After walking for a long time, Zhang Xu used a quantum instrument to roughly scan the entire base. Its shape was made up of multiple huge cubes superimposed together, showing a strange shape. Huge rings of steel bars supported all the fulcrums. Impregnable.
Zhang Xu has also learned about this kind of geometry. This kind of geometry has a strong structure. As long as the steel on the surface is easy to use, it is easy to cut through the rock.
In fact, the underground city with a circular integrated structure is the fastest moving, but it is also the most fragile. As long as an accident occurs at one point, it will affect the safety of the entire base, whether it is natural causes or man-made destruction. It is difficult to solve such problems.
On the other hand, with this multi-faceted and angular structure, even if a structure needs to be repaired due to earthquakes or mantle rock fractures, it will only cost a small amount of time and cost, so many mobile underground cities choose this shape.
Walking all the way to the command room, Zhang Xu met the commander of the base. His name was Teng Jing. He was about 50 years old. His tough appearance showed that he was still in high spirits.
"You must be Commander Teng. Nice to meet you." Zhang Xu curled his mouth and stretched out his right hand.
Teng Jing was a little distracted when he saw Zhang Xu. Zhang Xu looked so much like his father, especially his eyes and expression, they were almost carved out of the same mold.
He immediately extended his hand to return the favor and said with a smile: "You're welcome, your dad and I are still high school classmates. Just call me Uncle Teng."
The two had a good chat, and Zhang Xu, who took Zhang Xu to visit the entire base, asked to see his parents at a suitable opportunity, and he agreed.
Zhang Xu’s father is Zhang Xiaofeng. After graduating from Qinghua University, he studied abroad and studied for a doctorate in Massachusetts. Although the schools in country Z are good, its laboratories are far behind those of country M. However, he finally got the After getting his Ph.D., he returned to Country Z to choose his own scientific research path.
Zhang Xu’s mother is Tang Fuyun. She also graduated from Qinghua University. She then took postgraduate entrance examinations and studied for a doctorate. Finally, she met Zhang Xiaofeng here. After knowing each other for more than a year, she decided to get married and have children, and gave birth to Zhang Xu.
Zhang Xu saw his father at the first glance. He was not much different from the one in the video, but he had heavy dark circles under his eyes and his hair was a little messy. It seemed that he had not had much rest in the past few days.
When he saw Zhang Xu, Zhang Xiaofeng was a little stunned. When he saw Zhang Xu, it was like seeing his younger self. He wiped the moist corners of his eyes and immediately wrapped his arms around Zhang Xu.
Teng Jing did not disturb the meeting between father and son, and walked away knowingly. He was not only the commander of this base, but also one of the persons in charge of Zhang Xiaofeng's experiment, so he also had the right to give Zhang Xiaofeng a rest.
"...Dad, why are you coming to me in such a hurry?" It took a long time for Zhang Xu to say the first word. This was the most difficult word for him to say in so many years.
Zhang Xiaofeng let go of Zhang Xu, stared at Zhang Xu, then stroked the frame of his glasses and replied: "Follow me."
The two walked quickly for a long time and came to a small room. This was Zhang Xiaofeng's room. Zhang Xu was surrounded by manuscripts scattered on the floor and obscure symbols on the wall.
Zhang Xiaofeng smiled, said nothing, and immediately bent down and started to clean up. Zhang Xu didn't say anything, and started to help his father clean up the floor of the room.
There is not much dust in the room, but the spider webs above the head and in the corners can be clearly seen, and it still feels like entering a garbage dump.
The furniture here is very simple, a metal wardrobe with an open door, the clothes inside are extremely simple in color, all white, and a small metal bed with some scattered bedding.
Near the bed is a large metal table with various books and a small potted plant piled on it. There is a little water in the potted plant, there are a lot of pebbles inside, and the plant is a little yellow.
What Zhang Xu cared about the most was a photo frame on the table. He slowly picked up the photo frame. It was spotless without a trace of dust. It was obviously the reason why his father often held it in his hand.
There is a photo inside, which is a photo of his father Zhang Xiaofeng and his mother Tang Fuyun, and the baby they are holding in their arms must be him.
"This was taken when you were just one month old. When you were seven months old, I received a secret invitation, along with your mother..."
"This is a secret research institution of the country. We all want to bring glory to the country. If we hadn't decided to give birth to you, we might have rushed to the appointment directly... But you were too young at the time, and we had no choice. In the end, I went to the appointment first. , Fuyun will not come over until you reach junior high school."
"However, the original experimental staff is full, and the country still thinks that she is a scientific research talent, so we decided to keep your mother here, but her research level is a little lower than mine, and she can still contact you occasionally."
After hearing what Zhang Xiaofeng said, Zhang Xu did not respond and just nodded. He smiled, knowing what kind of temper his son, whom he had not seen for so many years, was like.
He stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the topic, but this time, he took out a disk-shaped object from the desk cabinet. He also dug out many small parts from it, and then assembled them skillfully.
A simple pulse shield was ready. Zhang Xu saw what the device looked like and understood. It turned out that his father was afraid that someone would monitor this place, so he also asked Xiao An in the quantum device to start shielding.
The security facilities of this base are very high, like a big river, and there are people on the riverside to help the operators stationed there. However, Xiao An did not destroy its main system, but only invaded its branches, allowing the data about ten meters around the room to be blocked. Temporarily ineffective and cannot be passed to the main database.
Zhang Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know how long his device could shield him. Although there was no monitoring device in the room, it might have been an unnecessary move on his part, but it was best to be careful in what happened next.
After completing these preparations, Zhang Xiaofeng carefully took out a small box from his arms. At first glance, it was just a small glasses case. Looking at his father's expression, it was obvious that he cared about this glasses case.
He pushed the books on the metal table away and scattered them all over the floor. Only the plant pot and photo frame were in his hands.
Zhang Xiaofeng motioned Zhang Xu to come closer, and then he slowly opened the glasses case. There was a mezzanine inside. He took out two metal iron blocks. One of them was a rectangular parallelepiped, but it had two square sides, and there were many lines engraved on the surface. .
Zhang Xu took a closer look and saw that it was definitely a circuit, but the circuit could be carved into such a small size. With this kind of manufacturing technology, it could not be manufactured by the industrial methods known to Zhang Xu, of course excluding those confidential methods.
The other is a polyhedron with equilateral triangles on both sides and a thickness of only 5 mm. The surface is smooth and clean, with no gaps visible.
I saw Zhang Xiaofeng pick up the triangular polyhedron and gently place it on top of the cuboid. A magical scene happened. The triangle that was originally regarded as one body actually began to deform. The metal parts inside were clearly visible, and the three metal corners were aligned in the sky. .
Obviously, the metal triangular iron block on the top is not one piece, but this tight workmanship makes Zhang Xu a little amazed. You must know that Zhang Xu's strongest eyesight is to be able to see bacteria, which are usually only 0.5 microns to 5 microns. Varies in microns.
The gaps between the metals should be easy to see, but he didn't see it. It was obvious that the metal gaps in this triangular polyhedron were not at the micron level at least.
'Nanotechnology' is well-known, but how many people really understand how difficult it is to make? At present, humans only use micron-level materials for processing and mass manufacturing, but its definition is to use real nanomaterials. The size difference between microns and nanometers is 1000 times.
Real nanotechnology can indeed be used, but its cost is too high. Who would apply this technology to these two people's ugly iron blocks?
"Dad, these two little things are not simple. They are made with nano-level technology." Zhang Xu asked softly. Zhang Xiaofeng raised his head and shook his head with a smile.
Zhang Xu's heart trembled. Zhang Xiaofeng didn't know Zhang Xu's genetic level, nor did he know how powerful his eyesight was.
Even more powerful than nanotechnology is picometer technology. This technology is only based on imagination. At present, humans do not seem to have announced the technology to produce it. Zhang Xu also believes that humans should also have picometer technology, but it has never been announced.
The two little things in front of me have extraordinary origins.
Zhang Xiaofeng looked at Zhang Xu's shocked face and smiled. Then he decisively pulled out the dying green plant from the potted plant in his left hand, searched inside for a while, and finally found a purple-gray spar.
Zhang Xu was a little strange, but he didn't say anything and continued reading.
Zhang Xiaofeng placed the crystal on top of the two iron blocks, with the triangle pointing vertically upward, just to hold the crystal, and waited for about a minute.
Zhang Xu saw an image similar to a holographic image, and it was in full color, which made him feel amazed again.
Holographic projection consists of multiple cold lights alternating into a three-dimensional picture. Many holographic images are blue, but Zhang Xu has never seen the colorful ones so far. Even Xiao An of the quantum instrument is ordinary blue. color.
Looking at this image again, it looks like a cloud, emitting colorful lights, flashing from time to time, and finally it changes little by little and becomes a human shape.
Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes lit up and he immediately said: "Son, put a drop of blood on this stone, quickly!" Zhang Xu did not hesitate. Since he was his own father, there was no reason to harm his biological son, so he did it obediently. .
A drop of blood dripped down, and the purple-gray crystal seemed to sense something. It shook slightly, then quickly absorbed the blood that fell on the surface, and then bloomed a gorgeous purple.
Zhang Xiaofeng murmured: "It seems that all these years of planning have not been in vain, Phagocytosis has succeeded!"
