Chapter 125: Orcs and the Light Water Problem

Chapter 125: Orcs and the Light Water Problem

[You are redeeming the second reward, the reward details are as follows:]

[Reward 2: Accurately match the orc you specified and simulate it. Exchange price: 100 points + some magical spores. ]

[The simulation object you specified has been found. ]

【Start calculating the simulated price. 】

[The simulation object is the Orc Technician Boy, and the starting price for the simulation is 10 Magic Spores. ]

[The simulated object has been genetically modified, and its gene purity is only 25% of that of a normal technician boy. The simulation price has increased by 400%. ]

[The simulated object has undergone mechanization transformation, and its mechanization degree has reached 90%, and the simulated price has increased by 1000%]

【最终模拟价格为10*(1+400%+1000%)=150颗神奇孢子。】

[The current inventory of magical spores is 266. ]

[Do you want to start a new Waaagh simulation immediately? ]

The humanoid weapon was identified as an orc by the system!

You can possess yourself!

Oh yeah~
Li Nuo raised his arms high and cheered at the top of his lungs:

“I did it!! I created an Orc Robot!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaagh——————————Waaaaaaagh!!!!!!!!!”

That’s right, the first generation of Junstat is essentially an intelligent robot that uses the orc brain as its central control system, referred to as an orc robot.

From a physiological structure point of view, it is actually similar to the "big iron can" that appeared in previous battles.

But the orc mechas are smarter and more obedient to orders. They will not rebel or defect, always remain absolutely loyal, and will not spread reproductive spores.

These advantages are unmatched by large tin cans.

The orcs watching had no idea what an orc mecha was, but when they saw the Mad Doctor dancing with joy, they started cheering too.

"Wow! The mad doctor is awesome!"

"I knew the mad doctor would be able to do it!"

"This shiny thing is so cute! I want to paint it red!"

The Psychic Boy Pumpa let out a strange cry:

"Wow! I can't extract the psychic energy from this thing, and I can't sense its head! This thing is so magical! I clearly saw the mad doctor put the head in, but why can't I sense its head?"

Of course I can't sense it. Look at what the shell of this orc mecha is made of.

This is armor made of single crystals of subspace energy.

Not only does it have an extremely high resistance to chaos, its material itself is much harder than refined gold, and it can also block scanning, detection and perception at the mental and energy levels, and has a very high resistance to energy attacks.

Not to mention that the Psychic Boy couldn't find the Ork Mecha's brain, even Magnus would have to stare blankly when he saw this Ork Mecha.

It is no exaggeration to say that this set of armor alone is enough to drive the Mechanicus crazy, not to mention the mechanical witchcraft and mad doctor witchcraft used to create the Orc mechas.

After venting his high emotions, Li Nuo immediately started testing work.

He asked all the orcs around to disperse and do what they needed to do, but only left Aaron behind.

Aaron has the greatest strength, punches the fastest, and is the most durable.

After several rounds of striking and anti-strike tests, Li Nuo obtained detailed data.

He gave the humanoid weapon a name on the system interface.

The panel of the first generation of Junstat, written by Li Nuo himself, is freshly released.

[Name: 1st Generation Bacteria Stater-Trial Type]

【Total weight: 390 kg】

[Modules already installed: ticking box, noisy box, anti-chaos hard armor, clacking legs, bang bang arms, robot frame and servo motor. ]

[Equipped modules: Boom Boom, Scrap Shield Generator, Blue Fire Furnace Backpack, Click Flyer, etc. 】

[Advantages: Absolute loyalty, immune to chaos corruption, immune to mental attacks, refractive index of more than 99% of energy attacks, compressive strength is difficult to estimate, at least not less than 2 MPa, and can obtain multiple functions by carrying more modules. ]

【shortcoming:】

[1. The cost is extremely high. The total weight of the armor made of more than 600 kilograms of single crystals is only 300 kilograms, and it is seriously worn out. The missing single crystals are suspected to have turned into subspace energy and returned to the subspace.]

[2. You need to replace the protocol data cartridge to switch to combat mode.]

[3. The survival of the animal brain depends on the nutrient solution, and a single animal brain can only serve for 6 months at most. After 6 months, the animal brain will be scrapped due to long-term exposure to electric current.]

[4. External sensors use conventional electronic components and are not chaos resistant, so they may become nodes for Chaos Demon invasion.]

[5. The armor's joints are made of leather, hinges, and high-elastic composite fibers, so its defensive performance is relatively weak and there is a risk of being pierced by sharp objects.]

【6. Insufficient air tightness, may be damaged by poisonous gas, strong acid, and strong alkali. 】

[7. The defensive performance is sufficient, but the mobility and explosive power are insufficient. Further optimization of the internal transmission system is needed to achieve explosive power and movement speed comparable to that of "Li Nuo"'s human body.]

[8. The concealment is seriously insufficient, and special coatings are needed to shield the scan. ]

The advantages of the first generation of bacteriastat are very prominent, but its disadvantages cannot be ignored.

Among the many shortcomings, there is one that is difficult to judge whether it is good or bad.

That is, the first generation of Germstat needs to load the protocol data cartridge to work.

The benefit is obvious, it will not be out of the owner's control.

The downside is that the action pattern is rigid, and this rigidity also affects the possession.

After Li Nuo sent Ailon away, he tried to possess the body of the first generation of Germstat.

He soon discovered the embarrassing thing, that is, after being possessed, the behavior of the first generation of Fungusstat was still restricted by the action agreement.

What Li Nuo loaded into the first generation of Fungusstat at this time was the self-test protocol.

After he is possessed, he can only act according to the agreement. He cannot ignore the agreement or overstep his authority.

For example, he wanted to control the first generation of Junstat to do a mid-air dive.

Since this action was not written into the protocol, the neural command of "flying in the air" could not be converted into electronic signals, and the servo motor in the body of the first-generation Fungusstat naturally failed to receive the command.

As a result, he was in a situation where he tried very hard to jump but was still unable to jump out.

To sum up, if you want to move freely after possessing the first generation of Bacteriastat, you must write a good and detailed action agreement.

The only exception is bacterial ability.

Regardless of whether the use of fungal abilities is allowed in the protocol, Li Nuo can freely cast them while possessed.

Think about it.

Bacterial capacity comes from the system.

As long as the system exists, the bacteria's abilities can be used freely.

After ending the possession, Li Nuo wrote a new entry on the panel of the first-generation Germstat.

【Renovation ideas:】

[Remove the ticking box and the built-in robot frame, and replace the servo motor with an electronic muscle bundle. After the transformation, the shell of this Germstat will become a single-soldier power armor. ]

At this point, the basic testing of the prototype has come to an end.

Calculating the time, it should be evening at Epimate. We should wait until tomorrow to do the actual combat test, extreme environment test and other projects.

Li Nuo chose to save the first generation of Bacteriastat and ended the simulation.

[You spend 100 simulation points to create a character archive for "Orc Robot Boy - Dabai". ]

【The simulated character has been saved. 】

【Start simulation settlement. 】

[You received about 1.5 likes from members of the Steel Warrior clan.]

[You received 10 likes from Iron Warrior clan leader Ailon.]

[You get a total of 3.2 simulation points. ]

[Remaining simulation points: approximately 19 million. ]

[Number of magical spores: 116. ]

The residence in the Wangting area.

Li Nuo opened his eyes in the study. The afterglow of the setting sun outside the window poured into the room, forming a golden beam of light.

Next, he can create the first generation of Bacteriastat in his private laboratory.

The creation process must not be disturbed by anyone.

If someone else saw the orc's head, I would be in trouble.

Li Nuo planned to arrange the affairs of the hive city first, and then enter the private laboratory to build the Fungusstat.

I stood up and walked out of the study. Brandi had just finished making dinner.

Li Nuo sat down at the dining table and looked at the news on the data board.

After waiting for a while, Tido entered the house.

She went into the bathroom to wash up before dinner, then sat at the table to eat.

It has become a regular occurrence for Tido to come here for dinner.

Brandi's cooking skills were one thing, but on the other hand, Tido didn't want to attend the dinner party in the Royal Court.

Most of the people at the banquet were family representatives, guild representatives, aliens, and the like.

It’s so tiring to have dinner and chat with this kind of people.

Tiduo simply avoided the dinner party in the Royal Court every night under the pretext of accompanying Li Nuo, and came to Li Nuo's place to fill her stomach and rest for a while. "Is there anything that needs my attention recently?" Li Nuo put down the data board and ate, saying as he ate:

"My experiment is about to make a breakthrough, and I need to stay in the laboratory for several days in a row. I want to finish the things that I have to deal with before that."

"Hmm, let me think about it..." Tido stuffed a handful of peas into her mouth, puffed up her cheeks and chewed them with a crunching sound.

After swallowing a mouthful of salty beans, she took a sip of water and said:

"There are two things you must attend. One is the Chudan Festival in half a month. This is the traditional festival of Epimate to welcome the New Year. You and I will attend the parade ceremony and the dinner on the Chudan Festival."

"Parade ceremony?" Li Nuo paused while eating. "Is it the kind of celebration where we sit in a car and parade around the hive?"

"That's right. We just need to go around the main street of the first district. People in other districts can watch the celebration through the broadcast."

Li Nuo nodded slowly, "Okay, I understand. What about the second thing?"

"The second thing is about the Water family. Do you remember Godwin Water?"

"I remember him. He is Elena's father. I replaced the water from the Xiachao Water Treatment Plant with irrigation water for Baiguo Manor. The water merchants Godwin and Elena, father and daughter, helped me with the water replacement. Godwin knew about the existence of water poccoccus. Did he tell the Water family about it?"

"No, Godwin kept the secret about the water poccocus bacteria. This person may be the key to our control over the Water Family."

Tiduo put down the cutlery, wiped her mouth, and said seriously:
“Before the cleanup operation against the Reconciliation Cult began, Godwin made a request to the head of the Water family. He hoped that his daughter, Elena, could have a set of hunting equipment so that she could participate in the cleanup operation and move up the succession line.

"Godwin's action displeased some members of the Water family. They murdered Godwin's wife and crippled his legs. Elena would have been killed, but she was favored by Kadori of the Lewei family and thus escaped..."

After hearing what Tido said, Li Nuo really didn't expect that there were so many stories hidden in it. He couldn't help but sit up straight and listen carefully.

Elena's experience really fulfilled the old saying before the time travel:

The sorrow and the blessing of the blessings, the blessings of the blessings.

If she had not been favored by Kadori of the Lewei family, she might have suffered the same fate as her mother, or even worse.

Tido said:
"After we started building new rainwater collection pipelines and water purification plants, the Water Family secretly investigated where we bought the water purification equipment. The Water Family discovered that Godwin and his daughter had business dealings with the Umbrella Group. The Water Family held an internal family meeting to force Godwin and Elena to reveal the truth."

Li Nuo imagined the scene at the meeting and frowned slightly:

"They both didn't give in, did they?"

"Yes, they did not give in. The hatred for their deceased wife and mother made the father and daughter persevere to the end. Moreover, Godwin used his intelligence and experience to help us send a signal at that meeting."

Li Nuo asked, "What signal?"

Tiduo took a deep breath and said with a hint of smile:

"This signal is that no matter if the Water family goes against the current governor or the future governor, they will have no way out. As long as the governor is willing, the Water family's foundation will be reduced to dust overnight, and the entire family will go from being a noble family to a stray dog on the side of the road."

Li Nuo raised his eyebrows:

"It seems that this Godwin is quite tough. He dares to speak like this in front of so many people in the family. Isn't he afraid that we won't support him?"

Tido continued to smile, her eyes flickering, waiting for Li Nuo's response.

Li Nuo spread his hands:

"Well, Godwin made the right bet. When can he see me?"

"It can be done tomorrow. In fact, Isabel and I have met with the father and daughter before. Isabel and I have already drawn up all the cooperation plans, and now we are waiting for your final decision."

Tido opened the document on the data tablet and handed it to Li Nuo.

Li Nuo took it and laughed:

"You two are really capable. You helped me get things done without making any noise."

"Of course. The more effort we put into trivial matters, the better it will be for you to invest more energy and time in scientific research, and the future of the hive city will be better. I am very clear about this." Tido tilted her head proudly, smiling, picked up the cutlery and continued to eat.

Li Nuo flipped through the documents on the data board and saw the plan drawn up by Tido and Isabel.

"I have something to add." Li Nuo raised the issue of water shortage in the nest city that might occur in the future.

After listening to this, Tido gradually realized the hidden dangers caused by the rapid development of synthetic starch.

This was something neither she nor Isabel had ever thought of before.

According to Li Nuo's deduction:
After all the promethium refining residues from the six imperial worlds are transported to Epimet for processing, the total water volume in the hive will steadily decrease in about 5 to 10 years. After another 10 years, the hive will suffer from large-scale water shortages and can only rely on imports from outside.

Once the water shortage problem becomes a trend, it will become irreversible and incurable.

Therefore, it is necessary to respond before problems arise.

"When Godwin and I meet tomorrow, I hope you, Isabel, and Godwin's daughter will be present. Together we can find a way to solve the problem of water shortage in the future. If Godwin and the Water family behind him can solve this problem, then the Water family will have a reason to exist, otherwise..."

Li Nuo didn't finish his words, but Tido understood what he meant. The two looked at each other and nodded, reaching a tacit agreement.

After dinner, Tido rested for a while at Li Nuo's residence, and then went to her office to handle official business.

Li Nuo entered the private laboratory to prepare for the creation of the first generation of Fungusstat.

The next day, in the morning, in the small reception room of the Royal Court area.

Godwin and his daughter arrived as promised.

Elena looked a little haggard, which was caused by the family meeting that was like a confession, but she also became much more mature because of it, and was no longer as ignorant as a rookie who had just entered the business world.

When she saw Li Nuo, Elena looked a little confused...

The person that his father tried so hard to match him up with has become someone who is out of his reach. Anyone would be at a loss when faced with such a huge change.

Tido noticed that Elena's expression was a little strange and cast a questioning look at Li Nuo.

Li Nuo didn't dare to show any abnormality at this time, otherwise he would have to enter the Shura Field.

He welcomed the arrival of the water merchant and his daughter with a calm expression and behaved openly.

Godwin wisely did not mention the matchmaking between his daughter and Li Nuo, pretending that it had never happened.

Influenced by her father, Elena quickly calmed down and put the embarrassing incident behind her.

Everyone sat down in the reception room.

Tido got straight to the point and asked if there was any way to solve the problem of water shortage in the future.

This question was clearly beyond Godwin's expectations and caught him off guard, so that his calm demeanor was broken and he revealed a hint of surprise and confusion.

But soon, Godwin calmed down and began to think.

Food shortage and water shortage are common problems in the entire human empire. Only a few agricultural worlds, garden worlds and paradise worlds are immune.

To a large extent, water shortage was one of the driving forces behind the Great Crusade.

Every time a planet with abundant water resources is found, the existing imperial world can extend its life and push the window for the outbreak of drought problems back by a few years.

If Godwin had a way to solve the problem of water shortage in the future, he would have been very successful long ago and would not have had his legs broken by someone.

"I'm sorry, I can only provide an idea, but I can't guarantee that it will work."

Godwin said apologetically:

"The Water family has actually been concerned about the potential water shortage problem for a long time. In response to this problem, the solution we proposed internally is to purify the radioactive water."

When it comes to professional issues, the right to speak naturally falls into Li Nuo's hands.

"Radiated water? Do you mean the light water coolant for the plasma reactor?"

"Yes, sir, that is what I mean."

There are two types of coolant for plasma reactors, light water and heavy water.

The main component of light water is H2O, and the main component of heavy water is D2O.

In theory, only light water can be purified and made drinkable after being exposed to radiation.

The radioactive water the two were discussing was precisely the radioactive light water coolant.

Godwin opened his data pad and displayed a table:
"According to our Vought family's statistics, the total amount of radioactive water produced by the Empire each year reaches a staggering 1800 trillion cubic meters, which is roughly equivalent to the total amount of water on an ocean planet the size of Terra. Such a large amount of radioactive water has no other use except to be discharged onto the garbage planet."

Li Nuo asked thoughtfully:

"That means the Empire must discover a new ocean planet every year to maintain the supply of light water coolant?"

"Yes, my lord."

Li Nuo asked again:

"Have you, the Water family, found a way to purify the radioactive water?"

Godwin looked a little embarrassed:

".We found it, but the cost is so high that it can be said that the income is not enough to cover the expenditure. The value of the raw materials consumed is far greater than the water itself."

"Okay, I understand." Li Nuo glanced at Tido.

Tido understood and took over the conversation to discuss the water supply for the starch factory with Godwin, while Isabel took notes of the meeting.

The rainwater collection pipes and water treatment plants cannot be built so quickly, but the work of adding new production capacity for synthetic starch cannot stop there.

For at least three months, it is best to buy water from the Water Family, otherwise you will have to import it from other imperial worlds at a higher price.

During these three months, we must stabilize the Water family and let them see hope, so as to avoid backlash and unrest from the Water family.

After these three months, what will happen to the Water family will all depend on whether they commit suicide or not.

Li Nuo hopes they will die.

This way, they could legitimately take over the Water Guild in the Hive City and control almost all water-related facilities and pipelines.

After the meeting, Li Nuo saw the guests off and returned to the laboratory to start making the first generation of bacteriastat.

The radioactive water mentioned by Godwin is a good research direction, which coincides with Li Nuo’s own needs.

After the first generation of bacteriastat used to protect the human body is built, we can then study methods to purify radioactive water.

 I have a lot to do today, so the content about thanking the monthly votes will be temporarily moved to tomorrow!
