Fu Qinghai is sitting on an ergonomic chair, with a shadowless lamp above his head and a large metal experimental table in front of him. The tabletop is densely packed with mechanical materials, and he is surrounded by two precision CNC machine tools on the left and right.
Fu Qinghai wore a pair of yellow translucent protective glasses on his tall nose. He was lowering his head and concentrating on cutting the remains of a Hades Scarab with a micro-welding gun.
He has already tested the remains of the three Underworld Scarabs on various analysis and testing instruments in the laboratory, including mass density, internal structure, radioactivity, etc. The three Underworld Scarabs were damaged to varying degrees by the lightsaber. There were differences. Fu Qinghai first used the most severely damaged one to do a disassembly test.
Failed.
Fu Qinghai failed to completely reproduce the glyphs and circuit patterns burned into the body of the Underworld Scarab.
But a small pile of living metal was obtained, which is also a rare alloy material.
He only reproduced 32%.
Fu Qinghai opened the screen of the monitor on the side. This monitor was connected to a small supercomputer in the laboratory. However, Fu Qinghai did not intend to perform data calculations on this small supercomputer because it would leave traces of data in space. Fu Qinghai had no intention of sharing Necromancer's technology with Hammer Industries. He just wanted to play a song and listen to it.
Fu Qinghai put on his headphones, leaned back in his chair, relaxed his body, and the "Tony Stark Electronic Soul Backup" in his brain was running like crazy and analyzing.
A vast amount of data and information kept flashing through Fu Qinghai's mind. According to the analysis of 32% of the circuit patterns, this seemed to be a low-level control protocol.
Fu Qinghai narrowed his eyes slightly.
This is consistent with the setting of the Necrons that he knows.
The Necrons have continued the class distinction of Necrontyr society, but it is different from when they were still living creatures. After transforming into Necrons, various levels of control protocols form the cornerstone of the Necrons' huge dynasty.
The King controls the overlord, the overlord controls the lord, the lord controls the technicians and soldiers, and then there are the undead warriors and underworld structures that have no personality.
Before the Silent King Szarak himself destroys the master control agreement, all the kings will still be controlled by the Council of the Three Saints.
If...here I mean if, Fu Qinghai can crack the control protocol of the Underworld Scarab, theoretically he can possess the most buggy ability of the Necron - mass-energy conversion.
It's not just as simple as casually turning matter into energy, and then turning energy into matter.
Anyone with a little knowledge of modern industrial manufacturing knows that the mainstream of industrial manufacturing on earth is subtractive manufacturing. Even in the human empire forty thousand years later, the mainstream of industrial manufacturing is still subtractive manufacturing.
That is to say, first take out a piece of cast metal and then put it into various precision machine tools to cut, drill, hollow, stretch, twist, extend, etc.... Process it into a series of parts and then assemble them together. .
During this processing, the material changes from more to less.
Why is it that every time a 3D printer makes a technological breakthrough, it triggers a frenzy in the industry.
Because there are always limits to the shapes of industrial parts that can be processed by subtractive manufacturing.
The additive manufacturing represented by 3D printing technology is not this process. Instead, materials are added bit by bit directly from scratch. However, the strength of the current 3D printed materials is far from being comparable to traditional subtractive manufacturing.
The Necrons, thanks to their core technologies - living metal and mass-energy conversion, have implemented additive manufacturing in the entire industrial process.
Therefore, all the undead creations that Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian saw inside and outside the tomb were all perfectly integrated without any gaps.
Of course, even without additive manufacturing, mass-energy conversion is still buggy.
Fu Qinghai picked up the remains of the second Underworld Scarab.
Start trying to dismantle the replica.
The 32% in my head became 56%.
Failed again.
There's no next time.
Since there was only the last Underworld Scarab left, Fu Qinghai could not dismantle it. In that case, even if he finally cracked the low-level control protocol, he would not have the Underworld Scarab in his hand.
"Huh..." Fu Qinghai exhaled a breath, leaned back on the chair again, crossed his arms over his chest, and began to think deeply.
After thinking about it, Fu Qinghai changed his mind to that of the Mechanicus.
Let’s not try to crack the low-level control protocol for now. Let’s treat this less damaged underworld scarab as a kind of STC template, a black box production line. Try to repair it, at least to repair part of its functions, and then use It produces living metals in bulk.
I don’t understand the principle of using doctrine, but I can use it first.
Fu Qinghai used a micro-circuit welding gun and probe to try to repair the damaged circuits and glyphs in the Underworld Scarab's body.
This is not as simple as soldering spots on a circuit board. The circuits in the Underworld Scarab are three-dimensional. Fu Qinghai is operating with bare hands at this moment, which is a great test of his hand-eye coordination.
Fortunately, he still has Force perception, a sense that transcends the five senses.
The long night passed quietly.
…
Early the next morning, the whistle of a cruise ship was heard in the distance on the pier on the seaside.
Fu Qinghai suddenly woke up from the experimental table.
Fu Qinghai raised the Casio cube on his wrist and saw that 14 hours had passed.
Fu Qinghai plunged into the three-dimensional circuit diagram of the underworld scarab for 14 hours at a stretch.
Fu Qinghai straightened up, suppressing his excitement, his hands trembling slightly, picked up the underworld scarab, and placed it on the other two piles of debris that Fu Qinghai had dismantled into living metal fragments.
The head of this underworld scarab has been cut off by the lightsaber, leaving only one third. The row of mechanical claws under its body is motionless.
Still no response... Fu Qinghai frowned.
Suddenly, two of the sharp mechanical claws of the Underworld Scarab pulled. A faint green light emitted from the gaps between the metal beetle's limbs, and a handful of living metal disappeared.
Done!
Fu Qinghai was overjoyed.
It’s finally done!
Fu Qinghai quickly connected countless and dense cables to the severely disabled underworld scarab.
The other end of the cable is connected to the small supercomputer in the laboratory.
There is no way, Fu Qinghai can indeed directly model the model in his mind, but without gaining control of the control protocol, he cannot directly convert his brain waves into electrical signals for the Underworld Scarab to receive.
The Underworld Scarab began to slowly absorb the transformation material to provide itself with energy.
Fu Qinghai held his head in his hands and lay on the back of the seat.
The first step has been completed, so next, you need to start thinking about your own power armor.
Suddenly, Fu Qinghai's ears moved and he heard a voice coming from outside the small building.
Fu Qinghai let the crippled Underworld Scarab lie on the table and continued to slowly transform, while he stood up and walked out of the laboratory.
Outside the small building, Fu Qinghai saw Nathan Lemon, directing several workers wearing Hammer Industrial uniforms to put a huge machine on a trailer into the large warehouse attached to the small building.
Fu Qinghai slapped his head and remembered that Nathan Lemon said the day before yesterday that the instruments, equipment and raw materials Fu Qinghai needed would be delivered one after another today.
Nathan Lemon was also stunned when he saw Fu Qinghai. After he got off the boat, he didn't pay attention to the Hummer parked on the other side of the small building. Yesterday, after Fu Qinghai used his skillful driving skills to get rid of the tracking of Hammer Industries employees in the city, he didn't know what to do. I didn't expect him to appear in the laboratory early this morning.
Nathan Lemon looked Fu Qinghai up and down in surprise and said:
"Mr. Quentin, you...why have you become smaller?"
Fu Qinghai, who was originally 2.5 meters tall, is now only 1.9 meters tall.
Fu Qinghai shrugged and said:
"Henry Hank Pym, do you know? Pym Technology's technology was stolen by the CIA and copied by me. As long as you cooperate with my research, it will be provided to Hammer Industries in the future."
When Nathan Lemon heard this, his eyes shone slightly.
He had also heard about Dr. Pym's Ant-Man uniform, but later both Ant-Man and the Wasp disappeared, and the Pym Particles were also missing. Unexpectedly, Fu Qinghai could replicate this magical particle.
Fu Qinghai patted him on the shoulder, pointed at the worker who was carrying the machine and asked:
"These are what I want?"
Nathan Lemon nodded: "Yes, several more batches will be delivered one after another."
Fu Qinghai secretly thought that the cruise ship whistle he heard in the morning might be the ship used to transport this batch of goods. Hammer Industries might be collecting experimental equipment for himself from overseas.
Letting Nathan Lemon and others carry it, Fu Qinghai returned to the top floor of the laboratory.
Sit back on the chair and continue the train of thought.
Imagine the power armor you are about to build.
