hear clearly and said it again.

Shen Cong's tone was indifferent without any emotion, and he repeated the same: "Stay away from me."

Chen Xiuni opened her eyes and seemed confused. She took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay." After that, she walked to the other side of Mercury Lake. The lake was not thirty or forty meters apart.

Seeing Chen Xiuni arrive on the other side of the lake, Shen Cong felt a little relaxed, and used his heart seal to communicate with the four-legged dragon: "Xiaosi, don't just play for fun, keep an eye on her for me, and warn me immediately if you try to get close."

"Gulu gulu." The four-legged dragon agreed.

Only then did Shen Cong begin to study Mercury Lake.

He scooped up a spoonful of mercury and began to sense the activity waves of the mercury. After contact, he could feel in more detail that the activity of the mercury was indeed losing rapidly.

And its activity gives Shen Cong a feeling of "inanimate", which is similar to that of natural vehicles, both of which have "inanimate" activity.

Similarly, this activity has certain characteristics similar to natural vehicles, such as not being able to sense the location of talent.

In other words, this lake mercury is a complete life form, but it is a failed life form. It does not have the talents that a real life form should have, and its activity seems rigid and inflexible.

Shen Cong guided the hell plant to try to alloy mercury.

It failed.

Mercury resists alloys.

"Resist?" Shen Cong frowned and thought, "Both the iron core and the natural vehicle resist the alloy, but once the iron core is melted, it can be swallowed up. The mercury in this lake itself is poison. If it is not melted, why does it resist the alloy? "

The active wave slowly penetrates into the mercury, guiding its active frequency to resonate.

However, there was too much mercury in this lake, and Shen Cong did not have such strong willpower to guide it, so he used the hell plant to extend a kettle, filled the kettle with mercury, and quickly guided the mercury in the pot to resonate. He is using the flag strength method to try to guide the hell plant alloy to swallow mercury.

The result was a big disappointment. The mercury was indeed resonating, but it was just like ordinary water resonating, causing splashes.

It has not entered the flag state.

"Without the flag state, why can't it be swallowed?" Shen Cong was regretting that the flag strengthening method failed, but suddenly he sensed a new situation.

He felt that where his hell plant equipment came into contact with the mercury, it seemed to absorb activity, absorbing very small amounts of mercury.

However, it seems to be repulsive. After being absorbed, the mercury is repelled.

This state instantly reminded Shen Cong of something that had happened to Donkey Kong: the failure of active curing before siphoning.

At that time, because Shen Cong's activity level could not keep up, Donkey Kong was never able to solidify its activity.

Whenever the activity is about to solidify, it suddenly collapses and then siphons off.

The siphon upgrade method once allowed Shen Cong to reach the 1st pure gold era, so he was particularly impressed.

"Siphon, collapse, rejection or not rejection, but it has not yet reached the level of absorbing mercury. Why can't the hell plant absorb it? Because the hell plant has no talent and cannot reach the 1st Pure Gold Age? Or is it because of leaving the mercury lake? The mercury has been deactivated?”

While thinking, Shen Cong stretched part of the hell plant into the mercury lake.

There is no loss of activity from the lake.

At this moment, Shen Cong felt that the hell plant seemed to be greedy and wanted to absorb mercury, but it would still be repulsive, but the repulsive force was much smaller than that of inactivated mercury.

Absorbing back and forth can only be useless.
