Chapter 161 This is probably the most expensive AK in the world

   "MMP!"

  The alloy door panel trembled for a while, looking at the things lying on the conveyor belt, Chu Guang couldn't help cursing.

  33 primary blind boxes, 22 lollipops were actually opened, which almost made his nose crooked.

   Fortunately, half of these lollipops can be buffed, and his little players will probably spend money to buy them, and they lose but not completely.

   In addition, there are 3 cans, 2 barrels of instant noodles, 1 pack of compressed biscuits and other reserve grains, and 2 bottles of soy sauce and 2 bottles of vinegar.

  To be honest, since the Pioneer came here, Chu Guang has not been so interested in the food drawn from the blind box.

   Do you still need to eat canned food?

  There are those sand sculptors, just tell them what they want to eat.

  The only thing that made his eyes shine was the palm-sized transparent packaging bag that was vacuumed at the end.

   It looks like it contains seeds?

   "What the **** is this?"

  Chu Guang picked up the bag of seeds, and just held it in his hands curiously for a while, when a light blue label floated out from the side.

  【β-712 Cotton Seeds: As the name suggests, these seeds can grow cotton. After genetic engineering design, the yield per plant of this variety is larger, and the growth cycle is shorter. Traditional soil planting cannot highlight the advantages of genetic improvement. It is recommended to use soilless cultivation technology for concentrated planting to ensure seed purity. 】

   Well, it turned out to be cotton seeds.

  Although it is questionable whether this thing can be considered as food, these cotton seeds are still very useful for shelter 404.

   I heard that cotton can be harvested once a year, and it takes several months to mature.

  I don't know how long it will take for the seeds drawn from the blind box to mature. Chu Guang plans to find a little player who loves farming and throw the seeds to him for a try.

  Although the outpost now has devil silk, cotton still plays an irreplaceable role in terms of warmth and economy.

   Cotton, in particular, is produced in large enough, steady yields to be versatile, both for weaving and stuffing.

   In the absence of large-scale production of man-made fibers, cotton can at least solve the dressing needs of some players.

   After all, the number of blue coats is limited, and players cannot always wear them.

  For example, when hunting or going out to do missions, most players will also change their clothes while changing their equipment.

   "Speaking of which, I don't know if this intermediate blind box can produce living things."

   Having opened so many cans of pork, it would be great if only one pig could be opened sometime.

   It’s really not good, chicken and duck are also fine.

   Milk is occasionally drunk, and Chu Guang has not eaten eggs for a long time.

   Not counting bird eggs.

  …

   Around 5pm.

  The marines led by Lu Yang returned from the south and arrived at the outpost almost at the same time as the two light trucks escorting the machine tool.

   At the same time, the good news that "the fuel rod has been found" arrived together.

  Lu Yang, wearing power armor, walked up to Chu Guang, tapped his index finger on the side of the helmet, lifted the mask, and said with a hearty smile.

  “…Thanks to the guide you recommended to us, we finally found the fuel rods we need. There is still 93% of the energy left, which is quite impressive, enough for a long time!”

  Honestly speaking, this may be good news for the Pioneer, but for Chu Guang, it is not something to be happy about.

   After all, for the current shelter No. 404, the Pioneer is like a thigh. In theory, the longer they stay, the better for themselves.

  However, seeing the hearty smile on Captain Lu's face, Chu Guang was sincerely happy for him.

   "Congratulations! After searching for so long, I finally found it."

   "Yeah, it's really not easy." Lu Yang said with emotion on his face, and said in a complicated tone, "We thought we could find it in two or three days, but we didn't expect it to take so long."

   In fact, about three days ago, they had found a pre-war carbon dioxide trap-on the twenty-fifth floor of a hotel.

  However, it is a pity that when they worked hard to take down the target, they found that it had already been there many years ago.

   Not only were the fuel rods that were supposed to be plugged into the generator empty, but even the recyclable materials inside were looted.

   Various signs indicate that a group of survivors once lived there during the 0-10 years of the Wasteland Era. They stayed briefly in the hotel and spent a hard time using the glucose, starch and other resources produced by the carbon dioxide trap.

  After the CO2 trap stopped working due to CO2 levels falling below the threshold, they unplugged the fuel rods of the backup generator used to power the hotel facility, and eventually died after the fuel rods were completely exhausted.

   This is also a very normal thing.

   After all, it is now the 211th year of the Wasteland Era, and the garbage they can pick up is nothing more than the leftovers picked up by others, the leftovers, or the lack of strength and conditions that did not allow them to pick up at that time.

   It takes a little bit of luck to survive in this world.

   Not to mention picking up trash?

  Chu Guang: "Are you leaving?"

  Lujan nodded and said.

   "Well, we have been here for half a month, and now the damaged equipment has been repaired, the fuel rods have been found, and the resource inventory is full... It's time to go back on the road."

  There is no permanent banquet in the world. The Pioneer has traveled such a long distance, but it is not here to help the poor. They have more important missions to complete.

  With nuclear fuel and sufficient resources, it is estimated that this journey can go very far.

  If the situation is optimistic, there should be no need to stop for the second half of the journey.

  Hearing the expected answer, Chu Guang sighed softly.

   "Although it was a short period of time, I still miss you guys."

   "Me too," looking at Chu Guang, Lu Yang said sincerely, "I have learned a lot from you, including your noble qualities, which shocked me even more."

   "Let's go to each other!" Chu Guang said with a smile, "Your skills also impress us! Let's save the farewell to the day of your departure. Don't let the atmosphere be so sad on this day worth celebrating."

  Lu Yang also smiled.

   "By the way, there are still a lot of interesting things left in the carbon dioxide trap we found. I will send you the coordinates later. If you are interested, you can go and recycle it."

   Chu Guang asked subconsciously.

   "What's in there?"

   Lu Yang smiled mysteriously, but did not answer him directly.

   "If I told you, wouldn't it be less fun to open the box?"

  Looking at Captain Lu who was trying to cheat, Chu Guang had a helpless expression on his face.

   Is it a blind box again?

   He has unpacked enough blind boxes today.

  However, although Captain Lu did not say what was there, Chu Guang still guessed a lot of information from his mysterious smile.

   There should be a lot of good things put there.

  This man probably wanted to surprise him.

   "Okay, I'll take two people there to have a look tomorrow morning."

  …

  The Pioneer will depart within three days.

  After exchanging greetings with Chu Guang, Captain Lu led the marines back on the road and escorted the fuel rods back toward the Pioneer.

  Old Luca, who had been waiting by the side for a long time, saw that the manager had finished his work, so he came from the direction of the truck, looked at him and said respectfully.

   "My lord, your cargo has been delivered, where do you want to unload it?"

  Chu Guang glanced left and right, and finally landed on the main building of the nursing home. After several renovations there, the quality of the rooms is still quite good.

   At least it is much better than the newly built brick house outside.

   "Just put it on the first floor of the nursing home. You can find a bigger room and store it. I'll go over and have a look later."

  Old Luca nodded respectfully.

   "Yes, my lord."

   Machine tools are bulky and heavy.

   Out of careful consideration, old Luca first asked the players in the woodworking hut to make a few brackets for unloading, and arranged for four players of the strength system to successfully unload it from the truck.

   There is also a small episode here.

Since the machine tool had already been assembled when it was delivered, the whole machine could not pass through the gate of the nursing home. Chu Guang had no choice but to choose a room near the outside, and asked someone to tear down half of the wall, so he could lift the machine tool inside .

  Silver metallic paint surface, boxy, angular shell, looks like a large freezer from a distance. However, its internal structure is far from being as simple as it looks on the surface.

  Chu Guang briefly glanced at the manual.

  The processing room has a volume of 1.5 cubic meters and can process materials with a maximum size of 1X1X1m.

Due to the particularity of magnetic confinement plasma processing, the device has high requirements on the processing environment and requires a near-vacuum environment. Therefore, after the device is sent into the material inlet, it will first enter the buffer chamber between the two airlocks for injection protection. The gas is evacuated into an approximate vacuum, and then sent into the processing chamber.

  The operation process is quite rigorous, even cumbersome.

  However, relatively speaking, this device has no requirements for its own environment. It can be used as long as it is plugged in, and there is no need for Chu Guang to set up a clean room to serve it.

  Looking at the high-tech machine tool behind the broken arm, Chu Guang couldn't help asking Xiao Qi to take a photo of it.

  This is wasteland!

  The deployment of the device is completed, and then it is powered on.

  Chu Guang carefully checked the rated power of this device. When he saw the unit clearly, he wondered if he had read it wrong.

   "Megawatts?! Damn...does it consume so much power?"

  According to the information Chu Guang found on the Internet, the power consumption of general machine tools is only at the KW level.

  However, the power consumption of such a device with an area of ​​less than 3 square meters has reached the MW level!

   But after thinking about it, Chu Guang felt relieved.

  After all, this thing operates on plasmas of hundreds of millions of degrees. Not only does it need to generate a magnetic field that confines them, but it also needs to precisely arrange them into a single-atom knife that can cut materials.

  Such terrifying control, not to mention making a machine tool, is enough to ignite a fusion reactor. If you think about it this way, it can be regarded as relatively energy-saving without reaching the GW-level power.

  Chu Guang even suspects that if this thing is slightly modified, and the working gas is replaced with isotopes of helium or hydrogen, it may really be used as a nuclear reactor.

  It’s just that if you use it that way, it’s more or less like burning pianos and cooking cranes...

  In short, fortunately, Captain Lu gave him two cold fusion batteries earlier.

  Otherwise, the 10kw firewood generator he bought from Liszt earlier, combined with the one seized from the old leech, would not be able to drive this big power consumer.

  Chu Guang groped for a while, and found the socket of the emergency power supply near the wiring port, just enough to insert a general-purpose cold fusion battery into it.

   Turn on the power.

   Signal lights are on!

  Looking at the touch screen that was gradually lighting up in front of him, Chu Guang touched his chin with great interest and studied it carefully.

   "Speaking of which, how does this thing work?"

   There seems to be an instruction manual on the screen.

   Just as Chu Guang was about to open it, Xiao Qi’s voice suddenly came from upstairs.

   "Master, if you don't know how to use it, Xiaoqi can help you."

  Hearing the voice from the third floor, Chu Guang looked surprised, went outside and raised his head to ask.

   "Are you still using this?"

Xiao Qi: "Theoretically, it shouldn't be too difficult. This kind of machine tool has a high degree of automation. You only need to fill in the preset processing parameters, and then put in the materials, and you don't have to worry about the rest. I believe that if the owner reads the manual If it's over, it will definitely be able to operate, Xiao Qi just helped you simplify the process... By the way, Master, can you take Xiao Qi over to have a look first?"

   "Wait a minute, I'll go back to the refuge to search for some blueprints, and you can try to process them for me!"

   After finishing speaking, Chu Guang turned around and went back to the shelter without waiting for Xiao Qi to speak.

  Occasionally, there will be some big hands on the official website forum, who will throw some blueprints they don’t know where they got in the discussion area, and fight with others.

Some classic firearms such as AK, Mosin Nagant, kar98, sks, and Type 56 have everything from GIF animations of internal structures to professional drawings marked with part sizes. They were all silently preserved.

  Intuition told him that these things would definitely have a chance to be used.

   And now, this opportunity really came.

   Picking out a handful of AK47 design drawings, Chu Guang then went to the warehouse to fetch a few steel ingots that were reasonably sized and shaped.

  Although the quality of the steel produced by No. 81 Iron and Steel Factory is very average, these piles of steel ingots are the reserve materials that the team of cattle and horses looted from a private shelter.

  It is perfect for processing barrels and receivers!

  The gate is closed, and the CNC machine tool starts to work as the material is input into the buffer chamber from the feed port.

   In front of the hot plasma, the solid steel is like a piece of mud, which is easily dismantled into pieces.

Chu Guang was surprised to find that this equipment can not only process multiple geometric surfaces of the same part, but also can form 8 plasma blades through pre-programmed design, which can cut in different depths from multiple angles, even It is to cut multiple parts of different sizes and geometric shapes from the same piece of material, so as to minimize the leftovers!

  Because the AK rifle does not require high precision parts, the processing time is not too long.

   Not counting the time for the machine to start, Chu Guang waited for about ten or twenty minutes before all the processing procedures were completed.

  The finished parts and the cut waste are sent out from the discharge port and placed separately.

Although it is processed by hundreds of millions of degrees of plasma, because there is very little working fluid used for cutting, the temperature of the processed workpiece does not rise much, only forty or fifty degrees, which minimizes the temperature change and resulting in machining accuracy errors.

  According to the description in the manual, if the precision of the parts is required to reach the nanometer level, the temperature of the finished workpiece can even be made exactly the same as when it is fed into the feed port.

   It's just that the time spent in that way will also increase exponentially.

  Chu Guang assembled the parts according to the drawings, and soon got an AK-47 without wooden **** and handguard.

  Considering the hidden costs of production power consumption, materials and converted into technology, this is probably the most expensive AK in the world.

  Xiao Qi: "Master."

  Chu Guang, who was on his head excitedly, had no time to pay attention to it, so he casually said something perfunctory.

"What's wrong?"

  Xiao Qi: "Xiao Qi always feels that... this machine tool doesn't seem to be used to produce such rough things."

  Chu Guang said without hesitation: "I know, I just want to try whether this thing works or not."

  If you can make guns, you can make tools for making guns.

   When the entire production line is reproduced, will his players have a hand?

  At that time, when the production capacity of steel is increased, the production capacity of rifles will also increase. Everyone is a good brother of 50 yuan—oh no, it should be said that 100 yuan is a conscript.

  One life for three days, one gun a day, the "BUG" that the weapon store could not replenish in time was completely fixed, no longer have to worry about guns being more expensive than people!

  Playing with the AK in his hand, Chu Guang touched left and right, looking excitedly.

  Unfortunately there is no matching bullet.

   Otherwise he would really like to shoot twice.

   If there is no problem with using it, then throw it in the warehouse and sell it as a limited edition skin. After all, it is linked with the dream of CF, so selling it for 500 silver coins is not too much, right?

  Xiao Qi quietly watched from the side, not daring to speak.

  I always feel that his master is not very smart.

   Thankfully it’s not every day…
