Chapter 515: Energy Reactor No. 1
The burning of the sanatorium was just a smoke bomb released by Qi Lin, and the No. 1 energy reactor was Qi Lin's key target.
The energy reactor is the most important core facility of a shelter, and if the reactor fails or stops working, the energy supply of the entire shelter will be interrupted, not to mention the problems of power supply and lighting, and even the oxygen transmission line will be paralyzed.
The sanatorium is an empty shell, but the energy reactor will never be abandoned by Cheng Su, and he must ensure that the energy reactor is in normal operation at the last second before the transfer is completed.
If the Cheng family's main house is the brain of Vault 909, then Energy Reactor No. 1 is the heart of Vault 909.
Cheng Su will inevitably leave his henchman in the No. 1 energy reactor, and this henchman definitely has a way to directly contact Cheng Su, and may even know where Cheng Su is.
……
Energy Reactor No. 1 is located in the heavy industrial area of Vault 909, and is the largest single building in Vault 909, the shell of the entire Energy Reactor No. 1 is like a large bowl in the depths of the heavy industrial zone, with a diameter of 475 meters and a height of 83 meters.
From a distance, Energy Reactor No. 1 looks like a giant tortoise dormant in underground space, and it is for this reason that the outer shell of Energy Reactor No. 1 is called "basalt shell" by the people of Vault 909.
Xuanwu, one of the four sacred beasts in ancient Chinese legends, is a huge turtle, and on the body of the turtle is a cyan python and on the shell of the No. 1 energy reactor, there is a metal heat dissipation pipe with a diameter of more than four meters.
However, according to the information provided by Lei Mufeng, this exposed "basalt shell" is only the tip of the iceberg of the entire No. 1 energy reactor, and there is something else under the basalt shell.
In addition to four large nuclear reactors and 12 smaller nuclear reactors, directly below Energy Reactor 1 are three wells ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 meters drilled to extract geothermal energy from deep underground and convert it into electricity for transmission throughout Vault 909.
The No. 1 energy reactor is the product of concentrating all the technical essence of the entire Cheng consortium, but at the same time, it is also a huge time bomb, if Cheng Yanqiu really holds the self-destruct device in his hands, once the No. 909 shelter is blown up and affects the stable state of the No. 1 energy reactor, the consequences are completely unimaginable.
This is equivalent to detonating a hydrogen bomb in a confined space, and not only is it impossible for anyone to survive Vault 909, but even the neighboring shelters will be affected to some extent.
This is the real reason why Cheng Su is so anxious to transfer all his property urgently, if it is just to blow up the shelter, although the thing is buried inside, as long as there is enough time, it can still be dug out slowly, but if the No. 1 energy reactor is detonated, there will really be nothing left.
In the end, all that could be left for Cheng Su was a large pile of ashes with a huge amount of radiation.
……
Qi Lin walked out of the park in a straight line, walked around the edge of the residential area for hundreds of meters, and came to the entrance of the industrial area.
At this time, almost all the factories on the periphery of the industrial area have been emptied, and only those very bulky but worthless instruments and equipment are left in the empty factories.
The factories were deserted, but the main road not far away was bustling with activity, and a large number of equipment and equipment loaded on carrying racks were being transported to the various stations, and the workers and technicians were being evacuated from the industrial area in an orderly manner under the management of the army.
Not only the equipment, but also the skilled workers and technicians who have the knowledge to do so are all valuable assets of the Cheng Foundation, and without them, even if the equipment is safely transported to several other secondary shelters under the Cheng Foundation's name, it will be difficult to rebuild the production line in a short period of time.
The soldiers responsible for escorting the equipment and personnel were scattered on both sides of the main road, with a standby power armor every few hundred meters, and a large number of sniper and machine-gun teams on the commanding heights of the street.
Nominally an escort, but in fact it is more appropriate to understand it as an escort, in which case no one knows how chaotic the situation would have become without a gun pointed at it.
The No. 1 energy reactor is located at the end of the industrial area, and Qi Lin has no need to risk passing under the noses of these soldiers, and passing through the uninhabited factory area can also reach the bottom of the "basalt shell", but it is just a little detour.
Qi Lin was running fast in the empty factory area, although his speed was completely as long as the sprinters in the pre-war Olympics, and every step he took would instantly jump out a few meters away, but in the whole process, there was not the slightest sound of footsteps, he was like a black ghost moving forward at a rapid pace.
Climbing over the two walls, Qi Lin's footsteps finally stopped, an extremely huge factory stopped in front of him, if he wanted to go around, it would take more time, but the door of the factory was open.
Qi Lin rushed in through the gate without thinking about it, like this kind of large factory, in order to facilitate the entry and exit of equipment, there are often several doors, and it can save a lot of time by passing through it directly.
Inside the factory, many rusty shelves fell to the ground, not so much as to transfer equipment as to be looted.
This is supposed to be a metal processing factory, and the 20-meter-tall giant forging press in the middle of the building is difficult to transport, so it is left here, and the operating table of the forging press is affixed with a long seal.
If you need to carry a large instrument like this, you must disassemble it, but time is pressing, and those people simply abandon this giant forging press, anyway, this kind of thing is not a high-end thing, as long as there are enough resources, just build a few more.
It's just that next to the forging press, Qi Lin saw a scene with some spicy eyes, a woman with a cloak with her back to Qi Lin, kneeling on the ground, and in front of her, there was a middle-aged man with a big belly standing up, the middle-aged man's pants faded to the knee, and the woman was shaking her head back and forth very hard. 2k reading web
