I Am the Swarm

In the past, Luo Wen definitely wouldn't have dared to play like this, but now, the main body is actually closer to a tool for him. Apart from having unique attributes, it can be regarded as an excellent experimental prop.

After being a "networker" for so many years, Luo Wen's activities outside rely on his consciousness to descend and temporarily requisition the bodies of some node units. But the main body spends most of its time in the deep sea, and doesn't use it much.

Therefore, his mentality has changed a lot in these years. Rowan felt that he was like a mech pilot, and the node units, including the main body, were like his mecha. He can change the mecha at any time according to the actual situation. And what mecha do you want? Insects, birds, pterosaurs, tyrannosaurs, beasts and even ratmen, etc., can be created at any time as long as they have genetic templates.

Mech broken? Just replace it with another one. As for the main body, it is just a special mecha.

Of course, the main body and the mother nest should be protected. They represent the upper limit of the potential of the swarm and must not be destroyed at the same time.

As for a single one, it can still be sacrificed a few times occasionally.

Just like now.

The long-term high-intensity radiation environment allowed Rowan to collect a lot of data, but the main body was also damaged beyond repair.

Under the regretful eyes of the "half of us", the body was incinerated and destroyed. A month later, an identical bug was sent to the lab again.

The "half of my own people" are a little confused, don't they say that this thing is very rare?

Since there are many types of radiation sources, radiation protection experiments cannot be completed in a short time. Luo Wen understands this truth. Apart from ensuring that the progress of the experiment will not be slowed down due to human factors, he has no other way, but chooses to take time slowly.

Time passed, and during this time, many things happened at the Imperial Aerospace Research Institute on the other side.

First of all, with the strong support of the Queen of the Empire, the scale of the research institute has continued to expand. Moreover, this wind vane has affected the major choices of many young students.

Five years later, the number of scientific researchers in the institute is more than 20 times that of when it was first established. You know, the original Aerospace Research Institute was established on the basis of integrating relevant personnel from the two kingdoms.

According to statistics, the number of people registered at that time reached nearly 20,000.

Therefore, under the collision of many wisdoms, the scientific research progress of the moon landing project has also been rapidly improved.

The Ratmen have developed space technology for many years before, but sometimes, ideas alone are not enough. Under the secret guidance of Luo Wen, a scumbag, the Ratman's technology tree has seriously deviated, but without a strong industrial foundation and a complete system, it is simply a dream to make a moon landing rocket.

In the past few years, the Ratmen have successively launched many test rockets, but of course they all ended in failure. From Luo Wen's point of view, many experimental objects have not been able to fly as high as the Monkey King.

Failure is the mother of success, this is a very reasonable saying. In the constant failures, the rat people have gained a lot of experience and lessons. Subsequent works are also getting closer and closer to the appearance of the rocket in Roy's memory.

But after reaching a certain level, the rat people found that according to the theoretical concept diagram, no samples could be produced.

Super-speed flight requires the rocket's external materials to be strong, compressive, and heat-resistant, and at the same time reduce weight as much as possible. Ratmen's material technology is not good enough, so they can't be made.

Rocket engines are becoming more and more sophisticated, and the ratmen's machine tools are not good enough to make them.

Aerospace fuels, combustion accelerants, and oxidizers, the Ratmen's refining technology is not good enough, so they can't be produced.

There are also many related technologies that cannot be realized due to one reason or another. If there is no stimulus from external factors, maybe this topic will be shelved due to excessive wear and tear.

However, the Queen of the Ratmen couldn't help being an "insider". Under the influence of the empire's biggest external factors, a plan was proposed to bring all related fields under the unified jurisdiction of the research institute.

Queen Kerrigan's actions stunned many people. The Aerospace Research Institute eats up a lot of the empire's financial revenue every year, but it has been fruitless. At most, it will set off a few firecrackers every now and then for the big guys to watch.

But this firecracker is really too expensive, and the benefits in it are enviable. Many people have impeached and demanded the dissolution of the Aerospace Research Institute before, but they were all rejected by the Queen.

As the founding emperor of the country, the empress has unparalleled prestige. If she insists on doing what she wants, even if other people object, there is no good way.

But this expansion of the Aerospace Research Institute is like a godsend opportunity. All of a sudden, all kinds of rumors and slander spread everywhere, some said that the queen was fascinated by the little boy of the research institute, some said that the queen's brain was broken, etc., they said everything.

There are even remnants of the Myrican Kingdom, who want to take this opportunity to re-establish the royal court.

People are always forgetful, and it didn't take long for them to forget how Kerrigan was unified. Maybe there were too many benefits in it, so they deliberately forgot something.

But that's okay, Rowan is an enthusiast.

And so the ratmen who danced the most, both in the light and in the dark, began to die in their sleep.

Rowan's kind reminder finally reminded the rat people of their fear of being dominated by "accidents". All the rumors dissipated in an instant, and the Kerrigan Empire returned to stability and harmony, making ordinary melon-eating people unable to keep up with the rhythm, and they could only sigh that the world was changing too fast.

The proposal for the expansion of the Academy of Aerospace Sciences was passed at the speed of light without encountering any obstacles. Of the hundreds of thousands of people in the research institute today, most of them are people in related fields who were annexed at this time.

With the gradual improvement of various supporting systems, five years later, the rocket samples in the concept map were also manufactured. That is, in the same year, the Roman body entered the Xingkong private laboratory and started a series of adaptive experiments.

After the new rocket sample was manufactured and assembled, it went through several rigorous inspections, and two months later, the launch test was carried out. Unfortunately, shortly after the rocket took off, a ball of fireworks exploded in the sky, and bureaucrats and common people with a radius of 100 kilometers witnessed this scene.

Although the experiment failed, it also exposed many problems. Half a year later, the new rocket was assembled. The new rocket is 15 meters high and weighs 13.5 tons.

The front end of the rocket integrates gyroscopes, inertial navigation computers, radio command receivers and other equipment. The middle part is the fuel tank and the oxidizer tank, which uses a combination of alcohol fuel and liquid oxygen oxidizer, and the tail of the rocket is the engine and empennage.

When the system is in operation, fuel and oxidant are pumped into the combustion chamber of the engine through two different pipes, where they are mixed and ignited for combustion, producing high-temperature and high-pressure gas that is ejected from the bottom to generate thrust.

When Luo Wen saw this system and design drawings, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
