Nothing else, canvassing, the officials remember to vote, thank you)

After sending Song Yizhou away, Luo Linglou didn't go up, so he began to directly tinker with the utensils. The tool making table is composed of five parts: metallurgical furnace, mold room, processing cabin, filler and console, which can be disassembled and merged for easy handling. The power of the generator can be obtained from the power grid sent from the Anshun Street base, and can also be obtained through various types of magic energy nuclear power engines. Luo Ling has a miniature magic energy nuclear power engine at home, but on the second floor, as a backup generator for the failure of the base's power transmission, Luo Ling lazily went up to get it, anyway, the electricity of the base is not expensive, and the power electricity is a trace of silver, which is equivalent to 1 yuan in the past, which is definitely cheap.

The relevant knowledge of weapons soldiers has broadened Luo Ling's horizons a lot, and at the same time, he also has a more comprehensive, systematic and complete understanding of weapons. I have to admit that compared to the method of making tools he explored by himself, what he learned later was not a little bit clever. However, this does not mean that he has completely abandoned his previous 'wild path'.

Luo Ling believes that the methods he has summed up through countless attempts are quite valuable practical experience, and many of them have demonstrated the correctness of the newly learned knowledge from another angle, which has saved him from many detours in transforming theory into actual productivity. Other methods of self-exploration, through peeling, condensing, and sublimation, have gradually become clear ideas, and along these lines, Luo Ling easily determined the topics for himself to study and explore in the future.

For example, 'Mighty'! The weapon drinks too much blood, and it becomes a hundred people to cut it, and a thousand people to cut it will gradually have a kind of cold and sharp that is different from ordinary swords. Of course, this is just the abstract intuition of the average person. A person like Luo Ling, who has a keen sense of 'power' and 'energy', has a much deeper sense of power.

A few days ago, Luo Ling visited several weapons sales shops at the Anshun Street base. There, a variety of intricately designed and crafted weapons were seen. He also admits that those weapons can give users more power. However, there is no one, there is the feeling of the iron knife he has been using, he always feels that something is missing, that feeling is difficult to describe, it is not sharp, in terms of sharpness alone, his knife is not ranked at all. It's not evil, those sales items with various elemental knots and magic energy parts can be called terrifying, and his knife doesn't have this feeling. Luo Ling pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a very feeling word - "instrument soul"!

As those ancient swordsmiths and swordsmen said, the sword has a sword soul, the sword has a sword soul, each weapon has its own soul, with the soul will have spirituality, with spirituality can communicate with the user's mind, heart and sword unity.

So, how did this soul come about?

Luo Ling believes that the soul of the weapon is born with the weapon. Drinking blood and killing hundreds of people is just a way to nourish the soul, and it is not very efficient.

Luo Ling thought, since there is a soul, there should also be a character and a character, if the material that constitutes the weapon is its flesh, the energy channel that is so fine that it is difficult to see the naked eye is the bloodline, and the axis line is its bone, then the focus of the weapon should be attributed to its character. To put it simply, a sword, whether it is good at toughness, or upright, suitable for picking, stabbing, or good for swinging and cutting, this is a superficial distinction from the function, so deeper, Luo Ling believes that 'instrumentality' should be a perfect combination with 'instrument soul'.

Assuming that the soul of the instrument is as violent as fire, then the instrument should be incomparably hard, rather than bending, and the appearance should naturally be simple and vigorous. If the soul of the instrument is gloomy like water, then the instrument should be flexible and free, sharp and cold, and the appearance should be sharp and light.

Since the weapon is a 'spear', the armor is naturally a 'shield', and the spear has a soul and character, so why can't the shield have it? Drawing inferences from one another, Luo Ling realized that these theories and assumptions that have been handed down from ancient times and gradually lost their essence and become idle talk are a way worth studying......

With advanced casting instruments, weapon-making became a true 'idea of ten years of work, hands-on for three minutes. Therefore, Luo Ling was not in a hurry to smelt and forge, he thought about it, figured it out, and it was not too late to do it.

Luo Ling's attitude towards all kinds of knowledge is rigorous and cautious, from the nature of the material, to the rationality of the structure, to the impact of strength, energy, and even temperature and impact on the weapon, all aspects are all issues that he has to consider. To do this, he purchased a derivator.

The derivator can perform logical operations and analysis operations, and under the premise of combining a large amount of data and data, it can imitate the manufacturing process and calculate a series of data such as the characteristics of the finished product. For example, the designer wanted a sword with dark energy attributes, he chose refined copper as the main material, titanium, platinum, chromium as auxiliary materials, dark energy elements as ingredients, and the proportion of various materials was ......, and finally submitted these data for derivation, and concluded that how much hard value, how much toughness, how much magic energy circulation, what is the sharpness coefficient, etc., this is the main function of the derivation instrument.

With the derivator, a lot of material and time is saved for the designer. Of course, this is in terms of general application, if you plan to make high-quality, epic, or even legendary-level items, the utility of the derivation instrument will be greatly reduced, and some subtle changes are not something that can be captured and deduced by the instrument of the dead set of data such as the derivation instrument, and it can only be done by real practical operation.

For Luo Ling, the role of the derivator is more to point out the direction for him, avoid unnecessary repetitive operations and losses, as well as unreasonable design ideas. Another function is to find out the hidden principle from the seemingly chaotic conclusions in countless deductions, and to find the almost inevitable truth from seemingly accidental changes.

The derivator looks like a computer with a chassis and a monitor in one, and the most expensive part of it is the material database that can be constantly updated, the price of 23000 palladium can only buy the derivation instrument with the material library grade F, and then up, every time you raise a level, the price will double, such a money-burning thing, even Luo Ling, who feels that he has some small money, is shocked to stick out his tongue. It is more cost-effective to purchase a material analyzer by yourself to slowly complete the material library of the derivator.

The weapons he uses need to be upgraded, and the sniper gun is not considered, the firearm is just a kind of launcher, and the real lethal effect is the ammunition, no matter how much you kill with a firearm, there is no such feeling of a sword. Before the research on the soul and the nature of the instrument has not made some progress, Luo Ling is not prepared to invest too much energy in hot weapons.

The spear gun, although the appearance is a little dirty, and the materials composed of it are not worth mentioning, but after all, there are a lot of killings, especially the two three-edged spear heads, which are not stained with blood and dust, and scratch up cooked cowhide, like cutting paper, which can be described as extremely sharp.

The material of the spear gun Luo Ling planned to completely replace it with a new one, but he didn't plan to give up the somewhat powerful soul he had cultivated, so he tried to use the dissociator to extract the essence from the spear gun to see if he could refine the soul as well. If this theory is successful, then it can be roughly proved that the soul of the weapon exists in the essence material of a weapon.

The dissociator completely destroys the spear, making it look like a heavily weathered antiquity. The condensate is only the size of yellow rice, and the rarity level is G.

Luo Ling shook his head helplessly, for some high-end high-quality weapons, G-level materials are almost equal to the existence of impurities!

The replacement of the new spear gun, the shape is like a short sword connected to a long handle with a triangular pyramid at the bottom, the blade part of the short sword, the middle of the sword spine is a concave blood groove, and there is a concave blood groove in the middle of the sword spine, which makes the sturdiness of the gun blade not good enough, so in order to make up for the shortcomings, the blade body is relatively thick, and the two sides of the non-blade surface, from the rear to the front end, are also with arcs, that is, the more to the tip of the gun, the thinner and flattened. The curvature of the tip of the gun is not sharp, it is very full, and it resembles the head of a round spade. At the bottom of the blade, there is a cross-shaped gun, and further down is a black handle with fine scales, the handle is 1 meter long, the blade is 50 cm, the bottom triangular pyramid is 7 cm, the total length is 157cm, the main material is pure gold, a new material refined from the alienated metal ore in areas with a high concentration of magic energy. This weapon, Luo Ling called it a 'fighting sword gun'.

It made Luo Ling regret that the transplantation test of the soul basically failed. If the feeling of being handy and connected with the sword of the heart used to be ten points, then now it is not even half a point. It seems that the way the soul exists is not what he understands.

The upgrade of another weapon, which was also the second test, Luo Ling used the incomparably sharp combat knife.

Based on the previous failure, Luo Ling did not use the dissociator to refine the essence this time, but directly sent the war knife into the metallurgical furnace to quench and remove impurities, relying on advanced smelting methods, this quenching process is much stronger than the hundred forging method of the ancients.

After quenching, the weight of the blade is reduced by 7 percent, that is, 7% of impurities are removed. Taking out the original battle knife that had been cooled and melted into a simple cylinder, Luo Ling felt it with his heart, and that feeling not only did not decay, but became stronger by three points.

Luo Ling was overjoyed, it seems that the refined material is more suitable for the existence and growth of the soul, and the existence of the soul has no necessary relationship with its appearance.

Continue the trial.

This time, it's separation. The steps just now only removed the impurities, and the composition of the war knife was not simple, mainly steel and copper, as well as tin, lead and other components, which was caused by the lack of equipment, poor craftsmanship, and backward techniques when it was built.

Thus, the cylinder is divided into three parts, steel, copper, and the rest of the metal elements.

As a result, all three substances have that feeling, but all of them are weakened, and the sum of the three pieces is less than the original amount, that is, in the process of separation, some of them are lost. Another thing that attracted Luo Ling's attention was that the one that gave him the strongest induction was not the steel with the highest specific gravity, nor the copper with good conductivity, but the remaining part.

Back to the furnace, Luo Ling fused the three materials again, and then baked them, the induction was still there, and he generally felt that there was no loss during the fusion, or the loss was abnormally slight. Overall, I feel that the strength has been reduced by two percent, and it is almost back to the level before tempering.

Re-separation. This time, the one with the strongest induction was replaced with copper, and it was concluded that the strength and transfer of the soul were not centered on the material. The pattern remains to be discovered......

Luo Ling restrained his plan to continue the experiment, there must be a blade in his hand, and the battle knife will also be destroyed, the gains outweigh the losses, and the research of the soul will never be completed overnight. Let's first integrate the basic knowledge of the weapon soldier. This time to study the soul of the weapon, it just so happens that the weapon needs to be replaced and upgraded.

"Brother! It's time to eat! Xiao Zi's weak voice came from the communicator.

"Oh, come on!" Luo Ling put down the work at hand, took the lifting basket to the attic, carried out the dissociation of magic energy radiation, and then came out of the passage, took the hot towel handed by Xiao Zi and applied it to his face, wiped his hands again, handed the towel to Xiao Zi, and then went to the living room to sit down.

A hot meal was served, two hot dishes, a fried mushroom with meat and a vegetarian roasted cabbage, a newly cultivated green vegetable that resembled the sweet borage in wild vegetables, and tasted similar to oily lettuce. A small dish of appetizing shredded taro, the staple food is rice, and Xiaozi is porridge. It will take some time for her stomach to get used to it, and now she can only eat soft foods that are slightly better than liquid foods.

There are vegetables and meats, all fresh, and such a standard of recipes is already a luxury for most survivors. 3 palladium for a meal, which is equivalent to 20 yuan can make a person eat for 300 yuan in the era when he is full and well-fed.

In terms of investment in diet, Luo Ling can be said to have spared no effort, this is mainly due to Xiaoqing and Xiaozi, as for himself, the delicious meal is nothing more than a taste enjoyment, from the day of the mutation to the present, his digestive system ability has weakened to less than a quarter of the original, and the highest record is four months without granules and 27 days without water.

He didn't eat much, but Luo Ling ate very slowly and meticulously, a small bowl of rice and some vegetables would take about an hour to eat, and it seemed that the food could be directly absorbed by the body when it entered the stomach through the esophagus. The habits at the table are very good, not cranky, and never too much.

Xiao Zi knew that talking to Luo Ling about things at this time would make him unhappy, so he just held his cheek with one hand and watched Luo Ling eat quietly.

Luo Ling is not handsome enough, just entered the base, his beard and hair are all stubble, and later he got a haircut, Luo Ling meant short hair, but Song Yizhou said it was not good, his face was too contoured, giving people a feeling of being too rigid, and with longer hair, it looked soft and full. So Luo Ling tied up a single pigtail. However, Song Yizhou's suggestion to let him dye his hair was cut off, so a lot of his hair has turned gray, even the stubble on his temples, lips, and under his jaw is a little gray. In fact, Xiao Zi knew that he was only 26 years old.

The eyebrows are not thick or light, say eight characters are not eight characters, say that the sword eyebrows are not sword eyebrows, the two eyebrows are very wide, enough to put two fingers together. The old people say that people with upright and wide eyebrows have a wide heart, Xiaozi doesn't know if it's true, but after getting along for so long, she really hasn't seen Luo Ling worried, and she always looks so indifferent.

Luo Ling's eyes are a little slender, and they are rarely completely open, fortunately, they are very attentive, otherwise they will be like carelessness, which will give people the feeling of being lazy and always dozing off.

The nose is not straight enough, the mouth is not shapely, and the ears are still a little fanned, so calculated, this facial features really have no parts to take, but the skin is better, no wrinkles, and white enough, but the white skin is not an advantage for men, coupled with the not strong enough body, ordinary height, so that he gives the first impression that he can't take light and heavy, and his family background is not good enough.

is still those eyes, dust, wind and frost, and even vicissitudes of life, with that well-defined face, which gives this ordinary face a unique, 'precipitated' taste. It seems to be an old altar of wine, with a mediocre appearance, and only when the person who recognizes the goods opens the lid of the altar, it will exude a pungent aroma of wine.

Being stared at by Xiao Zi so intently, Luo Ling gradually became a little unnatural. Finally, I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Zi shook her head lightly and smiled, "I just want to engrave my brother's appearance in my heart." ”

Luo Ling didn't say anything, until after eating, Xiao Zi put away the dishes and bowls and handed him a cup of tea, then said in a low voice: "Speaking of which, at your and Xiaoqing's age, you should have enjoyed college life on campus...... " What he misses the most is college life, the kind of state that is ignorant but knows some truth, has some outlook on life and morality, and is sober but still a little frivolous and naïve, unrealistic, it is the best portrayal of that time, more sensible than children, and not as tired as adults, this is like a little drunk drunk, seems to be drunk but not drunk, seems to be awake and not awake, Luo Ling really can't think of a more comfortable day than that time, so in his opinion, not going through that stage is a regret in life.
