My Black Tech Shelter

While preparing for the warp engine research, Lu Chen also took the time to meet with officials from the Dragon Kingdom.

Dragon Kingdom officials are very interested in helium-3 collectors.

As for the technology to manufacture this kind of equipment, the government also has it, but it is not as advanced and efficient.

So a negotiation team came over and found Lu Chen ready to purchase a batch of equipment!

Yes, it’s just procurement. I don’t want to ask for technology.

In the past, most of Lu Chenhe’s official cooperation involved technology exchange or resource exchange.

Regarding Lu Chen's technology, the official did not want to use it for free.

I just negotiated with Lu Chen that some sensitive technologies cannot fall into the hands of outsiders even if they are not traded to the authorities.

Therefore, when current officials cooperate with Lu Chen, most of them still purchase finished products directly. This can not only obtain the required items for use, save production time, but also stimulate the circulation of funds.

After all, after Lu Chen got the money, he had to buy raw materials or purchase corresponding equipment from other sources.

Of course, he can make these himself, but he won't use all his own equipment.

After all, as a patriotic young man, he still needs to promote local economic development!

But this is also a disguised form of protection.

If these funds go into Lu Chen's pocket, and all the raw materials and equipment are collected and manufactured by himself, then the funds are just a string of numbers and cannot have any effect.

Such a giant will make officials wary.

Because a giant enterprise like yours, apart from paying taxes and providing jobs, cannot drive local economic development. It has the same nature as an ordinary company.

Moreover, Lu Chen’s company does not have front-line operators and does not provide many positions.

If the upstream and downstream industrial chains are not stimulated, then such giants can easily be put on the country's blacklist!

So after knowing the purpose of this group of people, Lu Chen was very happy and asked the leader to check the purchase contract and then signed his name!

This time the official also made a big deal, ordering more than 100,000 collectors in total.

Every hundred collectors are equipped with one helium-3 refining equipment.

Such a large order made Lu Chen very happy.

Although I am not interested in money now, I am still very happy to have money to transfer!

Therefore, the production line of this type of helium 3 collector has also been expanded accordingly.

After all, helium-3 is not only useful to the Dragon Kingdom, it is also very important to Lu Chen.

The extraction of deuterium is very simple. You only need to collect hydrogen elements from gaseous planets like Jupiter, and then put them in a heavy hydrogen extractor to refine them!

So for Lu Chen, the problem of raw materials for fusion reaction has been solved!

In the next few days, after Lu Chen was ready, he asked Fang Qing and other scientific researchers to restart the curvature engine laboratory and start research on the curvature engine!

On the other side, in the official Dragon Kingdom, the negotiation team returned to the moon with the first batch of 500 helium-3 collectors.

With the help of the Interstellar Army, the patrol team brought these 500 helium-3 collectors to the vicinity of Mercury.

Then expand it to a slightly farther orbit than Lu Chen's helium-3 collector!

When everything is unfolded, the five supporting helium-3 refining equipment are connected.

Finally, after waiting for a day, I sent someone up to check and found that there were already ten kilograms of liquid helium-3!

Official personnel are very satisfied with this efficiency.

Although ten kilograms is not enough for a day's consumption of fusion reactors across the country,

But this is only the output of 500 helium-3 collectors in one day.

You must know that the official purchased 100,000 helium-3 collectors.

After all the laying is completed, two tons of liquid helium-3 can be obtained every day, which is enough for the current Long Country's road-based fusion reactor!

After Longguo successfully completed the smooth operation of its second-generation fusion reactor, it began the layout of the energy industry.

Begin to gradually reduce the number of fission reaction nuclear power plants before the fourth generation, and mainly retain clean energy sources such as fourth-generation fast reactor nuclear power plants, wind energy power generation devices, and photovoltaic power generation panels.

Although photovoltaic panels generate very little electricity under today's lighting conditions,

But mosquitoes, no matter how small they are, are still meat, and they are just idle when they are idle. They might as well generate some electricity.

If the power quality is not good, just don’t connect it to the grid!

So after two months, officials had completed the construction of one hundred second-generation fusion reactors in Dragon Kingdom and successfully connected them to the grid to generate electricity!

At the same time, near Mercury, a transaction has been completed with Lu Chen, and all the helium-3 collectors have been obtained. The leaves began to gradually unfold to collect helium-3.

After calculation, the current scale of fusion reactors in Longguo requires that each fusion reactor consumes one kilogram of helium-3 per day, and 100 fusion reactors consume 100 kilograms per day.

Although it is a small proportion of the output of two tons per day,

But this is just the fusion reactor on Blue Star.

For the moon, Mars and other planets with immigration bases, fusion reactors have not yet been established.

Moreover, the cruiser's energy system will definitely need to be replaced in the later stage.

By the way, due to the success of the fusion reactor, the cruiser's offline date was postponed and directly postponed.

At the same time, due to the layout of the energy industry on Blue Star, the price of electricity has been further reduced, reaching 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, which has greatly promoted industrial production!

Looking back at Lu Chen,

After two months of research, with Zero's help, a warp engine experimental device has been completed!

This device can only perform curvature experiments and has no other functions.

In an open space in the open-air laboratory, a huge spacecraft is docked here.

There is a 150-megawatt fast reactor inside this spacecraft. This reactor alone occupies 60% of the space of the spacecraft.

Of the remaining 40%, 30% is equipped with the gravity matrix group, and the remaining 10% is various detection equipment and communication modules!

This spaceship is a purely experimental spacecraft.

So even though it is huge, it is just a target outside!

"Teacher, various data show that the energy system inside the spacecraft, as well as the power and curvature engine system are normal, and the experiment can begin!"

"Very good. After two months of hard work, we have finally reached this point. Let us witness this historic scene for mankind!

Fang Qing, let all departments get ready and start experiments! "

"Good teacher!"

Under the coordination of Fang Qing, various departments began to report the situation in turn.

After the data monitoring team, communication team, and remote observation team reported the situation in turn, Lu Chen started the experiment.

"Start the spacecraft engine, leave Mars first, and enter outer orbit!"

"Yes, start the ion engine, and the spacecraft will start deep space and fly smoothly!"

"Report, the spacecraft has left the Martian atmosphere and entered outer space!"

"Very good, adjust the direction and aim at the moon,"

"The flight attitude has been adjusted, and the navigation direction has been aimed at the moon,"

"Start the gravity matrix group and perform space gravity distortion!"

"Received, the gravitational matrix group has been activated and is strengthening the gravitational field and starting to distort the gravity of the space around the spacecraft!"

"Report, the gravitational distortion is completed and warp flight is possible!"

"Very good, let go of the surrounding gravity restrictions and start the curvature engine!"

"Yes, close the gravity limiter and start docking with the external gravity space, 3...2...1,

The docking was successful and the warp engine has been started,"

"Reporting news from the Mars Observation Team that the experimental spacecraft disappeared instantly and is difficult to capture!"

"Let the observation team on the moon side report the situation at any time,

Communications team, can we receive the information from the spacecraft? "

"Report to team leader, I can't receive it. The surrounding space is all distorted, and even quantum communication cannot be transmitted!"

Because they could not contact the spaceship for the time being, everyone could only wait patiently.

Time passes like this second by second. Time that used to feel very fast now seems to everyone like seconds are like years.

Half a minute later, good news came from the moon!

"Report to the Mars headquarters, I am the lunar observation point. I have re-observed the experimental spacecraft and confirmed that it has arrived at the moon. I am conducting spacecraft guidance and related inspections!"

After hearing the report from the moon, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone cheered after that!

Because everyone present knows that the curvature engine at this time is considered a success.

From the moon to Mars, the distance is more than 50 million kilometers, and the speed of light is only 300,000 kilometers per second.

So we reached the moon in less than half a minute, which means that the curvature flight speed this time is about ten times the speed of light.

It can be said that the original design requirements have been met.

"Teacher, we have succeeded!"

Fang Qing still felt like he was living in a dream, which was a bit unreal, so he confirmed with Lu Chen again!

"Hahaha, no matter what, we can already fly beyond the speed of light. This is the most important step, more important than many subsequent steps.

For us, this is ground zero! "

"Hahaha, we succeeded!"

Hearing Lu Chen's affirmation, Fang Qing cried with joy, he was so happy!

Looking at the cheering crowd, Lu Chen didn't stop him.

But they are all elites. After a short cheer, everyone knows that there are still many things that have not been completed.

For example, after this curvature flight, the shell state of the spacecraft, the energy consumption, and the specific speed exceeding the speed of light, etc., all require detailed calculations to obtain accurate values.

So this group of people also packed up their things in a hurry and prepared to go to the moon.

In the branch laboratory of the Nano Group there, all these data were calculated.

And just when Lu Chen and others were preparing to go to the moon,

The outside world is also in trouble.

Because this curvature flight was seen by other spacecraft near the moon and posted on the Internet,

Everyone was very surprised by the sudden appearance of the spaceship.

If it weren't for the experimental sign that Lu Chen had reported in advance, as soon as this spaceship appeared, it would have been hit by a laser cannon in less than ten seconds.

After the Lunar Defense Force reported the situation, Dragon Kingdom officials also had their car exploded. An emergency meeting was immediately convened to discuss the situation!
