Chapter 156 Specimen Collection
With Hank's permission, Toms didn't care about the fatigue after a night of action, and immediately decided to start the operation, trying to first capture one or two pieces of metal debris on the surface of the base, and quickly transfer it to the family if he had the opportunity, so that the family's scientific research and development system could carry out preliminary research on the base.
His ultimate goal is to finally crack all the secrets of this base, so that he can fight against that powerful organization in the future, and finally be able to divide one side, or even counterattack, and restore the absolute dominance of the white race on the earth.
Of course, if this idea is to be completed, it is destined to be a very long, very difficult, and even almost impossible thing, but the glorious history of the white race at the top of the earth for hundreds of years makes it difficult for Toms to accept that the glory of his civilization will be eliminated by history, which is likely to become a reality.
As long as we can rise to the challenge and turn their bargaining chips into ours, then this immature and young organization will quickly fall to the bottom, and Thomas is convinced of this.
Hank saw a little bit about Toms's ambitions, but he knew more about the details of this base, and knew a lot of unknown details, but the more he knew, the more shocking he was.
He really can't expect too much from Toms's ambitions, but out of the idea of winning over the family behind this person, he is willing to do something convenient. As for how much can be gained. He didn't really expect much.
For the convenience of Toms. Hank deliberately opened a section of the underground passage in and out of the base, let him do it, the security protection system of this passage, he has used his personal authority, all of them are blocked and closed, otherwise, without waiting for the results of their experiments, the security mechanism behind the passage. can strangle all of them, who are suspected of sabotaging the base.
At this time, Thomas stood in the middle of this passage, gently touching the metal alloy on the wall with his hand, which was a silvery composite alloy, which was not cold to the touch, but had a very warm feeling!
Toms subconsciously felt that this kind of base was very common, and the metal that was found everywhere should also be a very important material. There should be a lot of uses, if you can study it thoroughly. It can't be said that it will turn into a very large profit.
At least this metal alloy is not even sprayed with anti-rust paint on the surface, so simply placed here, but there is no sign of rust at all, which shows that it has extraordinary anti-corrosion properties, which is worth studying.
"Try it with an axe first and see if you can chop off a piece, be careful not to hurt yourself!"
The subordinates brought all kinds of tools, saws, axes, welding machines, strong acids, etc., and they could get some metal scraps down anyway.
Toms took a few steps back and motioned for his men to get moving.
Some soldiers who had nothing to do also came over, and surrounded the passage tightly, a strong smell filled the passage for a while, Thomas subconsciously had an itchy nose and retching throat, these soldiers were really too unsophisticated, personal hygiene was not taken seriously at all, what foot odor, bad breath, all kinds of complex and disgusting smells were mixed together, it was almost tempting to commit suicide, however, although Thomas was very uncomfortable, he still tried his best to restrain himself, and did not show anything strange on his face. There was no attempt to disperse anything.
His current popularity in the team is seriously insufficient, according to the analysis of his personal think tank, this has something to do with his personal habits, when he first came into contact, he could not adapt to many things in the team, and expressed a great disgust, but it turned out that this disgust not only did not help, but further increased the estrangement between him and the soldiers.
So, in order to gain a foothold in this team, there are some things that he has to adapt.
Not only must he adapt, but he must also be able to attract people well.
"Everyone let go, all step back, and they're about to use an axe to cut hard, if the metal fragments that collapse down hurt everyone, it's not good, all step back, pay attention to safety!"
After shouting hoarsely several times, the onlookers barely retreated a little, yes, just leave it like this, who do you love!
"Let's get started!"
Thomas then gave the order.
The subordinate who held an axe for a long time pushed the protective blindfold on his eyes down, tightened the handle of the axe with both hands, and shouted violently, lifting the axe high, and the muscles of his whole body worked together to slam it on the metal wall.
When there was a tremor, it resounded throughout the entire passage for a while, and people listened to the sore tinnitus, and they were uncomfortable for a long time.
But no one paid attention to this at this time, and everyone endured the discomfort, and all looked at the wall under the heavy blow, but there was no major change for a while.
On the contrary, it was the warrior wielding the giant axe, under a blow, he was violently shocked and retreated three steps away, his hands were shocked to the point that he could not exert his strength, the axe in his hand was shaken off, the tiger's mouth cracked, and his hands were blue and purple, and he was seriously injured.
Looking at the huge fire axe again, I saw that the sharp blade at the front end of the axe was completely twisted, and a considerable part of the axe blade was smoothed and blunted.
"This metal is so hard, it looks like it's okay to be cut like this!"
"It seems that the metal on this wall is much harder than an axe, which is equivalent to cutting an iron tree with a wooden axe, and I don't think there is even a little drama at all. ”
"High hardness does not necessarily mean that you can't cut it, the diamond has high hardness, and the hammer will still turn into powder, I think this method will work, continue, continue, change someone to go up and cut a few more times will have an effect." ”
The onlookers commented one after another, some were amazed, some were not optimistic, and some were crooked and wanted to see people touch the nails a few more times. Say anything.
Toms glanced at the gloating bastards a few times in annoyance. It's not easy to deal with them in general. These guys are all rotten meat, they don't remember to eat or fight, and they don't have much to worry about.
First, he stepped forward to comfort his subordinates, asked him if he was injured, whether the injury was serious, and when he saw that there was no major problem, he asked him to go down and take some medicine and rest well. The organization will remember his contributions.
After pacifying his men, Toms walked over to the wall and took a closer look at the wall where he had been hit with an axe.
There is a smooth place, I can't see much change, I touch it with my hand, there is a little bit of hot hands, it is not very serious, and there are no traces of deformation and distortion, which shows that the metal alloy on this wall is not only very hard, but also very tough.
There's a little thin line here. It's not very conspicuous, but it's a touch of it. There will be a slight prickly feeling, is it a slight breakage?
Toms was a little excited in his heart, he was not afraid of small changes, he was afraid that there would be no changes, as long as he could find a suitable entry point, he was not afraid that he would not be able to produce any results.
However, his excitement did not last long, because after a few slight rubs on the thin line that pierced his hand, the thin line quickly fell off, and it was actually a little residue left on the alloy wall by the iron axe when it hit in an instant, and after a few wipes of the slight rubbing, it all fell off, leaving no trace.
"The first sampling failed, start the second sampling!"
Thomas was not very disappointed, he somewhat foresaw this situation, after all, in such a high-end base, the main materials in it must not be simple, and it is not unimaginable to use such a simple and crude sampling method to produce results for a while.
The subordinates hurriedly started the second sampling work, this time the sampling was made of a certain high-strength wear-resistant alloy saw, two strong subordinates found a suitable position to start, the saw was stuck, and soon quickly pulled the saw, sawing hard.
The two subordinates prepared earplugs in advance, blocked their ears and were busy, the harsh and terrible noise had no effect on them, but the surrounding onlookers couldn't stand it, and they covered their ears and retreated farther and farther.
"You're so curious!"
Thomas was also watching with earplugs, but the harsh noise still gave him goosebumps, which made him really amazed at these guys who used their lives to see the excitement, so he simply threw two earplugs to them and watched with them.
The loud and cacophony rang for a long time, but it finally stopped, and as soon as the sound stopped, Thomas immediately walked to the job site and watched.
The saw made of high-strength alloy had been completely scrapped, and the teeth were almost smoothed, and Toms glanced away at it casually, focusing on the place where the saw had sawed through the wall.
"Did it succeed this time?" he asked his subordinates first, who were doing the first-hand work.
The two subordinates glanced at each other, and one said, "At first, it must have not been sawn, but later, it seemed that there was a faint feeling, as if a small hole had been sawed, but it should not be big." ”
Another said, "I feel that there is a possibility of success, but I am afraid that there is not much hope." This saw, it still feels a little worse, I'm afraid, even if it is sawed a little, the opening will not be very big. ”
However, despite the vagueness of the two subordinates, Toms still had a smile on his face, for he was familiar with the way his two men spoke, and knew that they always had room to speak.
Since these two subordinates said that they had succeeded, then they must have indeed sawed a hole, but I am afraid that the hole is really not big.
By this time, the sawing place had been cleared, and not only a small sawn opening had been revealed, but even all the sawn scraps had been collected without leakage.
Because these metal chips must contain some of the debris components of a special alloy, which is itself a part of the sample specimen.
In this way, the collection is so difficult, it took a rare high-strength wear-resistant saw to saw a little bit, so wide as a hair, very shallow saw mark, then this little alloy component contained in the sawdust must not be wasted, must be collected without any leftovers.
"No matter how difficult it is for us to collect, as long as we succeed, it is a great achievement, the more difficult the sample to collect, the more high-end the performance of this alloy, it is very likely to have some very special properties and values, maybe it also has great strategic value, everyone do a good job, collect as many samples as possible to go back, and when I return to the family, I will definitely invite everyone to a great achievement, the family will not forget our merits and contributions." ”
Toms stirred up his emotions and encouraged his subordinates to work harder, because he knew very well how rare this opportunity was, and Hank would give himself great convenience because of the idea of winning over his own family, so that he would have the opportunity to carry out this sample collection operation, and it was difficult to say when he would have the opportunity next time.
If there were too few samples collected this time, it would be almost meaningless, and it would be so much of a human being in vain.
Several subordinates also hurriedly started, using all kinds of means, wanting to pull out more and larger samples from this wall, all kinds of chisels, awls, have been touched, tinkling and smashing, many tools are used hard, only to be regarded as a small piece of metal alloy the size of a soybean grain and weighing about a gram from the wall.
Just when they wanted to take out more murderous weapons, such as those very corrosive industrial strong acids, and welding machines, and were about to cut out more and larger metal samples from the wall, they didn't expect a big movement in the passage suddenly.
Rows of metal walls flipped over, revealing the ferocious and terrifying faces behind the walls, which were rows of muzzles, and some special types of guns, Toms cold sweat flowed out at once, he could see that it seemed to be a laser generator, as long as it was activated, the swishing laser flew and could easily cut people into pieces, and he didn't know how to die.
"Warning, warning, the access to the base has been seriously damaged!"
"The emergency mechanism responds, and the security mechanism is activated!"
"Security authorization passed, please note that no further sabotage is allowed, otherwise the base will automatically take countermeasures and attack all personnel who sabotage the base facilities!"
"Please leave the safe passage quickly, you have been included in the special blacklist of the base, if there is any next measure to destroy the base, you will be killed as soon as possible, don't say it unexpectedly!"
Grass, just to collect this sample, not to let it be collected? Toms felt like he was going to drip blood.
"Sir, this metal is a special metal that can be converted into a solid liquid state, and it has the ability to recover automatically. ”
I saw that in the passage, the damage they had worked so hard to make was automatically healed in an instant!
Toms was dumbfounded, and his heart became more and more like a knife, such a good material, it was actually collected so little, what can be studied? (To be continued.) )
