Kyle was still a little dazed when Howard had already taken back the first safe and opened the second secret layer on the side wall.
"Click—"
This time the noise was obviously much louder. Along with the white cold air pouring out of the safe darkroom, what was pushed out was not a safe, but a huge desktop machine plugged into many wires. It looked like countless electronic parts were ingeniously pieced together. Various indicator lights kept flashing on the surface, and it made a slight noise when running.
"Howard, you're not going to tell me that this is a supercomputer?" Kyle pulled the corners of his mouth forcefully.
Howard smiled but said nothing. He clapped his hands and gave an instruction to the huge desktop machine: "Jarvis, say hello to Kyle."
Jarvis
Before Kyle could react, the huge desktop machine made a beeping sound, and then responded in a calm man's voice: "Mr. Howard, welcome back. Mr. Kyle, good evening, welcome to our home."
Kyle's heart was shaken. Given his state of mind, he was so shocked that he almost threw the phone in his hand away.
"Hahaha, did that scare you?" Howard patted Kyle's stiff shoulder and explained, "It's just a supercomputer, but I equipped it with intelligent voice recognition and a greeting command reply program."
"Why do you call him 'Jarvis'?" Kyle asked anxiously.
"Jarvis is the name of my current housekeeper. It makes me feel very friendly and at ease." Howard looked at the supercomputer in front of him with an expectant look, and said in a deep voice: "I used the computer host and smart chip you gave me to create the world's first supercomputer with a semi-intelligent program and named it 'Jarvis'. I also hope that one day it will not only rely on the system's instruction program, but also truly be a thinking artificial intelligence life, and break away from these hardware devices."
"So that's how it is." Kyle breathed a sigh of relief and fell silent for a moment.
Is this right or wrong, or are the father and son cut from the same mold
'Jarvis', the artificial intelligence of the 21st century and Iron Man's personal butler, was actually created by his father in the most primitive state in advance.
“Maybe we don’t even have to wait until the 21st century for artificial intelligence Jarvis to be fully developed…” Kyle was excited but also a little worried when he thought about this. He originally thought that he himself was the biggest butterfly effect in the Marvel world.
Who would have thought that the two green item cards drawn would bring even greater potential changes to the future of the world after being traded with Howard.
Technology is the primary productive force! Subvert the world with your heart!
"Oh, right." Howard seemed to remember something, took the supercomputer Jarvis back to the dark room, and walked towards the third dark wall to operate the access control.
"If you have anything else, please show it to me all at once. I can't stand it anymore." Kyle said with a slight breath.
"This is different from the two objects just now. Although it has been researched, it is completely useless now." Howard said, and the third dark wall just pushed out the safe, where there was only a design drawing drawn in pencil.
"What is this?" Kyle picked up the design drawing with a little surprise. Since it could be placed in the third darkroom, it proved that its value was no less than the semi-finished Jarvis.
"This is what I did after conducting in-depth research on the Cosmic Cube more than a month ago. I finally deduced a new element structure that is not on the chemical element table. I believe it can be used to replace infinite energy!"
Howard said regretfully, "It's a pity. Even if we deduce the structure of a new element, this element needs to be artificially synthesized through the continuous acceleration of high-energy particle beams. With current technology, it is still impossible to completely produce a finished product."
Chapter 83 Above the Gods
[Structure Sketch of Unknown Element]: A design sketch of the internal structure of an unknown element. White item card.
Kyle lowered his head, looking at the element structure diagram that was carefully drawn with pencil in his hand, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought for a long time.
Although this was just a theoretical construction deduced by Howard from the Cosmic Cube, he still knew that this element was a truly new elemental energy source and an isotope similar to the composition of cosmic ore materials.
In the future, the main core energy source of Iron Man's suit will be replaced by this kind of artificial synthetic element energy crystal. A small element crystal with a reserve base core can support the continuous combat consumption of high-tech iron suits, laser strikes, jet flight, Jarvis artificial intelligence system, etc.
"What level of technological advancement is needed before we can attempt to artificially synthesize this new element? I mean, what are the current technological barriers to synthesizing this new element?" Kyle put down the design drawing in his hand and asked Howard beside him with a serious look.
If artificial synthesis can be achieved and mass-produced, the energy blocks containing the remaining energy of gemstones can be replaced with the crystals of this new elemental energy...
There is no doubt that it can be used as supply material for blue grade sacrifice card drawing!
"Special materials for building acceleration tubes, as well as equipment that can emit stable high-energy particle beams, are at the forefront of science and have yet to be solved. They are not something that can be easily overcome in the next few years." Howard spread his hands helplessly and said jokingly, "To be honest, I am planning to put this element structure diagram away and let my descendants slowly complete it in the future."
"You don't have any kids yet." Kyle complained. Howard blew his mustache and glared at him. He said unhappily, "I'm going to date some young ladies with great bodies tonight and have a baby."
Poor Tony...
Kyle burst out laughing. The future genius engineer Tony Stark hasn't been born yet, and it would probably take another ten years. His buddy Howard had a son in his old age.
However, even if Tony was born earlier, given the limitations of current technology, it is impossible to artificially synthesize this new element that contains infinite possibilities.
"Do we really have to wait until more than half a century before we can try to manufacture it?" Kyle was a little unwilling. The element structure diagram in front of him was clearly a treasure map, but there was no corresponding key to open it and dig it up.
The card drawing through sacrifice is too random, and it is impossible to draw out a specific item that you need.
"Okay, don't think too much, just take it one step at a time. Maybe after a few years or even more than ten years, suitable materials and equipment will be invented." Howard patted Kyle's shoulder and comforted him. He originally just felt regretful, but he didn't expect that his partner would be more concerned about new elements.
"This is the only way." Kyle sighed and put the design back into the safe in the hidden floor. But the moment he loosened his hand, a flash of inspiration passed through his mind.
Wait... lack of special materials? The limitation of current technology
Kyle's eyes lit up slightly, it seemed that he had forgotten one place.
He smiled and said, "Howard, I suddenly remembered a place that should have special materials that can create this new element, as well as a sufficient level of science!"
"Where?" Howard was stunned when he heard it, and said hesitantly: "It can't be outer space of the earth."
"It's somewhere on this earth, but it's isolated from the rest of the world. The outside world can't get a glimpse of the information inside, and ordinary people can't easily step into that territory." Kyle shrugged.
It is a place blessed by God. Not only does it have some rare metal mines that are commonly used as materials, but its technological level is definitely decades ahead of the rest of the earth.
Howard, who had seen the cross-century scientific products provided by Kyle, naturally believed what he said and asked with great interest, "Then how do we get there? If we have the materials and sufficiently advanced radioactive equipment, I am confident that we can create new elements."
"No rush. If you want to get in there, you'll need some time to make arrangements and preparations." Kyle kept the matter in suspense.
Although the technology there is advanced, the rules and laws are too primitive and barbaric, and there is a deep-rooted rejection of outsiders.
He couldn't guarantee that if he and Howard rashly broke into that place, they would not be directly besieged by the locals.
"Let's wait until the war is over before we discuss everything. I have military duties to attend to, and I can't spare much time for personal activities." Kyle said that with his current status as a major general, it would be too conspicuous for him to go abroad for no reason.
The process of synthesizing new elements has come to an end.
After reading the research results, Kyle and Howard sat back on the sofa by the window in the office and continued to taste the unfinished bottle of red wine.
"I almost forgot. I have something to ask of you." Kyle thought of Logan outside the door, so he asked Howard, "The Logan you just saw is originally from Canada, and now he came to the United States with me. I hope you can arrange an American identity for him."
Howard nodded straightforwardly and agreed: "That's easy. Tell me your full name and age, and I'll find someone to handle it tomorrow."
"My name is 'Logan Carr'." Kyle gave the full name he had thought of long ago, hesitated, and muttered: "As for my actual age, I guess I'm in my sixties..."
Howard was sipping red wine in a gentlemanly manner. When he heard Logan's age, he choked in shock. He quickly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his wet trousers. He said in surprise, "Over sixty years old, your bodyguard just now? He looks to be in his early thirties, except that his facial hair is a little thick."
Kyle smiled and said, "I told you long ago that he's not an ordinary person, but to prevent others from having the same reaction as you, let's register him as 35 years old."
Age and appearance cannot be measured and judged from the perspective of ordinary people.
His super soldier physique itself ages four times slower than that of ordinary people, plus the vitality and super healing of the self-healing factor, as well as some life-enhancing cards that increase his natural lifespan.
