    ¡°It is said that they are very excited here, and now Li Ping is also a little excited.  After a period of analysis, although she did not fully understand the structure of the spacecraft, Louise also came to a conclusion.  That is, whether it is the parts used or the structure of the design, this spacecraft has even reached the level of excellence and is not for industrial spaceships at all.  Li Ping estimated that even military spacecraft did not need to reserve so much excess strength of the hull structure.  What surprised Li Ping the most was that after reserving so much structural strength, the weight of the entire spacecraft was actually not much heavier than ordinary and industrial ships of the same level.  Just like a chair made by ordinary humans can withstand the weight of an African elephant, if it is not a very important thing, it is not worth designing such a spacecraft. Not only the design, but also the cost of manufacturing will be ridiculously high.  So while Li Ping was excitedly analyzing and studying the design of the spacecraft, he was also full of doubts in his heart. He didn't think that a mere silicon crystal could receive such attention.  Although silicon crystal is the oil in the universe and the most important strategic material for every civilization, as long as the quantity is not huge, it can still be easily purchased in just a few shiploads.  From the beginning, Li Ping felt that this spaceship was a bit weird, but at that time he ignored his hunch because he had just discovered the spacecraft. Now after discovering these circumstances, this weird feeling has returned to Li Ping's mind.  However, now Li Ping only has a vague feeling, which is not clear. He needs to find out the entire spaceship first before making other plans. However, just now, all signs indicate that this spaceship is definitely not an ordinary thing.  , so that he can learn more from it, which makes Li Ping a little excited.  However, Li Ping didn¡¯t want to go around opening the doors himself. He was the master no matter what. It would be too expensive to do these things himself, and he didn¡¯t have the time to open the hatches one by one.  Fortunately, Li Ping's biotechnology is not limited, and only Li Ping can cultivate another kind of insect just for laziness.  However, considering that using mental power to break the locking system of the hatch requires precise mental power control and strong mental power intensity and sustainability, this new type of ethnic group requires a very high level of mature consciousness, and this awareness even needs to be  The fine control of mental power is stronger than the biological brain of the first generation of surveillance bugs.  Fortunately, after such a long period of development, the Zerg biological brain technology has made great progress. It can reach the level of the original large-sized biological brain with a few tenths of the original volume. Therefore, Li Ping can completely cultivate a  Bugs that are good at using mental power can be stuffed into the spacecraft to help Li Ping open the closed hatches.  But even so, such a huge biological brain cannot be stuffed into the body of a nymph or a hydralisk. In the end, considering the area of ??the spacecraft aisle, Li Ping used an enlarged worm as the body to fit the big head, and then  Adding a little something else.  Moreover, because it does not require extremely high intelligence and flexibility, it is more than enough to control them directly with the consciousness cultivated by Louise, so Li Ping directly hatched six of them at once and engraved all the ordinary consciousness he had cultivated into them.  .  With the addition of six bugs that can quickly break through the hatch, the Zerg search for this spacecraft no longer has to let the worker bees chew on the Hydralisk pry, and the speed of searching the entire ship is suddenly many times faster.  While the interior was being searched, the mothership staying near the spacecraft also used its powerful mental radar to scan the exterior of the spacecraft, not letting go of any detail.  But unfortunately, the Zerg did not find anything valuable or powerful after searching the entire spaceship. This made Li Ping a little disappointed and unwilling.  Since childhood, Li Ping has been a person who doesn't give up easily. Although he is lazy sometimes, he will not give up easily if he decides something. He will never give up unless he vetoes the last possibility, so even though he has so far  So far, he hasn't found any "accident" that he expected, but Li Ping still hasn't given up completely.  Maybe the goddess of luck on the earth also followed Li Ping out secretly. Just when Li Ping was about to give up, a queen who was checking the external scanning data and internal measurement data discovered something abnormal.  That is, after the final aggregation of the internal data measured by the worker bees, nymphs and hydralidras, and the data scanned from the outside of the mothership, there is a difference of 1.25 meters in the total length of the spacecraft.  Although this 1.25 meters is a bit insignificant for a 10,000-meter spacecraft, for a spacecraft whose entire structure and parts are built to high standards, this 1.25 meters is somewhat inappropriate.  Of course, you can also use the excuse that this is a spaceship tens of thousands of years ago, and it may be normal for the technology at that time to cause such errors.? In the past, but Li Ping did not intend to do this, so Li Ping sent all the Hydralisks to conduct another survey.  You must know that the Hydralisk is very sensitive to geometric dimensions such as distance and length. This is largely due to the fact that it needs to accurately grasp geometric factors such as distance and orientation to attack from a long distance.  Finally, after nearly a month of careful survey by a large number of Hydralisks, Li Ping finally found a particularly thick wall near the power cabin that had flown to who knows where.  There was nothing suspicious anywhere else. Needless to say, the thing Li Ping guessed was probably hidden in a corner within the armored wall.  But, what can be hidden in such a small place?  Is it some secret information?  If this is the case, then what I have now is just a bunch of heavenly books and oracle bones.  However, in addition to things like oil, there are also things like nuclear raw materials on earth that are extremely valuable and can even affect the stability of the world in very small amounts.  Whether it is that kind of thing you won¡¯t know until you finally find it.  It feels like playing a reasoning game, finding a hidden secret in a wall of iron.  However, when Li Ping came to this wall, he was speechless.  Although the outer layer was ordinary armor, the inner layer was a layer of silver-white metal. It was this layer of silver-white metal that gave the Zerg worker bees with invincible mouthparts their first taste of defeat.  Turning around and looking around, I found that the damaged power bulkhead also had this silver-white metal interlayer added to it.  Moreover, whether it is an industrial ship or a military ship, the fire extinguishing and explosion suppression systems in the power cabin should be very complete. An unactivated fire extinguishing and explosion suppression equipment at Li Ping's feet also confirmed the destruction of the spacecraft.  The power cabin was not an internal explosion.  It seems that someone knew the secret, and when it was impossible to seize the entire spacecraft, they chose the best-protected power cabin and took it away together with that thing. But in the end, they made a mistake. Only one power cabin was taken away and was taken away by this person.  A spaceship escaped.  Li Ping synthesized a large number of clues and came to the above conclusion.  However, regardless of whether Li Ping's speculation was accurate or not, it was a fact that he had no choice but to do anything about the wall that was glowing with silver light.  However, most of the entire silver metal structure was probably taken away, leaving only a corner. However, the thickness of this corner was the only one with enough space to hold things. At this time, Li Ping also sighed. At that time, he came to rob the spacecraft loaded with  The people who were responsible for the secret supplies were really unlucky. They had already gone to great lengths to dig out the entire power cabin, but they were left with this corner, which was the only place where things could be hidden. Now Li Ping had an advantage.  After admitting that he was powerless against the silver-white metal, Li Ping moved the unknown silver-white metal block directly through the opening of the power cabin to the outside. At the same time, more than a dozen flying boring machines came to take over and laboriously moved it into the ship insect.  .  Li Ping didn't dare to move this obscure thing directly into his own mothership. It was better to put it into the body of the ship worm for study. If anything happened, there would be no loss. Anyway, this ship worm would be destroyed sooner or later.  The mothership absorbed it.  ¡°However, being knocked down like this also reminded Li Ping of the waste piled near the alien spacecraft.  After all, the technology is still backward, and the Zerg cannot fully absorb the soil.  In other words, the Zerg can only absorb the soil, and then separate out some elements that it can use, such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, silicon, iron and aluminum, etc., and other unused elements or very stable substances.  The Zerg cannot take advantage of it.  So it is said that absorbing soil will produce waste, but it is really a big waste.  The improved nuclear conversion technology obtained from the mushroom trees in the forbidden areas of the earth is a good solution.  But so far, the Zerg have only mastered, or Li Ping, only developed the technology to convert helium, a light nuclear substance, into a few conventional elements such as beryllium, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, oxygen and sulfur. Recently, they have developed  Synthetic phosphorus technology.  Compared with those advanced civilizations, it is far inferior. According to those Yu Pirates who tried to occupy the earth but were killed by themselves, some advanced civilizations have been able to convert between various elements without any difficulty, but due to cost considerations  It's just not widely adopted.  What's more, there are still some substances in the universe that even silicon crystal cannot be converted, let alone this energy-consuming element conversion technology. However, this technology is perfect for the Zerg.  The proteins and various substances that make up the carapace, tissues, and organs of the Zerg are almost all composed of ordinary basic elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur, as well as some or small amounts of other elements such as iron, zinc, and copper.  So far, the organic substances with various uses studied by Li Ping are almost all composed of common elements in the periodic table of elements on the earth. Only a few have rare elements added. However, thanks to the rich and diverse space  ?Due to their structure and detailed design, these proteins have acquired a variety of magical abilities.  There is only one thing added that does not have elements on the earth, and that is the core tissue containing that extraterrestrial substance in the jumping organ - element 99.  But so far, Li Ping has not developed a method for the Zerg to use silicon crystals to produce this substance, so so far, Li Ping's Zerg fleet has no choice but to maintain this scale.  Long-term research has made Li Ping more skillful and efficient in extracting energy from silicon crystals.  At the same time, one of my previous guesses has been confirmed to a certain extent, that is, there are indeed dense particles inside the silicon crystal, and these particles are most likely neutrons.  Because this kind of particle feels very much like a neutron to Li Ping.  Maybe it¡¯s not necessarily a special neutron. When a neutron star is formed, protons and electrons can be compressed into neutrons. Then in silicon crystal, if the special neutrons are decomposed into protons and electrons or directly become ordinary neutrons, it is theoretically possible  There's nothing wrong with that either.  Of course, although we don¡¯t know why it is difficult for silicon crystal to have large pure crystals, as long as the silicon crystal is in a crystalline state, impurities will accumulate.  In other words, in a piece of silicon crystal, pure silicon crystal and impurities are separated. Except for the impurity clumps gathered together, the rest is pure silicon crystal, which is a great boon for mining work.  What makes Li Ping helpless is that although the accumulated impurities are some common minerals, Li Ping has almost never found a small piece of crystalline silicon crystal, but there is no fragmented silicon crystal that has become a large crystal.  Found quite a few.  But silicon crystals in the universe are not that easy to find. It is best to find silicon crystal deposits, but if you can't find them, you can only dig through the mud and dig for rocks.  What Li Ping has always been worried about is the Zerg's demand for some minerals.  Although it does not require a large amount of resources like mechanical civilization, such as various metal mines, the Zerg's carapace, bone spears, etc. all require a certain amount of iron, manganese, chromium and other metals and non-ferrous metals, and even some non-metals  mineral.  Although there are a lot of these metal resources in the universe, there is a possibility that they are not. If one day we reach a place where these resources cannot be found, won¡¯t the Zerg be out of luck after they have exhausted their storage?  In the universe, whether it is a rock or a gaseous planet, as long as there is matter, if the technology of element transformation can be mastered, then no matter where the Zerg goes, they will not encounter the embarrassing situation of not having resources.  This element conversion technology is based on the development of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion principles and the derived element nuclear conversion theory. It is a technology that converts one element into another element by consuming energy. Currently, the Zerg have only mastered this technology.  A little bit of this technology is nuclear fusion and alpha particle synthesis technology.  The previous technology is considered entry-level and has a large amount of stable energy.  The latter technology uses the high temperature and energy provided by nuclear fusion to convert alpha particles into specific nuclei of several elements under the catalysis of special proteins and life energy, and then synthesizes specific elements through electron supplementation.  It is the alternative technology to the above technologies that has been researched by the Zerg first, and that is the material conversion technology.  In fact, to put it simply, it is by breaking down various substances into basic elements and then recombining them.  This kind of reaction usually occurs in living organisms all the time. Li Ping only greatly expanded the intensity, speed and reaction target of this reaction through technical means, so there will still be some residues of the reaction and cannot be repeated.  The waste used can only be excreted, which in Li Ping's opinion is a big waste.  Li Ping has always believed that as long as it is a substance, it is a kind of energy. There is no problem of resources. The lack of resources can only mean that the technology is insufficient.  This persistence will allow the Zerg to develop mature and perfect element conversion technology in the future. In addition to countless titles such as destroyer of civilization, creator of civilization, technology collecting maniac, etc., they will also have the title of scavenger of the universe.  ;
