I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 269 Minister Xie’s Generous Move

Seeing that Xia Yuan looked like he wouldn't want it even if you gave it to him, Xie Xuan could only shake his head regretfully.

However, the reason why he did not insist was that he understood that this kind of clothes that can withstand temperatures of 2,000 degrees is not very practical.

The only people who can use this kind of clothes are extraordinary people, but this kind of clothes is not a necessity for extraordinary people.

Unless it is improved on the basis of high temperature resistance, it will be like the combat uniforms in science fiction novels.

It must be resistant to high temperatures, have high strength and toughness, and also be able to play a defensive role.

Not to mention whether it is possible to develop that kind of combat uniform with current technology, even if it can be developed, the cost will be exaggerated and frightening.

Without continuing the topic, Director Zhang was already arranging people to conduct the next test!
"Next we will conduct a strength test."

Before the formal test, he asked the usual question.

"Mr. Xia, do you have a rough idea of ​​your strength?"

Xia Yuan shook his head.

"Well, it's probably at least a few hundred tons, but I'm not sure exactly."

He could roughly know the speed, but he had no idea about the strength.

After all, with his current strength, it is not easy to test out his specific power.

I just don't know if there is any way to test it here at the institute?
"Hundreds of tons?"

Hearing this data, Director Zhang nodded.

After seeing the speed of Mach 11 just now, I wouldn’t be so surprised even if I heard about the force of hundreds of tons!

"In that case, let's use the horsepower tester to test it!"

"Can a horsepower tester test strength?"

Xia Yuan asked curiously.

"Well, with your strength of over a hundred tons, ordinary strength testers can no longer detect it, so we have to use a horsepower tester instead."

"Although they are usually used to test engine power, they can also be used to determine the magnitude of force."

In fact, it is also possible to express Xia Yuan's strength in terms of horsepower. There is no need to test how many kilograms of explosive force he has.

Because 1 horsepower is actually the work done to lift a 75 kg object one meter in one second.

To achieve this, you need at least 75 kilograms of strength.

Otherwise you can't even mention it.

So, in a sense, there is nothing wrong with horsepower representing power.

Even horsepower has more real-life applications.

For example, cars, ships, airplanes, and even rockets.

We usually use power units to describe the power required to drive these vehicles.

Under normal circumstances, it takes about 100 to 200 horsepower to drive an ordinary car.

Luxury sports cars can reach 500-800 horsepower.

Although this number is not large, it is actually a huge force!

You should know that an average adult can only generate about 0.3 horsepower at the highest power output state.

Even world-class weightlifting champions can only generate about 1 horsepower.

According to Xia Yuan's estimation, even if one cultivates to the innate level, the horsepower that can be generated is only about five to ten at most.

He had tested his strength with a punching force tester when he was born, and the maximum strength was only about 700 kilograms.

So at most, Xiantian can only have ten horsepower.

Only after awakening, when the physique transforms into a physical body, will strength leap forward.

At that time, he had just awakened, and a punch he threw at random could weigh at least 1200 kilograms.

After fully adapting, he tested it again. Xia Yuan remembered that it was when the physical strength was 3 points.

He struck with all his strength, and the force displayed on it was 2800 kilograms.

As for what happened later, I don’t know the specific data.

Because the strength that can be exerted by 4 points of physical body has exceeded the limit of the punch force tester.

It is not ruled out that the instrument worth a few hundred dollars is a smuggled product. How can a body with 4 points of physical strength have a strength of 4000 kilograms?

Since then, he has never tested his strength again.

"Looking at it this way, five points of physical strength can give me about 100 horsepower. So what's the current limit of my physical strength of 100 points?"

2000 horsepower?

No doubt, it's far more than that.

Even if it is only 2000 horsepower, the force it can exert is at least over tons.

Xia Yuan suddenly became a little worried. Can this horsepower tester really test his own strength?
While he was thinking, the staff had already fixed the horsepower tester in the open space outside.

This device looks a little different from ordinary horsepower testers.

Its entire length is about three meters, with two pillars fixed to the ground on both sides and many pull rings tied to the front.

At this moment, Director Zhang continued to explain to him:
"The material used for this device you see is not ordinary metal, but is made of a very strong alloy."

"The maximum output power that a regular horsepower tester can withstand is around 700 horsepower, but the one in our institute can handle a maximum of 3500 horsepower. It can even test the power of some small cargo ship engines."

Having said that, Director Zhang coughed lightly before continuing:

"This kind of horsepower test machine is not commonly found on the market. Even if you have money, you can't buy it. Even our research institute only has one."

It’s not that the research institute cannot produce it, but this thing is not very useful and there are few opportunities to use it in daily life.

The most important thing is that the cost of making such a horsepower test machine is quite high.

Therefore, there is no need to produce so many. After all, even though the research institute is backed by Jiuzhou, the research funds are limited.

It is impossible to spend money on useless things.

But when Xia Yuan heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Do you have to say it so obviously?

Even Xie Xuan, who was standing by, couldn't help but turn his face away.

Is there anyone as straightforward as you?

But this cannot be blamed on Director Zhang.

If you ask a researcher to say something like this, it would be strange if he could do it well!
Where do people like them get the energy to study this stuff?

Wouldn’t it be great to have the energy to do experiments?

"Mr. Xia, let's go over and test it!"

Director Zhang's face flushed and he quickly changed the subject.

Obviously he himself knew that it was a bit too deliberate!
"Director Zhang, if I break it, you won't ask me to compensate you, right?"

"What I said just now about over a hundred tons was just a conservative estimate."

Walking to the horsepower tester, Xia Yuan couldn't help but ask.

The truth is, he felt that this thing might not be able to withstand his own strength.

Because 100 points of physical body will definitely not only produce horsepower, it is possible to add a zero at the end.

"Don't worry, this won't happen."

How is it possible to ask Xia Yuan for compensation?

Besides, he didn't think Xia Yuan could damage the device.

Although the maximum power it can withstand is only 3500 horsepower, it would take at least horsepower to damage it.

This force is already more than four hundred tons!

It is still far from the more than 100 tons that Xia Yuan mentioned.

Even if it's a conservative estimate, what if I double your money?

So he wasn't worried at all.

"Well, that's what you said!"

Upon hearing this, Director Zhang's eyelids twitched.

Somehow, he had a bad feeling.

But the test is about to begin, so it’s hard to say more.

And most importantly, there is really no better equipment to test it than this horsepower machine!
"When we test it later, just pull the two rings in front."

Xia Yuan nodded. He could still understand this thing.

After everyone had moved away, he grabbed the metal pull rings on the pillars on both sides. He noticed a subtle difference the moment he touched them.

It seems to be much heavier than ordinary metal.

But this point is nothing to him.

It's the difference between one piece of paper and two pieces of paper.

Well, no more!
"How many horses do you think he can pull?"

In front of a screen in the distance, several researchers were discussing in low voices.

"Based on what he just said, I guess there are at least a thousand horses, right?"

"One thousand? I think it's more than that, maybe even three thousand."

"Well, it's not impossible. After all, when he tested his speed just now, it was twice as high as what he said at the beginning."

Three thousand horses, this number is extremely exaggerated.

If this output power is really possible, it means that Xia Yuan can push some small cargo ships with his bare hands.

It’s incredible to think about it.

"Stop talking, he's about to start!"

In the video, Xia Yuan slowly straightened the pull ring.

Then on another screen, everyone immediately saw the sudden surge in numbers.

That’s right, it was still 0 the last moment.

But the next moment, the number 0 above jumped directly to 500 horses.

Then, the numbers started to soar.

[1000 horses, 2000 horses, 3000 horses.]

The whole process takes less than a second.

Being able to soar to 3000 horsepower at such a fast speed means he still has some energy left.

Although they had thought that Xia Yuan would be very powerful and had expected it to reach 3000 horses, they never expected it to happen so quickly.

However, just as the words fell, the data on the screen reached its limit.

3500 horses

Just at the moment this number appeared, a loud noise came from where Xia Yuan was standing.

Those two very hard metal pillars actually broke directly!
"..."

This scene stunned everyone!

The whole process is actually quite short.

It only took two seconds from the time Xia Yuan started pulling until the metal pillar broke.

It is very likely that he had just exerted enough strength and had already far exceeded the limit of this horsepower test machine.

"Fuck, this is fake, right?"

"Is this the more than 100 tons of force he mentioned?"

Xia Yuan in the distance sighed.

"You talk so cool, but this thing doesn't work!"

At this moment, Director Zhang and others also ran over.

"How do you feel? Did you use all your strength just now?"

Xia Yuan shook his head.

"No, I didn't even try hard."

"..."

Hearing this, Director Zhang's mouth twitched wildly.

Not much effort?

Is this human talk?
In fact, he didn't use much force and was quite restrained!
If he had used all his strength from the beginning, the data above would not have changed at all.

Instead, the device will be destroyed directly in that instant.

The reason why you can see the data above jumping at the beginning is because he is gradually increasing his strength.

Who would have thought this thing was so fragile.

During the whole process, he didn't even use half of his strength, maybe only one-tenth or one-fifth at most?

Xia Yuan is not very clear about the specific situation.

"Director Zhang, do you have any equipment that can test the limits of my strength?"

"No, this is already the maximum power our institute can handle. If this doesn't work, then it's really hard to test."

Director Zhang frowned. He was not worried about the damaged instrument, but was worried about how to test Xia Yuan's strength.

Their research is not focused on how to make instruments to test high-power devices.

Not only here, but there are almost no such places anywhere else.

After all, this thing is not used at all in normal times.

If you want to know the power, just calculate it!
Do we have to conduct experiments to find out the power of a large cargo ship or a rocket?

Not at all.

Moreover, they had never thought that there would be an extraordinary person like Xia Yuan.

Who the hell could have imagined that human power could reach 5,000 horses?
It is even more impossible to create one just to test Xia Yuan's strength at the moment. That is unrealistic.

Not to mention the high cost, time and technology are a big problem.

"In that case, if we want to test it, we can only use the most stupid method!"

Xia Yuan asked curiously:
"any solution?"

“Test it with real objects.”

"A physical test?"

Director Zhang nodded.

"Yes, we can convert the weight you lift or push into horsepower."

There is definitely a difference between simply increasing strength and explosive power.

Therefore, converting the success rate through a formula is a better way.

"There's just one problem. Judging from the current situation, your strength is at least 500 tons, or even much more."

"It's not easy to find an object weighing more than a thousand tons."

At this moment, Xie Xuan, who was listening to people talking on the side, suddenly spoke.

"I remember someone reported to me last time that there was an abandoned military freighter at the navy base next to the base."

Hearing this, Director Zhang's eyes lit up.

"Abandoned freighter? Approximately how much does it weigh?"

"I don't know the details, I'll ask someone to ask later."

The average cargo ship weighs about 5,000 tons, and it is very likely that Xia Yuan cannot lift this weight.

However, if it is an abandoned cargo ship, then the operating space will be greater!
However, if you want to accurately control the weight to a level that Xia Yuan can lift, that is a huge project.

"Why don't we just forget it? This is too much trouble!"

Although Xia Yuan wanted to know the limit of his strength, he didn't want to exert so much effort.

Damn, using the military's abandoned cargo ship to test yourself is really a bit exaggerated!

Regarding matters like this, only a few ministers in the entire Jiuzhou have the authority to make decisions.

"That's fine. Your test data can serve as a good reference for the future cultivation of Transcendents, and it will also allow us to better understand Transcendents."

"So this test isn't just for you."

Xie Xuan smiled and waved his hand.

Xia Yuan could see that Xie Xuan didn't seem to be trying to curry favor with him in this way.

The Jiuzhou officials probably want to know his own physical data more than he does.

However, this method of testing strength can only be used by Xia Yuan, and it is estimated that other extraordinary people later on will not be able to use it.

Having a horsepower test machine like that is enough!
"Okay then, Minister Xie, you can make the arrangements."
