Five kilometers south of Gorob Village, there was a reef coast. It was only a few kilometers away from Namibia's famous Sandwich Bay.
Sandwich Bay was one of Namibia's most famous scenic spots. The desert here was connected to the sea. Tourists could see the legendary magnificent scenery of sand flowing into the sea.
Therefore, when Chen Chen rented the fifty thousand hectares of land, he included a portion of Sandwich Bay for the future development of the sanatorium.
However, outside of Sandwich Bay, it was still a common reef coast.
At this time, on the rough Atlantic coast, several speedboats were constantly patrolling the shore, careful not to bump into the reefs and scratch the hull.
On the speedboat, several mercenaries in diving suits and diving gear dove into the water, searching for something along the coast.
This situation had been going on for three days.
However, at this time, a larger yacht came from afar.
The past few days felt like years. No one asked Hanamal for his opinion. After being forcibly brought to Namibia, Hanamal only had time to have a meal before he was dragged to this strange yet familiar sea.
When he saw the reef coast, Hanamal's eyes were filled with nostalgia.
It was as if he had returned to thirty years ago, back to the carefree days of his childhood.
Unfortunately, this trance was quickly interrupted by a Chinese man with gold-rimmed glasses and slicked-back oily hair.
At this time, Qian Wenhuan was holding the map in his hand, matching it with the scenery in front of him. "Hanamal, is this the place?"
"Sorry, it's been so many years. I can only remember a general location. Anyway, it's definitely this coastline. We'll find it sooner or later," Hanamal explained carefully.
Qian Wenhuan could not help but smile bitterly. "Brother, you're not messing with me, are you? You don't even know how deep the cavern is? Do you have any reference points? "
"I didn't discover the cavern. It was discovered by a child around the age of eight or nine. He only invited me to visit..." Hanamal explained in a small voice.
Qian Wenhuan rolled his eyes, then pointed to the assistant behind him. "Give Mr. Hanamal a diving suit."
"No, I won't be able to find it even if I go into the water..."
Hanamal's expression changed. He quickly waved his hand. "Besides, it's been so many years. I've forgotten how to swim."
"Mr. Hanamal, please don't belittle yourself. Sometimes, human memory is cheap. Don't think that you can't remember anything now. Maybe when you get into the water — huh? What if he remembers it now? "
Qian Wenhuan waved his hand. "It's not that we don't believe you. We just want to broaden our horizons!"
As he spoke, he shoved the diving suit into Hanamal's arms.
Hanamal pulled a long face. He looked at the speedboats around him and the people going in and out of the water. He reluctantly put on his diving suit.
…
In the evening, when Chen Chen had just left the laboratory, Qian Wenhuan suddenly called.
"Boss, I found it!"
Qian Wenhuan's voice came through the phone, brimming with excitement. "Our men couldn't find it for three days. When Hanamal got into the water, he remembered the location of the cave. It turned out that the cave had been sealed up by seaweed and mud!"
"Good job." Chen Chen complimented. "Can we go in and explore?"
"Not at the moment. We've measured the entrance. It's about fifty centimeters wide from the outside but the deeper you go, the smaller it gets. The narrowest part is only about thirty centimeters. I'm guessing that only an eight or nine year old child with a skinny frame can go in and out."
"Got it. Let's head back first."
Chen Chen thought for a moment. "Get the underwater tools ready tonight. It won't be too late to explore after the tools are shipped over tomorrow."
"Understood." Qian Wenhuan agreed.
After hanging up, Chen Chen went straight to the main power control room of the research center.
The main power control room was located on the basement floor of the laboratory building. All of the power in the research center had to pass through here first before being distributed to each laboratory.
Due to certain reasons, Chen Chen had made the main power control room sturdier than a bank. The door was reinforced with metal that was half a meter thick. It was equipped with the world's top biological verification device and Little X's personal supervision.
Unless the research center was taken over by force, no one other than Chen Chen could access the main power control room.
At this time, Chen Chen walked to the door of the main power control room and placed his hand on the verification device to verify his palm print. He also verified the iris before opening the door.
When he walked into the main control room, Chen Chen looked at the USB drive plugged into a special panel and sighed.
During this period, Chen Chen had not only relied on photovoltaic equipment to generate electricity but also reached an agreement with the nearby Walvis Bay power plant to build a transmission channel. All of the electricity that the Walvis Bay power plant could not use would be sent here and absorbed by the USB drive.
Even so, the efficiency was still too low. It was far from comparable to the electricity obtained in Cape Town over the past five days.
The power plant in Walvis Bay was only a small 100,000 kilowatt generator unit. It was already struggling to make ends meet for this small city of 100,000 people, let alone Chen Chen's side.
The photovoltaic generator unit built by Chen Chen could generate 6 kilowatts of electricity per hour. Based on a thousand pieces, its power was only the same as a 6,000 kilowatt micro-power station.
In addition, the average length of sunshine was only 12 hours per day. The electricity generated for the whole day was halved. There was no excess electricity for the USB drive to absorb.
Therefore, over the past few months, the USB drive had only absorbed a million or so kilowatt hours of electricity piecemeal, which was roughly enough for Chen Chen to extract one kilogram of materials.
Looking at the USB drive that did not move, Chen Chen could not help but shake his head.
If the USB drive had this much electricity when he first obtained it, Chen Chen would not have to go through so much trouble. He could just eat NZT-48 as if it were candy. The same went for the immunity shot.
However, for the current him, this amount of energy was somewhat pitifully small.
Now, Chen Chen could only wait for the construction of the nuclear power plant to be completed. Only then could he preliminarily extract what he wanted.
Yes, it was only the preliminary stage.
After all, it should be noted that a 2 million kilowatt nuclear power plant could only provide 40 million kilowatt hours of electricity for the USB drive every day. This was under the condition that the electricity was not transmitted to the user.
According to the conversion formula, 40 million kilowatt hours of electricity a day could extract about 30 kilograms of materials. In a year, it could only extract 11,000 kilograms, which was 11 tons.
In reality, it was impossible for Chen Chen to consume all of the electricity. He still needed to supply two-thirds of the electricity to Namibia. Therefore, the actual efficiency had to be divided by three, which was less than 3.7 tons.
Based on the volume of the crystal in Chronicle and the density of an ordinary crystal of 2.66 g/cm3, the approximate weight was 9.31 to 10.7 tons. This meant that Chen Chen would need more than two and a half years just to extract the crystalline.
Just one piece of crystal alone would take Chen Chen three years, not to mention the various high-tech devices and the massive interstellar warship that Chen Chen was looking forward to.
Therefore, to Chen Chen, the construction of the nuclear power plant was only the preliminary stage of charging the USB drive.
In the future, Chen Chen would need to find a more effective way to charge it...
