Chapter 137: Research Work
In the past, Zhou Zhongmou did not have the time or ability to do what he liked—such as studying the interesting creatures in this world and trying to see what things in his past fantasies could be realized in this world. But one of the things that is very unfortunate now is that with the passage of time, many interesting creatures have disappeared, and some secret realms have disappeared.
Fortunately, there are still many monsters on Remilet Island, and Zhou Zhongmou is really interested in the ecology of monsters, and he has also thought about whether to become a beast to observe--but this kind of thing has many dragons who regard this as a hobby, and they are desperate to observe and study the ecology of these powerful monsters in the wild, and record the forms and data of these monsters. "So there's no rush for this kind of thing, I think it's nice to look at these books with pictures. Zhou Zhongmou flipped through the large open book in his hand and said with considerable satisfaction. Speaking of which, he was lucky to have kept the large notebook with magic that he had always kept, and the number of monsters copied in it could now replenish the dragons' database - most of the monsters in it were now just legends, and even the number of goblins in the world had decreased exponentially.
Zhou Zhongmou used a crane to lift the beetle, which was like an elephant, onto the processing table, and his arm was put in the shelf, and according to the movement of his arm, the sharp knife on the mechanical arm hanging from the slide rail cut into the thick carapace. The sharp blade severed the tendons under the carapace, and the next moment several sharp spikes peeled the entire carapace from the crack, revealing the soft body underneath. It is a weevil, endemic to the island of Remiret. to be bulky. Strength is known for its exaggeration. The carapace of this bug is an excellent armor material. It's light and sturdy, and the magic conducts smoothly, making it a high-priced commodity among the raw materials produced in the black tower on Remilet Island.
Although weevils are not carnivorous insects, their sheer size and the resulting sheer strength, combined with their sturdy armor, are enough to make most hunters helpless. Most of the swords and arrows bounced off the black-purple carapace, leaving not even a single white mark. This weevil was caught by Zhou Zhongmou himself, and the head of the insect was pulled out by him at the first time, although the weevil has great strength. But in front of the real "ancient dragon species" Zhou Zhongmou, it is still not enough to see, and the sturdy carapace can't save his life at all.
Zhou Zhongmou is not only interested in the carapace material, but also in the tendons of this insect. "After the current is applied, the contraction ability is extremely strong, and if this thing solves the problem of preservation, it can completely play the role of an electronic muscle, which is much more convenient than making a motor with a wire coil. The weight and volume are also much better than the electric motor, and even better than the hydraulic power pipe. But the preservation of this thing is really a serious problem," Zhou Zhongmou looked at the peeled beetle tendon in the tank where the culture liquid was preserved, and thought that this thick tendon was now releasing electricity again and again with Zhou Zhongmou, contracting and relaxing in the sink, causing bursts of splash. Misha expressed partial disgust at Zhou Zhongmou's dissection of bugs, compared to disgusting bugs. She prefers the mutated vines or all sorts of plants - and she also notices some fungal changes.
Zhou Zhongmou was dragged by Misha to a small real room that was specially customized for Misha for fun, and Misha made Zhou Zhongmou look at a white thing in the glass sink like a treasure. "What's this?, tofu cubes?" Zhou Zhongmou muttered. There is no tofu in this world, so he quickly changed his tune and said, "This is the large mushroom you cultivated?" Misha, how does this mean?" Of course, he harvested Misha's eyes.
"You see, when I turn on the electricity" Misha flipped a small switch, and a trace of electricity was introduced from the metal ball carrying a large amount of static charge on the side, and then Zhou Zhongmou saw that the white mushroom root in the sink suddenly shrank, and the two chains connected to the root directly dragged two metal blocks. "This power" Zhou Zhongmou looked at the volume of this thing, then the volume of two metal blocks, and then compared the weight, "This thing is actually stronger than the tendons of insects." ”
"If you change to a certain percentage of salt water, it can be strengthened by 30%!" Misha's nose was almost up to the sky, she looked at this lumpy object that switched violently between contraction and relaxation after being electrified, and her eyes pinched the lower body of Zhou Zhongmou, who was carefully looking at the number of jù, "You can be in heat when you look at the movements of this thing, are you too exaggerated?" Zhou Zhongmou was suddenly shocked, but then he satisfied this woman's desire, to be honest, he was also excited to see these numbers, but after the incident, there was still a stern question, "What will happen to this thing after it dries?" Zhou Zhongmou asked Misha.
"I don't know. The woman replied with all her might.
Zhou Zhongmou now has to devote himself to pleasant research work, as for what to study? What to do with these electronic muscles? Zhou Zhongmou has not thought about their use, in fact, he does not think about the actual use, and it is very happy to simply study, isn't it? This at least makes him not think about the question of how long it will take for the ball of the earth to grow. Of course, this person did think of some more obscene uses at the first time, but this is just thinking about Tu Yile, and before solving the problem of preserving activity, what kind of use is actually just a dream.
This is an era of the explosion of magic alchemy technology, just like the explosion of science and technology on the earth in the nineteenth century, many magical theories and inventions are actually constantly emerging, at least on the mainland. These inventions, along with theories, stimulated a huge demand for alchemical materials - not only in practice, but also in the production factories built on the basis of these inventions, which required large quantities of raw materials to make a variety of finished products for life. Compared with the "classical" era that Zhou Zhongmou experienced hundreds of years ago, the living needs of human beings have directly risen several steps in this year. From Zhou Zhongmou's analysis of the society on the earth, the world presents a peculiar hybrid form of feudalism and capitalism, which really brings Zhou Zhongmou memories like watching old movies.
Although Remilet Island is isolated from the mainland and Novaya Zemlya, the news is not far behind. Human ingenuity had led them to find a way to travel between Remiret and Novaya Zemlya in relative safety and frequent—these "ships," hung up by large airbags of relatively light air, a by-product of alchemy, were able to travel between the two places without easily alarming the sea kings. However, the carrying capacity of these ships is not as good as that of real ships, and the speed of the wind is not as fast as that of ships with paddle wheels. But in terms of numbers, these ships are quite good at communicating the two places. (To be continued......)
