.
Shi Lei was forced to share the N235 metal with Rongcheng Military District.
However, in the limited sharing, Shi Lei hid a lot of information.
Including the actual name of the N235 metal!
In the shared information, Shi Lei changed the name of the N235 metal to the Thunderbolt Rough Stone.
Also, in order to limit the energy output of the N235 metal, Shi Lei used a special method to dissolve the N235 metal in a special electrolyte, which reduced the total energy output of the N235 metal per unit of time.
Shi Lei not only removed the instantaneous energy output of the N235 metal, but also mastered the method of dissolving the N235 metal into the electrolyte.
Therefore, even if Rongcheng Military District obtained the N235 metal, they had no choice but to cooperate with Shi Lei because they did not know how to use it.
This was a protective talisman that Shi Lei had built for himself!
However, even if Shi Lei and Rongcheng Military District had a cooperative relationship and an alliance of interests, if there was a chance for Shi Lei to independently obtain more N235 metal, he would not hesitate. His table manners would be very ugly.
"Captain Mu Liang, give the order to put away the submarine. I have almost all the data that we need!"
Shi Lei pulled out the public-to-public USB cable that connected the integrated console to the laptop.
They had obtained enough information from the HL submarine. Next, they needed Izur to perform calculations and analysis to obtain the results.
"Okay, Major Shek.
Do we still need to do any probing today? "Qian Muliang asked. If there was any probing work that needed to be done, he would be able to arrange it.
Working at night required more preparation to avoid any unexpected situations.
Shi Lei shook his head. "No need!
We'll talk about it tomorrow!
Oh right, Commander Shi, come with me! "
Shi An nodded. "Okay."
Shi Lei brought Shi An back to the cabin and put down the laptop. Then, he brought Shi An to the deck.
The two of them went to the bow of the ship together.
Don't get me wrong, the two of them definitely did not intend to imitate the classic movements of the Titanic. Shi Lei was definitely not a good comrade, and Shi An could not possibly be gay. He had just slept with a blonde western girl!
The two of them stood at the bow of the ship. Shi An asked anxiously, "Shi Lei, have you confirmed the situation?"
"Yes!"
Shi Lei nodded affirmatively. The reason why they chose to talk at the bow instead of in the cabin was to prevent any eavesdropping devices in the cabin.
Although it was unlikely for the Guqin City Naval Base to eavesdrop on the secrets of Rongcheng Military District, what if something unexpected happened?
Shi An suppressed his excitement. If the matter of the thunderbolt source stone was confirmed, Shi An would most likely obtain a great merit and then advance a step further!
"Shi Lei, can we get a sample?"
Even though Shi Lei was very excited, he did not say anything about the Thunderbolt Origin Stone. He did an excellent job of keeping it a secret.
Shi Lei frowned. "I don't know!"
"Eh?
No way? "Shi An was a little depressed." Shi Lei, you really don't know? "
Shi Lei nodded. In fact, Shi Lei really did not know. Before the specific analysis of Izur came out, Shi Lei did not know too much about the situation. The only thing he could be sure of was that the N235 metal did exist, and the storage quantity exceeded that of Meishan Island.
"Shi Lei, think of a way. It's best if we can get a sample.
Otherwise, it will be hard to explain! "Shi An looked at Shi Lei hopefully for his own advancement.
Shi Lei, of course, also wanted to get a sample of the N235 metal. If Rongcheng Military District had the N235 metal, his cooperation with Rongcheng Military District would only go further.
To put it bluntly, it was actually a deeper relationship of interest between the two sides, and the scope of cooperation would be wider.
Shi Lei's safety would also be more secure. Rongcheng Military District would not easily abandon him. At least before they obtained enough benefits, Rongcheng Military District would protect Shi Lei well!
"Commander Shi, I can only give you the answers to these questions tomorrow!"
Shi Lei said firmly. "Oh right, Commander Shi, you should inform Rongcheng Military District first and ask Rongcheng Military District to arrange a large ship that belongs to Rongcheng Military District.
We have already found the Thunderbolt Origin Stone. Rongcheng Military District should have no more concerns, right? "
Rongcheng Military District had established an ocean exploration company in the Bermuda Triangle area. They did not have large ships that could sail across the ocean.
This was because they were not sure whether the N235 metal existed, and Rongcheng Military District was not willing to invest.
Now that they had confirmed the existence of the N235 metal, how could Rongcheng Military District not be willing to invest?
If Rongcheng Military District did not have their own ocean-going ships, it would be very, very inconvenient for them to mine the N235 metal.
They could not possibly ask Guqin City Naval Base's ships to help transport it, right?
After all, in the long run, Guqin City Naval Base would definitely discover the problem with the N235 metal. Once Guqin City Naval Base intervened, regardless of whether it was Shi Lei or Rongcheng Military District, they would definitely not be happy!
Bermuda local time, July 16th, a few minutes past 10 pm.
Shi Lei was in the cabin, communicating with Izur. Shi Lei wore a wireless headset and used lip-reading to communicate silently with Izur through the webcam.
On the laptop screen was a map of the location of the N235 metal. This map was not a flat map, but a three-dimensional map that included the depth of the ocean.
'Izur, there are a total of two N235 metal veins?'
Shi Lei asked. Although there were three locations where the N235 metal waves were found, Shi Lei did not expect there to be three veins.
Because the range of the veins was very wide, it was normal to have multiple waves.
After all, a similar situation had occurred on Meishan Island.
Izur's cold and ruthless voice came from the Bluetooth headset. "Yes, sir.
The system passively received the N235 metal waves through the HL submarine. After analysis, the location of the two veins was calculated.
The location of the veins has been marked on the map, please check. "
On the three-dimensional map, there was a flashing red dot. No!
There should be two red dots of light, but the two red dots of light had almost overlapped.
Shi Lei moved the mouse and changed the three-dimensional map from a 90-degree overlooking angle to a 45-degree squint angle.
After changing the angle, the two red dots suddenly separated.
One of the light spots was located between 3,900 and 4,200 meters below sea level. Due to the equipment of the HL submarine, the accuracy was not enough. The N235 metal wave information that was passively received was unable to accurately calculate the specific depth.
However, it was not impossible to calculate the exact location. If the HL submarine dived down, it would naturally be possible!
The second dot was located at 6,500 meters out of a 6,000-meter scale. The range of error was larger and the depth was deeper.
According to the design depth of the HL submarine, it might not be able to go down.
Looking at the two numbers, Shi Lei felt a little strange. Why were there two veins at different depths in almost the same location?
Could it be that the first vein was floating in the sea?
However, Shi Lei immediately understood that it was not the first N235 metal vein that was floating in the sea, but the locations of the two N235 metal veins at the edge of the Puerto Rican Trench.
The first N235 metal vein was at the edge of the trench, and the second one had really fallen into the trench.
‘shit！’
After thinking it through, Shi Lei cursed in his heart. The second N235 metal vein that fell into the trench was more than 6,000 meters deep. It would be very difficult to mine in a short period of time!
"Izur, is the data accurate?" Shi Lei asked unwillingly.
Although Izur did not simulate any human emotions in the wireless earpiece, his cold voice was certain. "Sir, according to the detection information and logical analysis data, the probability of error is less than 0.4%."
Shi Lei sighed. Although he had already guessed the result, Shi Lei was still very unwilling to accept it.
When he had found out that there were two N235 metal veins, Shi Lei had instantly thought of a secret mining plan.
But in this situation, how could he mine the second N235 metal vein?
He could not report the location of the second N235 metal vein in the Puerto Rican Trench to Rongcheng Military District, and then secretly mine the first N235 metal vein on the cliff of the trench, right?
If that was the case, even if Rongcheng Military District could not mine the N235 metal vein in the Puerto Rican Trench, they would definitely stay here and continuously test the maximum depth of the submarine in order to overcome the maximum depth in the shortest time possible and mine the N235 metal vein in the depths of the Puerto Rican Trench.
Logically speaking, this should have been a good result.
However, who knew if Rongcheng Military District would go crazy and dig randomly in the trench?
Or if they accidentally discovered the N235 metal vein in the trench?
According to Murphy's Law, it was better to be safe than sorry. If Rongcheng Military District really discovered the N235 metal vein in the trench, how would Shi Lei explain it to Rongcheng Military District?
After careful consideration, Shi Lei made a difficult decision, which was to hide the information about the second N235 metal vein, which was the vein that fell into the trench. He would temporarily hide it and only report the first vein to Rongcheng Military District.
Even if Rongcheng Military District accidentally discovered the second N235 metal vein, Shi Lei could use the excuse that the Puerto Rican Trench was too deep and the detection equipment did not find it.
Besides, how could Rongcheng Military District discover it?
Although the second N235 metal vein was in the Puerto Rican Trench, which was more than six thousand meters deep, it might not be able to be mined in a short period of time.
But there was still hope. As long as the deep-diving equipment was developed, maybe it could be mined?
In the end, Shi Lei still had the intention of secretly mining!
