    “Commander, the upgrades for Xiaotian areplete. It’s ready to start underwater mining!”


    “Great, let’s send the Xiaotian robots over.”


    “Commander, Xiaotian’s production speed is a bit slow and seems to be falling behind. I suggest expanding the production lines so that we can keep up when we mine in others in the future!”


    “Then go ahead. You don’t have to tell me every time you do things like this.”


    After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he noticed that Uncle Da seemed hesitant to speak and asked, “Do you have something else to say?”


    “Yes!


    Uncle Da spoke up, “With Xiaotian’s mining efficiency, if we avoid humans, it can produce resources worth up to 100 million Blue Moon dors per day…”


    “What if we don’t avoid humans?”


    “Then it can produce resources worth up to 300 million Blue Moon dors per day…”


    Zhao Yu pondered for a moment and said, “Let’s not avoid them. It was the Earth Federation that wants us to keep a low profile, but we are not going to follow through if keeping a low profile affects our productivity…”


    Uncle Da added, “If that’s the case, it might not sit well with Earth. After all, we’re mining on their…”


    “What are you talking about? I was born on Earth too. Earth is also my. We’re not invading another, no?”


    Zhao Yu smiled and said casually, “Besides, the sort of mining we are doing is the type that they can’t do. It’s all tens of thousands of meters below sea level? We’re not taking over any existing minefields.”


    Uncle Da breathed a sigh of relief andughed, “Then I’ll expand the production of Xiaotian and speed up the mining efficiency as soon as possible…”


    Zhao Yu nodded and looked at the time, “It’s almost time to hand over the nuclear fusion power nt. I should head to Earth. Finally, I’ll have enough technology points for the ten thousand points…”


    “Breaking news! Blue Moon Technology Company is building a controble nuclear fusion power nt in the Shanghai…”


    “As a result, the entire Great Xia will no longer face energy shortages…”


    “The Qiuqiu Group announced a $100 billion investment to enter the battery industry…”


    “Nuclear fusion power willpletely change the human energy structure, but the challenge now is how to store and use electricity conveniently. However, it is certain that whoever solves this problem will be the giant of the next era…”


    The inte was flooded with news about nuclear fusion power nts.


    People all over the world were surprised. They never expected Blue Moon Technology Company to be so powerful, capable of developing nuclear fusion.


    “Nuclear fusion, could it be a scam?”


    “It’s possible. The nuclear fusion project has immense prospects, and any project rted to it can easily secure funding. It’s not impossible for Blue Moon to take risks as well…”


    “No, the news says that Blue Moon Technology Company is about to build a nuclear fusion power nt. This is not a concept, nor is it ambiguous wording…”


    “It’s terrifying. How many scientists does Blue Moon Technology Company have?”


    “It’s not about the scientists. I heard a few days ago that Jade Rabbit 9nded on the moon and discovered alien relics. This technology is brought back from the moon by our Great Xia…”


    “I’ve heard about that too. Otherwise, why would Blue Moon Technology Company’s super factory be built in Chang’an, and why would no one object?!”


    “SkyNet?!”


    Colonel Chu was taken aback and instinctively felt that there was something fishy about this.


    “Mr. Zhao, the matter of SkyNet involves the entire world and is too significant. I can’t make the decision alone. Can you allow us to have a meeting and discuss it before giving you an answer?!”


    “That’s fine!


    Zhao Yu nodded and continued, “Then let’s make a trade for a chip that can be installed in phones, TVs, cars,puters, and any electronic devices. As long as it’s an electronic device, the chip can be installed…”


    Chips…


    Colonel Chu thought for a moment and agreed with a nod.


    It was just a chip, nothing much. Besides, he could also see how advanced the alien chip technology was.


    As for the global coverage of signals once the SkyNet was established, he didn’t care.


    What really worried him waswork security. If SkyNet was installed, there would be no privacy for humanity.


    For a single chip, Zhao Yu naturally didn’t ask for a high price, just a few hundred Blue Moon dor’ worth of resources would do.


    As soon as the chip was handed over to Colonel Chu, he received 500 technology points.


    Zhao Yu curiously asked, “Have you gathered all the resources in the Blue Moon New District?”


    “Yes, we urgently mobilized global efforts, and within three days, we managed to gather all the resources…”


    Colonel Chu also had some concerns. The existing resources were running out, and the newly mined resources alone couldn’t keep up with the demand.


    “Alright, let’s go to the Shanghai first and deliver the nuclear power nt!”


    The group stood up and boarded the spaceship to head to the Shanghai.


    The nuclear power nt was said to be constructed in the Shanghai, but in reality, it was located 50 kilometers away from the city center, covering an area of 5,400 acres.


    A total of ten trillion-kilowatt generating units were built, with an annual cumtive power output of one hundred trillion kilowatts. Oncepleted, it would meet the total electricity demand of nearly a hundred countries, including Great Xia.


    When Zhao Yu arrived at the site of the nuclear power nt, tens of thousands of people had already gathered, including various experts and schrs.


    People looked at Zhao Yu with curiosity. Although they had heard of him, it was their first time seeing him in person.


    “I heard that Zhao Yu was originally from Greater Xia and was taken away by aliens for training five years ago. Now, he has be the representative for the alien negotiations with Earth…”


    But Zhao Yu paid no attention to these rumors. He directly led Colonel Chu into the interior of the nuclear power nt to proceed with the handover and eptance work.


    Seeing this, Colonel Chu quickly called some renowned scientists from the scientificmunity to apany them.


    Although the fusion power nt was built by aliens, it still needed to be evaluated by these experts to determine if it was feasible.


    Many of the experts present had experience in participating in the construction of nuclear fission power nts.


    As they entered the nuclear power nt, someone eximed and pointed at a device in shock, “Could this be the alpha particle confinement device?”


    “How is this possible? Have you solved the problem of the ‘ash removal’ property of alpha particles?”


    Zhao Yu nced at the person but did not say much.


    After all, he was not knowledgeable about these matters, as the construction of the nuclear power nt was handled by mechanical engineers.


    As they proceeded, the apanying experts marveled at the equipment, making Colonel Chu feel a bit embarrassed.


    “It seems that this set of equipment has solved the ‘major disruption’ of sma…”


    “Look at this set. It uses some unknown material and has solved the problem of low ‘activation’ materials…”


    As they hurriedly toured the facility, Zhao Yu brought everyone to the side of the generating units and said, “Let’s test the power output first!”


    “Alright, alright!”


    The experts were already so overwhelmed by what they were seeing that they could hardly tell which way was up. At this moment, their only thought was to confirm whether this nuclear power nt could really generate electricity.


    Zhao Yu turned to a robot and nodded at it.


    In the next second, themand was given and transmitted to various units. The nuclear power nt officially started its operation.


    “Hum-”


    With a loud noise, the entire nuclear power nt started functioning.


    The values inside the generating units rapidly soared.


    “It’s exploding! It’s exploding!”


    An expert who worked at Earth’srgest nuclear fission power nt looked shocked. “It has already exceeded…”


    “Twice as much…”


    “Three times as much…”


    “Ten times as much…”


    “Fifty times as much…”


    “One hundred times as much…”


    Amidst the exims of the experts, the power output temporarily stabilized and finally settled at 250 times the initial value.


    “A single fusion power nt actually releases 250 times the energy of Earth’srgest nuclear fission power nt…”


    “There are only a little over four hundred nuclear fission power nts globally, but this one alone is equivalent to the total power output of three hundred nuclear fission power nts!”


    “What’s most terrifying is that this fusion power nt doesn’t produce nuclear waste, has no nuclear radiation, and there’s no risk of a nuclear leak…”


    “That’s right. I just read about it. The fusion power nt uses the isotopes deuterium and tritium as fuel. Once the fuel is depleted, the fusion reaction will cease. Its safety is over a thousand times higher than nuclear fission power nts…”


    “No, what I find most terrifying is that this fusion power nt only requires seawater as raw material. It’s practically an inexhaustible resource!”


    Watching the somewhat ecstatic experts, Colonel Chu also felt a surge of excitement. Thepletion of this nuclear power nt meant that the energy crisis would be resolved.


    Humans would no longerck energy and wouldn’t have to fight each other to the death for petroleum and other chemical fuels..
