Chapter 145: A Small Gift

Tony had already done a lot of research around when he was building the Venus base. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info conducted a detailed investigation within a radius of 50 kilometers through various address devices. It was determined that the surrounding geology was suitable for the establishment of this base.

The person who assisted him in this was Dr. Hank, the Beast. After all, Tony also has a lot to do on Earth, and he can't hide on Venus every day without showing up, and if he doesn't show up often, I'm afraid Peppard will go crazy and look for him everywhere.

So in addition to Tony, Hank is the one who has done the most in the Venus base. There is no way around it. Because Professor Charles's legs are inconvenient, and Captain Lee Kit and Captain Rogers are almost illiterate in front of Tony and Hank's various scientific data.

Therefore, professional things can only be left to professional people.

There are a number of mines scattered within a 50-kilometer radius, which is the main reason why Tony and Hank chose the location of their base.

The first is that we can't always rely on the earth to transport raw materials in the future, which not only requires a lot of money, but also attracts attention over time.

The second is because Li Jie's follow-up plan requires a large number of various materials. If these materials are all made on the earth, it is estimated that the entire ecology of the earth will be destroyed.

For Li Jie and Tony, Earth is an irreplaceable and important planet, and it is not advisable to destroy the region, and can only directly transform Venus into a large mine and build a base.

As for building most of the buildings underground, it is because Venus will rain acid rain from time to time, and this acid rain is very corrosive. If you build too many buildings on the surface, you will need to do a lot of preparation to prevent acid rain from damaging the base.

And that's going to be a very huge expense. Before the Dawning Company could make huge profits, the current funds were all coming from Tony's private pockets. You can't let Tony be burdened with so much money all the time.

The entire Venus base is under the design of Tony and Hank, and there are actually not many surface buildings. There are only a few small houses that are not assuming.

Through these small houses that have been specially embalmed, you will come to an open and movable floor semi-underground. This will be the preparation layer of the entire base. There is currently a large amount of building materials piled up here. When the entire base is completed, it will be used as an entrance and an apron.

The second floor is the best of the buildings that have been built so far, and is mainly used as a meeting and living area for the members of the Illuminati. With Tony's character, he is even preparing to build a swimming pool and a garden that relies on artificial light to set the mood so as not to feel lifeless on Venus.

The third level begins on the equipment level, which provides the life support system and energy supply system for the entire base. And there's also a backup library of smart AI Jarvis.

This allows Jarvis to help the members of the Illuminati on Venus with all sorts of complex calculations and data flows. Even Jack Lee and Captain Rogers, who don't know much about some complex sciences, can instantly master and learn the various facilities in this high-tech base through Jarvis.

Further down the fourth floor is a smart manufacturing factory. There is also a similar factory in Tony's house, which is used to make steel armor.

He was able to create a huge army of steel in a short period of time, and it was entirely by this kind of fully automated, factory-only work. He only needs to enter the corresponding command parameters and some key data, and Jarvis will manage the entire factory automatically.

Relying on robotic arms and various other intelligent robots to help Tony build various high-tech devices in a short period of time.

And this intelligent manufacturing factory in the Venus base is much larger than Tony's manufacturing factory under the villa in Los Angeles, because there are some big equipment to be made here in the future. It's not as simple as a few steel armors.

The fourth floor is still under construction, and in addition to the infrastructure, other buildings are still working overtime to rush to manufacture. If this factory is also manufactured, it will help produce other steel engineering mechs as soon as possible.

However, the remaining mechs can lower the design standard a little bit if they don't need to go to the surface of Venus to work. This will ease the pressure on capital and raw materials.

In addition to the Venus base that is still under construction, another more important place on Venus is the mine on Venus.

Arguably, this is the most important reason why Tony and Li Jie chose to build a base on a planet other than Earth. They need a huge amount of minerals!

Except for some mineral deposits that have been discovered and mined within a radius of 50 kilometers. Tony also built a large number of medium molecule detectors, so that these little things began to scan the surface of Venus one by one.

If Tony did this on Earth, he would probably be arrested by the governments of the world. Because the devil knows what the governments are hiding beneath their ground.

On Venus, there is no such concern, and Tony can use the Medium Molecule Detector to scan the mining area of Venus well. Mining in Venus can be a little more simple and crude, because there is no need to consider the ecological environment, and there is no need to pay taxes to the government or anything.

Just be careful not to damage the fracture zones in the basement and mantle of Venus.

Tony took Grade Lee, Rogers and Professor Charles as they walked and introduced the situation of the Venus base. As for Hank, he doesn't need Tony to give a briefing, after all, he's an important participant.

"It can be said that if there is a situation of xenoinvasion in the event of a foreign species. The Venus base will be the second line of insurance for humanity. We can even be more arrogant and say that this will be the most important strategic base for humanity in the face of an extraterrestrial crisis!" Tony led the group to the conference room of the Venus base.

The furnishings of the conference room are similar to those of the common conference rooms on the earth, and there is not much difference, and it seems that it is designed to meet everyone's usage habits.

Everyone took their seats at the round conference table. Tony continued to explain the Venus base: "We're going to set the initial armament here. A variety of weapons that may be mounted. ”

"Doesn't the government really need to say hello?" Captain Rogers said with his hands on his chest, still a little hesitant. After all, what the Illuminati have to do now is to form an armed force of their own beyond Earth.

"One person is smart, but a group of people is stupid. In place of Tony, Li Jie said to Captain Rogers: "Captain, I believe you should not forget the panic caused by the 1938 radio drama "War of the Worlds" in the United States. (Note)"

"And isn't it because we don't trust politicians because we are afraid that they will use all sorts of things that should be important to turn things for their own personal gain. This kind of thing, captain, you should have seen it repeatedly. ”

Rogers had indeed seen it many times, so he didn't speak out against it in the end. I just mentioned that the government just habitually said it.

The five-member team of the Illuminati roughly reviewed the construction progress of the Venus base, and determined that the Illuminati will lead humanity and fight against various xenomorph invasions as its main goal in the future.

The brief trip to Venus for the Illuminating Congregation is over. When Tony sent everyone back one by one, Li Jie deliberately stayed at the end. He had something to say to Tony.

And Tony also cooperated with Li Jie tacitly, until after sending the last person away. Tony turned his head to look at Li Jie: "What crazy plan are you going to talk about?"

Li Jie said with a smile: "This time it is not a crazy plan, but a small gift for you." Li Jie took out a large stack of mobile hard drives from the space belt. It's all the kind with 2TB of RAM space.

Tony looked at the large pile of hard drives that Li Jie took out and raised his eyebrows: "What are these? Do you want to tell me, you know that I have been treated more strictly by Peppon recently, so you sent me more than ten tons of seeds?"

"No, where do you want to go? I have no interest in your private life. Li Jie waved his hand: "This is a real gift, for you, and for all of us earthlings." This is a must-have for us to travel the sea of stars!"

Li Jie's expression was very serious, and he said word by word: "Because this is the blueprint for the construction of an entire starfleet!"

Note: In 1938, CBS broadcast the science fiction novel "War of the Worlds", which jumped into the news broadcast band at that time because of the frequency band problem. So the newscasters across the United States heard the news: Aliens have taken Washington, D.C., and they're heading for the East Coast!

This is a news clip from a novel, but it is considered real news by radio listeners across the United States. So countless Americans rushed out of their homes and headed for the West Coast with everything they could take with them, and they were fleeing the East Coast.

It is also one of the most famous fake news events in history.
