He knew that effectively trapping heat within the base required robust and well-designed defenses. Xiao Yi replayed every possible scenario in his mind. He understood that the cold outside and potential threats constantly threatened the base's precious warmth and resources. A strong wall was not only a barrier against external enemies but also the first line of defense to maintain a stable internal temperature. It must be constructed of materials that could withstand both extreme cold and strong impacts. Every brick and stone must be tightly connected, without any gaps, preventing any cold air from seeping in. Well-designed gates must ensure the smooth passage of personnel and supplies while also closing tightly and featuring robust seals to prevent heat loss. The placement of defense towers was crucial, placed in strategic corners of the base to provide comprehensive surveillance. The towers' height and field of view must be precisely calculated to ensure no blind spots. Furthermore, the towers must be sturdy enough to withstand attacks and inclement weather. Ventilation systems were also crucial, ensuring adequate air circulation while preventing heat from escaping. Complex piping and filtration systems need to be carefully designed and installed to ensure that heat loss is minimized while maintaining air quality. Furthermore, the roof of the base also requires special protection. This could be a thick layer of insulation or a smart coating that can regulate temperature to combat the cold intrusion from above. Xiao Yi is well aware that every detail is crucial to the effectiveness of the entire defense facility. Any omission in any link could lead to heat loss, threatening the survival and development of the people within the base.
"We need to build a multi-layered barrier to block the cold outside while retaining heat within," Xiao Yi said to the engineers around him. His voice was steady and powerful, echoing throughout the empty space. He fixed his gaze firmly on the engineers gathered around him, his expression serious and focused. "First, the outermost layer must be a tall, thick isolation wall. This wall must be constructed with high-strength thermal insulation materials, like a thick cotton-padded jacket for the base, shielding it from the raging cold winds outside." He gestured in the air, indicating the wall's height and thickness. "Behind the isolation wall, we need a special insulation net. This net must utilize the latest nanotechnology materials to reflect and absorb cold air currents, further reducing heat loss." Xiao Yi's eyes revealed his anticipation and trust in the new technology. "Next, a layer of intelligently controlled ventilation membrane. It automatically adjusts ventilation based on the temperature and humidity differences inside and outside, ensuring that the air remains fresh while preventing heat from escaping easily." He pointed to the base's vents, as if the device he described was already installed there. "Further inside, we'll install a series of heat exchangers. These will recycle excess heat generated internally, improving energy efficiency while also providing additional thermal support for the protective barrier." Xiao Yi's speech quickened, his thoughts becoming increasingly active. "Finally, we'll apply a highly effective thermal insulation coating to the interior of the base. This coating will not only prevent heat from escaping but also provide fire and moisture resistance, providing multiple safeguards for the base's safety and warmth." The engineers listened intently to Xiao Yi's explanation, nodding frequently and quickly jotting down key points. Inspired by his passion and professionalism, they too felt a burning resolve to build an impenetrable protective barrier for the base.
A cold sweat drenched her back, and the hand gripping the gun began to tremble slightly. Beads of sweat, the size of beans, formed into streams that streamed down her cheeks and neck, soon soaking her entire back. The icy sweat clung to her back, sending a piercing chill through her bones, as if countless cold insects were crawling across it. Her grip on the gun lost its stability and began to shake uncontrollably. The trembling was slight at first, but grew more pronounced as her fear intensified. Her knuckles turned white from the strain, but she couldn't stop the trembling. The gun in her hand felt like a heavy, unruly object, poised to fall at any moment. Anfei tried to calm herself, biting her lip hard, hoping the pain would distract her and control the trembling. But the fear, like a surging tide, overwhelmed her sanity, wave after wave, rendering her efforts futile. She could feel her breathing becoming rapid and disordered. Every breath she took felt like she was swallowing fear, and every breath she exhaled was filled with deep despair. Her trembling hands seemed to be an outward manifestation of her inner fear, mercilessly revealing her extreme helplessness and vulnerability in the face of this huge python.
To implement the defense project, a vast array of specialized materials were placed on the procurement list. The densely packed lists, filled with countless names of these materials, resembled tomes, carrying the hopes and heavy responsibilities of the defense project. From high-strength alloys hard enough to withstand immense impacts to fabrics with advanced protective properties that provide crucial protection in critical moments; from novel composite materials capable of absorbing and dissipating energy to self-healing smart materials, each one was essential. These specialized materials weren't readily available on the market; they required meticulous selection and procurement from specialized suppliers around the world. Some were mined from rare minerals deep in the mountains, requiring extremely difficult extraction; others were the latest developments from high-tech laboratories, yet to enter large-scale production. To ensure the smooth progress of the defense project, the procurement team worked day and night, engaging in rounds of negotiations with suppliers to secure the highest quality materials at the best price. Every discussion and every decision hinged on the success of the defense project. Transporting these specialized materials also proved a daunting task. Huge shipping containers, specialized transport vehicles, and rigorous security measures were deployed to ensure the safe and timely arrival of these precious materials at the construction site. Behind this procurement list lies the hard work and anticipation of countless individuals. Each specialized material is a cornerstone of the defense project, waiting to be meticulously constructed and fully utilized.
