The blue cold light flashed, and the elevator descended rapidly.
Soon, the red indicator light flashed green and the elevator stopped at the bottom 1,000 meters below. Walking to the door of the shelter, Jiang Chen entered a few passwords on the door, then pulled out the data cable inside and connected it directly to E.
[Gene coding confirmed, welcome back, Mr. Manager.]
[The shelter door is opening...]
Jiang Chen pulled off the data cable and took two steps back. Soon, with a dull sound, the circular door panel in front of him slowly moved sideways. Behind the door, Xu Lu, the executive officer of Camp 27, was already waiting there.
Seeing Jiang Chen, she bowed with a smile and welcomed Jiang Chen into the shelter.
"The alien wave is over. Let's arrange for people to return to the surface."
"So fast?" Xu Lu said slightly surprised, but soon she returned to her smiling appearance, "I'll go get ready right now."
After saying goodbye to Xu Lu, Jiang Chen led the two guards behind him and walked straight to the Mechanical Research Institute in Shelter 27, where he found Fang Weixian who was immersed in drawing.
"Marshal? Why are you here in person?" Fang Wei first pushed away the drawing tablet in his hand and came forward with a smile.
"Well, there is something I want to show you, and then I will refer to your suggestions." After speaking, Jiang Chen gestured to the guard behind him.
The guard nodded, placed the two boxes he was carrying on the table, and then retreated behind Jiang Chen.
"Is this?" Fang Wei frowned slightly, walked to the box and reached out to open it.
After seeing what was in the box, he was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise.
"Mechanical exoskeleton...Gauss rifle?!"
"It comes with a mechanical exoskeleton with optical invisibility." Jiang Chen added.
With a flash of interest in his eyes, Fang Wei first reached out and rummaged through the fragments of the mechanical exoskeleton, and then took a look at the remains of the Gauss rifle.
"I hope you can restore the technology in this, can you do it?"
"I can give it a try. It shouldn't be very difficult." Fang Wei first moved the two boxes to a scanner, "Scan the parts structure. Restore the missing parts, then use a quantum computer to simulate the design plan, and finally Set up the production process.”
"Can it be mass-produced?" Jiang Chen asked.
"It's not easy." Fang Wei shook his head first, "Many things can only be recycled. For example, the Type 50 electromagnetic gun in the base has many parts that cannot be produced by ourselves from beginning to end. If the parts are not recycled, You can only use 3D printing technology."
The 3D printing technology in the 22nd century is quite mature and does not have the problems of 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 Ripper rifle was produced using a normal military production line, the price might be less than 10,000 US dollars, but if this rifle is manufactured using 3D printing technology, the price will be at least 100,000 US dollars, and it will not be because of Production expansion increases costs.
In the wasteland, due to the collapse of the industrial system, the survivors also used 3D printing technology for some parts that could not be processed. Just 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 by hand. This is why power armor is so expensive.
"If you use power armor to produce a Gauss rifle, how much do you estimate it will cost?" Jiang Chen asked casually.
"The cost is mainly reflected in energy consumption and material loss. If it were completely produced by 3D printing technology... a rifle would cost about 4,000 sub-crystals. The micro high-energy capacitors and acceleration tracks inside have very demanding material requirements. "Fang Wei first gave an estimate.
Good guy, it's almost half as strong as the T-3 powered armor. Jiang Chen secretly sighed.
After Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, he said, "No matter what, you should restore the technology first. The more expensive it is, the better."
In addition to its application 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, after inspecting the tank production situation at the Mechanical Research Institute, Jiang Chen left without disturbing the technicians in the research institute again.
Leave the Mechanical Research Institute. Jiang Chen then went to the Biological Research Institute not far from here and found those biological scientists who were not very popular in the shelter. When Jiang Chen walked into the research institute, he saw several scientists in white coats pointing around a culture tank, their faces filled with creepy excitement.
As for why it is said to be creepy. It's entirely because they look so much like Frankenstein in the comics.
The study of life has always been taboo in the scientific field, 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 use their imagination.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Chen walked behind Wang Fangping and patted his shoulder.
Wang Fangping was shocked. After seeing it was Jiang Chen, he chuckled and said, "Marshal, the power-generating seaweed you asked us to study has been completed."
"Done?" Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then a happy expression appeared on his face.
If the new country wants to develop tourism, it must reduce thermal power stations as much as possible. However, the efficiency of wind power generation and solar power generation is too low, and the cost of tidal power generation is too expensive. There is no need to think about nuclear power plants. Therefore, Jiang Chen has always maintained a strong interest in the biopower generation technology proposed by Wang Fangping.
It is not only environmentally friendly, but also cheap. What countries in the Pacific lack most is territorial waters.
"That's it." Wang Fangping stepped aside and made a greeting gesture to the culture tank with a smile.
I saw a 3-meter-long piece of seaweed floating in the yellow-green culture tank, and an ultraviolet lamp was hung above the seaweed. The meter next to it records the ratio of the amount of sunlight and the power generated by the seaweed.
"It can be planted in waters with a depth of 100 meters, and the maximum power is 1 kilowatt per square meter. The seaweed roots can be connected to metal wires to transmit power to the shore transformer, and then integrated into the power grid." Wang Fangping pointed to the meter and explained to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, you did a good job on this. All participants in the research will be rewarded with 1,000 sub-crystals each!"
Hearing this, the nine scientists in the institute all looked happy.
1,000 Asia Crystals. You must know that the NAC Knight's salary is only 50 Asia Crystals per month. This 1,000 Asia Crystals is undoubtedly a huge sum of money. Jiang Chen has never been stingy with his investment in scientific research.
"Thank you, Marshal!" Wang Fangping took the lead and said gratefully.
"You're welcome. I won't be stingy with rewards for anyone who has contributed to NAC. By the way, I also need you to help me with something. I need you to help me breed a breed that is less aggressive, easier to raise, and can Quickly accumulate sub-crystal alien species." Jiang Chen put forward the main purpose of this trip.
Now that the plan to "clean up" Wanghai City has been determined, the source of Yajing has to find another way.
Let all hunting groups that rely on hunting be redirected to serve as mercenaries escorting caravans, then change the source of crystals in the factory from "hunting grounds" to "pasture", and establish an Eden ecological zone in the wasteland to produce food.
Jiang Chen has already outlined this blueprint in his mind, and the first step to realize this plan is to find alien species suitable for captivity! (.)
