1232 stone eggs

"Boss, you'd better take a look at this." Ruan Peng's communication went directly to Ye Fei's ears.

"What's the situation?" Ye Fei asked in surprise.

The reduction in the number of personnel required for warships is exciting news for the military leadership, but not necessarily for ordinary captains, and the most troublesome part is that everyone is doing their job, and it is difficult to start when temporary personnel need to be transferred.

Although Ye Fei supplemented some personnel before leading the fleet to set off, the main work after arriving at Betelgeuse was also completed by robots, but no matter how hard-working robots are, they are not those mechanical civilizations that have long been unknown to where to run, even if they strictly follow the procedures, they still need human beings to control and supervise.

Ye Fei didn't have a few extra manpower in his hands at all, so he had no choice but to leave those newcomers and unfamiliar people on the battleship, and Ruan Peng was in charge of the lead shell smelting factory under his arrangement; Xia Zhuoyan is in charge of the robot lead shell factory, and even Yi Qi, who has only entered the Xinyuan a few days earlier than the others, is alone in charge of a lead shell factory that produces spaceships.

said that he was responsible, but in fact there was not much actual work that they needed, Ye Fei couldn't figure out what was wrong with Ruan Peng, and he actually needed to see it in person.

Ruan Peng's news also made the other people on the bridge prick up their ears, especially Ji Xiaotong.

A few people who have been assigned new positions don't have to stare at the bridge, Ji Xiaotong was depressed for several days because he couldn't see Yi Qi, and because his recent love fluctuated greatly, Ye Fei felt that he was not very stable, so he was not reused by Captain Ye, and he was the only one of the four bridge officers on the Xinyuan who still stayed on the bridge.

If Ye Fei hadn't arranged Yi Qi to the ship-building factory. Ji Xiaotong would never have any ideas, but after making a comparison, he suddenly felt that his future was bleak.

Ruan Peng, who got the answer, immediately shared an instant perspective with Ye Fei.

The light on the screen is a little dim, and you can faintly see the background of a large group of robots busy back and forth, and in the center of the picture are three round stone balls of basically equal height, basically the same shape, and basically the same color.

"What is this?" Ye Fei was slightly looking forward to it, "Have you discovered a new superweight element?" ”

"I don't know what it is." Ruan Peng said sullenly, "I was sent the first one this morning, and the robot in charge of sorting the ore threw it out at that time, and now it's almost noon." I haven't figured out what this thing is. Unexpectedly, the mining ship sent two more at once. ”

Ye Fei, who was originally just curious, finally became a little interested when he heard this: "What's so special about this thing?" ”

Compared with the busy robots around the stone ball, the height of the stone ball can be easily determined, that is, the diameter is about seven to eight meters.

Distinguishing various materials is one of the most basic functions of construction robots, and all the material characteristics known to humans are stored in zĂ i. Don't look at the construction robot, I don't know what it means to think. Controllable programs can help them tell what is valuable. What is of low value, and what is worthless.

These three large stone balls look inconspicuous, but the fact that the robot sent three back in a row is telling.

"Except for what can be seen. I also weighed their mass, and the difference between the three stone balls was no more than thirty kilograms, not like a natural formation, but rather as if it had been carved out on purpose. Ruan Peng said.

"Didn't analyze the composition of the stone ball?" Ye Xin asked with satisfaction and doubts.

"After analysis, the main ingredient is carbon, but ......" the expression on Ruan Peng's face seemed to see a sow climbing a tree, "but the hardness of this thing is higher than that of diamonds, I think it is likely to be an allotrope of carbon...... An allotrope that no one has ever discovered. ”

There are certainly many substances in the universe that are harder than diamonds, but until now, only the light blue crystals of the four superheavy elements are harder than diamonds, and it is a pity that the Republic has never found a use for blue crystals.

"Is it just a gem?" Ye Fei was a little surprised.

"I hope not." Ruan Peng said.

"What do you mean by reporting this to me......"

"I wanted to go to the site and see for myself and figure out what this thing was." Ruan Peng finally said his purpose.

He was in charge of the smelting plant, but all the work was done remotely, and he didn't need to go to the lead shell factory at all, he could do all the work while lying in his dormitory.

"Nope." Ye Fei refused without thinking, "The combat armor can't block such a strong radiation outside the ship at all, you stay honest with me!" ”

Combat armor is okay to deal with space radiation under normal conditions, but in a real high-radiation environment, which layer of thin armor can resist? I'm afraid that before Ruan Peng flew into the lead shell factory, he was roasted by the strong radiation.

"Boss, we've built so many robots, and it's not difficult to build a set of radiation-resistant armor......" Ruan Peng pleaded.

"No, it's just no." Ye Fei didn't compromise at all, "Stay in the battleship, no matter how you toss, it's definitely not okay to get out of the ship!" ”

If they can get out of the ship, can Professor Xie and his team stay in the battleship honestly?

Radiation resistant armor can't be built, but there is absolutely no technical difficulty in building a set of mecha about the size of an engineering robot, but after it is built, what if Professor Xie asks to take a mecha out of the ship?

This opening can't be opened!

What's more, Ye Fei knew that Ruan Peng, this kid, didn't know anything about smelting and materials science, and this kid wanted to take a look at the lead shell factory, maybe what purpose he had.

Ye Fei's resolute refusal made Ruan Peng's face scratch his heart and liver in pain, and suddenly the expression on his face froze as if he had pressed the pause button, and then showed a stunned look: "Boss, I just cut the shell of the stone balls over there, and found that the internal components of those three balls are not only carbon, but also hydrogen and oxygen, as if they are ...... Should...... It's an organic matter! ”

"Organics?" Ye Fei's face almost twisted into a twist, "Are you kidding?" ”

It has only been more than 200 years since the supernova exploded, and the space environment is sometimes good and bad, so he doesn't think it's strange to find anything in the hellish place of Betelgeuse, except for organic matter...... Can this thing be synthesized by a supernova explosion?

Even if there was an ecological planet here, the creatures on the planet were relatively strong, but no matter how strong the creatures were, could they fight against the ultra-high temperature measured in 10,000 degrees when the supernova exploded?

Even planets are only a little debris left, any organic matter, will be 100% decomposed into atoms in the high temperature, even if the cosmic creatures, it is only a stronger creature, when it is a fire phoenix? (To be continued......)
