Will the kemonomimi encounter Alien Ranch Story?

"Including my spare parts, there are three igniters, which means I can only make three bombs. Also, the fuel rods have varying wear and tear, and with such a large yield to detonate, the actual reaction will be difficult to meet the design standards, so the power may be much lower than we previously simulated and estimated."

"Even according to the most perfect simulation, the explosive yield is not enough to blow up the entire mountain..."

The simulated detonation resulted in a large-scale landslide. Considering that Xia Lin's algorithm still had problems, no one knows what the actual effect would be.

"Has the projectile manufacturing been completed?"

"It's finished. It was very difficult, and a lot of parts were scrapped." All the high-grade materials such as D32 steel and iron blocks purchased from Rhodes Island were used here. The main body of the projectile is cylindrical, resembling the magazine of a revolver.

"Click!" One by one, fuel rods were inserted into the missile body. "The contacts are intact, and there are no problems with the docking. Skadi, your skills are really good."

"Thank you, but a lot of it is still ruined."

"We just don't know how much will leak..." The hatch closed, and liquid fuel began to be released into the missile's reactor. "Hopefully, it won't exceed our estimates."

"What about the detonator? You said it wouldn't explode easily."

"Well, the deuterium-helium reaction requires a lower temperature, but it still needs an instantaneous temperature of hundreds of millions of Kelvin. My igniter uses a laser to ignite a small piece of metallic hydrogen fuel, first forming a high-temperature ion sphere."

Then, by repeatedly heating and pressurizing the material to the reaction temperature using lasers and confinement fields, deuterium-helium fuel is injected to initiate the fusion reaction.

The next step is to continuously increase the confinement pressure, maintaining the ultra-high pressure state while continuously injecting fuel to sustain the reaction.

"However, since this is an explosion, we don't need to do that. We can directly focus on the mixed deuterium-helium fuel. For this, I even disassembled parts of the control panel and nozzles on the reactor." These are parts that can be salvaged with some materials, including the laser igniter.

"Actually, it sounds complicated, but it's really just a matter of a moment. The rest is up to the sealed container, the space, and the remaining fuel. We'll react as much as we can."

The biggest secret about nuclear bombs is that they can be built, and the quality of the technology affects the reaction rate, which is the difference between the theoretical yield and the effective yield.

Is it stable?

"It's very stable. After all, it's used in engines. If it were unstable, we would have blown ourselves up long ago."

Xia Lin climbed onto the Bull's engine compartment and began to open the hatch, revealing the intricate and complex structure beneath the reactor, which was in a shutdown state.

"Click—" Xia Lin carefully removed a light red module. "Here, don't drop it. This is a core module. If you drop it, the reactor will be ruined unless I find a way to buy a new one."

What restraints are used on the Covenant's fusion reactor?

The answer is: gravitational restraint, and the core of gravitational restraint is the graviton particle container in the "condensed saturation state" within this module.

"And this..." Four tubular objects were also carefully taken out. "Be very careful, this is what makes the reactor so expensive."

"Can it be blown up?"

"The first one is fine, but the second one won't do. Don't even think about it. If this thing is destroyed, I won't be able to find a replacement."

The very process of preparing and separating gravitons is a paradox—how do you separate gravitons? You obtain them by event horizon stripping using an artificial supergravity field, but how do you generate an artificial supergravity field, using gravitons…

What's the second one?

Xia Lin sighed. "Magnetic monopole." It's fortunate that this is Terra, a scientific wasteland. In any other modern civilization, any engineer or scientist with even a little knowledge would evaporate on the spot upon hearing this name, and you might not be able to find them even if you searched the entire surface.

"Alright, I'm disassembling the lasers now." The ultra-high energy instantaneous lasers looked like cans of cola. After disassembling all the lasers from the reactor, including the pressurization unit, cooling unit, and power supply unit, Xia Lin took the two deadly modules back from W and reassembled them.

As long as there is qualified nuclear fuel, the process of making a nuclear bomb is not much more difficult than making sausages in a factory. The biggest problem is actually how to make qualified nuclear fuel.

Especially fission bombs—it's said that as long as you can produce weapon-grade nuclear fuel, you can use a pressure cooker and a big hammer—of course, this is an exaggeration, and in reality, the necessary industrial restrictions are still in place.

"Alright, let's get started..." Xia Lin closed the engine compartment cover again. The laser was easy to make as long as there were materials, but the restraint module and the cooling module were not so easy to work on.

"Whoosh—" The outer casing was roughly opened, the cables were roughly pulled out, and the disassembly and modification were carried out in an extremely rough manner. There was no trace of the carefulness that had been shown when disassembling the restraint module and the fluid magnetic ring device. From the actions, W could tell that the previous two items were really valuable.

"Don't look at me like that. I have at least seven or eight years of experience illegally modifying reactor igniters."

"You just said it was illegal, right?" W revealed a witch-like smile. "I never thought you'd do something like this, bro."

"This issue is like doping in competitive sports. Everyone knows that none of those track racers have not illegally modified their engines and jet systems, but..." Xia Lin shrugged.

"This is an open secret, and the manufacturer has already included this function in the design. It would normally require modification of the injection system and fuel control system. Otherwise, simply overloading the laser would be useless."

This allows for the instantaneous ignition of more nuclear fuel, releasing greater energy to the point of almost turning the entire reactor into a nuclear bomb, thereby achieving greater propulsion energy. Some even go so far as to produce near-explosive output and use the explosion itself as propulsion.

"You guys are really playing some thrills, bringing something that can blow up a mountain... for racing?"

"They're not using this kind of fuel and reactor. This is salvaged from something else. That thing itself isn't much smaller than a mountain. The power source that can make it fly, do you think it can't blow up a mountain? Let me tell you, the power source provides a stable output, often at the expense of peak power..."

"Unbelievable, but buddy, do you have any spare parts? Could I have one?" W smiled seductively, clinging to him like a boneless, beautiful snake. "I'll take it to a friend to celebrate his upcoming coronation. He should at least give a gift."

W's idea was very simple: what could be more exciting than launching half the capital city, the entire palace, and the king himself into the sky with fireworks when he ascended the throne?

"No, don't even think about it. I know what you're planning to do..."

Kal'tsit had already told Xia Lin about some things regarding W, instructing her to keep her powerful treasures safe.

Who knows, one day this cockroach girl, blinded by hatred, might steal some big bomb.

Or rather, if Xia Lin's things weren't subject to the strict rules of not being able to detonate with energy stones, and if there weren't such strict rules for detonation and preservation, W would have stolen them long ago, given her personality. It's just that she still has some sense.

Moreover, most people who play with explosives for a long time are outwardly crazy but actually extremely meticulous—those who aren't careful would have blown themselves up eight hundred times over long ago.

"Tsk—" If this weren't a completely different system, I would have already groped you naked.

However, even though W didn't quite understand the power of this series of things, he managed to hold back.

"Besides, if you want revenge, you might as well pester Patriot; if he's willing to help you."

"If that old stubborn man could be persuaded, would he be called an old stubborn man?" W said irritably.

"Alright, one is modified." One by one, the modified lasers were placed into the reserved openings on the projectile, and finally a huge thing that looked like a long sea urchin was obtained.

"The Patriots should have finished digging the detonation crater by now." Only these strong Ursus warriors can work in the field for extended periods, especially in areas where a small number of remaining Terrorfish still roam.

However, after the bombing, there probably won't be any remaining sea creatures; even if there were, they would likely have been completely destroyed.

In the snow-capped mountain valley, at the detonation point, outside three extremely narrow sloping tunnels more than two hundred meters deep, a simple pulley crane slowly lowered three long sea urchins to the bottom of the pit. Since there was no need for mining, there was no need to consider the issue of mine tunnel support, and the diameter was only about one meter, so it was essentially no different from drilling a deep well.

"There's only one problem: the cement used to seal it might turn into a nuclear-powered, self-forging shell."

"It's also possible that the cement itself was fine. After all, the concrete you provided is much stronger than the rock, which actually put pressure on the other side, causing the mountain to crack and collapse." The detonation point was personally surveyed and determined by W, and now it's time to test her professional skills.

"Get out of here, get out of here quickly!" After Xia Lin checked that every relay pole was working properly, he told everyone to run. In this kind of situation, a real man never looks back at an explosion. Who the hell would dare to look back at an explosion of this magnitude? Everyone wished their parents had two fewer legs.

Knowing the formidable Shield Guards, they quickly boarded the vehicle without a word, counted the number of people, and made sure no fools remained at the demolition site. They had also informed the civilians in the settlements near the farm and in Schutzburg.

Although they don't usually go north, there are bound to be one or two oddballs. But if one of them really doesn't listen to orders... well, we can only wish them peace.

The vehicle drove in the opposite direction for a long distance, almost stopping at the edge of the relay. "Here you go," Xia Lin handed the remote control to W. "Now it's time to verify whether your skills are worth the hiring fee."

"Hmm," W wasn't in the mood for witty remarks, so he detonated the remote control, held it in his palm, opened the cover, stared at the red button, and hesitated to press it. After a few minutes, he finally looked up with feigned ease, "Is this what it feels like to hold the power of a god in your hands?"

She repeatedly opened and closed the lid, making a crisp clicking sound, but no one around her asked her anything. Everyone knew that this was indeed a heavy burden of pressure, and they understood that her feelings were far more complicated than they appeared on the surface.

"This is probably the only time in my life I will ever have an explosion like this, and it's also the only time I've ever had an explosion without using Originium Arts."

W quickly opened and closed the lid, and then, as if by accident, pressed the button during the process.

At first nothing happened, and everyone thought that Xia Lin might have put the wrong fuel in. Even W showed a confused and embarrassed expression.

This indicates that her calculations and experience were flawed, the employer wasted valuable equipment, and nothing happened.

However, the next second, the earth shook and rumbled, and even the most patriotic person, who was usually calm and collected, turned pale with fright. The towering mountains in front of him seemed to be a giant, dark blue snake, twisting and turning little by little, and the rocks and earth seemed to be rippling like water.

Rocks crumbled, the entire mountain arched upwards, and then, through the lens of the explosion, collapsed to the north. The mountain and rocks blocked the sunlight, and billowing smoke and dust shrouded the entire mountain range, with only the incessant rumble of thunder echoing.

Just as W predicted, the Originium ejected from the explosion also joined the explosive reaction. The continuous Originium explosions were like crackling firecrackers. Finally, when a certain critical point was reached, a small natural disaster was artificially triggered. Combined with the power of a megaton-class nuclear bomb, the entire mountain began to writhe wildly like a snake.

Those rocks, no bigger than buildings, were no more solid than sugar cubes, and succumbed to this unparalleled power. "Ah, I think I miscalculated. This power..." W looked at Xia Lin, pale-faced, whose expression also turned very serious. "It's tens of thousands of times larger than I calculated! Run!"

The entire snow-capped mountain was shaking, and the snow poured down like a waterfall. Under everyone's stunned gaze, the mountain gradually deformed, just like a sandcastle buried with firecrackers, collapsing and breaking into pieces in a series of deafening explosions.

The explosion blew away not only the mountain ridge that was supposed to detonate, but almost half of the mountain was blown away, and the remaining half of the mountain fell in the opposite direction, which was the direction of Xia Lin and his vehicle.

"The mountain collapsed!!" The infected people on the farm looked at the tall snow-capped mountain standing in the northeast with expressions of amazement, as if it were melting and collapsing like a block of ice cream.

The entire mountain range deformed at a visible speed, and the shockwaves were transmitted, making it almost impossible for people on the ground to stand. People on the moving urban plate were like ships tossed about in a storm.

The various non-structural buildings on the urban area collapsed one after another like building blocks. Even Rhodes Island's greenhouse collapsed with a roar in the violent tremors, and Kal'tsit's favorite garden was smashed into a mess.

The tremor and the scene were witnessed even by the Ursus soldiers on the outermost edge of the blockade line. The mountain had collapsed, and lava was gushing into the air thousands of meters high like a burst pustule.

"Damn it! We've gone too far!"

"With this power, we've definitely detonated more than one high-purity source jade vein!"

The magma fireball swept across the fields like a torrential downpour, cracking the earth and collapsing mountains. If it hadn't been for the directional blast, releasing its power in the southeast and northwest angles, the farm, being so close, would have been completely overwhelmed by the erupting rocks and magma.

The angled release characteristic gradually extinguished the aftershocks of the explosion, and Xia Lin achieved half of his goal. The mountain that had originally blocked the mine, along with a small part of the mountain range, disappeared, and a lava river formed a lava lake in the southeast direction.

It is expected that a number of precious minerals from the mantle will be washed out, but the bad news is that we must be prepared for volcanic ash in the coming months. Also, because the volcanic ash reflects sunlight, this winter may be colder than usual.

Of course, the worst news is also the best news: the massive amount of Originium reacted and formed a thick, ominous cloud of natural disaster in front of everyone. Then, under the influence of the Arctic cold wave storm, it slowly drifted away in the southeast... away... away.

"May the gods bless the Eastern Kingdom and Lungmen, and Duke Koschke, Amen." Talulah, expressionless, placed her hands on her sword, her forehead against the hilt, and whispered a prayer for the impending disaster. Only when she was serious, praying, or fighting did she appear to have the aura of a leader.

Chapter 100 The Moon Mine is being blown up! Foreman, shout it out!

Chapter 100

The disaster caused by the explosion subsided much faster than expected. After releasing its energy, the Originium entered the next stage and began an energy absorption reaction. While absorbing energy, it formed new Originium blocks together with magma and dust. Hexagonal rock pillars appeared one after another in the gaps that had been completely blasted open in the mountain, and were generated along the magma rivers and lakes.

The planet is like a living organism, and Originium acts like ATP in a living organism, circulating throughout the planet's surface and underground through repeated energy absorption and release, and the resulting series of chemical and physical reactions.

Xia Lin's explosion was like tearing a scar on this living thing. As blood gushed out, Originium and Originium-containing components were frantically generating a chain reaction, causing the magma to cool down at an astonishing speed and form standard solid Originium rock bodies.

The hexagonal rock structure of the solid source rock group was formed only under the rapid cooling of magma eruption. It is a standard igneous rock that can be identified by its shape. In addition to solid source rocks, various metallic substances brought up from the mantle also solidified into large areas and wave-like structures under the rapid cooling like an ice storm, forming razor-like peaks.

It's as if a gushing spring and a rushing river have been frozen into ice blocks in a short time. Igneous rocks and aggregates rich in various metallic minerals display a colorful array of hues, quickly covered with a layer of frost and snow in the cold wind.

Although the lava rivers and lakes had solidified on their surfaces, the volcanic ash in the air turned into hail-like Originium blocks as a result of the Originium reaction, which then rained down on the farm and the surrounding area for hundreds of kilometers.

However, this is only a superficial calm. In reality, beneath this thin metal shell, there is still a flow of scorching magma. Geothermal heat has melted the underground permafrost, heated the soil, and even the irrigation water in the drainage ditches has risen from about 1-2 degrees Celsius to nearly 7 degrees Celsius, and is still rising.

If the temperature doesn't rise above 15 degrees Celsius, it's not a bad thing for agriculture. It means that Xia Lin has a free hot spring irrigation source that can be used for at least a hundred years, and it's rich in minerals and inorganic salts.

There are also negative effects. The melting of large areas of permafrost will cause ground subsidence at random locations and locations, and surface springs may suddenly appear. Near the explosion area, dangerous super-high temperature saturated steam springs may appear because the underground high pressure cannot be released through the "healed" area. It only takes a moment to steam a living person through.

The erupting lava and billowing smoke, along with the steam from snowmelt heated by lava and geothermal heat, enveloped the farm and the surrounding area, ushering in a mild winter that would never happen in Ursus. The milder the winter is now, the more terrifying the cold wave that is about to come will be.

As the magma gradually subsides, the dust reflects sunlight, and ice chamber gases and water vapor continuously gush out from underground, quickly transforming the area into an extremely cold cage.

Fortunately, the entire blast area was a directional explosion. The farm was within the blast radius, and the wing-like mountain blocked the shock wave and most of the scattered debris. Except for some nearby settlements that were ravaged by the fire, the damage in most areas was barely within acceptable limits.

The biggest loss was actually to Xia Lin's surveillance network; most of the fragile surveillance poles were instantly wiped out by the electromagnetic pulse and shock.

Of course, when lava was flowing, black smoke was billowing, and the disaster clouds in the sky looked like a sharp sword piercing the southeast, no one was foolish enough to run this way.
