Chapter 130: Material with Names
When a chip is designed for a device, several basic recipes or design drawings are given at the same time. The number of blueprints is determined by the initial data.
Before building the editor, Chu Jungui had already expected what kind of basic design drawings he could get, and the first two design drawings were within the range he expected: better than the normal version of the product, but the extent was limited. If you want more and better design drawings, you need scientists.
But the third design made Chu Jungui completely change his mind.
This is also a new material, and the chip even gave it a name, "survival" grade composite. The material is composed of 80% organic matter, 10% inorganic matter and 10% metal, respectively. The internal structure of the material is very complex, and if you look closely under the microscope, you will find that there are many holes of different sizes, which appear to be randomly arranged. However, the data analysis and comparison ability of the test subject is far more than human, and it can be seen at a glance that its microstructure is very similar to that of the grass stem of the purple grass.
The supporting walls inside the material are mostly made up of organic fibers, and the metal components are evenly distributed in the form of granules. Wherever the material is cut, it forms a surface with an even distribution of organic matter and metal particles.
Because of the hollow interior, its density is only one-eighth of that of ordinary steel, which is about the same as pure water, but a series of indicators such as hardness and ductility far exceed steel. In terms of the defense power that Chu Jungui values the most at present, it is already equivalent to the defense level of the main battle chariot in the Tang Dynasty.
That is, the 'survival' composite provides the same level of defense at a tenth the weight of armor alloys. Its appearance made all the design drawings of all the armor plates in Chu Jungui's hands obsolete. If it weren't for the slow pace of production, the subject would have been eager to build a house with it.
The only drawback of this composite material is that it is not resistant to low temperatures, but this does not seem to be a problem on Planet Four. It is 60 or 70 degrees Celsius during the day and above 30 degrees Celsius at night.
To produce the 'survival' composite, a large amount of comfrey is needed, as well as the leaves of the bileaved tree, which are almost endless on Planet Four, and this is not a problem. It's just that this time the editing is close to the cellular level, so the production process is very slow, with only one cubic meter of material per hour.
Chu Jungui roughly estimated that only 10 centimeters thick 'survival' grade composite materials were needed to provide a defense equivalent to 1000mm of homogeneous steel. This level of defense is fully resistant to the projectiles of the Thornbacks, whether as a base building material or as a vehicle shell. Even if the spinyback beast evolves again in the future, all Chu Jungui needs to do is to lay another layer of armor on it.
As a result, a large editor can produce more than 200 standard armor plates per day, or other structural parts of equal weight.
The advent of the 'survival' composite was a complete accident, and it went far beyond the scope of the basic design drawing, and it is not possible to achieve this level with the average advanced design drawing. Normally, Chu Jungui would set up a special materials laboratory, stuff a dozen scientists in it, and then wait for ten or eight years before he could have similar results.
It's not a fluke, there may be a bit of luck in science, but it's not the deciding factor. There must be an intrinsic reason for this design that should not have appeared. The only explanation is for this particular chip itself.
Chu Jungui's agent chip was originally very special, and it was a gift from Dr. Zero. But until then, he had been treating it as an ordinary Level 4 agent chip until he found a vulnerability that could be cracked. As the degree of cracking increases, so do the peculiarities of the chip.
The abnormally increased computing power is one of them, and the independently increased style design is also one of them. The appearance of survival materials made Chu Jungui completely aware of the difference of this chip.
It seems that the agent chip also understands that he is being targeted by Chu Jungui, and at this time he is unusually quiet, dormant and unmoving, and even reminds Chu Jungui that he should assign a new task.
However, pretending to be deaf and dumb is useless here in Chu Jungui, Chu Jungui has not yet thought about what task should be given to it, but now that he has a survival level material blueprint, he can't waste his talent anymore. So Chu Jungui directly threw the workbench of the fourth-level agent to the chip, and asked it to design the alien version of the workbench accordingly.
The chip silently accepted the task and then gave 110 hours of research time.
"Sure enough, there was a problem. Chu Jungui sneered in his heart. According to the calculations of the test subject, it will take at least 2,000 to 3,000 hours to carry out this task with Lin Xi's fifth-level agent chip, and it may not be successful. According to the performance of the standard fourth-level agent chip, it will take 600-800 hours, and there is a small probability that it will fail.
This chip directly gave 110 hours of research time, and did not mention the probability of failure at all, and it was about to jump out of the category of level 3 chips. Subject had a hunch that while this guy had always liked to underestimate research time in the past, this time it must have been deliberately increased by increasing research time.
However, the research time estimate can be falsified, but the research process will not be affected by this, and it will be completed as long as it should be completed, and there will be corresponding prompts after completion. This cannot be changed. At most, the chip takes a little more time on the exterior design, but not much, a few hours longer.
Chu Jungui didn't believe that this chip research workbench could also design a supporting base for this workbench.
As for what the workbench itself looks like, whether it is magical realism, alien bionics, or modern minimalism, or even what kind of Iron Throne or Lotus Terrace is shaped, it doesn't matter if Chu Jungui returns, just toss the chip casually, as long as it can be used.
After assigning the task to the chip, Chu Jungui gave the large editor a long-term task to continuously manufacture 'survival' grade composite materials. In the meantime, he summoned the warriors who had just assembled the editor together and told them to continue building a large Alien version of the Editor, starting with 50 of them.
In addition to 'survival' grade composites, heavy metals and bio-coatings are also useful. Heavy alloys can be used as a complete substitute for biomaterials in the manufacture of gun barrels, barrels, gun bodies and other components. Base 2 finally saw the light of day to get rid of biomass weapons.
Heavy alloys are also the basis for structural parts of buildings and can also be used to make a range of equipment and components. With it, basically all the equipment and machinery can be upgraded. Bio-coatings, on the other hand, can greatly extend the service life of equipment, and the effect is better when used with heavy alloys.
Chu Jungui sent all three material design drawings to Lin Xi and asked her to re-plan according to the current materials. A radical upgrade of Base 2 is about to begin.
