第一百二十二章 机械种家族

（本章主要是对机械种的定义校准，前文我是无能为力……）
研究所内洋溢着欢快的气息，钱博士喜气洋洋地朝雷哲道贺。
“雷哲教授，不，接下来应该是雷哲博士了。恭喜恭喜。”
雷哲博士吗？也对，魔导机械种的实验进行到目前这种程度以及是可以全面宣告成功了。这对大夏意义重大，代表着国内机械种领域从跟风者到领头者的突破。
Although there are alternative mechanical species domestically, the range of adaptation of the mechanical species is too limited. Only the illusion and wind-based spirits can evolve into mechanical species.
魔导机械种则不同。随着魔灵进化的突破, 魔导机械种已经实现了对全体异灵的覆盖。这就意味着正心所有御灵都可以进化为魔导机械种，从而获得躯体。
It can be foreseen that the power of the upcoming Great Summer Spirit User will make tremendous progress, and even has the potential to obtain multiple Hooke-level mechanical species in a short period of time.
As the creator of the Magic Mechanism species, it is almost certain that Leizhe will be granted the title of Doctor in a special and definitive manner.
“同喜同喜。这个项目离不开钱博士您的统筹，和大家的共同努力。”雷哲心里有数，“而且魔导机械种还有很多问题需要我们去解决, 例如魔灵直到领主级才可以进化为魔导机械种，还是晚了点。”
Dr. Qian laughed and said, "Dr. Lei Zhe, these are all matters for the upcoming upgrade and replacement. In any case, today, the magic mechanical species has already gained a foothold. I am very much looking forward to the arrival of the mechanical conference. We will definitely shock the world!"

I am very much looking forward to the arrival of the mechanical conference. We will definitely shock the world!"
“确实如此。”雷哲点头。
“不管说道细节问题，趁你在这里，我们还是先把一些细节给确定了吧。”钱博士拉出一张统计表，“首先是魔导机械种的名称问题，是时候给他们正式确定称呼了。”
雷哲明白他的意思。目前使魔们的进化链条已经基本确定下来，蜕变级，精英级，领主级和祸王级四个阶位十一种属性，一共四十四个名称，刚刚打造出来的双属性使魔光是精英级就一共有五十五种之多。
这种情况下，如果不确定一定的命名规则，怕是能把人绕晕了。
几百个名字简单让人头皮发麻。
雷哲沉吟一会，首先看向蜕变级的使魔们。
Platinum book updates display before his eyes.
【Spirit species: xx familiar】
【Spirit type: magical mechanical species】
【Spirit level: metamorphosis level】
【Spirit Attribute: (Earth...Dark)】
【Spirit Feature:
Magic Network: Based on nanometer units that absorb spiritual energy, it can form a network with nanometer units of other attributes, thus enabling the conversion of its own spiritual energy into other attributes. Translated content:
Data thinking: The consciousness core of magic mechanical creatures is data-driven. They don't have much emotion, but they possess powerful computational abilities.

纳米聚合体：由特殊材料的纳米单元组成的机体。会随纳米单元数量的增多而增强机体强度。（蜕变级纳米单元数量为40.6亿万个）。
Spirit Gathering Unit: The nanounits that make up the body can autonomously absorb freely available spiritual energy from the air. Each hundred million units can store an additional 1 unit of spiritual energy.
Morphological Transformation: Magical mechanical species can morphologically transform into multiple forms.
微观结构：从微观世界开始组建的纳米级机械体。基本不具有其它机械种的高强度防御力，但灵巧度达到同阶生物的130%以上。
Magical Network: Combination Feature.
在将机械体的特性分离出来之后，使魔的异灵特性只剩下魔导网络和数据化思维两个。魔导网络是灵体和机械体共享的联合特性，主要特点是在联网之后，可以借助网络中其它成员来转化自身灵能的属性。
From Xiao Zhen's perspective, she is originally an electric-type being. However, after forming a network with her familiars, she can actually convert to their respective attributes at any time. She just rarely uses this ability.
Data-driven thinking is the foundation of being a mechanic. With this characteristic, even without the assistance of the Platinum Book, the magical mechanical beings can still pursue a career as a mechanics as long as they obtain the construct method of a thinking processor.
这是雷哲推广超凡职业的第一步，当魔导机械种遍布整个大夏之后，也就意味着机械师的传承也可以推广到整个大夏了。
Next is the unique mechanical characteristic of the Magitech race.
纳米聚合体这个特性决定了魔导机械种是纳米单元越多，机体就越强。按照雷哲的设定，蜕变级由40.6亿万个纳米单元组成，精英级则是406亿万，领主级4060亿万，祸王级40600亿万。
基本是以十倍递增。纳米单元的数量也决定了魔导机械种的体型。蜕变级基本就是手掌大小, 基础外形为长着蝠翼的圆球。精英级有家猫的大小，同时外形也是猫。
The lord-level beings have the size of a child, so they are directly set as cat-eared lolis.
祸王级就对成人体型, 所以设定中基础外形是人型。雷哲参考了梦境世界的魅魔们给它们设定了羊角猫耳，小翅膀，箭头尾巴和反关节蹄子的经典外形。
The microstructure endows them with greater agility than other mechanical species, but they are relatively weak in terms of defense. However, they can change their appearance at any time thanks to their mimetic deformation characteristics.
在拟态生物的情况下，自然满足上述定义，但如果变形模仿其它机械种的结构，它们完全可以牺牲灵巧性为代价，来将防御力提高到同类的程度。
The Convergence Core is based on nano units' fundamental capabilities. For example, a Transformative-grade magic-mechanical species can possess 406,000 units of spiritual energy storage, which is 40 times that of the same level! No race of spirits should ever engage in a war of attrition against a magic-mechanical species.
可以说，魔导机械种在低等级就拥有相当可怕的战力，但是这也导致它们在之后的进化之中也不会获得新的机械体特性，只能量变而不能质变。
After understanding the characteristics of familiars, Leizhe came up with an idea. "Let's name them based on their element followed by their rank, for example, a metamorphosis-level familiar of the fire element would be called Familiar·Fire One. An elite-level familiar of the water element would be called Familiar·Wave Two. Similarly, a master-level familiar of the wind and thunder elements would be called Familiar·Wind Thunder Three."
"Surprisingly, Dr. Qian agrees with Lei Zhe's taste in naming," "But, are there no evolution levels for dual system familiars? They start directly from the second type?"
Lei Zhe smiles meaningfully, "Not yet, but that doesn't mean there won't be in the future."
“也对！”钱博士点点头，又问道，“那么融合之后的魔导机械种呢？”
“直接在融合异灵的领主称呼前加魔导二字就可以吧？以这个桃花灵为例，它的正统三阶是桃花妖，进化为魔导机械种直接叫魔导·桃花妖就行了。”
“可以。”使魔们的名字确定之后，钱博士的眼珠子又转了一转，“雷哲博士，你看魔导机械种已经获得了关键性突破，接下来内短时间内都是和各种异灵的融合实验，其实就是记载资料，对吧？”
“确实如此。钱博士提这个的意思是？”雷哲有点受不了他的狂热眼神。
“那个，之前你不是设立了一个综合机械种的项目吗？我想问问有这个项目有进展了吗？”
感情是惦记上自己手里的存货了，不过自己正好需要工具人。于是雷哲直接让天心取出了熔炉贝，“这是我最新培育出来的蒸汽机械种——熔炉贝，它可以和熔炉虫一样作为蒸汽机械种的动力核心，同时还解决掉了属性紊乱的问题。”
Dr. Qian was shocked. It was just a casual question, but you actually obtained the results?
The creation of the Magic Mechanism Species is quite magical, but after all, they could participate throughout the process and had a foreseen outcome. However, this new Steam Mechanism Species seems to have only been proposed a few days ago, and it only has Dr. Lei Zhe as the temporary member. Yet, they have already obtained the results?
In shock, he grabbed Lei Zhe's hand tightly, "Is this really a spiritual power that can replace the Furnace Worm?"
Lei Zhe was startled by his burst of enthusiasm. However, he understood very well the man who had been working hard to unravel the secrets of mechanical species for decades.
Before the advent of Magic-mechanical species, the roots of mechanical species were monopolized by the White Star Alliance and the Lighthouse Federation. Each Melting Furnace Worm and Electromechanical Worm they released contained a backdoor that they set up.
That means, in necessary circumstances, they can forcibly take control of the highest authority of the mechanical body.
Researchers in Da Xia have been tirelessly studying how to crack the backdoor. Unfortunately, this backdoor was embedded in the underlying design from the beginning, making it impossible to remove unless the whole system is rebuilt.
所以大夏根本不敢大规模普及机械钟，生怕是为他人做嫁衣。
根据记载，大夏曾经冒险打算堆出一只机械祸王，借用点化能力来获得自己的机械种。可是在领主级进阶祸王级的仪式上，熔炉虫触发后门直接锁死，进化失败，领主陨落。
钱博士奋斗了大半辈子的最大心愿就是破解机械种的奥秘和拥有属于自己的机械种。
And this, was directly fulfilled with the appearance of Lei Zhe. Translation:
魔导机械种，和熔炉虫就这样被他漫不经心地掏出来。叫钱博士怎能不激动，怎么能不兴奋？
他颤抖着双手捧起熔炉虫，似乎不敢相信这是真的。
“蒸汽机械种的种子，你是怎么办到的？”
雷哲吐出两个字，“符文。”
It is true that the White Star Alliance and the Lighthouse Federation have strict blockades, but unfortunately, Lei Zhe bypassed their blockades directly using alchemy. Note: The translation is based on the provided text and may not be an exact representation of the original Chinese text.
"Runes?" Dr. Qian didn't think it would be that simple. "Forget it, I don't care how you did it. As long as there are results, it's impressive. Has this fusion furnace successfully created steam-powered mechanical beings along with other spirits?"
"Not yet," Lei Zhe shook his head. "They have just been born, and there are no successful cases so far."
Upon hearing that there were no successful cases, Dr. Qian was slightly disappointed, but quickly regained his composure. Because doesn't this mean that he has a chance to witness this historic moment?
“那就交给我来培育，你有多少熔炉贝？”
“一小个族群吧，一千多只。”
钱博士双眼发亮，“居然有一千多只，我这就去申请资源，我要用它们堆出一只祸王！”
After saying that, he left in a hurry, leaving Lei Zhe far behind.
However, Dr. Qian did give him a reminder.
"The King of Mechanical Disasters, huh? It could be used to restore the ecological balance of the divine kingdom."
青玉的神国生态圈缺少了凶灵和魔灵两个环节。雷哲觉得可以用魔导机械种和泰坦机械种来补全。
其中魔导机械种可以融合凶灵，泰坦机械种可以融合水系魔灵恰好可以填补生态圈的空位。而且还可以借用实验的名义从正心这里获得一定的资源补贴。
一箭双雕，简直完美。而且这其中雷哲还有另外的考虑。
泰坦机械种的根基是水系，这个就不解释了。
魔导机械种之所以选择凶灵，是因为雷哲对于它们的流派构成有了一个设想。
This idea is called extreme attribute.
From the transformation of Light Utterance Dual Fire, can we speculate that by merging two different attributes, purity and malice, and then fusing them again, it might be possible to use the conflicting powers of purity and malice to elevate the extreme attribute?
Of course, there must be other conditions involved that need to be explored slowly.
The current revealed problem is that there is no divine title to shelter, and ordinary envoys cannot withstand the power of extreme elemental attributes.
对此，雷哲的想法是让魔导机械种来承受。同一属性的精灵，怨灵，加上没有圣邪属性的凶灵机械种就构成了魔导极变流的基本组成。
Lei Zhe thinks this idea has potential. "Xiao Zhen, calculate the feasibility for me! Xiao Zhen?"
Looking around in confusion, Lei Zhe suddenly remembered that Xiao Zhen was not by his side, which made him feel a little melancholic.
……
无名的公园中。
身材犯规的少女正抱住白团子有一搭没一搭的荡着秋千。
“小真，你说阿哲怎么还不来找我们？”
变化为猫的小真白了她一眼，“不是你让白姐姐抹去了我们的行动痕迹的吗？阿哲要怎么找？”
“也是哦。”少女感觉全身都不得劲。离开阿哲的第一天，想他！
“你说那个女人真的会按计划进行吗？”
红衣出现在她身后，看着这个患得患失的少女，“这个计划不是你自己制定的吗？你居然没法保证对方会不会履行诺言？”
"Uh..." Qizhen choked up.
But just then, Xiaozhen had some new information. "That annoying bird sent a signal. She said the plan is going smoothly and to prepare for your date with A-Zhe!"
“约会！”少女成功满血复活。
