Chapter 890 - Muddy Waters
The secret of superconducting crystals was finally leaked, and a large consortium immediately offered an extremely high purchase price for it, attracting more and more people to flock to the abnormal area within the sovereignty of Persia, and the popularity even exceeded that of the other two abnormal areas.
In the new town surrounding the giant flying ship, breathing equipment that can adapt to the atmospheric environment of the Giant Ao Star has become a hot commodity, and the prices of special breathing equipment on the entire Blue Star have also risen sharply.
In recent times, all companies producing respiratory equipment have been almost flooded with investors from all directions. Because of this sudden wealth, the stock prices of listed companies have become like aphrodisiacs. The candlestick charts have soared to the sky, and the market value has hit the daily limit one after another. The shareholders are all smiling and watching their wealth soar.
However, the two secrets of nuclear reaction crystallization and laser crystallization are still firmly in Chen Fei's hands. The communication team that is in full online communication is also very tight-lipped and has not added fuel to the fire to cause a bigger sensation.
There is no doubt that the news of superconducting crystals was leaked from the Persian Sovereign Investigation Team, so the responsibility is being investigated. The entire investigation team is being investigated to see which daring guy dared to reveal such an important secret.
In order to clean up this mess and prevent it from getting out of control, the Blue Star Global Joint Defense Committee sent in experts who were good at business operations to operate the black market transactions and recover as many lost crystals as possible. They not only deliberately suppressed the prices of extremely dangerous nuclear reaction crystals, but also proactively released a considerable number of fakes.
On one hand, they secretly purchased genuine goods, and on the other hand, they secretly sold fake goods. This in and out finally stabilized the situation.
As long as the Persian sovereign garrison is not strong enough, it is inevitable that the specialty crystals in the abnormal area will flow into the underground trading market in large quantities. After all, some things are better to be facilitated than blocked. The Blue Star Global Joint Defense Committee has no way to directly interfere in the sovereign's internal affairs, so it has to use this method to remedy the situation. However, many of the means used are amazing, and they are worthy of being professionals.
The three abnormal areas opened up by the parasitic species in some unknown way were really three good places. They were all areas where the first-class sovereignty of the Blue Star civilization could hardly intervene directly. If they appeared in the first-class sovereignty’s homeland, I’m afraid not even a wave would be caused. The garrison would embezzle, and the "gold diggers" and "adventurers" would take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Nothing would happen at all.
However, these three Feng Shui treasures came to the door for no reason, which made it difficult to guess the true intentions of the parasitic species.
After sending off the armed escort team of Louis Industries who came to extract the crystal samples, Chen Fei opened the AR visual interface again and began to pay attention to the mission progress of Emerald Star.
At the same time, various robots that can move freely in the special environment of "Giant Ao Star" without breathing equipment began comprehensive collection in the abnormal areas within the sovereignty of Persia. They tried their best to collect these specialty crystals before other uninvited guests frantically stole them, and sent them to the giant flying ship continuously.
Let's be clear, the giant flying ship is the biggest local tyrant around the abnormal area, and it is also the backstage of the largest black market. If anyone dares to disobey, a ton-class thermobaric bomb, a 600mm caliber anti-explosive bomb, a particle beam concentrated fire, or an elemental annihilation bomb will teach them a lesson and make them reincarnate. Only God knows whether they will be a human or an animal in the next life.
The first batch of minerals from Emerald Star has been produced, and even among Blue Stars, it is a top-notch high-quality rich ore.
Today, the artificial intelligence AI "Adam" has completed the AI replacement operations of various units, greatly increasing the execution efficiency of various tasks.
When connected, the efficiency of "Adam" and "Cybertrom" derivatives in performing fixed tasks is almost the same, but once the latter's derivative loses contact with the main body, its operating efficiency will be greatly reduced.
At present, mineral resources within a radius of 1 kilometers around Base No. 1000 have been discovered. In addition to open-pit or shallow mineral belts that are extremely easy to mine, there are even abundant reserves of high-quality coal. It is simply a place chosen by heaven for industrial civilization.
Emerald Star is rich in plant resources, which have been accumulated over countless millions of years, so it is not surprising that there is a large amount of coal. Moreover, the entire planet has never had an industrial civilization, and various resources have not been mined, so mineral veins can be seen almost everywhere.
Compared with the Emerald Planet, the resources on the surface of the Blue Planet can hardly support the next industrial civilization. If a future civilization like today's human civilization appears again, it will either have to go downwards (deep in the earth's crust) or upwards (in space) to obtain the resources needed to maintain the development of civilization.
In addition to the mineral problem, Base No. 1 on Emerald Star also faces energy problems. Once the reserve energy is exhausted, the entire base will come to a standstill. Fortunately, coal has been discovered now. Even if there is no coal, plants can be cut down as fuel. Although thermal power generation is not energy efficient, it is also a very economical energy source.
Even though the surrounding natural resources are abundant, we still cannot take it lightly. If the parasitic species drives the monster group to attack again, the battle will not only consume a large amount of reserve materials, but also consume the crystal energy that cannot be replenished in large quantities for the time being.
The atmospheric environment of Emerald Planet has completely deteriorated. Black and gray "dirty snow" falls from the sky from time to time. Nuclear winter has arrived, and all things are withering. Large planets with life are about to be strangled to death by nuclear weapons.
The planet's ecological environment has begun a chain-like, comprehensive collapse like a domino effect, which will not only cause the death of countless monsters and "nests", but even parasitic species will find it difficult to survive in such a harsh environment.
This is the advantage of the attacker. It is easy to destroy but difficult to build. It takes at least tens of thousands of years to deliberately cultivate such a life planet, but it only takes less than an hour to destroy it.
On Chen Fei's AR visual assistance interface, there is not only the mission interface of Emerald Star, but also interfaces from other places, such as the crystal jet research and development interface, the meat mushroom industry management interface, the Giant Ao Star resource collection interface, the independent laboratory interface... and so on. There are more than a dozen items in total. With his ability, he can only maintain a certain degree of attention and cannot perform multi-threaded parallel operations like AI.
So Chen Fei was responsible for setting the direction, and the artificial intelligence AI "Adam" was responsible for execution, and the two sides cooperated happily.
Adam: Found high-performance semiconductor crystals, with comprehensive performance 19% higher than silicon carbide and 21% higher than gallium nitride
"Record it in the file and compile the experimental report. Don't submit it for the time being."
However, Chen Fei was not as surprised as he was at the beginning. It was obvious that superconducting crystals and nuclear reaction crystals were more valuable.
Today is the era of integrated optical circuits and nitrogen-based circuits. Although silicon semiconductor integrated circuits have not been completely eliminated, their market share has become increasingly smaller than before, and they are even less popular in the research field. Researchers are naturally not as popular as those working on integrated optical circuits and nitrogen-based circuits.
Adam: Discovered a catalytic medium that homogeneously combines organic and inorganic matter.
Another special catalyst material has been discovered. It is crystalline and can release certain rays to promote the fusion of different materials at the molecular level. The key lies in its homogeneity, and its application areas are quite wide.
The independent laboratory located in the abnormal area does not study only one sample at a time, but conducts parallel experiments on five materials at the same time. Because of its location, it does not matter even if an experimental accident occurs and it is blown to pieces.
Now, the only one who studies the materials at the first time is Chen Fei's independent laboratory. The investigation team of Persian Sovereignty is directly defeated. The Blue Star Global Joint Defense Committee will not trust these guys who are not tight-lipped. It would rather let Chen Fei play alone than let these guys who can't keep their mouths shut touch the crystals.
