Chapter 345 Resource by-products
"Are the results out?"
Seeing the figure of the secretary ship Lexington, Koji expected that the matter was over.
Sure enough, the wife smiled lightly, and the indescribable pride in her smile also showed that everything was not unexpected.
"The two sisters, Mana Nai and Yutachi, have shot down 34 deep-sea carrier-based aircraft and sunk seven deep-sea enemy ships, and have successfully secured their targets."
Avalon has invested countless resources and efforts in every existing shipwive, and every shipwive in the Blue Sea Mist fleet also has full confidence to deal with any enemy in this world.
Even Lexington himself.
She hasn't officially undergone the Admiral's modern renovation though.
But just my wife's exposure to various modern naval battle concepts these days is enough for her to transcend the entire era of Azure Star.
Army-level battles.
It was nothing like a fight between two strong men waving their fists.
In many cases, a change of perspective can create an example of the defeat of the weak over the strong.
"Hmmm......"
The Admiral, who had put down what he was doing, did not have much joy on his face.
It is inevitable that the Blue Sea Mist Fleet, equipped with modern means of attack, will completely defeat the backward deep-sea fleet.
This is also the reason why Koji is not happy, on the surface he doesn't want to show his strength too much in front of outsiders.
"Darling, sometimes it's better for us to let people look a little bit past, and I believe that after this incident, people outside will no longer talk about us in Avalon." Mrs. said.
The Admiral glanced up at the secretary ship.
Lexington was unhappy with the comments made by the outsiders about the Avalon Guard.
Is Amanda's defense a big one?
Inevitably, it shook the entire Cursed Sea.
Even the Imperial Palace and the Northern Governor paid attention to the Amanda Garrison.
However, it would be trivial to compare the deep-sea fleet that Amanda faced with the deep-sea fleet during the previous defensive battle of Avalon.
Forehead......
It's a bit of an exaggeration.
It should be said that the scale of the Avalon defense war was even more terrifying than this.
The Amanda Town Defense Battle alarmed the two parents of the European Emperor's Mansion and the Governor's Palace, and the Avalon Defense War was silent and tossed and tossed, and then I felt that other people's comparisons were more effective?
Avalon was faced with a deep-sea fleet of more than 150 ships.
How much is Amanda guarding the house?
Is there a hundred?
No!
It was enough to scare a lot of people in the deep sea.
The pressure on combat power should be counted, and the bonus of the deep sea dwelling is not as exaggerated as that of Avalon.
Avalon's defense of Zhan Koji casually overheaded.
Amanda is now crushed to the point of vomiting blood.
But what do people on the outside say about the defense of Avalon?
Koji has already reduced the scale by half, and it is reported that there are only about 50 ships in the deep sea.
However, they still don't want to believe that the real data has to be eliminated three layers.
Amanda guards dozens of warships.
Avalon is the Blue Sea Mist Fleet's existing three main forces and six expelled nine ships.
So they don't believe that Avalon's rhetoric is understandable, but it doesn't mean that Lexington, who has survived that battle himself, can accept it.
In the defensive battle of Avalon, all the ships of the Blue Sea Mist fleet, including Lexington, fought for dozens of hours in a row, and almost every hour, a deep-sea battleship was sunk by artillery fire.
The ship girls gritted their teeth and fought to the end, so it can be said that they all reached the point of incompleteness.
If it weren't for the Admiral's preparation to open his golden finger and work hard to vomit blood and fill the ship's girls, Avalon wouldn't even be able to survive today.
Lexington couldn't understand why Lord Admiral had such merits, but he chose to hide himself from others, even if he heard the rumors outside.
It's a good thing to be clumsy.
But if you overdo it, you don't have the ability.
Lexington couldn't see her darling being named and slandered.
"You, you don't have to fight with everyone for a name." The Admiral opened his hands and hugged the secretary as if he were in his arms, and said with a smile.
"This is not a false name but an honor, and you have to fight for your sisters if you don't want more." Obediently holding himself in the arms of the Admiral, Lexington wrinkled his little nose and snorted.
Koji stretched out his hand to tease and tease the secretary ship Xiao Yaobi.
"The world is so big, can you explain it to everyone, or do you make a propaganda video and spread it all over the Federation?"
"We know it ourselves, the European Emperor's Mansion knows, and the people around us who pay attention to us know it."
"The one who stands on our opposite...... Will also know. ”
Lord Admiral said with a smile.
"Humph!"
Mrs. will never be able to talk about this matter, Admiral.
This man belongs to the standard kind of Tian genre of housekeepers.
Fame and honor have never been as important in his eyes as letting his ship's wife get a good night's sleep.
"Yu is now glad that the big ship girls didn't hand over the Ou Huangfu to Darling at the beginning, and if you really hand over the Darling, you have to be played and collapsed."
"Haha, it's obvious that your family has made a mess of the Emperor's Mansion from the beginning, one is that I know that I can't play it, and the other is that I can't look down on it, and I haven't tossed it yet."
Lord Admiral's gaze fell on the hedron on the table.
It was a fist-sized royal blue lens, an appendage of the four resource points mined by Avalon.
This is not the first such crystal gemstone in Hao's second hand, and it should be said that calling it a gemstone is not in line with its actual function.
To put it bluntly, the resource point is actually an offshore ore field, which is a mineral that is different from conventional minerals.
To be exact, it is a coral island-like existence.
The depth of the ocean water of the Azure Star is huge.
The depth of the submarine canyon can reach thousands or even tens of thousands of meters.
But more than 1,000 meters of seabed great plain terrain.
There are also some submarine plateaus of several hundred meters.
The vast shallow sea area has created a blue star sea with rich biological resources.
These deep-sea polluted black seawater contains a large amount of nano-krypton gold elements, and these nanocrystals will condense into resource matter under certain conditions.
Different from the decomposition of the resources from the pollution source, the specific gravity and other factors cause these resources to precipitate in the seawater, and eventually accumulate more and more to form a coral island that grows on its own.
When the minerals condensed into the resource extend out of the water surface to form an island structure, it is a resource point in the conventional sense.
Such resource points abound on the surface of the Azure Star Sea, and if you draw a circle on the chart, maybe a dozen of the 100 reef islands will be formed in this way.
It's a big proportion, isn't it?
But not all resource reefs can be exploited.
First of all, the content of minerals, some resource islands are naturally high, and some are mixed with too much waste residue in the process of precipitation to have no value.
In general, resource points are common in Azure Star and are very difficult to mine.
It is nothing more than mining resource ore and smelting resource quality.
To put it bluntly, it is to dig up all the dirt and pour it into the furnace to refine it, and then pour out the waste residue.
This is the first step of the process, the higher the content of the resource point, the lower the difficulty of mining, and the more the resource quality can be smelted.
After obtaining the resource quality, the fairy factories will carry out deep refining, and finally form various types of resource blocks that can be used, which can be eaten by the ship girls or used by the federal industry.
Resource points are self-growing.
Finding a large, well-conditioned resource site can guarantee a mining life of tens or hundreds of years in the future.
With such convenient planetary resources, it is no wonder that the Azure Star humans have completely abandoned the materials buried deep in the earth on land and set their sights entirely on the sea.
Avalon is no choice.
Koji could only obtain the materials needed for development from the sea.
Even the smelted soil and waste residue from the resource point need to be transported to Avalon to transform the geology of the town guard.
Avalon has mined four resource sites, and so far has unearthed three spars that resemble the gem in front of Koji.
This is only found, and there may not be any that has been dumped along with the waste residue.
What is it for?
Gemstones are just beautiful colored stones until they are discovered.
Later it was called gemstones, which were also hyped as expensive luxury goods because of their rarity, but they also had no practical use.
Coal was even regarded as an ominous object at first, and if it was accidentally dug up, it had to be buried by the gods and Buddhas.
Similar to coal mines is oil.
When it was first discovered that oil seeped out of the surface and flowed all over the ground, it was definitely a big deal.
Not happy.
It's terrifying.
Black oil flows on the earth, and it is seen as Mother Earth bleeding.
With the progress of human civilization, the vision of the world has also been changed again and again.
But are gemstones really just beautiful?
Just like gold is more of a measure of monetary value?
Is coal and oil really just the complex chemistry of the planet's forests buried in the ground hundreds of thousands of years ago?
No.
Gemstones are good, too.
Other rare substances are no different.
To put it bluntly, they are all substances born of some extremely harsh conditions in nature.
Modern technology has begun to make more and more use of these natural elements, and gold is increasingly used in cutting-edge technology in addition to its monetary value.
Coal and oil have become the biggest sources of resources to promote human development, and the human race in the original world is almost exhausted by the two resources in the ground and shouting that the end is coming.
So when he heard that the gem was mined at the resource point, Koji was very curious.
The three gems of different colors were collected by the elves and sent to the Admiral's office.
Koji asked Lexington and the head maid, and the two shipwives said that it was a common situation for the resource to be mined with this kind of spars, similar to the rare associated ores mined in copper veins.
But people's associated mines are rare materials that are hard to come by.
And this rumor is that the ultra-high-density content of the spar is completely polarized, and it is rated as useless.
Because neither human means nor fairy technology can use it.
What can't be used is naturally worthless.
It is discarded.
Yes, you read that right.
More often than not, these hedrons are thrown directly into the sea.
Naturally, there are one or even many resource points that can be mined from resource points, and they are all masters who don't care about money.
The yield of spar is not low, but it is not like a potato, a pickaxe will go down to give you a nest, there is no fundamental foundation, this thing is still very rare.
It's a pity that no matter how rare it is, it's useless, the federal humans guard a large area of the sea in the four major theaters, and countless admirals and ship girls guard countless resource points, and even diamonds have been flooded after hundreds of years of accumulation.
(In fact, there is a lot of diamond production, and it's not a rare thing to find in the market.)
In the past, in order to ensure the rarity of diamonds, many melee diamonds were simply buried on the spot and were not given to you if they were lost.
Nowadays, more and more diamonds are used in industry, and many diamonds that are less than gem quality have entered the factory and are used by modern technology. )
In the past, there were still admirals who took this thing as a rarity, and the Federation also issued some laws to recover these hedrons from the admirals' hands, but after so many years, it has been unusable, and it has gradually been forgotten.
Can't even do the most basic decomposition and polishing, is it possible that you still put the whole thing on display?
How dare you touch it......
These fist-sized gems will explode for you to see!
Wow~ It's going to explode, it's a good thing, if you can't make a gem, then you can't make a bomb.
You think no one thought about it?
The explosion of this thing was so powerful that it could be called terrifying, and it could be called a mourning disease.
But you have to add a "but", because it's not something that you just rub twice and explode, and it's not something that blows up for you.
As the saying goes, if you want to do nothing, you will find that you have unconsciously walked into a dead end.
The price you pay is greater than the value of its explosion.
With that effort, I could have done what I wanted with other things, why do I beg you for this thing.
In the end, even the army, which grandma didn't love and uncle didn't love, gave up these spars, and it really became a collection for the admirals to toss around.
The Federation also lowered the price to a point where even the Admirals didn't bother to toss after acquiring a large number of hedrons, and then completely faded out of human sight.
But do you say that there are so many of them, that they are overflowing?
That's not either.
In fact, it's so scarce that you can't find it when you want it.
Because they will explode, and if they will explode, they are dangerous, and if they are dangerous, they should be disposed of.
In the past, a warehouse in the Federation where the hedron was stored was completely blown into a sinkhole.
After hearing about the situation at that time, the first thing that came to Koji's mind was the mushroom bomb.
It's so terrifying, it's still bombed in your own backyard.
That explosion cost the Federation untold amounts.
Since then, all the hedrons collected have been manually detonated with great effort.
You see, the Federation has to spend money and effort to destroy the hedron from the Admirals and get it back.
Why did that person give you a lot of money, no?
The Admirals had to discard the hedron as soon as they collected it themselves.
And he didn't dare to lose all a place, for fear of blowing up and overturning half of the sky in the town's guard's mansion.
Historically, there were not just one or two Admirals and Townsmen killed by this thing.
You don't want it to blow up, you don't want it to blow up, maybe one day it will blow it up for you.
When Lexington heard that Koji had collected this hedron, his wife was so frightened that she almost demolished the Admiral's house.
But Koji told you that the "Lancelot" satellite used a piece of this spar, do you believe it?
