When the chip designs a device, several basic recipes or design drawings will be given at the same time. The number of design drawings is determined by the initial data.
Before building the editor, Chu Jungui had already expected what kind of basic design drawings he would get. The first two design drawings were within the scope of his expectations: better than the ordinary version of the product, but to a limited extent. If you want more and better blueprints, you need scientists.
But the third design drawing made Chu Jungui completely change his mind.
This is also a new material, and the chip even gave it a name, "survival" grade composite material. This material is composed of 80% organic matter and 10% inorganic matter and metal. The internal structure of the material is very complex. If you look carefully under a microscope, you will find that there are many holes of different sizes, seemingly arranged randomly. However, the test body's data analysis and comparison ability is far beyond comparison. At a glance, it can be seen that its microstructure is very similar to the stem of purple grass.
The supporting walls inside the material are mostly made of organic fibers, and the metal components are evenly distributed in the form of particles. This material creates a surface with an even distribution of organic matter and metal particles wherever it is cut.
Because it is hollow inside, its density is only one-eighth that of ordinary steel, about the same as pure water, but a series of indicators such as hardness and ductility far exceed that of steel. In terms of defense, which is currently the most important thing for Chu Jungui, it is already equivalent to the defense level of the main battle tank currently in service during the Tang Dynasty.
In other words, 'survival' composite materials provide the same level of defense at one-tenth the weight of armor alloys. Its appearance made all the armor plate designs in Chu Jungui's hands obsolete. If it weren't for its very slow production speed, the test subjects would be eager to use it to build a house.
The only disadvantage of this composite material is that it is not resistant to low temperatures, but this does not seem to be a problem on Planet 4. It’s hot here at 60 or 70 degrees during the day, and it’s always above 30 degrees at night.
To produce 'survival' composite materials, a large amount of comfrey and double-leaf tree leaves are needed. These raw materials are almost endless on Planet 4, so it is not a problem. It's just that this time the editing is close to the cell level, so the production process is very slow, only one cubic meter of material can be produced per hour.
Chu Jungui roughly calculated that only 10 centimeters of 'survival' grade composite material is needed to provide the same defense as 1000mm of homogeneous steel. This level of defense can completely resist the projectiles of the Thornback Beast, and it can temporarily meet the needs as a base building material or a tank shell. Even if the Thornback Beast evolves again in the future, all Chu Jungui needs to do is lay another layer of armor on it.
Therefore, a large editor can produce more than 200 pieces of standard armor plates or other structural parts of equal weight every day.
The emergence of 'survival' composite materials was completely unexpected. It has gone far beyond the scope of basic design drawings, and it is impossible for ordinary advanced design drawings to reach this level. Normally, Chu Jungui would set up a special materials laboratory, fill it with a dozen scientists, and then wait ten or eight years before he could achieve similar results.
This is not a fluke. There may be a bit of luck in science, but it is not the decisive factor. There must be an internal reason for the appearance of this design drawing that should not have appeared. The only explanation is this special chip itself.
Chu Jungui's agent chip is very special in nature and was a gift from Dr. Zero. But until now he had treated it as an ordinary Level 4 agent chip until he discovered a possible vulnerability. As the degree of cracking increases, the chips have more and more special features.
The abnormal increase in computing power is one of them, as is the independent increase in style design. The emergence of survival materials made Chu Jungui completely aware of the difference of this chip.
It seemed that Agent Chip also understood that he was being targeted by Chu Jungui. At this time, he was unusually quiet and dormant, not even reminding Chu Jungui that he should assign new tasks.
However, pretending to be deaf and dumb is of no use to Chu Jungui. Chu Jungui had not yet thought about what tasks to give it, but now that he has the design drawings of survival-grade materials, he can no longer waste his talents. So Chu Jungui directly threw the fourth-level agent's workbench to Chip and asked him to design an alien version of the workbench accordingly.
Chip silently accepted the task and was given 110 hours of research time.
"Sure enough, there is a problem." Chu Jungui sneered in his heart. According to the calculations of the test body, it will take at least 2000 to 3000 hours to perform this task using Lin Xi's level 5 agent chip, and it may not be successful. The standard level 4 agent chip will take 600-800 hours anyway based on 3 times the performance, and there is a small probability of failure.
This chip directly gave 110 hours of research time, and did not mention the probability of failure at all. It has almost jumped out of the category of level 3 chips. The test subject had an intuition. Although this guy always liked to underestimate the research time in the past, this time he probably increased the research time intentionally.
However, the research time estimate can be falsified, but the research process will not be affected. It will take as long as it takes to complete, and there will be corresponding prompts after completion. This cannot be changed. At most, the chip will spend a little extra time on the appearance design, but not much more, a few hours at most.
Chu Jungui didn't believe that this chip research workbench could also design a supporting base specifically for this workbench.
As for what the workbench itself looks like, whether it is magical realism, alien bionics, modern minimalism, or even in the shape of an Iron Throne or a lotus platform, Chu Jungui doesn't care. He can mess with whatever chips he wants, as long as it can be used.
After assigning the task to the chip, Chu Jungui assigned the long-term task to the large editor to continuously manufacture 'survival' grade composite materials. At the same time, he summoned the soldiers who had just assembled the editor together and asked them to continue making large-scale alien version editors, first building 50 units.
In addition to 'survival' grade composites, heavy metals and biological paints are also useful. Heavy alloys can completely replace biological materials and be used to make parts such as gun barrels and barrels. Base No. 2 finally saw the dawn of getting rid of biomass weapons.
In addition, heavy alloys are also the basis for building structural components and can also be used to manufacture a range of equipment and components. With it, basically all equipment and machinery can be upgraded. Biological coatings can greatly extend the service life of equipment, and the effect is better when used with heavy alloys.
Chu Jungui sent all three material design drawings to Lin Xi and asked her to re-plan based on the current materials. A complete upgrade of Base No. 2 is about to begin.
