Chapter 481 Dismantle, The Mysteries Of The Modular Technology!
A self-proclaimed genius hypocrite: Exposed to astronautics at the age of nine, entered the School of the Gifted Young, a “youth class” in the University of Science and Technology of China with a 5+2 mode of study at the age of thirteen, acquired his Ph.D. at the age of twenty, achieved the maximum points of the Science Citation Index continuously at the age of twenty-three, recruited as a super talent to study at the largest research base at the age of twenty-eight, single-handedly promoted the progress of astronautics at the age of thirty-four, became the top research scientist of the expeditionary force and participated in the construction of the satellite base on the Wasteland at the age of forty.
A true prodigy: The prodigy landed an entry-level role from being an outsider in a span of ten days. The prodigy progressed from an entry-level position to an expert in less than a month.
It was not necessary to expound on the progress of the prodigy, nor to be lauded for his achievement.
It was a wonderful feeling.
Lu Kuan’s feelings came out of nowhere as he watched Su Mo dismantle the engine seriously.
It was the second day of the fourth month, four hours and fifty minutes in the morning at that time.
Hope One arrived at the place they planned to disembark before dawn.
Su Mo wanted to minimize the time spent in doing research, so he took the opportunity to commence his work while everyone was still fast asleep.
It was already the second hour since Su Mo was engrossed in his work.
However, Lu Kuan could not distinguish the difference between the first hour of Su Mo’s movements and the second hour.
Truth to be told, if it were not for Su Mo’s biological motion, Lu Kuan would have thought that the man in front of him was a robot!
“Lu Kuan, I need the No.13 plier, disassembly tool, hand-held electric arc, and the oxide film. Please pass them to me in the right sequence!”
Upon hearing Su Mo’s request,Lu Kuan immediately passed the tools to Su Mo in the sequence he requested.
There used to be a discussion on who to perform the dismantling when faced with an unknown object.
At that time, everyone chose Ai Jianfeng to dismantle the mechanical components of a machine.
It was a pity everyone changed their mind after Su Mo entered.
Su Mo’s movements were limited by his robotic arm. In the virtual world, Su Mo just could not compare with Ai Jianfeng who had been a professional in this field for decades.
However, in the outside world, Su Mo could perform far better with his agility.
The human skeleton is made up of 206 bones and a total of 639 muscles in the human body, providing unparalleled body support, enabling Su Mo to achieve accuracy and precision similar to the machine tool.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Su Mo currently possessed the potential to become a Level 8 fitter.
His nimbleness had exceeded the progress of most machine tools on Earth.
“What a monster. This is almost like a max-level human participating in the wilderness survival field trip for the students of an elementary school.”
Upon hearing a loud ripping noise, Lu Kuan immediately took his mind off his racing thoughts and lowered himself down to receive the parts Su Mo had dismantled.
Simultaneously, his mind connected directly with virtual reality and visualized a well-equipped laboratory.
“Coordinating module grade 3. Transmitting the data now.”
“Zhuo Junfan, Ou Yangguo, please hurry your analysis up!”
Both of them were focused on their analysis and merely nodded without turning around.
Once the data transmission was completed, Lu Kuan hurriedly exited the virtual realm.
“Su Mo, there is one last component from the coordination module. Should we dismantle the other parts?”
“It will be a disaster if we dismantle the last component of the module and the machine stops functioning!”
Su Mo nodded his head in agreement and exclaimed, “very well!”
Even though he had the access to the system evaluation, he was unsure of what to dismantle next.
Su Mo followed the advice given and began to dismantle the second module which was the control module.
Unfortunately, once the control module grade 1 was dismantled from its main module, the engine power was abruptly reduced by 30%.
“This is not good. The engine is still losing power. You can’t dismantle it anymore!”
“Dismantle the last component of the coordination module and let’s see whether there will be any response!’
The engine power of Hope One would usually remain at approximately 60% by night. Although the 30% loss of engine power did not cause a major blackout, it still led to a shortage of power supply in the ship.
The power supply of the crew’s cabin on the first level was cut off while the power supply was redirected to the temporary research lab and the warning module.
As soon as Lu Kuan ended his conversation, Su Mo immediately shifted his focus to the last component of the coordination module and began to dismantle it carefully.
Unfortunately, after the last component of the coordination module was dismantled, the engine power was reduced to 40%!
“This is bad. This engine operates on a closed-loop algorithm to perform a logic check. When we remove the outer layer of the components, the system will automatically detect and troubleshoot. These components will be temporarily removed from being detected. However, we have removed too many components, the engine will deploy another logic check and reduce the power to ensure the stability of the engine.”
“Su Wei, come and help please!”
The vibration was similar to Parkinson’s tremors. Lu Kuan shocked himself with electricity, hastily left his robotic body, and returned to the glass brain box.
Su Wei who stood behind and awaited orders, took his place swiftly.
Su Wei took a U-disk from the storage space, plugged it into the port of the engine, and started tapping away.
As she tapped, numerous green characters flashed across the screen and returned to its quiet state afterward.
The good news was that the engine stopped losing its power and started increasing to 50%.
“Su Mo, our data breach can only delay the performance of the logic evaluation mechanism for thirty minutes. After thirty minutes, no matter how much we have dismantled, as long as we didn’t reassemble, the power of the engine may instantly plunge to 0%. It may initiate its destruct sequence!”
“Quick!”
“We have to scan all data of the modules within thirty minutes!”
Su Wei tried to buy time and this was the only thing she could help with as a top computer scientist.
Su Mo immediately lowered his head and began to dismantle the engine roughly in the limited time he had left.
Su Mo tried to remember everything from the screws, snap fasteners, plastic pegs, and even how they were fastened.
After dismantling and keying in the data, he aimed to reassemble them.
Su Mo could work much faster after ignoring certain steps.
His fingers worked nimbly as though he was arranging flowers. He could locate every opening and dismantle a component without damaging the other components.
He could easily figure out how some parts were seamlessly connected and dismantled them skillfully.
Earlier, Su Mo took two hours to dismantle the entire coordination module.
He could dismantle the control module, changed eight components in the module, and laid them neatly on the floor in fourteen minutes only.
“Su Mo, why don’t you take a break? We still have sixteen minutes left.”
He was under tremendous pressure to complete the work.
Su Wei noticed Su Mo had turned deathly pale and his forehead was beaded with sweat.
It was as though an unathletic person had just participated in intensive cardio training.
Su Wei could tell that Su Mo was in a terrible state without the need for the auxiliary robotic scan.
“No, we don’t have much time!”
“Pass me the tools. I need the 45-caliber conversion knife, shock arc welder, and a hot melt glue stick.”
“Quick!”
As he yelled for the tools he needed, he drank some psychic energy-water he retrieved from his storage space.
While lying on his stomach, Su Mo took the tools from Su Wei and performed the first incision on the last two remaining modules.
Just as Su Mo predicted, there was an immediate power dip after the first incision was performed.
The power that was originally at 50% capacity had plunged to 20% in a matter of five seconds.
This led to a blackout in the ship except for the indoor lighting at the third level and the virtual reality.
Fortunately, the power capacity did not plunge further until Su Mo completed the dismantling of the output modules. The power capacity then gradually dropped to 0%.
“Captain Su Mo, it has been detected that the power supply stopped working. The OS has automatically activated the use of emergency power supply. Currently, the power supply is supported by the…indoor lighting!”
The virtual reality was integrated with independent backup power. Hope One was also equipped with a 50 kilowatts electricity reserve.
Su Mo slowed down and exhaled deeply when he held the last output module.
“That will do. Go do your research using virtual reality. I’ll take it from here!”
“Alright!”
Without further ado, Su Wei returned to the glass brain box, back into the realms of virtual reality.
The engine room went quiet all of a sudden. The only sound in the room was that of the beeping sound the robot made every minute.
“How amazing it is to see the modules being assembled in this manner.”
“The input and output modules are not entirely independent of one another and this resembles…human arm?
Without any pressure, Su Mo was able to relax and his brain became more active.
It was different from what they had imagined.
The structure of the modular technology bore resemblance to the structure of the human body.
The human arm could push, pull, raise, drag and perform other various movements by using the same joints and muscles.
This was similar to what the engine could accomplish using the input and output modules.
Once foreign objects enter the input terminal, the engine would not analyze the object using a singular module. Rather, it would integrate and activate all modules to complete the operation.
This guaranteed the structural integrity and ductility of the modules.
“Currently, we only have the Civil Type II engine. Does it mean that the Civil Type III or the Military Type engine models have been equipped with more modules and there will be a radical reform in the mobilization strategy?”
He quickly dismantled the last input module of the engine and keyed in the data swiftly before entering the virtual realm.
There was enough equipment for everyone to carry out their research in the virtual realm.
Furthermore, their experiments would not cause any harm to the outside world.
Besides not being able to simulate the physical condition of the outside world to perform a complete reaction, the virtual realm was indeed a perfect location for research purposes!
