Chapter 4: Second-order Ability

"Oh?" The doctor asked in surprise, "Have you repaired the broken electronic devices?"

"Ye." Meng Fan nodded and briefly stated the method of repairing electronic devices, which is nothing more than reconnecting the broken wires, which is not complicated.

However, repairing cracks is different. To distort hard metal, it needs to be harder and more tightly controlled, and the force and direction must be mastered to achieve the effect of tight sewing.

"Don't force it, let's wait." Doctor said, "Little Lucy is very efficient. I think she can prepare the materials I need in less than half an hour."

"Then I'll use this half an hour and try again." Meng Fan gritted his teeth and didn't want to give up.

"All right." As the Doctor said, he circled the submarine, reached out and knocked here and there again. After two minutes, he said to Meng Fan, "The metal material of this submarine's shell is very hard. It should be some kind of extremely tough alloy. It's not easy to repair it well. I want to be quenched at high temperature."

Meng Fan listened, nodded slightly, closed his eyes, and poured his spirit into a specific small crack again.

Concentrate the spiritual power little by little, finally converge to a certain point, slowly pull the walls on both sides of the crack inward to fill the gap of the crack...

The submarine is a huge machine. If you want to make this big guy run, dive or rise, it is easy for Meng Fan, just a simple order.

However, it is not so simple to control a small part of this huge machine. In order to fill this subtle gap, Meng Fan spent a lot of energy and time under the condition of concentration.

After a long time, Meng Fan took a long breath and finally filled this tiny gap.

There was almost no stop, and Meng Fan focused on the next subtle crack...

Gradually, Meng Fan became familiar with this process, and the mental energy consumed in the process of repairing became smaller and smaller.

Meng Fan was addicted to the repeated repair process and could not extricate himself. After a long time, Meng Fan finally controlled the time for repairing each crack within one second. It seemed that just released an idea just like joining the broken wire.

Next, Meng Fan gradually increased the number of cracks repaired at the same time, from one to two, and then four. After a while, he was able to repair dozens or hundreds of cracks at the same time in an instant.

From repairing the first crack to now, Meng Fan has spent a lot of time and reached the current level of proficiency. Practice makes perfect.

After repairing for a while, Meng Fan opened his eyes, but saw that the sun had set in the west, and it was already evening.

Doctor and little Jack sat side by side on the reef by side and couldn't help nodding and doze. There were many dark metal materials and high-temperature quenching equipment beside them. It seemed that these materials arrived very early, but Doctor did not disturb themselves.

Meng Fan stretched his waist lazily, took a long breath, and said to Doctor, "Doctor, it's all right."

"Hm?" The Doctor shook his head, woke up, looked at Meng Fan, and said, "You finally woke up. Just now, oh no, I didn't have the nerve to disturb you in the morning. How's it going? What did you find?

Meng Fan smiled, patted the boat and whispered, "I seem to have mastered the repair method."

As soon as Meng Fan's voice fell, there was a sudden 'kaka' bite sound in the submarine. Those small cracks gradually disappeared. With the disappearance of the cracks, the deformed tail of the submarine was slowly corrected and returned to normal.

At the moment the submarine was repaired, a bright light flashed in Meng Fan's mind, as if a door had opened, and the blue sky and white clouds suddenly became enlightened.

"Second-order ability - repair, open."

A man's voice suddenly echoed in Meng Fan's mind. Meng Fan was stunned and quickly turned around, but found nothing.

"Meng Fan, what's wrong?" Seeing Meng Fan looking around abnormally, Doctor was a little strange.

"Nothing." Meng Fan smiled reluctantly, "It seems that there is a person talking in my mind."

"Oh?" The doctor asked quickly, "Is it a man's voice?"

"Yes." Meng Fan nodded.

"I have had the same experience." Doctor said, "When I started the second-order and third-order abilities, a man told me the name of the ability in my mind. I think your experience should be the same as my experience at that time."

When Meng Fan first met Song Qing, he had congratulated himself on fully opening the first-order ability of the power - control. Therefore, it is inferred that the power should be graded, but his second-order ability was opened a little too late.

Meng Fan thought for a moment and asked, "Doctor, have you turned on the third-order ability in total? So, is there a difference between these powers?

"I don't think so. My three powers represent three fields of physical knowledge, namely physics, chemistry and biology. I don't think there should be a distinction between these scientific fields."

Meng Fan understood. Indeed, my first-order ability is mechanical control, and my second-order ability is electronic and mechanical repair. In terms of functional comparison alone, there is no difference between the two.

It seems that each level of a power is just a different skill of a power.

"But--" Doctor thought for a moment and continued, "It seems that only the ability of the controller has an equal level distinction. I have asked several of my companions that their abilities are very simple and not so many levels."

"Is this the difference between the controller and the follower?"

"It's possible." The Doctor spread out his hands and said, "It doesn't matter. Let's take a look at the submarine."

"Ye." Meng Fan agreed with Doctor's statement, "However, little Jack seems to be asleep. Don't wake him up. I'll do it."

After Meng Fan finished speaking, he gently raised his right hand. The submarine slowly rose with Meng Fan's gesture, like an airship, floating a distance in the air and steadily falling into the water.

Doctor clapped his hands and called a mechanical bird and told it, "Go and call Professor Tang and Dr. Qin."

The bird received the order and flew away quickly with a 'swish' and immediately disappeared without a trace.

After half an hour, Lu Jie drove a convertible and brought Tang Ji and Qin Wanyong to the seaside with them, as well as Qin Su and Xiao Ai.

"Is it repaired so soon?" Tang Ji's eyes widened and looked carefully at the submarine in the sea, with an incredible face.

"This is Meng Fan's credit." Doctor smiled and said, "He is a great mechanic and has just started the ability to repair machinery."

"Okay, Professor Tang, you can go in and have a try." This submarine belonged to Tangji, and Meng Fan was inconvenient to open it, so he handed over the start-up work to Tangji.

Tangji took everyone into the submarine and checked the equipment everywhere, especially focusing on the tail pressure test. After all the tests, he said to everyone, "Very good, very good. The current condition of this submarine is very good, and the tail pressure resistance is even 10% higher than before."

"Oh, is it better than before?" Meng Fan was a little puzzled.

"It's normal." Doctor explained, "The wall panel of this submarine is five meters thick, and there must be no gap in the engineering manufacturing process. For example, when the steel plate is quenched, it is easy to integrate into tiny bubbles, resulting in small gaps that cannot be seen by the naked eye. After fierce repair of the tail, the small gap that existed in the past has also disappeared, and it can naturally withstand higher pressure.

"That's it." Meng Fan scratched his head and said, "Then I'll fix other places as well."

"Brother Meng Fan, you seem to be very tired." Qin Su bit her lip and whispered, "Don't worry, I will go to the bottom of the sea this time. I won't put too much pressure on the submarine."

"You will go too?" Meng Fan was a little angry, "Susui, what are you kidding? That mausoleum devoured six people. It's very dangerous. You can't go, and I won't take you there!"

"Yo, sister, he won't let you go, then I won't go either." Xiao Ai curled his lips to Meng Fan and muttered, "Brother Meng Fan is so bad that he doesn't understand his sister's kindness at all."

Meng Fan did not want to take Qin Su and Xiao Ai deep into the seabed. Regardless of their strength, 10,000 meters of the deep sea is too mysterious, and the strange tomb is full of unknown dangers. The two girls are really not suitable for this kind of exploration.

"No." Qin Su shook his head stubbornly, "The ocean is the source of my ability. I must go!"
