Will Beast Ear Girl Encounter Alien Ranch Story?

But no matter what it is, the final university exam, you can't pass the exam or you can't pass the exam, because it is not based on how many people take the exam, the number of people or the proportion of admission, but how many high-level talents need to be cultivated. The number of admitted students, and the score line is based on the benchmark quality of the talents in demand.

It is not uncommon for the number of new students to be less than 3 digits, but it is not a rare phenomenon. The number of new students is about 200. It is the most rare case. More than 300 people are as rare as less than 10 people. The rarest thing is that there are individual universities There have been tragedies in which no one passed the exam.

And such tragedies basically occur in universities such as the School of Space Physics. To put it bluntly, what they need is the Hawking and Einstein of the future, and there must be dozens of them who fail to meet this standard Just stop wasting resources.

Compulsory education for normal people ends in high school, and although the subsequent university education is paid for by the Star Alliance Council for free to the entire Star Alliance community, this free is based on investment in the future, and you cannot reach the level of investment. The lower limit is not enough to go to college.

In addition, there is also a special kind of university that is similar to a preparatory course or a junior college, with a 3-year system, which is used to allow students after high school to further their studies, and also recruits adult students for the society, with lower scores and requirements, but tuition fees It is at your own expense.

If you really want to enter a real university, then you can consider taking these colleges. In that case, the chances will be much higher, provided that you don't go to those subjects that are too cutting-edge.

Among them, liberal arts universities and preparatory courses are the least difficult, engineering courses are rare to explode at the beginning, and if pure science courses are the most cutting-edge science majors...don't go to shame yourself if you don't have Einstein's IQ.

Because of this kind of educational characteristics, Xia Lin, who is a serious undergraduate majoring in alien colonization and development, although due to the high demand for talents in this major, the score line is the bottom of the undergraduate and the gold content is slightly low, but it also means that his overall quality is Destroyed more than 90% of the peers of the Star Alliance.

Mental quality, hands-on ability, physical fitness, adaptability, judgment and learning ability, all have to kill more than 90% of their peers, plus solid theory and hands-on skills to get in a position close to the bottom of the list.

Although the salary is only 3500 a month as an agricultural technician, this job is indeed promising in the future. See if the agricultural director of the colony with more than a dozen crickets can afford tea native to the earth, and you will know whether this thing is "" The future can be expected."

However, even such a high-end talent is still sweating profusely when faced with the drone programming algorithm that has been lost for almost ten years. He still remembers the algorithm of agricultural drones, and he will fix it if there is a program failure. , and even make corresponding improvements.

But those algorithms are based on the corresponding hardware. To adapt to a low-end general-purpose drone’s chip and control group, and write the flight control program and working program separately, it cannot be said that it cannot be done, but the difficulty is also high. .

As for Yelena, don't even think about it. The textbooks she is reading now and what Xia Lin took time to teach are almost the enlightenment knowledge of the Star Alliance kindergarten level, and since there are no symbionts and implants for automatic translation, it is only teaching the majors of the Star Alliance. It took almost two months for Xia Lin to speak the language.

Otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to understand the codes displayed on her wrist terminal and the parameter descriptions of various briefings. The difference between the daily conversational language of the Star Alliance and the professional language is as if you are level [-] in English, but you still can't understand the C language. It's useless.

There is no problem with daily communication because Xia Lin has a language translation module. As long as she is not whispering to the ancient gods, she can understand and talk to her in her native language, but learning the textbooks and various necessary knowledge of the Star Alliance is not enough. up.

The simple operation and disassembly maintenance part can also be taught through pictures and picture books translated into Ursus characters, but the pile of professional instructions and maintenance manuals will not work, there will be ambiguity, and you can’t find many terms and vocabulary at all Lexical correspondence of the Ursus language.

The most typical is the word "jump", which Yelena can only understand as "leap" and "leap", so she has never been able to understand what Xia Lin meant by the leap engine.

"It seems that I also have to find time to dig out the textbooks and put them back into the furnace." Xia Lin sighed, and then looked at the origin stone motivation that Yelena brought back. The White Rabbit did not hide her disgust and dislike for these things at all.

The Originium motive is a great invention, for civilization, but for the Infected and her, it is the origin of tragedy.Although there were infected people and ore diseases before the origin stone motivation, human beings are also using the origin stone power, but the amount of magic potion boiled in the witch's cauldron of the handicraft level and the power consumption of modern industry are two concepts. .

And this has created a demand for more origin stones than any period in history, and the huge demand for origin stones requires a large number of cheap miners and a series of workers. Even without social system problems, such frequent contact and The use of refined source stones will cause ore disease to enter a high-incidence stage, creating far more infected people than any other period in history.

Rationally, Yelena knew that the machines could not be blamed for this matter. The machines were just tools without self, and it was also the origin stone motive that allowed Ursus to live in the snowfields and even the wilderness in the north, so that humans would not have to worry about natural disasters all day long.

The origin stone motive made large-scale mobile cities possible, and also brought human civilization into an era of rapid advancement. This change is like the industrial revolution for human beings on earth. Although the industrial revolution triggered the fall of the crown, produced a world war, and shaped the capitalist class , also created the most tragic class - the proletariat.

However, it is inevitable after all. There is nothing wrong with industry and machinery itself, but human greed and short-sightedness make it a sharp weapon of killing and a tool of oppression.

However, as an infected person, as a girl who grew up in a mine, saw how countless ordinary exiles became infected miners, and saw how infected miners were abused, tortured and killed by guards, Yelena was emotionally He did not hide or suppress his dislike and disgust for these Originium machines.

Especially after seeing the "safe" and "harmless" machines on Xia Rin's side, this kind of disgust and disgust is almost beyond words, and Xia Rin also knows this, he does not intend to use pale language and preaching to change her mind.

This is the philosophy of the Covenanters. The war that ended more than ten years ago taught all living humans a truth. Words cannot impress a group of cold-blooded lizards, and public opinion cannot stop falling star bombs. Negotiations can only bring Standing on the sidelines and cynicism—in the starry sky, weakness is the only original sin!

Therefore, regarding how to change Yelena's aversion to Origin Stone and Origin Stone power, she must be moved by actual evidence and facts, rather than empty words. Xia Lin decided to take some time to study the principles of these Origin Stone power, There is also the issue of the origin stone being used as fuel.

If he can solve some of the problems, he can use actual evidence to convince Yelena that although the source stone power is not perfect at the beginning, it can be gradually improved. It may be an inevitable evil of civilization at the beginning, but it will eventually Metamorphose into something better.

Still the same sentence, words can't impress those alien bastards, but a jump missile equipped with a 1 million-ton equivalent superfusion warhead can, and preaching can't change Yelena's opinion, a motive that won't produce Originium pollution can. .

To be honest, Xia Lin is also very interested in this thing. If it can be used as a motor, it can be used to generate electricity. Being able to drive such a large mobile trading station means that the output power of this thing is not much smaller than that of a "portable reactor".

Chapter 24 Let me think about it~

In the tool workshop, a source stone motor that is said to be a common model was placed on the dismantling table. As a product of non-Star Alliance technology, the automatic dismantling equipment could not work, and Xia Lin could only dismantle it manually.

The biggest impression that this engine gave him was that it felt very similar to the nuclear-powered engine of the Star Alliance. There was no fuel tank and no fuel filling port. Instead, there was a fuel rod with a handle in the center.

Xia Lin first had a preliminary understanding of it according to the normal maintenance and use methods. For the safety of Yelena and himself, he put on a thick three-proof clothing for both of them. can block.

"I'm starting, step back a little bit." Xia Lin asked the white rabbit who moved a small bench to stand on it to move a little distance away, reached out to hold the handle in the center, and began to pull it out.

The entire shape of the origin stone engine is similar to an irregular cylinder, like the oldest piston engine, with a raised transmission module on the arc, which outputs the power in the form of mechanical movement.

The center of the cylinder is the location of the fuel rod, which means that the Originium engine does not need a refueling port, nor does it need a fuel tank. Of course, a large Originium engine still needs a water tank. After all, no matter what kind of energy it is powered by, as long as it has not been destroyed Thermodynamics requires heat, and heat requires coolant.

Xia Lin pulled out the fuel rod, and found that it was something like a revolver cylinder, surrounded by four processed dark golden pillars of origin stone fuel around the central axis.

"Origin stone particles, ketone compounds, metal wires that transmit certain triggering energy, and glycol compounds should be chemical substances used to react with origin stones to do work... Well, it looks like a high-tech Like briquettes."

Origin stone is an ultra-high-density energy material. Xia Lin did a simple test and found that its energy release speed is very fast. The unknown elements that make up the source stone particle molecules will dissociate within a few milliseconds and release a huge amount of energy.

However, it is very stable, under normal circumstances it will only produce a weak stream of radiation particles, and this stream of radiation particles containing the elemental particles of the origin stone may be the source of some infected people who inexplicably become ore disease.

It is only triggered to release energy in a series of complicated and tedious ways, and in another more complicated way, it can also produce some kind of conduction effect like field resonance, so as to continuously absorb heat from a single heat source , showing a sharp drop in temperature.

Based on this complex quantum field effect, with Xia Lin's skills and knowledge, she can only make simple judgments and guesses on the application. As for further research, don't even think about it. The equipment on hand is not enough, and her level is not good enough.

"Honeycomb?" Yelena poked her head to see what Xia Lin was talking about, but found that he was talking about the origin stone fuel in her hand, "Isn't this origin stone fuel?"

"Yeah, I mean its composition is similar to that of briquette." In order to save the use of coal and to alleviate the problem of coal burning too fast, briquette will be mixed with cinder and yellow mud in proportion to achieve longer combustion Time and moderate heat dissipation, acceptable and economical for domestic heat sources.

"So I guess this kind of fuel rod is also a design product of this idea, um~" After Xia Lin roughly explained what briquettes are, she held the fuel rod in one hand, and rubbed the white rabbit's cheek with the other through the hat of the protective suit. head.

Even after a thick layer of barrier, the rabbit ears are still a bit addictive to rub, but the little girl’s expression is a little confused, and the rabbit ears are more sensitive. Although it is not as close to X harassment as some ethnic groups, it is also similar to For the feeling of being tickled.

"The local level of craftsmanship is not low. This is good news, but also bad news." That means that the force of the locals may not be too low. Although the principle of this thing is the principle of honeycomb coal, some seemingly simple Things can only be born on the basis of more complex technology.

Xia Lin put the origin stone fuel rod aside, picked up the flashlight and carefully illuminated the structure inside the gap, "It doesn't look like a combustion chamber or a reaction chamber, and the usage seems to be different from what I thought." He thought it was something similar Like a battery or a reactor, the reaction starts immediately after insertion, releasing heat or electricity, and even generating a force field to release kinetic energy.

It turned out that this was obviously just a place like a bullet chamber, and the reaction chamber was still further ahead. Judging from the scanning mechanical structure, it would roughly send two pillars of fuel into an estimated small reactor at a uniform speed.

Then consider that there is no water tank or other place to accommodate the working medium, it should not be the output heat energy, it may be electrical energy, because Xia Lin scanned a large number of metal coil structures, that is to say, the engine of the local people is the source stone-reaction-electricity- This is how the rotor power comes about.

"It's quite advanced~" Xia Lin put down the flashlight, reached in and touched the structure of the inner chamber, "However, the machining accuracy is a bit tricky, and the design is good." The inner chamber is obviously not smooth, and it is responsible for slowly feeding the columnar fuel, and When reaching the metal buckle at the tail, the automatic rotation of 45 degrees makes the mechanical structure of the other pair of columnar fuel connections obviously have burrs and hysteresis.

Either this thing has just been refurbished with inferior parts, or the original processing level is not good, and the second-hand goods that have been worn in for so long still have bumps and burrs. According to Xia Lin's opinion, this thing may be damaged. From time to time, the engine is turned off or the machine is stuck, causing the fuel to be unable to be fed and the power to be reduced instantly.

If Maxim was here, he would definitely say in admiration that Xia Lin is like a professional mechanic, because as he expected, this thing does have this kind of problem, and it should be Ursus and most of them. Low-level origin stone motivations have this kind of problem.

The way to repair and solve it is that any Ursus will know. Depending on the severity of the situation, you need a long handle wrench or a strong boot, and the way to repair it is to go up and hit it hard or kick it. kick.

After inspecting the inner chamber, Xia Lin hung the engine with two iron chains, with handles on both sides for inspection and installation, and then Xia Lin reinstalled the fuel rods, shaking the handle on one side vigorously to The gizmo provides an initial fuel feed and "ignition" power.

With a few slight coughing sounds, the engine gradually started to operate, and the four things that Xia Lin thought were pistons on the upper side of the cylinder began to move quickly, driving the connecting rod to rotate rapidly.

"Ah, the piston type?" Xia Lin was stunned for a moment, but soon he realized that this structure is not used for work, the piston requires air tightness, and the plug that bounces off of this thing is a mesh, "radiation or discharge?" Exhaust?"

Particle smoke with high-temperature waste heat is constantly overflowing. After scanning, most of them are the products of those chemical substances used for reaction at high temperature. However, due to a problem with the process, the Originium is obviously not fully reacted, and a large number of Originium surface particles melt or Detached, and then wrapped by these chemicals into suspended aerosol particles, ejected along the hot air.

That is to say, the origin stone engine actually reacts only a very small part of the origin stone, and most of it is wasted. Considering that this is a small computer, those large powers cannot be ruled out. For example, the engine driving the mobile city is also so low. efficiency.

However, the locals are obviously also aware of this. The mesh structure on the pistons is to block some of the particles back and continue to react to improve the reaction efficiency.

As the engine heats up, the reaction should reach the highest efficiency, and the rotor starts to spin rapidly. If you connect the gearbox and drive shaft, you should be able to drive a vehicle or something else, and it can also become a crane, a water pump, etc. thing.

However, the chug-chug sound and the harsh sound of the mechanical parts made Xia Rin completely realize that the quality of this thing is quite bad, and it's not just that bad.

After a series of use tests, the horsepower of this Origin Stone engine is about 10 horsepower. It is indeed a small engine. It is definitely not used to drive the trading station. It may be used to drive the deformation of the house and the trailer crane. .

The fuel consumption rate is about one set of fuel is burned per hour, and each fuel stick is two sets of fuel, that is, one fuel stick can be used for about two hours. For water pumping in a normal year, the local farmers should bear it Can afford this cost, but if there is a drought or other problems that require long-term pumping...

Xia Lin frowned and estimated based on the price of fuel rods and agricultural water consumption. According to the planting methods and output of the local people that he knew before, the local farmers would lose money at least, or go bankrupt at worst.

The working principle of the origin stone motive has also been basically scanned. After all, its main component is cast iron. It is impossible to expect this kind of thing to resist the graviton scanner used by the Covenant industry, although this is the lowest level of industrial scanners. A desktop version, the scanning distance is very short, mainly used for scanning modeling and testing agricultural machinery.

The shape is similar to a large-scale printer, and the working scanning distance is 1.5 meters. It can accurately scan the mass. After processing, it becomes an accurate 3D dynamic model in PNIS. Xia Lin can observe its mechanical structure and internal parts in detail. exercise.

"It's really simple" is really simple in principle, just like the engine of the Star Alliance is also very simple in principle, you only need to find and restrain the graviton, and produce a coherent effect to create a virtual mass field and control the force of gravity Spread direction and intensity, and in turn... manipulate spacetime!

However, here lies the problem. How to discover and interfere with gravitons is a mountain that a civilization may not be able to overcome from birth to death.

In the same way, humans have used it for thousands of years to boil water. Boiling water is very simple, but how to turn the power of boiling water into a power that can be manipulated at the fingertips is another matter.

Xia Lin doesn't know how long the local people have been climbing the origin stone technology, but he understands that the simple principle does not mean that this road is easy to go, even if you ask him to design a more advanced origin stone engine now, it is impossible, but, How to improve some small defects can be done.

The working principle of Origin Stone is to use electrochemical reaction, a group of small capacitors and coils store the weak current generated by the hand crank before, and then these currents are conducted into the Origin Stone through metal wires and poles.

Then those diol compounds quickly combined with ketone compounds, and produced a large number of free electrons and rapid oxidation. During this process, the Origin Stone itself was touched, and it also began to react and release energy in the form of an arc.

The arc energy is collected, and then converted into electric power of the coil, which drives the motor to rotate and do work. During the reaction process, the ketone compound itself, which plays a bonding role, will burn and lose energy, causing the rough stone particles to collapse rapidly, and in the The inner chamber is filled with the reactor under thermal action, which further improves the arc reaction efficiency.

At this time, the power of the source stone reaches the peak output, and the hot gas continuously pushes the piston-like mechanism to reciprocate, continuously doing suction and exhaust work, ensuring that there is enough oxidant in the inner chamber to allow the chemical booster to work, and also let the excess heat and Exhaust exhaust.

This process will lead to a very serious emission of origin stone particles, and even Xia Lin is guessing that these suspended particles in the atmosphere may be a tragedy caused by the industrial pollution of the locals, right?

According to the past events mentioned by White Rabbit sometimes, he realized that the civilization of the local people has been broken down, and it is impossible to produce a new industrial system through the broken down time of civilization, just like the Star Alliance was washed back to the Stone Age, and they would not dig For magic engines with other principles, they will generally follow the order of boiling water and boiling more water.

Not to mention the convenience and abundance of origin stones, which will naturally re-enrich and recharge energy materials, it is impossible to be easily ignored.Although the locals do not seem to have this industrial scale now.

But if they had dense buildings, industrial areas, and various vehicles like the Star Alliance metropolis before the date, a large number of origin stone particles would be discharged into the atmosphere, which would trigger the so-called "natural disaster" and lead to the date of civilization , is not impossible.

If there are some super-large intensive reactors that discharge this stuff into the ocean and the atmosphere without treatment, then...it is not impossible for the consequences to become so serious.

"Well, I'm going to modify this thing. Actually, this thing doesn't need to cause such a big pollution." Xia Lin scratched her head, but human beings are like this, and they won't learn their lessons until they are hammered black and blue.

The transformation plan is very simple. He doesn't need this thing to do kinetic work. The Star Alliance has wireless power transmission equipment and more efficient electric motors. There is no need to use Origin Stone power, but it can be used as a backup generator.

"The first is the reaction process. At present, it seems that there is only this electrochemical trigger method. The trigger I tested before is not only troublesome, but also the type of rapid release of energy to form an explosion. Therefore, the principle of the fuel rod and the reactor should not work." Xia Lin touched He rubbed his chin and thought.

"It is possible to separate the chemical booster from the fuel itself, and blow the ultra-purity source stone itself into the saturated reactor. The reactor uses an old thermoelectric chamber to deal with it. Well, let me think about it~" Xia Lin began Start sketching in PNIS, and manually design the general drawing, flow chart, parts drawing and assembly drawing of the improved Originium Engine.

The level of this guy and the generation of Star Alliance students whose Star Alliance education has become relatively relaxed as the manpower gap is filled up a few decades later are two different concepts. For example, a certain liberal arts student, and a certain Human-machine professional guy.

Using PNIS to draw manual processing flowcharts and detailed drawings by hand is a basic skill for a pioneering technician who may often encounter repairing agricultural machinery or even design simple agricultural machinery according to local conditions. Of course, programming is not—why?Are you stupid? The Star Alliance has a network and professional service companies in this regard!

They can't cross the star sea in an instant to help you manually change the parts, but they can send you a ready-made control software through the Internet in an instant, and serious people use drones driven by regular manufacturers. Make this kind of simple drone without three guarantees.

"Hey~" Yelena looked at it for a while, and knew that Xia Lin seemed to be in a daze, she must be going through some work, the sensible white rabbit quietly exited the workshop, went to the kitchen to find two eggs, and was a little clumsy. Move the stool and break the eggs into the egg mixer.

Xia Lin looked like she probably didn't have time to cook, but Yelena knew how to cook after a few months. It was a tacit understanding between the two who was less busy and who was in charge of dinner.

Then clean the rice cooker, pour rice and water, press it with Bai Shengsheng's small hand, make sure the water level is slightly higher than the back of the hand, put down the lid and start cooking.

Yelena's cooking skills are not bad, but because of her height, some dishes are not cooked well. However, both of them are not picky guys, and this small flaw is acceptable.

Chapter 25 Originium Arts

The origin stone engine stopped for about half an hour for no reason. Xia Lin beat it everywhere but had no choice but to pull out the fuel rod, and then checked the inner chamber and the reactor, and found that the inner chamber was completely red. Thermal damage.

"It's strange, it looks like it was burned because of too high heat." Xia Lin began to disassemble the engine. Since this thing has been completely damaged, it can be disassembled destructively.

And delete the previously drawn drawings, because this device may have some design or hardware problems. If it is done in this way, the designed Origin Stone Engine will definitely have the same error.
