[Chapter 196: Spherical Object]

"Is this...excavated from the tunnel road?"

When Ren Hong saw its true face, he was also surprised because its appearance was too peculiar. It was an irregular spherical body, with the curved surfaces at the upper and lower ends higher than in the middle, making it more sharp. Wei Yufeng looked like a sphere, but when Ren Hong looked, he felt that it was like an inverted parallelogram. If it was cut from the middle, the inner section could really draw four patterns that were exactly the same and parallel to each other.

"Yes, the auger that touches 3 can't affect it." A staff member answered him.

"Huh?" Ren Hong's eyes suddenly lit up. He found a very strange picture and text on the surface of the object. After looking carefully, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, "Is this... a fossil of the trilobite?"

Ren Hong's seemingly unintentional words surprised everyone present. This is an extinct species on Earth. Trilobites are the most representative creatures of the Paleozoic hundreds of millions of years ago, and the people present are all staff members of Matrix Technology and have extremely high education. Naturally, no one would not know what trilobites are.

"Clean this place and be careful." Ren Hong said to the upper half of the object.

Under the cleaning of the staff, the strange patterns in their location were clearer and more complete, and Ren Hong was basically sure that the pattern attached to the surface was the trilobite fossil.

This shows that the object is at least 250 million years old, and the trilobite fossil formed on the surface is one of the evidences. Another evidence is the object itself, also known as the Carboniferous Age in the Permian era. It is an important era of coal formation. The color of the surface of the object is likely to be composed of carbolithic substances.

Thinking of this, Ren Hong suddenly asked: "By the way, what is the composition of the soil excavated from the tunnel soil layer? What is the rock layer structure?"

"It is basically the same as the data obtained before excavation. Except for this thing a little different..., the soil excavated is mainly 'conglomerate' and 'conglomerate layers' of the sedimentary products of the sea retreat incident."

"I understand, transport this thing back to the headquarters!"

There is no equipment in the excavation site to analyze this "stone ball". After returning to the headquarters, Ren Hong began to analyze this dark object in a series. At least 2.5 years of history, it was obviously formed naturally, but its appearance has rich symmetry and solid layer made Ren Hong very curious about its internal structure.

After being transported back to the headquarters laboratory, Ren Hong immediately analyzed its structure.

"The analysis results are out. Brother! The object structure is composed of three layers of structure. The surface carbolithic structure is composed of magmatic rock. The inner layer is the smallest, more like a core. The longest diameter is less than 10 cm and the widest width is only 7 cm. The material components cannot be identified."

Sakura's data report made Ren Hong think, "I understand, this means it should come from other places. At least during the journey of 'it', it passed by the volcanic zone, which should be near the undersea volcano. The volcanic activity in prehistoric times was more frequent than it is now. It drifted on the seabed and finally deposited in a certain corner. With the movement of the earth's plates, the sedimentary rocks were exposed on the surface, and happened to be discovered by me hundreds of millions of years later on Hainan Island."

"Then the question is. Why is it a spherical structure?"

"Wait!" Ren Hong was stunned and said, "Can't recognize the substance? Is it because of insufficient penetration or something else?"

"Our laser scanners cannot penetrate the core," Sakura said.

"Then just cut it open and analyze it in depth. Let's see what the kernel is. I'm becoming more and more curious now." Ren Hong said. His curiosity is getting stronger and stronger. Unrecognized substances? For scientific research, unknowns often represent new discoveries.

The spherical object is sent into an enclosed transparent glass space under the control of the intelligent mechanical hanging arm. The small enclosed space is moved to a mechanical round table. On the side of the round table, the five rings are tightly pressed together and rotate in opposite directions, and the speed is getting faster and faster, and finally emits a dazzling light source.

“Increase to 300 times the output power.”

The machine is making the continuous sound of Weng Ming without any interruption. In the closed space, the two robotic arms are located at both ends of the edge and aligned with each other. The next moment, the ports of the two robotic arms emit a straight laser and are connected to each other. The two robotic arms have almost zero errors to translate to the spherical object downward.

Ren Hong's eyes were staring at the concentrating screen in front of him, "Start!" He said, the two hanging robotic arms slowly went down, and the horizontal cutting rays slowly approached the spherical object. The surface easily broke through, and the magmatic rock in the middle layer also broke through without any pressure. The cutting rays continued to penetrate deeper until they approached the edge of the core of the spherical object, but the cutting rays stopped moving at the edge of the core.

"What's the situation?" Ren Hong said, staring at the screen.

"Rays cannot divide the core!" Sakura said.

"What? Can't you cut the core?" Ren Hong said in surprise, adding: "Try increasing the output power to 500 times!"

"It's still not possible!"

“800 times the output power!”

"It's still impossible to go deeper!"

"Open to maximum peak!"

"I still can't go deeper even if it's 0.1 mm. Hey? Brother, it is crazy about absorbing the energy generated by the rays!"

"What?" Ren Hong opened his eyes wide and looked at the screen. His hands quickly operated for a while. The energy reserve data of the ray cutting equipment was instantly listed in front of him. At this moment, he looked at the data displayed on the screen incredibly. The reserve energy was being consumed in a crazy manner. In less than 1 minute of the peak output of the cutting equipment, it consumed 67% of the total reserve energy. This is too scary. The peak output energy consumption of the equipment is absolutely impossible to continuously consume so much high-purity energy within 1 minute.

Ren Hong is very clear about 69% of the total reserve energy of 67% of the reserve energy. If this energy is used on the "eagle", it will be enough for it to operate for a week. Obviously, the lost energy is obviously absorbed by the core.

The core is absorbing the energy of cutting rays, and the equipment must maintain peak output, and the energy reserve is consuming wildly.

"Switch off the device quickly, Sakura!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his cutting vision disappeared. He looked at the spherical object blankly, and after a while, an inexplicable look of excitement surged into his heart.

"I think my luck is coming, Sakura! This kernel may be what I want most. Quickly, cut off all the surface and keep the kernel completely."

The lost energy had long been thrown out of the sky by him. He knew very well that the equipment had not failed. So many high-purity energy industries could not disappear out of thin air. They were absorbed by the core, but how large is it? What kind of substance is it that can absorb such a massive amount of energy as half a fist?

At this moment, he was impatient and wanted to take out the kernel immediately and see what it really is.
