Chapter 1606 I Am Not a Person Who Likes Violence
This is a small refining room, more precisely, it is a suite with a living room and a small warehouse next to it that stores various experimental materials. I don't have to go out for a month.
From this point of view, this place is a bit like a "dongfu" isolated from the world and practicing in seclusion.
There is no one else in the refining room, only an old craftsman with messy gray hair and a wrinkled face like a dried walnut. He is concentrating on a small blood-red bead. Not long ago, The one that Cheng Xuansu took out from Tang Xiaoxing's throat.
"Bravo!"
In front of the old craftsman is a magnifying and microscopic imager composed of 251 chips, which helps more than a dozen ultra-miniature probes that are as thin as cow hairs or even mustard seeds, to solve the problem, peel off the cocoon, Peel off the shell of the blood-red bead layer by layer.
On the light curtain excited by the microscopic imager, the surface of the small beads less than three millimeters in diameter is intricately covered with hundreds of talisman arrays, hundreds of intrigues, connected in series, attracting and resonating with each other, emitting An extremely weak and fluctuating rune array!
And that's just the first layer.
In fact, this small bead with a precise diameter of 2.78 mm, like an onion, is divided into seven layers in total, each layer can move independently, and engraved with nearly 500 talisman arrays.
In the end, it is only a tiny, dust-like crystal essence that provides energy for these talisman arrays.
"It's an unbelievable structure. Just to separate seven layers of metal shells that are as thin as a cicada's wings in a space the size of a grain of rice, but which must be able to operate freely, is a miraculous method, and it takes such a small crystal. Marrow, to accurately allocate spiritual energy to a total of 497 talisman arrays, really, really"
The old craftsman panted excitedly, his eyes seemed to be seeing his first love for the first time after traveling through hundreds of years.
His face was covered with wrinkles, and even his facial features were covered by wrinkles, making him look extremely old.
But his hands are still as delicate as a newborn baby, as delicate as a girl's slender hands.
And the movements of his hands are as light and gentle as stroking the satin-like skin of his first love.
He squinted his eyes halfway, his ten fingers released strands of spiritual threads, and stroked all the talismans inside the small beads one by one, the more he stroked, the more greedy and fanatical his eyes became.
"This is a set of locator arrays, but compared with the locator array I designed, the area is reduced by 11%, the consumption of spiritual energy is reduced by 19%, the fluctuation of the spiritual energy emitted is less, and the concealment is stronger!"
"This is... This is actually a set of spatial surveying and mapping chip sets, which can scan the entire spatial situation along the way and turn it into the most accurate three-dimensional map!"
"Well, this is a transmission unit used to emit clustered psionic energy fluctuations to the outside world. With this thing, a receiver in the outside world can simultaneously receive all the information detected by this magic weapon. It is quite delicate design, It seems that a lot of prehistoric ruins technology has been used, which is more advanced than ours!"
"Fortunately, this magic weapon was discovered in time, and it was soaked in the 'barrier fluid', making it useless, otherwise it would be a big trouble."
"Wait, what is this? The thirty-three rune arrays in the innermost layer seem to have nothing to do with positioning, detection, and transmission. It seems to be, it seems to be"
The old craftsman frowned and pondered for a long time, constantly adjusting the angle and magnification of the chip, and from time to time he looked up the information of the relevant symbol array through the crystal brain. After three minutes, he talked to himself and came to the conclusion, "It seems to be some kind of interference. Once the talisman array is activated, it can interfere with the surrounding defensive talisman arrays and warning magic weapons."
"However, there seems to be a problem with the design. Such a design is unlikely to be activated remotely. What's the use of activating it only at a close distance?"
"That's right, so many talisman arrays and chips with different functions have been stuffed into the square inch, and even a needle can't be inserted into it. It is impossible to cram another powerful remote activation talisman array!"
The old craftsman stroked his unshaven chin, thinking that if he designed it himself, would it be possible to redistribute the space occupied by the rune array and the chip, and then design a complex structure and powerful remote activation rune array.
After thinking deeply for a long time, the conclusion is still that it cannot be done.
"Who actually refined such a high-level magic weapon for tracking, mapping and positioning? Does the Star Federation or the True Human Empire after a thousand years of development actually have such a terrifying craftsman?"
The old craftsman muttered a few words, and began to quickly write an analysis report on the crystal brain.
However, when he inadvertently glanced at the light curtain of the microscopic imager, he suddenly saw an incredible scene.
The interference talisman array at the core of this small bead actually burst into a faint light, looking at him quietly like a bewitching eye.
"This is impossible!"
The old craftsman was terrified and almost screamed. This small bead has been completely paralyzed by him with a secret method, and it is completely under his control. It is absolutely impossible to be activated remotely unless the opponent is within ten meters. Pour divine thoughts into the talisman array!
The old craftsman's heart moved, and he thought of the most incredible possibility.
But before he could react, there was a sharp pain from his entire spine, and the pain rushed through his limbs like an unscrupulous flood, entangled every nerve and tendon in him, and made him unable to With a flick of a finger, even a single thought can't be transmitted!
The old craftsman slumped back to the chair weakly, and was turned around with the chair.
Then he saw himself.
The same gray and unkempt hair, the same wrinkled walnut-like face, the same facial features submerged in wrinkles, the same delicate hands as a baby, and the delicate hands of a girl.
He had the absurd illusion that he was facing a mirror.
No, this intruder who sneaked in without anyone noticing had a slightly different appearance from him at the beginning. The biggest difference was that kind of indifference and withdrawn, who dismissed everything except weapon refining. Quirky temperament.
However, within just a few seconds of observing him carefully, the other party seemed to have grasped the key points of his temperament. After a few deep breaths, he slowly emerged with almost the same affection, posture and even Heartbeat and breath!
"What a perfect refining technique!"
Of course, the old craftsman had a strong fear in his heart, but what was even stronger than the fear was his curiosity about the intruder.
He could see that the other party had used some kind of secret technique to pretend to be him, but this kind of secret technique was not just about changing the human body itself, but also involved a technique similar to a "human skin mask" to modify the face.
"Human skin mask" was originally a very outdated technology. It had not been used for a long time on the Firefly, and the old craftsman had never seen such an exquisitely refined human skin mask.
The other party stretched out his hand, and gently pasted a chilly wafer on top of his Adam's apple. The old craftsman swallowed his saliva, feeling that he had regained the ability to speak, but he could only speak softly, but it was impossible to yell and talk. Chanted the spell.
"Who are you?"
Even though he knew he couldn't get an answer, the old craftsman couldn't help asking.
Sure enough, the other party did not answer, but held a piece of hair in both hands, handed it to him, and said softly: "Professor Rhodes, the leading material science and micro-engraving expert on the Firefly, Tang Xiaoxing's tutor, this camouflage hair You made the hair-tracking magic weapon yourself, right? Tang Xiaoxing said, only you on the Firefly have such ultra-micro engraving technology. You can engrave more than a hundred talisman arrays inside the hollow tube wall as thin as a hair. Only you can come into contact with this new material refined from 'Linglong Jade' and 'Poisonous Spider Ghost Silk'."
The old craftsman's eyes were fixed, he thought for a long time, and gasped: "So, it turns out that the ultimate target of this positioning magic weapon is me!"
"That's right."
The opposite side said lightly, "Both Captain Tang Dingyuan and Speaker Cui Lingfeng are not so easy to be located and approached, but your defense here is too lax."
"Also, your role in the whole thing is quite critical."
"First of all, this tracking antenna disguised as hair has the same hair texture and luster as Tang Xiaoxing's own hair, which is the result of careful refining."
"Also, the other two tracking chips affixed to Tang Xiaoxing's body have the same refining style as this antenna, so they should be made by you too, right? From the appearance point of view, they are also integrated with her skin color and cannot be distinguished at all. "
"No matter the hair or skin color, they are all unique. In other words, when you refined these three magic weapons, you knew very clearly that they would be used on your student, Tang Xiaoxing, the daughter of Captain Tang Dingyuan."
"Then, Professor Luo, who has always lived reclusively, has a weird temper, and never asks about external affairs, what kind of role do you play in the whole thing?"
Professor Rhodes' eyes widened, not entirely because of the facts pointed out by the other party, but also because the other party's voice gradually changed, becoming exactly the same as his old and sharp voice!
Now, apart from the clothes on both sides, it is even difficult for him to tell each other apart!
"Usually, I am a person who advocates peace and conquers people with virtue, and strongly disapproves of the use of violence."
The other party sighed regretfully, "But time is running out now, if Professor Luo is still unwilling to tell the truth, I can only use some small means."
"Believe me, although it won't take long for the guards outside to find out what's going on inside, I will definitely turn this short hour into a hundred years!" (To be continued.)
