Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

Chapter 225 "Building" Gods

April 4th in the Terran calendar.

Satellite No. [-]: Under the lunar surface of "Yuhook", between the silent and dry rock formations.

A cause that can be called desecrating all intelligent life in this world is slowly advancing. The brilliance that transcends matter is blocked by things of the same quality as the soul, reflecting and reflecting in the eyes of every creature with a soul here.

Xia Lan looked at the shining light spot in the center of the crystal forest, and couldn't get back to his senses for a long time—there was an extremely familiar aura gradually brewing in it.

"It feels... like me, but there are obvious differences when you taste it carefully." He touched his chin and commented: "It's like... just like looking at yourself in a photo, even if you look at it again, you can realize it It's false."

The two beside him who were carefully checking various parameters were not as relaxed and relaxed as he was, but kept frowning, and after a few glances at each other, they began to operate various control devices at high speed.

Xia Lan noticed some changes in the energy flow in the crystal forest, and couldn't help but turn around and ask, "What's wrong?"

"There is a ten-thousandth difference between the energy consumption and our budget, and the fluctuation is still rising." Hana said in a deep voice, and then devoted herself to the adjustment.

Seeing that the two were engrossed, Xia Lan, who couldn't help much, had no choice but to keep silent, standing quietly in front of the curtain wall and looking at the virtual soul that was just like a zero-dimensional light spot in reality.

If we describe it in the spiritual vision in a more realistic way, then the "cocoon" that wraps it is an ellipsoid with a long axis of three meters and a short axis of two meters. The color of the whole body... should be regarded as "glowing gray". There are also points of light produced by energy dissipation.

And every probe in the crystal forest just touches the surface of the "cocoon", and only seven special probes can penetrate its surface, go deep into it, and "spin" the fuzzy virtual soul in it.

After watching for about ten seconds, Xia Lan gradually frowned amidst the slowing down of the operation sounds of the two beside her, and looked at them with anxious faces.

"Are you going out of control?" he asked, turning around to look at the zero-dimensional point of light that seemed to be expanding into a higher dimension.

The two did not reply.

Looking at the increasingly unstable cocoon, Xia Lan sighed and blew a light mist on the mask.

The internal environment of the soul loom is strictly required to be free of impurities, so he put on this lightweight but high-tech nano-isolation suit, which can almost isolate all harmful substances, even nuclear radiation can be completely immune.

……

At 8 minutes and 16 seconds from the first [textile], this leap forward to build a god ended in failure.

Looking at the soul star crumbs flowing slowly and falling like quicksand, Xia Lan showed a bit of excitement - if he could eat two bites, it would be a super nourishing for the soul!
Although it is possible, she will be in a coma for ten days and a half months... But after all, wealth is in danger.

"Can you give me a whole bottle of refined soul material before I leave?" he asked.

Heimdall, who looked down at the information report, replied without any surprise: "Of course, those things are not precious to us."

……

After half an hour of adding definition, calculating again, and preparing again, a new round of knitting begins again.

"Second run ready, three...two...one, start!"

After counting down the numbers that no one paid attention to, Heimdall started the soul loom.

Accompanied by a heart-shattering impact, countless bright starlight flashed across the huge crystal forest, hitting the center of multiple probes like a reverse explosion, shaking out the chaotic light and shadow in the sky .

After countless crystal floating substances swept away, these by-products were cleaned away, and the soul loom that was originally illuminated fell into the original dark and silent state, leaving only the most central place in the modern physical meaning of Terra. A point of light with no volume on it.

"Even if I have seen it once, I still feel so shocked." Xia Lan couldn't help sighing, looking at the ignorant soul that was being woven into shape with burning eyes.

At present, he can't feel any difference from before. Perhaps he can only understand the adjustments they made to it by touching it carefully and comprehending it - but that is obviously not allowed by them, and it is also completely dangerous.

After standing for a while, Xia Lan seemed to be still in a stable state. She scratched her scalp through the helmet, sat on a chair beside her, and leaned there quietly watching the strange scene outside the porthole.

……

【02】weaving experiment, at 10 minutes and 27 seconds, a data anomaly report lights up on the projection screen.

Almost only five or six seconds later, Xia Lan, who was looking at Heimdall and the other two, sensed the abnormal fluctuations from the "cocoon", got up and walked to the porthole.

"It seems that there are still some problems." He sighed silently in his heart, listening to the instructions quickly entered by the two people around him, watching the flickering soul loom, and silently watching the fuzzy substance that can't even be called a soul. Aggregate, watching its demise.

This tug of war lasted for more than three minutes, and it still ended in the failure of human beings.

Contrary to Xia Lan's expectations, the atmosphere in the control center was quite serious - he thought Heimdall and the two would experiment again after adjustments, after all, failures are common.

"Uh... it seems that the problem is quite big?"

Seeing that the two were silent and doing nothing, Xia Lan asked cautiously, "Do you need help?"

Heimdall and Henna looked at each other, then looked at him again, and then returned to the console without saying a word, tapping the keyboard to input a large series of characters.

A few seconds later, extremely weak fluctuations came from the porthole, and Xia Lan turned around and saw a white light spot that was completely different from before. It was extremely stable under the mental vision, and contained a vague gray figure...

"You can rub a virtual soul at once?!" He widened his eyes and screamed strangely.

"Well, this is the standard plan." Hana said softly, and entered the uninstall command on the panel.

After a burst of faint flickering, the virtual soul exploded into stardust, but these stardust were far less than one percent of the concentration when the [02] weaving experiment was terminated just now.

The stardust quickly dissipated, and Hana entered another series of instructions.

This time it was a more obvious shock wave, which illuminated the area where the weaving probe was located, and then quickly dimmed. After flickering for five or six seconds, it fell into a calm state, and Xia Lan saw it dazzled The virtual soul wrapped in it.

"This is a relatively stable virtual soul with the highest load capacity that we can produce now." Hana said, destroying it again.

"The difficulty of making virtual souls based on your soul is thousands of times that of making them."

Xia Lan keenly noticed the details in her words—she had always used data-based descriptions, but now she used very vague descriptions like "thousand times and thousands of times", which is enough to prove that she has no idea about it at all. grasp.

"So what can I do?" he asked.

Heimdall shook his head slightly and said, "Actually, we still don't know how to use your power, and we don't know anything about it."

"What you can do now... is to wait, and we will give you an answer." Hana said solemnly.

"Okay." He nodded helplessly and chose to leave here.

……

Sitting in the lift and returning to the ecological park, Xia Lan let out a long breath of turbid air as she looked at the green and bright sky outside the window, feeling a little worried in her heart.

If it is really impossible to complete the imitation of his soul, it will definitely be a very big blow to the two former civilizations. Not only will it make them feel desperate, but it is more likely that there will be some bad things on the return journey. question--

——When he first requested to return, Heimdall actually reminded them that if there were only a group of them, they would probably be detected by "it" eyes and ears. The problem of not dying anymore.

But if Heimdall and the others took the initiative to attack "it", there would be a chance to attract its attention, allowing Xia Lan and the others to avoid its eyes and ears and reach the land of Terra safely.

That is, a grasshopper on a rope.

He came to the dismantling platform, opened his arms, and then countless mechanical arms stretched out from all directions, and the insulating suits that passed by melted away as if being swallowed, and soon there was nothing left.

"The nano-robot material is convenient." He couldn't help but sighed, walked out of the separation room, came to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looked at this beautiful ecological park with mountains and water, squinted his eyes slightly, squeezed out the telescope out of thin air, and saw Si Katie and the Ghost Shark.

They seemed to be cooking up some delicacies again, but from a distance it seemed to be some kind of dark cuisine, Xia Lan took a second look and decided not to join in the fun.

After admiring the two busy beauties for a moment, a sound of footsteps caught Xia Lan's attention.

When the man walked past the corner of the corridor, the face under the mask made Xia Lan raise her eyebrows slightly.

"Yo, Lin Nan, I haven't seen you for a few days, come out to relax?" He raised his hand in greeting.

Lin Nan, who seemed to be thinking about something to study, raised his head slightly, noticed Xia Lan standing by the window, and immediately walked over subconsciously, saying hello, "Mr. Xia Lan."

Although it seemed strange to be called Mr. by an old scholar who was 30 years older than herself, Xia Lan still accepted this title at their request, and won their support by virtue of her inhuman identity and status.

"I saw your frowning face just now, did you encounter any difficulties in the research of ore disease?" He asked with a correct attitude.

Having been called Mr. by the old man, he inevitably felt a little restrained and couldn't relax as usual.

Lin Nan sighed slightly and explained: "We have recently produced a series of chemical pharmaceutical preparations, which can affect the human soul by affecting the physiological phenomena of the human body, thereby curbing the interaction between the ore disease and the soul, and finally achieving a significant reduction in the spread of the ore disease. The effect of speed..."

Xia Lan raised her eyebrows slightly. Seeing that he didn't mean to interrupt, Lin Nan continued: "But this kind of potion is too difficult to make. There is no such advanced equipment on Terra Continent, so the centrifuge needed is far more than that. We already have the equipment, which means that it is almost impossible to reproduce it.”

As he spoke, he opened the projection panel with ease, dug out the minimum manufacturing requirements, and handed it to Xia Lan.

Xia Lan, as a superman who visits the medical department when she has nothing to do, and can make crude ore disease inhibitors for emergency use as long as she has the materials at hand, naturally can understand these data, and immediately showed a very surprised expression.

Lin Nan, who noticed his slight expression, paused, then put his shoulder on his shoulder in surprise, and asked, "Do you know where there is such an advanced centrifuge?!"

After reacting, he paused, carefully withdrew his hand, and then got a reply from Xia Lan: "Well, I know that an organization has enough centrifuges with this data, and there is not much difference between other production equipment. 5.00% requirements can be reproduced."

Hearing this affirmative answer, Lin Nan was shocked immediately, and said excitedly: "Then I will optimize the production process, let alone 5.00%, even [-]% can do it!"

Seeing the old bachelor running away in a hurry, Xia Lan shook her head helplessly, thinking about the idea of ​​using those pharmaceutical equipment in the high-level Rhode Island area.

According to Kelsey, those things came from the former civilization, and they were the last equipment manufactured with the characteristics of the origin stone before their destruction, which can avoid the detection of "it" like Rhodes Island.

Although the effect is basically far inferior to the peak creations of the previous civilization, it can still easily crush the most cutting-edge equipment on this land.

And as their lower-level simplifications—most of the pharmaceutical equipment currently in use in Rhodes Island, they have established Rhodes Island's leading position in the ore disease treatment industry.

If it weren't for the fact that the headquarters didn't occupy an excellent position in a big city, and didn't sign a formal power cooperation contract with developed countries, Rhodes Island would have soared into the sky and become the absolute leader in the true sense.

However, if the deed of sale is signed, Rhodes Island will naturally not be as free and independent as it is now.

……

In the evening of that day, Xia Lan went to see the experiment conducted by Heimdall and the others again, but she got a reply that it was still under research.

He then turned back to the Institute of Ore Diseases, and when he entered the door, he saw that Kaido was conducting a drug test on himself. He sighed and felt a little awed at the same time, and then he proposed an idea that was almost a timely help for the two of them. ——Resuscitate those mercenaries who are in deep sleep and let them conduct experiments.

Under the premise of not endangering life, not causing great pain, not seriously violating ethics, etc., Henna approved this human experiment that skipped animal testing.

The ore disease research institute, which was originally deserted and quiet, suddenly became lively.

There are even several mercenaries asking Kaido and Lin Nan to increase the frequency of testing and speed up their research progress. As for the reasons... just like the reasons for becoming mercenaries, there are many reasons, countless, Ask endlessly.

But the only thing that can be confirmed is that just like embarking on this journey that may never return, more than half of them are not self-made.

In addition, there is another gratifying news-they found another scholar with a wealth of originium research knowledge among this group of heavily armed mercenaries, his ability is even better than the two Bits are more than enough.

Asking the reason... probably because of lack of money, and because I offended the leader, I was squeezed out, rumored, blocked, and refused to cooperate with many well-known companies.

Sad, sigh.

But fortunately, compared to Xia Lan's previous life, which seemed to be heading towards the end of cyberpunk, a man on this land was enough to shake a tree, and he was the warrior with the talent for fighting.

(The world of the previous life is purely fictional, like, but not the real earth. If there is any ambiguity, the right of interpretation belongs to the author.)
All in all, that's it. Three scholars, ten ore patients and mercenaries, plus a mysterious leader who often came to inspect, started the research on ore disease here.

As for Xia Lan, she eats, sleeps, sleeps and strolls, and then touches fish, eats big meals, and is happy like a fairy. She just occasionally goes to the soul cradle to measure the soul data, and finds new definitions for them to build virtual souls. .
