For example, the most urgent task is to clear the blood clots. From the moment I gave the order until now, only 0.73% has been cleared in two hours. At this rate, it would take 278 hours—eleven and a half days—to completely clear all the blood clots in the blood vessels. And that's when the blood clots in the vessels aren't even that large.
If the maximum number of units could be controlled, it would take less than three hours to finish. Besides blood clots, there are still many other areas on Henry Grant's body that need medical attention. Ten thousand robots are simply not enough.
Take weight loss, for example. Type I robots can fully achieve the goal of losing weight.
Nanorobots themselves rely on burning the body's fat to obtain energy. Under normal circumstances, one nanorobot can consume 0.3 micrograms of fat per day.
However, if Henry Grant wants ten thousand nanorobots to burn off his 150 jin of fat, it would take twenty-five million days—nearly 68,500 years. If he wants to lose weight solely by relying on nanorobots, at this speed, it's hopeless in this lifetime.
If losing weight is this difficult, it's easy to imagine that treating other diseases would be even harder. Therefore, increasing the number of nanorobots has become the top priority.
The good news is that nanorobots can self-replicate. The bad news is that the materials needed for self-replication are micron-sized titanium powder. At least for now, Henry Grant has no clue where to find micron-sized titanium powder.
“What’s today’s date?” Henry Grant asked William Clark. After walking just two or three hundred meters, Henry Grant was already a bit out of breath.
“The 3rd,” William Clark replied, and as if worried that Henry Grant might not remember clearly, he added, “Three years ago, today was the day the Galaxy was forced to anchor in international waters. Does that help you remember this moment of surviving a great disaster more clearly?”
Henry Grant fell silent. William Clark was a hot-blooded youth, but at this time, which college student wasn’t? Didn’t Henry Grant himself also clench his teeth in secret whenever he heard the name Galaxy?
That was an insult that made every Chinese person grit their teeth in anger. But in that dream of the future, Henry Grant saw a different scene: the motherland was strong, confident, composed, and beautiful.
In the dream of the future, Henry Grant saw a very interesting phrase: “We fight all the way, not to change the world, but to keep the world from changing us.”
It sounds philosophical, but now, Henry Grant suddenly feels that if he could change the world just a little, maybe it would be even more interesting. After all, he already experienced that kind of world in his dream—what’s the point of repeating it?
Henry Grant doesn’t dare say he can definitely change this world, but relying on the things he knows from his dream, he should at least be able to speed up some changes, right?
Chapter 0002: I Want to Change the World (Part 2)
“Blood clot removal progress: 99.99%, continuing removal…”
“Blood clot removal progress: 100%, blood clot removal complete.”
When Henry Grant took the train home and rested for a few days, he finally saw the message that the blood clot removal was complete.
“This removal took 278.4 hours, a total of 1.3569 cubic centimeters of blood clots were cleared, and the amount of blood clots in the blood vessels is now zero.” Immediately after, Henry Grant saw the statistical report.
There was actually just under 1.4 cubic centimeters of blood clots in his body. Fortunately, they were cleared; otherwise, who knows when and where they might have caused problems—it would have been a real ordeal for Henry Grant.
Maybe it was the excellent treatment effect, or maybe it was psychological, but in an instant, Henry Grant felt refreshed and indescribably comfortable all over.
“Treat coronary heart disease!”
“Insufficient data, unable to proceed.”
“Treat hypertension!”
“Insufficient data, unable to proceed.”
“Treat hyperglycemia!”
“Insufficient data, unable to proceed.”
“Treat hyperlipidemia!”
“Blood lipids are being continuously consumed…”
……
After a series of tests, Henry Grant finally determined what the nanorobots could currently do.
First, the activity range of the nanorobots is limited to blood vessels and muscle tissue; they cannot reach other areas.
Second, the functions of the nanorobots are very simple. In the blood vessels, they can only do some crushing work, such as clearing blood clots or breaking up large clusters of blood lipids.
In muscle tissue, what the nanorobots can do is release simulated bioelectricity to precisely control the movement of some muscle fibers.
“How do I obtain data?” After receiving too many “insufficient data” responses, Henry Grant finally asked.
“Upgrade the control system version.” This time, Henry Grant got a clear answer.
Immediately, Henry Grant remembered that the necessary condition for upgrading the control system seemed to be to increase the number of nanorobots as soon as possible. The maximum controllable number is one million.
“Micron-sized titanium powder… Looks like I’ll have to figure something out at Dad’s factory first.” Henry Grant pondered, then thought about what excuse he could use to go to the factory. After all, Henry Grant hadn’t been to his father’s factory in several years, and suddenly wanting to go would be a bit strange.
Fortunately, the excuse was ready-made. Now Henry Grant is riddled with illnesses, and no matter what, the first thing he needs to do is treat his own ailments bit by bit—losing weight is the top priority.
