A feeling of weakness surged up, letting Chu Jungui know that he had reached his limit.
"It heated to 700 degrees in 3 minutes, and the load-bearing position also dropped from 210 to 200. This is an all-round optimization, not bad, but far from enough." At this time, after the first optimization of the basic thermal energy under the energy application component, Already has an initial version number: 0.4.
"Call 60% of the computing power for the second optimization." Chu Jungui ordered in his mind, and after a moment he estimated the time required for the second optimization: 21 hours and 14 minutes.
Chu Jungui started the secondary optimization, then threw the metal in his hand on the anvil made of pebbles, and struck it with another pebble in his hand. At this time, Kaitian was wandering in the forest and had entered the central area of the forest. It turned into a ten-meter-square mist and moved slowly in the forest. All intelligence information was collected wherever it passed.
Suddenly, Kaitian felt a strong attraction and drifted over involuntarily. After bypassing several large trees, a clearing appeared in the forest. Within a radius of nearly a hundred meters, a plant similar to a cactus grew. As soon as he entered the clearing, Kaitian felt like he was bathing in a hot spring, so comfortable that every cell in his body was groaning.
Kaitian's unusual movements were immediately known to Chu Jungui. His consciousness turned here and he observed the cactus in front of him through Kaitian's eyes.
It was only over one meter tall, with several branches. The whole body was a strange yellow-green color, as if covered with patina, and only the tops of the branches had a cluster of small thorns.
Chu Jungui picked up the metal block that had been basically forged into shape, and inserted a wooden stick that had been chewed by Kaitian, which turned into a primitive hammer. But no matter how primitive it is, it is still a metal hammer. With Chu Jungui in hand, his combat power is greatly increased. He grabbed the hammer and rushed into the forest, heading straight for Kaitian.
By the time Chu Jungui stepped into the forest clearing, Kaitian was almost lying on the weird cactus. Chu Jungui immediately felt a slight strangeness on his skin, as if he was being pulled by static electricity.
He was shocked. This was radiation, extremely strong radiation, exceeding 30,000 roentgens per hour! Ordinary people will die if they are photographed for half a minute. Even if it was Chu Jungui, the feeling on his skin changed to a slight burning pain, which was a sign that he was starting to be injured.
Chu Jun took a step back and walked around behind a big tree. With the tree trunks blocking the radiation, the radiation was immediately weakened by half. Although it was still fatal to ordinary people, it would take half a minute to accumulate a sufficient dose, and it was completely harmless to the test subjects.
The radiation intensity in this forest glade is already comparable to that inside a reactor with little protection, but the forest seems to be a natural protection. As long as it is blocked by three layers of large trees, the radiation will completely disappear.
Chu Jungui stood behind the tree and began to load components for comprehensive body protection. This is a basic component and the required carrying position is 30. It will generate a layer of high-strength physical particles on the surface of Chu Jungui's skin, and at the same time generate several to dozens of layers of energy-absorbing cells deep in the skin.
Kaitian's look was not that he was hurt, but that he was enjoying himself. It also showed that there was no risk to him here, so Chu Jungui was not in a hurry.
Three minutes later, the components were loaded. When he walked into the forest clearing, Chu Jungui only felt his skin was slightly heated. This was caused by the energy-absorbing cells absorbing radiation and releasing heat energy. After loading the comprehensive protection, Chu Jungui can move here for at least an hour without being harmed. At this time, his resistance to radiation was already 60 times that of ordinary people.
At this time, Kaitian had turned himself into a cover and buckled it entirely on the cactus. His mist-like body is emitting blue fluorescence, which is excited by super-strong radiation. The radiation that Chu Jungui felt came from Kaitian's body, and the amount of radiation around that cactus probably exceeded one hundred thousand roentgens.
How can a plant have such powerful radiation? Most high-purity radiation materials are nothing more than this, right?
Chu Jungui observed Kaitian's condition for a while, and then felt relieved after confirming that its life characteristics were improving rapidly. But within a few minutes, Kaitian shouted: "I can't do it anymore, I can't bear it anymore!"
Chu Jungui immediately left the forest clearing and hid behind a big tree. A wisp of light smoke flew over from the sky, but now every cell in his body was glowing with blue light, even his transformed face. blue.
"Master, please wait a moment and let me take a bite first. I'm so hungry!"
Without waiting for Chu Jungui to agree, Kaitian jumped directly onto a big tree nearby. The bark between half a meter and three meters from the ground began to slowly thin, and then countless fine dust scattered. Those are things that Kaitian doesn't want or can't digest.
It wasn't until the entire bark disappeared that Kaitian was full. Its weight had soared to 400 grams.
This strong radiation source can stimulate the growth of Kaitian. This is a conclusion that we already know, but we didn't expect that it would stimulate Kaitian so much in a real dream.
That cactus is obviously worth studying, but it's just not easy to get close to without Kaitian. Chu Jungui checked the surrounding big trees and found that their bark had obvious radiation protection function, so he peeled off the bark and made a set of protective clothing on the spot, then took a fresh metal shovel, Chu Jungui Just go back to the clearing. This time the sky turned into mist and wrapped tightly around Chu Jungui. It is the best radiation protection, otherwise even the test subject cannot withstand the terrifying radiation of that cactus.
Chu Jungui squatted down in front of the cactus, observed its appearance, then took out a knife and cut a small opening on a branch. A kind of juice with blue light flows out from the incision. This is not actually luminous, but caused by the strong radiation in the juice reacting with the air.
Chu Jungui cut off a complete branch and observed the cross section, but saw nothing. The radiation was so strong that it completely interfered with Chu Jungui's spectral vision.
Chu Jungui put the branch aside, picked up the shovel and started digging. He saw that the cactus's root system was extremely developed. Chu Jungui chose several points. The farthest one reached the edge of the open space, and the deepest one was two meters deep. You can see the cactus roots.
It's almost enough for Gu to achieve this step. The roots of this cactus may reach tens of meters or even deeper. Judging from the cross-section of the roots, there is also a large amount of radiation-rich sap inside.
Now Chu Jungui doesn't have any instruments, so he can't do in-depth research. But with this cactus, Kaitian's production speed is three times the normal rate.
Kaitian examined himself and found that he would hug a cactus basically every three hours. After hugging, his cell metabolism would increase dozens of times, and most of his cells would begin to divide, requiring him to eat immediately to replenish his body's consumption.
However, the branches cut by Chu Jungui also had extremely strong radiation, but it decayed very quickly and could last for dozens of days.
Chu Jungui checked the time and decided to stay here for one more day and go to the second-level area tomorrow. There are already enough things worth exploring in the initial area. If this was the real world, Chu Jungui would like to dig dozens of meters on the spot to see where the roots of the cactus extend. He guessed that there was a vein of radiation underground, and that the radioactive material was collected and purified by the cactus' roots, and then this terrifying cactus was born.
With a little processing, this thing could probably be used directly as a nuclear weapon, right? Chu Jungui guessed.
Day five.
At this time, Kaitian has condensed a complete human form, but it looks a little thin. In fact, it is really difficult to condense a 1.7-meter human form with its weight of 1,000 grams. The weight has increased several times, which means that the ability to open the sky has been improved in all aspects. At least now it is much faster to chop down a tree.
Chu Jungui has also changed his equipment. He has two bows, one long and one short, on his back. He has 5 heavy arrows and 30 light arrows on his waist. All of them have been replaced with metal arrows. They are also three-sided armor-piercing arrows with extremely sharp edges. , shining coldly. These arrows have been chewed by Kaitian, and the effect is comparable to that of a master's blessing.
He also wore a leather vest on his upper body for added defense. This leather backpack was filled with tools and a cactus branch wrapped heavily in bark.
Chu Jungui glanced at the small camp behind him with some reluctance. To be honest, he lived quite well here, and he didn't understand why he had to go deep into the dangerous area.
At this time, a reminder came from Chu Jungui's consciousness that the second optimization of basic thermal energy had been completed.
Chu Jungui did a test on the spot. After this optimization, the extreme temperature has increased to 900 degrees, and the metal block has softened and turned red. At the same time, the required load capacity dropped again to 190. However, when the metal temperature reached 900 degrees, Chu Jungui could no longer grab it with his bare hands.
For this reason, Chu Jungui improved the comprehensive protection of the components, which is limited to the hands. In addition to significantly improving the physical defense, it can also greatly slow down the heat input. In this way, it is still okay to catch metal below a thousand degrees for a few minutes, but it will not work if it is longer.
After the optimization is completed, Chu Jungui has a new component: biological gauntlets. It’s just that this component itself requires 30 carrying positions, which increases the overall burden.
After the basic thermal energy optimization was completed and everything was ready, Chu Jungui finally left the small camp and went to explore the distance.
In the lobby of Exploration Part 1, many people finally breathed a sigh of relief: "He finally moved!"
"My Mr. Hengxing, this man doesn't think he's on vacation, does he?"
"Well, although this old man has a weird temper, he still has some skills. Wasn't that guy from the second department killed as soon as we met?"
"Originally, the two of them met early. What a good start! Why did they meet those bastards from the second part!"
"Stop talking, this matter is still troublesome. It is said that the Second Department has already filed a complaint with the Ministry of National Defense."
On the holographic image in the center of the hall, a small light spot finally left the initial area and began to move slowly.
At this time, a piece of information came in, suddenly causing the entire command hall to fall into silence. The Federation has officially entered the third level area. This speed is a full 6 hours faster than the last change.
Someone suddenly whispered: "How about applying for that privilege..."
