Monster Factory

Flammable ice, this thing, is made of natural gas and water, under high pressure, low temperature conditions, over a long period of time, from the formed ice crystalline material.

Because it contains a lot of flammable gases, plus solids, a cubic meter of flammable ice is a hundred and six times more combustible energy than natural gas.

At room temperature atmospheric pressure, combustible ice volatilizes on its own, ignites, and is naturally free of residue and cleaner than natural gas. It's like Nambovan in clean energy.

And this stuff is very rich, and once it's used on a large scale, it can completely replace coal and gas energy.

However, extremely harsh mining and storage conditions limit the development of flammable ice.

In the depths of the permafrost, in the thousands of metres deep beneath the sea, on the Antarctic continent, lies its figure. And flammable ice is solid, as strong as coal, and it's impossible to drill a deep well and pipe it out in the same way that oil is mined.

While at low temperatures, Professor Cai Chenning opened three flammable ice samples each and took a little bit with each tool.

The samples in the Siberian permafrost layer are gray, the yellow sea is light blue, and the Antarctic continent is completely transparent, like crystals.

Three samples, once in contact with the air, slowly overflow the visible gas.

Professor Tsai Chenning quickly loaded the samples into smaller metal containers and labeled the region of origin into the insulation box.

Flammable ice is not too rare, it just volatilizes when you see the air. Originally, Zhongyun University had several hundred grams of inventory, which could be tested several times. The flammable ice in front of it has volatily left only the size of the nail cover.

After thanking him, Ye Qing did not leave immediately. After all, he just took someone's gift.

Sitting in the lab, talking about burning ice. Leaning back, we talked about the most technologically advanced nuclear energy available. Ye Qing half-joked and laughed that the factory now costs tens of millions a month for electricity. I really want to build a nuclear power plant to power the factory.

“The technology of nuclear power plants is not difficult to manage safely.” Professor Tsai Chenning was amused: “If you want to build a nuclear power plant, it is estimated that at least half of Zhongyun will go to the streets to protest. ”

“I am saddened that, even if I had this technology, I would not have been able to obtain enriched plutonium. It is not possible for the Government to approve it. ”

“Plutonium is good! ”

“Weapon-grade plutonium is available, and there are many nuclear bombs in the ocean.” Professor Tsai Chenning laughed, "During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States sword-breaking crossbows, strategic bombers and nuclear submarine high-intensity combat cruises on both sides, had many accidents in the sea. ”

“I remember clearly that the first bomb in the United States was lost in 1950, called Mark 4, and was carried by a B-36 bomber, resulting in a malfunction when the bomber returned home and the bomb fell into the sea. ”

“Ah!”

Ye Qington stunned and couldn't believe his eyes on Professor Cai Chenning: “There are other things like this. ”

When he realized Ye Qing was surprised, Professor Cai Chenning was pleased to give this former student, now that he had a famous President Ye, he took another class in history that impressed him in that era.

“Haha ~ Yes, more than once. ”

“I wasn't born in 1950, but by the time I was born, we didn't have nuclear weapons in Huaxia. Americans and the Soviet Union have lost several nuclear bombs in the sea as a result of various bomber accidents. ”

“At that time, the people of Huaxia, who had been subjected to nuclear blackmail, saw in the newspapers the two superpowers of the United States and Soviet Union. After all the news of the loss of nuclear weapons, they hated not being able to jump into the sea to get nuclear bombs and hand them over to the State. ”

“Alas, at that time, the gap between us and the countries of Europe and America was so great that we all despaired. ”

Professor Cai Chenning sighed: “For the most impressive time, it was 1968, when the first nuclear bomb in our country exploded in a few years. Old American nuclear submarines have cruised the Pacific Ocean. ”

“As a result, a serious malfunction resulted in a nuclear submarine carrying a nuclear bomb sinking into the deep sea. ”

“At that time, dozens of U.S. nuclear submarines were cruising, on nuclear submarines, with nuclear reactors and bombs, and what we had in Huaxia. ”

“ …… ”

Without going through the years of the Cold War between the two superpowers of the United States, Ye Qing really didn't expect that so many strange and absurd things would happen.

Nuclear bombs are the greatest and most horrific invention in human history. It can be said to be lost and lost, and it is dozens of pieces.

However, thinking about the Cold War period, the tens of thousands of nuclear weapons of both countries, Ye Qing felt that everything was reasonable.

Even today, in the twenty-first century, plane crashes have fallen into the sea, and in any case there have been instances where they have not been found. Especially during the cold war, when electronics levels were extremely underdeveloped.

Continuing on this topic, Professor Chai Chenning gave Ye Qingkop, and the United States gave nuclear arsenals unexpected circumstances, several levels.

They are “Broken Arrow”, “Fold”, “Blunt Blade”, and "Empty Arrow Barrel”, where the loss of the nuclear bomb is the highest, and also when the "Broken Arrow” accident occurs.

Hundreds of “broken arrows” accidents have occurred, although most nuclear warheads have succeeded in finding their whereabouts, and dozens have remained unaccounted for so far. The earliest one was decades old, and the United States stopped searching long ago. Several of them knew about the approximate sea area, but were too deep to find salvage.

Even the Soviet Union, more so than the United States.

There is no doubt that the mountains are poor, and the darkest flowers are dawn and dawn.

We continued our conversation for a while. Ye Qing rose up with that little bit of flammable ice goodbye.

Ye Qinghe came the same way, walked on a trail adorned with plum flowers, and drove out of the school at leisure.

But after a bend, Lagunda roared and drove fast in the direction of the Dragon Creek Beach factory.

Ye Qing holding the steering wheel, his expression was slightly overwhelmed,

Sure ~ The monster factory will not give the impossible technology projects. A home-school trip not only solved the problem of flammable ice for Ye Qing, but even showed the way to acquire weapons-grade plutonium.

Flammable ice went directly to Antarctica for mining, and Professor Cai Chenning told Ye Qing that the flammable ice from sample C was from the Cheryl Survey vessel, brought from the extremely cold Antarctica.

Antarctica, due to its unique climatic conditions, conserves the most pure vast flammable ice resources. And some flammable ice is sealed directly on the surface of the ice and can be found by breaking open the ice. Unlike mining from the sea, only a little bit of the drill bit can be used to bring it up at the moment.

As for nuclear weapons…

That's right, Ye Qing decided to dive into the deep ocean to hunt for nuclear weapons that had been lost by the United States because there was weapons-grade plutonium there.

A nuclear bomb contains a minimum of five kilograms of weapons-grade plutonium, which also meets the requirements for the construction of an energy tower.

America doesn't have the technology to look for salvage, but Ye Qing does.

The Lord's Battleship, a product tailored to this program, is perfect for mining flammable ice even to Antarctica.

That way the energy tower can set up a factory in Longxi Beach!

Wait a minute

Ye Qing suddenly thought that the monster factory had been upgraded to the sixth stage, and of course the Lord's Battleship had also been upgraded to the first level.

Hurry up and go, Ye Qing forgot to watch the upgraded Lord's Battleship.
