Chapter 271: Chapter: 271
"Huff...! Finally, I'm back. This time, no matter who comes looking for me, unless it's truly urgent, don't put the call through. Just reject it directly, understand, Baymax?"
Passing through the teleportation gate and stepping into the laboratory, Mark immediately issued an order to Baymax, determined to focus on the research and temporarily ignore other miscellaneous matters.
"Understood, Master. Don't worry, I will carefully filter incoming matters, and in non-urgent situations, I will refrain from reporting to you."
Receiving Baymax's response, Mark nodded satisfactorily and returned to the experimental table, intending to continue the unfinished experiment.
As a member of the Avengers and due to the special relationship with the team captain, as well as the importance of the operation against Hydra, Mark didn't mind spending some time to help them solve their troubles.
However, being interrupted by one thing after another during crucial moments of his experiment was starting to annoy Mark. Moreover, the incident with Master Daniel mistakenly trespassing the New York Sanctum was just absurd.
Did it really warrant activating the emergency call for assistance, leading him to rush to the scene only to witness such a farce?
"After all, it's because the intelligence level of the Terminators and Baymax is too low. They have sufficient IQ to handle problems, but their EQ in dealing with matters is close to zero."
"After completing the Hoi-Poi Capsule project this time, I should prioritize upgrading Baymax's core.
Not only to seize the opportunity brought about by the birth of Ultron but also because the higher Baymax's intelligence level, the more troubles it can help me alleviate, allowing me to focus on important matters..."
"By the way, Baymax, you create a new material project, with the task scheduled after your core intelligence upgrade is completed."
While preparing for the Hoi-Poi Capsule testing experiment, Mark seemed to suddenly remember something and spoke to Baymax.
"The research project has been established in a separate database. Please set detailed task specifications, Master."
"During my trip to Hawaii to deal with Hydra's troubles, I promised Hawkeye that I would upgrade his equipment. Since I've made that commitment, I can't go back on my word.
Besides various high-tech arrows, the most crucial equipment for Hawkeye is undoubtedly his compound bow. The material project I want you to create is for the new bowstring material."
"Graphene fibers and carbon carbide materials do have very high strength, but when used in bowstrings, they are too rigid and lack elasticity, which hinders Hawkeye's precise and rapid shooting and limits the advantage of his eyesight in range."
"So, this time, I plan to use an entirely new material for the bowstring—one that possesses both sufficient strength and excellent flexibility. Additionally, it must be lightweight. The material I'm currently considering is... spider silk!"
"Spider silk is an organic material composed of protein molecular chains, irregular chains giving it elasticity, and regular chains providing strength."
It is precisely due to this unique composition that spider silk possesses both lightweight and softness while also having extremely high strength and toughness.
In terms of strength, spider silk fibers are comparable to the strongest carbon fibers and high-strength synthetic fibers like Kevlar, apart from carbon carbide and graphene.
However, spider silk's toughness is noticeably superior to the aforementioned fibers.
In fact, scientists have been exploring and researching spider silk for quite some time now. Thanks to advancements in modern biotechnology, scientists can artificially synthesize spider silk proteins in the laboratory using genetic engineering techniques, and then use special weaving techniques to create artificial spider silk.
Artificial genetically engineered spider silk produced this way is about 4 to 5 times stronger than steel and possesses the softness and sheen of silkworm silk, making it versatile in various applications.
Moreover, since spider silk is composed of proteins, in theory, its length can be infinitely extended as long as an adequate supply of the corresponding protein solution is available.
However, the production of artificial spider silk through this biotechnological method is not only difficult and limited in quantity but also falls short in strength compared to naturally produced spider silk, making it unsuitable for Mark's needs.
Furthermore, different species of spiders produce silk with various characteristics, with some excelling in strength while others have advantages in toughness.
Even within the silk produced by the same spider, it consists of different silk glands, each with distinct properties. Thus, to obtain satisfactory artificial silk for Hawkeye's new bowstring, Mark needs to explore alternative solutions.
"Baymax, your next task is to help me establish a biological database, collecting information on all spider species worldwide, analyzing and comparing the material properties of their silks, and identifying the performance changes resulting from compositional differences.
Make sure to complete all data collection and analysis work before I perform your final core intelligence upgrade."
With the prior commitment made to Hawkeye settled, the upcoming tasks would rely on Baymax's powerful intelligence-gathering and data analysis capabilities.
Mark could now focus all his attention on the testing experiment of the Hoi-Poi Capsule. He had a premonition that this new batch of products, produced after a change of approach, would undoubtedly yield satisfactory results in the upcoming tests.
Attaching the compression device modified from the Arc Reactor to the test items inside the laboratory, Mark decisively initiated the experiment.
Instantly, all the items in the laboratory, big and small, seemed to perform a magic trick, transforming into small and delicate metal capsules.
These test items were meticulously selected by Mark, varying in size and material. He included some separate items, such as building blocks and cash, with loose connections between individual parts, to test the compression device's range of effectiveness.
Additionally, there were assembled items like quivers and packages to place the compression device both inside the assembly and externally, in order to confirm its operational mechanism.
As expected, the final experimental results were very successful, exactly as Mark had anticipated. All the data indicated that this testing experiment had achieved his design objectives for the Hoi-Poi Capsule.
Regardless of the size and material of the items, using the compression device to turn them into Hoi-Poi Capsules allowed them to have a unified appearance.
Furthermore, after being restored to their original state, the items remained completely undamaged, satisfying the fundamental functional requirements of the Hoi-Poi Capsule.
As for its range of effect and operational mechanism, the compression device only affects the object it is attached to. For example, if the device is attached to one block of building blocks (or any other item), when activated, only that individual block will be compressed into a Hoi-Poi Capsule.
If the goal is to compress an entire set of building blocks together, they would need to be placed inside a container to form a collection. This way, when the compression device is activated, it will treat the container and its contents as a unified whole, compressing them together.
Of course, if there were no safety measures restricting the compression device, these operational mechanisms would also apply to living beings or, more specifically, humans.
It could compress a living person using space-folding algorithms into a tiny metal capsule. However, for humans, there would be no chance of being restored to their original state.
"I guess I've obtained something of a legendary item. Though this device could be lethal for living beings, if I were to create a disposable version for the deceased, not only could it save a substantial amount of funeral expenses, but even graveyards could be spared. It seems I've found another path to wealth!"
