Chapter 128 Reincarnation Society?
It was six o'clock in the morning, the sky was already light, and the homeless people on Pike Street were still sleeping soundly.
In the dim bedroom on the second floor of the old green house, Fu Qinghai was naked, leaning lazily on the back of the bed. He turned his head to glance at the gap in the curtains, reached out and opened a corner of the curtains to let the sunlight in.
Fu Qinghai was about to reach for the cigar humidor on the bedside table, but Zhang Yuning turned over and opened the cigar humidor, took out a cigar, skillfully cut the seal with both hands, lit it with a spray gun, held it in her mouth, took a deep breath, exhaled the smoke, and then handed the cigar to Fu Qinghai.
Fu Qinghai bit the half-moist cigar and took a deep breath. The thick white mist swirled between his throat and nasal cavity, and then he exhaled slowly.
Fu Qinghai sipped his cigar and looked out the window with a wandering gaze.
There's nothing wrong with having a cigarette afterwards, but it's really nice to have someone light it for you afterwards.
Zhang Yuning is a tall and thin girl, about 1.7 meters tall, but weighs only 50 kilograms. Fu Qinghai can lift her entire body with one hand.
Her skin was very white, the kind with visible veins, a standard cold white skin, and her cup size was at most B+ but less than C. What attracted Fu Qinghai was not so much her figure as her cold temperament that kept people at a distance.
The sense of accomplishment of conquering an ice beauty is always greater than that of hooking up with a playboy.
Fu Qinghai withdrew his gaze from the window, put his arm around Zhang Yuning's tattooed shoulders, pulled her into his arms, leaned close to her cheek, and asked in a low voice:
"One more time?"
"Um."
Zhang Yuning lowered her eyes and nodded slightly.
…
The wind stopped and the rain stopped.
Fu Qinghai sat on the bed and put on his shoes. Zhang Yuning lazily propped herself up and lay on Fu Qinghai's back, her bulging belly pressing against Fu Qinghai's waist. She put her arms around his neck, put her mouth close to the man's ear, and whispered:
"Should I take birth control pills?"
Fu Qinghai paused and shook his head,
"No need."
"Um?"
"You can't get pregnant."
"Why?" Zhang Yuning tilted her head and asked in confusion.
Fu Qinghai sighed, stood up, turned around and looked at the beauty sitting on the bed, stroked her flawless cheek with his fingers, and said,
"In a sense, we are no longer the same species. There is reproductive isolation between us."
Fu Qinghai thought that he had lost the ability to reproduce naturally, and Zhang Yuning should be able to comfort him, but he didn't expect that women's focus was always so strange.
Zhang Yuning grabbed Fu Qinghai's arm and asked:
"Are there any female Space Marines?"
Fu Qinghai: ???
Fu Qinghai: "No!"
Zhang Yuning breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and lay down on the bed, waved lazily at Fu Qinghai, and said,
"Go ahead, I'm tired, I want to sleep a little longer."
Good man, you are so ruthless, right?
Fu Qinghai complained in his heart, went downstairs and walked out of the old house.
…
Small laboratory building in Haigang District, five floors.
On Fu Qinghai's laboratory table, there is a pair of thick silver-white metal arms.
The joint at the end of the arm was still stained with scattered flesh and dried blood.
Fu Qinghai turned to look at the plastic doll standing on the experimental table and asked,
"Is this it?"
Upton Dupont nodded and said,
"Yes, I sawed this off from a reincarnation named 'Iron Hand'. From the illusion created by Zhang, I also learned that he should be a mid-level member of the perfect human race."
Fu Qinghai nodded and said,
"Okay, I'll run the analysis instrument through first to identify the metal material."
Fu Qinghai picked up a metal arm and moved it over the various analytical and testing instruments in the laboratory one by one. The data read out from the machines made Fu Qinghai more and more frightened.
These data, these properties, are consistent with the long-forgotten data in Tony Stark's electronic soul backup.
Experimental data from Iron Man's father, Howard Stark.
In 1941, Howard Stark obtained the experimental data when he was responsible for modifying the shield.
"Adamantium."
Fu Qinghai muttered to himself.
"What? Adamantium?"
The plastic ghost doll beside him shouted:
"Then I sent it!"
Fu Qinghai nodded and said,
"You did, Upton."
Fu Qinghai then added:
"But there is one flaw. This is secondary adamantium, not real adamantium."
"Secondary Adamantium?"
The ghost doll tilted his head, "What is that?"
Fu Qinghai explained:
"True Adamantium, as described in the main Marvel Universe, which is Earth-616, is 'never wears out, cannot be destroyed, and can resist all forms of attack.'"
"Of course, this thing is not invincible, although it is the hardest in the universe and has the highest physical resistance."
"But, first of all, Adamantium has no resistance to magic, it is just pure hardness. Secondly, it can be processed by a device called a 'molecular rearranger'. Once processed and formed, it can never be changed and cannot be recast a second time."
The setting also says that Adamantium can withstand high temperatures of 500,000°C.
Could a higher temperature melt adamantium? No one knows, because humans on Earth at that time could not create temperatures above 500,000 degrees Celsius.
(PS: This is because the screenwriters of Marvel at that time had no common sense. In fact, humans can create a temperature of 510 million degrees Celsius. I simply and crudely set it here that true adamantium cannot be melted by high temperature.)
The more Fu Qinghai spoke, the brighter Upton's eyes became.
Fu Qinghai poured a bucket of cold water on him:
"It's a pity that these arms are not made of true adamantium, but of secondary adamantium."
"Secondary Adamantium can be considered an improved version of True Adamantium. It does not have the extremely strong properties of True Adamantium. If the force reaches a certain level, it can be destroyed."
Ultron's shell is made of secondary adamantium alloy, and even after withstanding a full-strength blow from Thor, it only left a slight dent.
Upton asked doubtfully:
"Why is it called an improved version if it's already weaker?"
Fu Qinghai said:
"First, the cost of secondary adamantium alloy is lower, and less original adamantium metal is needed. Secondly, and most importantly..."
Fu Qinghai shrugged and said:
"Once set, it never changes. That's actually a pretty stupid attribute, isn't it?"
Upton thought.
Fu Qinghai pointed to the metal arm in his hand and said:
"If this pair of arms is made of real adamantium, then you and I will have no chance of using them. Even if a normal, healthy human wants to use this pair of arms, he or she will have to cut off his or her own arms before installing them."
"On the contrary, secondary adamantium can be reprocessed and recast, which greatly enhances its utilization."
Upton DuPont understood that it was precisely because the pair of metal arms were forged from secondary adamantium that gave the two men the opportunity to use them. Otherwise, they would be two very precious but completely useless pieces of scrap.
"It seems like a flaw in the ointment, but it's actually just right."
Upton concluded.
"That's right."
Fu Qinghai nodded, stroked the metal arm, and sighed.
Upton asked,
"What's wrong, Qingshan?"
Fu Qinghai said,
"Nothing. I just lamented that in the Marvel Universe, only big men like Ultron can use Secondary Adamantium. As a result, a reincarnation with arms made of Secondary Adamantium died in Zhang Yuning's haunted house in such an unclear way."
Not only was he killed by Kayako, but he was also deceived and manipulated by the illusion created by Valak, and a lot of information was extracted from him.
Upton Road:
"You are also aware of Zhang's abilities. Once she has set up the haunted house, she will be very restrained against pure technology players who have no magical abilities. Why do so many reincarnations perish in the horror movie universe? This is not a contest in the same dimension at all."
Fu Qinghai nodded in approval and said,
"I have another explanation."
"I looked up the research data of the Perfect Human Mine Laboratory and learned some secrets: the ones who came to this reincarnation world this time were mainly a branch of the Perfect Humans - X Reincarnation. The reincarnations I killed in the mine, including the 'Iron Hand' killed by Zhang Yuning, were originally mutants. It was only because of the influence of M-Day that they all became ordinary people. That's why they had to pick up the weapons and ammunition that ordinary people use again."
Although they had money and assimilation points, they were no longer familiar with traditional thermal weapons combat, which led to the blunder of using Javelin missiles in the mine.
Having said that, Upton asked happily:
"Then you must know how to reforge Lesser Adamantium, right, Aoyama?"
Fu Qinghai shook his head:
"I don't know."
The big face of the plastic doll fell instantly.
Fu Qinghai only knew the various property data of adamantium alloy. This was because Howard Stark had once conducted a property test on an unnamed shield in the Strategic Scientific Corps warehouse, and then painted the shield red and blue, added a handle and a belt, and gave it to Steve Rogers as a weapon.
However, this shield was not made by Howard Stark. Instead, it was the result of an experimental accident when a scientist from the Strategic Scientific Corps, Dr. Myron MacLaine, was studying raw adamantium and vibranium. The shield was created by somehow fusing raw adamantium with a bunch of chemical materials.
The Strategic Scientific Corps (SSR) is the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D.
In other words, Captain America's shield is neither a shield of adamantium nor a shield of vibranium. It is a unique accident in the universe. Captain America's shield = vibranium + original adamantium + iron alloy + other messy materials + the doctor's luck.
Captain America's shield is an accident whose principle cannot be reversed. The casting of adamantium alloy requires a molecular rearranger. Iron Man's father did not participate in any scientific experiments on adamantium alloy processing, so he did not know about Iron Man's electronic soul backup.
So Fu Qinghai didn't know either.
"That's it."
Fu Qinghai spread his hands helplessly.
"All right."
Upton accepted the result, cleared his throat, and said seriously:
"Qingshan, even though you don't have a solution, I think you know more about adamantium than I do. Even though this is my trophy... well, this is actually Zhang's trophy, and it has little to do with me, but what I want to say is that I want to give this pair of arms to you."
Fu Qinghai was not surprised by Upton's words. Apart from selling them to other technologically advanced reincarnations, the ghost doll did not make use of the abilities of this pair of arms.
But what Upton said next surprised him:
"But I still have two conditions, or requests, Qingshan."
The ghost doll raised two fingers.
Fu Qinghai narrowed his eyes slightly: "You say."
Upton Road:
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"First, when you find a way to process adamantium alloy, I hope you can make me a knife made of secondary adamantium alloy that is suitable for my body size."
Fu Qinghai nodded:
"No problem, it's a small matter. In fact, if I didn't know much about the working mechanism of your soul possession, I could build a strong and sturdy mechanical ghost doll body for you now, but I don't know if such a body can still be used for you to possess."
Upton shook his head. "No, but I'll state my second condition."
The ghost doll raised a little finger.
"Let's form a club, Aoyama."
Fu Qinghai was stunned when he heard this.
Upton said seriously:
"Don't you think that we are suitable to act as a club? We agree with each other's ideas. You are the strongest one, and Zhang and I can complement you. Zhang's ability from the horror movie universe can make up for your shortcomings when facing these evil spirits and demons. Oh, and Zhang also likes you. Although she tries her best to hide it, I know it."
"And my concealment ability can also provide you with intelligence information. You have experienced my lurking ability."
"And Ron...well, although Ron's symbiote hasn't shown how strong it is yet, we all like Ron, don't we?"
This... Fu Qinghai began to think about it.
Whether he liked Ron or not was another matter. He really didn't expect that Upton's final condition or request would be this.
Fu Qinghai was extremely suspicious and had read a lot of infinite novels in his previous life. He had never hesitated to assume the worst of the reincarnationists. In addition, he was used to fighting alone, so he had never thought about forming a club before.
Fu Qinghai touched his chin and seriously considered the feasibility of forming a reincarnation society.
Zhang Yuning had slept with me, so needless to say, she trusted me.
And what about Upton and Ron?
To be honest, Fu Qinghai didn't really think much of the series of complementary abilities that Guiwa talked about.
Fu Qinghai does not limit his view of the problem to one point in time, but looks at the entire timeline.
Not to mention that Upton's lurking ability is very buggy, even if Upton and Ron are both losers, it is very rare to be able to meet a few friends who can be confided, trusted and trusted in this reincarnation world full of intrigue and deception.
The fact that they are weak now does not mean they will be weak in the future. Even if they are weak in the future, with Fu Qinghai, the Astartes Tech Soldier with Tony Stark's electronic soul backup, are they still afraid of not having weapons?
In the MCU's Avengers, Falcon's wings, War Machine's armor, Captain America's shield's electromagnetic recovery device, Black Widow's stick, Spider-Man's suit... How many superheroes' equipment is made by Iron Man.
What's more, Upton and Ron are not weak at all now. One is a ghost kid who has returned to life, and the other is a symbiote host. How can they be weak?
What Fu Qinghai values most is the life-and-death friendship between several people, and the mutual cherishment of this friendship, which outweighs the cold assimilation points.
Fu Qinghai nodded slowly and said,
"Upton, I will seriously consider your suggestion. Please give me some time."
"OK."
Upton agreed and did not force Fu Qinghai to make a decision now.
The more cautious Fu Qinghai behaves, the more he takes it seriously, and he's not just doing it for fun and then breaking up the next day.
Fu Qinghai took the metal arm back to the lab table and changed the subject, saying,
"Although I don't have the technology for this molecular rearranger, I now have some ideas and thoughts on processing and recasting secondary adamantium."
Fu Qinghai picked up the power sword, and with a "buzz" sound, the disintegration force field lit up.
In a sense, the fragmentation force field is also a molecular rearranger.
It is only responsible for separation, not rearrangement.
Fu Qinghai slowly brought the dark blue electric arc force field closer to the silver-white metal arm. As soon as it touched, there was a loud "hiss" sound, and the blade could no longer move forward.
Fu Qinghai removed the disintegration force field, but there was no change on the metal arm, and it seemed still indestructible.
Fu Qinghai took the metal arm under a microscope and observed it. From the microscope's perspective, a thin and deep scratch appeared in the lens.
The Disintegration Field can break through Secondary Adamantium, but the effect is not good.
If it was such a tiny crack, how many hundreds of cuts would it take to cut it open?
The disintegration force field generator was cut down to the point of running out of power.
Fu Qinghai shook his head and rejected this idea.
This is both a bad thing and a good thing, as it shows that the secondary adamantium is really hard.
Fu Qinghai put down the power sword and said calmly:
"Then there is another idea left."
"What idea?"
Upton asked from the side.
Fu Qinghai: "Do you know how the Mechanicus forges adamantium?"
Upton thought to himself that I didn't even know what the Mechanicus was, but he still said:
"How to forge it?"
"Stellar furnace." Fu Qinghai said solemnly, "Some Mechanicus shipyards have special technology that uses the high temperature at the center of a star as a furnace to melt the adamantium."
Adamantium is the strongest metal in the Warhammer 40K universe. The stellar furnace technology was lost at some point, so the Terminator armor that used adamantium as the skeleton during the 40K period became an antique relic of the Space Marine chapters and can no longer be replicated.
To tell you something even funnier, the Human Empire obtained a warship that had been passed down from the Dark Age of Technology, but because they couldn't open the adamantine shell of the warship, they had no way of going in to study it.
Fu Qinghai said:
"We don't have the conditions to use the sun to forge lesser adamantium now. I can only wait until I return to the Warhammer 40K universe and try again."
As he was speaking, a voice came from the computer in the laboratory:
"Ding Dong, visitor has arrived. Face recognition result: unknown face."
Fu Qinghai leaned over to take a look and saw that it was Ron Bentham.
"Open the door."
Maybe the reincarnation world did not arrange a legal new identity for the reincarnated people, so the access control prompt was "Unknown face". Ron walked into the experimental building with bags of food in his hands.
I went to buy food for Fu Qinghai.
By the way, his own symbiote also needs to find food.
The symbiote needs to consume endorphins to maintain vitality. Endorphins are only found in large quantities in two types of food: chocolate and the brain of a living being.
Although Ron is a little bit wretched sometimes, he is generally a big boy with a simple sense of justice and a kind heart. He should have gone to have dinner with the reincarnations from the enemy camp, or some indigenous criminals.
As soon as Ron reached the fifth floor, he opened his arms and shouted impatiently:
"Qingshan, come and study me, I'm ready."
A dark blue evil little head emerged from his shoulder and said in a low voice:
"Did you get my consent for making this decision? I'm not ready."
Ron ignored him completely, put down the food and walked to the laboratory table.
Fu Qinghai turned and looked at him and said,
"I am currently researching something else. Please give me some samples to store. I will study your symbiont another day."
Ron ordered,
"Hate, show me a piece of yourself."
The symbiote reluctantly stretched out a slender dark blue gelatinous body and laid it across the experimental table, muttering:
"Human, even though Ron said you are very strong, I still have to remind you that my body cannot be cut by ordinary swords. You'd better..."
Before he could finish his words of hatred, Fu Qinghai picked up the power long knife and slashed it. With a swish, "pop", a piece of dark blue wriggling gelatinous object fell on the experimental table.
"Ahhhh, it hurts, it hurts so much!"
Hatred trembled and twitched, screaming exaggeratedly.
Fu Qinghai was quick-witted and quick-handed. Before the small ball of squirming colloid returned to Ron's body, he took out an alloy container to cover it, closed the sealed lid, and put it away.
Fu Qinghai thought that the experiment should be carried out before it loses its activity.
As for the research and utilization of adamantium alloy, we will have to put it on hold for now.
As the most famous metal in the Marvel Universe, Adamantium deserves further study.
Friends who major in materials science know that the key to alloys lies in their crystal form. When carbon atoms are arranged in hexagonal rings, they become soft but conductive graphite; when they are arranged in regular tetrahedrons, they become hard but non-conductive diamond.
In the comics, there are twelve crystal forms of adamantium, most of which are unstable and can only exist for a short time. In addition to true adamantium and secondary adamantium, the only crystal form that can exist stably is Wolverine's adamantium beta version, which is a healing adamantium that has been fused with Wolverine's self-healing factor. Like Captain America's shield, it is also a unique exception in the entire universe.
Fu Qinghai didn't consider these unique scorpion shits. He only wanted those that could be replicated and mass-produced based on the principles he knew, not those that relied on luck.
...
Scientifically speaking, the temperature at the center of a star is actually not as high as the instantaneous temperature of the plasma. But since it's a space opera, let's not be too particular about it. After all, a stellar furnace sounds cool.
I haven't studied in detail whether the adamantium claws used by Deathly Haunt and Wolverine's adopted daughter X-23 are the same self-healing adamantium as Wolverine, so I assume that Wolverine's adamantium is unique. Book friends who know can tell me.
