Chapter 930: Chapter 377 New Sources of Wealth_3 Chapter 930: Chapter 377 New Sources of Wealth_3 Yang Qi said, “Let's assume that there is a special device capable of transforming the Chaotic Power that your Spiritual Power can perceive. The transformed Energy not only permeates the sky above us but also infiltrates deep underground through the bedrock. That is why we see the White Mist constantly enveloping the sky, and this mist significantly affects the climate of Dream Island. What do you think of my speculation?”

Yan Fei said, “That's possible.”

Yang Qi continued, “Regarding the rocks underneath Dream Island, it is possible that in the past, they were not this kind of hard rock but various other scattered rocks. However, under the influence of the Mysterious Energy, these rocks gradually congregated and assimilated, eventually becoming identical. This is also why this territorial waters kept sinking, and there are no caves or crevices underground. The rocks become harder the deeper they are because they are at different depths and absorb varying amounts of Mysterious Energy. The more Mysterious Energy they absorb, the harder they become.”

Yan Fei was somewhat stunned but felt that Yang Qi's explanation made a lot of sense; he couldn't refute it at all.

Yang Qi added, “It's due to the absorption of that kind of Mysterious Energy that Dream Island is so conducive to the growth of plants and animals. Even the rocks underground have the ability to enhance the strength and hardness of cement because they have stored Mysterious Energy.”

Yan Fei then understood that Yang Qi was providing a scientific explanation for the miraculous effects of the underground rocks through a series of rigorous scientific justifications in response to his previous question.

But Yang Qi hadn't finished his argument and continued, “The top layer of the rock, absorbing less Mysterious Energy, is the least hard; but as the depth of the rock underground increases, it absorbs more Mysterious Energy and thus becomes harder and harder.”

“Our laboratory has conducted various experiments and found that the rocks closer to the surface don't do much to enhance the strength of cement, only achieving the hardness and strength of the strongest ordinary cement; however, the rocks closer to the bottom significantly enhance the strength of cement, even reaching the level of Titanium Alloy. The cement stone tablet from before was made using rocks from 100 meters underground. If you can bring me rocks from the deepest part that we can reach, I might even be able to create the hardest Items in the world for you. Essentially, it is the Mysterious Energy that enhances the strength and hardness of the Steel Concrete.”

“Therefore, I can deduce that there must be a device capable of transforming Mysterious Power deep underneath our Dream Island. This is also consistent with the observation that the White Mist in the sky of Dream Island contains the least amount of Mysterious Energy, which gradually increases with the depth of the rocks.”

Yan Fei didn't expect Yang Qi to speculate the existence of a mysterious device beneath Dream Island. Unfortunately, because the bedrock was so hard, Yan Fei had not thoroughly explored the underground of Dream Island; otherwise, he might have already discovered whether such a mysterious transformation device exists. However, Yan Fei had decided that in the coming days, he would investigate the situation underground, and then he would know whether Yang Qi's conjecture was correct.

Then Yan Fei thought of a question and asked, “Since the rocks enhance various properties of cement due to the Mysterious Energy they have absorbed, can the Mysterious Energy in the rocks suddenly disappear? If it does, will the items made with cement also collapse?”

Yang Qi replied, “I have analyzed the Mysterious Energy contained within the rocks, and indeed, this Mysterious Energy is gradually dissipating after the rocks leave the underground, but it dissipates very slowly. According to my precise calculations, only five percent of the Mysterious Energy would dissipate in a hundred years. This means that as long as we allow for a certain decline in cement performance, we can ensure that our cement-manufactured components will not have any problems for at least a thousand years.”

Yan Fei was relieved and said, “I understand now, the most precious thing on Dream Island isn't the land beneath our feet but the rocks beneath the surface.”

Yang Qi said, “That's right; the most valuable thing on Dream Island is these rocks. I have already calculated the potential quantity of these Super Rocks underground and found that Dream Island has at least 100 quintillion tons of Super Rocks. A kilogram of Super Rock can produce ten kilograms of Steel Concrete or cement components after being processed, and the strength of these components is comparable to that of steel. In other words, Dream Island's Super Rocks can manufacture 1,000 quintillion tons of concrete buildings as strong as steel.”

Yan Fei had previously seen data stating that the total amount of special ore reserves on Earth was 370 billion tons, and these special ores only had an average iron content of about 30%, so the actual amount of steel was only 100 billion tons. Now, Dream Island alone possesses the ability to manufacture 1,000 quintillion tons of concrete equivalent to steel, meaning that Dream Island alone would exceed the total amount of all steel manufactures in the world by a hundred million times.

Yan Fei was stunned by this data provided by Yang Qi. If Dream Island could lead a global trend by substituting steel with cement concrete and spreading this trend throughout the world, then with its underground rocks, Dream Island could easily become the world's most powerful super Force, capable of performing an Instant Kill on all the mining giants around the globe.

The thought of people using concrete in place of steel gave Yan Fei a slightly strange feeling. However, Yang Qi had already conducted a detailed Technology Analysis with the technology extrapolation system, proving that the concrete made from the underground Super Rocks, once set, was not inferior to steel in physical properties and even surpassed it in some respects, entirely capable of replacing a vast amount of steel use.

At least in City construction, house building, roads, railways, water conservancy facilities, and the national defense industry, Dream Island's Super Rock cement will shine, which will also bring countless new sources of wealth to Dream Island and Yan Fei.
