Chapter 294: Plutonium
"Moving this corpse here, this creature doesn't seem to be that simple. Just as the gray dwarves were about to skin those monsters, Hathaway suddenly said.
The two gray dwarves carried the corpse over, and Hathaway threw the monster's corpse directly onto the workbench, then took out the space bag, took out a bunch of professional dissection tools such as knives, pliers, tweezers, etc., and changed into protective clothing. The whole process took only two minutes to complete.
"You're going to dismantle them?" asked Suren in surprise.
"Yes, this creature is a newly discovered creature, and I need to know that their body structure is still valuable. Hathaway said without looking up, and then snapped her fingers, and an energy shield wrapped the monster's corpse, then put on her gloves and prepared to start dissecting.
Su Lun looked around, and then looked at Hathaway, a 36D big bear cute girl, suddenly took out a bunch of knives to dissect the monster, this style of painting is a little weird. Hathaway didn't notice Suren's expression, and when she was ready, she began to unravel it.
As an alchemist, Hathaway is also very familiar with anatomy, accurately finding the easiest part to unravel, and then quickly cutting open the monster's corpse.
Watching Hathaway split a complete corpse into pieces like a cow, and the internal organs were also placed next to it in different categories. The scales on the monster's body were also separated, and the entire workbench was filled with various internal organs and materials of the monster.
After unwrapping, Hathaway took out some research tools from the space bag, which resembled microscopes and other equipment, and began to analyze the materials. Seeing that Hathaway was busy, Suren couldn't bother, so he could only start searching in this ruin.
"My lord, we've found some strange contraptions. Just then, a gray dwarf came running up to report.
"Strange device? Su Lun's eyes lit up, the devices in the ruins were all left over from the Arcane Empire, and many of the techniques were still not mastered, and if he found something good to study or repair, he would probably get unimaginable benefits.
"In the basement over there. ”
Led by the Grey Dwarves, Suren came to the somewhat intact abandoned building. There is a staircase that extends downward in this building, and it is down the stairs to the basement, because it has been closed for a long time, the air in the basement is very turbid, Suren snapped his fingers and summoned two wind elements to sweep away the dust around him, and at the same time fresh air arrived.
The basement area is very large, Su Lun roughly observed, there is a football field size here, after entering here, Su Lun obviously felt that the strange energy is getting stronger and stronger, summoning a ball of light, Su Lun began to observe this strange mechanical structure in the basement, which is made of red spar mixed with a pale gold alloy.
Su Lun looked at it carefully for a while and found out? The structure of this device is not too complicated, combined with the knowledge of magic and mechanics that he has learned? Su Lun roughly judged? This is a device used to amplify the energy force field, and the enveloping area is exactly the current extent of the ruins.
"What is this device for?" Su Lun frowned. And then come to the middle of this instrument, which is not damaged? It's still working.
After going around the machine? Suren found the core of this device? After a moment's hesitation, Suren turned on the core of the device.
The enclosure of the magic device slowly opened, and a cylinder inside rose up, above the cylinder? A small piece of silvery-white metal emitting a strange energy force field appeared in front of his eyes.
"This can't be the metal that the arcanist discovered!" reacted immediately.
It was only after seeing this piece of metal that Su Lun suddenly felt that this metal seemed to be very similar to something he had learned about in his previous life.
"This can't be nuclear materials, right?" a thought suddenly popped into Su Lun's mind. Then the mind began to constantly compare, the same nuclear radiation can kill living things, can also promote the mutation of living things? However, this mutation is uncontrollable, and the mutation in this ancient ruin is artificially guided and interfered with? Suren has good reason to believe that this piece of metal is a piece of nuclear raw material.
"System, let's identify it. ”
"Ding, identification complete, the target is a high-purity metal - plutonium, this metal is highly radioactive, please be aware of the host. ”
After hearing the system's prompt tone, Su Lun's expression became very exciting. He didn't expect those arcanists to be so bold as to actually use this radioactive metal to induce mutations into living beings, and judging from the monsters living in the ruins, their experiment was obviously successful.
As for the arcanist who studied these mutated monsters everywhere, he had already died, and it was no wonder that the council elders of the Nine Rings Tower would oppose him to continue to study this radiation mutation, it was really that the uncertainty and harm of this mutation were too high, even if the physique of humans in this world was good, but if ordinary people were exposed to this radiation environment, the mortality rate would still be very high.
Of course, Suren's current physical fitness has long been immune to this radiation, and the gray dwarves and centaurs are also not affected. This metallic plutonium was discovered in the later stages of the Arcane Empire, but unlike the one the Arcanist used to induce biological mutations, the other Arcanists studied elemental fission.
It is said that this technology is to provide a stable and huge amount of energy to the Floating City, and the Floating City during the Arcane Empire period had a hurdle that could not be bypassed, that is, the Mithic Core.
This is a magical energy core, which is said to have been born in the New God period, and was crafted by some grand arcanists with the help of the power of the goddess of magic, and it can provide a constant and steady supply of huge amounts of energy.
It was also the emergence of the Miser Energy Core that made the appearance of the Floating City a reality. As the saying goes, success is also failure, and the Miser energy core has many advantages, such as continuous and stable energy, safety and efficiency, simple maintenance, huge energy and so on. Therefore, those floating cities have always used the Mithic core as the energy core.
But the Mithic core has a fatal flaw, that is, it must be linked to the magic web, only by connecting the magic net, with the power of the magic net, it will have that huge almost miracle energy, once the magic net is lost, then the energy of the Mither core will decay rapidly.
After discovering this problem, the arcanists at that time began to continue to study, and they studied two directions, one was to try artificial magic nets, and the other was to completely abandon the Mithic core, and then research and replace it with a new energy source.
In the battle between the Arcanists and the Gods, the web collapsed, but the Floating City of the Arcanists did not become an ornament, and it is clear that the Arcanists succeeded, but it is not known how far they have come. After that great war, a lot of information about the Arcanists was erased by the gods.
It is also the main material plane that the gods are most concerned about, and the power of the gods is also somewhat insufficient, which makes many materials of the Arcane Empire secretly preserved by wizards. It's just that the technologies of artificial magic nets and elemental fission still haven't left.
According to the information that has been handed down, the arcanists have entered the interstellar era, after all, they are all able to colonize the plane, and now the wizard civilization in this world has not yet stepped out of the plane, only some powerful wizards rely on their own strength to enter the astral plane and carry out some interstellar travel, on the whole, the current civilization is still far from the heyday of the arcanists.
After all, this is a transcendent world, and sometimes a person's great power can be so powerful that it destroys the world, so it is no longer a problem to say that the legendary spellcaster, if he is given time to cast a nine-ring spell, meteorite magic, and destroy a city.
Being able to enter the astral realm is at least a legend, and it is said that the danger level of the astral realm starts at level sixteen, but few people will go to the astral realm to take an adventure when they have not entered the legend, that is not an adventure, that is looking for death. If you want to explore the astral plane, you need at least a high-level legend.
Many evil gods live in the astral boundary, as well as the vast majority of ancient dragons, ancient dragons, etc., once encountered, you don't even have a chance to escape under the legend, and although the legendary strong can't beat, but it's no problem to escape, after all, leaving the material plane, although there is no protection of the plane, but the restrictions of the same plane have also been released, and a teleportation spell here is much stronger than in the material plane in terms of difficulty and distance.
Suren asked the gray dwarf to find a heavy lead box, and then put the silver-white metal inside the box. As the metal was packed into the lead box, Suren was keenly aware that the strange energy that had previously enveloped the entire ruins had completely disappeared.
Elsewhere in the ruins, as this energy field disappeared, the other creatures in the ruins sensed something, and all the mutated animals became restless.
After putting away the piece of metal, Suren didn't leave, he planned to dismantle the equipment and ship it back. Taking out a few magic crystals, Su Lun used the imaging technique to save all the images of the device, and then carefully dismantled them.
These gray dwarves are indeed good craftsmen, and although they are new to this equipment, they are very good at it, and in addition to using photogram techniques to leave video materials, these gray dwarves also make a drawing, on which all the parts are numbered. And then the parts are also recorded at that location.
After all these parts were dismantled, all the parts were carefully preserved, and then Suren put them into the storage space, but the number of these parts was still a bit too much, and the storage space could not be fitted, and finally the gray dwarves had to carry them.
