"The energy of the corona alone is incredible, and one such perseverance energy harvesting platform can provide 10 million life energy in a year, so what if we build millions of such platforms? This is much more powerful than a nuclear power plant, and one such platform can be more powerful than the energy harvesting rate of hundreds of nuclear power plants. Chu Heng said with his eyes shining.

"Yes master, this plan has great benefits but also great difficulties, so it is not as simple as imagined, and the difficulties are recorded here, master, you can take a look." Kai Ruigan specifically pointed out the difficulties about the Prometheus plan and handed it to Chu Heng.

The appearance is not long, but the more Chu Heng looks at it, the more his brows are furrowed, and it is really not as simple as he imagined.

The so-called stellar energy harvesting platform is to build dozens of energy harvesting nodes around the star, the depth of the collection is the edge of the corona, and the temperature is expected to be 50 to 1 million degrees, from which many problems can be seen. First of all, some stars are not as calm as they appear on the surface, and stellar flares or stellar storms may break out at any time, and once this happens, the temperature of the corona is likely to rise several times or even more than ten times in an instant.

At present, the platform construction material proposed by the scientist of the Raqa people known as Mark in the Prometheus project is a material called C7 super-composite hard steel, which is 0.9 times harder than ordinary hard steel and 700 times more heat-resistant than ordinary hard steel, which can maintain a solid form at a high temperature of 1.2 million degrees and maintain internal structural integrity within 1 million degrees.

In other words, once a stellar storm and stellar flare occur in this material, it is possible to stop directly, and most of the other components of the platform are under the protection of this material. If even the C7 super-bonded steel can't withstand the temperature of the star, then the entire platform will be destroyed.

In addition, the radiation resistance and cosmic ray resistance of the equipment is also extremely limited, once there are stellar flares and stellar storms, it is not just a matter of high temperature, and the various rays that follow are the natural enemies of scientific and technological civilization circuit equipment.

The solution is to find relatively stable stars as the objects of the platform. In this way, it is impossible for Chu Heng to establish a platform for millions or even tens of millions of stellar energy harvesting, because the range of stars that meet the establishment of the platform will be greatly reduced, according to the current number of stars in the area controlled by the Zerg, the number of stars in the area controlled by the Zerg should be about 40 million, excluding some stars that cannot be approached and used, there are only 10 million, and excluding those that do not meet the requirements, then the number of stars observed so far will not exceed 100,000.

Moreover, these 100,000 are not the final results of specific exploration, but only a preliminary judgment based on long-distance observation and some data recorded by the Academy of Cosmological Sciences. It is expected that no more than 40,000 will actually be eligible.

In addition, this kind of energy harvesting platform has never been built, so it only exists in scientific theories, although with their level of technology, there is no problem in establishing such a stellar energy harvesting platform in theory, but once it is implemented, there will definitely be some big and small problems, and it will need to be built while exploring. In addition, such a project is also an extremely large project, so the time required can be said to be almost incalculable.

"It would be nice if the researchers could create a Zerg unit that drills directly into the stars to draw energy......" Chu Heng put the materials back on the table and said with a sigh.

"With the current Zerg technology, it is almost impossible to create an organism that can withstand millions or even tens of millions of degrees of heat, and even if the energy required to create such a creature is realized in the future, it is extremely terrifying, and it is extremely undesirable to use this kind of creature that requires a lot of energy to create to absorb the energy inside the star." Kerrigan actually thinks the same way. Unfortunately, this is not realistic.

Unless Chu Heng can find a quasi-galaxy beast that lives inside the star to extract its genes. Otherwise, it is highly unlikely that this will be accomplished. And the strength of the galaxy beast itself that can inhabit the star is extremely terrifying, not to mention whether it can be found, even if it is found, with the current strength of the zerg, it is not an opponent at all.

At this time, Chu Heng suddenly remembered that there was a specimen room of the Star River Beast in the temple of the Nagnas Clan in the E10 star system, and there were many powerful Star River Beasts that had been captured alive by the Nagnas Clan, including even the terrifying Cosmic Brain Worm. And it just so happens that there is also a terrifying galaxy beast specimen that can stay inside Hengxin all year round and survive by devouring the core of perseverance - the meteorite beast.

The Meteor Beast is a level 29 galaxy beast, with the terrifying strength to sweep away a level 7 civilization by itself, if the Zerg can get its genes, even if it can't hatch because it doesn't have such a huge amount of energy at the moment, but the benefits are many, and the heat-resistant genes are definitely what the Zerg need the most at the moment.

Unfortunately, the temple of the Nagnas is now occupied by that mysterious purple mist. At the beginning, Chu Heng's divine sense clone was almost taken away by him just by looking at him, although his strength was much lower than it is now, but now Chu Heng is still not sure that he can take the terrifying purple mist. However, I don't know if the will of the entire swarm will can defeat it. If you can, then the entire legacy of the Nagnas will be the Zerg, and the development of the Zerg will be faster than when they got part of the genome map of the Nagnas tribe.

"Purple humanoid mist, the powerhouse of the Dragon Imperial Dynasty, the blood of the Immortal Sage, the mysterious sword and armor, and a strange name, Nie Qinglong......" Chu Heng shook his head, took back his flying thoughts again, and began to think about the possibility of the completion of Prometheus' plan.

After studying it carefully for a while, Chu Heng raised his head and said: "The nuclear power plant can continue to be built, although the energy supplied to the Zerg is not much, but no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and expanding the scale of the nuclear power plant can also get more energy, which is much stronger than looking for Tai mineral resources in the vast sea of stars." ”

"Understood, master." Kai Ruigan nodded, now whether it is the Nar Star Domain or the Luoyun Star Domain, the Tai ore production has been increased to the limit, and if you want to speed up again unless you implement destructive mining, this is just a great waste of Thai ore for Thai ore, often a Thai ore resource star containing 5 billion life energy only needs 10 years to be mined under destructive mining, but the Thai ore obtained is only 2 billion life energy, and the rest of the Thai ore is basically wasted.

Normal mining may take 200 years, but it can be mined at least 4.9 billion, and waste up to 100 million scraps.

The income of the Tai mine is the most stable income of the empire at present, and the destructive mining will only kill the most stable income of the Zerg, and if the Zerg cannot find other energy sources in the future, it will only be slowly consumed in the depletion of energy.

"Although the Prometheus project is very difficult, but once it is completed, the benefits will be extremely high, from now on, you can carry out the Prometheus project, select a star to complete the first stellar energy harvesting platform as quickly as possible, once it is proved that the Prometheus project is completed, then the entire empire will fully support the Prometheus project." Chu Heng finally put the Prometheus Project on the table.

Kerrigan asked with some surprise, "Isn't it necessary to convene a court meeting to listen to the opinions of the ministers?" You must know that the amount of work done by Prometheus is rare in the world, and it is a great burden on the common people of the Empire. ”

"Listen to their mother-in-law complain to me? They just need to know what I want them to do, they don't need them to dictate to me. The reason why I still let them rule the intelligent civilization conquered by the Zerg is that I hope they can share my worries for me, not for me to share their worries. Chu Heng said domineeringly.

Chu Heng is not a person who does not listen to advice, but he can mostly guess the pros and cons of the Prometheus plan after it is launched, such a huge project is a great test for many civilizations under the rule of the empire.

However, now that the empire is hardly going to squeeze any benefits from the intelligent beings under its rule, except for collecting energy from the Tai mine and promoting the Cult of Kosmos, what about letting them build a few stellar energy harvesting platforms? You must know that all civilizations under the rule of the empire have cut almost all military expenditures, the construction of new warships has been stopped, and even the active warships that require huge resources to maintain are being demolished, and only a small amount of money is spent to maintain a small number of garrisons, and as the situation stabilizes, the number of garrisons is also plummeting, and the saved manpower and material resources can be invested in the Prometheus plan.

If this still makes the intelligent creatures under his rule make a fuss, then it can only be said that those consuls are too unqualified, and those who should be removed should be demoted, and with the graduation of batches of students from the aristocratic school, the originally unqualified consuls should also give way to their positions, and in the empire, Chu Heng's will represents everything, and any bureaucracy and behavior that destroys the interests of the Zerg cannot exist for a long time.

"You have to keep an eye on the situation at home, don't let some fools spoil the good situation, it stands to reason that the empire has cut almost ninety percent of its military and government expenditures to build a few stellar energy harvesting platforms, but there will always be a few fools who will come out and jump." Chu Heng said to this Kai Ruigan.

"There will definitely be no such situation in the Luo Yun Star Domain, the Great Archon of the Luo Yun Star Domain personally appointed by the master, McGonagall, still has the ability, even if Your Majesty has no confidence in him, doesn't he have confidence in me? However, it is difficult to say about the Nar Star Field, Marpel is too conservative, and Morgana does things without thinking about the consequences...... "Kerrigan is still the same as before, and he will give Morgana eye medicine at every opportunity."

Chu Heng looked at her with a smile and a smile, he knew that this was Kai Ruigan taking the opportunity to take revenge on Morgana, you must know that Morgana did this kind of thing when she was by Chu Heng's side. (To be continued......)
