Rebirth: Divine Machine-Making Master

Chapter 34: Can It Really Be Made?

“This is meteorite iron, and it is rarely found on Earth,” said Elrond.

“Kid, it’s not the time for you to show off your knowledge. It’s your assessment time.”

Elrond nodded and started to search for materials again.

Soon, the table was filled with materials.

The mechanical arm seemed easy to build, but the manufacturing process was extremely complicated.

The first thing was to come out with a design blueprint. Without a design blueprint, the designer would not be able to make anything just by looking at the materials alone.

Creation and manufacturing were two different concepts. When faced with a pile of car parts, an engineer could easily assemble a car, provided he had a blueprint or a design concept in his mind.

However, if one needed to create something out of nothing, countless trials were needed before the experiment would succeed. There was a possibility that this item could not be manufactured, or it may even take several generations of hard work to materialize this.

As for Elrond? His current level of machinery was cultivated through reading a large number of mechanical books, information sheets, and mastered only after multiple practices.

He was most familiar with the manufacturing of the mechanical arm.

Having a bionic mechanical arm was equivalent to having an extra hand.

There was an ancient legend about deities having three heads and six arms. Their divine powers were boundless and invincible.

It was the same for Elrond. If all the six mechanical arms were equipped with guns, they could seal off all enemies who were hiding in his blind spots.

When facing dozens of enemies, they also formed a firepower suppression.

When Zate noticed that Elrond did not even design a blueprint, he crossed his arms and muttered, “He doesn’t even have a blueprint. What can he build?”

What he didn’t know was the so-called blueprint had already been stored inside Elrond’s brain long ago.

The second key point to creating a mechanical arm was the power source.

A mechanical arm could neither use an ordinary power source nor a battery.

It required a type of complex nuclear energy.

The source of energy required a complicated calculation formula, a reactor, and a small particle collision reactor.

The main source of energy came from light energy conversion.

Sunlight was converted into nuclear energy, and stored in the arms of the mechanical arm or the palm.

Iron Man’s steel armor was full of small nuclear reactors.

The palms, arms, shoulders, back, knees, and soles of the feet had small nuclear reactors.

When Elrond watched Marvel movies, he discovered how Iron Man could sustain in a drawn-out battle with Thanos.

The reason was that he was not using human strength.

With this small nuclear reactor, the mechanical arm would have an endless flow of energy. A situation where the energy was depleted, causing the arm to be immobile would not exist.

Three major technical difficulties had to be solved for this to succeed. The small particle collider for the nuclear reactor had to be compressed to the size of a thumb.

The energy conversion light plate was required to withstand high temperatures. So the mixed material used should be aviation-grade.

The meteorite iron was extremely suitable.

Meteorite iron, which had descended normally on the planet, had passed through the friction of the atmospheric layer. All that was left were essence, heat resistance, high-temperature resistance, and an excellent grade of toughness.

Initially, Elrond was worried that he could not find any suitable materials even if he could make a mechanical arm.

The identity of that tall and thin old man was extraordinary.

“He must have recognized me. Otherwise, Zate wouldn’t give me such a hard time,” Elrond muttered to himself softly.

He wasn’t sure if it was just a coincidence or if they already knew that he was coming.

He was more inclined to the first possibility. After all, Zate wasn’t any ordinary old man. It was only natural that he was acquainted with powerful people.

However, Elrond had not expected the master mechanic to propose such a simple test for him.

His assessment was to manufacture an artificial arm and implant it for Godric. Wasn’t that giving him a chance to display his strength and do Godric a favor simultaneously?

The six major countries and New Life Organization were enemies.

The enemy of a friend was an enemy.

The friend of a friend was a friend.

Friends were friends while enemies remained as enemies.

“They probably have a good sense of propriety, so that’s why they did not arrest me immediately.”

Elrond was still unaware that he was on the international arrest list by New Life Organization.

However, Godric was different. He was one of the first people to receive news of New Life Organization’s wanted list.

New Life Organization had never placed anyone under an international arrest warrant since they started. However, they were issuing the bounty as 150,000 dollars. That was a huge sum of money.

Godric instantly recognized Elrond when the latter first stepped into the courtyard.

But he did not expose Elrond’s identity.

The only thing on his mind was that the security at Wisdernia’s borders had to be tightened. How could they allow people to smuggle in so easily?

Elrond had gone to the club and found a few women to accompany him.

“Young people are so active. I’m so envious,” Godric muttered softly.

As for the third point, the task was so difficult that many people could not comprehend it, even if they spent their whole lives trying.

If one could comprehend the third condition of creating a mechanical arm, that person would definitely become a mythical-level surgeon.

Elrond did not use this method on his own body.

It involved the connection of the nerves.

The nerve connection between the body and the machine was the world’s trans-era technology.

With such skills, one could transplant a paw onto one’s hand and walk with it.

One would be able to transplant one’s head onto another body.

If there was enough time, Elrond could join the organs of various animals together to form a new creature.

This was the difficulty of creating a mechanical arm.

In order for these nerves to connect with the mechanical arm, one’s hair and fingernails were required to act as a medium.

He walked towards Godric and said, “If I tell you that I can manufacture a mechanical arm for you, are you willing to coordinate with me?”

“Of course.”

Godric was also stunned. He did not know what this young man, who was on New Life Organization’s wanted list, wanted to do.

“Alright then, please shave off all your hair.”

“Pfft…”

Zate spat out the water in his mouth. He patted his chest to ease his coughing and said, “Kid, are you joking? I asked you to manufacture a mechanical arm, why do you want his hair for? Moreover, why do you need so much hair?”

“The most difficult part of a mechanical arm is the connection between the nerves of the body and the machine.

“It is difficult to connect the arm to the blood vessels or nerves of the body. That kind of arm would only work for three months, and it will stop working.

“But hair is the blood of the human body, and fingernails are the bones. These two things are called materials and non-materials. What are material and non-material? In simple terms, material is something that is part of the human body.

“As for non-material, it is things from your body which would not cause any pain when you cut it off.

“This is the difference between material and non-material.

“Hence, these are the best nerve connector bridge.

“After the material is processed, it can connect to one’s flesh and blood. Whereas for non-materials, it serves as a link to the lifeless mechanical arm. In this way, it forms the perfect link.

“It is just a basic requirement to get all of his hair. It is definitely not enough and I will need to divide the hair further.

“There are too many connecting links related to an arm incision, possibly a hundred thousand of them.

“If it is possible, it would be best to use all his hair on his head and body. The effect would be the best.”

When Elrond finished his explanation, everyone was dumbfounded.

Zate’s eyes widened, and his mouth was agape, but he didn’t rebuke Elrond. “What he said is right. But can a mechanical arm be made in this way?”
