After sensing the changes in the shelter, Xu Zhengyang was thrilled. He immediately closed his eyes and used the Magnetic Sensory Nerve skill to feel the entire shelter.
From the perspective of the Magnetic Sensory Nerve, Xu Zhengyang felt as if he had merged with the shelter! The entire shelter had become a part of his body!
Without hesitation, Xu Zhengyang manipulated the steel of the shelter to transform and create a metal base in the pre-designed power room.
Next.
Xu Zhengyang went to the power room and promptly installed the cold fusion reactor he had obtained from the alien escape pod onto the base.
After completing these tasks.
Xu Zhengyang looked at the power room with excitement and then gave an order to Da Bai, "Replan the shelter's electrical circuits.
Now, transfer all power supply to the cold fusion reactor!"
"Understood, Master."
Da Bai complied and immediately directed various engineering robots to drag cables over and rewire, connect...
Two hours later.
After Da Bai had sorted out all the circuits, he reported to Xu Zhengyang, "Master, the wiring is complete.
As long as you flip the main switch in the shelter's power room to start the cold fusion reactor.
We can directly shut down the surface nuclear power plant and use the cold fusion reactor in the shelter's power room to supply power to the entire shelter!"
"Start it!"
Without hesitation, Xu Zhengyang went to the control panel and pushed the main switch up!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
As soon as Xu Zhengyang pushed up the main switch in the power room, more than half of the circuit breakers in the shelter suddenly closed one after another.
Immediately after.
Xu Zhengyang felt the voltage in the shelter fluctuate briefly, then instantly return to normal.
The cold fusion reactor in the power room also started working with a "hum" sound!
The moment the cold fusion reactor in the power room took over the entire shelter's power supply, it was considered that Xu Zhengyang had completed the construction of the aerial aircraft carrier! At the same time.
A series of system messages immediately appeared before Xu Zhengyang's eyes:
[Main Quest: Air Superiority (Completed)]
[Reward Obtained: Skill Card·Charge]
...
[Skill Card·Charge]
[Effect: Upon use, you will master the skill: [Charge]]
Seeing the card that had appeared in his hand out of thin air, Xu Zhengyang didn't hesitate and chose to use it immediately.
As the skill card turned into a stream of light and surged into his forehead.
Xu Zhengyang immediately looked down to check his attribute panel, searching for the specific description of this new skill:
[Charge: You can instantly restore your Mental Strength by consuming the shelter's energy (1000 kWh of electricity can restore 1 point of Mental Strength)]
After seeing the attributes of the Charge skill, Xu Zhengyang was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed excitedly, "So now I can use the Magnetic Sensory Nerve skill without any restraint?!"
Although the Charge skill consumes a significant amount of electricity, with 1000 kWh needed to instantly restore 1 point of Mental Strength.
But Xu Zhengyang's power reactor contained a cold fusion reactor from alien technology!
As long as the cold fusion reactor is fully operational.
Even if Xu Zhengyang wastes Mental Strength recklessly, he might not be able to deplete the shelter's power reserves! "Awesome!"
Seeing everything proceed as he had hoped, Xu Zhengyang couldn't contain his excitement and shouted out.
After a moment.
Xu Zhengyang vented his emotions freely, then nodded in satisfaction before turning to Da Bai and saying, "Dismantle the old circuits and reclaim the equipment and space.
As for the nuclear power plant on the surface of the shelter...
Let the power there supply the Prism Tower and the Resource Integration Center."
"Understood, Master."
Da Bai acknowledged and immediately began operating the Engineering Robot to carry out Xu Zhengyang's instructions.
At that very moment.
A series of red subtitles suddenly flashed before Xu Zhengyang's eyes, signaling yet another emergency task! [Emergency Task: Dragon Bone (In Progress)]
[A spatial rift has suddenly appeared outside Earth's atmosphere, and the corpse of a cosmic behemoth will enter Earth's atmosphere in 6 hours.
Please locate it and bring it back to your shelter!]
[Task Objective: Recover the cosmic behemoth's corpse (0/1)]
[Time Limit: 2 days 23 hours 59 minutes 52 seconds]
"A spatial rift?"
Xu Zhengyang was momentarily stunned upon seeing the task information, then immediately turned to Da Bai and said, "Da Bai, use the satellites to look outside Earth.
Check for any spatial rifts."
"..."
For the first time, Da Bai did not respond promptly to Xu Zhengyang's command.
After a moment.
Da Bai timidly asked Xu Zhengyang, "Master, what does a spatial rift look like?"
"..."
Only then did Xu Zhengyang realize this oversight.
From the atmosphere to the Earth's surface, free fall takes only a few minutes.
If the cosmic behemoth's corpse lands inland, that's one thing, but if it falls into the sea...
This task could be declared a failure outright!
Therefore, to complete this task, Xu Zhengyang must find that spatial rift!
So Xu Zhengyang asked Da Bai again, "Is there anything unusual inside or outside the atmosphere?"
Da Bai immediately replied, "I've already used all the satellites under my control to observe the inside and outside of Earth's atmosphere, and I haven't found anything unusual."
Xu Zhengyang sighed upon hearing this.
Just as he was placing his hopes on luck, preparing to wait six hours for the cosmic behemoth to appear before taking action.
Suddenly.
Xu Zhengyang remembered that when he awakened his intellect, he had gained a hyperspace thinking skill! This skill not only reduced the energy consumption of all spatial equipment by 50% when used by Xu Zhengyang.
But also gave him an additional special sense, allowing him to observe the structure of space more intuitively! Thinking of this.
Xu Zhengyang suddenly became excited and exclaimed, "It seems I'll have to find this spatial rift myself!"
With that.
Xu Zhengyang immediately went to the surface, piloted the Hurricane Light Multi-Function Mecha in shuttle mode, and ascended all the way to the edge of Earth's atmosphere.
Then personally inspected the area section by section!
...
Two hours later.
While flying outside the atmosphere in the shuttle mode of the Hurricane Light Multi-Function Mecha, Xu Zhengyang's eyes suddenly lit up! "Found it!"
At first glance, this place seemed no different from anywhere else, empty and void.
However, under the perception of the hyperspace thinking skill, Xu Zhengyang "saw" at least fifty to sixty discordant areas of varying sizes here!
The smaller discordant areas were only three to five meters wide;
while the larger ones could reach up to five to six kilometers in size!
The spatial fissures interlocked with each other, forming an extremely unique spatial structure here!
