305 Biochemical Cell (2)
Ball’s current knowledge reserves far exceeded Ning Shi’s, so Ning Shi asked, “What is the use of these ordinary biochemical cells now?”
“Ordinary biochemical cells are one of the basic materials for making biochemical mechas,” replied Ball. “A beginner biochemical mecha requires at least a billion units of ordinary biochemical cells.
“These ordinary biochemical cells are temporarily useless, so we can only store them for now.”
When Ning Shi heard that Ball’s answer was related to mecha manufacturing, he was immediately interested. The information he transmitted to Ball included all aspects, so Ning Shi did not know what level Ball’s database was at now.
“Ball, have you mastered the technology to make mechas?” Ning Shi asked tentatively.
Ball shook its shiny silver head and said, “Master, I have information about mecha manufacturing in my database. I can create some mecha modules.
“However, the key design blueprints and power cores are missing, so I cannot create any mechas.
“If Master can give me the relevant data and information, as well as provide me with the resources and manufacturing platform to manufacture mechas, I’m confident that I can manufacture mechas.”
Seeing Ning Shi’s disappointed expression, Ball comforted him, “Master, don’t worry. I’ll definitely help you build the most powerful mecha.
“We’ve already made a good start by creating ordinary biochemical cells.”
Ning Shi smiled when he heard what Ball said. He rubbed its smooth head with his palm.
“Work hard, Ball. We will definitely create top-grade mechas. When the time comes, you and I will have one each.
“Let’s start with the biochemical mecha.
“What do I need to provide you with?”
The electronic eyes of Ball flashed and replied, “The creation of biochemical mechas first requires the cultivation of a large number of biochemical cells. Biochemical cells are divided into ordinary biochemical cells, elite biochemical cells, hero biochemical cells, and mythological biochemical cells. Among them, mythological cells are the most powerful.
“However, the more powerful the cells, the better for mecha manufacturing. The more powerful the biochemical cells, the more active and unstable they will be. It would be more difficult to create a mecha, and other cells would be needed to assist.
“The body of a powerful biochemical mecha must have a combination of various biochemical cells. The ratio of various biochemical cells is called the biochemical material formula in the biochemical mecha manufacturing world.
“It is similar to the alloy material formula.
“The first thing we have to do is to produce enough biochemical cells. Then, through our own experiments and the collection of experimental data from other institutions, we will develop a powerful biochemical material formula.
“Then, we will produce enough biochemical materials according to the formula.
“After we have the materials for the mecha, we can consider the design of the mecha and the manufacture of the helium power core.”
With Ball’s analysis, Ning Shi indeed had a direction.
However, he and Ball wanted to build a mecha. They lacked resources and technology.
No wonder the system’s main storyline mission required him to join and control a faction.
Without the help of a faction, it was indeed difficult to develop mecha research and manufacturing.
Ning Shi spent more than 200,000 origin coins to create the basic biochemical cultivation fluid. He had also invested nearly a million origin coins worth of biochemical materials into the cultivation fluid to obtain 101,000 units of ordinary biochemical cells.
A biochemical mecha required at least one billion units of ordinary biochemical cells. The cost of this alone was as high as ten billion. There were even more expensive elite cells, hero cells, mythological cells, as well as the most expensive helium power core.
It was indeed difficult for Ning Shi to build a mecha on his own.
However, Ning Shi did not stop Ball’s research. The process of research and production was to accumulate experience and data.
“We’ll do as you said. Store these cells in the freezer. There are thousands of biochemical materials in the warehouse. When you have time, do a classification and separate the ones that we don’t need. I’ll sell them. ”
Ning Shi instructed.
Ball received the order and went to pack up.
Ning Shi stayed in the production room for a while. Seeing that it was almost time for the exam, he left Ball in the production room to study and went to the independent field alone.
The independent field occupied a huge area of hundreds of thousands of square meters.
The ground of the entire field was paved with pseudo-alloy materials. Pseudo-alloy was a kind of material that was made by mixing a lot of cheap stone materials with real alloys.
Because this material was mixed with a lot of stone, its malleability and toughness were relatively poor, but its hardness was sufficient, and the cost of manufacturing was also greatly reduced.
It was widely used in the parking lot of various warships and mechas.
As the independent field was one of the places where the mecha of the Norse Republic Academy operated, the ground was paved with pseudo-alloy. It was sturdy and very flat.
On the field, the tri-colored striped flag fluttered in the wind. Beside the flagpole, a mecha about 50 meters tall stood majestically.
Under the afternoon sun, the surface of the mecha shone with blue and white light.
Ning Shi could see at a glance that at the left and right arms of this mecha, there were two cannon barrels with a diameter of more than two meters.
At the end of the barrel was a ferocious tiger head.
This was a beginner mecha, a long-range attack mecha produced by the Norse Republic Academy. It was called the Tiger Cannon Mecha.
Ning Shi saw Nico standing in the corner of the student gathering point from afar and quickly walked to Nico’s side.
Nico was now completely convinced that his bad luck would not affect Ning Shi. Hence, when he saw Ning Shi walking over, he did not deliberately put some distance between them.
He greeted Ning Shi and said, “Are you confident in piloting the mecha this afternoon? With your results for the two exams in the morning, the chances of you being eliminated are very small. Don’t force yourself in the afternoon exam, just complete one of the three required movements.”
Ning Shi replied with a smile. “I know. Using too much strength in operating a mecha can easily cause the consequences of a collapse of willpower. I will do my best.”
Nico’s lips curled into a smile. His handsome face shone brightly under the sunlight. A few of his classmates were stunned.
He didn’t notice the charm that he had unintentionally emitted. Instead, he said to Ning Shi, “Tomorrow is a day off. Do you have any plans?
“If you have no arrangements, my teacher will come tomorrow to teach me mecha combat alone. You can study with me.”
After saying this, Nico paused for a moment. He tilted his head and whispered to Ning Shi, “My teacher is the true God of War Wu Yisheng. You should have heard of his name.”
Ning Shi had heard of Wu Yisheng’s name before. He was the most powerful mecha master in the Norse Republic Academy and was very good at mecha combat.
To be able to learn mecha combat techniques from such a person, he would definitely benefit greatly.
However, Ning Shi had other plans tomorrow. He had to go to the wilderness of Norse City to hunt and farm monsters to gain experience points. He wanted to level up his mecha master profession and level up the character level of Ball.
Therefore, he could only regretfully refuse. “Nico, I plan to go out of the city tomorrow. You know that I am also a butcher. I need to go out into the wild to train my body.”
Hearing Ning Shi’s words, Nico did not force him.
On the other hand, Teacher Muraka, who was inside Nico’s intelligent wristwatch, mocked once again.
“Nico, I’m begging you. Please don’t waste your energy on Ning Shi, that mediocre person. Wu Yisheng’s mecha combat skills are not the slightest bit inferior to those of the strongest mecha warriors in interstellar space.
“You begged Wu Yisheng for so long to get such a rare learning opportunity for Ning Shi, and he actually gave it up!
“The reason is that he still has to be a butcher and train his body in the wild!
“Why are you still entangled with this kind of fool?”
Nico ignored Muraka’s nagging and did not answer her.
Muraka felt bored and muttered a few more words before she stopped talking.
At 1:55 PM, when all the students had arrived, Joaquin walked to the flag platform and said loudly, “To ensure fairness, everyone will be using the same mecha for this mecha practical test.
“It’s this Tiger Cannon Mecha beside me.
“The content of the exam was sent to your accounts at noon, so everyone should already know it.
“Out of the three movements, the first one is running on the ground, which is 10 points, the second one is sliding to block the gun, which is 15 points, and the third one is flipping in the air, which is 25 points.
“After the actions are completed, the AI judge will give the score to ensure fairness.
“Let me emphasize discipline once again. When the students undergoing the assessment operate the mecha, the others must stand within a safe area and not move around randomly.
“This was to prevent accidents from happening due to mistakes in mecha control.
“Alright, the first contestant, Veronica.”
