Chapter 182 Blasting Operation Unlock: Silver-like supermetal. In his mind, Fan Ren looked at the unlocking instructions for the new technology, and his heart couldn't help but begin to beat faster. This is the top-grade super-strong metal used to make the Conqueror's external armor. Whether in terms of hardness, high temperature resistance or radiation resistance, it far exceeds the three titanium alloys. This is the material that will be used to build spacecraft in the future. 'Widely found in the lower crust of rocky planets.' After seeing this introduction, Fan Ren felt relieved. But after thinking about it again, he felt that this was what should be done. Otherwise, it would not be possible for it to be defined as the "core raw material for building spacecraft" by this mysterious "spark of civilization". You know, the amount of silver-like supermetal used in just one Conqueror is of an absolutely terrifying order of magnitude. What is more noteworthy is that the silver-like supermetal on the Conqueror is a material with stronger effects formed after micro-processing and compression from an atomic perspective.
Therefore, for a piece of silver-like supermetal of the same size, the mass density used by the Conqueror is higher. Therefore, if this metal is extremely rare, it cannot be used on a large scale. However, this also explains why humans have never discovered ore containing this metal. It's too deep. It has to be at the bottom of the earth's crust to have a chance of being generated. Take the Blue Planet for example, the crust can only exist 30 kilometers below the surface. The deepest hole humans have dug so far is only 12 kilometers. It's a far cry. correct! "A-Dai, contact Guanghan Palace Base immediately and ask them to send people to the deep pit where we first experimented with liquid metallic hydrogen to conduct excavation and exploration sampling. The excavation depth should be 30 kilometers to the lower layer of the lunar crust. Metal dense bombs can be used for blasting deep operations. As soon as possible, send the Conqueror to go directly into the sky to pick them up." Fan Ren opened his eyes and said urgently. "Okay, Boss, I'll arrange it right away." Upon hearing this, Ah Dai did not ask the reason, but immediately began to mobilize his powerful brain at a rapid speed. A dense bomb, that is, the kind that was tested in deep space not long ago, is made of liquid metallic hydrogen as the main 'explosive' and is detonated by the high pressure and high temperature conditions caused by nuclear fusion reactions. The way this thing is made is so easy that it makes you question your life. The main reason is that liquid metallic hydrogen atoms are extremely stable and not easily ignited or exploded. Therefore, its storage conditions are also extremely low. Here, Ah Dai directly applied for a small batch of hydrogen bombs from the military. Due to the importance of hydrogen bombs, the military sent a team led by Li Jian to escort them. The Conqueror's fuel room is fully stocked with liquid metallic hydrogen, so there is no shortage of it. A few hours later, the huge dark green body of the Conqueror once again flew to the back of the moon, to the deep crater caused by the last explosion. "At a depth of 20 kilometers, no abnormal minerals were found. We are applying to continue blasting at a deeper depth."
"Allowed. Once the safety of the relevant personnel is ensured, proceed immediately. When will the exploration team arrive?" Fan Ren regained his composure in the space hub office. Since the explosion was so powerful, he reminded people to be safe. "The exploration team is already on the Conqueror. They are professionals brought by Boss Li, and they have all the necessary equipment." "Second brother, just wait for my good news." After Ah Dai finished speaking, Li Jian also assured him. "Okay, remember, it's a green metallic mineral, it's not radioactive, bring it back for testing as soon as you find it." Fan Ren still seemed to be sitting calmly in his office giving orders, but these words still revealed his nervousness. "Hey, boss, have you forgotten? The testing room on the Conqueror has been restored by me?" This time, Ah Dai did not speak in the public channel, but was joking with Fan Ren alone. Hearing this, Fan Ren smiled and patted his head, then replied: "Okay, I won't worry about it. I'll go to sleep." After this operation, it will take at least ten hours for the samples to come back, and it will be useless to worry about it here. It would be better to rest well and wait until the samples are brought back, then put all your energy into continuing targeted research. "Okay, boss. You take a break first. The blasting operation has started here." At this moment, listening to Ada's report on the progress of the operation, it was like a lullaby. Fan Ren, who had been tired for many days, finally fell into a deep sleep. On the far side of the moon, due to its depth, the light produced by this explosion did not illuminate the entire far side of the moon. But it does not mean that the impact of this explosion is less than the last time. "Please be careful, Guanghan Palace, please be prepared for the impact. The earthquake wave will arrive in 1 minute, and the magnitude is expected to be 5." Here, a moment after the explosion, after detecting the violent energy, Ah Dai immediately notified Guanghan Palace thousands of kilometers away to prepare. Since the lunar crust becomes harder as one goes deeper, the dense bomb used in this explosion is equivalent to a TNT bomb with a mass of 3 million tons. Because of this, and combined with the factors of the explosion's depth, the impact on the lunar crust was much greater. Soon, all the personnel stationed in Guanghan Palace were prepared to defend against the impact as if they were facing a great enemy. Until the earthquake wave came, the violent movement of the lunar crust immediately frightened everyone inside Guanghan Palace. "Major Shi, the seismic waves are over and production can be resumed. Don't worry, this is an explosion test we are conducting, not natural lunar crust movement." Ah Dai's voice reached the ears of Shi Xianliang, the general manager, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Ever since Li Jian was transferred away, he has remained on this barren planet for so many years. On the other side, after the bright light after the explosion dissipated a little, Li Jian and others in the Conqueror in the sky looked at the bottomless pit under their feet and were shocked. "Ah-Dai, is this the new bomb that Lao Er has been working on for several years? Is it so powerful?" Hearing this, Ah Dai chuckled and said, “The explosion method is very simple, but because it requires detailed inspection and testing, data collection, and theoretical research and discussion, the last formal explosion experiment was yesterday. But don't worry, Boss Li, this thing is very easy to make, and will be available to your military soon."
As they spoke, the deep space below gradually darkened as the ball of light produced by the explosion began to dissipate. "Boss Li, the Conqueror will descend into a deep pit on the far side of the moon. You and your exploration team can go to the traction area and use the tractor beam to reach the bottom of the pit. At the same time, all the exploration equipment can also be transported down together." Li Jian nodded. Once the mission started, he didn't say much and immediately led his team members to the prepared traction area. When the towing port on the Conqueror's belly opened, the gray-white traction beam immediately shone into the deep pit at the bottom left by the explosion. "Really!" Li Jian was covered with a layer of nano-coat and his eyes fell on the bottom of the deep pit, where a green light was flashing. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the dark green hull of the Conqueror and immediately understood the point. This is the dark green color that appears after compression and density concentration. The original material was green. "Follow behind and take your equipment." As Li Jian spoke, he jumped into the tractor beam first, and the feeling of weightlessness came again. One by one, the exploration team members followed suit. (End of this chapter)
