I Am the Swarm

Compared to space radiation, the radiation Rowan was fighting in the lab was nothing short of pediatric. It is estimated from the data that unless he thickens the stratum corneum to more than three meters, it is possible to withstand these radiations.

With a three-meter cuticle shell, his body size will be at least 20 meters away, otherwise he will not be able to carry this armor at all, and the weight is estimated to exceed 100 tons.

With the technological level of the Rat Man, even in another 100 years, it is estimated that it will be enough to send him to the moon.

Therefore, the previous hard resistance plan is no longer feasible.

The paper that Rowan saw was about the conjecture of the planet's magnetic field for radiation protection in space. The author guesses that the planet itself has a huge protective position to defend or deflect these hazards from space radiation through the normal existence of life on the planet.

The paper ends by mentioning that he hopes to study this position to mimic a small magnetic field device that could be attached to a rocket or personal protective suit to counteract space radiation.

Through the swarm network, Rowan quickly discovered that the author of the paper was in another private laboratory of the Star Enterprise.

As a result, this rat man was suddenly entrusted with an important task without knowing the reason. Not only was he promoted to be the person in charge of a new laboratory, but he also asked for money for money, people for people, only one, and to complete the magnetic field device in his mind as soon as possible.

In Rowan's gene pool, there are now a large number of genes, and many organisms have some unique understandings of magnetic fields, but they are not systematic. Even his antigravity elytra is a way of applying a magnetic field. So, Rowan needed a sound theory to fuse them together.

From the point of view of feasibility, it is much more feasible to derive a magnetic field organ than hard resistance to space radiation.

Time has passed, and several years have passed, the spaceflight of the Rat Man has developed rapidly, the propulsion system of the rocket has been continuously improved, and they are getting closer and closer to the moon.

The year before last, they actually sent a four-clawed beast into space, but unfortunately their rocket has not yet developed a return device. After contributing a lot of data, this four-clawed beast remained in the orbit of the planet forever.

Last year, a rat man was sent to low-Earth orbit and successfully returned. Although the rat man returned with a large number of illnesses, he survived.

Rowan had a headache. He carefully studied the rat man's equipment for going to outer space. But many have no value for reference yet.

For example, the Rat Man's protective suit is divided into multiple layers, one of which is a vacuum layer, which is used to deal with the extreme temperatures in space. But Rowan had no idea how to grow a vacuum inside his body.

But there is also some good news, that is, the radiation protection technology on the Rat Man protective suit comes from the private laboratory of Star Enterprise.

The Rat Man named Karen lived up to his expectations and successfully developed a small magnetic field protection device. And with the continuous help of a large number of manpower and material resources, related technologies have been rapidly improved and made breakthroughs. In the end, it was even reduced to a metallic particle fiber material.

The outermost layer of the Rat Man's space suit is made of this material. It can form a closed loop and generate an induced current, which generates a reverse electromagnetic field from the induced electricity to prevent the radiation from penetrating.

Of course, it is impossible for Rowan to paint a layer of this material on himself. He has to use his talent to cultivate a related organ or ability based on relevant theories.

After a period of research and improvement, he was close to success.

First, he used the genes of a discharge fish, which has a specialised muscle tissue in its body, a discharge body. At the same time, there are many power storage cells in its body, which are like small tandem batteries.

When the part of the nerve that acts as the discharge hub emits a signal, the discharge body starts to discharge, and the current is connected in series through the storage cells, producing a very high voltage.

These special configurations can power small magnetic field devices.

As for the material for the construction of the magnetic field device, Rowan chose the gene of a metal snail. They are located around 3,000 meters below the seafloor. It only lives near underwater fountains and craters.

Rowan found the metal snails during a walk in the deep sea, and although they didn't taste very delicious, Rowan still took their genes.

The abdominal feet of these metal snails are covered with metal scales and have metal shells, which are very sci-fi, and their shells are naturally magnetic.

Rowan took advantage of this property to integrate metal particles into the shell, arrange and combine them, assemble a biological version of the magnetic field generator, and use the discharger to provide energy, successfully arranging a small magnetic field on the surface of the body.

This small magnetic field not only successfully resisted radiation penetration, but also gave Rowan a surprise. Due to the locking of the magnetic field, it is difficult for the heat in his body to dissipate, which is equivalent to a constant temperature around him.

The low temperature problem in outer space that had troubled Rowan for a long time was solved so unpreparedly. Rowan didn't know what caused this result, and could only classify it as a mutation that occurred during evolution.

But this device also has a disadvantage~www.readwn.com~ that must be ingested in a sufficient amount of minerals in order to generate. If you want to popularize in the insect swarm, you must add relevant ingredients to the recipe of the queen.

Perhaps the creep could also be improved to incorporate the genes of the metal snails. Because it has the ability to decompose rocks and minerals, maybe this gene will be very suitable for it, allowing the creep to acquire the ability to extract minerals.

The problems of anaerobic, low temperature, and space radiation were solved one by one, and Rowan's progress to space took a big step. As long as the rest of the energy acquisition problem is solved, he will evolve into a space creature, and the swarm will follow.

Another year has passed, and the research on the rocket propulsion engine of the Rat Man has fallen into a bottleneck and can only go back to the old way. That is to increase the number of thrusters, from the initial 1+4 to 1+6 to 1+8, and the flight altitude is getting closer and closer to the moon.

This year, Rowan also read many research papers. At the same time, he discovered a new use for swarm networks. He can intercept a certain memory of a rat-man intelligence and clone it. It felt like a book was shoved into his head, and he needed to choose something useful from it. Although it still took a lot of time, it was much faster than he thought.

The disadvantage is that this kind of interception can only be all memories in a certain period of time, and it is better if it is obsessed with research. For some Rat people with rich emotional experience, the scene was simply unsightly.

So Rowan took a lot of effort to completely annihilate the cloned memory, and secretly warned himself that he should do this kind of thing less in the future.

However, after a year of study, he has some ideas on how to draw energy in space.
