Chapter 26: Chapter 26 Titanium Conch
In the waters one nautical mile away from the volcanic island, there is a slender cone lying across. This is the finished product designed by Huo Gu after racking his brains.
The cone has reached eight meters in length, and its mass is not comparable to that of the previous cell cluster. Even in the surging waves, it is only slightly shaking.
This kind of creature, in the microbiosphere of the ancient world, was still in the microbial stage. This can already be regarded as the category of 'divine beast'. In addition to looking up, there is only looking up.
At the end of the cone, there are several tentacles formed by a combination of muscle cells and carbon nanofibers with suction cups.
The function and principle of the suction cup are consistent with the tentacle suction cup of cephalopods. It is to achieve the adsorption effect of objects by secreting mucus and creating a vacuum environment in the suction cup. It is used to adsorb objects. In turn, the body can be fixed to an object, and by the way, it can also grasp the direction at high speed.
There are six tentacles like this in total at the tail of the cone.
There are four eyes on the cone, three of which are on the slope of the cone, each eye observes a 120-degree angle, and the fourth eye is in the center of the tail to ensure that no dead angle of vision is left.
In order to ensure the safety of the eyes in high-speed travel, the outside of the eyes will be covered with a layer of silicon crystals with a certain carbon content, that is, tempered glass widely used in human civilization.
The conical shell is silver-white with a silver-gray metallic luster. This is a titanium alloy shell, which is lighter, stronger and less denser than iron of the same volume.
The structure of the shell is divided into three layers. The innermost layer and the outermost layer are titanium alloys. The two middle layers are grids made of nanocarbon fiber. In this way, even if the outermost titanium alloy is damaged, the second layer of nanofibers can also play a good role in cushioning, and the third layer of titanium alloy can also be defended and can be hit. Attacks defended through titanium alloy.
There is a slight difference in the color of the head and shell of the cone, which is steel gray.
This part is not titanium alloy, but 'chromium' with a Mohs hardness of 9. As the most hardest diamond in nature, the Mohs hardness is 10. It is as easy to prick into a rock as soft mud.
Huo Gu did not abandon some of the original designs used on the gourd, but continued to apply them to his new design.
And let a small individual like Hu take a ride into the new individual and act together, which can form a good complementarity and help each other to complete what each other can't do.
"The design is finished, but I haven't figured out the name yet..."
"What should I call it?"
After solving a problem, Huo Gu fell into another tangled dilemma.
"The design template is a straight-shell nautilus, which is similar to a snail in terms of appearance... So in terms of appellation, there should be a word 'snail'."
"The shell is made of titanium alloy, which is the most significant difference from the straight-shell nautilus, so there should also be a word 'titanium'..."
"To sum up, it's called... 'titanium snail'?"
When he read the name, Huo Gu obviously felt an inexplicable strange feeling, as if he had heard the word somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
After thinking for a long time, I couldn't recall why I was so sensitive to the name.
If you don't understand, you just don't want to. Huo Gu chose to give up. He still has a lot of things to do.
"Forget it, maybe it's the name of an acquaintance. Since it's an acquaintance, it won't be good to borrow it."
"Well, that's the reason."
After saying that, Huo Gu's attention turned to the volcanic island, completed the design and production of the titanium snail, and then it was the turn of the transformation of the volcanic island.
If it succeeds, Huogu will have a relatively stable station. If it fails, it will be at most a volcanic eruption in the form of side leakage, and Huogu will not be threatened at all.
Of course, it is still necessary to be prepared to run in the event of an accident.
