My slow journey to infinity

"Eh? Isn't this Kazan's precious lunch box?"

It took Wang Shui some time to dig out the old big metal box from the hill of scrap parts, and then he turned on the full power and moved it aside.

How strange, Kazan always brings his small lunch box with him when he goes out?

Although this thing is very heavy, it is just a brick to Kazan. He usually throws it into the awakened person's space and uses it to eat and drink when necessary. Commonly used things shouldn't be hidden here, right?

Wait, hide?

Wang Shui suddenly had a bad smile on his face. He first checked the teeth marks and finger marks on the iron box, then went to the maintenance station to get a "plasma jet cutting gun" and cut the box - the thumb on the top in a few clicks. Thick metal rods cut it open.

There was no way, this box was made by Aqua Regia for Kazan before. The material was the main battle spacecraft keel alloy that someone got from him. Aqua Regia didn't do much processing. Just folding it into a box already cost him a fortune. After many months of off-duty work, that was the only time he had to study and improve himself, for which Kazan also spent his few savings.

Kazan jumped with joy after receiving the sturdy little lunch box. Neighbors thought there was an earthquake.

But now it seems that the edge-sealing solder has cracked, and it is probably no longer possible to drink water.

To deal with this piece of shit, ordinary flame cutting, plasma jets, etc. are completely useless. Rather than the box, Kazan took a metal rod and made a 'lock' that was the breakthrough point.

After cutting the lock, the process of opening the box was not simple. Aqua Regia's split power arm was missing, and he could only use the metal tentacles on the mechanical exoskeleton to pry open his masterpiece bit by bit.

Sure enough, after the lunch box flipped over with a bang without rebound, Wang Shui saw the treasure inside.

A genuine treasure.

[CZ90·Silver Dragon] is a third-level medium siege armor engine. The bright silver mirror even glows with hallucinatory fireflies. It is very beautiful. Of course, the engine in the box is not complete.

Wang Shui could recognize this thing at a glance just because it had a serial number on it. He checked it online and also found the parameters of the material and metal.

This alloy material has the same name as the engine. It is an alloy formula specially developed for making engines. The information published online is limited to describing its toughness and stability, corrosion resistance and impact resistance, as well as internal insulation against almost all energy and surface conductivity. However, it has excellent special properties. It can also withstand high temperatures of tens of millions of degrees, and can even withstand ablation of hundreds of millions of degrees in a short period of time. It is extremely strong.

It's so beautiful. Wang Shui saw the complete appearance of the engine in the picture. It is thick and has an indescribable fineness, full of industrial beauty.

It's a pity that the piece in front of him is only about one-third of the whole engine. The broken section is a complete cutting mark. This big guy was cut open by something with a sword. There are no other marks on the section, only a big tooth. After sealing the gap, Kazan bit off a piece as big as two fists of Shui Wang in one bite.

This idiot, I really don’t know how his stomach is long enough to be able to digest this thing.

In Aqua Regia's impression, Kazan is a hybrid of a metal-related race and a small giant. Eating various metals seems to be their racial trait. Metals can help them grow and develop. Kazan keeps saying that his mother told him that there is a metal Eating it can grow brains, so he will try any metal.

Wang Shui felt that this was Kazan's fucking lie to deceive him into not being picky eaters, but he didn't say anything.

Tsk, one piece is missing, and the rest is not too much. Wang Shui snapped his fingers and confiscated it. The child actually learned to hide things. Now your brother Shui wants to borrow your snacks to make some self-defense props.

If nothing else goes wrong, this metal should not be lost. At worst, it will be returned to Kazan then.

Even if Wang Shui had a dark heart and took these metals, it was just a matter of coaxing the big guys. At most, he would let Brother Hei eat it. Kazan absolutely admired Brother Hei. He would definitely not care about such a small thing. After all, Wang This is not the first time that water has tricked children into giving snacks.

It is not particularly difficult to carry [Silver Dragon Alloy]. The next question for Aqua Regia is how to process this thing.

Heat treatment will definitely not work. This thing obviously requires alchemy, but aqua regia is definitely not possible now.

It is very easy to shape ordinary metals. After alchemy controls the energy to soak them, they can be kneaded at will.

But it is also alchemy, especially the alloy created by high-level alchemy. Its internal structure and properties are extremely complex, and the formula of the alloy is also very troublesome. From the perspective of alchemy, its interior is like a maze. With Wang Shui's current technology, he couldn't even find the entrance to the maze.

Speaking of cracking the metal formula and alchemy technology, it is also a big industry chain.

Wang Shui thought of this when he saw this piece of alloy. He was willing to put in the effort to move it, so he naturally had an idea. Alchemy techniques for cracking alloy technology are rarely seen on the Internet, but in the notebook he bought for 10 silver coins There happens to be a record in it.

It should be impossible to completely crack it, but Wang Shui just wants to find the technology to change the form. The plan couldn't keep up with the change, and things went back to learning alchemy.

The more urgent you are and the more you try to hurry up and get things done, the faster it slips away.

One and a half days passed in a blink of an eye. On the morning of the fourth day, Wang Shui rushed back to the broken repair shop from outside and threw his rain-covered gray and white shawl and cloak on the pile of scrap metal.

During the two days of research, Wang Shui finished reading more than a hundred alchemy introductory books. He is very efficient, mainly because he skipped the content that was not needed for the time being and devoted himself to studying the knowledge related to "Metal Alchemy". Yesterday, he could barely understand the ideas in that notebook, instead of just reading Understand the title.

This is also due to Old Moran. Wang Shui went to ask Old Moran for advice and bought some alchemy equipment from him at a low price. It sounds a bit weird, but the world of social fear is like this. It is good to have strong social skills. mix.

I just went out to buy some things. Now I have almost all the knowledge and tools. Aoi is about to start his performance.

In the small courtyard, Wang Shui placed [Silver Dragon Alloy] on a large wooden table covered with steel, put on [Hand of Hermitage] to see through it, carefully inspected the metal structure inside, and wrote notes at the same time.

Wang Shui and Lao Moran designed an unpacking tool to analyze the surface alchemy technology based on the ideas in the notes and the principle of [Reflective Array]. However, in order to complete the mapping, the unique internal conditions of this alloy must be fully analyzed.

Yes, it is unique. The alchemy they designed can only be analyzed for one target at a time. If you change it to another piece of [Silver Dragon Alloy], you have to redesign it. The targeted design greatly reduces the complexity of the alchemy.

Cracking technology is not difficult. Wang Shui remembered that he had learned to crack stand-alone games a long time ago. With the help of memory search tools, things were not as complicated as imagined.

Through the perspective effect of [Hand of Hidden Cultivation], Wang Shui spent more than an hour to complete the physical analysis. Various parameters were piled in the electronic document and he dragged it out to a long screen.

Then, Wang Shui opened Alchemy's virtual drawing software and began to design the [Reflective Array]. Speaking of which, the last time he used alchemy, he still used the most basic "00" array, which was a circle and an inscribed hexagram. This time he used a reflective array, numbered "C-01", and the complexity soared.

After the design was completed, the method of drawing the array was also different. This time the amount of data was huge, and it was not possible to rely solely on steel plates and energy.

Wang Shui took out a thick plastic box filled with white paper cards. There was also a metal-cased pen pinned to the outside of the box.

The next step is to work patiently. Wang Shui copied the alchemy array he just designed from the virtual drawing software. The metal soft-tip pen left blue text and patterns on the special card.

Wang Shui's copying speed was very slow, and he didn't want to waste these 2 yuan cards.

When I finished copying 108 cards, it was getting late, but it was raining outside and the lights were always on in the courtyard.

Wang Shui first checked the whole thing to make sure there were no errors or omissions, and then immediately made himself a cup of tea and took a rest to calm down. Moreover, this mixed herbal tea can improve the "perception" and "psychic" attributes of the awakened person by one point each within six hours after drinking it, and increase the energy recovery speed.

After confirming that the medicinal tea was effective, Aqua Regia activated the array on the top of the stack of cards, then grabbed the card deck and threw it into the air. The cards connected by the energy spread out one after another, and with Aqua Regia as the center, a continuous array was constructed. The moving 'satellite network', energy flows continuously in the deck.

Wang Shui held the pen in his hand and used it as a spell-casting medium to communicate with the array. After running it twice without any problems, Wang Shui pressed his left hand on the [Silver Dragon Alloy].

The energy in the array enveloped the alloy, and the complex structure and metallic property reflection pattern was instantly instilled into Wang Shui's brain. The cards floating in the air first buffered the data to protect the interactive array, and [Array·Computing Terminal] ], that is to say, Aqua Regia's biological brain has begun to preprocess the data, and the specific alchemical structure has begun to be constructed in the air in the form of blue energy lines.

Wang Shui observed and calculated the exposed structure, and then quickly derived the formula based on the knowledge in his notes and Old Moran's guidance. He controlled the pen with his right hand to write on the blank card at hand, and he was still making calculations in his mind.

Stopping writing, the cards on the table filled with words and symbols were quickly connected to the array, changing the nature of the entire array without flying into the air.

The new energy structure extended along Aqua Regia's left hand into [Silver Dragon Alloy]. Aqua Regia quickly sensed the traces of alchemy scattered in the material, and the energy structure he newly converted was very similar to these traces. , this is the role of reflection.

After wandering for a long time, the energy of aqua regia began to bottom out, and the recovery speed could not keep up. The useless cards in the deck that were hovering in the air began to burn themselves. Each card that turned to ashes added 10 seconds to the array's running time.

The second one, the third one... Wang Shui was not distracted too much. The card's burning endurance was written in the design of the array. He had to concentrate on docking.

Suddenly, Wang Shui felt relaxed, and his hands also relaxed. His left hand sank directly into [Silver Dragon Alloy]!

Done! Aqua regia quickly took out his hand, extended his spirit to the alloy, and then divided it into equal parts.

After a short calculation, the alloy was divided into thirty equal parts and transformed into a 30 cm long straight-edged flying knife. The shape of the flying knife is similar to a straight dagger. The length can be said to be that of a dagger. The widest part is three centimeters and the thickest part is one centimeter. The shape is uniform and the appearance is as smooth as a mirror.

Wang Shui exhaled sharply and fell backwards, falling on the chair he had prepared in advance. His chaotic thinking slowly recovered, and every breath of cool wind mixed with the smell of rain made him more comfortable.

After regaining some control over his body, Wang Shui hurried to the table, picked up a throwing knife, or short sword, and examined it carefully.

Sorry, it seems a bit too long...
