【Chapter 590: Energy Source Problem】

...

Ren Hong returned to the ground from the tunnel with a cable car box. When he returned to the ground, the base of Station 13 of Wushou was already in the evening. The carriage was full of the first batch of high-energy storage crystals mined and transported. There were a total of 750 dark purple crystals. Each crystal had the same mass and was of equality. It can be said that it was carved from the same mold.

The total mass of 750 crystals is only 150 kilograms, and this size is about the weight of two adults.

However, the total 750 pieces of purple source crystals, calculated based on the energy storage peak of a single block equivalent to 185 trillion joules of energy, these 150 kilograms of crystal ore can store nearly 140 trillion joules of high-purity energy.

This is an extremely terrifying data.

The first batch of crystal mines were transported out of the tunnel, and the people at the scene were immediately excited. All those who could come here were the best Republic elites. Naturally, they knew about Ziyuan Crystal. As astronomy, they knew more about what these purple diamonds mean.

"Prepare it properly!" Ren Hong exhaled and smiled.

After looking at the time, it was already evening, but he didn't know that time passed so quickly.

A staff member carried fifteen exquisite mobile storage boxes one after another. Three or five people immediately started to greet them, but Ren Hong did not stop. The storage boxes were made very exquisitely, and were also made of top-notch materials, with a stand-alone computer inside.

Ren Hong entered a series of instructions on the 7-inch display panel on the side, and the storage box was opened at any time. The inside was like a dense honeycomb opening, all of which were hollow, and each hole was a regular hexagonal shape.

Several other participants each carried a storage box and pulled out a hollow cylindrical tube with six edges from it. It was only 35 cm long, like translucent glass. The hollow cross-section just coincided with the mined purple crystal, which was obviously strictly calculated.

Three or five people immediately started to work hard and put pieces of crystals into the hollow tube. Each hollow cylindrical tube can be embedded in 5 pieces of purple crystals, a hollow cylindrical cylinder can be loaded with 1 kilogram of purple crystals, and a storage box can be loaded with a total of 25 hollow tubes, that is, it can be loaded with about 25 kilograms of crystal ore.

The first batch of 150 kilograms of melatonin crystals transported from the tunnel can be loaded in only 6 storage boxes.

Ren Hong filled a box alone, carried it aside, and stopped after getting it done.

The 150 kilogram crystal ore is almost completed. At that time, these storage boxes will be transported to several large containers, and will be transported into Mars orbit on the "Red Eagle" transport ship by Mars rover, and then transported back to the Earth through the "Mars Express", and then transferred to the "Tiangong Ring Orbit Star Port" to complete the interim transfer, and finally transported back to the surface of the earth using the aerospace transport aircraft "Arc Eagle".

A complete transportation system is very complete.

Ren Hong estimated that the second batch should be delivered in about twenty minutes.

"At this mining speed, a cutting machine can get 1 ton if it is dead in one day. The first batch is expected to transport 500 tons..." Ren Hong thought in his mind.

The collection efficiency of one ton this day is indeed a bit low, nearly half lower than the expected mining efficiency. The first batch of crystal ores transported back to the earth to reach 500 tons, which means 500 days, plus some other additional transactions, has exceeded 500 days.

Unless you are making several sets of cutters!

This idea appeared in Ren Hong's mind for a moment and was denied.

What a joke? Even the matrix technology can't stand the cost of a mobile cutter with more than 70 billion yuan (RMB). It's not an emergency moment, and no one comes to grab it. It's not a big deal to lose money for efficiency.

Thinking that this is the purple-source crystal, the top strategic material that is enough to leverage a new era and lay the foundation for the overlord of space, the output of one ton per day is also good. After all, it is not an iron ore, coal or rare earth ore, but this is a purple-source crystal ore.

"Professor Wang, it's getting late. You haven't eaten yet. People are iron rice and steel. Don't get tired of your body." Li Xingfeng, who was beside him, smiled.

After saying this, Ren Hong was really hungry, and immediately thought of the people in the tunnel: "There is also Mingjie, I'm more than the one who is hungry when I find someone to pick him up."

"Leave it to us, don't worry."

Ren Hong nodded, let out a moment of coldness and returned to the outpost base. He took off his protective suit and felt much more relaxed.

Ren Hong, who was enjoying dinner, was stumped by another thing that suddenly came to mind.

All the mined purple crystals are dark purple, and the high-purity energy stored internally accounts for less than 3%.

After being transported back to the earth, it is stored as a national strategic reserve material and is too heavy to store it as the highest secret.

Before the crystal is stored in the warehouse, each piece must be fully stored, otherwise the strategic significance will be greatly weakened?

What made Ren Hong difficult was where to obtain so much high-purity energy? If the ingestion of purple-source crystals is used with electricity, just this 150 kilogram of crystal ore, all the power stations in the world, and any form of power stations, it would be difficult to absorb these crystals in a year.

Or at present, two-thirds of the country's energy production capacity will be converted into these 750 crystals and stored in them. Continuous energy supply and savings will not be able to be completed within two or three years.

Can 750 crystals consume nearly 140,000 trillion joules of energy? How much power is it equivalent to when converted into electricity? And how much is the annual power generation in the world?

One thing that must be faced, Ren Hong is very clear about it.

That is, before entering the national strategic reserve material warehouse to seal each piece of purple, instead of dark purple, it would be a pile of waste batteries.

If there are crystal ores in the strategic reserve database that have reserved thousands of tons or even tens of thousands of tons of full energy storage, the significance of which is incalculable.

You should know that with the historic progress of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, global nuclear weapons have been sealed in the warehouse, but the missile warheads have been replaced with strategic and tactical-level emp warheads on a large scale. This high-energy weapon will not have fatal real-time damage to the strike zone, but it has a deterrent effect that is not inferior to nuclear bombs.

If a strategic-level emp electromagnetic pulse bomb is detonated in a super metropolis or even industrial cluster area, all power and energy facilities will be paralyzed in the area affected by the electromagnetic pulse light curtain. For today's modernization, paralysis of energy is definitely a nightmare, which means that the "blood circulation" is terminated and almost nothing can be used, and all production work will be completely stopped.

If a super metropolis is paralyzed from all power and energy facilities, then the city will inevitably be paralyzed and nothing can be operated.

For a state of war, paralyzing your energy facilities is equivalent to completely losing your advanced military equipment, electronic warfare, and information warfare. It is like being severely uncomfortable and passive, and logistics supply and rear-end equipment support will also be severely frustrated.

If in the future, a large number of important cities and cluster industrial areas will be hit by emp, and after the strategic facilities such as electricity and energy are destroyed, if at this critical moment, there will be a full energy storage Ziyuan crystal from the strategic reserve warehouse to mobilize it for emergency response, even if all the energy equipment is paralyzed, they will not be afraid at all.

The opponent destroys your energy facilities and tries to break your leg.

However, the full energy storage of the purple crystal can cope with all energy consumption, especially in this situation, and its role is even more self-evident.

The importance of factors such as military significance and strategic significance can be imagined.

Ren Hong said firmly: "Every piece of purple-source crystal must be fully stored in full energy storage before being put into storage. Otherwise, it will be a bunch of useless waste batteries."
