[Chapter 196: Spherical Object]

"It's ...... Excavated from the tunnel? ”

Ren Hong was also surprised when he saw its true face, because its appearance was too peculiar, it was an irregular spherical body, and the curved curvature of the upper and lower ends was higher than that of the middle, making it appear more sharp. Wei Yufeng looked like a sphere, and when Ren Hong looked at it, he felt that it was even more like an inverted parallelogram, and if it was cut from the middle, the internal section could really draw four patterns that were exactly the same and parallel to each other.

"Yes, none of the MO3's augers can affect it." A staff member answered him.

"Huh?" Ren Hong's eyes suddenly lit up, he found a very peculiar picture on the surface of this object, looked at it carefully, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face, "This is ...... Trilobite fossils? ”

Ren Hong's seemingly casual words surprised everyone present, this is an extinct species on the earth, trilobites are the most representative creatures of the Paleozoic Era hundreds of millions of years ago, and the people present are all staff members of Matrix Technology, with extremely high academic qualifications, naturally no one will not know what trilobites are.

"Clean up this place, be careful." Ren Hong said to the top half of the object.

Under the cleaning of the staff, the peculiar pattern of the position was clearer and more complete in front of everyone, and Ren Hong could basically determine that the pattern attached to the surface was a trilobite fossil.

This suggests that the object is at least 250 million years old, and the fossil trilobite formed by clinging to the surface is one of the evidences. Another piece of evidence is the object itself, also known as the Carboniferous period in the Permian era. It is an important era for the formation of coal, and the color of the surface of the object is likely to be composed of carboniferous substances.

Come to think of it. Ren Hong suddenly asked: "By the way, what is the composition of the soil excavated from the tunnel soil layer?" What is the rock formation? ”

"It's basically the same as the data you got before the mining, except that this thing is a bit ...... In addition, the excavated soil is dominated by sedimentary products of sea retreat events, 'conglomerate' and 'conglomerate'. ”

"Got it, get this thing back to headquarters!"

There was no equipment in the excavation site to analyze the data of this "stone ball", and after returning to the headquarters, Ren Hong began to analyze the dark object in a series of ways. At least 2.5 years old, it is obvious that he was naturally formed, but the symmetry and solidity of its appearance made Ren Hong very curious about its internal structure.

After being transported back to the headquarters laboratory, Ren Hong immediately analyzed its structure.

"The results of the analysis are in. Brother! The structure of the object consists of a three-layer structure. The surface layer is a carboniferous structure, the middle layer is composed of magmatic rocks, and the inner layer is the smallest, more like a core, with a diameter of less than 10 cm at the longest and no more than 7 cm wide at the maximum, and the material composition cannot be identified. ”

Sakura's data report made Ren Hong think for a while, "I see, this shows that it should come from somewhere else." At least on its journey, it passed through volcanic areas, probably near submarine volcanoes, volcanic activity was more frequent in prehistoric times than it is now, and it drifted on the ocean floor and eventually deposited in a corner. With the movement of the earth's tectonic plates, the sedimentary rocks were exposed to the surface, which happened to be discovered by me hundreds of millions of years later on Hainan Island. ”

"So here's the problem. Why is it a spherical structure? ”

"Wait!" Ren Hong was suddenly stunned and said, "Can't identify the material components? Is it due to lack of penetration or something else? ”

"Our laser scanners can't penetrate the core." Sakura said.

"Then just cut it open and analyze it in depth. Looking at what the hell the kernel is, I'm getting more and more curious now. Ren Hong said. Curiosity is also growing, unrecognizable substance components? For scientific research, the unknown often represents a new discovery.

The spherical object is fed into an enclosed transparent glass space under the control of an intelligent mechanical arm, and the small enclosed space is moved to a mechanical round table, on the side of which the turbines with five rings are tightly linked together and rotate in opposite directions, increasing at a faster and faster speed, and finally emitting a dazzling light source.

"Up to 300 times the output power."

The machine is emitting a continuous sound of chirping, without the slightest interruption, inside the enclosed space, two mechanical arms are located at opposite ends of the edge and aligned with each other, the next moment, the ports of the two mechanical arms shoot a straight laser and connect with each other, the two mechanical arms are almost 0 error to translate to the spherical object below.

Ren Hong's eyes were staring at the spotlight screen in front of him, "Let's start!" As he spoke, the two suspended mechanical arms slowly descended, and the horizontal cutting rays slowly approached the spherical object, easily breaking through the surface layer, and the magmatic rock in the middle layer also broke through without any pressure, and the cutting rays continued to go deeper, until they were close to the edge of the inner core of the spherical object, but the cutting rays stopped at the edge of the inner core.

"What's the situation?" Ren Hong, who was staring at the screen, said.

"Rays can't split the core!" Sakura said.

"What? Can't cut the kernel? Ren Hong said in surprise, and added: "Increase the output power to 500 times!" ”

"Still won't work!"

"800 times the output power!"

"Still can't go deeper!"

"Turn on to maximum peak!"

"Still can't go even 0.1 millimeters. Hey? Brother, it's frantically absorbing the energy generated by the rays, brother! ”

"What?" Ren Hong looked at the screen with wide eyes, his hands quickly operated for a moment, and the energy reserve data of the ray cutting equipment was instantly listed in front of him, at this moment, he looked at the data displayed on the screen incredibly, and the reserve energy was being consumed crazily. It takes less than 1 minute for the cutting equipment to enter the peak output and consume 67% of the total reserve energy, which is too scary, and it is absolutely impossible for the peak output energy consumption of the equipment to continue to consume so much high-purity energy in 1 minute.

69% of the total reserve energy, Ren Hongke is very aware of how much actual energy the 67% reserve energy has, if this energy is used on the "eagle", it is enough to make it operate for a week, obviously, the lost energy is obviously absorbed by the core.

The core is absorbing the energy of the cutting rays, and the equipment has to maintain peak output, and the energy reserve is depleted like crazy.

"Turn off the device, Sakura!"

As soon as the words fell, the cutting line of sight disappeared. He stared blankly at the globular object at first, and after a while, an inexplicable look of excitement welled up in his heart.

"I think my luck is coming, Sakura! This kernel is probably what I want the most, quickly, cut off all the surfaces, and keep the kernel intact. ”

The lost energy has long been thrown out of the clouds by him, he knows very well that the equipment has not failed, so many high-purity energy industries cannot disappear out of thin air, only absorbed by the core, but how big is its volume? What kind of substance is half the size of a fist that can absorb such a huge amount of energy?

At this moment, he was already impatient, and he couldn't wait to take out the core immediately and see what it really was.
