After this thought emerged in his mind, he could no longer hold it back.
Li Yao rushed back to the Grand Desolate War Institution as fast as lightning and plunged into the Refining Department's Laboratory No. 2.
Along with the advancement of the cleanup of the ruins, coupled with the sponsorship of the Empyrean Terminus Sect, the Refining Department could be said to have undergone a small upgrade. Two small-scale laboratories had been built for Yuan Manqiu and Li Yao, respectively.
Although Li Yao's laboratory wasn't big, the crystal processor he used was the wreckage of a super crystal processor that he had picked up from the ruins. After being reassembled, its computing power was extremely strong.
In addition, Li Yao had also shamelessly borrowed a Super Perception Cabin from the Combat Department at a very cheap price through Ding Ling Dong's relationship.
This thing was of little value to others, but in his hands, it could play an enormous role.
Li Yao directly set up the Super Perception Cabin in the laboratory. When he encountered a problem that required careful consideration, he would use the Super Perception Cabin to escape into the Heavenly Refining Tower for research.
In this way, apart from cultivating at the bottom of the Billowing Star Sea and hunting demon beasts in the Wasteland, Li Yao ate and lived in the laboratory for the rest of his time, greatly increasing his efficiency.
The Laboratory No. 2 was pitch-black. Dozens of glittering holograms were floating in the air. Like a waterfall, information quickly slid down from the top of the holograms. From time to time, it would be mixed with abstruse and complex blueprints.
These were the relatively popular methods used by the Xing Yao Federation to detect demon beasts. -
Li Yao sat cross-legged on the ground. From time to time, he would stick a Frost Glyph on his forehead to cool down his scalding brain that was operating at high speed.
In the darkness, his eyes were sparkling like a beast that was hibernating in the depths of a jungle, ready to pounce at any time to hunt.
At present, there were a total of three common demon beast detection methods used by the Federation.
The most popular method, which was what Li Yao had been using all along, was to input the information of all demon beasts into the crystal processor. Through a special telepathic thought, he could use his voice to retrieve the information.
Just like when Li Yao encountered the Black Armored Saber Mantis in Verdant Tarn City, he only had to shout:
"Black Armored Saber Mantis!"
This strand of Divine Sense would automatically activate and retrieve all the information about the Black Armored Saber Mantis from the database. It would then converge into a translucent hologram and project it in front of Li Yao.
It sounded good. However, most of the time, the users did not know the scientific name of the demonic beast.
At this time, he could use the "fuzzy search" function of his telepathic thoughts.
For example, although he didn't know the scientific name of the Demon Beast in front of him, it seemed to belong to the Saber Mantis Clan. Then, as long as he shouted the two words "Saber Mantis", thousands of pictures of Saber Mantis Clan would jump out for the user to consult.
If one were to describe it in more detail, "black mantis" or "black mantis with two blade-shaped forelimbs" could be described to this extent. The options that popped up were fewer and more precise.
The problem was that the species of demon beasts were too many and too varied. Even if it was a "black Saber Mantis with a sturdy carapace and two blade-shaped forelimbs", there were far more than just the Black Armored Saber Mantis. There was also the Black Armored Scythe Mantis. Black Armored Scythe, Seven Star Black Scythe. Nine Star Black Sickles … there were dozens of them.
These demon beasts had very similar appearances, but the difference in strength was enormous.
The Black Armored Saber Mantis was only a low-level Demon Soldier, while the Nine Star Black Sickle Mantis was a savage high-level Demon Soldier. It could tear a Gold Armored Saber Mantis to pieces and use it as food!
"This kind of search method is too slow!"
"Wait for me to accurately locate the Black Armored Saber Mantis among the dozens of species. Ah, it turns out that I am facing a Nine Star Black Sickle Mantis. It would have already thrown itself at me and risked its life! "
The second method was to detect nearby demon beasts through sensing a special vibration frequency.
When Li Yao was still a scavenger in the Artifact Graveyard, he had a spirit watch refined by the Zephyr Guild. It possessed this function.
At that time, he had used this ability to detect priceless trash spaceships. Every time, he was one step ahead of others and seized the initiative.
However, this method could at most tell the user that there was a powerful demon beast nearby. Perhaps it could also determine the distance between the two sides. However, it was very difficult to accurately determine the species.
It was very good for hiding and escaping.
It was not very suitable for attacking.
The third method was the large-scale, long-range detection magical equipment used by the military.
This type of magical equipment, according to different operating principles, was divided into two types: "Clairvoyance" and "Clairvoyance".
No matter which type it was, it could accurately detect the scale and approximate strength of demon beasts hundreds of kilometers away, or even thousands of kilometers away.
However, this type of magical equipment was refined specifically for beast tide outbreaks. Although it could determine the scale and the approximate number of the beast tide, it was impossible to determine the species of every demon beast. Furthermore, the size of the demon beasts was too huge. Even the smallest of them had to be dragged by crystal tanks.
"Among the commonly seen magical equipment on the market, there is nothing that I need."
"This is not surprising. After all, hunters like me, who are not strong but wander alone in the Wasteland, are in the minority."
"If it is a powerful high-level cultivator, their computing power is relatively high. They should be able to remember more information about demon beasts."
"And if they are hunting in groups, among the many companions, there will always be someone who knows the information about demon beasts. Even if they don't know, they will have time to slowly look it up on the crystal processor."
"Since I can't find it on the market, how about... I refine one myself?"
Li Yao's heart was moved. His fingers suddenly became itchy.
Ever since he had refined some flashy magical equipment during the winter vacation, he had been diligently laying the foundation. Usually, he would only refine some parts with complicated structures to lay the foundation. At most, he would modify the sabers and guns that he used.
Refining a brand-new type of magical equipment, could a freshman like him do it?
Li Yao increased the speed at which he stuck the Frost Glyph on his forehead. The cold caused his teeth to chatter, making "Ka Ka" sounds.
While shivering, he calmly thought.
"For my needs, this type of magical equipment must have information about millions of demon beasts built in."
"No, there is no need to have millions of demon beasts built in. As long as it has information about demon beasts that may appear in a specific area, it will be fine."
"For example, if I am hunting in the Wasteland, then there is no need to include information about demon beasts in the sea and forest."
"This way, the amount of information can be greatly reduced. It can store hundreds of thousands of information, which can be done with ordinary storage chips."
"Secondly, this type of magical equipment requires an extremely precise camera that can detect demon beasts from a certain distance away. Most importantly, it needs to scan every detail of its body."
Li Yao thought for a moment. This could be done.
A camera is a special type of magical equipment. In the world of cultivators, it is also called a "crystal eye". Its structure is extremely complex, and it contains countless lenses and array glyphs.
The most advanced camera, which can even illuminate the soul of a cultivator and the original form of a high-level demon beast, is known as the "Demon Revealing Mirror"!
In the world of cultivators, there are quite a few refiners who spend their entire life refining a type of magical equipment like a crystal eye.
They would even spend more than ten years carefully crafting a top-grade crystal eye, but they would not take it out to trade. They would just play with it in their hands and take pictures.
According to their saying, there is a wonderful joy in every inch of space, and it is not something that outsiders can tell.
No matter what other people say, "Crystal Eye will ruin three generations, camera will ruin a lifetime", they would still never get tired of it.
Although Li Yao knew nothing about crystal eyes, in this day and age, whether it is cultivators or ordinary people, they are more and more fond of using micro crystal processors to take pictures. What followed was the continuous development and commercialization of crystal eye technology.
At present, on the market, there are many types of crystal eyes with powerful functions to choose from.
Although, according to Li Yao's requirements, the price is certainly not cheap, this thing can be used for a long time. Gritting one's teeth, it is still acceptable.
"Another problem is, after the crystal eye captures the appearance of the demon beast, how to compare it with the vast amount of information in the database."
"This requires a very powerful algorithm, and it also requires a special array glyphs for comparison."
Li Yao nervously pondered. A drop of cold sweat had just seeped out from his forehead when it was immediately frozen into a small ice bead by the freezing glyph.
Not long after, his forehead was covered with small ice beads.
His eyes, however, became brighter and brighter, more and more scorching, as if they could melt all the small ice beads.
"The algorithm is not a problem. I have mastered so many ancient and modern algorithms. If I use a large crystal processor to repeatedly try, I can always find a suitable algorithm."
"As for the array glyphs for comparison, that is even less of a problem!"
"On every crafting furnace, there is an array glyphs for comparison. This is the array glyphs that we, refiners, are most familiar with!"
When a refiner is refining a mass-produced magical equipment, it is impossible for them to only refine one component at a time.
Last time, when he had a showdown with Empyrean Terminus Sect's refiner Jin Quan, the two of them had each refined a nail. That was purely to show off their skills.
In a normal crafting operation, hundreds and thousands of identical components would be refined in a single furnace.
As for whether or not these components were truly "identical", and whether or not there were any flaws, it would depend on the array glyphs for comparison.
Many magical equipment have extremely high requirements for the precision of the components. A high-grade array glyphs for comparison could distinguish even the difference between a strand of hair.
Different species of demon beasts may look similar, but it is impossible for the difference between them to be smaller than the difference between a genuine nail and a defective nail, right?
Even a genuine nail and a defective nail refined in a furnace could be distinguished. Identifying the species of demon beasts, wouldn't that be a piece of cake?
"Done!"
Li Yao snapped his fingers with a crisp sound. He was so excited that he wanted to let out a long howl.
"Information library, crystal camera, array glyphs for comparison, algorithm … There are no problems with all the key points. With the current technical ability, it can be completely solved!"
"The only problem is that the crystal camera, the storage chip, and the computing chip that carries the array glyphs must all be gathered within a square inch. This is because this magical equipment cannot be too big. It must be very light and portable, so that it can be carried around. During battle, it can automatically retrieve information and free both of my hands!"
"Let me think, let me think …"
In Li Yao's mind, countless magical equipment structures floated to the surface of the sea. They rapidly rotated, constantly expanded, and exploded into pieces.
Half a minute later, with a flash of inspiration, a slightly eccentric magical equipment structure jumped out.
"This is it!"
Li Yao fiercely waved his fist, as if he had caught a flash of light in the air.
He plunged into the Super Perception Cabin, and his soul escaped into the Heavenly Refining Tower, where he began to frantically draw! Floating astronomy.
