Chapter 624: Thieves in the Vault
At Ji Ming's suggestion, a vigorous puzzle-solving operation began.
The major laboratories under the command of Xingchen Technology all received a different amount of Crow alloy from Luo Jia, and then everyone used their brains and imagination to try to find out what secrets this alloy hid.
It is said that since the existence of the stars, Cloe alloy has always been a currency, has experienced countless changes in civilizations, the rise and fall of countless dynasties, everything in the stars is changing, the only constant thing is the value of Cloalloy, and looking at the trend, people's pursuit of Cloalloy will continue forever.
No one knows who or which civilization forged these ugly and strange alloys, but according to legend, Cloe contains the ultimate secret of the stars, and if enough Crow is raised, it will solve the mystery of the universe and possess the power and power of the gods of the universe.
Legend has it that it has been passed down for a long time, and the vast majority of the stars believe in it, and have a kind of religious devotion to Cloalloy, feeling that it is a gift from the gods to mortals.
But the straight men of steel in Xingchen Technology, they don't believe in God, and they are the most staunch atheists in the universe, so they don't believe in it at all, the so-called universe forging clowe alloy, in the eyes of the science and engineering men, if the god of the universe can only forge this kind of black iron bump, then he is really too low.
Since I don't believe that it is a gift from God, I have to find a way to crack it and figure out how the Crow alloy is made and what it is used for.
However, what the science and engineering men never expected was that this vigorous cracking operation ended in the complete failure of the major laboratories, even if they took out what they had learned in their lives and let go of the most unbridled imagination in this life, the black iron lump was still the black iron lump, which could not act as a superconductor, could not evolve antimatter, and could not be used to build space-time tunnels.
"Hey, at least you can use it to buy things." Luo Jia sat in the vault, looking at a large pile of black iron lumps, thinking silently, unwilling, but very helpless, and even the golden dome did not tell him what these broken iron lumps were for.
As the number of Chloe alloys sent by the Star Ring Trade increased, Luo Jia had to build a vault to store these useless but priceless pieces of iron.
Suddenly, Luo Jia blinked, squatted down with a puzzled expression, and pulled out a piece of Crow alloy from the bottom of the shelf, because the weight of Crow alloy is only 19% of black iron, so it is very light, even a child can easily pick up a lump.
When Luo Jia picked up this large piece of Crow alloy, he was surprised to find a row of small tooth marks, as if some small animal was stealing it.
"There are even small metal animals?" Luo Jia said suspiciously: "No matter how light this thing is, it is iron." ”
He continued to search, and sure enough, in several other places, he found more evidence of the crime.
The little animals that steal the alloy are very cunning, and they specialize in biting the alloy blocks located in the remote corners, and only bite a small bite on each alloy, so that if you don't look closely, it will be difficult to be detected, and it seems that he also understands the truth that you can't just pick up a sheep's wool.
"Evil Sect, who is stealing and eating Kloalloy?" Luo Jia pondered.
instructed the robot to guard the vault, and then, Luo Jia found Mi Jian from the Institute of Geology.
"When you first explored this planet, did you find any native creatures?" Luo Jia asked.
"Creatures? I didn't find it. Mi Jian was confused by the question.
He told Luo Jia that he had done several surveys and confirmed that there was a large amount of solid fresh water on the planet, but he did not find any living creatures and was clean, so he was selected as the main base of the Earth Fleet in the stars.
Luo Jia nodded slightly, the base planet has a harsh climate, and the temperature is often as low as more than 100 degrees below zero, are there really small animals living in this environment? And also sneaked into the base's vault and stole the clowe alloy?
It's amazing!
After a little consideration, Luo Jia decided to use the power of the mechanical legion to find out the small animals that had stolen the cloak alloy.
He gathered his helpers, made some arrangements in the vault, and began to wait patiently.
……
Two more days passed, and just as Luo Jia was about to forget the little animal in the vault, suddenly, the watch vibrated rapidly, showing the coordinates of the vault.
Luo Jia was stunned at first, then took his coat and ran to the vault, took his retinal glasses, and as the live video was projected onto Luo Jia's retina, he finally saw the scene in the vault.
Swish~
A white light panicked, climbed along the smooth alloy wall, and in a blink of an eye entered the only vent in the vault, because the clowe alloy is easy to oxidize, so a fully automatic anti-oxidation system is installed in the vault, and this system also provides convenience for the infiltration of small animals.
As the picture froze, Luo Jia finally saw the appearance of the alloy thief, which turned out to be a small white mouse.
He seemed to be underage, small in size, light in body, but extremely fast, biting Chloe and alloy with sharp little fangs, disappearing into the vent in a blink of an eye, using his soft and elastic body to squeeze through the gap in the vent protective plate.
Boom~
The Mechanical Legion was moved, they were not large robots like the wings of the stars, but miniature tactical robots, the claws of the stars.
Star Claw has eight knife-like claws, and it walks like a spider, and its claws can shrink, and the shrunken Star Claw is less than the size of a golf ball, and can pass through small gaps.
And once the claws are deployed, they can inflict enough lethal damage on the enemy, and the agility of the eight claws is like the delicate fingers of a human being, and it can perform the most delicate operations.
In short, the mechanical legion is actually not at all different from ordinary people's imagination, humanoid robots account for a part of it, and there are too many strange robots, all of which are Luo Jia's hidden hole cards, and they do not appear in the public eye.
Da Da Da ~ The sharp claws of the stars suddenly jumped up from all directions, waving their arms as sharp as knives, and their attitude was fierce, which really frightened the little mouse, only to see that he ran away from the other way, and his two little claws waved in the air from time to time, and his appearance was really cute.
"Keep chasing!"
"But don't hurt him, get me alive!"
Luo Jia was full of curiosity about the guinea pig, and his cute and funny appearance also made Luo Jia laugh, so she decided to catch him no matter what.
Luo Jia wore retinal glasses, and her perspective followed the sharp claws of the stars, flickering and moving all the way, shuttling around in the narrow ventilation ducts.
Speaking of God, after turning around, the guinea pig actually found a gap, jumped out of the Xingchen underground base, and entered a small ice cave, it seems that he should have dug it himself, in order to facilitate access to the base.
The Star Claws continued to chase and kill, and the robots swarmed, waving their claws, and they were almost scared to pee, and their golden eyes were full of shock.
A few minutes later, Luo Jia's eyes suddenly opened up, the tunnel dug by the mouse actually connected to another ice cave, and this ice cave is more than ten meters wide, obviously not for the guinea pig, after all, the size of the mouse is not enough to catch up with the child's fist.
Luo Jia was immediately stunned, and sighed in his heart: "A long time ago, the stars had an incomparably glorious era, and countless top civilizations developed splendid culture and technology, shining throughout the universe. ”
"This can't be a relic of some civilization, right!?"
Thinking of this, Luo Jia hurriedly issued an order to the Mechanical Legion, "Don't attack, let him go, you just need to be responsible for following!" ”
Star Claw, who received the order, immediately stopped attacking and changed to a follow-and-follow strategy, following behind the mouse like a swarm of reckless mechanical crabs.
And Luo Jia jumped up from the seat, ran to the equipment room, and changed into a mechanical exoskeleton.
