Cheng Chenwei's face was half-distorted from the pressure, but he still didn't dare to slow down for a second. He explained the whole story of how, after Li Ke disappeared after sneaking into the underwater base, the West decided to make the best of a mistake, trade with China, and then blow up the mine to cause trouble.
Li Ke asked coldly, "Why do you know so much about these things? And what role did you play in all of this?"
Cheng Chenwei quickly said, "I am a neutral party. Their struggles have nothing to do with me. Everything I do is for research. However, I will cooperate with both sides. In return, I will know a lot about them, but I will never get involved."
"What kind of cooperation?" Li Ke then asked.
Cheng Chenwei braced himself against the wall with one hand, indicating that he was in pain. Li Ke loosened his grip, and Cheng Chenwei finally caught his breath and continued, "There are all kinds of collaborations. I will provide them with some technical cooperation, and they will provide me with important supplies and weapons. Similarly, we will also frequently conduct technical exchanges. Don't be fooled by the fact that everyone seems to be fighting to the death on the surface; in important scientific and technological research and development, sometimes cooperation is still necessary."
Moreover, in the period immediately following the outbreak of the turmoil, I also raised a group of mercenaries in order to maintain stability. During that time, it was impossible to calm down and do research, so I could only plunder supplies and do business.
Then, in the process of doing business, you will get a lot of information, and that's when you start to understand yourself. You may not know this, but for a long time, you were on the most wanted list. Of course, you are still on it now.
Many people, including myself, wanted to catch you and make a fortune, but unfortunately, we couldn't find a single trace of you. Your skill at hiding and playing hide-and-seek is too amazing.
After listening quietly, Li Ke said, "Take me to see your solar energy mine."
Cheng Chenwei was taken aback for a moment before asking, "How did you know I had solar energy mines here?"
Seeing that Li Ke did not intend to answer, he did not dare to ask any more questions and could only lead his men to the location of the solar energy mine.
This solar energy mine is indeed quite large, nearly one cubic meter in size, and is encased in a huge, thick black crystal, forming an even larger cube.
Even Li Ke, who had been mining solar energy for a long time, couldn't help but be shocked. The reason was that she had been digging underground for so long, and the largest piece she had ever dug was only about half the size of her fist. This was still extremely rare. She didn't know if all the pieces she had dug could compare to this one in front of her.
The spatial awareness was so excited that Li Ke swatted it away and ignored it.
Cheng Chenwei looked at Li Ke, who was still standing in front of the black crystal mine in a daze without any protection, and her mind became excited again. Has this woman's body reached a level where it is unaffected by anything?
Cheng Chenwei was wearing a protective suit, and now she was also wearing three layers of goggles. A light energy mineral the size of a fingernail was wrapped in a large black crystal box, which humans could perhaps observe at their leisure.
However, if no protection is taken, the harm that this will cause to the human body is incalculable.
The place where they were standing was actually nearly ten meters away from the solar energy mine. This ten-meter space was completely empty. The outermost layer was a special energy receiver that could convert the energy emitted by the solar energy mine into the power needed for their research. In addition, it could also provide electricity to the entire island, but Cheng Chenwei did not do so.
There are so many people on the island; they need to work hard to make a living and then exchange it with him on an equal footing.
Cheng Chenwei: "You've never seen such a large solar energy mine, have you? Actually, this isn't even the largest. The largest ones are all in the hands of Westerners. I got this one through a trade using groundbreaking technology. You know, the mining robots they're using now were developed by me and them. My team was responsible for the key technological breakthroughs, which is why we were able to get such a large solar energy mine as payment."
Li Ke didn't play along with Cheng Chenwei's boasting and instead asked, "Is your research institute a sphere? Is it mobile? Is it actually a super-large mobile research institute?"
Cheng Chenwei wasn't too surprised that Li Ke would discover this problem. He had already shown Li Ke almost the entire place, so it was normal for him to have this guess.
Cheng Chenwei: "That's right. Before this solar energy mineral was added, it could only be considered a semi-finished product. But now, it's a complete entity with a soul. It can float not only on land and sea, but also in the air. The only shortcoming is that its weaponry is somewhat lacking."
There's nothing we can do about it. I can't get the best parts by trading them, and even if I wanted to make them myself, the crucial materials would be a problem…
Cheng Chenwei was still muttering to herself when Li Ke said directly, "I want you to take me to the largest solar energy mine area."
Cheng Chenwei paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "What do you want to do? Don't do anything reckless. If something goes wrong there, the whole world will be destroyed. Besides, the naval battle is over, and the two sides are discussing cooperation. China is also in dire need of solar energy resources right now."
Upon seeing Li Ke's disdainful look, and recalling the miracles that had occurred to Li Ke, Cheng Chenwei suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "You want to steal the solar energy mine?"
Seeing that Li Ke remained silent, Cheng Chenwei tentatively made a request: "Then I'll take you there, but could you give me a vial of blood and a small piece of tissue?"
Li Ke sneered: "At most, I might consider letting you die a few days later."
Cheng Chenwei always presented himself as a fanatical technologist, and he truly was, but he was also a ruthless researcher.
