Richard is currently conducting six research projects, namely: magic patterns, pneumonia fungus, antibiotics, spell defense shield, blood of god, and Eden energy system.
The knowledge contained in the Suture Monster is of great help to the three items of "Spell Defense Shield", "Blood of God" and "Eden Energy System" - if you fully master the knowledge of the Suture Monster, the six studies can be solved directly half.
The first is the spell defense shield.
Richard studied the hard exteriors of the four purple suture monsters and the only black suture monster, and separated a very special mixture from them. The mixture appears gray, and although the composition of the mixture cannot yet be determined, putting the mixture into water can form an excellent non-Newtonian fluid that performs better than the currently used black non-Newtonian fluids.
In this case, as long as the mixture is mastered and produced in large quantities, it can be used to improve the spell defense shield and turn the black reaction shield into a composite shield superimposed on gray and black.
Then there's the Blood of Gods.
Richard dissected many dead and frozen suture monsters and found that the heart function of the other party was very powerful. It not only had strong contractility and large blood supply, but also had high resistance and was not susceptible to external damage. It also had a certain degree of repair ability.
And this heart, which was originally just an ordinary person's heart, became like this after a series of transformations.
Although Richard is not planning to make his heart look the same, if he can figure out the mechanism of heart strengthening and apply it to the blood of God, he can definitely reduce the side effects of the blood of God and increase the degree of strengthening, thus rivaling the Marquis. Level, Duke level, and even King level bloodline power.
Let God's Blood (Elementary) become God's Blood (Intermediate) and God's Blood (Advanced).
Finally, there is the Eden energy system.
Richard has almost given up on the transformation of the Eden energy system. In his opinion, for now, there is no big hope that the transformation will be successful in a short time. But some results of the suture monster's anatomy gave him a surprise.
This matter is a bit complicated, so I need to explain it bit by bit:
You know, the suture monster is so powerful that it can even knock Pandora away. Richard thought this was due to its special structure, but in fact it was because the suture monster had a specially enhanced energy system in its body.
Generally speaking, humans are not plants, cannot carry out photosynthesis, cannot survive on their own, and need to absorb energy from the outside world. The main way to absorb energy is through the consumption system. In other words, energy is obtained through eating, digesting and absorbing various nutrients in food.
The energy obtained will be stored in the form of sugar, fat, and protein. When needed, such as during anaerobic exercise or aerobic exercise, it will be broken down into ATP (adenine nucleoside triphosphate) for energy.
What about Stitch Monster
The size of the monster is far larger than that of ordinary people, making it difficult for the suture monster to supply energy in the same single way. Therefore, in addition to this energy supply system, there is another auxiliary energy supply system in the suture monster's body.
The core of this auxiliary energy supply system is the powerful heart of the Stitch Monster.
The powerful heart possessed by the suture monster gives the suture monster a metabolic capacity that far exceeds that of ordinary creatures. For example, when a Stitch Monster stands still, it is similar to a normal person running a marathon under the scorching sun. This naturally generates a large amount of heat, which cannot be dissipated outside the body.
The reason for this is that on the one hand, the proportion of the suture monster's appearance that is in contact with the outside world is significantly lower than that of smaller creatures due to its huge size. On the other hand, the Stitch Monster's skin has been modified for defense and has no perspiration function. Unless the Stitch Monster sticks out its tongue like a dog, the metabolic heat will always be accumulated in the body.
This is very fatal!
Just like the reason why human beings can become the king of beasts and can exterminate all kinds of large beasts with stones and sticks in ancient times is because of their strong heat dissipation. You can bring drinking water and dry food in groups to chase groups of wild beasts to death from exhaustion and heat.
If the Stitch Monster does not solve the heat dissipation problem, it will not need external attacks at all. It will die after moving a few times, as if it was born with the negative status of "Seven Steps of Snake Venom".
How to deal with the suture monster
The answer is that the Stitch Monster absorbs the heat and converts it into energy. There is a layer of translucent colloid outside the organs of the Stitch Monster. Richard discovered it when he first dissected it. Originally, I thought that this colloid acted as a buffer, like fat, to reduce damage to the suture monster from the outside world. But as the research deepened, I found that this thing is not simple.
If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be a temperature difference material.
Yes, temperature difference material!
What is a temperature difference material
To understand temperature difference materials, you must first understand a law - the second law of thermodynamics: heat can be spontaneously transferred from a hotter object to a cooler object, that is, heat conduction.
If an iron block at 500 degrees Celsius is in contact with an iron block at 300 degrees Celsius, the high-temperature iron block will definitely transfer heat to the low-temperature iron block until the two iron blocks are at the same temperature.
This is like water flowing downwards under the influence of gravity. This cannot be changed until the entire set of physics is overturned!
Can we use this law just like wind and water power
The answer is - yes!
Imagine that there is a high-temperature wall of several hundred degrees Celsius, and next to it is a cold wall of dozens of degrees below zero. As long as there is some kind of medium between these two walls, heat will continue to flow from the high-temperature wall to the cold wall. The wall is like water falling from a hydroelectric dam.
The difference is that water flow can hit the wheels of a hydropower station to generate electricity, while heat must act on a special material to generate electricity - a temperature difference material.
The definition of thermoelectric materials is: materials with significant temperature differences that generate electricity. When the materials are in an environment with a temperature gradient, they can generate electric current.
Regarding thermoelectric materials and thermoelectric power generation, these things have actually been studied for many years on the modern earth. It has even formed a special subject - thermoelectricity, and summarized the "Seebeck effect", "Thomson effect", "Peltier effect" Effect" and many other laws.
By making good use of this subject knowledge, basically as long as there is a temperature difference, electricity can be generated.
There is no temperature difference in the world, so it can be said that thermoelectric power generation can be achieved anywhere - no fossil fuels, no wind or water power, no light, clean and pollution-free, which is simply touching.
But having said that, there is a reason why thermoelectric power generation is so good but has not been promoted. The first is that the cost is high, and the second is that the technology content is high, and it is difficult to obtain and discover suitable temperature difference materials. Therefore, the places where thermoelectric power generation is most widely used are on satellites that are not poor in money and technology. In other places, other power generation methods with relatively shortcomings are used.
In this case, trying to use temperature differences to generate electricity in a world similar to the Middle Ages is simply whimsical.
However, nothing is absolute.
According to research on Earth, some animal materials have the effect of temperature difference materials, such as... the colloid in the shark's nose.
Well, colloids in shark noses.
According to analysis, there is a colloid in the shark's nose that can sensitively sense temperature changes in sea water. A temperature change of 0.1°C will cause it to generate a significant voltage, which is then transmitted to the nerve cells, allowing the shark to receive the signal. Sharks use this mechanism to quickly detect the surrounding seawater environment and hunt for prey.
Now, through some experiments, Richard can basically confirm that the large amount of translucent colloid in the suture monster's body is similar to the shark nose colloid.
Considering that if you kill all the sharks in the entire sea, you will definitely be able to collect so much colloid. The colloid in the Stitch Monster is obviously artificially synthesized.
To sum up these many words, it is:
The Necromancer found a way to artificially synthesize temperature difference materials and added this material to the body of the Stitch Monster. It absorbed the heat emitted by the Stitch Monster and was used for energy conversion. In this way, the stronger the suture monster's activity, the more heat its metabolism generates, and the higher its energy supply, forming a perfect positive closed loop.
And if we could master the power generation ability of this synthetic colloid through the information left by the necromancer, it would be extraordinary.
In Richard's opinion, once mastered, he can make a large number of thermoelectric generators, generate electricity automatically 24 hours a day, and solve the energy system problem of the Garden of Eden. Let the Garden of Eden move from semi-electrification to a fully electrified era. By then, electric lights for lighting can be used freely, and there is no need to worry about power shortages.
