Chapter 210 The Magical Use of Purgatory Core
On the Baiquan side, after he boarded the shuttle boat.
Someone immediately came up and held his arm, holding a small steel knife and scratching Bai Quan's hand that had just touched Chen Ming's shoulder. At the same time, he said: "The pupils, fingerprints, and voiceprints have all been compared and confirmed to be Chen Ming's." Myself.”
"The skin fragment tissue has now been obtained, and gene comparison can be carried out soon. If the genetic results are ok, then there is indeed no problem."
"It's just that my psychic powers have already been used. Is it still necessary to check?"
Bai Quan shook his head.
Of course he knew there was no need to check.
It was just the feeling he had before, that Chen Ming in front of him didn't look like Chen Ming, that made him make this decision.
Although judging from the actual contact just now, Chen Ming is indeed Chen Ming, and the result has been determined.
But for some reason, he still felt that there was something wrong with Chen Ming's behavior.
Bai Quan shook his head again, temporarily letting go of his entanglement on this issue.
Anyway, Chen Ming is already here. If anything happens, you can slowly find a chance to deal with it later.
Early the next morning.
Bai Quan took the shuttle boat and landed on Chen Ming's dome.
And soon found Chen Ming, who was studying the core of purgatory in the laboratory with the equipment he made yesterday.
As soon as he came up, he said to Chen Ming: "There is bad news. Our volcanic planet is now entering a period of periodic geological activity."
"Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes will become more frequent, and the dome may also be damaged. If there is an accident, you can hide underground in the laboratory."
Chen Ming knew that the underground floor of the laboratory was still a laboratory, while the second underground floor was a pure refuge center.
Almost all domes built on similar extreme planets will have such a design to protect the safety of the personnel inside and facilitate subsequent rescue in the event of an accident.
And Chen Ming also knew that something was wrong outside the dome today.
When he got up during the day and walked from the dormitory building to the laboratory, he could see that the environment outside was even worse than yesterday.
Not only is the visibility reduced, but the activity of the magma is increased.
From time to time, Chen Ming could still see red lights rising into the sky outside. The dome was also hit by splashing magma from time to time, but fortunately, the dome seemed to have no problem.
This is the manifestation of a geologically active period.
So when Bai Quan told the specific situation, Chen Ming directly asked: "Then you are still coming?"
Bai Quan still had a calm look on his face and said: "It's okay, it's just that the geological activities have become a little more frequent. You'll get used to it."
"Under normal circumstances, the safety of the dome can be guaranteed. Don't worry too much. I just want to remind you that if there is an accident, you won't know what to do."
Chen Ming nodded, put down the glowing red Purgatory Core and said, "Then it's still normal teaching today, right?
"Yes, that's it. I've brought all the necessary information."
Bai Quan shook the terminal in his hand that Chen Ming had given him.
Chen Ming didn't say much, and took Bai Quan to a rare room in the laboratory that was equipped with some basic equipment.
Before the class officially started, Chen Ming said to Bai Quan: "I have something to tell you now. Didn't you send me an equipment list yesterday?"
"Yes, they are all equipment that will be sent to you. Do you want to add new equipment?"
Chen Ming denied: "I don't need new equipment for the time being. I just need some equipment on the list to be shipped quickly. Then there are a few pieces of equipment that have to be delivered first. The sooner the better."
"Which ones?"
Chen Ming resent the list Bai Quan sent him, and he checked some items on it.
In addition to equipment, he also needs some additional materials.
Bai Quan muttered the name of the equipment Chen Ming checked in a low voice: "High-precision thermometer, temperature and pressure stabilizer, temperature conduit, large constant temperature repeater, and thermal insulation materials."
At first glance, it is obvious that this thing is related to the research on the core of Purgatory, so it must not be delayed.
"Okay, I will help you arrange it now."
Bai Quan took out another terminal and asked Chen Ming while contacting the person: "Is there anything else?"
"There's no rush at the moment, just give priority to these."
"Okay."
Bai Quan quickly put down the terminal and said: "It has been arranged, let's start normally."
Chen Ming nodded, sat down and looked at Bai Quan.
The morning lecture quickly ended normally, and at the end, another shuttle boat landed on Chen Ming's dome.
Coming down from the top was the instructor assigned by Bai Quan to Chen Ming.
Responsible for Chen Ming’s afternoon teaching.
The instructor has a very ordinary face and a very ordinary name.
He was conscientious in class, but his level seemed to be a little behind Bai Quan's.
However, Chen Ming was thinking too much about having someone with Bai Quan's level as his instructor.
Anyway, it's not a big problem.
The instructor in the afternoon was to help him supplement some theoretical knowledge.
There is also the knowledge of large-scale battlefields that he needs to learn more recently.
Of course, it is just basic knowledge and does not include any actual combat command and other knowledge.
So it doesn’t matter if the level of education is less than clear.
To really learn command, you still have to learn from Bai Quan.
Time soon came to night.
Chen Ming did not review and consolidate the content during the day as usual today,
Even though the difficulty of the content taught by Baiquan has gradually become abstract recently, the basic knowledge of large-scale wars and front lines in the afternoon is also relatively complicated.
Chen Ming did not choose to review, but directly took the equipment and materials that he had specially asked Bai Quan to speed up during the day to the laboratory.
He wants to continue the research he left unfinished yesterday.
Because he saw some potential from this research that he had not discovered before.
In fact, at the beginning, Chen Ming only regarded the research on the core of Purgatory as an ordinary task.
But yesterday, Chen Ming became familiar with the situation of the dome and completely controlled the dome.
And after completing the experiment of connecting a simple ordinary power system to the core of Purgatory in the laboratory, he discovered a strange place.
It is his spiritual energy itself that allows him to master the method of controlling mechanical equipment. Of course, he can master it according to the function of the equipment itself.
There will be no effect of mastering more than the ability to use the device.
For example, there was an electromagnetic gun in front of him that Chen Ming had never used before. As long as he used his spiritual power to control it, he would be able to master the technology of using the electromagnetic gun.
Not only can he use his psychic energy directly, he can also directly operate the electromagnetic gun himself.
But if Chen Ming wants this electromagnetic gun to walk on the ground, he can only use psychic energy to modify a pair of mechanical legs.
The electromagnetic gun is no longer the original electromagnetic gun, and the various equipment he modified are not the original equipment either.
In other words, Chen Ming's psychic power cannot do things beyond the functions of the mechanical equipment itself, and it can only be achieved through transformation.
Chen Ming's original understanding of the Purgatory Core is the core component of the Purgatory Demon King. It is matched with the Purgatory Demon King and has no other functions.
And he himself does not have the ability to transform the core of Purgatory.
Therefore, Chen Ming had always believed that the Purgatory Core could only be used in conjunction with the Demon King.
Even after getting the purgatory core given by Bai Quan, his research was in this direction.
What he has to do is help analyze the core effects and sort out the functions into a version that others can understand.
The actual modifications and further applications should be left to others.
Since cryogenic computing engines can be used on a large scale in the empire, it means that there is always someone studying the technology of another civilization, and they must be more powerful than him.
He just needs to figure out the principles and then assign the task to the right person.
But now.
After yesterday, Chen Ming relied on some hand-rubbed equipment to conduct a rough test that he would never do.
He found that the situation in the core of purgatory seemed to be a little different from what he thought.
When he used spiritual energy to directly control the core that was removed from the Demon King.
He found that a new function appeared on the core, or a new module, an independent running module.
And the reason for this new independent module.
After the core is disassembled, its internal structure will deflect and create a new structure.
It is not a module used to support the Purgatory Demon King, but it can directly call the basic functions of the Purgatory core.
So what does it come with?
Chen Ming already had a guess in his mind.
So he increased his efforts in researching the core of Purgatory yesterday.
However, yesterday's time was obviously not enough for research, and the laboratory equipment was completely insufficient.
Chen Ming is not outrageous enough to master the licensing methods of all research equipment, so he can only wait for Baiquan to send some important equipment.
That was the device he asked Bai Quan to deliver during the day.
Today, he had to figure out the reason for the core situation.
Chen Ming's spiritual energy once again took over the Purgatory Core, penetrating every corner of the Purgatory Core.
If the situation is really what he thinks, the Purgatory Core should bring him some surprises.
the next day.
Bai Quan came to the laboratory like yesterday and saw Chen Ming, who was also studying the core of purgatory.
After saying hello, he asked Chen Ming: "How is the situation?"
Chen Ming's face was a little anxious, but his eyes were still fixed on the core of purgatory. He said without raising his head: "I studied until late at night yesterday, and I did make some interesting discoveries."
"But I still need time and some equipment. There are equipment not on the list and some on the list that I need you to send quickly."
Chen Ming reached out and clicked a few times on the terminal next to him, then sent the list to Bai Quan.
Several research equipment related to the Purgatory Core were checked again on the list, and a few more things were added by Chen Ming himself.
Bai Quan took a look and said: "Two types of thermal insulation coating materials, a device that can cool down extremely quickly, and a high-intensity temperature detector that can operate in extreme environments."
Chen Ming was not surprised that Bai Quan knew what he needed. These were materials and equipment commonly used in the manufacturing process of spacecraft engine nozzle components.
Bai Quan checked for a while and then said: "No problem, I can arrange a batch for you right away. Is there anything else you need?"
Bai Quan's question reminded Chen Ming of his previous thoughts and said, "My place is a bit deserted. Are there any small animals I can raise?"
"Well...we have a special breeding farm..."
Chen Ming raised his head unexpectedly and asked: "A breeding farm?
"Otherwise, where do you think the meat and vegetables in the cold storage in your dormitory building come from?" Chen Ming lowered his head again and asked, "Isn't it packaged survival food?"
"Of course there are packaged survival foods, but they are not for eating at times like this."
"Of course we must supply fresh food to the army in normal times, which has an impact on the morale of the entire army."
"And the main reason is that the transportation cost of the volcanic planet is high, and the regular transportation of meat and vegetables that are difficult to preserve fresh for a long time is too expensive."
"Although the cost of building a complete recycling system for farmland and breeding farms is also very high, it is a one-time investment and can always be harvested. I will definitely choose this."
Chen Ming had some questions and said: "I remember that the military in the previous sector was quite corrupt. Is this kind of facility still maintained?"
"It is maintained, but only partially, to provide fresh food to the local military's top brass."
“The entire facility was mainly rebuilt after I took over, and it was also partially expanded.”
"Ahem... I'm going too far. What pet do you want?"
"The animals I breed there are all improved breeds with high meat yields, short growth cycles, and short lifespans. They are not suitable as pets."
"If you really need it, you can just tell me and I will help you arrange it and bring it from other places."
The anxiety on Chen Ming's face due to the unsatisfactory progress of the experiment eased a little. He suddenly turned to look at Bai Quan and asked, "Anything is fine?"
Bai Quan quickly went through common pets in his mind, even strange pets like spiders and scorpions, and finally said: "Everything should be fine."
"I want the Aurora Wind Spirit, the giant butterfly that can create auroras."
"?"
"Do you want to keep butterflies that live in the atmosphere in a dome?"
Chen Ming said: "I heard that the larvae of Aurora Wind Spirit live on the ground and will emerge as pupae after three or four years of growth."
"After it emerges, it will continue to live at low altitude for about a year. During this time, its size will soar to the point where it can fly into the atmosphere. I should be able to raise it for a few years, right?"
Bai Quan's face was still full of confusion and asked; "How come you know so much about this thing?"
Of course Chen Ming understands.
Because this Aurora Wind Spirit was one of the creatures he had originally planned to feed to the Insect Queen.
Behind the natural phenomenon that produces beautiful auroras are terrifying creatures that can control plasma.
It is simply the best source of genes for the insect queen.
But precisely because it can control plasma, it is very difficult to capture the Aurora Wind Spirit.
This is not the key point. The key point is that the Aurora Wind Spirit only exists on one planet in the prosperous star field of the empire, and the empire has also established an ecological protection zone.
It's impossible to get it through normal means.
But Baiquan's side is obviously not a normal way.
After thinking for a moment, he picked up the terminal and called someone.
Finally, he turned to Chen Ming and said: "Aurora Wind Spirit can do it, but we can only get its eggs or newly hatched larvae. Don't think about it as an adult."
Just because the plasma generated by the Aurora Wind Spirit could damage the dome, it was impossible for Baiquan to support Chen Ming.
"The larvae will do, too."
"That's it, I'll make the arrangements, but let's make it clear first that the ecological environment of the dome is not suitable for the Aurora Wind Spirit, and you will most likely feed it to death."
"It's okay, I won't want a second one if you feed it to death."
Chen Ming didn't care whether Aurora Wind Spirit died or not. He just wanted to feed the Queen the worms.
If it wasn't so easy to survive, it would be hard for him to find an excuse for Aurora Wind Spirit to die.
Anyway, the insect queen has metamorphosed to the point where it can express the genes it has devoured directly through its consciousness from a body that has no new genes at all.
As long as the queen can separate some tissue to eat the larvae sent by Baiquan.
The rest is easy to say.
Bai Quan was slightly relieved that Chen Ming didn't ask for too much.
After the two of them arrived in the classroom, Bai Quan suddenly said: "By the way, some people from the think tank asked me to ask you a question. What happened to the conjectures they raised before?"
Chen Ming was stunned for a moment and said: "Are they still paying attention to me? I thought they were just a one-time think tank you hired."
"Of course it's not a one-time thing, but if you don't need it, I can let them do other things."
"Then I still want them,"
After all, the think tank directly discovered the huge potential of his psychic ability and the machine race to build a hive mind network of the machine race through what he said at the meeting and a few casual introductions to his psychic powers. .
The think tank's logical thinking ability, divergent thinking ability and association ability are really exaggerated. Maybe there will be some performance in the future?
Therefore, Chen Ming does not want to reject the existence of the think tank now.
"They didn't show up two days before I came here. I thought it was because you didn't make arrangements."
Bai Quan explained with some helplessness: "I am actually making arrangements, but their continuous transfer of personnel will take time."
"Originally, they have just joined the think tank, their identities have just been transferred from other departments, and then they have to transfer to you. This always takes time."
"They'll be here in two days, it won't take long."
"Alright."
After understanding the situation, Chen Ming said: "Then wait until they come over."
"Well, let's start class."
The day passed in a blink of an eye.
Night comes again.
Chen Ming still came to the laboratory.
Yesterday, he basically analyzed the special internal structure of the Purgatory Core.
It is a semi-independent nested structure.
The same components can be used in different modules to perform different functions.
Although the two functions cannot be used at the same time, this design does achieve the most functions with the least materials and the smallest space.
Chen Ming couldn't understand the key design related to psychic energy inside the purgatory core.
But the core design, this special pure structural design, can still be understood and mastered.
But Chen Ming's focus is not on this now.
What he wants to find out most now is the effect that the other layer of Purgatory Core can use under his spiritual control.
Chen Ming lowered his head and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the research on the core of Purgatory.
When Chen Ming raised his head next time.
The time has reached late at night like yesterday.
A smile and a trace of regret appeared on Chen Ming's face.
Although the research has not yet completely succeeded, he is very close.
There's just one last step left.
It's a pity that this last step can't be completed yet, so he can only rest first.
It's dawn again.
Another day of teaching.
Another day, Bai Quan opened the door of the laboratory and saw Chen Ming standing in front of the laboratory equipment.
Bai Quan greeted Chen Ming as usual, and at the same time sent a list of personnel to Chen Ming on the terminal.
Chen Ming turned his head slightly, glanced at the terminal and asked, "What is this?"
"This is a list of the researchers who came to the Gallo Star Territory. There are two lists. One is for those who came to see it and then left, and the other is for those who are willing to stay and be your assistant."
Chen Ming didn't click to read, but asked directly: "How many people?"
"The total number of people who came is more than 1,200, and the number of people who are willing to stay is about 500."
Chen Ming's hand suddenly stopped and he said: "So many?"
But Chen Ming had previously thought that the number of assistants would be around fifty. If there were more, it would be difficult for him to manage.
After all, he has no experience in managing too many people, and these fifty are almost the limit.
"It's just that there are so many people who are willing, but it doesn't mean that you have to keep so many people. If you choose the people you think are useful, won't it end?"
"Same."
Chen Ming was relieved and let go of the Purgatory Core.
He opened the list and selected people to serve as his assistants.
When Chen Ming returned the selected personnel list to Bai Quan, Bai Quan said to him: "People should be able to arrive tomorrow. After the effect of your psychic energy on the machine race and the experimental verification are completed, who should leave and who should stay?" ”
"And the five think tanks will come to you tomorrow together with others."
Chen Ming and Bai Quan didn't chat for too long about trivial matters.
The day of teaching started normally.
Time professionally came to night.
Chen Ming had just seen off the instructor when he received something from Bai Quan.
During the day today, he also asked for some equipment from Bai Quan. Although it took a while, it was finally here.
Chen Ming brought the equipment to the laboratory.
The regrets of yesterday were completely gone because he knew he would achieve his goal soon.
Chen Ming tightened his grip and held the delicate equipment in his hand, a miniature antimatter reactor that Chen Ming had seen before.
This is the equipment that Chen Baitian and Bai Quan want.
This reactor will be able to play its role immediately.
Chen Ming's research process yesterday was much smoother than the day before yesterday.
It was basically confirmed that his guess was correct.
Chen Ming has now completely mastered the method of using spiritual energy to directly activate the core of purgatory.
Instead of the original normal one, he had already used spiritual energy to master it, by using the matching system of the Purgatory Demon King to activate the Purgatory Core and then use the core.
This is equivalent to skipping the repeater of the Purgatory Demon King, and letting Chen Ming directly use the Purgatory Core himself.
Chen Ming himself controls the entropy increase and entropy stability of the entire environment by controlling the core of purgatory through spiritual energy.
Now, he's going to the final step of the experiment, the actual test.
That's why he needs an antimatter reactor to completely activate this purgatory core.
Chen Ming took the Purgatory Core and the Antimatter Reactor and connected them with the relay device he had just made, thus plugging an energy source into the Purgatory Core.
Just when Chen Ming was about to start the test, the terminal next to him suddenly rang.
Bai Quan made a phone call late at night.
