Chapter 105: Key Materials
"Take away... Warhammer? Peake looked up: "Why do you want to do this?" You all have Ancestral Giants, Warhammer Giants, it doesn't matter to you, does it? ”
"You can take this as a clause of our cooperation, after all, we can only give you enough trust if you really help us and break with Marlai, right?"
Ian sat back in his seat and took a sip from his teacup.
He looked nonchalant, as if it didn't matter if he wanted Warhammer Giant or not, but that wasn't the case.
Warhammer giants, they're going to snatch them.
The power of that giant is related to the most critical machinery in the manufacture of nuclear bombs: the centrifuge.
The process of making a nuclear bomb is actually not complicated, and the real difficulty is the extraction of radioactive materials, which is the most difficult step.
In order to purify enough radioactive elements for chain reaction, they must have centrifuges that meet the strength standard.
This centrifuge can be roughly thought of as a wheeled washing machine, which must be able to rotate day and night, and the speed of rotation can reach more than 20,000 revolutions per minute.
As long as this speed can be maintained for about two years, the radioactive elements in the uranium ore can be extracted in very small amounts by taking advantage of the poor quality.
Build about 10,000 of these centrifuges, find 3,000 tons of uranium ore, and let them work for two years, and you will be able to extract enough material to make a nuclear bomb.
The greater the number of centrifuges and the faster the rotational speed, the faster the nuclear bomb can be made.
However, with their current level of industry, there is no way to efficiently make a nuclear centrifuge.
In fact, in the past two months, a test machine has been made, and the material is the island's unique "black gold bamboo".
When testing the speed, increase the voltage so that it reaches 30,000 revolutions per minute, and its expected life can be used for more than three years.
But just making one consumes a lot of time and manpower and material resources.
Moreover, black gold bamboo is a kind of "plant resource", which is probably the product of some kind of experiment left by the progenitor giant and the ancestor Ymir, it is a very peculiar plant, which can coexist with metal ores and grow naturally, and it can have a strength level close to that of titanium alloy.
In the past, the Survey Corps refined the black gold bamboo to make a three-dimensional mobile device, and the silk thread used for ejection and the blade used to cut the giant were all made of black gold bamboo as a raw material.
However, as a plant, the yield of black gold bamboo is not up to standard, at least not to meet the needs of centrifuges.
With their means, the steel they trained, although stronger than the steel of the outside world, cannot meet the strength of the nuclear centrifuge.
But Ian found a replacement: the Giant's hard shell.
The strength of the hardened shell is completely up to standard, and the centrifuge only needs to be made with a material that is hard enough to resist a speed of 20,000 revolutions per minute without breaking.
The Giant's rigid shell can perfectly resist this strength requirement.
There is no need to worry about electricity, new power plants are being built all the time, and as long as the centrifuges are built, they can use the power of the Ancestral Giants at any time to pull out the super-large giants in the walls to generate electricity, and they can't use it up if they want to.
But again, the problem came that because the strength of this thing was too high, they couldn't do fine processing on it.
As in the past, it was not a big problem to use a hard shell to bond the Navy One, but if you want to make a centrifuge from giant materials, you must make the shell itself with subtle and precise processing.
It's a pity that neither the armored giant nor the giantess have this ability.
The only giants that can perfectly control the hardened are the Warhammer Giants.
So, they had to snatch the Warhammer Giant.
It is best to take advantage of the time when Marais and the Middle East are jointly at war, so that Marais will not have time to attack Paradis Island, and they will go to attack Marais and take away the power of the Warhammer giants.
To do this, the identity of the Warhammer Giant's successor must first be ascertained.
Unlike other giant heirs, the power of the Warhammer Giants has always been in the hands of the Daiba family.
Unlike the other Eldians, the Daiba family is the ruling class of Marais.
The 145th king, 100 years ago, united with the Daiba family, concocted a lie and portrayed the Daiba family as the heroes who liberated Marais.
The Daiba family's international reputation and status in their home country are extremely high.
The identity of the successor of the Warhammer Giants, in the territory of Marais, is classified.
Although Ian remembers some of the original plot, it was the Warhammer Titan Successor a few years later, and he didn't know who the Warhammer Giant Successor was in 850.
Besides, that person only showed a little bit of her face in the anime, her name, residence, range of activities... and a series of other information, all from which I learned that Ian could not have relied on that little bit of picture to run to Marais recklessly.
The goal is only to take away the Warhammer giants, and it is not yet time for war.
Only a very small number of elite mobile units will be sent to Marais, and in order to seal the power of the Warhammer, Alan and Dinah will also need to be on the scene.
Although on the surface, Ian may seem unremarkable, but in reality it is an operation that involves the fate of Paradis Island, whether or not they can build a nuclear bomb.
He must use everything that can be won over and used.
"You can think carefully about whether to choose our side or choose to trust Marlai." Ian's fingers tapped on the table: "There's still a lot of time, if you make a decision, you can come to me at any time." ”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ian, may you allow me to go back to my room and rest first?" Pique's heart was in turmoil.
"Of course." Ian raised his hand and motioned for the soldier to take her back.
Jik remained silent the entire time, his attention focused on Grisha Yeager's notes.
It chronicles Grisha's life, how Jik's father became a Restoration fanatic, and how he inherited Attack on Titan, came to the walls, and formed a new family with the women inside the walls.
Jik read his father's heart, shocked.
The death of his father's sister from the Malais, as well as the acquaintance of his father and mother, are mixed with a great deal of personal feelings and emotions for Grisha.
A soldier wanted to step forward and wake up Jik, who was focused on reading.
Ian stopped the soldier and turned to Mikasa at the door, whispering, "Excuse me, Mikasa, go and call Miss Dinah over." ”
Mikasa nodded and left the office lightly.
Ian sat down, quietly waiting for Jik to go through Grisha's notes while everyone else was quiet.
Jike flipped through the pages of his notes, looking at them carefully until he turned the old yellowed page.
It reads: - I'm sorry, Jike, I've always loved you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't be a good father.
