Mecha and Knife

"You know, I can't possibly ask you to name me."

Aidakang rejected Ji Xinghe's hesitant kindness, which made Li Yuanba heave a sigh of relief.

But when people were disappointed by this, the topic changed.

"But I think there is a very interesting sentence in your dragon language. Eggs should not be put in the same basket."

The value of the egg itself is really not worth mentioning in this era, but the egg represents endless hope.

The egg hatches the chicken, and the chicken lays an egg.

It's a very simple truth, and people will naturally understand it.

"I'm willing to try." Aida Kang said without people's analysis or guesswork: "In this point, I am different from my second brother. Of course, you can also understand that I don't want to die, and I am willing to use all methods Go for opportunities, both now and in the future."

Ji Xinghe looked at Ai Dakang calmly, and asked softly: "Empty talk?"

Aidakang frowned and thought about the meaning of this idiom. Although it has been learning Dragon Language for more than ten years, and the power of Qi has brought it extraordinary memory, it is not an idiomatic language after all, and it is not used much at ordinary times. Chance.

But it still figured it out.

In its view, if Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba want to rescue Li Zhengfan, they must use it in exchange.

Li Zhengfan's value to the federation can vary. To put it bluntly, every one of the imperial orangutans captured and killed by the federation is counted as one, including the former crown prince and his half-brother. high.

To put it mildly, Li Zhengfan is far inferior to its value, so...

Aidakang understood what Ji Xinghe meant, so he decided to cooperate with Ji Xinghe in the performance. It said softly and confidently: "The formula of tungsten steel alloy."

In fact, it should have used interrogative sentences, but the use of affirmative sentences shows that this is the biggest cost it is willing to cooperate with Ji Xinghe's performance.

Everyone except Li Yuanba may be reluctant to exchange me for Li Zhengfan, but after I added this bargaining chip, it was enough.

When Aidakang thought about it, Ji Xinghe agreed as expected.

"Okay, tell me the formula, and I will let you go back to the empire."

ah?

People were shocked again, although the formula of tungsten steel alloy is of great value to the Federation, far exceeding the benefits that can be brought by killing an Adakon. But is this kind of thing really a decision that Ji Xinghe can make alone?

Even if you are Ji Xinghe, even if Ada Kang is your prisoner, even if Li Yuanba is standing firmly behind you now, and the 'try' that Ada Kang said, there must be a meeting to discuss it, right?

Moreover, don't you really try to get the formula of tungsten steel gold from Aida Kang?

People had a lot of doubts, but no one interrupted the conversation.

"I'll let you know when I get back."

In order to protect himself, Aida Kang still has to reserve some means.

But Ji Xinghe disagreed.

"I said it, tell me the formula, and I will let you go back to the empire."

One person, one chimpanzee, one standing and one sitting, just staring at each other in the cage.

After a long time, Aida Kang softened and seemed to believe it again.

"Should I just say it now?"

Ji Xinghe didn't wave his hand, and the relevant personnel already understood that those who can hear it will naturally stay in the communication channel, and those who shouldn't hear it, even if they may not remember the inevitably complicated formula, can't listen.

As a result, the communication channel was directly shut down, several officers entered the cell, and the guards were temporarily arranged to leave.

But no one told Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba to leave, no one searched them, or blocked the communication devices they were carrying.

Their authority is enough to know the information obtained because of them.

Everything was ready, Aida Kang said.

Its memory is really good, and it has a certain level of understanding of the Federation's material technology. It doesn't need the help of a translator at all, and speaks out the relevant materials and technologies in a language that the Federation can fully understand.

Without verification, people have already determined that humans have finally mastered the unique tungsten steel alloy of the empire.

Whether it is the Duke armor made of tungsten steel alloy, or the general armor, prince armor, and emperor armor made of tungsten steel alloy, it seems that they can be mass-produced.

After all, after mastering the formula of tungsten steel alloy, it is much closer to researching the formula of tungsten steel alloy.

But all who can hear know very well that mass manufacturing exists only in fantasy.

Even an empire with many ore stars cannot mass-produce mechas and weapons of this level, let alone the Federation?

Emperor Wudi III only had three hundred duke armors made of tungsten-steel alloy, and the manufacturing cost of tungsten-steel alloy was predictably high.

Perhaps, Emperor Wudi III had more than that.

When Ji Xinghe heard the formula, it meant that Xingyue also heard the formula. When the Federation was still recording and analyzing and preparing related experiments, Xingyue had already started the experiment.

The original Federal Base No. 3 is now in Xianyang City.

Extraterrestrial meteorites, which are not rare on alien planets, exist in this base itself. At this time, they have been transported to the laboratory by engineering robots, and then the necessary substances for making tungsten steel alloys have been extracted from them.

This is actually not difficult for Xingyue and the Federation. Regarding the use of the extraterrestrial iron in the extraterrestrial meteorite, it has existed in the human world since ancient times. The various high-strength alloys currently used by the Federation have been applied to the extraterrestrial meteorite. Ore is rare.

The complex cosmic radiation has produced some special substances in these meteorites, or the original normal substances have undergone specific changes under the influence of cosmic radiation.

Although the Federation is still far from mastering the technology of this kind of cosmic radiation, it is a bit boastful to say that it does not know why, but in theory, it is completely possible to manufacture extraterrestrial meteorites in unlimited quantities.

Because there are really countless meteorites in the universe.

But before you really understand the key, you need a certain amount of luck and a lot of time to artificially create a specific extraterrestrial meteorite.

Putting a random stone in the vacuum of the universe for a few days, and then throwing it on the surface of the planet will not directly obtain the extraterrestrial meteorites that human beings need.

Whether there is a corresponding change is one reason. In the process of falling to the surface of the planet, whether it will be destroyed and only worthless fly ash is left is also a key reason.

"What an interesting molecular structure."

Xingyue looked at the tungsten steel alloy in the manufacturing process, and the camera as the eye had a kind of light called wisdom flickering.

In the last century, the Commonwealth has proposed and started to study nanotechnology, and the ultimate direction of nanotechnology can be summed up in one sentence: any combination of all kinds of molecules can create any kind of molecular structure.

Matter is composed of molecules, just like human beings are composed of cells. Although there are atoms under the molecules, the nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons. But as long as they have the ability to control molecules, there will be no difference between human beings and the legendary gods.

It's a pity that more than a century has passed, and the processing precision of the federation's nanotechnology still stays at the unit of nanometer.

1 nanometer is 10 to the negative 9th power meter, and the order of magnitude of the general molecular diameter is 10 to the negative 10th power meter.

It sounds like the gap is not that big, but in fact the gap is bigger than the difference between Qin Wangzhan's current manual processing accuracy and Ji Xinghe's current manual processing accuracy.

Moreover, just reaching the molecular-level processing precision does not mean that humans can claim to control the molecules. Wanting to shape molecules according to the structure imagined by human beings is another research direction as broad as the sea of ​​stars.

Just like now, under the relevant substances and ratios, a specific molecular structure was naturally born, and then tungsten steel alloy was produced.

Xingyue also couldn't understand the principle, and it was even more impossible to forcibly change the molecular structure of it directly with other substances, so as to make tungsten steel alloy like turning stone into gold.

But it doesn't matter, regarding the tungsten steel alloy and the extraterrestrial meteorites that tungsten steel alloy must need, it is quite difficult for the Federation to obtain it, and it is also not easy for the Empire.

But because of Xingyue's special life form, she was born with a great advantage in this regard.

"Xianyang, in addition to repairing the city, your current task has two more tasks. First, to manufacture tungsten steel alloy as much as possible. Second, through the formula of tungsten steel alloy, research the formula of tungsten steel alloy. "

Xianyang still replied mechanically: "I need more powerful computing power support."

"Don't worry, there will be bread and milk. Don't worry, we have plenty of time."

Xingyue thought of the so-called advanced alien civilization, and when she said this to Xianyang, she was also talking to herself.

After arranging the work tasks in Xianyang, Xingyue arrived on a small spaceship in a blink of an eye.

This spaceship looks very simple, even the basic human life support system does not exist, it looks like a car frame with only the engine and wheels left.

It is impossible for humans and orangutans to travel between the stars in this spaceship, but for Xingyue, it and its subordinates do not need the so-called life support system at all.

Oxygen supply? Thermostat? Food and water?

Everything is a burden, everything has been abandoned.

In addition to the energy devices and the necessary engines of the spacecraft, the most inside this spacecraft are various mechanical arms.

"Chang'an, wake up."

Changan, an artificial intelligence system similar to Nuwa, was activated because of this. It is actually Nuwa's copy program. After Xingyue's transformation, it was originally intended to be used in the second city of the Galaxy Empire.

But now that the Galaxy Empire is nowhere in sight, and there are more important tasks, Xingyue will naturally change her plan.

"What is the general's order?"

Just after being activated, such a question was asked, of course not because Chang'an had awakened, but because Xingyue was asking and answering again.

She wants to be a general now.

"The lord has an order. You immediately set off to Zhenxing and capture the specific ore we need on the Zhenxing ring."

"yes."

Chang'an agreed without any hesitation, because it has no self-awareness. Then, based on the relevant information stored in the intelligent core of the spacecraft, he found the direction of Zhenxing at this time.

Zhenxing, like Yixing, is a planet in the star system born by the Federation, but unlike Yixing, Zhenxing is a gaseous planet, and there is no land that is normally recognized.

Moreover, the distance between the town star and the blue star is too far, the average distance is about 1.5 billion kilometers, and it will take about four and a half years to cross it with the fastest spaceship of the Federation.

Therefore, for the Federation, the value of Zhenxing is extremely small.

But from today onwards, the value of Zhenxing will become much larger, because Zhenxing has a special celestial structure, which is generally called a planetary ring, and what surrounds Zhenxing is naturally called Zhenxing ring.

It is composed of countless crushed stones wrapped in ice, the small ones are only a few microns in diameter, and the large ones are tens of meters in diameter.

They are all extraterrestrial meteorites. (Note 1)

It is very likely that it contains many special substances for making tungsten steel alloy and tungsten steel gold. Xingyue will naturally not let it go, and is going to act first.

Although she only has Chang'an, a somewhat stupid artificial intelligence program, and a small spaceship that can be described as shabby, as long as she starts to act, there will be a steady stream.

The resources that the Council of Heroes Spirits possess now are completely different from when they were just created.

Chang'an is just a vanguard.

"Go."

After Xingyue controlled the spaceship in Chang'an and began to accelerate, it disappeared again and returned to the alien star.

According to the speed of this spacecraft, it will take about two years to reach Zhenxing, which is much faster than the most advanced spacecraft of the Federation.

Because it discards a lot of burden.

In the same way, for this type of spacecraft made by Xingyue, the time from the blue star to the alien star is not the normal two-month voyage, but only takes one and a half months.

There are some problems with time, mainly to avoid the possibility of being discovered by federal officials.

During the time when Xingyue made tungsten steel alloy and ordered Chang'an to go to Zhenxing, Ji Xinghe's interrogation of Aidakang was over.

Some of the follow-up questions and answers are very routine and not worth mentioning.

The real key lies in the several meetings that will inevitably be held after the interrogation is over. During the interrogation, the relevant personnel have already prepared for the first meeting.

For high-level military meetings, the threshold for participation can be said to be general rank, but not all generals are eligible to participate.

So it can be called a meeting of generals with real power.

Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba took part in this meeting as a matter of course.

As a serious federal general, Tu Yuan also has the authority to participate. Tang Qiao and Davis, as the generals in charge of the Battle Scar Canyon theater, are also among the high ranks. Needless to say, Yang Antai.

There are many people, but there is no chatter.

In the quiet conference channel, Ivanovic said unexpectedly: "General Ji, please tell me your thoughts first."

"I've already said, let it go."

Ivanovic frowned, and said euphemistically: "But it must still have a lot of information that is crucial to us, such as the precise coordinates of the jump base on the Mountain of the Gods. The exact coordinates of the battle scar canyon jump base in ".

Ji Xinghe's calm voice sounded again when Ivanovic's words fell.

He said.

"For example, how do those people in the federation who trade with it and the empire get in touch with it?"

The conference channel fell into absolute silence.

Before the interrogation started, everyone thought that this was the question Ji Xinghe should ask the most. This is also one of the reasons why Nantianmen wanted to snatch Aida Kang, but it was stopped by the tough Li Yuanba.

But Ji Xinghe didn't ask just now.

he asked now.
