Fire is the original energy source. With fire, the course of human history has been rewritten.
After completing the feat of making fire, Kaitian lay on the ground, as tired as a dead dog, even worse than a dead dog.
Chu Jungui was speechless, and cut off several pieces of bark, spread the one-meter-square bark on the ground, and invited Kaitian to come over for dinner. While Kai Tian was trying to digest substances other than fiber, Chu Jungui asked Kai Tian in detail about the principle of creating fire.
Today's Kaitian is no longer the ignorant little creature back then. It is also an advanced being that has undergone rigorous scientific training and has knowledge inherited from its own genes, so it can explain it in a simple and profound way. To put it simply, the cells that temporarily constitute the eye are arranged in a special way, so that the energy field is excited by the bioelectricity of the cells. When the energy field reaches a critical value, a high-energy beam is generated. Of course, if further subdivided, these cells still have many divisions of labor, including those that release electrical energy, those that perform energy field conversion, those that monitor, and those that perform magnetic confinement, while basic functions such as photosensitivity and scanning are still there.
After Chu Jungui finished listening to the long speech, which was like a scientific paper, he had a thought in his mind: "I can do this too!"
He stretched out his hand and realized that the body cells in the palm of his hand began to change, batches of new cells were generated, and then a large amount of nutrients were mobilized.
A few scattered spots appeared on the palm of Chu Jungui's hand. Apart from the fact that the temperature was a little higher, it had no effect. The test subject was not discouraged and continued to adjust. Anyway, this is a real dream. If you can think of it, you can do it.
Soon, those scattered spots became more orderly, and nine points were arranged into a square, but it still had no effect.
Chu Jungui continued to adjust. This time the spots elongated and turned into triangles. The temperature increased to 60 degrees, and that was it. Then the triangle becomes a nested prism, which instead becomes 57 degrees.
After repeated adjustments, if someone sees this scene, they will see a naked man sitting in a daze looking at his left hand. In front of him are several square pieces of bark, covered with a light layer. fog.
An hour passed.
Chu Jungui had adjusted it countless times. He built hundreds of models in his mind and then abolished them one by one. Now the pattern on his palm has turned into a spiral, like a nebula. And as the energy supply cells released energy again, these patterns quickly lit up, emitting a hazy red light, and strong radiation appeared on the threads, converging at a certain point above the palm of the hand.
A ray of light flashed, and a flame suddenly appeared above Chu Jungui's hand, burning out of thin air.
Several eyes appeared in Kaitian, staring at the flames, extremely shocked.
The flame is light blue and the temperature is only three to four hundred degrees, which is similar to the alcohol flame in the real world. But this is a starting point, a starting point towards infinite possibilities.
The nebula pattern in Chu Jungui's hand slowly faded away, which meant that many of the cells inside that were specially designed for this purpose had been recycled and turned into ordinary cells again. Under the nebula pattern, those newly generated bodies can actually be regarded as a new organ.
A new component was formed in Chu Jungui's consciousness: Energy Application 0.1a, and a branch appeared under the component, Basic Thermal Energy.
The specific expression of this component is the nebula pattern and a series of body tissues attached to it. Unlike knowledge-based components such as politics and tactical deception, energy applications are load-based components, and the required loading position is a terrifying 210. This type of loaded component not only requires muscle memory, but also requires special strengthening and adjustment of part of the body structure to maximize the power of the component. For example, the physical training and strengthening of a heavyweight boxer and a marathon runner are completely different.
The energy application is too special, and it is the first large-scale loading component that Chu Jungui independently generated. Therefore, although it can only produce a little low-temperature flame, the required loading position, in other words, the extent of body modification required has far exceeded that before. The sum of the individual components.
Now the total number of components that Chu Jungui's entire body can carry is only 320. After loading the energy application, he can only barely fit one basic melee combat component, and the others can no longer be accommodated. However, those machine gun battles, fighter plane battles, etc. are not used in real dreams.
When the nebula pattern completely disappears, the energy application component has been uninstalled. The loading and unloading process is similar and takes about half an hour.
Looking at the palm of his hand that had returned to its original state, Chu Jungui felt faintly excited in his heart. The current energy application is still very rudimentary, but each component is like this at the beginning. Eventually, with continuous optimization, the power will continue to increase and the required loading capacity will also decrease. At that point, the component will be completely transformed.
Chu Jungui has not used the loading position for a long time. There are not many places where his personal combat power is needed. Most of the time, he relies on his brain to deal with the enemy. In the later stage, Chu Jungui relies on the Mist Clan. The mind of the Mist Tribe and the body of the Mist Clan defeated the Federation. Now entering the real dream, all artificial creations were stripped away and thrown into a strange world naked. Under the pressure, Chu Jungui discovered that even his own body still had a lot of potential to be tapped.
At this time, Kaitian had turned several pieces of bark into fibers, and Chu Jungui immediately skillfully weaved the fibers directly into clothes, even skipping the weaving process.
Exactly 2 hours after entering the real dream, Chu Jungui put on a T-shirt, cropped pants, and a pair of fingerless gloves.
With basic clothes, I no longer feel the coldness in the gentle breeze, and the heat loss is blocked by the clothes. It seems that this is also a unique part of real dreams.
Chu Jungui patted himself. After the basic defense was in place, the next step was tools, weapons and camps. He looked up at the sky. There was a light blue sun in the sky, which was somewhat similar to the sun of Planet No. 4. In addition, there is a planet in the sky that occupies a small half of the sky, and another planet that, although smaller, looks larger than its parent moon.
"Is this on a satellite of a gaseous planet?" Chu Jungui had a vague guess.
Judging from the movement of the sun over the past two hours, a day here is 20 hours long, with 12 hours of daytime and 8 hours of night. Due to the reflection of the gas giant planet, there is also a certain amount of light here at night, and the visibility is quite good in the morning and evening periods of one hour each.
It will be dark in 6 hours. There are always dangers in the dark, and cold is one of them. Among the last batch of unlucky people who explored real dreams, there were a few idiots who didn't build houses during the day and slept around the campfire at night, and then died in the cold late at night.
Unlike Chu Jungui, Kaitian didn't feel cold at all.
By observing Kaitian, Chu Jungui roughly understood what was going on. The physical rules of real dreams are different from reality. The air and all materials here have extremely strong thermal conductivity and absorb heat through energy fields, so a small breeze can take away a large amount of heat. The human body structure corresponds to the environment of the home planet, so it is particularly unsuitable here.
Kaitian belongs to the Mist Clan. The essence of the Mist Clan is single-celled life. The defense is all on the cells. It will be fine if it doesn't blow to the cell nucleus, so it can't be affected by the cold wind.
The next step is to cut down the trees. The trees here can also burn. With fire, there is everything.
If you want to chop down a tree, you must first prepare tools. Chu Jungui doesn't want to waste precious loading space on evolving a row of teeth that can chew trees, nor can he use nails that can scratch trees.
He already knew the physical properties of several types of slate and shale, so he picked up a few pieces, placed them on the huge pebbles that were particularly hard, and started pounding them. After smashing a few pieces, Chu Jungui finally mastered the physical properties of this rock and successfully smashed out a beautiful ax blade. However, take another branch, cut off one end, clamp the ax blade and tie it with a fiber rope, and it will become a pretty good stone axe.
Chu Jungui weighed the stone ax in his hand. It was only after humans had this thing that they began to dominate the mother planet, right?
Naturally, such a primitive stone ax cannot be expected to play any important role. Chu Jungui chose a small tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl and chopped it down with an axe. He carefully controlled his strength to prevent the newly made stone ax from falling apart.
Kaitian next to him finally understood: "So you want to chop down the tree!"
"This is the basis of everything..." Chu Jungui told Kaitian enthusiastically about the history of primitive mankind's struggle in the Stone Age while cutting down trees.
However, Kaitian listened indifferently: "The evolutionary history of a group of lower creatures is no different from fish coming ashore. Besides, Master, you are not a human being, so don't go over there."
Chu Jungui was speechless. Strictly speaking, he really couldn't be considered a human being.
The test subject frowned: "Humans have many ways to define..."
"No matter how many ways there are, the methods they approve of themselves definitely don't include you."
Kaitian didn't know that his words had blocked Chu Jungui half to death. He was looking left and right at a large tree with a diameter of half a meter, and then extended his body into a ring and wrapped it around the tree. .
With a crash, Chu Jungui finally chopped down the small tree. He wiped away the non-existent sweat with satisfaction. He looked around and was stunned: "Kaitian, what are you doing?"
The ring formed by Kaitian's body shrank and wrapped around the tree, and then all the detailed sounds were heard, like countless ants biting something at the same time. A thin line appeared on the trunk of the big tree and quickly extended inward.
2 minutes later, the big tree fell down!
Chu Jungui felt complicated in his heart. It turned out that Kaitian had cut down another tree.
Kaitian is very smart and bites out a bevel, which avoids the embarrassment of biting off but unable to push. An idea flashed in his mind and he said: "Master, I have thought of another good idea..."
I saw Kaitian's body turned into a thin layer of tens of meters, and suddenly surrounded seven or eight trees at the same time, and the thin gnawing sound sounded again. After a while, big trees fell down automatically, leaving only the thickest one still hanging on.
The test subject felt a fire of ignorance rising in his heart. He looked at a tree as thick as a bowl next to him, and suddenly a kick flew up. With a click, the small tree was kicked down!
This tree is actually thicker than the one he chopped down carefully just now.
