Chapter 581: The Laboratory on the Third Basement Floor

The office was full of yin and yang, and Lu Zhou didn't want to go there after class.

He called Zhao Huan and asked her to arrange a postgraduate re-examination interview for him, and then he went to the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.

Wreckage Three had been sitting in his system space for some time since the lottery.

Almost every night before going to bed, he would enter the system space, take it out and look at it for a while. It's just a pity that what can be seen in the system space is only a projection, and the internal structure inside can't see anything.

Lu Zhou, who was eager to find out what it was, couldn't wait now.

Came to the main building of Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, and took the elevator to the sample library on the second floor of the basement.

Walking to the end of the corridor of the sample library, standing in front of a heavy alloy door, Lu Zhou reached out and entered the password on the electronic lock, then aimed his eyes at the camera on the door panel, and completed the iris recognition.

After passing a series of safety procedures, the alloy door slowly opened, giving way to a passage leading to the third underground floor.

When Lu Zhou got the "No. 1 Wreck" from the system, he considered that if he got a larger wreck in the future, he would not be able to take it out in normal situations.

So when building this institute for advanced studies, he specifically ordered the contractor to design such a hidden structure as his private laboratory when constructing the second basement floor.

Of course, in name, this place still exists as a part of the sample library, but the sample library located on the ground floor of the main building is not so commonly used.

Since the research of Jinling Institute for Advanced Study involves relatively sensitive fields, such as SG-1 superconducting magnet.

Therefore, keeping the sample library confidential will not seem so obtrusive.

Taking a step back, even if an intruder sneaks in, all the cameras and security programs here are connected to Xiaoai's server.

In the event of an intruder, it is only necessary to cut off the elevator system and seal the alloy door panel from the inner layer, which is enough to trap the intruder to death on the second basement floor.

If necessary, he can even take the initiative to shut down the air exchange system on the second basement floor...

Of course, Lu Zhou felt that this function was mostly useless.

After all, with Xiao Ai watching the elevator, ordinary people have no chance to enter the second basement floor without permission.

After passing through the alloy door leading to the third underground floor, Lu Zhou continued to walk forward.

When passing through the corridor outside the laboratory, the drone lying quietly at the door turned on the green light, flew up with two pairs of rotors, and swayed behind Lu Zhou.

Ignoring Xiao Ai who followed curiously, he stood in the middle of the empty laboratory. Lu Zhou took a deep breath, entered the system space, and selected the wreckage No. 3 in the inventory.

The next second, Lu Zhou, who left the system space, opened his eyes.

A step away in front of him, a pitch-black phantom gradually outlined the outline of the wreck, and then gradually the outline was filled with unknown substances from the inside, and gradually the shell of the wreck began to glow under the light. metallic luster...

No matter how many times he watched the process of projecting the items in the system into reality, he couldn't help but be shocked.

This means of transportation subverts the known physical laws of human beings. Even if he uses his imagination, it is difficult to figure out how the system does it.

Space teleportation? Or the three-dimensional expansion of some two-dimensional material? Or is it based on some special physical rules...

For safety reasons, before approaching this device, Lu Zhou checked its gamma value with an instrument.

After confirming that there was no radioactivity and abnormal electromagnetic wave signals, he put on white plastic gloves, took out the flashlight and tool pliers from the toolbox, and walked towards the wreckage of the suspected advanced civilization engine.

After finding the location of the fracture torn apart by the unknown object, Lu Zhou observed the interior of the wreckage with a flashlight.

Unlike the projected images seen in the system space, this time he finally saw the structure inside clearly.

Different from what he imagined, he originally thought that the interior of this device from a higher civilization would give him a sci-fi feel, but what he didn't expect was that what appeared in front of him was just a pile of cosmic garbage. Pieces of parts, and a whole bunch of torn or otherwise intact threads.

First, he took a few photos of the internal structure with a high-resolution camera. After finishing these tasks, Lu Zhou began to study, or dissect, the device with confidence.

Picking a wire with the shell stripped off, Lu Zhou squeezed the end of the wire and rubbed it lightly. The hardened wire shell quickly turned into a powdery object, exposing the slender silver wires like hair. Inner core.

"Wire? Or fiber?"

Cut off a piece of silver wire with tool pliers, Lu Zhou put it in the sample box, put a label of "sample a" on it, and briefly described the sampling location, and prepared to take it outside to make ingredients later analyze.

Then, Lu Zhou bit the flashlight with his mouth, followed the fracture on the side of the engine, and got half of his body into it.

Following the string of wires and continuing to explore upwards, Lu Zhou soon found what he wanted to find.

I saw those intricate lines finally connected to a pitch-black board.

Lu Zhou stretched out his hand and gently tugged at the silver wires, and found that they were easily torn off.

Surprised in his heart, he reached out and picked up the broken board with unknown material and purpose, and slowly climbed out of the engine.

With the light of the laboratory, Lu Zhou carefully looked at the half board in his hand, frowning slightly.

"A circuit board?"

On the surface of this board, there appears to be a layer of black paint.

I don't know if it's because of the age, or because of other reasons, but just a light touch, the black layer faded from this half of the circuit board.

Looking at the stains on the plastic gloves, Lu Zhou frowned slightly, pinched his index finger and thumb together and rubbed them gently.

Feeling the smooth and delicate texture, his heart moved slightly.

"……graphite?"

At the moment of discovering this phenomenon, a trace of excitement appeared in Lu Zhou's eyes.

carbon!

It turned out to be carbon!

There is no reason why an engineer of a higher civilization would connect a string of wires to graphite that serves no purpose.

If so inferred, these graphites should be denatured from other carbon-based materials when the device was subjected to severe shocks or high temperatures above 3,000 degrees!

Continuing to think along this line of thought, the substrate of unknown material in his hand has a high probability to be an "integrated circuit board" for placing carbon-based chips, or at least something similar!

If this conjecture is correct, the advanced civilization that owns this wreck may have already carbonized all electronic components!

The only fly in the ointment is that the most critical part of this circuit board, that is, those carbon-based electronic components including carbon-based chips, have been completely graphitized...

"It's really convenient to keep things made of carbon materials secret..."

Putting the suspected circuit board fragment into a slightly larger sample box for storage, Lu Zhou sighed silently in his heart.

However, he wasn't completely useless.

To a large extent, knowing that this technical route is feasible is already a very important piece of information in itself.

In the future, not only the eastern industry-research consortium, but also the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study will also participate in the research and development of this technology.

Thinking of this, looking at the wrecked Lu Zhou, the flame of curiosity was ignited again in his eyes.

Sure enough, his judgment was not wrong.

This thing is truly a treasure!

If only I had a helper to dig with...

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou suddenly said.

"Xiao Ai."

"Um?"

The whining drone behind him made a questioning sound.

Lu Zhou: "Do you want to have a body?"

"Body? I really want it! Master, master, is it really possible? Are you really lying to me?" Xiao Ai said excitedly, shaking from side to side in the sky.

"Um……"

Taking off his white plastic gloves, Lu Zhou stood up and thought about the problem for a while, then said, "It's a bit difficult at the moment...but I will try my best to find a way."
