Taking the elevator to the shelter, Jiang Chen was about to go to bring the production samples of the nutritional mixture to Wang Fangping, and then went to observe the results of the Tiger Hunting II project team by the way, but happened to find that the two people he wanted to meet were standing at the door of the laboratory.

Looking at the way they looked, it seemed that they were arguing over something.

"Are you crazy about bringing X1 bacteria into the shelter!" Fang Weixian, the person in charge of the Tiger Hunter II project, roared angrily at Wang Fangping.

Type X1 bacteria are the bacteria that dominate zombies.

"I'm here for experiments, for science!And it's not like you haven't been vaccinated, you're afraid of a fart!" was sprayed with a spit on his face, and Wang Fangping burst into a foul mouth.

The two fought over the red face and thick neck. If it weren't for someone pulling on the side, the guards were watching from the side, and the two "Sven people" were afraid that they would fight each other with fists and kicks.

"And then, make a vaccine that can't kill the X3 or X4?" Fang Wei sneered.

"All experiments are within a safe framework, I just need a small piece of DNA encoding, you are completely distrustful and biased against life science!"

"Hehe, X1 bacteria were detected on the touchpad of the quantum computer in the laboratory, do you think this is within the framework of safety?" Fang Weixian said angrily.

Due to the limited scientific research equipment in the vault, there is only one laboratory-level quantum computer, which is indispensable for scientific research in the 22nd century, and many overly complex calculations and data models can only be done by it. Although the Fishbone Base has offered a bounty of 50,000 subcrystals for the experiment-grade quantum computer in the sixth block, it is a pity that no one has found this thing so far, so all 17 research teams in the vault are sharing this quantum computer.

"Oh my God. Which pen touched the keyboard without washing my hands, and I'll check it out when I go back, but you're-. Ah, boss. "I'm getting ready to reason with my colleagues. Wang Fangping found Jiang Chen, who was already standing next to the two, and hurriedly stopped talking.

Seeing Jiang Chen, the people gathered in the corridor immediately dispersed.

"What's going on?"

Wang Fangping hurriedly rushed ahead of Fang Weixian and explained to Jiang Chen, "Here's the thing. Because the project to generate seaweed was at a bottleneck, I commissioned the guards to go outside and collect a tube of tissue cells from the back of the zombie's neck, which is the X1 type bacteria. ”

"X1 bacteria, what does this have to do with power generation seaweed?" Jiang Chen asked with some surprise.

"Because the photosynthesis efficiency of type X1 bacteria is very high. In order to improve the solar energy conversion efficiency of the algae that generates electricity, my researchers proposed the possibility of placing X1 bacteria in the nucleus. The DNA about chloroplasts was implanted into the algae that was being developed to generate electricity. ”

"Heh, what if that seaweed exhibits traits similar to those of X1 bacteria?" Fang Weixian interjected with a sneer.

Damn, that's a big problem!

Fang Weixian's words startled Jiang Chen. At the beginning, he didn't think that Wang Fangping was wrong in doing this, and scientific research had to pursue results by unscrupulous means. But when he thought that this thing had to be brought to the present world to be cultivated, he was immediately afraid.

He didn't want to stage a Resident Evil in this world.

"It's impossible, you don't know about genetic technology at all. Wang Fangping was in a hurry, and his ears were red.

"But I understand the technical risks. Fang Wei first categorically rejected Wang Fangping's opinion.

"Alright, stop arguing. Jiang Chen impatiently interrupted the argument between the two.

The two immediately shut their mouths. But from the eyes of the two sides, it can be seen that they are obviously not convinced by anyone.

After a pause, Jiang Chen looked at Wang Fangping. "The extraction of DNA fragments from X1 bacteria stopped there, and as Fang Weixian said, research should be strictly limited within the framework of safety. All samples implanted with DNA from X1 bacteria were immediately destroyed. ”

"Yes. Wang Fangping said with a suffocated face.

Having the upper hand, Fang Wei raised the corners of his mouth proudly.

Patted him on the shoulder. Jiang Chen comforted in an encouraging tone, "It's good to be bold and innovative, but don't ignore the risks. That's right. This is a mass production sample of the improved version of the nutritional mixture, and you can take it to the laboratory to see if it is qualified. ”

Although the results of the study were rejected. There is inevitably some frustration in his heart, but Wang Fangping is not the kind of narrow-minded person. I took a deep breath and recovered from my frustration.

"Okay. ”

Taking the nutrient mixture from Jiang Chen's hand, Wang Fangping turned around and left.

Then Jiang Chen turned to Fang Weixian again.

"In the future, this kind of thing should be reported to the camp, don't solve it privately. He's not a rough man, what problem can a quarrel solve?"

"Yes. Fang Weixian said with some embarrassment.

This kind of internal contradiction can only be resolved by each beating a stick, and Jiang Chen can't think of any good way to coordinate the relationship between scientific researchers.

"Let's not talk about it, I heard that the design of Tiger Hunter II is complete, so I came to take a look. Can you show me the data model?"

"Of course, please follow me. Hearing Jiang Chen ask about the research project, Fang Weixian suddenly came to his senses and walked vigorously in the direction of the laboratory room.

Following Fang Weixian to the computer room, Jiang Chen saw the legendary quantum computer.

The computer was similar to the "game console" he had picked up from Vault 05, but the computing power was apparently a level higher than that of the supercomputer with mixed algorithms. The van-sized chassis has interfaces of various calibers densely spread on the surface of the shell.

Judging from the appearance alone, this quantum computer is unexpectedly simple, but from the careful appearance of Fang Wei when he first operated it on the touchpad, you can see how precious this thing is.

Soon, a faint blue light emerged from above the holographic device nearby, weaving into a miniature version of the Tiger Hunter II model.

Unlike the historical Tiger Hunter, this "Tiger Hunter II" has a turret design. It is 10.7 meters long and 4.1 meters wide, and the body is rectangular as a whole. The turret is located at the rear of the body, and the end of the barrel is level with the front armor of the body. It weighs 63 tons, and the armor material is A-shaped steel.

"The battlefield positioning of this Tiger Hunting II is still a tank destroyer, and it also serves as a support artillery, so the defense is mainly focused on the front armor and turret armor. In addition to a main gun, a 10mm heavy machine gun was welded to the top of the turret to attack approaching targets. Of course, just saying it can't reflect its actual combat effect, so I'll take you to see it. ”

After briefly introducing the parameters of Tiger Hunting II to Jiang Chen, Fang Wei first pressed a button on the touchpad.

The hologram shifts, and a desert appears at the bottom of the Tiger II. Seven pairs of load-bearing wheels beneath the steel armor begin to spin, and Tiger II begins to move at full speed through the desert. The landscape began to change, from desert to city and from city to jungle.

"This is a model made by simulating the physical environment in reality, and basically the combat performance of the tank is realistically restored on this holographic image. Next, I will show you the actual effect of Tiger Hunting II. ”

Looking at the surprised expression on Jiang Chen's face, Fang Wei proudly pressed a button on the touchpad first.

A large line of text appears on the hologram.

【Actual Combat Simulation】

The scenery changes again, and the Tiger Hunting II model reappears in the empty desert environment. At the same time, four soldiers carrying the 'Poison Python' anti-tank rocket launcher appeared in four different directions around it.

Four rockets were fired at the same time, striking the front, side, and rear armor and turret of the Tiger II. The flames exploded, but when the smoke cleared, only the rear armor of the Tiger II was somewhat damaged.

Jiang Chen had seen the power of this poisonous python rocket with his own eyes, the "Chieftain" main battle tank that was destroyed in the civil war, and the front armor was solidly blasted out of a big hole. Although he did not experience that war, he saw it from the launch of the rocket to the hit, in the cached footage of the drone.

"Whether it is facing individual anti-tank weapons or the main guns of other tanks, the Tiger Hunter II has a certain ability to protect itself. Of course, since it's not positioned as a main battle tank, I don't recommend pushing it to the front line to fight other tanks hand-to-hand. ”

Next, Fang Wei first demonstrated to Jiang Chen the survivability of the Tiger Hunter II under several other pre-war tanks, which was generally very good. Except for the "Prowler" tank's Type 52 particle cannon, most of the tank-level kinetic weapons can be carried down with front armor.

As for the power of the Type 50 electromagnetic cannon, since Jiang Chen had seen it many times, Fang Weixian didn't demonstrate it. Compared with the original "truck-mounted cannon" Tiger Hunter, the Tiger Hunter II has only improved its armor, and the main gun has not been changed in any way.

"How is it, are you still satisfied with this Tiger Hunting II?" In fact, Fang Weixian had already gotten the answer from Jiang Chen's face, but he still asked proudly.

Compared with Wang Fangping's sleekness, Fang Weixian is more extroverted in personality, and treats people as if he were a high-tech talent. Although he was somewhat restrained in the face of Jiang Chen, a dictator, he would still show it unconsciously occasionally.

However, Jiang Chen didn't care. For talents, as long as they are not excessive shortcomings, they are all tolerated for him.

"Haha, very satisfied. What about the cost of production?" Jiang Chen smiled with satisfaction.

"It's all on this table. Fang Wei first handed Jiang Chen a graphene card.

[101 tons of iron ore, 10 tons of aluminum ore, 2.1 tons of tungsten ore]

The first few are all okay, but the long list of rare earth minerals in the back gives Jiang Chen a little headache just looking at it. The problem of rare earth resources must be solved as soon as possible, and it is still too difficult to rely on resource recycling to fill the gap in industrial demand. (To be continued.) )
