I ask you to design equipment, but you do science fiction for me?

Li Xinran remained silent for a moment, then shook her head impatiently.

"how could I know?"

He didn't say one more thing: he no longer wanted to get involved in this matter.

Back in her room, Li Xinran felt a little regretful.

I flipped through some materials about the universe and the construction of the base.

He could tell from these materials that their current bases were located on relatively peaceful planets.

Although there are some extremely harsh planets, there is no other way to build here.

As for the planet that Su Chen locked onto, it was completely different from some of the bases mentioned above.

The next day.

Wang Jianfeng and Li Xinran contacted Professor Wang.

Professor Wang watched the two of them with a smile, wondering how they had gotten together.

As far as he knew, the two people did not have a good relationship.

"Is something the matter?" Professor Wang asked with a smile.

Seeing that Professor Wang knew nothing, Wang Jianfeng and Li Xinran were a little incredulous.

However, they assumed that Su Chen would definitely instruct Professor Wang to support him.

But judging from Professor Wang's expression, he seemed to know nothing at all; perhaps he was pretending to be confused.

Wang Jianfeng crossed his legs, took a leisurely sip of tea, and said with a smile, "Don't play dumb in front of us. Didn't Su Chen tell you?"

Professor Wang looked suspicious and shook his head, saying, "I contacted Su Chen a while ago. He wants me to lead a group of people to a planet to build a base. I'm preparing for that now."

"We haven't been in contact since then. Did something happen to Su Chen?"

Wang Jianfeng shook his head. "Nothing happened, it's just that we had some disagreements."

He paused for a moment, glanced at Li Xinran, and gestured for her to continue his topic.

Li Xinran pretended not to see it and continued to think with her head down.

Wang Jianfeng coughed and continued, "We believe that the planet Su Chen chose for you is too dangerous and could very likely cause casualties."

"So we think we should move to a more peaceful planet, but Su Chen disagrees, so we want to ask for your opinion."

"If you are not willing, we can make changes for you and build on a better planet instead."

"That way, you can have an easier time too."

Upon hearing this, Professor Wang pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "There's no need to change it."

"I think this planet is actually pretty good."

When the two men talked to him about it, Professor Wang understood why they had come.

He was actually very surprised.

He didn't expect that the two of them would have a disagreement with Su Chen because of this.

However, they meant well, and Professor Wang was quite polite in his remarks.

Li Xinran and Wang Jianfeng exchanged a glance, neither of them expecting Professor Wang to have such an attitude.

Moreover, this was his own idea, and Su Chen was not involved.

If Su Chen were to offer his full support, Professor Wang's attitude would likely be even more resolute.

Wang Jianfeng slammed his fist on the table in anger.

"Professor Wang, you really need to think this over carefully."

“This matter concerns not only you, but also many other people.”

"You can't do something without considering the safety of others. You should think back to some of the past examples."

Professor Wang immediately objected upon hearing this.

Isn't this saying that you sacrifice others for your own selfish interests?

His face was somber as he silently stared at Wang Jianfeng.

"Wang Jianfeng, you must apologize to me."

"We're friends, but how could you say that to me?"

How could you make such a assumption about me?

"How could I sacrifice others for my own sake? This planet is indeed dangerous, but we encounter all sorts of dangers every time we go to a new planet."

"Just because its environment is harsh, does that mean we should avoid it? What if we encounter even harsher environments in the future? How can we avoid them then?"

"What will you do when there's a day when you absolutely have to avoid it?"

Professor Wang talked on and on, leaving Wang Jianfeng somewhat speechless.

He stood up awkwardly and sincerely apologized to Professor Wang.

Of course, he still stood by his opinion, only apologizing for the wrong thing he had said earlier.

Professor Wang waved his hand, somewhat impatiently saying, "If there's nothing else, I have to go now."

At this moment, Li Xinran, who had been silent until now, spoke up quietly.

"Professor Wang, I hope you can reconsider this matter."

“I wrote a report and analysis about that planet last night. Please take a look.”

"If you think what I said makes sense, then you might as well change to another planet."

"If you feel that this doesn't make sense, then I respect your choice."

After he finished speaking, he handed a document to Professor Wang.

Professor Wang nodded, saying he would watch it carefully, and then cut off contact with the two of them.

in the room.

Wang Jianfeng and Li Xinran fell silent.

Wang Jianfeng glanced at Li Xinran indifferently and asked in a low voice, "Have you given up?"

Li Xinran glared at him irritably and said impatiently, "I just did what I was supposed to do. If Professor Wang is willing to work on a harsh planet, that's his choice, and I won't stop him."

"Don't bother me anymore. I knew you weren't up to any good."

After saying that, he stomped his foot in anger and stormed off.

Wang Jianfeng shook his head speechlessly. How could he be blamed? Wasn't this his own choice?
Professor Wang carefully read the document sent by Li Xinran, which contained some of Li Xinran's analyses and predictions.

Professor Wang was very grateful for this document.

This document made him realize that the planet was more dangerous than he had imagined.

the next day.

He then convened a meeting, handed over the documents analyzed by Li Xinran to the experts, and asked them to carefully consider solutions.

In particular, how to defend against low temperatures.

This matter must be handled with utmost care; we must devise a perfect solution.

At this moment, Su Chen was also troubled by this matter.

They have the capability to manufacture protective suits that can withstand extremely low temperatures, but the problem now is that once the protective suit is damaged, it could very likely cause frostbite to a person within just a few seconds.

Therefore, Su Chen needs to research a protective suit that is extremely durable and can withstand low temperatures.

At the same time, Su Chen also wanted to research some cold-resistant items, such as vehicles, and some special medicines.

These special medicines can help people resist extreme cold weather for a short period of time after taking them.

First and foremost, he was researching protective suits.

Over the course of a few days, Su Chenguang had developed four different types of protective suits.

One type is an outer coat, and the other is close-fitting clothing. The other two types are more common protective suits.

We've finished studying the protective suits.

Su Chen immediately transferred all the technical data to Professor Wang, instructing him to begin mass production and experimentation.

First, there's the experiment.

If there are no problems, start mass production as soon as possible.

He then devoted himself to another study on this subject.

This research is about materials.

Because the temperature on the extremely cold planet is so low, they have to develop a material.

To be precise, it should be an element

This element was named the Ice Element by Su Chen.

This ice element needs to have extremely strong resistance to cold and be able to fuse with most metals and materials.

When the two are combined, the properties of the metal change, resulting in greater cold resistance.

This is a rather troublesome research project, and it requires a great deal of mental effort.

Su Chen has basically stayed indoors for the past few days.

It's not that he's constantly researching, but rather that he needs to take a break after a period of research.

After half a month, Su Chen finally figured out this ice element and then passed all the technology on to Professor Wang.

Professor Wang was also busy, thinking about how to establish a base.

Now that they have chosen a planet, they need to prepare in advance.

Su Chen has already started working on them, and Professor Wang is also conducting a base experiment.

First, the experimental environment needs to be set up.

The environment is colder than the planet they are going to, and they are building a base in this environment.

Three bases had already been built, but they had all failed because the cold had caused cracks or damage.

With the ice element provided by Su Chen, they began conducting experiments again.

The experiment was very successful, and the base that was built did not develop any cracks even after a long period of time.

This proves that the ice element Su Chen researched does indeed have an effect.

However, Professor Wang and his team's research goes beyond that.
They are now designing an alternative base.

Their previous base was mainly made of metal materials.

Professor Wang and his team had a sudden inspiration: since they were in a very cold environment, could they use a substance similar to ice to build a base?

He hasn't reported this matter to Su Chen yet, wanting to make some progress in his research before doing so.

Experts are working hard to research in this direction.

During his research, Professor Wang thought of a friend.

This friend's name is Xing Zhouquanmiao.

Zhou Quanmiao is currently at the Antarctic base, where the temperature is extremely low.

In particular, their core technologies are related to extremely low temperatures.

They used special ice materials to create interstellar warships.

Professor Wang called Zhou Quanmiao to inquire about the relevant freezing technology.

Zhou Quanmiao also provided him with some information, but this information was not very useful to Professor Wang.

If they could acquire the core freezing technology for the Antarctic base, Professor Wang believed that the harsh environment of that planet would no longer affect them.

Unfortunately, they are unlikely to provide such technology.

Professor Wang can only conduct the research on his own.

Although he did not develop a core freezing technology similar to that used in Antarctic bases, Professor Wang did develop a similar freezing technology through various efforts.

This freezing technology can make ice blocks extremely hard, so that they are difficult to melt even at extremely high temperatures.

It is no longer an ice cube, but a material.

Some elements within this material have subtly changed.

Professor Wang then utilized the ice element provided by Su Chen.

They eventually developed an extremely powerful super ice element.

This ice element can make ice a special substance, even stronger than some of the metals they produce.

He specifically ordered someone to take a spaceship and deliver a piece of ice element to Earth 2.

When Su Chen learned of this, he specially invited Wang Jianfeng and Li Xinran over to let them see Professor Wang's research and let them know that their decision was not wrong.

It was because of his own decision that he was able to research and develop a new element.

And this element can change many, many things.

A small, square black box was placed in front of the three of them. Su Chen smiled and put on protective gloves, then looked at the other two and told them to put on gloves as well.

After the two men put on protective gloves, Su Chen asked Wang Jianfeng to open the black box.

Wang Jianfeng opened it carefully.

Several beams of light shot out from the box. Wang Jianfeng took a few steps back and squinted to look at what was inside.

It was something that looked no different from a block of ice.

He paused for a moment, then quickly recalled the interstellar warship that had visited the Antarctic base years ago.

He still vividly remembered that interstellar warship, and this block of ice was no different from the ice on that warship.

There were some testing tools next to the table.

Wang Jianfeng picked up a dagger and gently touched the ice.

The ice cube made a crisp, metallic sound.

He plunged the dagger into the ice, but there was no problem. Instead, the dagger touched something extremely cold and instantly cracked.

He gently placed it on the table; the dagger had shattered into several pieces.

Li Xinran was the most shocked to see this scene.

Wang Jianfeng only knew that this thing was very scary, but Li Xinran understood exactly what it was used for.

He carefully approached the ice cube and gently touched it with his gloved hand.

Even with gloves on, he could feel a chill that instantly spread throughout his body.

He quickly withdrew his hand, staring at Su Chen in astonishment: "What is this?"

Su Chen smiled and said, "This is a special species that Professor Wang researched in order to go to that planet."

"What do you think of what we'll call the Ice Element?"

He looked at the two of them with a hint of smugness.

Wang Jianfeng and Li Xinran exchanged a glance and nodded silently.

Need I say more?

This element is absolutely terrifying and has unimaginable effects.

At this moment, Su Chen said again, "You see, it is precisely because we are going to that planet that we need to make all sorts of breakthroughs, which led to this kind of research and these kinds of things."

"If I hadn't persisted, this thing might never have come into being."

After speaking, he didn't give the two a chance to reply and lowered his head again to study the ice element. (End of Chapter)
