Chapter 345 The Super Fire Extinguishing Bomb That Drains Oxygen!

Wait, what?

How does this look with tracks and a cannon barrel have anything to do with fire-fighting equipment?

However...

Li Jiajun paid no attention to Wang Dachui's twitching mouth.

At this moment, he was immersed in a great sense of accomplishment from solving a world-class pain point.

He sat up straight in his large executive chair.

Li Jiajun stroked his chin once again, falling into deep thought and epiphany.

He picked up the small notebook beside him that recorded Liu Jianguo's requirements and looked at the series of pain points listed on it.

He calculated in his mind.

He had basically perfectly solved all the difficult problems Uncle Liu had raised.

Remote firefighting?

He had that "Beyond Visual Range Firefighting Tool" with a range of ten kilometers, which would definitely allow firefighters to operate from the safest locations.

Chemical plants or extreme environments with toxic gas leaks?

The [Firefighting Tracked Armored Vehicle] he had just created was not only explosion-proof and impact-resistant but also resistant to toxic gases; it could definitely walk tall through the ruins.

With these two items, the safety of firefighters was definitely guaranteed in all aspects.

But...

Li Jiajun pondered. He had always been a person who strove for perfection.

Since he had finally found an absolutely safe, purely civilian direction that was guaranteed not to be requisitioned, he felt he should think more comprehensively.

Curing the symptoms is not as good as curing the root cause.

The fire must be completely extinguished at its source.

To find a breakthrough, he looked at the phone screen fixed to the edge of the desk and decided to discuss this profound topic with his die-hard fans during the live stream.

He cleared his throat, stroking his chin while murmuring his analysis.

He began to teach the die-hard fans in the stream about the scientific conditions for fire formation.

"family, since we're going to make the best fire-fighting equipment in the world, we have to understand exactly how a fire starts."

Li Jiajun held up one finger, his tone becoming very rigorous.

"According to the scientific definition, combustion must have three conditions simultaneously; none can be missing."

"First is the combustible material, which is the fuel."

"This refers to substances that can react with oxygen and release energy, such as wood, paper, gasoline, natural gas, and so on."

"Different combustibles have different ignition points."

"Second is the oxidizer, which is usually oxygen."

Li Jiajun held up a second finger and continued his science lesson.

"Combustion is essentially a violent oxidation reaction that requires enough oxygen to support it."

"The oxygen concentration in our air is about twenty-one percent. Once it falls below a certain concentration, combustion will immediately weaken or even stop altogether."

At this point, he held up a third finger.

"Third is the ignition source, which is the temperature reaching the ignition point."

"This provides the initial energy to bring the combustible to its critical point of combustion. For example, an open flame or the heat generated by high-temperature surface friction."

"Combustion will not occur if any of these three conditions are missing."

...

Listening to Li Jiajun's well-reasoned and rigorous scientific explanation.

The group of military-noob die-hard fans in the stream were all stunned.

Then, a wave of praise drifted across the bullet screen.

"The Main Streamer is too professional! Isn't this a hundred times better than those Streamers who only know how to shout into the mic?"

"Learned something, learned something. So the principle of firefighting is so clear."

"Factory Manager, then how should we use these principles to put out fires?"

"Yeah, which condition is the fastest to break when encountering a big fire?"

Looking at the questions on the bullet screen.

Following this rigorous scientific logic, Li Jiajun's brain worked rapidly.

Suddenly, he slapped the table hard, making a crisp sound.

He said loudly to the stream, "family, think about it!"

"When facing a massive sea of fire that covers the sky, if you want to extinguish it instantly, spraying water to cool it down is simply too slow!"

"And trying to forcibly clear out those combustibles in a fire scene is even more unrealistic!"

"So, our only efficient method is to instantly destroy the second condition, which is the oxidizer!"

Excitement flashed in Li Jiajun's eyes.

"As long as we can find a way to instantly drain the oxygen from the fire scene, no matter how big the fire is, it will have to go out on the spot!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the stream was once again filled with bullet messages expressing agreement.

But...

Although the theory was perfect, how to actually implement it was a big problem.

How exactly could one drain the oxygen from a large-scale fire scene in an instant?

Li Jiajun sat in his chair, brows furrowed, falling into deep contemplation.

The office fell silent.

...

Just then, a small accident occurred.

Wang Dachui, who had been sitting by watching the show and was still speechless over the tank blueprints, suddenly had his stomach growl.

He was feeling a bit hungry now.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a bag of crispy instant noodles he'd bought to stave off hunger.

In order to shake the included seasoning powder evenly.

Wang Dachui gripped the packaging with both hands and began to forcefully knead the noodle block inside.

The "crackling" sound of breaking was quite clear in the quiet office.

As it turned out, with Wang Dachui's nearly two-hundred-pound frame, the strength in his hands was simply too great.

He accidentally used too much force.

A crisp "pop"!

The plastic packaging of the instant noodles couldn't withstand the internal pressure and was squeezed until it burst!

Immediately after.

The fine noodle dust mixed with seasoning inside the bag instantly gushed out like a small fountain.

And as luck would have it...

On the corner of the desk next to Wang Dachui, there happened to be an incense burner for mosquito repellent, with a stick of incense lit inside to refresh the mind.

The high-concentration fine dust diffused in the air drifted down onto the incense stick that was glowing with a faint open flame.

...

With a "boom"!

The fine powder came into contact with the open flame in the air, instantly satisfying the three conditions for combustion.

A miniature dust explosion occurred just like that in the office!

A dazzling small fireball instantly exploded in front of Wang Dachui's face, which resembled a big-headed carp.

The fireball burned exceptionally violently, and in almost the blink of an eye, it completely consumed the air in that small area.

The local oxygen was instantly drained.

Wang Dachui was just opening his mouth to cry out in surprise, but instead, he took a sudden gulp of hot exhaust gas without any oxygen.

He was instantly stifled, unable to catch his breath.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Wang Dachui clutched his chest, his face turning red from the lack of air, and he coughed violently and repeatedly.

He felt as if someone had just grabbed him by the throat.

And Li Jiajun, sitting not far away, happened to see this entire process clearly.

Instant noodle dust spraying.

Exploding upon contact with fire.

The fireball expanding, and Wang Dachui suffocating and coughing due to oxygen deficiency.

This sequence of images was like a bolt of lightning streaking across the night sky, striking directly into Li Jiajun's mind.

In this instant.

Li Jiajun's eyes instantly became hollow, his pupils losing focus.

He once again entered that exclusive state of epiphany.

"That's it!"

While in his epiphany, Li Jiajun murmured his analysis.

"Why use physical means to isolate the air?"

"Chemical means can be used instead!"

"First, disperse a high concentration of flammable aerosols and dust!"

"Let them evenly cover the area above the fire, and then, instantly perform a secondary ignition!"

In his mind, countless points of knowledge surged like boiling water.

He frantically deduced the ultimate reactions of fluid mechanics and combustion science.

A concept so bold it made one's scalp tingle gradually took shape in his mind.

By creating a larger-scale, controllable explosion, all the surrounding oxygen could be consumed in an instant.

Once the oxygen was gone, the original fire would naturally become like water without a source and would be extinguished instantly!

Ding! [You observed a miniature dust explosion. Combined with fluid mechanics and combustion reaction theories, you have entered into deep thought...]

Ding! [You have instantly grasped the mystery of consuming oxygen! You have successfully comprehended the Super Fire-Extinguishing Bomb technology!]

Accompanied by the crisp system notification in his mind.

Li Jiajun's deduction came to an end.

With the completion of the epiphany, a structural diagram of a firefighting munition that could produce high-temperature, high-pressure secondary combustion and completely drain the surrounding oxygen appeared clearly in his mind.
