I Am the Swarm

Compared with the radiation in space, the radiation that Rowan fought in the laboratory was simply childish. According to estimates from the data, unless he thickened the cuticle to more than three meters, it would be possible for him to withstand the radiation.

As for the three-meter cuticle shell, his body size will be at least 20 meters away, otherwise he will not be able to carry this suit of armor at all, and the weight is estimated to exceed 100 tons.

With the Ratman's technological level, even in another 100 years, it is estimated that it will be enough to send him to the moon.

Therefore, the hard resistance plan in the early stage is no longer feasible.

The paper that Rowan saw was about the conjecture of planetary magnetic fields on space radiation protection. From the fact that life can survive normally on the planet, the author speculates that the planet itself has a huge protective stance to defend or deflect these hazards from space radiation.

At the end of the paper, he also mentioned that he hopes to study this position to imitate a small magnetic field device that can be installed on rockets or personal protective clothing to combat space radiation.

Through the swarm network, Luo Wen quickly discovered that the author of the paper was actually in the private laboratory of another starry sky enterprise.

Therefore, the rat man was suddenly entrusted with an important task without knowing the reason. Not only was he promoted to be the person in charge of a new laboratory, but he also asked for money and someone to give. There was only one requirement, to complete the magnetic field device in his mind as soon as possible.

In Rowan's gene pool, there are now a large number of genes, and many creatures have some unique understanding of magnetic fields, but they are not systematic. Even his anti-gravity elytra is a way of applying a magnetic field. Therefore, Rowan needs a comprehensive theory to integrate them.

From the perspective of feasibility, the feasibility of deriving a magnetic field organ is much higher than hard resistance to space radiation.

Time passed, and several years passed in a blink of an eye. The ratmen's aerospace industry developed rapidly, and the rocket's propulsion system was continuously improved, and they were getting closer and closer to the moon.

The year before last, they actually sent a four-clawed beast into space, but unfortunately their rocket has not yet developed a return device. After the four-clawed beast contributed a lot of data, it remained in orbit forever.

Last year, a rat man was sent to low earth orbit and successfully returned. Although the rat man suffered from a large number of symptoms after returning, he survived anyway.

Rowan had a headache. He carefully studied the rat man's equipment for going to outer space. But many of them have no value for reference yet.

For example, the Skaven's protective suit is divided into layers, one of which is a vacuum layer to deal with the extreme temperatures in space. Rowan had no idea how to grow a vacuum layer inside his body.

However, there is also some good news, that is, the anti-radiation technology on the Ratman protective clothing comes from a private laboratory under the Star Enterprise.

The Ratman named Karen lived up to his expectations and successfully developed a small magnetic field protection device. And with the continuous help of a large amount of manpower and material resources, relevant technologies have been rapidly improved and made breakthroughs. In the end, it was even reduced to a metal particle fiber material.

The outermost layer of the Skaven's space suit is composed of this material. It can form a closed loop and generate an induced current, which will generate a reverse electromagnetic field to prevent radiation from penetrating.

Of course, it is impossible for Luo Wen to apply this kind of material on himself. He needs to use his talent to cultivate a related organ or ability based on relevant theories.

After a period of research and improvement, he is close to success.

First of all, he used the gene of a kind of discharge fish, which has a specialized muscle tissue in its body, which is the discharge body. At the same time, there are many storage cells in its body, which are like small laminated batteries.

When the nerve part that acts as the discharge hub emits a signal, the discharge body starts to discharge, and the current is connected in series through the storage cells to generate a high voltage.

These special configurations can power small magnetic field devices.

As for the material for constructing the magnetic field device, Rowan chose the gene of a metal snail. They are located in the area around 3000 meters under the sea. Only live near submarine fountains and craters.

Rowan discovered this metal snail during a walk in the deep sea. Although their taste is not very delicious, Rowan still collected their genes.

The gastropods of these metal snails are covered with metal scales and have a metal shell, which is very sci-fi, and their shells are naturally magnetic.

Rowan took advantage of this feature to integrate metal particles into the shell, arrange and combine them, and assembled a biological version of the magnetic field generator, and used the discharge body to provide energy, and successfully arranged a small magnetic field on the surface of the body.

This small magnetic field not only successfully resisted radiation penetration, but also gave Rowan a surprise. Due to the locked magnetic field, it is difficult for the heat in his body to dissipate, which is equivalent to stabilizing the temperature around him.

The problem of low temperature in outer space, which had troubled Rowan for a long time, was solved without any precautions. Rowan didn't know what specifically caused this result, and could only classify it as a mutation that occurred during evolution.

But this device also has a disadvantage, that is, it must ingest a sufficient amount of minerals to generate them. If you want to popularize in the swarm, you must add relevant ingredients to the queen's recipe.

Perhaps the creep can also be improved to incorporate metal snail genes. Because it already has the ability to decompose rocks and minerals, maybe this gene will be very suitable for it, allowing the creep to obtain the ability to extract minerals.

The problems of anaerobic, low temperature, and space radiation have been solved one by one, and Rowan has taken a big step forward in going to space. All that's left is to solve the problem of energy acquisition, and he will evolve into a space creature, and the swarm will follow.

Another year passed, and the Ratman's rocket propulsion engine research hit a bottleneck, so he could only go back to the old path. That is to increase the number of thrusters, from the initial 1+4 to 1+6 and then to 1+8, and the flight altitude is getting closer and closer to the moon.

This year, Luo Wen also read many research papers. At the same time, he discovered a new use of the swarm network. He can intercept a certain memory of the ratman intelligence and clone it. It feels like a book is stuffed into his head, and he needs to choose useful ones from it. Although it still takes a lot of time, it is much faster than reading it by himself.

The downside is that this kind of interception can only be the entire memory of a certain period of time, and it would be better if it is devoted to research. For some Ratmen with rich emotional experience, the scene was simply unsightly.

So much so that Rowan spent a lot of effort to completely annihilate that cloned memory, and secretly warned himself that such things should be done less in the future.

However, after a year of study, he already had some ideas on how to absorb energy in space.
