Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 618

Chapter 618: Chapter 274 Shockwave Launch_2 Chapter 618: Chapter 274 Shockwave Launch_2 It was for several reasons that Yan Fei decided to build the Super Nuclear Power Station underground. After hearing Yan Fei's plans, Yang Qi didn't quite understand his approach, since constructing a massive Super Nuclear Power Station below ground was very troublesome. It would not only significantly increase the construction workload but also be incredibly dangerous.

Nevertheless, at Yan Fei's insistence, Yang Qi still modified the previous design drawings of the Super Nuclear Power Station to make it more suitable for underground construction. This modification wasn't substantial, involving only changes to the placement of specific equipment, the routing of the transmission cables, and considerations for adding nuclear fuel. Consequently, the revisions were completed quickly and confirmed through the Technology Analysis System.

Like the Artificial Whale, the Super Nuclear Power Station was to operate in automatic mode, managed by Smart Programs, which meant that apart from equipment maintenance and refueling, the nuclear station essentially did not require in-person maintenance. With sensors spread throughout the Super Nuclear Power Station, the Intelligent System continuously monitored the operating status, instantly reporting any anomalies in the plant's operation or issues with internal components to Yan Fei. Then Yan Fei, acting on the Intelligent System's instructions, would troubleshoot the problem or replace the faulty parts.

With this automatic operating program, the Super Nuclear Power Station would always operate securely. Precisely because of this, the station actually didn't require personnel on-site for monitoring, as Yan Fei alone could manage all the work. On the contrary, more workers were needed for the management and maintenance of the substations where the electricity was transmitted outside.

Yan Fei planned to build this Super Nuclear Power Station 100 meters below the reef. The modified design now accommodated Yan Fei's plan, making it suitable for underground operation, and so he began construction according to the underground construction blueprint, officially starting the Super Nuclear Power Station project.

The reef rocks beneath Misty Island were incredibly hard, comparable to steel. Moreover, as the depth increased, the underground rocks became harder still. Yan Fei was very curious about this phenomenon, knowing that while there were some rocks in the world comparable to steel, they were incredibly rare, not ubiquitous like on Misty Island. However, Yan Fei was very busy during this period and had not yet had a chance to investigate the abnormal condition of the rocks in detail.

Under such conditions, one can imagine the difficulty of building a Super Nuclear Power Station 100 meters below ground. It would be impossible for the existing construction teams on Misty Island to accomplish. But this time, Yan Fei had no intention of using the island's construction crews for digging; instead, he decided to excavate the underground nuclear station himself.

After the Upgrade, the Drone had many New Functions, and Yan Fei used almost all of them, except for one in particular–the shockwave. The reason Yan Fei opted to undertake the excavation of the underground nuclear station himself was the confidence this New Function, known as the shockwave, gave him.

After arranging the upcoming work, Yan Fei arrived at the construction site at nine o'clock in the evening. He began summoning the Drone from the seabed. The Drone silently flew to the construction site and then landed. Yan Fei entered the Drone Cockpit and switched the Drone to underground burrowing mode. The Drone rapidly transformed into a shape suitable for underground traversal. Then, under Yan Fei's control, it started drilling into the rock.

The massive Drill Bit at the Drone's head spun at High Speed, and a cascade of debris erupted. Though the underground reef was hard, it could not withstand the Drill Bit's rotation and was quickly penetrated, creating a substantial hole. Then the Drone's tracks began to move, pushing the enormous Drone body through the hole and burrowing deeper underground. Soon, all that was left on the surface was a pitch-black hole and some scattered rocks.

After entering underground, where there was no light, everything was pitch-dark. However, Yan Fei promptly turned on the Quantum Radar to constantly gauge the nearby geological conditions and guide the Drone forward like a flashlight. The pressure underground was immense, with the Drone constantly bearing the tremendous force from all directions. But luckily, Energy Points could counteract this pressure, allowing the Drone to travel unimpeded underground.

The subterranean rocks were incredibly hard, and they became even harder the deeper one went, so the Drone's underground burrowing speed was very slow. An hour later, it finally reached a depth of 100 meters. Once there, the Drone halted its advance and used the enhanced scanning capability of the Quantum Radar to conduct a detailed survey of the Terrain, quickly mastering the geological conditions within a 100-meter radius.

This area's underground was entirely composed of rock, hard and uniform throughout, with no other types of rocks present. Yan Fei found this very strange. This rock was unlike any he had seen before, and there was no description of it in the Auxiliary Brain's Database. Yet its hardness far exceeded all known rocks to him. Most importantly, these rocks were incredibly dense with no impurities, holes, or cracks, solidly consisting of this hard rock.
