Chapter 84 How the Steel Was Tempered

Chapter 84 - How Steel is Made

Status: larvae

Physical strength: 11/11

Explosive power: 10/55

Fullness: 95%

Active time: 110 hours

Energy points: 12/5000

Chen Fei took the time to take a look at the "personal information" of the system.

I got 10 energy points, but...what are they enough for?

The cheapest "Physical Body Evolution Database" on the first page of the "Skill Shop" requires 99 energy points. Currently, there are still 87 energy points missing. I don't know when I can get it all.

When he arrived at the recycling bin, Chen Fei saw cardboard boxes piled up into a huge angular rectangle.

After repeated screening and cleaning, the wreckage of the fighter jet was finally delivered here, and was dismantled into pieces. Metal was metal, plastic was plastic, and even standard fasteners were packed in cardboard boxes.

This kind of detailed work can only be done by people in the mechanical repair team.

Anyone else would have no way of looking at the modular assembly components and would only be able to stare blankly.

Violent cutting without technical content is another matter.

Being dismantled like this saves a lot of trouble.

At least you don’t have to throw them all into a reaction tank to undergo biodegradation.

"Eat it directly, or smelt it?"

Chen Fei looked at the eager female golden dragon.

If you apply the method of food and drink to metal smelting, Emmm can definitely achieve great results.

Just to give you a random example, flour alone is just a trick!

"Of course..." Yilan instinctively wanted to choose to enter directly, but before she could say anything, she suddenly changed her mind for some reason.

"Of course trying different alloy formulas."

The taste of different metal components will be different. In the past, it was difficult to have such an opportunity to order food just to fill my stomach.

The Slan Dynasty of the Firmament Star has never been accustomed to the golden dragons it has raised. The rations provided are limited to food and clothing, and it is rare to change the taste.

In fact, it is good that the young dragons can eat well. If they want to eat well and achieve mithril freedom, even the dynasty empire that unified the firmament star will still be unable to bear it.

Blue Star has much richer mithril reserves than Firmament Star, and they are distributed almost everywhere. Just grab a handful of soil and it will contain mithril, but the content ratio is too low. Mineralization is quite difficult, the output is limited, and the smelting and processing is very difficult. Trouble, the cost is slightly lower than that of Cangqingxing, but not much lower. Bluestar doesn’t think it’s enough for its own use. It manages to squeeze out a part of the quota and trades it to Cangqingxing every year. How can it be willing to use it to feed the dragon.

Just take a few sips of the trading volume and it will be gone!

"learn!"

Chen Fei picked up a box of metal parts and poured it directly into the feeding chute of the smelting furnace.

He didn't notice that his strength had increased inexplicably. The weight of this box was at least forty or fifty kilograms, but he could easily hold it in his hand without any effort at all.

"There is also this box, I smell the smell of mithril, the content is not low."

The female golden dragon approached the pile of boxes, sniffing one by one, and dexterously grabbed the box she wanted with her tail.

I opened the cardboard lid and smelled it carefully. It was that smell, and my mouth was almost watering on the spot.

"Mithril? The name here on Blue Star is 'titanium', and titanium alloys are also used in aircraft."

Iridium could smell the mithril inside the box, and Chen Fei wasn't surprised at all.

Titanium is a magic metal on the Firmament Star, while on the Blue Star it is a high-strength, lightweight special material with special uses. Both are strategic resources with extremely high military value.

Even if the A-39B "Big Mouth Monster" light turboprop attack aircraft is a cheap and large-volume aircraft, it will still use titanium alloy materials in some structural parts.

The so-called "cheap" is only relative.

"Are these all airplane parts?"

Yilan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the boxes up and down, and said doubtfully: "Scrap products?"

It not only smelled of titanium alloy, but also had a smoky smell.

Mottled marks of varying degrees of severity can be seen on the surface of many parts, and there are even deformations and defects.

Even a layman can still tell that these parts are scrap and cannot be installed on the aircraft at all.

"Yes, all of them!"

Chen Fei took several cardboard boxes picked out by the female giant gold dragon Yilan to the feeding chute one by one and poured them into them.

Empty boxes can be used again, so put them aside for now.

Yilan asked hesitantly: "Can these be eaten?"

Compared with yesterday's metal ingots, today's metal parts are a bit higher-grade, and they actually contain mithril.

"Of course, if you want!"

Chen Fei nodded.

There is no other way to deal with the waste sent to the recycling station other than decomposition and smelting. Even transporting it requires a shipping fee. Throwing it around will pollute the environment. It is best to recycle it on site. The solution is equivalent to creating new value out of nothing.

"I want it, I want it all!"

The female gold-type dragon was surprised and delighted. The feast containing mithril was definitely not to be missed.

From the moment I emerged from the shell to now, in the past thirty years, I have tasted mithril almost countless times, and the portions are very limited, barely enough to stuff between my teeth and taste the taste.

Even so, the little mithril that was finally obtained was obtained by fighting hard with other friends of the same race.

A group of young dragons were screaming and fighting each other, and the scene was naturally extremely tragic. I am afraid they even wanted to kill their competitors.

"Iran, please help to distinguish the metal materials in the box. Pick out the ones with more first and try to make one or two thick ingots."

Chen Fei continued to open the cardboard boxes, put the boxes with less metal materials aside first, and then throw them all into the reaction tank. After a period of biodegradation, the inorganic matter and metal will be finally separated.

"This is too easy!"

Iran would not refuse Chen Fei's proposal at all, but was very happy.

It pounced in front of the pile of boxes. With the innate sensing ability of the gold dragon for metal materials, it could distinguish the amount of metal materials in the boxes without even opening them. It moved very quickly. In a short while, it separated two piles of boxes, and the ones with more metal materials accounted for the majority.

The red light in the automatic feeding smelting furnace was shining, and the temperature suddenly increased.

Metals of various shapes quickly turned red, softened like wax oil, and finally condensed into a ball.

A liquid sphere that shines like a little sun is suspended in the center of the smelting furnace under the restraint of the magnetic field. The temperature shows that it has reached 2600 degrees Celsius, with fluctuations of less than 10 degrees Celsius.

The magnetic field deflects, and the molten liquid metal ball falls into the crucible, and then slowly pours into the mold. After cooling, it becomes the most basic rough ingot.

If you want to use these metals again, you can use these rough ingots as raw materials for processing. In many places where there are not too high requirements, these metal products processed from rough ingots are more than enough and can do the job.

Under the cover of cooling water mist, the surface of the mold hissed and water vapor kept spreading.

A minute later, the still hot metal rough ingot was released.

The female gold dragon Iridium couldn't wait to bite it.

"The mithril content can reach at least 60%, and there is black gold."

Mithril tastes like cheese, fragrant and sweet, and black gold tastes like hazelnuts, crispy and fragrant.

The high temperature of 2600 degrees Celsius in the smelting furnace just now did not reach the melting point of tungsten (3410 degrees Celsius), so many tungsten fragments that were not melted were distributed inside the ingot, and the whole taste was like cheese sticks with nuts.

Every bite was full of happiness, and Iridium was moved to cry.

It was not always possible for the gold dragon to disassemble those fighters and remelt them to feast on them.

Bang!

Half of the metal ingot flew over and hit Chen Fei heavily.

The female gold dragon Iridium said very seriously: "You half, I half!"

"Ah?"

Chen Fei was a little dazed looking at the ingot under his feet, which still had hideous tooth marks on it.

It was a rare story that the gold dragon was willing to share his food.

The instinct of living things is to protect food. Even domestic cats and dogs, if anyone dares to touch the bowl of food they are enjoying, they will be bitten on the spot. If they are more aggressive, they will turn hostile to you.

Even ordinary animals are like this, let alone the golden dragons with a notoriously violent temper. If anyone dares to touch their food, it is normal to fight to the death.

Eager to share this delicious and touching food, Iridium urged: "Eat it while it's hot, it's fragrant and tender!"

It seemed to have forgotten that the person in front of it was a human, not a golden dragon.
