Chapter 516 Nuclear Fission and Hovercraft

Why can Jack be 99% sure that the person chasing them is Susan Forrest from fifty years ago just by looking at the information of the hovercraft and the woman?

This has to mention the special nature of the hovercraft: in the city, the hovercraft is a vehicle exclusively for the rich with super strict control and low control cost.

Those who can drive or ride the hovercraft over the city are basically rich or noble, and the rest are special armed forces such as the terrorist mobile team or the company-

The unrecognized illegal hovercraft appears in the city, which is conspicuous and fragile, and can be shot down with just a few missiles.

So being able to use a hovercraft is a symbol of social power, especially a private hovercraft.

How can you believe that a person with such status would drive a hovercraft to perform a life-threatening mission?

So Susan Forrest is indeed special. This super lone wolf is the only one of her peers who is loyal to the new US federal government. Because of her efficient work efficiency and unique choice, the federal government directly rewarded her with a hovercraft.

In addition to the reward, in a special mission like today, when it is inconvenient for her to drive the military-tech hovercraft to chase the target, she will drive her own hovercraft to perform the mission. To the outside world, this is a private matter.

There is only one lone wolf who drives a hovercraft to perform missions in the American continent in the past few decades, Susan Frist.

The vector engine technology of the hovercraft does have a threshold, but this threshold is far less than the social threshold that guarantees its appearance in society. Considering such a threshold, many car manufacturing companies will choose to give up investing a lot of money in the research and development of vector engines and give up the development of their own hovercraft.

After all, the number of rich people is limited, and the hovercraft market is not vast. The first car manufacturers can easily use these advantages to achieve a monopoly.

However, the criminals on the run will not consider these things-

What is an international wanted criminal?

Ka--

Jack's big hand supported the Castekai hovercraft, and V stood on the side wall of the hovercraft and forcefully pried open the iron plate cut by the mantis knife.

The octopus arm carefully pulled off the entire chassis of the hovercraft.

This is the foundation of the Castekai hovercraft.

[Muramasa: Casterkai is a civilian levitation car. Magnetic levitation is a sophisticated civilian-grade floating technology that uses superconducting coils to generate a super-strong magnetic field, which interacts with the geomagnetic field to offset gravity. ]

[Muramasa: It is more comfortable, but obviously lacks risk resistance. Casterkai relies on vector engines for high-speed movement. ]

Then the octopus arm removed four vector engines, which were much smaller than those of the Scorpion Tailed Lion. Each engine was connected in series by two sets of thrusters.

The shell of Barley has been completely cut and disassembled. The octopus arm temporarily welded and fixed it, fixed the engine and propulsion fuel tank to the car, and started wiring at the same time.

[Muramasa: Compared with military-grade floating cars, its vector engine is smaller and the body is lighter, but this is obviously an enhanced version. ]

[Muramasa: One is broken, throw it away. ]

Muramasa's opinion received another opposite suggestion in Lear's head-

Dr. Toombs, the inventor of the Vulture Engine from the Marvel world, was woken up by Lear in the middle of the night, and then he could not fall asleep again.

[Tooms: Good stuff, a little damaged. If it's in the situation you described, you can still consider a simple repair and use it as an emergency propulsion device. ]

So Lear knocked the engine twice in front of Muramasa, cut open the chassis of the car, and welded this thing to the chassis.

[Muramasa: I won't stop you if you want to die. Remember to throw out my processor core if the plane crashes. ]

[Lear: Continue, the superconducting coil is damaged, how to repair it? ]

[Muramasa: It can't be repaired, just make a simple seal, you'd better hope that the heat pump can keep the temperature at the working temperature. ]

[Muramasa: It's a bit troublesome, the working condition is very unstable, I think you don't have enough fuel. ]

The earth's magnetic field is very weak, so if you want to fly by magnetic levitation, you have to create a very strong magnetic field.

If the coil is not a superconductor, creating this level of magnetic field will use up the electricity of an entire factory, with a huge coil group. Superconductors need certain external conditions to maintain their superconducting state. If the working conditions are unstable, it means that the anti-gravity created by the magnetic field is unstable, and the circuit energy consumption is like riding a roller coaster. The vector engines must run at full speed at all times to ensure that they will not fall due to the strong and weak magnetic fields.

However, even the vector engines only have three usable ones left.

The remaining hydrogen-ethanol 2 mixed fuel may not be enough to support them to fly out of Watson District.

However, Lear has always been good at assembling equipment with garbage, and now he has not all garbage in his hands--

In another world, the nuclear industry is thriving.

Muramasa had just finished speaking when he saw Lear put on gloves and put his hand into his pocket--

Then he took out a thing. A thing that caused physical hysteresis in its AI thinking:

A 40-centimeter-long highly enriched uranium-235 fuel rod.

The physical hysteresis is because the radioactivity interferes with the sensor's acquisition of external data, but it is indeed beyond its understanding.

[Muramasa:? 】

"Use 90% enriched uranium for energy."

When they reached the familiar territory of Lille, the octopus arms began to dismantle the graphene batteries scattered all over Barley's body, as well as the Croni titanium armor plates.

1.5 kg of 90% enriched uranium is obviously still at a safe level, and the nuclear reaction is not very rapid.

But if we control the external conditions and add a neutron reflector, it is possible to make it enter a subcritical or even critical state and turn it into a high-power nuclear battery——

What Lille needs is an excellent neutron reflector and a shell.

Remove the battery material. Graphene itself is a very good reflective material. As a titanium-based metal, crotonite also has very good mechanical strength and resistance to radiation damage.

Lille directly cut off the internal structure of the graphene battery with tools, threw away the core with battery material, left the pure graphene shell, and carefully covered the outer layer of the fuel rod to complete the fixation.

The little octopus simultaneously picked up one piece of crotonite armor plate after another and put it in the position of the carriage to create a hemispherical core.

The sound of the assembly was grunting, as if knocking on Muramasa's processor.

What happened was already somewhat illogical. Even for it, an AI that has lived for decades, seen countless data, and has been trained in hundreds of battles, it also

Some of its eyes were black.

Nuclear fuel, who can't see it!

Nuclear fission battery? It's really awesome. This is the first time it has seen someone trying to make this thing.

However, Muramasa was not confused by these, but how could you take out a uranium enriched fuel rod that is close to weapon grade from your pocket!

You were a clean person just now, and the radiation value was completely normal!

Muramasa, Dr. Toombs and Lille, one is familiar with local technology, one is familiar with mechanical design, and one is familiar with nuclear technology. Time is short, and only this lineup can temporarily convert Barley into a hovercraft.

The line was connected by the little octopus. Lille looked at the fuel rod in his hand and shook his head slightly-

Jack and V must not know the value of this thing.

But Lille was quite emotional and felt it was very wonderful.

This is the first batch of nuclear fuel with a concentration level of more than 90% produced by the Atlas Group and the African Union day and night, costing more than two million US dollars.

In another world, the robot controlled by Lille took this souvenir from the warehouse, completed the cross-dimensional transmission, and put it back in the collection cabinet.

[Cross-dimensional material transmission]

[Technology points -1500]

[Current technology points: 20000]

This thing will be transported to the Mineral Museum of the African Union for collection.

There is a sentence written on the cabinet:

"Pay tribute to the sacrifices of the past and welcome the prosperity of the future-may we no longer pay the price of our lives for backwardness."

"What a good writing."

Lille inserted the fuel rod into the core, and the little octopus covered the last baffle to seal the fuel rod inside-

The temperature of the nuclear battery began to rise, and the radiation and temperature began to increase.

The engine roared!

"Okay, get ready to fight the violent terrorist mobile team."
