Chapter 50: Troubled

The chips and storage devices on the welfare officer are completely different from those on Leif and Glyard.

Let's take memory storage devices as an example.

Lef's storage device uses disks. It works by using the arrangement of magnetic chips to store information. The disk taken out of Leff's brain, although the magnetic chip is a certain distance from the "theoretical limit", it also exceeds the "industrial standard" in Xiangshan's memory.

But according to the principle of "the smaller the chip, the more vulnerable it is to interference", the disk is incredibly fragile. It completely relies on the shock-absorbing structure to resist interference, and Xiangshan also detects a special "error correction algorithm" to correct the "possible error" information in the disk.

The welfare officer uses a hard disk that uses semiconductors to store electronic information to record information. It is closer to Xiangshan's memory. Semiconductor SSDs do not easily lose information due to external forces, and they can read and write faster. The only problem is that there is a limit to the number of times it can be written.

"If you have to say it, due to the convolution of martial arts experience, the memory of the martial artist does need to be written and erased in real time. However, this is not a reason to choose magnetic chips - after all, magnetic chips have not broken through the subatomic scale. "Xiang Shan pondered;" At first, I thought it was because the technology was lost. But from the side of these patrons, it doesn't seem to be the case. ”

"Even if the disk has an advantage in the number of writes, it makes sense to stuff an SSD into the body, right?"

"Or is the Wilderness Thug so lacking in resources that he can't fit an SSD into his body......"

"Not really. This era is not yet short of semiconductors. Silica alone accounts for 12% of the earth's crust content, and since there is internal power, the production method of basic hardware such as disks should also be able to be passed on with chivalry. ”

- No, before that, there is one more question......

"Someone should use quantum optical memory......

Although the production process of the mob's disks and the Protector's semiconductor hard disks slightly exceeded the "industrial standards" in Xiangshan's memory, they were still "backward technology" - even in Xiangshan's time.

Xiang Shan remembers that in his own time, quantum optical memory could already be put into production, and if it were not for the war, it should have been popularized. Regardless of the cost, the laboratory conditions can be used to produce large capacities beyond imagination.

At least when his memories weren't taken away, he had more than one quantum memory to store martial arts.

If the thugs can only use disks because of their limited conditions, then the nobles of the so-called "patrons of civilization" should not lack resources.

It's weird.

Xiang Shan thought for a moment, but did not come to a conclusion. In the end, he had to comfort himself that there was still too little information to make a correct judgment about the world.

Will know later.

After putting this aside for the time being, Xiang Shan tried to learn some programming ideas in the welfare officer's chip.

Speaking of which, this is a little weird again.

Will Grande Doug and the welfare officer should both be on the same camp. But Mr. Will's software is the kind of backward and imbecile thing that can infuriate programmers - even late-twentieth century programmers would find it very inadequate. And the welfare officer is obviously much smarter, at least the ideas and methods are Xiang Shan has no impression.

Xiang Shan comprehended the code in this way. After hours, he finally heard a "buzzing" sound like a gnat.

That's the sound of a drone.

Xiang Shan breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiang Shan poked his head out of the "tent". The "interior" where he and Yuki are now is actually a space made of black felt cloth and garbage, simply protected from wind and sand. The black cloth was still a huge tapestry he had torn from the interior of the ground-effect aircraft.

I don't know if it's handmade. This thought flashed through Xiang Shan, who did not come.

However, in this era, no one should boast that "manual work is better than machinery" - because there is essentially no difference between the two.

Dozens of drones are suspended outside the tent. They are continuing to move towards the west. Four of them were strapped to parts that Glyard had taken from his body, as well as his fingers to the mountain.

Xiang Shan gave an order with his prosthetic eye to stop the drone.

The drone landed on the ground, revealing the black solar panels behind it.

Xiang Shan took off his courier.

The wireless transmitter he had taken from Glyard was probably the best of all the parts of his kind. The transmitter on Mr. Welfare Officer's body is much less powerful than this.

This is perhaps the superlative part of Glyard's body......

- No, it's not true.

Xiang Shan shook his head.

If you're going to say that all the equipment on Glyard is backward, that's.

The tentacles that are directly connected to the brain, have a cephalopod ganglion system, and the electronic devices that are entangled with thick nerves are definitely the latest technologies to be born.

This is even more bizarre. The memory used by Glyard is a "relatively backward" thing in Xiang Shan's memory, while his signal transmitter is very good. Biochemical transformation that can be directly connected to the brain is a cutting-edge technology that has no impression even to the mountains.

The technology of different eras is concentrated in one person in this way.

"It's a weird time." Xiang Shan sighed like this.

Now it remains to wait for the "donkey" to arrive.

Xiang Shan thought as he unfastened the outer armor of his abdomen. This outer armor has survived the battle with Glyard and is now quite miserable. Xiang Shan took out an electromagnetic driver and put the ethanol tank as well as the engine from the abdomen next.

In the battle with Glyard, fuel ethanol was also close to running out. After leaving the village, there was no ethanol fuel to replenish, and it was a burden to keep it in the body. Xiang Shan took the engine off and tried to fit the wireless transmitter inside.

Honestly, it's not easy. Normally, a signal transmitter and a power component would not be placed in the same unknown. If conditions permit, Xiang Shan wants to re-lay out his prosthesis.

But the problem is that he now has no self-help equipment, and his only assistant is still unconscious.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Xiang Shan seems to have anticipated the "temporary replacement of parts after the battle", so he left enough extra wiring and interfaces in his body in advance.

A few hours later, the thing was finally connected to Xiang Shan's body.

"It's good, it's good, in this way, there is finally more room for internal strength." Xiang Shan said.

He then proceeded to comprehend the code of Glyard's martial arts.

In the meantime, Yuki woke up again, but still wept silently, and then fell into a coma again.

A few hours later, Xiang Shan picked Yuki's eyelids.

"It's not the way to go. At least find a way to replenish some water and nutrients, otherwise you will die quickly. ”

Xiang Shan couldn't help but look outside. The "donkey" still hasn't arrived.

As a result, this heroic man had to admit a fact - the pathfinding program he wrote improvised was really not very good.

There is a high probability that the "donkey" has deviated from the preset path.

"Well, it's my fault that I didn't program the electronic sextant." Xiang Shan sighed: "But my astronomical level is really average, right?" I didn't expect that one day I would have to rely on a sextant to find my way, and it was my fault that I didn't memorize the star map, but I wasn't necessarily fully responsible. ”

At least in the era he was familiar with, hacking into a few satellites to safely use the satellite positioning system was still a feasible tactic for knights.

But Xiangshan had to find the "donkey".

If nothing else, if he doesn't get back the spare battery on the "donkey", then he will have to keep a wired connection to Yuki all the time. In this case, it will be fatal to meet any master.

The water and nutrients that gave Yuki his life were over there, too.

Of course, it's okay to keep waiting. After all, it is also possible that the "donkey" has only made a long detour, and it may take some time to arrive.

But Xiang Shan didn't dare to bet.

Both he and Yuki now rely on the same battery for life. The battery, which had belonged to Paulus, also helped him kill Glyard and overturn the welfare officer's battle.

Even if Paulus's prosthetic body is more energy-intensive than the one Xiang Shan is using now, this battery won't last long.

As for the solar panels on those drones...... At most, it can recharge these light UAVs for reconnaissance and extend the flight of a mission. They are also not able to feed the prosthetic body of the mountain.

And the sun is about to set.

"No, you have to go......"

Xiang Shan thought so.

If they hesitate any longer, the battery will continue to drain, and those two people will have no chance to get out of the wilderness.

But it's not just a casual walk.

Xiang Shan first dismembered a drone, connected part of the circuit to the ethanol tank and the accelerant tank, and put the circuit together with the induction device. This makes a simple landmine. Subsequently, he buried the drone's main power supply and signal transmission and reception in another place, covering it with a thin layer of soil.

The rest of the solar panels are attached to themselves. It can be added that it is a little.

"The solar panels in the town are shared, and they don't feel precious. In this wilderness, one kilowatt-hour of electricity can kill people......"

After doing this, the man used the wire that Glyard had ripped from his body to tie Yuki to his back. Then he divided the welfare officer's tapestry in two, one covering the improvised "thunder" and the other half rolling in the sand, staining it and wrapping it around himself.

This is done to make sure if there are any pursuers behind you, so that you can give yourself a little reminder.

"According to the map, the area where the 'donkey' is likely to pass through...... It's such an oval area. Walk back a thousand meters, then turn back 135°, and walk a fan-shaped area......" Xiang Shan muttered to himself: "In about five hours, you will have a greater certainty of completing the search." If you're lucky, you might find it in the next second. Well, life should always have something to look forward to. ”

That's what the man said to himself.
