Chapter 513

Orbiting the Blue Star in outer space.

Moving toward the truly vast universe!

The atomic energy weapon project...

Is a new type of weapon based on the terrifying energy released between atomic nuclei.

Once this weapon appears, it will directly rewrite warfare, and the Great Yan will be even more invincible!

The nuclear power plant project is also a form of utilizing atomic energy.

After atomic energy is released in a fixed pattern, the resulting energy can supply the six hundred million people of the entire Great Yan.

From now on, the Great Yan...

Will no longer worry about a lack of electrical power.

Furthermore.

Deep-sea submarines were also designed by Lin Huang.

A streamlined mechanical structure, similar to the anatomy of a fish, where people can enter and pilot the submarine...

To enter the deep sea!

This is the first time the Great Yan has conducted exploration into the deep sea.

Great Yan Calendar Year 152.

As research in various fields related to information gradually perfected.

Otto achieved a brand-new breakthrough in computer research once again.

The crystal computer's operations per second reached 3 million.

Great Yan Calendar Year 153.

With the emergence of large-scale integrated circuits and electronic components.

The operating speed of the crystal computer was the first to break through 10 million operations per second.

At the same time.

Its physical size...

Was also gradually shrinking.

From initially occupying an entire house to the current four cubic meters.

Moreover.

Because of the popularization of various manufacturing components, its production cost...

Also dropped from an astronomical price, becoming increasingly low.

The Great Yan Research Institute felt the timing was ripe and was the first to announce this technology to the entire populace.

And publicly sold crystal computers.

However, although its production cost had decreased, it was still not something the average citizen could afford.

These types of computers...

Were mostly used in various fields of industry.

Large factories would use them when processing data or conducting industrial control.

Great Yan Calendar Year 154.

The four major research projects led by Lin Huang also gradually achieved astonishing progress.

The artificial satellite was still in the development stage.

The first to achieve a breakthrough...

Was the atomic energy weapon!

The formula for atomic nuclear reaction was gradually unveiled, and Lin Huang improved the method of energy release many times.

Relying on the powerful computing capability of the crystal computer...

The development time was shortened.

It took four years to manufacture the first atomic bomb.

In the north of the Royal Capital.

In a vast, uninhabited desert.

The first test explosion was conducted.

"Boom!"

Following a heaven-shaking roar.

The entire Royal Capital felt a violent tremor.

When the people from the Ministry of Works and the Great Yan Research Institute heard the news of the successful test, they were also incredibly excited and overjoyed.

Subsequently.

Lin Huang, who was in charge of this project, transmitted back the precise and detailed explosion data.

"This atomic bomb explosion is equivalent to one million times the power of primitive gunpowder. After the explosion, the light and heat radiation, electromagnetic pulse, shockwave, and radiation will cause terrifying lethality and destruction, turning a radius of one hundred miles into ruins..."

Upon seeing this report.

The excited high-level officials of the Research Institute calmed down.

They realized the severity of the problem.

If atomic bombs were allowed to proliferate...

In the future, if they were utilized by those with ulterior motives or malicious intent, they could even destroy the entire Blue Star!

Subsequently.

The Great Yan officials urgently convened a meeting to discuss the disposal plan for atomic weapons.

Everyone expressed their own opinions.

"I think this weapon is too terrifying, like a divine natural disaster, far beyond our control. It would be better to seal it away and never use it again."

"Absurd! Although this weapon is terrifying, how could our Great Yan lack the power to control it? If the late Emperor were here, he would surely develop this weapon on a large scale!"

"I think this weapon has both pros and cons, we should still treat it with caution..."

"Do you still remember the Transcendent beings the late Emperor once spoke of? Flying through the sky and escaping the earth, splitting mountains with a single sword—we have only just caught up to their footsteps, what is so terrifying about this weapon?"

"..."

After a day and a night of discussion.

The officials finally reached a unified opinion and decided to regulate atomic weapons.

This weapon is classified as a top-secret of the Great Yan, to be kept strictly confidential and not leaked.

Furthermore.

This weapon is only permitted for use in conquering foreign realms and must never be used on the Blue Star first.

After imposing strict restrictions on it.

The Great Yan made an astonishing decision.

To develop this weapon on a large scale for military reserves.

In the future, if there is a need for external warfare...

They will be the most terrifying killing weapons!

Great Yan Calendar Year 155.

The mage Otto successfully improved the crystal computer, increasing its computing speed...

To 80 million per second.

The performance of the computer was greatly improved, the production cost became lower and lower, and the physical size became smaller and smaller.

Various technological products of the information age were springing up.

Great Yan Calendar Year 156.

Lin Huang achieved another breakthrough in the utilization of atomic energy.

Successfully manufacturing the first nuclear power plant within the Great Yan territory!

Utilizing the terrifying energy of atomic energy to replace traditional power generation methods, they obtained what could be called inexhaustible electrical energy.
