Chapter 327 Sometimes it works but sometimes it doesn’t work

Somewhere in Longguo, in an abandoned urban area, there is an abandoned skyscraper with 43 floors.

"Are you sure I was floating when I was unconscious?"

"Yes! And after you woke up, you took me to the location of the liquid column. Did you forget?"

“But I can’t fly at all now.”

"what?"

In this completely abandoned city, Han Zu and Gloria were in an abandoned skyscraper in the center of the city. On the 43rd floor, there were many new and advanced precision equipment that should not be in this abandoned city. Using these equipment, Han Zu was conducting a systematic and detailed investigation of his and Gloria's bodies. However, the results were not so clear.

"Look at this data. It says that your body has experienced the same energy reaction as a reactor. The originally outrageous energy will produce even more powerful new energy after undergoing an unknown energy compression process and interaction. The magnetic field and radiation force field that appear on your body now are the byproducts of this energy reaction process. And look at the values ​​above. The magnetic field generated is completely enough for you to fly."

"But I really can't fly... Oh! How come I can fly now?"

Han Zu left the measuring equipment, stretched out his hands and turned around twice in the open space next to him, trying to prove that he really couldn't fly now, but at this moment, his body floated up again.

"Let's test it first."

Using the scanning equipment, Gloria conducted another test on Han Zu who was floating, but during the test, Han Zu landed on the ground again and was unable to fly again.

"Did you see any unusual data?"

"I think I know why your flying is so inconsistent. Look at this."

Several items in the data from this test showed significant changes. Although Gloria was not a professional scientist, as a commander of a combat unit, she often paid attention to the development progress of weapons and armor, as well as the medical conditions of her team members. In addition, she had been a mechanical cyborg for a long time, so she had a good understanding of what the data detected by these devices meant.

Gloria handed the terminal to Han Zu. Han Zu, who often used it for research, had long since changed from a technology idiot to a semi-expert, so it was not difficult for Han Zu to understand what was on it. While looking at the data that Gloria pointed out to him, the two of them talked about the possible reasons for Han Zu's flight instability.

"Although there are a lot of data above, there are not so many items we need to pay attention to. According to the test just now, you are flying or floating at the moment. At this time, there are a few items whose readings change the most. They are the magnetic field, the radiation field, the energy required for the energy reaction, and the value of the new energy output after the energy reacts."

"Wait a moment, I need to concentrate, otherwise I'll get sleepy listening to this."

"Hoo-boom."

"Hiss... Huh... Okay, keep talking."

"Then let me continue. When you are not in the air, the values ​​of these four items basically do not change much, but once you leave the ground, the numbers of these items will soar. Based on the test just now, we can now basically determine what role these four items play respectively."

Based on Gloria's analysis of the degree of change in the four data when Han Zu took off, Gloria expressed her own opinion.

First of all, it was the magnetic field. In fact, although at the beginning, when Gloria was at the bottom of the lake, she found that Han Zu had been attracted to the ground by an abnormal magnetic field, which led her to believe that Han Zu's flight might be due to the magnetic field, but after precise data detection, Gloria found that this was not the case. The magnetic field was not the reason why Han Zu could fly. On the contrary, when Han Zu was flying, the value of this magnetic field would increase to a level that could be detected.

"This magnetic field will only appear when you are in the air, or it can be detected. This magnetic field is centered on you and covers a range of five meters in diameter. The function of this magnetic field is still unclear, but based on my previous experience, this magnetic field cannot play any protective or offensive role. What it can be used for can only be tested by you yourself. On the contrary, at least these devices cannot detect it."

"Then what is this radiation field used for? According to your own description and the detection of the equipment, you can emit a special radiation energy pulse that can be used to scan the surrounding environment. It also has an EMP-like effect and can paralyze electronic equipment. But according to the data obtained from the scan, my radiation field has no such effect at all. You should know more about this data than I do. Do you have any clues, Gloria?"

"I do have an idea, but how should I put it? It's a little strange?"

"What a strange method?"

"The radiation produced in your body is not like the radiation we normally know, which will spread around. Its farthest distance is locked on your body surface, which means that only you will have this special radiation. When this radiation appears, all functions of your body will be greatly amplified, but the duration is very short, less than half a second. Although it does not last long, this radiation will continue to appear like a flash when you are in the air until you are no longer in a flying or floating state. So I think this special radiation should be automatic to avoid damage to your body when you make large movements in the air. But I am not sure, and there is no other evidence to prove that these strange radiations have other uses."

"But at the moment, let alone making large movements, I can't even fly all the time. And even if I could, my flying speed wouldn't be as fast as my running speed."

"As for why your flying speed is so slow, I think I understand. It should be related to the other two data. The first is the principle of your ability to fly."

The reason why Han Zu can fly is that after a special energy reaction, the new energy that appears will create a powerful force field that is enough to offset gravity, and this force field is theoretically fully controllable by Han Zu, so in terms of data, Han Zu can fly from this moment on.

"But actually?"

"But in reality, in order for your body to generate this new energy through reactions, the amount of basic energy you need is an astronomical number. If you only rely on your own energy and only fly without doing anything else that consumes energy, your body will consume all of its energy when it is most energetic. The new energy that can be generated to allow you to fly is only enough for you to fly for 20 minutes. After that, you will enter a state of complete energy depletion."

"But when we were in the underground world, I was flying unconsciously, and after I woke up, I used my most energy-consuming ability, and then flew back into the liquid column. The total time was more than half an hour."

"This has to do with your outrageous energy conversion ability. First of all, the area with abnormal radiation has excessive energy, and coupled with those strange slimes, you are different from me. Because of this ability, you can compress the excess energy that exceeds your maximum load multiple times, and then store it in your body. And because there is a lot of dissipated energy in the underground world, it is enough to support your thinking and the most basic actions. Because the energy in your body has been converted into new energy to support flight, your ability to convert energy should always maintain the maximum absorption power in order to ensure that your most basic actions can be carried out. That's why we were able to maintain the flying state before we arrived at the liquid column, and you didn't enter the energy exhaustion state and stayed awake. According to the tests we conducted on your body after we got here, the energy value in your body is very low, I mean compared to other times. You have to know that we arrived here yesterday, and you even slept for a few hours."

"Is this thing so energy-consuming?"

"At least that's what the data shows. And I don't know if you feel it or not, but the remaining energy in your body is almost running out."

"Hu~~"

Han Zu tried to light a flame on his hand. He succeeded, but the flame was not as big as that of a lighter.

"look."

"Well, it seems that we are still a little far from truly soaring into the sky."

"I think the gap is still huge. It can only fly for 20 minutes, which is not as good as a jet pack, and the speed is not fast. I think the reason why the flying speed cannot be increased is not because it cannot be done, but because the energy consumption cannot keep up. If you want to really fly, at least the energy in your body must be dozens of times more than it is now. Or find a way to directly generate this new energy that can support your flight."

"It seems that I must go to the remaining three coordinates. Maybe I can find a solution."

"But it's possible that there's nothing there, and you might be lucky and find it in one go."

"I don't think so. After all, although I can't say that I'm unlucky, I've never been a lucky person. Pack up, we should set off to our next destination."

"You should rest for two days. The dissipated energy here is completely different from that in the underground world. It is extremely scarce. With your energy level, it will probably take at least a week to fully recover."

"It doesn't work."

As he spoke, Han Zu walked to a mechanical device covered by a dust cover, opened the dust cover, and started the device. The function of this device is very simple, it is a small reactor that produces electricity, but because this thing has also been modified by Han Zu, the energy it can produce is much more than it should have been able to produce.

"Luckily there is this thing here."

When the reactor was running at full power, Han Zu opened the protective cover of the reactor, reached his hand directly in and pressed on the reactor. A large amount of energy was sucked into Han Zu's body. After about 10 minutes, the energy in Han Zu's body recovered to its peak.

"We can leave now, or we can take a couple of days off."

"Wait a minute, how many of these machines do you have?"

"Let me think... There is an underground parking lot on the fourth floor of the building, which I used as a warehouse. There seem to be two more helicopters in it. There is one in the corner of the parking apron on the top floor, but it has not been assembled yet. That is... There are four helicopters in total. What's wrong?"

"I think you can rest for a few days, use the three reactors to replenish your energy, and then test your ability to fly and other related things."

"Didn't I say there were four? Why three?"

"At least one should be left to replenish energy. After all, neither you nor I are sure whether you will damage the other three."

"Right."

In the next few days, Han Zu and Gloria stayed in the skyscraper, using the three reactors to continuously replenish energy, testing Han Zu's ability to fly and other abilities obtained from the first coordinate. However, after successfully damaging two reactors, the test stagnated, and there was no substantial progress in the energy required for flight. However, Han Zu became more and more comfortable with the control of flight. Han Zu could even fly at a very fast speed for five seconds, but after that, due to the energy exhaustion caused by the huge energy consumption, Han Zu smashed a deep pit in the abandoned city. It took Gloria some time to dig him out of the pit and carry him back to the skyscraper.

There has been no progress on the issue of flight, but we have a pretty good understanding of other things, such as what magnetic fields and radiation fields can be used for.

When Han Zu was flying, Gloria once released a radiation pulse. As a result, Han Zu suddenly discovered that he could capture the pulse energy released by Gloria in this state and replenish himself with energy, but the replenishment was not much. After many confirmations, it was found that the magnetic field surrounding Han Zu could capture and absorb almost all types of energy, and the energy captured by the magnetic field would be absorbed and converted by Han Zu at a faster speed.

As for the radiation force field that only affects Han Zu's body, if Han Zu does not choose to fly after creating new energy, but directly supplies this new energy to the radiation force field, then the range of this radiation force field will be expanded many times, and he can create a radiation anomaly area with a radius of five meters. In this area, a huge amount of radiation will instantly appear, like a microwave oven, igniting all the creatures in this area from the inside, and it can also have an effect on some other materials that are not resistant to radiation and high temperatures. Most importantly, this force field can penetrate walls. In addition, during the duration of the radiation force field, Han Zu's various physical qualities will also be greatly improved, and this ability consumes much less new energy than flying, only one-thirtieth of it.

After the test was completed, the two sat on the rooftop of the skyscraper, drinking cold beer and relaxing. A day later, the two were ready to set off again to the next coordinate location.
