Volume 5: The Destruction of the Gods Chapter 26: The pinnacle of technology! (Part 2)
The electric arc on the [UU Material Generator] suddenly retracted, and the machine instantly became quiet, as if the electric field just now was an illusion. Then, as the purple progress bar began a new round of rise, the electric arc broke out again, covering the machine with a layer of blue-purple halo. Such an electric field would cause ordinary people to be electrocuted to death, but for a third-level extraordinary person, it would only make the hair stand on end. Shen Jin glanced at the interface of the power storage box and the [UU Material Generator], "Wow! Generating 1ml of [UU Material] consumed a full 100,000 kWh of electricity!"
The maximum capacity of the entire [MFE power storage box] is 400,000 kWh of electricity, and it can produce a maximum of 4 [uu substances]. It is simply an electricity-consuming monster!
However, Shen Jin was still able to keep calm at this time. After all, he didn't know how much [UU substance] could make an [iridium ingot]. What if... 1:1?
"Let me see how much [UU matter] and electricity it takes to copy [iridium ingot]!"
Shen Jin placed a complete Iridium Ingot that had just been synthesized from 9 Iridium Fragments in the Pattern Scanner.
After analyzing for 10 minutes, "Ding Ding Ding~!"
[Scan completed, results saved to the pattern storage machine]
[Iridium ingot, copying requires 120ml of UU material, power consumption 300000kw/h]
“You…!”
Shen Jin almost vomited blood. Is this system still a human being?
This adds up to 12.3 million kilowatt-hours of electricity required to produce one iridium ingot!
12.3 million kWh of electricity, is that enough for a small county to use for a month?
Shen Jin's wind turbines are grouped into 10 units. The wind turbines produced by the system are relatively powerful, and the efficiency of converting wind power into electricity is also very high. On average, each unit can generate 70,000 kWh of electricity per day, and each generator group can generate 700,000 kWh of electricity. There are a total of 4 wind turbines in Home No. 1, and the maximum daily output is 2.8 million kWh. This electricity supports Home No. 1's fully automated farming, automated smelting, factory/store electricity, and daily electricity consumption of residents in the base. Shen Jin stores the remaining electricity in various MFE power storage boxes for charging machines and equipment. In the past, it was more than enough, but now, as long as he uses a complete set of this replicator, the power will collapse on the spot!
A day's worth of electricity can't even make one [iridium ingot], "Wait! What will happen if we use [waste]?"
The [recycling machine] consumes very little power. Compared with these big electricity consumers, it is just a fraction. Shen Jin put some messy organic matter into the [recycling machine], produced a group of [waste], threw it into the [UU material generating machine], started it again, and was surprised to find that the power consumption has decreased!
It has been reduced by 1/4. "In this way...it only takes 75,000 kWh of electricity to make one [UU substance], and only 9.3 million kWh of electricity to make one [iridium ingot]!"
Still a lot!
With Shen Jin's current electricity level, a day's electricity is not enough to make one [Iridium Ingot]. "Hey... I'd rather mine if I can. This thing is hard to replicate even if nuclear power is available!"
Ultimately, it’s still a question of power generation.
"But... City Q and City D are both close to the sea, with strong winds all year round, and the wind resources are not consumed. We can build more wind turbines, and the quantity can be increased. For example... if we build 10 more wind turbines, wouldn't we be able to produce several [Iridium Ingots] every day?"
Shen Jin suddenly became motivated. It was not like he didn’t have the materials. He could make it! He could make it!
If it really doesn't work, we can install another 10,000 [solar generators], which can provide a lot of electricity every day. Once the amount is large, these will not be a problem.
"These clean energies can be considered as an effective supplement to nuclear power plants!"
For a moment, Shen Jin also.
I don’t feel too anxious anymore, it’s just a little troublesome. Fortunately, everyone in No. 1 Home has the ability to block up, so they can help Shen Jin with the work.
Shen Jin placed the entire set of equipment here. At least it wouldn't electrocute passers-by... and if it exploded, it wouldn't cause any casualties.
Shen Jin looked at the last few items of [Advanced Industry III], [Iridium Storage Box]
Synthesis formula: [Reinforced Iridium Plate] × 4 + [Steel Plate] × 4
[Reinforced Iridium Plate] Synthesis formula: [Iridium Ingot] × 4 + [Advanced Alloy] × 4 + [Diamond] × 1
Shen Jin frowned and did not make it. "One [Iridium Storage Box] requires 16 [Iridium Ingots], which is too much..."
Through the introduction of the machine, Shen Jin already knew the capacity of this storage box, 126 slots.
Exactly twice the size of the [Steel Storage Box]!
If Shen Jin can afford it, the storage capacity on his body will double again!
"There's no rush. Now I can bring everything I want with me. I'll keep the [iridium ingot] for now..."
After taking a look, Shen Jin turned to the next tool, the Iridium Drill.
It is also synthesized using [Reinforced Iridium Plate] and is an upgrade to the [Diamond Drill]. It greatly increases the mining speed and power storage capacity, and comes with [Precision Collection].
"What a pity... I seldom mine by myself anymore. I'll make one when I have extra!"
His subordinates have no use for this thing. Tools without the [Magnetic] suffix are not suitable for them.
【Mimetic board】
The synthesis of this instrument is not complicated, at least it does not cost [iridium ingots]. Shen Jin made a handheld tablet with a handle and an antenna. It can consume electricity to copy any material, and then copy the material to the dried [building foam]. Only the visual effect looks the same, but the material of the [building foam] has not changed. "Huh? Then can I live in a diamond house? Use the [mimicry board] to copy the material of the [diamond block] and make my house look like this. Hiss - blind them!"
Shen Jin used the [Mimicry Board] to absorb a red brick material and copied it to the wall of the grocery store. "Poof-"
I saw an arc flash by, and the wall had turned into red brick material, looking exactly the same !
Even Shen Jin, a third-level transcendent, couldn't find any difference with his eyesight!
But if you touch it carefully, it still feels like the material of construction foam, only the appearance has changed.
"Maybe... we can still do some disguises?"
Shen Jin had some thoughts, but he couldn't grasp them.
Next: [Explosion-proof Stone]
Using [compressed stone] and [high-grade alloy] to synthesize, Shen Jin made an extra set when he was making the machine and placed it on the ground. A stone with a bright gray alloy outer skin stood there. Since it was pieced together from [compressed stone], the quality was very high!
Very heavy!
It looks very hard. Shen Jin took out his [Nano Sword] and powered it up!
A sword chopped down, "Snap!"
There was a dent on the [explosion-proof stone], but it hadn't cracked yet. "Interesting!"
Although the [Nano Sword] is not the sharpest, the electromagnetic vibration on its surface can still cut things very quickly. Shen Jin then took out the purple [Mayuling·Cleaving Knife] and strengthened it three times with [Sharpness]. Its attack power is the highest among all weapons!
There is no doubt about its sharpness, chop again!
“Bang!”
There was a heavy blow, and the outer skin of the [explosion-proof stone] was smashed open. The chopper penetrated deep into the interior and finally got stuck in another piece of alloy skin without cutting it open. "Great!"
The defensive capabilities of the [explosion-proof stone] that Shen Jin couldn't completely split with a single blow were unquestionable!
"If we use this kind of stone to build city walls in the future, I'm afraid only level 3 zombies will be able to push them apart, right?"
Good stuff, stock up more!
at last……
The only thing left is what Shen Jin cares about most: the quantum suit!
"Hey... I still remember when I was driven out of Q City by the zombies, I wish I had a set of quantum armor. Half a year has passed, and I finally waited for this day!"
Shen Jin held his breath and concentrated to open the synthesis formula of the [Quantum Helmet] to see how much [Iridium Ingot] it would take!
[Reinforced Iridium Plate] × 6
"Hiss~! This is a system that uses 24 [Iridium Ingots]! What the hell!"
Shen Jin looked down on the system for a while before continuing to look at the synthesis formula:
[Nano Helmet] + [Chemical Helmet] + [Reinforced Iridium Plate] × 6 + [Advanced Circuit Board] × 6 + [Explosion-proof Glass] × 6 + [Lamberton Crystal] × 1
Synthesis...can't!
"【Iridium Ingots】are not enough, wait!"
There were [iridium fragments] coming out one by one, and Shen Jin was also in a difficult situation.
Shen Jin took another look at the materials of [Quantum Armor], 48 [Iridium Ingots]!
"Hiss~! My blood pressure is a little high..."
Continuing to look down, [Quantum Leggings], 24 [Iridium Ingots], [Quantum Boots], 24 [Iridium Ingots], Shen Jin took out a calculator and did some mental calculations, "A set of quantum equipment actually requires 120 [Iridium Ingots]! Why not just go and rob them?"
Shen Jin cried. If nothing unexpected happened, the little bit of platinum-iridium ore he got from Pakistan this time would not be enough to make a set of quantum equipment. "Oh, I also have this!"
Shen Jin found four pure iridium crucibles in his backpack. "These were given by the Tianluodiwang Laboratory. Let's see if we can decompose a few [iridium ingots] out of them!"
Putting four iridium crucibles on the workbench, it showed that 8 iridium ingots could be decomposed. Shen Jin smacked his lips and accepted them. "It's better than nothing!"
All the things of [Advanced Industry III] have been sorted out, and Shen Jin is preparing to work on electricity. Seeing that there are not enough [Iridium Ingots] to make a set, he has to use the [Replicator]!
“The question is… should we go nuclear or expand wind power first?”
A single power generation mode certainly cannot meet Shen Jin's needs. Using multiple methods together is the right way. Shen Jin suddenly thought of the explosion of the nuclear power plant in the game...
"Wait! I don't think I can run a nuclear power plant?"
In the game, the nuclear power plant may explode. If it is not operated properly, it will just explode!
The whole home is gone.
In order to be safe when playing games, Shen Jin rarely builds nuclear power plants. Occasionally, when he builds a nuclear power plant in the server, he asks a big guy to help assemble it. Those nuclear reactors, heat sinks, coolants, etc. are too overwhelming!
Shen Jin struggled for a long time, and after checking the system's synthesis formula, he discovered that the system had already provided a method for building a nuclear power plant. There were drawings on it, and as long as he followed the system's drawings, he could build it, put in fuel, and use it.
"Oh! You scared me!"
so!
Shen Jin decided to build a wind power station.
Because according to the system's construction method, the nuclear power plant does not have enough fuel rods to generate electricity, and more are needed!
Shen Jin's nuclear power plant has a larger power and uses more fuel.
"Then wait for Yang Ao..."
With no shortage of steel and iron, Shen Jin could have as many machines as he wanted in the early and middle stages of the industrial era. Even if basic materials were in short supply, the people from Tianluodiwang would supply them for him. How could the great country of China let Mr. Shen be without steel, iron, copper and tin?
If this gets out, it will make people laugh to death.
Shen Jin made 100 wind turbines and 100 [carbon rotors] in one go, consuming a large amount of coal, which was probably enough to make 100 [industrial diamonds]. "Fortunately, I asked Li Zhe to go to S Province to get coal , otherwise the coal would be out of stock. It turns out that no matter how much is stored, it is afraid of mass production!"
Shen Jin took out his cell phone and called Liu Jin. Liu Jin, who was on duty at the city gate, was startled and quickly answered the call, "Boss, what instructions?"
"Bring over all the idle people from the Yang'ao Self-Defense Force and your city gate guards to help me with... infrastructure construction!"
Liu Jin looked panicked: "Fencing? Do we need so many people?"
"Of course! It's too slow for me to do it alone, bring some people here quickly!"
hang up.
Liu Jin looked at his phone with a complicated expression, "I didn't expect that the boss's taste changed after going out... The guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes usually likes this. Sure enough, there are so many gays in Afghanistan! Damn Afghanistan!"
An hour later...
Liu Jin built the base of the wind turbine with a disappointed look on his face. "So it's this infrastructure?"
"What else?" Shen Jin was very surprised.
Many hands make light work. With the support of the huge amount of [pebbles] in Shen Jin's warehouse, 100 wind turbine bases were quickly built. Shen Jin flew over and began to install and debug them one by one. He also connected all the lines to the large charging station in the inner city. There were originally 100 [MFE power storage boxes] here, and Shen Jin made 10 [MFSU power storage boxes] and put them in. Each box can hold 4 million kilowatt-hours of electricity!
The entire charging station has a storage capacity of a terrifying 80 million kWh!
These power storage boxes serve as buffers and storage for electricity. If the power is sufficient and they are all full, Shen Jin will take some of them away and replace them with empty power storage boxes. In this way, there will be more and more fully charged power storage boxes in his backpack. "Hehe~! My [MFSU power storage box] can store 4 million kWh of electricity? Who would spend 100 [world coins] to get your 1~! 200,000 kWh of electricity? I'm not stupid! I might as well keep the [world coins] to open a few more expansion modules!"
After Shen Jin finished building the 100 wind turbines, a day passed. A gust of wind blew, and the tall towers standing on the coast, like giants guarding the home of Guardian No. 1, began to turn their heads... and the power in all the storage boxes began to rise wildly!
The power of nature creates a large amount of electricity. Shen Jin smiled slightly, "Isn't this the electricity that can be used to make [UU matter]?"
Still on the rooftop of the 32nd floor, Shen Jin pulled the circuit of the charging station directly over here to charge four machines. No, five machines. A [recycling machine] was placed on the [UU material generating machine]. He also used [bronze pipes] to transport rotten leaves and other things from the vegetable garden over to make [waste] specifically to supply the [UU material generating machine]. This way, 1/4 of the electricity can be saved!
It's not a small number.
Shen Jin did some calculations. Normally, 100 wind turbines can generate 70 million kWh of electricity every day. It takes 9.3 million kWh of electricity to make an iridium ingot. "If that's the case, 7.5 iridium ingots can be produced every day!"
Shen Jin suddenly felt that... if he took bigger steps, the quantum suit wouldn't be that difficult?
"The [Copier] is truly amazing! Even though it consumes a lot of electricity, but...it doesn't matter. Electricity won't run out anyway!"
Shen Jin figured it out. Resources cannot be hoarded. Accelerating progress is the key!
"Once the quantum suit comes out, it will be time to speed up..."
