"You know, there's no way I'm going to ask you to name me."

Ai Dakang rejected Ji Xinghe's kindness after hesitation, which made Li Yuanba breathe a sigh of relief.

But when people were disappointed because of this, the conversation changed.

"But I think there is a very interesting saying in your dragon language, eggs can't be put in the same basket."

The value of the egg itself is really not worth mentioning in this era, but the egg represents an endless hope.

Eggs hatch chickens, chickens lay eggs.

It is a very simple truth, and it will naturally be understood by people.

"I'm willing to try." Ai Dakang didn't need people to analyze and guess, and said on his own: "At this point, I am different from my second brother. Of course, you can also understand that I don't want to die, and I am willing to fight for opportunities in any way, now and in the future. ”

Ji Xinghe looked at Ai Dakang calmly and asked softly, "Empty words? ”

Ai Dakang frowned and thought about the meaning of this idiom, although it has been learning dragon language for more than ten years, and the power of qi has brought it extraordinary memory, but after all, it is not a habitual language, and there is no chance to use it in ordinary times.

But it still figured it out.

In its opinion, if Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba want to rescue Li Zhengfan, they must use it in exchange.

Li Zhengfan's value to the Federation can be big or small, to put it mildly, the Imperial Orangutan currently captured and killed by the Federation is counted as one, including the former prince and his half-brother, which are not as valuable as it.

To put it mildly, Li Zhengfan is far from being worth it, so ......

Ai Dakang understood the meaning of Ji Xinghe, so he decided to cooperate with Ji Xinghe's performance, and it said softly and confidently: "The formula of tungsten steel alloy. ”

Actually, it should use interrogative sentences, but the use of affirmative sentences shows that this is the biggest cost of its willingness to cooperate with Ji Xinghe's performance.

Just exchange me for Li Zhengfan, everyone except Li Yuanba may be reluctant, but after I add this bargaining chip, it is enough.

When Ai Dakang thought like this, Ji Xinghe really agreed as it expected.

"Okay, tell me the recipe, and I'll let you go back to the empire."

Yes?

People were shocked once again, though the tungsten alloy formula was of great value to the Federation, far outweighing the benefits of killing an Adakon. But is this kind of thing really a decision that Ji Xinghe can make alone?

Even if you are Ji Xinghe, even if Ai Dakang is your captive, even if Li Yuanba is standing firmly behind you now, and the 'attempt' that Ai Da Kang said, you must have a meeting to discuss it, right?

And, really don't you try the formula to get tungsten steel gold from Aidacom?

There was a lot of skepticism, but no one interrupted the conversation.

"I'll tell you when I get back."

In order to protect itself, Aidakang still has to leave some means.

But Ji Xinghe disagreed.

"I said it, tell me the recipe, and I'll let you go back to the empire."

One man and one ape, one standing and one sitting, looked at each other in the cage.

After a long time, Ida Kang softened and seemed to believe it again.

"I'll just say it now?"

Ji Xinghe didn't wave his hand, and the relevant personnel already understood, and those who could hear it naturally stayed in the communication channel, and those who shouldn't hear it, even if they might not be able to remember the necessarily complicated formula, they couldn't listen.

As a result, the communication channel was simply shut down, several officers entered the cell, and the guards were temporarily arranged to leave.

But no one let Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba leave, and no one searched their bodies or shielded the communication devices they carried.

Their authority itself is enough to know the information they have obtained because of them.

Everything was ready, and Idacom spoke.

It has a really good memory, and it has a certain level of understanding of the Federation's material technology, and it doesn't need the help of a translator at all, so it can say the relevant materials and technologies in words that the Federation can fully understand.

It didn't need to be verified, it was already certain that humanity had finally mastered the Empire's unique tungsten steel alloy.

Whether it is the Duke armor made of tungsten steel alloy, or the general, prince, and emperor armor made of tungsten steel, it seems that it can be manufactured in batches.

After all, after mastering the formula of tungsten steel alloy, it is much closer to studying the formula of tungsten steel gold.

But all who can hear it knows perfectly well that mass production exists only in fantasy.

Even an empire with multiple mining stars can't manufacture mecha and weapons of this level in large quantities, let alone the Federation?

Emperor Wu III is just a duke armor made of only 300 tungsten steel alloys, and the manufacturing cost of tungsten steel alloy is already predictably high.

Perhaps, Emperor Wu III had more than that.

Ji Xinghe heard the formula, which meant that Xingyue had also heard the formula, and Xingyue had already started the experiment when the Federation was still recording and analyzing and starting to prepare for relevant experiments.

The original Federal No. 3 base, now in Xianyang City.

Extraterrestrial meteorites, which are not uncommon on alien planets, are found in this base itself, and have been transported to the laboratory by engineering robots, from which the necessary materials for the manufacture of tungsten steel alloy have been extracted.

This is actually not difficult for Xingyue and the Federation, about the use of extraterrestrial meteorites in the extraterrestrial meteorite, in the human world since ancient times, the Federation now uses a variety of high-strength alloys, all of which use extraterrestrial meteorites This rare ore.

The complex cosmic radiation has caused some special substances to be produced in these meteorites, or the original normal substances, which have undergone specific changes due to the influence of cosmic radiation.

Although the Federation is still far from mastering the technology of this cosmic radiation, and it is a bit boastful to say that it knows what it is, but theoretically, it is completely possible to produce an unlimited amount of extraterrestrial meteorites.

Because the meteorites in the universe are really innumerable.

But until you really understand the key, it takes a certain amount of luck and a lot of time to artificially create a specific extraterrestrial meteorite.

Just a random stone, leaving it in the cosmic vacuum for a few days, and then throwing it to the surface of the planet, will not directly get the extraterrestrial meteorite that human beings need.

Whether there is a corresponding change is one thing, and in the process of falling to the surface of the planet, whether it will be destroyed and only worthless fly ash will be left is also a key reason.

"What an interesting molecular structure."

Xingyue looked at the tungsten alloy in the manufacturing process, and the camera that served as the eye had a light called wisdom flickering.

In the last century, the Federation has proposed and begun to study nanotechnology, and the ultimate direction of nanotechnology can be summed up in one sentence: any combination of all kinds of molecules can create any kind of molecular structure.

Matter is made up of molecules, just as humans are made of cells, and although there are atoms under the molecules, the nucleus of the atom is made up of protons and neutrons. But as long as they have the ability to control molecules, there will be little difference between humans and legendary gods.

Unfortunately, more than a century has passed, and the processing accuracy of the Federation's nanotechnology is still stuck in the unit of nanometers.

1 nanometer is 10 to the minus 9th power, while the general molecular diameter is on the order of magnitude 10 to the minus 10 to the power.

It doesn't sound like a big gap, but in fact, the gap is bigger than the difference between Qin Wangzhan's current manual machining accuracy and Ji Xinghe's current manual machining accuracy.

Moreover, just because the processing accuracy at the molecular level has been achieved does not mean that humans can claim to control the molecule. If we want to make molecules shape according to the structure imagined by human beings, it is another research direction as broad as the sea of stars.

Just like now, under the relevant substances and proportions, a specific molecular structure was naturally born, and then tungsten steel alloy was born.

Xingyue also couldn't understand the principle, and it was impossible to directly use other substances to forcibly change the molecular structure in it, so that tungsten steel alloy could be made like turning stones into gold.

But it doesn't matter, regarding tungsten steel alloy and the extraterrestrial meteorite that tungsten steel gold inevitably needs, it is quite difficult for the Federation to obtain, and it is also not easy for the Empire.

But because of the special life form of Xingyue, he was born with a great advantage in this regard.

"Xianyang, your current mission has added two more in addition to repairing the city. First, make tungsten steel alloy as much as possible. Second, through the formula of tungsten steel alloy, the formula of tungsten steel gold was studied. ”

Xianyang still replied mechanically: "I need more computing power to support it." ”

"Don't worry, there will be bread, there will be milk, don't worry, we have time."

Xingyue thought of the so-called advanced alien civilization, and when she said this to Xianyang, she was also talking to herself.

After arranging the work task in Xianyang, Xingyue came to a small spaceship in an instant.

The spaceship looked very rudimentary, not even a basic human life support system, like a frame with only engines and wheels.

It is impossible for humans and orangutans to sail between the stars in this spaceship, but for Xingyue, it and its subordinates do not need a so-called life-sustaining system at all.

Oxygen supply device? Thermostats? Food and water?

It's all a burden, and it's all discarded.

In addition to the energy device and the engines necessary for the ship, the most in this spaceship are all kinds of robotic arms.

"Chang'an, get up."

Chang'an, an artificial intelligence system similar to Nuwa, was activated because of this, and it was actually a copy program of Nuwa, which was originally intended to be used in the second city of the Galaxy Empire after the transformation of Xingyue.

But now that the Galaxy Empire is far away, and there is a more important mission, Xingyue is naturally going to change its plans.

"What does the Admiral command?"

As soon as it was activated, such a question was asked, of course, not because Chang'an had awakened, but because Xingyue was asking and answering himself.

She now wants to be a general.

"The Lord has decreed that you immediately set off for Zhenxing to capture the specific ore we need on the Zhenxing ring."

"Yes."

Chang'an agreed without any hesitation, because it had no self-awareness. Then, based on the relevant information stored in the spaceship's intelligent core, the direction of Zhenxing at this time was found.

Like Alien, Zhenxing is a planet in this star system born by the Federation, but unlike Alien, Zhenxing is a gaseous planet and does not have a normal understanding of land.

Moreover, the distance between Zhenxing and Azure Star is too far, the average distance is about 1.5 billion kilometers, and it will take about four and a half years to cross it with the fastest spaceship of the Federation now.

So for the Federation, the value of the town star is extremely small.

But from today onwards, the value of Zhenxing will become much, much greater, because Zhenxing has a special celestial structure, which is generally called a planetary ring, and the nature surrounding Zhenxing is called Zhenxing ring.

It is made up of countless pieces of rubble wrapped in ice, ranging from a few microns in diameter to tens of meters in diameter.

They're all extraterrestrial meteorites. (Note 1)

It is very likely to contain many special substances for the manufacture of tungsten steel alloy and tungsten steel gold, and Xingyue will naturally not let it go, and is ready to strike first.

Although she only has Chang'an, a somewhat stupid artificial intelligence program, and a small spaceship that can be described as tattered, as long as she starts to act, it will be endless.

The resources at the disposal of the Valhalla Council now are completely different from those at the time of its creation.

Chang'an is just a pioneer.

"Go ahead."

After Xingyue controlled the spacecraft in Chang'an and began to accelerate, it was once again instantaneous and returned to the alien planet.

At the speed of this spaceship, it will take about two years to reach Zhenxing, which is much faster than the most advanced spaceship in the Federation.

Because it abandons a lot of burdens.

In the same way, the time for this type of spacecraft made by Xingyue to reach the alien star from Azure Star is not a normal two-month voyage, but only one and a half months.

There are some problems with the timing, mainly to avoid the possibility of being discovered by the federal authorities.

During the time when Xingyue made tungsten steel alloy and ordered Chang'an to go to Zhenxing, Ji Xinghe's interrogation of Aidakang had also ended.

Some of the follow-up questions and answers are very routine and not worth mentioning.

The real key lies in the fact that after the interrogation is over, there will inevitably be several meetings, during which the first meeting has been prepared.

For high-level meetings of the military, the threshold for participation can be said to be the rank of general, but not all generals are eligible to participate.

Therefore, it can also be called a meeting of powerful generals.

Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba naturally participated in this meeting.

Tu Yuan, as a serious federal general, also has the authority to participate. Tang Qiao and Davis, as the generals in charge of the Battle Scar Canyon Theater, are also among the high-ranking ones. Yang Antai doesn't need to say much.

There are a lot of people, but there is no mouth.

In the quiet meeting channel, Yin Wanovich said unexpectedly: "General Ji, please tell me what you think first." ”

"I've already said it, let it go back."

Yin Wanovich frowned and said euphemistically, "But it must still have a lot of information that is important to us, such as the precise coordinates of the Gods Mountain Jump Base. And, of course, the exact coordinates of the Battlescar Canyon jump base that we had during our scouting. ”

Ji Xinghe's calm voice had already sounded again when Yin Wanovic's words fell.

He said.

"For example, how do the people in the Federation who trade with it and the Empire relate to it?"

The conference channel fell into absolute silence.

Before this interrogation began, everyone thought that this was the most important question that Ji Xinghe should ask. This is also one of the reasons why Nantianmen wanted to snatch Idakang, but was stopped by the tough Li Yuanba.

But Ji Xinghe didn't ask just now.

He asked now.
