I have a space station

“This won't work here; it can only be done in a location very close to the star.”

“How do we do it?” Dongfang Chen asked excitedly.

It's good to have a solution.

“Using carbon-silicon as the backbone element, weave together light-absorbing crystal tubes with hexagonal cross-sections according to a certain pattern. Then, arrange these crystal tubes to form a miniature light-absorbing crystal lattice. Join these lattices together, and you can form a light crystal panel. A large number of light crystal panels joined together can form a light-absorbing surface, and the absorbed light is conducted to the vibrating crystal to achieve charging,” Mengka explained.

It sounds simple, but it's quite troublesome to do.

To mass-produce this kind of light-absorbing crystal tube, you need material production technology at the molecular level.

However, Dongfang Chen has already mastered this.

The important thing is the technical solution. How these molecules are arranged, how they are joined, how they are assembled, and how they are conducted – that's the main thing.

The way vibrating crystals are charged is completely different from batteries.

To charge a battery, you need to first convert light energy into electrical energy.

But vibrating crystals don't need that; they can directly absorb light energy.

So, you just need to conduct the absorbed light to the vibrating crystal.

“Is there a technical solution?” Dongfang Chen asked.

“Yes, there is,” Mengka replied.

“But to put it into practical use, you need a relatively large number of vibrating crystals,” Mengka added.

“How many are needed?” Dongfang Chen swallowed.

“Each charging unit needs to have a vibrating crystal installed. Even if a charging station is set up near the sun's orbit, it will still take about 30 days for a single vibrating crystal to be fully charged. Of course, there's also the time for transfer and transportation in between. So, if you want to achieve a continuous supply of vibrating crystal energy, you'll need at least 1000 to keep the cycle going,” Mengka explained.

“1000? Is that a lot?” Dongfang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought it would be much more. 1000 is nothing.

“You have quite the nerve! Do you know what 1000 means? At the height of the Dragon Kingdom's power 1 billion years ago, the total reserves were only 1 million. This secret base of ours is a key project, and we were only allocated 10. So, every time I need to replace the energy source, I have to fly the ship back to the Mars base,” Mengka said disdainfully.

“Was the Dragon Kingdom that poor back then?” Dongfang Chen muttered.

“……” Mengka glared at him.

“You're not poor, are you? Then tell me, how many do you have? One or two?” Mengka retorted.

“Not many, just 10,000, and another 20,000 will be coming in soon,” Dongfang Chen deliberately pretended to be nonchalant.

“What!?” Mengka was shocked.

“Don't be so surprised; don't act like you've never seen the world!” Dongfang Chen successfully showed off.

“How can there be so many?” Mengka didn't believe it.

“That's why I said you haven't seen the world!” Dongfang Chen laughed.

“Is it the Laventa people? Did they give them to you?” Mengka asked.

Dongfang Chen had just said that he insisted on helping them build an underground base because he wanted to earn vibrating crystals from them.

“It's not giving, it's exchanging! They provide vibrating crystals, and I provide equipment and technology,” Dongfang Chen corrected.

“With the Nata people's technology, is it worth this many vibrating crystals? You're obviously swindling them,” Mengka said unconvinced.

“Say whatever you want; whatever makes you happy,” Dongfang Chen said indifferently.

“No, you have to find a way to swindle all these vibrating crystals over! It's too dangerous for them to be in their hands!” Mengka suddenly made a 180-degree turn.

“Don't worry; there won't be a problem in the short term. At least for now, space is still completely our territory. Even if they have vibrating crystals, they're useless,” Dongfang Chen replied.

The Muni people are like rats in a hole now. They can cause damage, but would they dare to build a charging station on the sun? It would be occupied in minutes.

“In short, this matter needs to be watched closely. Don't let it fall into the enemy's hands,” Mengka said.

“Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. By the way, not only the Maya people, but I suspect the Ok Huns also have vibrating crystals,” Dongfang Chen added.

“Those underwater miners have them too?”

“That's right; the first vibrating crystal I got was sent by them,” Dongfang Chen nodded.

“How can there be so many vibrating crystals on Blue Star? Why didn't we discover them before?” Mengka muttered to himself.

“Maybe you didn't explore well enough?” Dongfang Chen said.

“How is that possible? To find vibrating crystals, the Dragon Kingdom even explored Pluto,” Mengka said.

“Is that so? Maybe they didn't detect them; who knows,” Dongfang Chen said.

Just like exploring for oil fields, there's a lot of luck involved in this kind of thing.

“Maybe!” Mengka stopped dwelling on the issue.

“Give me the technical data first; I'll see if I can build the charging station.”

“Okay, I've sent it to you,” Mengka said.

Since Mengka's mission is to revive human civilization, he naturally preserves the highest technological achievements of humanity at that time.
