"Central control room.???"
Jim said:
"Then you should take the road on the right."
Du Yuqi followed him, and not long after, he was blocked by another gate. This gate seemed to be composed of three layers of composite doors. Jim spread his hands to show that he was helpless. Even if he used the method of cutting off the power, he could only If you can open one of the doors, but the other two are fingerprint locks and password locks, there is really nothing you can do.
At this time, a door on the opposite side suddenly slid open, and then a man in a white coat walked over. When they saw Du Yuqi and Jim, their faces suddenly showed joy and said:
"You are here just in time. There is a big problem with the circuit in our research room. We haven't sent anyone to fix it for two days! Come with me quickly!"
Du Yuqi glanced at Jim, who immediately understood and said helplessly:
"But, but the task we have now is to repair the damaged unit over there! We will be punished if we go back!"
The white coat immediately said angrily:
"Who is your superior? Tell him that it was me, Dr. Malka, who recruited you, and I will be responsible for all problems. As for you, follow me quickly and get me that damn integrated circuit board, otherwise you will Don’t even think about getting off work!”
Facing such a powerful doctor, Jim had no choice but to leave with him unless Du Yuqi turned against him on the spot. But then I thought about it, if this doctor leads the way, wouldn't it be possible to enter some restricted areas smoothly? He said nothing more.
Dr. Malka could see that he was also a cautious person. After contacting the headquarters and confirming the identities of Jim and Leal, he took the two of them into the top-secret area inside. Of course, he had to talk to the person on the other end of the intercom. There was a fierce argument, and it seemed that this old guy's bad temper was well known to everyone in the senior management.
In the process of entering the top-secret area, he passed through the protection of two three-layer composite doors. Through the conversation between Dr. Malka and the staff next to him, Du Yuqi also learned that this department can be said to be in a state of decline.
Originally, the crystal block production department was the most important core department in the Steel Fortress, but how could Kamoka and Yangzi focus on production after they came here? The staff in this department have been repeatedly transferred away, and even some technicians have been forced to do work such as porters. Now the remaining people can't even maintain basic operations and can only barely perform maintenance on the machines. Just maintenance.
However, although Kamoka and Yangzi were crazy, after achieving this step, they did not dare to squeeze this place anymore, and they did not dare to do anything to the grumpy Dr. Malka, because they knew that as long as they could keep this department intact, If it is preserved, then the Steel Fortress, no matter how badly damaged it is, is still a chicken that can lay golden eggs, and it can produce profits if it is taken over.
If things are not done properly in this way, then Agamemnon will not completely go crazy. Of course, you have to count on how much Kamoka and Yangzi attach great importance to this department, so don’t think about it, and replace it with the normal operation of the Steel Fortress. At that time, Dr. Malka was one person below ten thousand people. Sometimes even the captain of the fortress had to give way to him, not to mention the two small maintenance workers. With his order, the chief and deputy supervisors of the maintenance department would all I want to come over and strike.
After entering the core area, Professor Malka directly left a lot of work to the two of them, and then went to do his own business. The environment here is completely different from the outside environment. The walls are full of shining liquid crystals. The screen has a large amount of data flowing from it from time to time. The ground is also paved with something similar to crystal glass, which looks exceptionally clean, bright and brand new.
Manpower here is already very scarce. At that time, there were only three or five people in this large laboratory covering thousands of square meters, including Du Yuqi and Jim. It was so quiet that it could scare ants to death. Looking at the large black empty seats was really... Somewhat dumbfounding.
At this time, of course Du Yuqi didn't have to work anymore. All the work was left to Jim to do. He was looking around and doing things. It looked like he was doing repairs here and there, but in fact he was collecting all kinds of information. The core information, until Du Yuqi saw a sketch on a desk, he was stunned.
It turns out that although this sketch was drawn by hand, with a few rather sloppy strokes, it still looked quite vivid. It was as if the steel fortress had stayed on the ground. However, it had stayed on the ground. After getting up, a long drilling column was pierced downwards, so its shape looked similar to a thumbtack at first glance. It would be hard to tell if you didn't look carefully.
On this sketch, it should be a drawing of the damaged drilling column, and there are a few scrawled words written next to it, which probably means there is a problem with the drill bit.
Seeing this scene, Du Yuqi suddenly thought of the first time the clown appeared, which was when he emerged from a huge underground drilling machine. It can be seen that this mysterious organization has also achieved very high attainments in underground drilling skills.
After seeing this sketch, Du Yuqi suddenly became cheerful, as if he were finding threads in a mess. Then he discovered something strange, which was the internal notes and supplies used by these staff. There is actually a clear "ZeRo" watermark on it! ! It seems that the internal code name of this mysterious organization is ZeRo.
Next, Du Yuqi found relevant information, which was the method of crystal production. After learning about this process, Du Yuqi was shocked and speechless!
It turns out that the process of producing crystals is similar to mining oil. You first need to explore the existence of underground crystal fields. After ascertaining the reserves of the crystal fields, you fly over from the steel base. After landing on the ground, you use a drilling machine to continuously drain the crystal source liquid below. mined out.
Crystal source liquid does not originally exist underground. There are different opinions on how this magical substance was produced. The principle is very complicated. After Du Yuqi found some information, he roughly understood the principle of mining.
It turns out that just like pus will flow out after a person is injured, crystal source fluid is equivalent to the existence of pus. This thing does not exist in the normal human body. Deep underground in Arad Continent, there is a peculiar rock formation called three-phase rock formation.
Once the refined catalyst is injected into the three-phase rock formation, a strange reaction will occur, and the crystal source liquid will be quickly generated, which can then be collected and used. Under normal circumstances, the internal exploration of the crystal field reserves within the organization is based on It can be judged by the size and trend of the local three-phase rock formations.
However, during the mining process, very strong pollution will be caused. Even after the mining is completed, this pollution will continue for many years, and the harm will be extremely serious.
This feeling made Du Yuqi quite bad, perhaps because of his professional habits. This mining method reminded him of the cruel behavior of taking bile from live bears. When Du Yuqi first entered the Arad continent, he saw Those crazy tauren and crazy goblins are caused by the pollution caused by this mining process for a long time!
The crystal source liquid that was just mined actually looks very poor. It is black and viscous, has a strong and strange smell, and is also highly polluting. It is similar to the crude oil that is mined and needs to go through a series of complex processes. After processing, it will turn into various small crystal blocks that are clean and harmless, and look crystal clear and very cute.
The original intention of the design of the Steel Fortress is to achieve "maximum production capacity" to reduce consumption as much as possible and increase the time of mining and stay outside. Therefore, the power system of the Steel Fortress was directly designed to use "crystal source fluid" as the main form of fuel.
There is no need to replenish fuel at ordinary times. Once fuel is scarce, you only need to add a small amount of catalyst to use your own "crystal source liquid" as a continuous source of fuel, even if it is the "crystal you carry" If the "source liquid" is insufficient, then finding a place with a crystal field for emergency mining can also be successful.
At the same time, the ZeRo organization also noticed the pollution caused during the production process, but their consideration was not at all on how to reduce or alleviate the pollution, but on treating this pollution as a very rare resource. kansh.c is used to fire a variety of weapons to deal with enemies.
For example, the highly toxic cat demon clan suffered a devastating blow because of this pollutant. At that time, the goods transported by the Xuzu Demon-Conquering Group were also raw materials with very strong pollution power. Somehow, the news leaked, and they were The hostile organization hired strong men to raid and destroy it!

After understanding so many secrets, many questions in Du Yuqi's heart finally got preliminary answers. He then discovered that most of the areas in this steel fortress were actually used for mining services. The largest area was the drilling area that could go more than five thousand meters underground, followed by the refining area, and then the warehouse area. These three major areas occupy a full 50% of the entire steel fortress, so to be precise, this is a production-based base.
However, Du Yuqi also noticed that the full name of this steel fortress is "Arctulos Integrated Flying War Platform", which means that military-related uses were also considered when it was opened. This is like many military factories converted into It is true that these manufacturers can produce a large number of tanks again with only minor modifications.
After getting the information he wanted, Du Yuqi no longer wanted to waste time here. When he was thinking of how to leave, a series of angry curses suddenly came from his ears:
"Renze, you idiot! You are an absolute idiot! Who asked you to pour me hot milk? What I want is black coffee! Black coffee that is so strong that it can make the devil's eyes bleed out. I know your mind is a mess, but has it gotten so bad that you can’t even understand what I’m saying?” 8
