Chapter 240 Progress of the Synchrotron Core

Hearing Bai Quan's news, Chen Ming immediately asked: "Are the two colonies in Lou Wei ready?"

Bai Quan shook his head slightly and said: "There is no definite news yet, but the time is about right."

"As I just said, it has been almost half a month since the end of the simulation. The final verification should be in the next few days. You may need to go out at that time."

"Anyway, I have made all the preparations I should make here. The rest depends on how fast the other side can do things."

"By the way, are you dealing with the lost research data and other content? Remember to bring it with you when you go back, or send it to the people in charge of testing when you arrive."

Chen Ming didn't understand why he had to bring his research data when verifying his psychic power, and asked back: "Preparation is prepared, but it's not yet twenty-four days, right? So urgent?"

Bai Quan explained: "Because of the situation There is a little change. Lou Wei said that you can't do this for 24 days in the simulation. It is impossible to really give you 24 days to do research. "

"After all, you did a lot of things in the simulation, this is really nothing to say."

"So the review team finally reviewed it and decided to calculate the time given to you from the day the simulation ended, until the day Lou Wei took out the two colonies for you to test."

"After all, the data has not been restored, and there is no way to confirm how many days you have been active."

"It can be regarded as a disguised way of forcing Lou Wei not to delay, otherwise it will give you more time to do experiments."

"Of course, there is also a minimum deadline, which is twelve days, which is also a guarantee, so that Lou Wei will not take out the colony the next day to cheat you."

"So this result is also beneficial to you."

Chen Ming thought carefully about what Bai Quan said, and it seemed that there was indeed nothing wrong.

He picked up the terminal beside him, glanced at the schedule and said, "That's fine. Tell me in advance and I'll arrange the time."

Bai Quan nodded, turned around and sorted out today's lesson plan on Chen Ming's computer, and asked Chen Ming, "By the way, how is the synchrotron core I gave you before? Is there any problem? Do you need me to get you some more equipment?"

"No problem, the progress is okay, the equipment is not needed for the time being, but I don't mind if you give it to me."

Chen Ming smiled and said, "Anyway, I have figured out the general purpose, and I just need to summarize and finish the paper. If you want to listen, I can tell you about it now."

Bai Quan's hands, which were originally moving on the computer, immediately stopped and looked up at Chen Ming. Chen Ming said: "Tell me about it, I'm quite interested."

Chen Ming thought about what to say for a while, and then said: "This synchrotron core is a device for producing nanorobots, and its internal psychic structure is used to make nanorobots."

"Its special feature is that it can adapt to the industrial facilities where it is installed."

"In short, after it is installed, all the nanorobots it makes will be put into the production line."

"These nanorobots will synchronize with any industrial production equipment. After about a day of synchronization, the nanorobots will begin to assist in production and speed up overall production efficiency."

Bai Quan basically understood the effect of the synchrotron core just by listening to Chen Ming's description, but he still had one more question. A question: "How is this done?"

"First, the synchrotron core can control nanorobots."

"Second, there is a device similar to an analytical device inside the core, which can use the nanorobots controlled by the core to analyze the situation of the production equipment installed in the core."

"Based on the data of the civilization in the core, the entire production facility is lightweight."

"The abilities of these nanorobots are actually a bit similar to mine. They can change the structure of the production line to a certain extent and optimize the logic of the production line."

"But there needs to be a foundation, unlike me who can create it directly out of thin air."

"That's about the effect."

Chen Ming paused for a moment and continued; "Of course, this thing also has limitations."

"This synchrotron core can only be used in factories where all industrial production steps can be completed in one factory. It cannot be used in factories that require cooperation of multiple factories to complete production."

Bai Quan asked again: "Why is that?"

"Because of the nanorobot residue."

"After the synchrotron core is synchronized, the production efficiency of the factory or industrial facility will be accelerated. The production line inside will be full of nanorobots."

"Although it is often invisible to the naked eye, the nanorobots are there, and there must be a lot of them on the products produced."

"It will not affect the use, but it will affect other factories for secondary processing."

"Uh...it can't be said to affect it. The main reason is that the nanorobots manufactured by different synchrotron cores will interfere with each other."

"Unless there is the ability to directly remove the nanorobot residue, the nanorobot residues manufactured by different cores will conflict. Once the residues are too much, they will all be piled up in the secondary processing factory, affecting the quality of the secondary processing."

"So either one factory will produce everything, or only one factory among several factories will install the synchrotron core."

"For example, when building a spaceship, the armor, engine, hull, and weapons of the spacecraft all need to be manufactured separately and finally sent to the assembly plant."

"It is best to install only one synchrotron core in these factories, and it is best to try to arrange factories with later processes or longer construction periods."

"One is that the probability of problems is smaller, and the other is that work efficiency is accelerated."

Many thoughts about the core of the synchrotron flashed through Bai Quan's mind.

"Then the synchrotron core can't control the nanorobots to leave the things they produced?"

"It's really not possible, because the remaining nanorobots are damaged nanorobots. It would be okay if I were here. I can repair the nanorobots, but as for others..."

Chen Ming spread his hands.

"It's quite difficult to completely remove these damaged nanobots. Anyway, I don't have the ability to clean these things up now."

"Anyway, it's not bad even if there are such restrictions."

"If I were to do it, I would definitely throw the synchrotron core into a production equipment related to antimatter technology, preferably into an antimatter fuel production factory."

"Because this antimatter fuel production is only one production line, and the products produced are consumables. There is no cross-interference of nanorobots due to secondary use, so it should be the most suitable."

Bai Quan also nodded and agreed with Chen Ming's opinion, and then asked: "Does it have special effects for psykers like the Purgatory Core?"

"Yes, it is similar to the Purgatory Core. It requires psykers who have knowledge in this area to use it."

"Ordinary people can only be responsible for installing the synchrotron core, and then let the core take care of the rest."

Bai Quan suddenly felt a headache when he heard this and said, "Where did such a psychic come from?"

"Then it's not my problem. The empire is so big anyway, so maybe it's somewhere? Didn't you find a psyker who knows something about thermodynamics before?"

Bai Quan really had nothing to say. After all, Chen Ming had done everything he had to do. It would be a joke if he couldn't do the rest.

Upon seeing this, Chen Ming continued to explain to Bai Quan the use of the synchrotron core in the hands of psykers: "The effect of psykers using this core personally is that they can use psychic energy to accelerate the manufacturing process of nanorobots and batch batches with higher efficiency. Making Nanorobots."

"You can also actively use the core to control the manufactured nanorobots and put them into industrial production, instead of waiting for the core to automatically adapt."

Bai Quan listened to Chen Ming's words, and a trace of disappointment suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Not to Chen Ming, but to the synchrotron core.

Chen Ming also saw this trace of disappointment and explained: "It does not seem as strong as the Purgatory Core, but the psychic effect of the Purgatory Core's entropy control is really a bit outrageous."

"But to think about it differently, instead of comparing it with the Purgatory Core, a core like this that can continuously supply nanorobots as long as there are materials is still okay."

"And with the current technology of the empire, research on nanobots should have begun, right? At best, there haven't been many results yet."

"Even if you use this core to accelerate the research of nanorobots, it won't be a loss."

"Besides, the uses of nanorobots are not limited to these two, there are many other places where they can be used."

"This thing is a self-adapting synchrotron core. It can adapt to all kinds of strange factories, and it can also adapt to all kinds of strange functions."

"As long as it is an imaginable function, nanorobots can do it."

Bai Quan's curiosity was once again aroused by Chen Ming's words, and he asked: "Can you do everything you imagine?"

"Yes, just like this."

Chen Ming said as he opened the drawer of the table next to him and took out the synchrotron core that he had stuffed into the drawer after studying it last night.

"Is this how you put this thing?"

Amidst Bai Quan's complaints, Chen Ming's psychic fluctuations inspired the core of the synchrotron controlled by him.

The metallic liquid that then appeared out of thin air wrapped around the uneven core and was continuously absorbed into the interior by the core.

The synchrotron core used these metallic liquids containing all the materials it needed to make nanorobots to produce countless nanorobots that completely wrapped Chen Ming's arms.

The appearance of the nanorobot cluster also looks somewhat similar to metallic liquid, but it is rougher than the metallic liquid that looks purely smooth.

These nanorobots wrapped around Chen Ming's arm quickly formed a somewhat bionic-looking arm guard made entirely of nanorobots that fit perfectly with Chen Ming's arm.

Chen Ming patted his arm, and it made a solid and dull sound instead of the crisp sound of metal.

"This thing should have been called nanorobot power armor, but I prefer to call this nanosuit."

The nanorobots that make up the nanosuit arms on his arms freely form various structures under his control. Tools, weapons, armors, no matter how complex or exquisite the structure is, there is nothing that these nanorobots cannot reproduce. .

The number of nanorobots produced at the synchrotron core was still increasing, gradually enveloping him completely.

It constitutes a complete set of nanosuits designed by Chen Ming with reference to many games and movies.

Chen Ming used the metallic liquid to create a suspended iron block, and then punched the center of the iron block with such force that even Bai Quan could not react.

When he removed his hand, a clear fist mark appeared on the metal block.

This effect is slightly inferior to that of Zerg power armor, but the dexterity brought by the lightweight nanosuit cannot be matched by Zerg armor.

In Bai Quan's slightly changed eyes, Chen Ming then pulled out the revolver hanging from his waist and pointed it at his arm.

The trigger was pulled and a gunshot rang out, but Chen Ming was unhurt.

The bullet didn't even leave a mark on the nanosuit.

Chen Ming put the pistol back into the holster on his waist, once again created a powerful and high-penetrating electromagnetic javelin in his hand, aimed it at his arm, and pulled the trigger.

After the flash of electric light and the dull hammering sound, subtle water wave-like fluctuations appeared at the location where the nanosuit was hit, but they quickly disappeared.

Chen Ming waved his hand and let the nanorobot separate, revealing his intact arm.

There was a hint of interest in Bai Quan's eyes. He stepped forward and held Chen Ming's arm, observing the fault in the center of the nanosuit when the nanorobot separated.

But obviously nothing can be seen with the naked eye.

Chen Ming saw this and spoke again: "As you can see, the nanorobot itself is very strong, and it also has nano-level buffering properties. It is definitely not a problem when used in combat."

"The core of the synchrotron has a control center. As long as we figure out how it controls the nanorobots, mass production of nanosuits is not a problem."

And if it weren't for the poor compatibility between nanorobots and Zerg, Chen Ming wouldn't be able to get them together, otherwise the An Wuping he just made would definitely have more than the current technology.

At this moment, Chen Ming suddenly heard a knock on the door.

The guard's voice sounded outside the door: "Mr. Chen Ming, what happened?"

Chen Ming immediately said to the outside: "It's okay, I'm doing an experiment."

Although the previous security company was withdrawn at Chen Ming's request, the entire dome was handed over to Afterglow Core and security robots to handle security work.

However, afterglow cores also have limitations, at least when dealing with things that don't directly kill people, these afterglow cores are not too convenient.

Therefore, Chen Ming asked Baiquan to arrange some guards, so that Baiquan could receive the news from his side of the dome as soon as possible, which could be regarded as reassuring Baiquan.

After the guards left.

Chen Ming took off the nanosuit on his body, leaving behind a square brick made of dormant nanorobots.

Then he looked at Bai Quan and said, "Want to give it a try? I'll give it to you as soon as I turn around, along with research materials and so on."

Seeing Bai Quan shake his head, Chen Ming stuffed the nanosuit and the synchrotron core into the drawer again without saying anything.

"If you ask me to build things like nanobots, I definitely won't be able to build them, but if you ask me to use them, I will definitely use them."

Chen Ming stretched out his index finger and nodded his head and said, "I still have many ways to use nanorobots in my mind."

"Look at those mechanical races. Each individual has nanorobots in his body that can remain active for a long time. These nanorobots are responsible for maintaining and repairing the mechanical race."

"Just from this function, it can be completely extended. Everything from the nanosuit on my body to the warships in the sky can use this thing."

"This nanorobot can definitely develop more uses that I haven't thought of."

Bai Quan also changed his initial thoughts and said in agreement: "Indeed," this thing seems to be much more useful than I thought. "

"Of course, it's just that the technology of nanorobots is not too far away in reality, so it gives you this illusion."

"At least until we can really mass produce and control, and control nanorobots like synchrotron cores, synchrotron cores are still very useful."

"But I'm curious. Is the quantity of this thing the same as the Purgatory Core?"

Bai Quan immediately waved his hand and said, "That's not true. The number of synchrotron cores is quite small."

"There are very few acquisitions. The main reason is that the function of this thing has never been clear, so I leave it to you."

"So I estimate that after your complete report comes out, those synchrotron cores will be sent to industries related to antimatter technology for operation as you thought."

Chen Ming nodded slightly and said to Bai Quan: "I am becoming more and more curious now. How many good things did the empire get from another civilization?"

"There are definitely good things out there, but a lot of them are like this synchrotron core that no one can figure out what it's for, only you can do it."

"I will definitely continue to arrange such tasks for you in the future. I hope you won't find it troublesome."

Chen Ming immediately responded: "I have no objection."

"Just give me more equipment and a few more samples every time you give me a mission. If there is only one, sometimes it won't be easy for me to do destructive research."

"Okay, next time I will apply for two for you. As long as there is some success, it's okay to apply for two more."

Chen Ming was slightly satisfied and said: "The research report on the synchrotron core will be out in about two days. This time it shouldn't be the same as last time, right?"

"Your military merit has not been fully developed yet, and the first-class merit of a psyker is not the same thing as the first-class merit of an ordinary person. Well, I also said before that I actually don't know much about it, and I only asked about it later. Know the difference.”

"It should be the same this time, and it will also be counted as a first-class merit in the category of psyker."

"It can only be said that the research on this synchrotron core is still not enough. Only antimatter technology and your previous hyperspace jump can be considered special."

Chen Ming heard this and immediately said: "So you can make up for me..."

"Ahem..."

Bai Quan coughed twice, changed the subject and said, "You still have to wait for about half a month for your military merit. The approval of military merit is not that fast. It will take at least a month. I also have some connections to help you find out the final grade for you."

Chen Ming did not hold on to the technology of the hyperspace jump device, and followed Bai Quan's words and asked: "So what rewards are there for psykers?"

"Anyway, that's all. Psychic weapons, psionic equipment, psionic medicines, various auxiliary products, psionic plants, psionic animals, etc. In short, anything related to psionic energy, you can exchange it for military merit. correct."

"Replace it, right? I remember you talked about it before, so what exactly is the replacement method?"

"Contribution points, you can check it yourself. As for the psychic census network that registered you before, there is also a sub-network belonging to the imperial army. You can log in with your current identity.

"Why didn't I know there was such a thing before?"

"Because I forgot to tell you last time."

"..."

Chen Ming was speechless as he picked up the terminal and opened the psyker census website, and found a new web page entrance in the corner.

After clicking on it, Chen Ming said subconsciously: "What a simple web page."

Bai Quan showed a helpless expression and said: "The websites of the government affairs system are all like this. Don't look at whether they are ugly or not, just look at whether they can be used."

"The military merit contribution points of a psyker are divided according to the military merit level. It is very simple and crude. The third grade is 500, the second grade is 2,000, the first grade is 5,000, and the special grade is 10,000."

Chen Ming's eyes moved on the web page and suddenly said: "I now have contribution points, 723? Where do they come from?"

"You presided over a meeting of the mechanical clan before, and then demonstrated the actual control of the mechanical clan, and protected the safety of the people present when something went wrong this time. You should be given extra points for these."

"You can't get contribution points only by making meritorious deeds, right? You can get points for some things, but I really don't know the details. Anyway, I'll just add them to you."

"What a casual military merit system."

Bai Quan also agreed with Chen Ming and said, "The military industry system of psykers is quite casual."

"However, the military merits of ordinary people are fixed and have been arranged. Even if you have opinions, you can only refer to them. The main thing is to follow the rules. Unlike the military merits of psykers, you have room for choice."

"By the way, this page doesn't seem to have been around for a long time, maybe about a year or two."

“So this is just an attempt, maybe it will be better in the future.”

"What about before?"

"It was pretty much the same as it is now, just more verbal. You can't really treat the psyker badly."

"Fine."

Chen Ming responded and turned his attention to the web page.

At least there are quite a few of the things that can be exchanged that he is interested in.
