Su Mingge is a person who likes to gossip, and also a person who likes to chat with colleagues. Although the video conference ended successfully with Duan Hengye's insistence, and from the effect of the conference, it can be seen that Duan Hengye was not in a good condition except that he looked a little weak. But this still couldn't stop Su Mingge's rhythm.
A few days later, news about Duan Hengye's body spread throughout the research institute. Immediately afterwards, Duan Hengye's communication account received numerous messages about him from colleagues in a short period of time. Although getting everyone's attention is a very touching thing, but after reading it carefully... Duan Hengye vaguely guessed that Su Mingge was adding fuel to it.
But for Duan Hengye, this rumor that has now floated to An Luo University is not the focus of his life recently.
While Duan Hengye was "recovering" from Nan Zhuxing, he was also carefully studying the research records of that year that he had taken from his parents and teachers during the last school celebration. Although Duan Hengye was unconsciously learning relevant knowledge when he was young. But this time, the information he got this time was undoubtedly helpful to his research.
Because he has been staying in Nan Zhuxing for a while, Yu Xinlan often comes to Duan Hengye's office to see him. Because Yu Xinlan's identity is special, and he doesn't know much about mecha research. Every time she came, Duan Hengye would not deliberately hide her test progress.
In recent days, Yu Xinlan found that Duan Hengye suddenly did not perform numbers or programs and operations on the virtual keyboard like before, but looked at the light screen carefully. So curious, she finally couldn't help but ask Duan Hengye one day, "Professor Duan, is there something wrong with your recent research? It feels like the progress has suddenly slowed down." Yu Xinlan asked, On the other hand, he couldn't help but lean towards Duan Hengye to look.
Hearing this, Duan Hengye shook his head and said, "This is the test record left by my parents before."
"Oh... that's it." Yu Xinlan had heard about Duan Hengye's experimental records on Duguangxing before, but she still didn't quite understand that since the model of the mecha weapon bay had already come out, then these records were required. What's the use.
Yu Xinlan was a person who was easy to get to the bottom of, especially now that Duan Hengye's research was also related to her own work. So he saw Yu Xinlan put his hand on the table, then glanced at the light screen and said, "Aren't these records very old?"
"In the process of research, the failure record is more important than the final successful result." A familiar voice suddenly interjected. Yu Xinlan turned her head to look at the source of the voice. It turned out that it was not someone else who answered her question, but the Marshal Meng Jinhuai who appeared out of nowhere.
Speaking of which, before Duan Hengye came to work at Nanzhuxing, Meng Jinhuai's daily state was full of interstellar flying. But after Duan Hengye came here, Meng Jinhuai's business trips were much less visible to the naked eye. In fact, the work of the military should be like this. As a marshal, Meng Jinhuai does not have to appear in person at every post-event. According to Xinlan, who is very familiar with Meng Jinhuai, he actually arranged his work too closely before, leaving almost no time for relaxation.
Such a state may be called dedication at first glance, but it is actually an abnormal rhythm of life. Although he never said it, after seeing Meng Jinhuai's current state, Yu Xinlan was vaguely relieved.
After Meng Jinhuai answered Yu Xinlan's question just now, she ignored her existence and began to walk over to exchange knowledge about mecha design with Duan Hengye. Seeing this... Yu Xinlan, who was standing there, couldn't help but feel like she was a bit unpleasant.
As a famous golden single woman in Interstellar, Yu Xinlan always thought that falling in love was a boring and time-consuming thing. But seeing the two people in front of him now, Yu Xinlan couldn't help but feel a vague feeling of envy in his heart... Looking at the two people in front of him who were talking about mecha design issues that he didn't understand, Yu Xinlan finally Quietly exited Duan Hengye's office.
As Meng Jinhuai said to Yu Xinlan - in the process of research, the failure record is more important than the final successful result. With the model of the auxiliary and weapon system recorded in the experiment of the year, combined with Duan Hengye's long-term research. The time spent on top-level mecha design is almost the same as that of mass-produced mecha.
Just like when the mass production mecha design work was about to end, Duan Hengye temporarily stopped his work on Duguangxing and concentrated on staying in the research institute. Recently, Duan Hengye also asked An Luo University to take a slightly long personal leave.
Coincidentally. If it was a while ago, Professor Duan, who has always been dedicated, suddenly asked for leave, which would definitely cause a bunch of students to speculate. After the information is not allowed to be transmitted to the interstellar, some people will guess in advance that the Yetian Empire Mecha Research Institute may have a big move. However, as early as a while ago, the news of Duan Hengye's illness was spread through Su Mingge. Therefore, after receiving the news of Duan Hengye's request for leave, everyone immediately attributed the reason to his physical condition.
This is a good thing for Duan Hengye.
It can be seen from the examples of the parents' generation that a new and stronger mecha is not just as simple as the progress of the industry, but also involves extremely complex imperial interests behind it. As for the birth of the top mecha, it is closely related to the future trend of the entire interstellar.
Duan Hengye and the military had to keep the news of the end of the experiment a secret for the time being. After all, it wasn't a good time for it to appear in the interstellar space.
In the early morning of the Nan Zhuxing Marshal's Mansion, Duan Hengye pushed open the door of the office and walked in. His design for the new mecha had been completed a week ago. Recently, Duan Hengye has been conducting a lot of data review and review work. By last night, all the re-examinations were over, and now it's time to verify the results.
Shortly after Duan Hengye entered the door, Meng Jinhuai also came to this office. He just returned from an important job on another planet, so he was still wearing a short dark blue military uniform. After entering the door, Meng Jinhuai walked directly to Duan Hengye who was sitting at the desk. At this time, the man they were facing was the super brain of the military. Model generation for a while, as well as virtual experiments will be carried out here.
Perhaps it was because of the experience, or it was because he had already prepared for the second design in his heart, Duan Hengye felt much more relaxed than the last time. After seeing Meng Jinhuai coming over, Duan Hengye said while showing him the data: "The next step is to generate the virtual model of the mecha. If there is an error, all the previous data will be automatically destroyed by the optical brain." After talking about this, Duan Heng said. Ye paused for a while before continuing to introduce Meng Jinhuai: "After the model is generated, it will be a virtual experiment. Because of the special model of the mecha, this virtual experiment has three times as many items as the last time."
Although Duan Hengye was in a relatively relaxed mood when he came just now. But as the introduction deepened, Duan Hengye's fingertips involuntarily tapped lightly on the table before getting up. Meng Jinhuai knew that this was a manifestation of Duan Hengye's nervousness.
Although Heng Ye didn't study sleeplessly like a while ago, Ke Shi still poured all his energy into it. Both Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai knew that the design of mechas was not a simple matter. Although Duan Hengye's work went very smoothly last time, before him, it was not without his predecessors who had been stuck in the model generation step for more than ten years.
…and the virtual experiment that followed was not a worry-free job either.
Meng Jinhuai didn't speak, he stretched out his hand and took Duan Hengye's left hand, which was constantly tapping on the table. Due to nervousness, Duan Hengye's fingertips are now as cold as ice cubes. Just now, all his attention was on the data in front of him, so Duan Hengye didn't finally react until his hand fell into another warm and dry palm.
The Marshal did not speak, he just stood there silently supporting Duan Hengye.
Different from the last time he completed his research under pressure in the laboratory alone, after feeling the support of the people behind him, Duan Hengye first took a slow breath, then stretched out his other hand and hung it on the virtual keyboard. .
"Confirm the generation." Duan Hengye pressed the button with his fingers, and then the progress bar began to load.
The interface of the mecha model generation system was only seen by a few people in the entire interstellar space, and Duan Hengye was the one who saw it the most. Different from the last instant generation, after Duan Hengye pressed that key, the progress bar began to load. This speed is neither fast nor slow, just to whet your appetite.
The office was extremely silent, Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai both held their breaths, waiting for the result. As the number continued to increase, the energy in Duan Hengye's hand increased little by little. Although Professor Duan's physical fitness is average, he is a master of ancient martial arts after all.
After a while, Meng Jinhuai's hand turned white due to poor blood circulation. It was only at this time that Duan Hengye finally discovered this matter. After seeing the color on Meng Jinhuai's hand, Duan Hengye let him go a little embarrassedly, then coughed lightly and said, "Sorry... I didn't mean to."
While speaking, Duan Hengye turned his eyes to one side, and the roots of his ears slowly turned red. After seeing his unnatural appearance, Meng Jinhuai smiled and then took advantage of the opportunity when he was standing behind Duan Hengye to gently touch the other side's top.
Duan Hengye felt that Meng Jinhuai looked like he was teasing a child or a pet. But the scary thing is that he actually enjoys it very much...
this is not good!
After a while, Duan Hengye finally turned his gaze back to the light brain. He saw that the model on the optical brain had been loaded to 95% at this time, and now there are only a few minutes left to see the final result.
Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai stopped talking, the flow of time seemed to be deliberately slowed down. Finally, the light screen went black, and Duan Hengye couldn't help but suffocate. However, the super light brain didn't give people much time to breathe, but a few seconds later, a mecha model appeared in front of Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai.
Duan Hengye succeeded!
…
After all, this time the mecha design progress needs to be kept secret for the time being. After being excited, Duan Hengye's mood quickly calmed down. However, although the model of the mecha has already started the simulation experiment, Duan Hengye has not been idle.
The ultimate antidote to control drugs was also around this time.
Different from the temporary antidote that could only be regarded as a "pain reliever", the antidote developed by Lan Jingchi this time can completely clear the toxins in Duan Hengye's body. However, because this antidote was more ruthless than the previous ingredients, before he officially took it, Duan Hengye knew that he would not feel better for the next ten hours.
In the hospital that Nan Zhuxing Duan Hengye had undergone a medical examination before, a glass nutrition chamber filled with dark blue liquid had already stood in a laboratory of about ten square meters. Different from the past few times, after taking the medicine for a while, Duan Hengye would enter the nutrition cabin and wait for more than ten hours before the toxins were cleared away.
The environmental requirements in the nutrition cabin are very strict, only Duan Hengye and a doctor who is mainly responsible for this matter can enter. When the time was about to come, although Duan Hengye was listening to the doctor's speech, his mind couldn't help but start to run away.
It wasn't until the other party finished speaking that Duan Hengye raised his head as if he had just woken up from a dream. At this time, Meng Jinhuai, who had been standing beside him listening to the doctor's speech, suddenly stepped forward. "Don't be nervous." Meng Jinhuai gently pushed Duan Hengye's bangs aside, and then said to him.
Duan Hengye's forehead was very full, and when the strands of hair hanging on his forehead were brushed away, he suddenly appeared to be a few years younger. Hearing Meng Jinhuai's words, Duan Hengye nodded silently. Then, before he could follow the doctor into the laboratory, Meng Jinhuai suddenly came up and kissed Duan Hengye lightly on the forehead.
This kiss was extremely gentle, but when it fell on Duan Hengye's forehead, it made him feel like he was accidentally burned.
Meng Jinhuai smiled at Duan Hengye, and then said, "Go, I'll wait for you here."
…
Although this is not the first time Duan Hengye has entered the nutrition cabin, the last time it was just to recover the trauma on his arm, it was incomparable to this time. Duan Hengye put on a white lab coat and walked behind the doctor into the cabin. Although he was already prepared in his heart, after seeing it, Duan Hengye's heart couldn't help but feel uneasy.
There was dark blue liquid in the nutrition cabin, all of which gave Duan Hengye a deep-sea feeling. And because the experiment has not officially started yet, the dark blue nutrient solution is completely still. This color looks a bit lifeless, and the feeling of suffocation instantly rushed towards Duan Hengye.
"Professor Duan, a levitator will take you to the second floor of this laboratory, and then you will enter the cabin from there." The staff who followed Duan Hengye introduced to him. In the recent period of time, Duan Hengye has listened to the procedure many times, but after entering the door, the doctor continued to explain uneasy: "The structure of the nutrient solution is relatively special, so there will be no oxygen supply device. You must adjust your breathing as soon as you go in."
"Yeah." After hearing the doctor's words, Duan Hengye nodded solemnly at him, and then involuntarily took a deep breath.
Just like what the doctor said, after entering the nutrition cabin for a while, Duan Hengye will be immersed in the dark blue nutrient solution in front of him. Although this liquid is very special, he can still maintain normal breathing after entering. But for someone like Duan Hengye who has never experienced a large nutrition cabin, quickly adjusting the breathing rhythm is still a difficult problem to overcome.
"If you're sure it's okay, please stand on the levitator now." The doctor said to Duan Hengye.
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Hengye saw a small gray indoor suspension device appearing in front of him. At this time, Duan Hengye's mood had almost completely adjusted, he glanced forward, and then walked up without looking back.
At this time, Heng Ye was wearing a special lab coat. Although the texture was not ordinary, it didn't look much different from an ordinary white shirt, except that the style was looser.
The doctor could not follow to the second floor of the experimental cabin. After standing here on the levitator, Duan Hengye took out the dark gray antidote from his pocket and swallowed it directly.
The pill was not small, and Duan Hengye could clearly feel the trajectory of it sliding down his esophagus. After it fell into the stomach, a bitterness also emerged from the body. Duan Hengye couldn't help frowning, then finally looked down at the dark blue liquid under his feet. He hesitated for a moment, then walked forward while holding on to the metal railing on one side. Duan Hengye didn't stand here for too long. After standing beside the nutrition cabin, he looked up at the virtual clock on the bulkhead, and finally stepped in with one foot.
Duan Hengye knew how to swim, but in his impression, apart from the time when he just learned to swim when he was a child, he didn't seem to have been exposed to this sport at all. Seeing such a large, airtight water tank at first glance, even though Duan Hengye knew that he would not be in danger of suffocation, his biological instinct still made him nervous.
The temperature of the nutrient solution was neither too high nor too low. Duan Hengye's toes touched the surface of the water lightly, and after a while, he jumped in directly. This time, he no longer hesitated, Duan Hengye held his breath and jumped straight down.
This nutrient cabin is about three meters high. I don't know if it is because of the special liquid, Duan Hengye didn't fall down very fast. After jumping in for a while, Duan Hengye opened his eyes, because the landing speed was slow and what happened in front of him was a smooth bulkhead with no reference, the journey seemed to be extraordinarily long.
With this dark blue liquid, Duan Hengye had the illusion that he was falling into the deep sea at this time.
After a while, the landing finally stopped. Duan Hengye looked down and saw that he was hanging in the nutrition cabin at this moment, about thirty centimeters away from the bottom of the bilge. He tried to continue falling, but was pulled up again by an invisible force.
Duan Hengye's ear was extremely quiet. After adjusting his posture, he slowly stretched out his hand in front of him, and then made a grabbing motion in the void. Of course, Duan Hengye didn't catch anything, but he was a little surprised to find that the liquid in the bilge felt a little like jelly.
As a person with strong curiosity, after discovering this, Duan Hengye couldn't help but stretch out his hand and continue to gently swipe in front of his eyes. However, such a leisurely time did not last for a few seconds - Duan Hengye was holding his breath when he jumped down just now, and now this breath has finally been used up.
After feeling the suffocation coming towards him, Duan Hengye finally retracted his hand and began to slowly adjust his breathing just as the doctor said before.
However, the experiment on land is really simple. It is a completely different experience from breathing underwater. Duan Hengye soon discovered that his instinct as a creature was constantly stopping him, disrupting the rhythm of his breathing. It is true that you can breathe in the nutrient solution, but if the rhythm is not controlled well, you will be choked.
It's fine if it's just choking water... But the texture of this nutrient solution is obviously more weird. Due to holding his breath for a long time, Duan Hengye's head was a little dizzy.
At this moment, through the dark blue liquid, Duan Hengye suddenly saw a familiar figure of Meng Jinhuai. At this time, the other party changed into a lab coat and pressed his hand tightly to the bulkhead. Meng Jinhuai's eyes were fixed on Duan Hengye in the cabin, and his expression was extremely firm.
After realizing that Duan Hengye was looking at him, Meng Jinhuai quickly raised the palm of his hand, and then kept sliding his fingers up and down the bulkhead. At the same time, Meng Jinhuai was also mouthing at him.
Because of the bulkhead and the nutrient solution, Duan Hengye couldn't hear the sound outside. But despite this, Duan Hengye still saw what he wanted to express through Meng Jinhuai's actions.
… Meng Jinhuai is helping himself to find the rhythm of his breathing. Although he was still a little nervous because of the lack of oxygen, Duan Hengye finally followed Meng Jinhuai's gesture and tried to overcome his fear of water.
A miraculous thing happened, obviously he was panicking just now because he was worried about choking water, but since seeing Meng Jinhuai's actions, Duan Hengye's mood has calmed down. Even... even the dark blue deep sea in front of him seemed amiable.
Meng Jinhuai's movements did not stop. After a while, Duan Hengye finally found the rhythm of breathing in the nutrient solution. And as his breathing resumed, Duan Hengye's slightly drowsy head gradually regained consciousness.
"...Don't be afraid." Through a wall of water, Duan Hengye saw Meng Jinhuai say this to him.
