#782 - Chapter 782 Hatching Foam Bombs

There's also good news: the manufacturing process for these foam bombs is quite unique, as it doesn't require setting up a production facility.

You see, for every new product developed, at least one corresponding production facility needs to be established. And building a production facility takes about a month.

Not needing a production facility greatly shortens the manufacturing cycle.

So, how are they manufactured without a production facility?

Xiaolin's proposed solution is bio-fabrication.

In a temperature-controlled environment, micro-robots are used to construct a shell, and pre-calculated amounts of water and various compounds are placed inside.

Next comes the crucial step: using gene programming technology to synthesize several types of microorganisms with specific functions.

One of these microorganisms is a producer, capable of absorbing various inorganic minerals from the water and converting them into organic matter.

The remaining types are consumers. They feed on the organic matter produced by the producers, performing secondary synthesis, tertiary synthesis…

Several types of microorganisms appear in sequence within the enclosed environment, continuously refining the internal substances, ultimately forming a viscous, compressed liquid, much like egg yolk.

By pre-setting the required types of minerals and corresponding strains of microorganisms, any desired biochemical product can be synthesized using their reproductive processes.

Based on this concept, an even smaller shell can be synthesized to produce an organic liquid high explosive.

Of course, the production process is completely sealed.

Therefore, the small shell must be placed inside the large shell from the beginning.

The microorganisms will reproduce independently in this sealed environment, without human intervention.

After a period of incubation, a bomb similar to an egg is formed.

The "yolk" part is the organic liquid explosive, and the outer "egg white" is a concentrated liquid similar to foam glue.

As soon as the yolk explodes, the outer liquid will spray in all directions. The sprayed concentrated liquid expands continuously during the splashing process, solidifying a certain range of space.

According to this idea, the incubation time for a foam egg is 15 days.

Regardless of size, the incubation time is almost the same.

Of course, eggs can be incubated simultaneously. The incubation time for one egg is the same as for ten thousand eggs.

Adding the time for synthesizing microorganisms and manufacturing the eggshells, theoretically, a large batch of foam bombs can be produced within 20 days.

As for a warm place, that's easy to find.

Any idle base in China would be warm enough.

If it can be completed within 20 days, then blocking the fighter swarm is definitely not a problem.

In 20 days, the fighter swarm can only fly 2/3 of the distance between Earth and the Moon.

Meanwhile, Baili Ji had everything prepared and sent people to test it.

The sent-out future warrior piloted a space mech into space, located the parking location of the planetary attack ship, and activated the small world entrance on the side of the hull.

There was some initial concern that opening the small world entrance in space would interfere with or even damage the internal environment.

But in reality, it didn't, not at all.

The air in the small world did not dissipate into space, and people could enter and exit without any obstacles.

The principle behind this is currently unknown, but it is indeed very magical.

After the small world entrance was opened, Baili Ji remotely issued control instructions to the attack ship, ordering it to descend into the atmosphere.

All the council members were nervously watching this scene.

The worst-case scenario everyone anticipated was that the enemy fighter swarm would surround the attack ship and attack it.

However, the attack ship was not afraid of being attacked.

Those foam glues had no lethality; as long as it floated there motionless, they couldn't damage it no matter how they attacked.

Moreover, the number of enemy fighters currently deployed was still very limited, making it not easy to completely surround the attack ship.

Due to deliberately controlling its flight speed, the attack ship's descent speed was not fast. Half an hour later, the two sides met in the high sky.

In this situation, of course, it was necessary to strike first.

The attack ship turned the side with the small world entrance towards the direction the fighter swarm was coming from, and then accelerated and rushed up.

This process was equivalent to swinging a fly swatter.

Whether those flies could be swatted to death depended on this one move.

The attack ship used a warp drive, so the acceleration was very fast.

However, due to the large area, the air resistance was also very high.

Fortunately, the material of the hull was very tough, and with the energy absorption properties of pseudo-vibranium, it did not heat up or malfunction under the huge air friction.

The attack ship automatically set its trajectory and rushed forward quickly, encountering the fighter swarm head-on.

The encounter process was only a moment, followed by "fishing" time.

The net formed by the small world entrance continuously swallowed those fighters, and not a single one was missed.
