Chapter 597: First Time Making a Car, a New Upgrade for the Mechanics!

The temperature in forging is an accumulation process. The more heat is released instantly, the stronger the heat preservation and high temperature resistance of the furnace body, and the higher the temperature.

Not counting the converters and open furnaces in modern industrial manufacturing, the furnace can reach two or three thousand degrees.

The brick kiln, which gathers the wisdom of the people, can also raise the temperature to eight or nine hundred degrees.

Even the iron smelting furnaces in some roadside workshops can control the temperature above a thousand degrees to melt pig iron.

Even if the territory is now poor and lacks a large amount of basic raw materials, it is not difficult to raise the temperature to 1500 degrees to melt the robot.

With the help of the experience accumulated by predecessors.

Through the calcium carbide method, calcium carbide is reacted with water to finally generate colorless, aromatic and flammable gas acetylene.

Then a large amount of oxygen is generated and stored through laboratory methods.

Great efforts can make miracles.

As long as the amount of acetylene and oxygen is large, let alone 1500 degrees, even 3000 degrees is not a problem.

Over there, Ai Jianfeng and several of his disciples began to prepare materials and start the furnace.

Here, Su Mo and Lu Kuan also got busy, using the tools at hand to create the mold.

Because there was no stamping machine, after the robot melted into alloy water, it was necessary to use the cast iron method as soon as possible to introduce it into the previously made mud film for shaping.

This work must be completed in one go.

If the mold is not made with enough precision, causing the structure of several stress points of the climbing car to collapse first, it must be put into the furnace again for smelting before it can continue.

Busy.

Time quietly came to two o'clock in the afternoon.

With Ai Jianfeng's first good news that he had prepared, he filled in the last stroke and checked it again with Lu Kuan against the drawings.

The entire smelting process officially started!

With mature technology, top masters supervising, and system upgrades as a guarantee.

During the whole process, Su Mo was not nervous, but instead relieved the pressure of others in the process.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, the last arm of the robot also turned into silver-white alloy water and flowed into the storage container.

The model on the other side was connected to the lower liquid of the container.

Seeing the liquid composed of alloy flowing into the mud film without hindrance, it collided with the temperature of the outside world and burst out with wisps of white gas.

Everyone's heart was raised to their throats, and they dared not make a sound.

Fortunately, the pouring process was not long. It only took about five minutes to completely pour all the liquid into the model, and just waited for it to cool down.

"It's not easy. If you really count, this is the first car we made by hand in the wasteland!"

The cold air outside and the temperature of the alloy surface were stirred back and forth. Standing near the dreamlike furnace, Lu Kuan sighed.

Using the first car and making the first car are completely two different concepts.

As long as this success, the follow-up means that once there are enough materials in the territory, vehicles can be produced continuously.

This is a major breakthrough from zero to one. Even he did not expect it to be completed so quickly.

"It won't be long. The pace of humans in the deep sea is getting faster. We can't keep developing so slowly."

"As long as we have enough accumulation of foundation, we can start to develop drastically!"

Staring at the frame that has not yet been fully formed, Su Mo said a little comfortingly, but his mind was on the attribute interface that had just been identified.

[All-terrain climbing car alloy frame (level 5 alloy)]

[Description]: The frame made of level 5 alloy can help the passengers and resist most direct kinetic energy impacts

[Completion rate]: 91% (93 of the 127 stress points are perfectly filled, 18 are in good condition, and 16 are in qualified condition)

[Upgrade direction 1]: Stress repair: Repair the structural stress loss caused by rough craftsmanship during the production process of the frame, ensure that all stress points are in perfect condition, and upgrade requires survival points (590)

[Upgrade direction 2]: Alloy upgrade: Upgrade from level 5 alloy to level 6 alloy, greatly improve the structural strength of the entire frame, and have stronger impact resistance and kinetic energy absorption Collapse ability, and during the upgrade process, repair the completeness of the entire frame to ensure that every stress point can be in perfect condition. Upgrading requires survival points (13180; corresponding materials can be reduced: low-level alloys, iron, copper)

[Upgrade direction three]: Frame modification: Although there are no major defects in the current frame design, it has not perfectly found a balance between internal space and biological safety. After the upgrade, the frame will have stronger structural force and better quality materials to better protect the internal riding creatures, and there is a greater chance of deriving other attributes. Upgrading requires survival points (29000; corresponding materials can be reduced: KF energy stone, meteorite)

Manpower will always have precision errors.

Seeing the completion degree given by the attribute interface, Su Mo nodded slightly, without much dissatisfaction in his heart.

From a structural point of view, as long as all stress points are in a qualified state, they can perfectly perform their tasks and ensure force balance.

Perfection is only a difference of 0.001, and the role it plays in the real environment is minimal.

As for upgrading.

Considering that he was riding it himself, Sumo still spent a lot of money and chose upgrade method 1, which made up for the stress points of the entire frame and made it perfect.

As for the other two upgrade directions.

The second alloy upgrade, even if all the required materials except the low-grade alloy were invested, the final reduction still required a full 9,000 points, which was ridiculously expensive.

The third frame modification, after investing KF energy stones, still required a full 15,800 points, which made people have no desire to spend.

590 points were automatically deducted, and a faint green color was scattered, and it returned again after just a slight sweep on the frame.

In the eyes of others, in just a second, except for a few tiny arcs that suddenly became more pleasing to the eye.

There was no change in the rest.

"You guys watch here now, I'll go back and get the robot to assemble the tires, and try to complete the overall manufacturing of this climbing car today!"

"Okay!"

Knowing that the frame would be 100% successful, Su Mo was not stupid enough to stand and wait for the subsequent molding and a lot of testing.

After leaving all these jobs to Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng to take care of them, Su Mo went all the way back to the shelter and sat down at the long-sealed work table on the third floor.

Since going to the sea, I have come to the new world again.

A large number of villagers have done the basic work for him.

Ai Jianfeng and others also help with the complex work.

This table where he once made his first fortune, Su Mo rarely has time to sit down and make something.

Even when reading, Su Mo would sit on a recliner on the first floor and look at the village from afar.

But now.

Sitting here again, Su Mo only felt a sense of peace and tranquility from the heart.

He squatted down and opened the secret compartment behind the work table. There was a different world behind the seemingly ordinary table.

From the outside, it was just a wall that merged with the stone wall of the shelter.

But in fact, after Su Mo hunched over and got in, he could suddenly find that it was a storage room that was not connected to the outside world, and the only entrance and exit was under the work table.

This was a secret place set up before going out to sea to store some precious items that could not be taken away.

Until now, the things stored inside are still the same as when they were put in, but they are covered with a layer of dust.

"A total of 36 robots were brought out from Liangfang Town before. 16 robots were upgraded to build the Hope and to serve as seamen later."

"Now there are 20 robots left, which is just enough to spare 16 robots for tires!"

Walking to the corner, Su Mo pushed the dust box containing the robot out of the hole, and then squatted down again to return to the work table.

Compared with the mechanic, the original Feifei brand semi-intelligent robot is very stupid. Not to mention being installed in the tire, even normal use is very constrained.

However.

With enough survival points to upgrade, Su Mo is not worried at all.

He silently recited some terms related to the tire robot in his mind, and the upgrade attribute panel automatically called out with a thought.

[Feifei brand semi-intelligent series-mechanical worker (excellent)]

[Description]: This mechanical worker has no sense of design and technology, and the design concept of "great strength creates miracles" runs through it from beginning to end. Adhering to the violent concept of "if the design is not good enough, make up with materials", both the outer shell of the mechanical worker and the inner nerve transmission shaft are made of expensive synthetic materials, but the transmission efficiency is -3520%, which is really the work of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix.

[Design flaws]:

[Upgrade direction 1]: Maintenance mechanic: Modify the appearance structure of the mechanic to a certain extent, and provide a manual for manufacturing small tools used by the mechanic; fix the logical errors in the maintenance level of the mechanic, integrate a series of maintenance methods for common items, open the port for importing the maintenance manual, the user can freely write the material transmission recognized by the maintenance mechanic, and after a certain period of automatic familiarity with artificial intelligence, you can start repairing, upgrade requires survival points (480; single; can provide corresponding material reduction, the maximum reduction is 45)

[Upgrade direction 2]: Driving mechanic: greatly transform the focus of the mechanic, and make drastic changes to its appearance; fix the logical errors in the AI ​​intelligence of the mechanic, integrate the corresponding driving technology, and can drive various vehicles in the conventional sense, open the port for importing the driving manual, the user can freely write the material transmission recognized by the driving mechanic, and after a certain period of automatic familiarity with artificial intelligence, you can drive a new vehicle, upgrade requires survival points (515; single; can provide corresponding Material reduction, maximum reduction of 120)

[Upgrade direction three]: Screw Mechanic: Greatly reduce the size of the Mechanic, and comprehensively transform the external structure of the Mechanic so that it can be integrated into other tools or items and exist as a substitute; repair the logical errors inside the Mechanic, open the external structure port, and the user can freely input the corresponding control code to adapt to the original items. Upgrade requires survival points (625; single; can provide corresponding material reduction, maximum reduction of 220)

[Upgrade direction four]: Adventure Mechanic: Integrate KF energy stones into the energy slot of the Mechanic, replace the previous old battery charging method, greatly enhance the battery life, up to 360 days; comprehensively modify the internal logical structure of the Mechanic, so that it has a certain degree of autonomous AI intelligence, which can help users explore the external terrain and return corresponding information in time with the help of conduction means. Upgrade requires survival points (2290; single; can provide corresponding material reduction, maximum reduction of 990)

It is still the same as last time, four different upgrade methods.

Because the direction of Su Mo's inner calling is different, the upgrade direction is also very different.

The previous bionic mechanics, all-purpose mechanics, and combat agents.

All disappeared.

They were replaced by three new types: maintenance mechanics, driving mechanics, and screw mechanics.

At the same time, the psionic special forces that needed to fuse psionic energy and cost a terrible amount of money also disappeared.

They became new adventure mechanics that integrated KF energy stones, and the cost was sharply reduced.

"Really good, this mechanic's upgrade potential is really high"

"The four directions last time were all very useful, and I didn't expect it to be the same this time. I really want to upgrade a batch of them!"

Su Mo admired sincerely.

Only one maintenance mechanic is needed to complete repetitive work, which greatly solves the dilemma of not having a repairman when traveling in the wild.

Driving mechanics look ordinary, but just thinking about the fact that this thing can drive various basic vehicles is enough to know its preciousness.

Screw mechanics can not only be used in tires to replace the tentacles in the design of all-terrain climbing vehicles, but can also be installed in other items for temporary emergency.

And the last adventure mechanic, its role is like a robot version of a hidden agent.

It can not only climb mountains and ditches to wade through dangerous places, but also help users avoid dangers ahead without fear of life and death. It is said to be adventurous, but in some cases, it may be of great use!

"The sixteen screw mechanics for the climbing car are fixed, and the quota cannot be reduced"

"The remaining four"

"A maintenance mechanic is very necessary. If the climbing car breaks down on the road, it can be repaired in time, so that it will not become an iron lump that can only be seen but not used"

"Upgrade the remaining three to adventure mechanics!"

The driving mechanic can now be temporarily replaced by manpower, and there is no rush.

On the contrary, the adventure mechanic used for exploration is extremely useful once entering the unfamiliar mountains.

Not only can it explore the terrain in front first.

It can also use the adventure mechanic to conduct long-distance exploration to confirm the risk level after sneaking into the vicinity of the opponent's camp.

Do it as soon as you say it.

Calculate the basic materials required for the two upgrades, list the requirements, and hand it over to Shen Ke, the general manager, to prepare.

Taking the vehicle back to the energy stone excavation site, I took 120 kilograms of energy stones that had just been mined and were still hot.

Wait until everything is ready.

Pile the materials together, 6480+435+2970, a total of 9885 points, which will be automatically deducted after Su Mo confirms the upgrade.

"Oh, I didn't expect that this upgrade would bring me back to the original point!"

At eight o'clock in the morning, the survival points were just over 10,000 again.

It only took half a day and two upgrades, and the survival points dropped directly from five digits to three digits, which can be said to be a return to poverty overnight.

However.

Watching the scattered green light begin to melt the materials next to it, lifting up the robot and slowly transforming it.

Su Mo said it was a pity, but he was quite looking forward to it in his heart.

"Build the climbing car today, prepare for a day, and you can go into the mountains tomorrow!"
