Knocking wonders from the space station

338 The Orbital Elevator and the Gates of Hell

After the covenant was re-established, the mutual trust between the two parties was stronger than before, and Lao Bingluo was able to join the coveted Shentang Academy of Sciences, gain access to cutting-edge technology from humans, and share the knowledge in his mind.

The guests of honor enjoyed themselves.

What will follow will be an unprecedented and prosperous collision of inspirations, mutual learning and integration, which will be of great benefit to the scientific and technological progress of both parties. In terms of biomedicine, new materials, psychic technology, etc., Shentang will achieve qualitative take-off and future results.

Can be expected.

After solving the problems of the old popsicle and technological development, Lu Feng turned his attention back to natural disasters.

This natural disaster is indeed much more violent than the last time. If the foundation of Hell Gate was not strong enough, it would really be a mess.

After figuring out the frequency of meteorites hitting the colony, Lu Feng decisively turned off the Xuanwu Shield, allowing Yutu to conduct detailed debugging of this huge super shield system.

After three rounds, the shield system will be put into standing operation and can be activated at any time. Each activation time is 1 minute and 30 seconds.

However, due to the characteristics of the energy shield, it is inaccessible and inconvenient after it is turned on.

Lu Feng wondered whether a gate connected to the shield should be built at the edge of the colony to maintain the connection between the inside and outside of the shield...

Soon, he thought of the wonder being designed - an orbital elevator.

As Hell's Gate is an important and convenient source of resources, the base of the orbital elevator must be built inside the colony, which not only facilitates the transportation of resources and materials, but also can be protected by the strong firepower of the fortress.

However, the main body of the orbital elevator is obviously an entity. Once the shield is activated, the elevator track will be cut off immediately, which will be a complete mistake and disaster.

This is absolutely not possible.

In this case, can the elevator be designed to be telescopic?

The track of the orbital elevator that connects the sky and the earth does not rely on the rigidity of its own material to "stand up to the sky." In fact, the orbital elevator mainly relies on the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the planet and the "pendulum" on the synchronous orbit, making the track like a "cable"

"Tight and straight.

As long as the space station in orbit has the right height and counterweight, it can remain in orbit and use centrifugal force to offset the gravity of the 100,000-kilometer orbit to maintain the balance of the elevator.

Therefore, if you want to put away the orbital elevator, you can only find a way in space.

For example, designing a recovery device for the space station at the counterweight end of the track, which can retract the long elevator track made of carbon nanotubes like a fishing line.

Of course, the back and forth process must be very cumbersome and dangerous, so this will be an emergency mechanism in case of a crisis and will not be used normally.

The earth base end is more maneuverable.

The complete set of blueprints for Xuanwu Fortress includes the technology for building supporting portals. This technology can perfectly connect the artificial gates and barriers together and can exist for a long time.

After checking it out, Lu Feng decided to integrate this special shield gate into the base of the orbital elevator.

The envisioned elevator base will be built on the top of a flat-topped mountain in the south of the colony, which is exactly on the equator of the sky star, meeting the construction location requirements.

In addition to fixing the carbon nanocables hanging from space, the base will also build a huge ground airport for the transfer of materials and personnel.

The special thing is that this airport will be a huge column, and it can also be lifted!

Although it is not as grand as the Xuanwu Fortress, it is already an 800-meter-tall giant building and is fully worthy of being part of the spectacle.

Why build it so high?

Because the top of this airport will be higher than the height after the Xuanwu shield is deployed, and will stick out like a huge "chimney."

The diameter of the "chimney" will be very thick. Except for the central part, which will be connected with the carbon nanotubes to form the super base of the orbital elevator, the surrounding "chimney" will become the channel for the spacecraft to enter and exit.

Therefore, after the super airport is completed, it will take on the shape of a "fireplace". People inside the house enter through the bottom opening and then leave through the gate at the top, perfectly bypassing the shield.

However, in this case, security issues cannot be ignored.

When the shield was activated during the war, the enemy saw a big chimney standing outside from a distance. Now the fool knew where the breakthrough was.

Therefore, Lu Feng hopes that this building can be retracted.

For example, if it is designed as a giant pagoda structure, once a war breaks out, the airport will be folded layer by layer, lowering its height below the shield, closing the exit, and then extending it when needed.

Didn't the exiles who surrendered in the Continent of Ashes master the super-heavy suspension technology last time? Lu Feng felt that if the outer walls of the airport were made of lightweight alloy, it would be possible to achieve this telescopic and folding effect.

Moreover, my engineering team has just experienced the test of Xuanwu Fortress. Building such a "small" thing 800 meters high should not be a problem, right?

Well, there must be no problem!

Lu Feng was very confident in his men. On the other hand, the Shentang Academy of Sciences, which had just received the design specifications, was unsurprisingly defeated again...

After arranging the tasks, Lu Feng was quickly attracted by another question.

If I remember correctly...

This Xuanwu shield seems to be a very advanced one-way shield?

This is what was written on the blueprint!

So here’s the problem. According to the current protective performance of the shield, it doesn’t look like a one-way barrier that can hide inside and let people fire obscenely.

This is different from what the manual says. There must be something wrong somewhere.

So Lu Feng went to the Wonders Store to search again, and finally found a shiny "" at the bottom of the list of supporting facilities in [Wonderful Wonders - Gate of Hell].

"Hey, did you have this plus sign before?"

Lu Feng wondered if he was blind or had amnesia - this clearly appeared suddenly!

Click it and take a look.

Good guy, this fortress also has special supporting weapons. It is a land-based directed energy weapon that can penetrate the shield from the inside. It has various sizes and models, but it can only be installed on the special weapon slot of Xuanwu Fortress, and it is not the same as the shield.

The generator can fire after completing a certain synchronization.

It's powerful... Tsk, it's very powerful. It can be used as the main force of the defensive orbital fleet.

Perfect!

Lu Feng was about to laugh three times when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Um?

Why do I feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity?

Lu Feng hurriedly scrolled to the bottom of the description. Good guy, it actually said: Price, 1 Wonder Token!

Your uncle...

You're going to dismantle a wonder and sell it in three parts, right?

The routine is quite deep, and you know how to take the long term to catch the big fish?

I have finished building the wonders, but you tell me that this is a defective product and you need to invest more?

Lu Feng was so angry that the corners of his mouth twitched.

Wonder System, you are a real loser.

If I had known this thing was so expensive...hum, I would have saved up money to buy it!

The Gate of Hell smells so good~
