Chapter 53: Interlude No. 5
On the fourth day of the return from the crossing, the device for returning was finally ready.
To be exact, the experimental prototype has been built a long time ago, but there have been no input parameters, because the traverser has never appeared.
Now that he has obtained Asker's body tissue, through analysis and decoding at the quantum level, he has finally obtained the corresponding parameters.
The parameters are then entered into the transmitter and then commissioned.
Asker was also very excited about this. After all, four days have passed here, which means that four years have passed over there.
Although the life span of a demigod is endless, and a few years is nothing, it is good to be able to go back sooner.
It's better than staying in this underground base all day.
After the equipment was debugged and the transmission coordinates were confirmed, another problem was found:
Not enough energy.
To be exact, to send a 100kg object to the opposite side, the amount of electricity required is around 500,000 kWh.
People who have no concept of electricity resources may not be able to understand the implications. In comparison, S City, the most economically developed city in the country, now (2077) has an average of 1.3 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per minute......
In other words, if you open the gates for half a minute in S City, all the electricity saved is probably enough to send a fat man over.
In fact, even if the gate is pulled, the saved power cannot be stored, so the calculation and scheduling here is very troublesome.
The list of the first batch of transmissions has been determined: Aske (a key figure), Comrade Mao Zhongwei of the security department, Comrade Yu Ziwen of the diplomatic department, and academician Shao Qiangang of the Academy of Sciences.
Originally, bodyguards were arranged, but considering the terrible power consumption, all security personnel could only be removed from the list, and Comrade Asker was responsible for this correspondence.
The total mass of all people is 260kg, and the electricity consumption is about 1.3 million kWh.
Therefore, the above asked the expert group of the power grid to come to discuss, and the expert group of the power grid said after studying that your device is instantaneous power consumption, and the power consumption during the transmission period is simply beyond the sky - according to the current total installed power generation capacity in the country, it is enough to supply two-thirds of the country's power generation to this side.
Two-thirds of the country's power generation is definitely impossible, so how many factories have to pull the gates! So some bigwigs said that I have a secret project here, and the transmission can be suspended on the day of transmission, and the power supply will be temporarily supplied here.
After all, it is a top-secret project, and the electricity consumption must be unclear to the expert group on the power grid side, and you will recalculate it after adding it.
After re-calculating, I found that there were still a lot of gaps to be opened, and then another big guy said that I also have a top-secret project here......
So the big guys, you and I pieced together little by little, and finally blocked the power gap. There is still a little bit left, and then pull the nearest H City, enough!
Of course, such a large instantaneous power supply also has additional requirements for transmission equipment, lines, etc. However, it is now 2077, and all the technical difficulties that seemed impossible to achieve 50 years ago, except for the hard requirements of the power shortage, are not a problem today.
Therefore, the corresponding plan was quickly determined: when it came to scheduling and arrangement, it was decided to carry out several experimental transmissions of small mass objects tomorrow, and of course, H City also had to pull the gate several times, in addition to making up for the power gap required for experimental transmission, it was also to let the citizens of H City get used to it in advance.
If all goes well, the first teleportation of Asker and others will be officially carried out the day after tomorrow.
After so many days of ideological work, Asker finally understood the hardships and dedication of these people, and he was not so resistant to some things.
Look, how difficult is it to send you back? 30 million people in H City are going to have a power outage for you!
What's wrong with you opening a harem for the country?

Planet Helel, 6th Age 251, on the top of the empty Mont Blanc.
Peggy stood in the middle of the snow, watching the snow fall.
Three hours later, she sighed and turned into a bat and flew southeast.
After another half an hour, the huge figure of the bronze dragon emerged from the empty snow.
The dragon's face also showed an anthropomorphic expression of melancholy, and it let out a long sigh, and the blazing dragon's breath melted all the snow on the ground.
Soon, more snowflakes covered again.
Suddenly, an object fell from the sky and fell into the snow.
The bronze dragon sneezed, blowing up the snowdrift in front of it, revealing the metal inside.
It looked like a small car with something on it.
This intricate and complex structure is a product of the Holy See at first glance, but why does it have a taste of another world?
The bronze dragon couldn't figure it out, so he snapped his tail and smashed the car to pieces.

Holy Solomon Empire, Kingdom of Bohemia, outside Prague.
"How's the situation in the city?" Eleanor, who had just arrived here from the Duchy of Lorraine, asked about the situation inside the kingdom's capital.
"The situation is not optimistic, Your Highness." Sir Joel replied, "The Hussites in the city ......"
"Call me Captain." Eleanor said earnestly.
Emperor Otto II of Saxony abdicated last year and was succeeded by his son Otto the Younger, much to the displeasure of many Frankish nobles - both in law and in strength, the princess Sophie, who wielded the indomitable sword, should succeed to the throne.
However, Eleanor herself did not have the will to directly take charge of the empire, and the nobles below who supported her could not forcibly give her a "yellow robe".
On the other hand, Otto Jr. is only 8 years old...... It will definitely not be able to handle government affairs, so the power will inevitably fall. Rather than fall into the hands of the ill-intentioned court nobles, it is better to transfer and transfer within the Saxon family.
Therefore, under the internal coordination of the dragon family, little Otto, who had just ascended the throne, immediately named his sister as the regent of the empire, the Grand Master of the Blade Warriors, and the first sword-bearer under the Iron Throne.
At this point, Eleanor has de facto become the "hypocrisy" of the Holy Solomon Empire, the holder of supreme imperial power. Even if she proposed to sit on the Iron Throne in the next second, everyone in the Grand Palace of Aachen would immediately lift little Otto down and ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to ascend the throne with honor.
However, Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess with an upright character, did not seem to have such intentions, which disappointed many imperial nobles.
Since she gained power, she only transformed the bladed warriors into the "Knights of the Holy Solomon Brothers", with the coat of arms of the black cross on a white background as a symbol, exterminating bandits everywhere in the Duchy of Lorraine, quelling unrest, and suppressing many forces that rebelled during the transfer of power to the emperor.
Because she herself does not kill indiscriminately, and treats noble captives very leniently, coupled with a series of factors such as status, title, family lineage, and the holder of the holy sword, her reputation within the imperial aristocratic collective has risen all the way in recent years, and even far exceeds everyone's evaluation of the previous emperor.
So much so that to this day, there are still many imperial nobles who try to elevate her to the Iron Throne, saying that she must be called "His Royal Highness the Supreme Sword Bearer", which is intended to emphasize the inheritance between her and the previous emperor. However, Eleanor did not like the title and insisted that others call her "Captain".
I don't know where the title of "regimental commander" is better than "His Highness".
