Chapter 420 Sodium Chloride

These sodium chlorides are used as early-strength agents and antifreeze agents, and are generally mixed into cement concrete structures that do not contain steel bars inside, which can increase the strength of cement concrete to a certain extent... However, Qi Lin didn't think of this , but a boring thing he once did.

It was a French snail found by Qi Lin from the back kitchen of a restaurant. These snails were originally intended to be used as ingredients, but the chef and diners of that restaurant died together after a human bomb attack. When Qi Lin and the local peacekeeping force arrived, there were only bloody corpses lying all over the restaurant, and these snails were packed in a cage in the back kitchen, and the chef hadn't had time to deal with them.

The others went to set up a cordon around the restaurant, while Qi Lin and the others had the task of staying in the restaurant temporarily. Qi Lin was bored for a while, so he grabbed a French snail and put it on the chopping board.

The snail was free, and naturally began to squirm and run away, but at this time, Qi Lin grabbed a lot of salt and sprinkled it on the snail.

Even though the snail curled up painfully, its soft body retracted into the shell, but even so, it still couldn't escape the fate of death.

For molluscs such as snails, things like salt are completely indistinguishable from poison.

That's because, on the body surface of molluscs, there is no protective skin. The thin layer of skin is similar to the cell membrane. As mentioned in middle school biology textbooks, the cell membrane has a characteristic called permeability.

When the concentration of the external solution is greater than the concentration of the tissue fluid in the snail, water will seep out of the body through the cell membrane, so that the snail will die due to dehydration.

And slugs, commonly known as "slugs", are actually snails without shells. They both belong to the phylum Molluscs, the class Gastropoda, the subclass Pneumonia, and the order Stalkeyes.

Isn't that monster entrenched on top of the reactor an "oversized" slug?

A thought suddenly popped up in Qi Lin's mind: If these bags of sodium chloride were sprinkled on that monster... I don't know what effect it will have?

If the monster can be weakened or simply killed with these sodium chloride, then there is no need to mobilize heavy weapons to attack, and the nuclear reactor of the Herrons Power Station can naturally be relatively intact. Save it.

...

But before sprinkling these large bags of sodium chloride on the monster, Qi Lin had to do an experiment first—it’s best to find a tentacles of that monster to try, although the monster looks like a slug, However, given that its tissue fluid is highly corrosive and can absorb all kinds of energy, it cannot be compared with molluscs like ordinary slugs at all. If the concentration of its cell fluid is very high, the effect of sprinkling salt will be negligible.

"I don't know what weapons this Type 33 power armor is equipped with?"

Just when Qi Lin opened the weapon list, the crisp synthetic female voice when the power armor was activated sounded again: "Because you have not been officially authorized, you only have the minimum C-level authority. Under the C-level authority, the weapon system It will not be open to you, and you have no right to view or use any weapons of this power armor."

"Fuck...this is too bad..." Qi Lin felt a pain in his heart. It was the first time he had come into contact with the intelligent operating system of the three-three power armor. He thought that since he could activate the power armor Woke up, there must be no problem, who knew there was such a thing as hierarchical authority.

It's like dating a girl, and both of them got up on the bed, Qi Lin put his little brother in a little bit, and the girl suddenly said, "I'm sorry, because your authority is insufficient, please don't put that layer of film on it. Pierce." Same.

If this Power Armor is really a girl, Qi Lin will definitely go straight to the overlord's bow, but the problem now is that, facing this iron bump, even if Qi Lin wants to "the overlord's bow hard", he has no way to do it...

But fortunately, the mechanical arm structure of the Type 33 power armor is similar to that of human hands, so even wearing this power armor, Qi Lin can still use his GS-03 Gauss pistol.

Wearing power armor, as soon as Qi Lin walked out of the temporary warehouse, a tentacle rushed towards him. Qi Lin immediately grabbed the front end of the tentacle with the mechanical arm of his left hand, and then held the Gauss pistol with the mechanical arm of his right hand. Reaching the middle of the tentacle, he pulled the trigger again and again!

The one-meter-long section of the front end of the tentacle broke off in an instant, and the wounded tentacle was continuously sprayed with foul-smelling liquid, and quickly retracted.

Holding the tentacle that was still struggling violently in his hand, Qi Lin quickly turned back to the warehouse. He didn't have much time. When the monster spawned the other tentacles long enough, the temporary warehouse would be destroyed immediately. To the siege from all sides.

Folding off a metal tube with a sharp cut from the metal shelf on the first floor, Qi Lin quickly opened a large bag marked "refined industrial salt (sodium chloride)", and those white crystals immediately disappeared exposed to the air.

Holding the severed tentacles, Qi Lin directly pressed them into the salt pile——

As soon as it came into contact with sodium chloride, the broken tentacle struggled more violently, spreading the salt all over the place, but soon, the strength of the tentacle's struggle quickly diminished, Qi Lin saw It was noticed that all the sodium chloride dissolved where it came into contact with the tentacles, and the entire tentacle gradually shriveled up.

"This method works!"

Qi Lin was overjoyed, and immediately threw the inactivated tentacle on the ground. The left and right mechanical arms each grabbed two 50-kilogram bags of "refined industrial salt" and held them under his armpits, and ran out of the warehouse. go.

Killing the one-meter-long tentacle of that monster only consumed a few catties of sodium chloride, but now, the four bags of "refined industrial salt" in Qi Lin's hand cost a full two hundred kilograms !

Qi Lin can be sure that with this "big gift", even if the monster does not die, it will still be enough to drink a pot!

...

With the assistance of the power armor, Qi Lin no longer needed to climb the ladder outside the cooling water tower. The knee and ankle joints of the power armor slightly bent and flicked, and the whole power armor took Qi Lin directly up the four-wheeled road. Meteor-high roofs.

In terms of power and mobility, the Type 33 armor was once more than ten years ahead of the same type of power armor.
