After investing one hundred second-level mechanical crystals, Chen Wangping chose production technology and clicked on upgrade.
[Congratulations on successfully upgrading your intermediate production technology]
You have unlocked the [Standard Concrete] blueprint, [Processor] blueprint, [Centrifuge] blueprint, and [Solid Fuel blueprint]
Looking at the four drawings that appeared in front of him, Chen Wangping first clicked on the centrifuge drawing to check it out.
【Centrifuge】
[Purpose: Separating uranium ore into uranium 235 and uranium 238]
Materials: Standard Concrete x 100, Steel x 150, Integrated Circuit Board x 50
[Note: The centrifuge occupies a large area]
"No wonder they released blueprints for standard concrete this time. It turns out this is what they're going to use to build the centrifuge."
Chen Wangping also knew that standard concrete could effectively isolate nuclear radiation and was most suitable for building centrifuges.
He clicked on the standard concrete drawing and looked at it:
【Standard concrete】
【Use: Sturdy building material】
Materials: Steel x 1, Stone x 5
[Note: A must-have for producing nuclear energy-related buildings]
Chen Wangping first walked to the manufacturing table and arranged the task of making standard concrete, then took out the processor drawing to check it.
The initial circuit board drawing is green, the integrated circuit board at the back is red, and when it comes to the processor, the drawing has turned blue, which looks very technological.
With the processor, the exoskeleton module and discharge defense module that had been stuck and unable to be manufactured before can now be built.
【processor】
【Purpose: The most advanced control processor】
Materials: [Integrated Circuit Board] x 5, [Sulfuric Acid] x 3
[Note: Processor building is very resource-intensive]
After reading the properties, Chen Wangping frowned. Just as the notes said, it takes a lot of energy to make this thing, including plastic and sulfuric acid.
Let’s build a few and make some modules first.
In fact, what he values most about modular armor is its replicability. When he reaches the central region, he will definitely arm his own forces.
If one could equip all three modules of the modular armor, and combine it with a second-level psychic with sufficient physical strength, then the combat power would be close to that of a fourth-level psychic.
By consuming resources, you can increase your combat effectiveness in a short period of time.
As for resources, the central region will have them.
After arranging the tasks one by one, Chen Wangping took out the last solid fuel blueprint and looked at it:
【Solid fuel (chemical formula)】
[Building method: Chemical plant]
【Use: Fuel that can provide more energy】
Materials: [LPG] x 10 / [Light Oil] x 15 / [Heavy Oil] x 20
[Note: Solid fuel has more than three times the energy of coal]
After seeing the chemical formula, Chen Wangping felt helpless. It seemed that he had to build more chemical plants.
Today's chemical plants already use up a lot of production capacity just to produce plastics and sulfur.
"We'll be busy once we get to the central region."
Chen Wangping quickly made arrangements and sent some shots out to see the situation.
After finishing his work, he felt a little tired and lay down on the bed to rest.
It was still dark outside and the weather was very bad. He had asked Tang Xihe about this when they were chatting earlier. This kind of weather would always appear before it snowed, and winter was about to come.
I have to hurry up too.
After resting enough, he continued to visualize the standard artillery shells.
Five hours later.
The things in the new drawings have been built one after another.
Chen Wangping couldn't wait to take out the centrifuge, ran outside the base, and carefully placed it on the ground.
He had previously specially pulled an electrical circuit using telephone poles, away from the base, and surrounded it with standard concrete to prevent leakage to the greatest extent possible.
The centrifuge placed on the ground occupies a large area, comparable to four or five chemical plants. It has nothing special in properties and its functions are relatively simple.
This is good too, the simpler it is, the more stable it is.
After connecting the circuit, Chen Wangping took out the uranium ore and threw it into the feed port.
Uranium Ore (1/5)
Just like smelting iron ore, five pieces of uranium ore are required to start working.
After figuring out the proportions, he thought about it and arranged a robotic arm specifically for placing uranium ore.
This thing is of great importance and cannot be transported using this exposed conveyor belt for the time being. It will be very troublesome if it is hit by something along the way.
When it comes to things like uranium ore, caution is the most important thing.
After five pieces of uranium ore were put in, the centrifuge started to work hummingly.
Its working principle is actually very simple.
Uranium ore contains 99.3% uranium 238 and 0.07% uranium 235. Uranium 235 is an important material for making nuclear weapons and nuclear fuel.
The centrifuge uses the difference in mass between the two to separate them through centrifugal rotation.
Half an hour later, the centrifuge slowly stopped and the light green fluorescent substance in the container slid out of the two discharge ports.
Chen Wangping counted them and found that there were a total of 8 uranium-238 and 1 uranium-235.
The output ratio is quite disparate.
Chen Wangping carefully put away the [Uranium 235] and waited to get the corresponding drawings before making it carefully.
He placed the [Uranium 238] on the manufacturing table along with the standard shells, and looked forward to selecting the depleted uranium shells to build.
[Depleted uranium shells are being made, estimated to take one hour]
"Depleted uranium shells are likely to be even more difficult."
He stood by and watched curiously, ready to see how big the difference in difficulty was.
