Release that Witch - Chapter 1023

[Chapter 1003 A New Step]

“Why is your expression so serious?” Nightingale suddenly smiled. “Actually, no matter what you say, I will believe it. But you have to give other people a little time to accept it, otherwise you can slap thousands of people with something the size of a palm.” Wan’s devil turned into fly ash, no one can immediately imagine it, especially after seeing the real thing separated by Lucia.”

“Is there?” Roland touched his cheek, probably considering that human beings are facing a life-and-death race for time, which made him unconsciously feel a sense of crisis, “But you are right, after all, before you have seen it with your own eyes, I don’t even believe it myself.”

He turned around and pinched the inconspicuous “stone flake” in his hands.

This is the beginning of the road to fire – purified uranium metal.

Just relying on a few words, it is indeed difficult for people to associate it with the “thing that strives for brilliance”. The silver-white surface has become dull due to oxidation, and the cold touch has nothing to do with light or heat, but Roland Know that as long as the conditions are right, nature will show its magical scene.

In order to collect it, after the meeting, Lucia and Speer were busy on the north slope mine for almost a week, breaking down the broken granite around the mine.

For this reason, the countess complained quite a bit, thinking that it would be indecent to have her rummage through the pile of rocks, and using this as a reason, she took away five more apprentices from the city hall.

The result is such a small piece.

Compared with the uranium block that was originally used as a sample, this thumb-sized metal uranium is more than 90% pure, and it is divided into two layers under Lucia’s adjustment. One side surface is uranium-235, and the rest is uranium-238. , the composition ratio is 1:99, and this is also the natural ratio of the two in nature.

In other words, the uranium element on the surface of the stone flake, which is less than the thickness of a hair, can already be called “weapon grade”.

As a stable nuclide, whether it is 238, which accounts for the vast majority but is useless, or 235, which can be used to make ultimate weapons, its half-life is measured in billions of years.

Such a long decay period, coupled with the fact that it mainly releases α particles during decay, has a range of only tens of microns in human tissue, and cannot even penetrate the epidermis. According to damage.

Of course, this does not mean that direct contact with highly enriched uranium is absolutely safe.

After all, some alpha nuclides produced by decay may be highly toxic, and it would be troublesome to stick to your hands and then eat them into your stomach.

Therefore, Roland asked Soraya to wrap a transparent film on the “stone flake”, not only to prevent it from further oxidation, but also to avoid accidents of chemical poisoning.

We must know that most people in this world have not developed the habit of washing hands frequently.

He looked at the things in his palm, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

This piece of metallic uranium containing enormous energy just lay quietly in the palm of the hand. Before it reached the critical point, it looked so peaceful and harmless, almost no different from Fantie. No wonder Pasha and the others couldn’t believe it. up.

Now that this step has been taken, the first task is to collect all the raw materials needed for Qi Brilliant Radiation.

Azima was able to find a sample with much lower purity through the high-concentration uranium coins, at least proving that it is feasible to use it for prospecting.

Although Lucia can get enough uranium-235 by decomposing and aggregating in the mine day after day, but that goes against the original intention of multi-project parallelism.

In the field of high-end metal smelting, she still plays an irreplaceable role.

What’s more, weapons-grade uranium alone can’t make a live ammunition that is really usable-to prevent it from becoming a dirty bomb, Roland needs a truly rare element.

It is usually associated with uranium ore, and its content is only one ten-millionth of the former. Even with the help of Lucia, a large amount of raw ore is needed to solve it.

Anyway, it’s up to Azima to do it next.

Roland put the small piece of metal uranium back into the box, locked the drawer again, and then pulled out an unfinished design drawing of the internal combustion engine from the file on the side, and spread it out on the desktop.

Although most Neverwinter people would go to bed early on a snowy, windy night, for him there was still a lot of work to do.

“Are you going to bed late again today?” Nightingale asked, tilting her head.

He stretched his neck and picked up the quill, “Everyone finally saw hope, so you can’t give up all your previous efforts because of my laziness. For the sake of immortality, it’s nothing to sleep less.”

“Is that so… But it sounds to me that at least half of the words are wrong.”

“Cough—don’t you believe everything I say?”

“But using your ability to confirm your true heart is also your request.” Nightingale stuck out her tongue.

“Okay, okay, I wanted to do this myself, okay?” He said helplessly, “I don’t want to lose to the devil, and the so-called divine will.”

“Well, I’m telling the truth this time. Then I’ll make you a cup of hot tea, and I’ll grab some supper by the way.” Nightingale smiled slightly, “Spiced barbecue, honey mushrooms, fried shrimp with salt and pepper, and refreshing chaotic drinks, How about getting some from the kitchen?”

Hey, you want to eat it yourself!

Roland shook his head dumbfounded, “As you like.”

“As you order, my lord,” she said slyly.

…

The next day, Azima took the piece of high-purity uranium and embarked on a journey to find the source. Roland also received another good news from the city hall.

The oil fractionation tower project jointly participated by the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Chemical Industry completed the construction of the No. 1 Tower.

To show his importance, Roland attended the launching ceremony in person.

This tall tower is located on the bank of the Chishui River, in the Neverwinter Industrial Zone. The tower is nearly 25 meters tall, and it is also a masterpiece of new technology and new ideas. Layer, using the different boiling points of oil vapor to separate different products.

The specific temperature measurement and evaporation control have been completed in the laboratory, coupled with Anna’s welding technology, can fully meet the requirements of simple fractionation.

In fact…the quality of the distillate product has very little to do with the tower itself, so small that in some places even building a boiler with bricks can still distill oil.

This reminded him of the geography books he had when he was a child, which said that the motherland had a vast land and rich resources, and had everything. However, when he grew up, he realized that there was something… but the quality was generally not very good, which added countless problems to the refiners.

He found that resources are just like their appearance, and there are inherent differences. The gap between high-grade minerals and low-grade minerals is like an abyss, which can only be made up by acquired efforts.

The same goes for oil.

Crude oil rich in wax, sulfur, and inorganic salts is as viscous as mud. It is not flammable with a fire, and it is useless without further processing. Some light oils, such as the oil fields in Borneo, are basically easy to touch. It can be directly used as fuel for burning.

Heihe, which spreads over half of the extreme south, belongs to the latter.

After learning about the self-spraying phenomenon, Roland became interested in this desert land, and it has been proved that the oil collected from Endless Cape is indeed not bad, and after fractionation, it can basically meet the current use requirements.

Although it is far inferior to the refined products of later generations, he does not have to pursue perfection in one step.
