Three days later, in a room of the highest-standard underground laboratory, Richard carefully placed a thousand composite explosive blocks on the table into the space iron ring.
Take a step, walk out of the underground laboratory, and appear in the open space in front of the main laboratory in Eden.
Here, Pandora, the old lich Afu and the eight-armed skeleton Anan are all here.
Among them, Pandora and the Lich Old Man were standing in front of a skeleton, discussing how to further transform it.
The eight-armed skeleton was in the distance, quietly looking at the dozens of new spell puppets that the old man Lich had made during this period. He looked like a glutton picking pork belly at a butcher shop, thinking about the... It tastes better when cooked together.
The old man Lich had obviously been wary of the eight-armed skeleton's behavior for a long time. After all, he had been "patronized" by the eight-armed skeleton many times during these days. Therefore, while discussing with Pandora, I glanced at the eight-armed skeleton from time to time.
Once he sees that the eight-armed skeleton is ready to take action, he immediately shouts unceremoniously: "Hey, don't touch it, don't touch it, that's mine! Stay away. If you want to find bones, go to your own warehouse to pick them up. Don't grab them." I’ve chosen it, so I want some face!”
After hearing what the old man Lich said, the eight-armed skeleton retracted his hand angrily, but did not leave just yet. Still lingering reluctantly next to the magic puppets, looking like he was patiently waiting for the old man Lich to relax.
When the Lich Old Man saw it, his vigilance continued to increase, and he glanced at the eight-armed skeleton more and more often.
Richard took this scene into his eyes and couldn't help but shook his head. He originally thought that the old man Lich and the eight-armed skeleton could coexist peacefully and form an amnesia alliance club or something to stay together.
Now it seems almost impossible.
In fact, this is indeed a problem with the eight-armed skeleton. There are obviously many purchased skeletons in the warehouse, so why are they holding on to the old man Lich's magic puppet
Could it be that the bones that make up the spell puppet are somewhat different from the bones in the warehouse and have undergone some changes
Well, maybe this is really possible. After I finish this busy period, I can try to study it.
Richard thought to himself as he walked towards the spell testing field at the bottom of the sinkhole.
Pandora saw Richard from the corner of her eye, stopped her discussion with the old man Lich, looked at Richard to say hello and asked: "Hey, Richard, haven't you finished your work yet? Are you going to test your compound explosive again?"
"Hey, don't touch it!" The old man Lich roared at the eight-armed skeleton first, then looked at Richard and asked, "Boy Richard, you've been busy for almost ten days, right? , what are you busy with, I still don’t understand.”
"I'm going to test compound explosives." Richard first said to Pandora, then looked at the old man Lich and said, "As for the purpose of busying myself, it's just to study a kind of weapon. It's almost at the end now. It should be successful in a few days.”
"Weapon?" The old man Lich's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he asked with interest, "What weapon? Is it very powerful?"
"It's relatively powerful." Richard knew that it would be difficult to explain clearly to the old man Lich, so he simply said vaguely.
"Can that be used to deal with the tree that was imprisoned in the room?" The old man Lich asked, "I know that the tree is indeed subdued, but I always feel that he is not a good person. I can't tell when We are going to rebel again while you are away. If your weapon can be used, it might save some trouble."
Will using nuclear weapons to deal with tinwood save some trouble
I'm afraid this is not a matter of saving trouble at all. It would be better to destroy the entire Garden of Eden.
Richard couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, looked at the old man Lich and said, "My weapons have limited uses and are not suitable for dealing with tin wood. So, Mr. Afu, if you find something wrong with tin wood , it’s better to tell me in advance and let me solve it, it’s easier that way.”
"It can also make Eden safer for a while." Richard said silently in his heart.
"That's fine." The old man Lich heard this.
"Then you get busy first, I'm leaving." Richard said.
"good."
"See you soon."
The old Lich and Pandora waved their hands respectively.
Richard stepped forward and walked back to the spell testing field at the bottom of the sinkhole. The old man Lich and Pandora turned around and continued to discuss the improvement of spell puppets. The eight-armed skeleton stared at a bunch of spell skeletons, waiting for opportunities.
…
Spell testing ground.
Richard came here, reached out and took out pieces of explosives from the space iron ring, and placed them around.
What he is preparing to do now is to conduct explosives testing for the last time to verify the previously determined results. If there are no problems this time, then we can carry out some finishing work on nuclear weapons manufacturing and completely manufacture nuclear weapons.
In order to ensure that there would be no problems, he was extremely serious this time, and it took him nearly half an hour to completely place the explosive block.
Compared with usual times, this time it is less than half the time - usually it only takes about 20 minutes to arrange one time - if it is shorter, it will be easier to cause problems. After all, the position of each explosive must be accurate to microns, and the detonation time is The detonators should also be as completely consistent as possible.
Half an hour later, a hundred composite explosive blocks were seen regularly arranged in an ellipse. They were each connected to a detonator. The detonator was equipped with an excitation structure. The wires stretched out from behind the excitation structure. Finally, all the wires merged into one. Extending to a console dozens of meters away.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
Richard looked at it, nodded with satisfaction, and took out a test model from the space iron ring.
Different from the previous model, in order to simulate the real detonation state of nuclear weapons as much as possible, this time the model is no longer a simple stainless steel block, but a replica of the uranium metal component of the "Crystal Heart".
The shape and size are exactly the same as the original. In fact, even the material is the same - made of uranium.
The only difference is that the "Crystal Heart" uses the extremely precious weapon-grade purified uranium 235, while the replica uses unpurified uranium metal—that is, most of it is the isotope uranium 238, with only a very small amount of uranium. 235.
In this case, more than 99% simulation can be achieved. After all, apart from extremely subtle differences, isotopes have almost identical physical and chemical properties - this is knowledge taught in middle school physics.
At the same time, because the replica contains only a very small amount of uranium 235 (less than 1%), no matter how it is squeezed, it cannot reach a supercritical state and trigger a nuclear explosion.
In short, the replica made of unrefined uranium metal is a perfect test target.
Perfect... Richard said silently in his heart.
Richard held the replica with silver light and gently placed it in the center of the explosive. After confirming that it was correct, he walked towards the test bench dozens of meters away.
The last explosive test begins... Richard thought to himself, reaching out and pressing a red button connected to the wire on the console.
"Crack!"
"boom!"
Almost at the same time as the button was pressed, a hundred elliptically arranged explosive blocks exploded at the same time, spreading huge pressure toward the center.
The flames rose, and Richard's eyes flashed with light. He used the perspective ability of his gazing eyes to look at the replica through the obstruction of flames and dust. You can see that the replica of the weird water cup was squeezed into a cylinder by the detonation wave of the explosive in just a moment, not much bigger than a human finger.
If it is uranium 235, it can definitely reach a supercritical state and trigger a nuclear explosion in this state.
Very good... A gratifying thought flashed through Richard's mind.
As a result, before this thought could completely disappear, Richard's eyes shrank.
In his field of vision, he suddenly saw faint energy light waves, which flashed on the surface of the test target squeezed into a cylinder, and then spread out suddenly.
This is
