51: 108 reactors! 29 days, 23 hours, and 27 minutes to go!!

Half a month later.

The production capacity of the Divine Core Base had initially reached Lu Feng's previous expectations.

The overall production capacity had increased a hundredfold.

At this point, the power load of the entire divine core far exceeded the annual electricity consumption of an average province.

However, it was all worth it.

Because the value of what they produced...

...far exceeded the value of that electrical energy.

As the 1-nanometer divine core chips produced by this capacity...

...began to continuously fill the massive computers of the Divine Light Base,

Lu Feng's shenlin computer was no longer just the world's number one.

Shenlin could now be said to far surpass the supercomputers of the USA.

Its computing power had exceeded that of previous top-tier computers by tens of millions of times.

This number was still continuously increasing.

Its computing power was limited by an original, crude system.

Currently, the addition of each chip...

...could only exert its original individual computing power.

A '1+1 is greater than 2' scenario could not yet occur.

In other words, it was currently just a brute-force, simple stacking of chips.

However, Lu Feng couldn't care less about that now.

He couldn't spare the energy to deal with system issues for the time being.

This was exactly what he needed right now.

Simply stacking the computing power of the chips was enough!

At this moment, Lu Feng, Ji Zhengkang, and several key members of the Divine Light Base...

...were sitting tensely in the massive data laboratory.

On the giant screen before them,

massive and complex data streams flashed continuously.

These strange and beautiful symbols...

...represented that the shenlin computer had reached the final stage of its calculations.

Tense and excited expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

"If only this thing had a progress bar,"

Sun Qing muttered softly from the side.

"We know it's going to happen in these couple of days,"

"but without a progress bar, we don't know which step it's at."

"Indeed!" Elder Ji said, which was rare for him.

"Never mind you,"

"even an old man like me is too nervous to sleep."

On Ji Zhengkang's aged face, there were very obvious dark circles under his eyes.

Clearly, he had barely slept recently.

But his face was constantly radiating a look of excitement.

As if there was some sort of premonition in the air,

just as the two of them finished speaking,

on the entire massive display screen,

the data stopped.

The final characters were displayed.

"This..." Elder Ji asked in disbelief.

"This..."

He stammered slightly.

For some reason,

even though he had looked forward to this moment the most,

when the moment actually arrived,

he found himself somewhat speechless.

"Is the result out??" Elder Ji finally managed to say.

"Yes! Elder Ji!" Sun Qing jumped up excitedly.

"Yeah!!!"

"Yeah!"

She excitedly made a peace sign.

"Ah!" Other staff members also began to shout loudly.

Their faces turned red from the exertion of their cheering!

Over these past few months,

their tireless work had not been in vain!!

It was not in vain!!

They had accomplished a feat that their predecessors had failed to achieve for decades.

But among them, only one person remained calm.

Even when Ji Zhengkang, the oldest and most experienced, was rejoicing,

Lu Feng still didn't show the slightest hint of joy.

He looked at everyone's excited faces,

remaining silent.

He waited until everyone's emotions had gradually calmed down

before slowly speaking:

"It's like this: these data only represent my theory."

"Combined with the experimental data we previously obtained from the reactors,"

"under the calculations of the shenlin computer,"

"it can succeed."

As he spoke,

Lu Feng operated the computer.

"Everyone, look!"

Everyone looked at the big screen.

They saw that behind all the dense rows of numbers,

there was a simple and clear figure.

108!

"What does this 108 mean?" Elder Ji was the first to ask.

Lu Feng nodded.

"It means that we still have 108 variables ahead of us."

"And the one reactor that can succeed"

"will definitely appear among these 108!"

"Is that how it is?" Elder Ji asked.

Lu Feng shrugged.

"This is based on my theory, all the deductions,"

"and our previous experimental data,"

"as calculated by the shenlin computer."

Seeing everyone fall into a period of silence,

it turned out there was still quite a long way to go.

They had always known that Controllable Nuclear Fusion wouldn't be that easy.

Seeing everyone's somewhat dejected appearance,

Lu Feng smiled.

"Don't be anxious, everyone."

"Look here."

As he spoke, Lu Feng's fingers tapped rapidly across the input keyboard,

making a crisp pitter-patter sound.

Then, a massive countdown appeared on the giant screen.

This countdown was actually!!

29 Days, 23 Hours, 27 Minutes!!

The time was still continuously decreasing.

Lu Feng's voice rang out again, calm and unhurried.

He was as steady as if he weren't a youth at all,

truly becoming the backbone of the team!

"From now on, we will build these 108 experimental reactors according to the data."

"Then we wait for the successful one to appear!"

"This is the countdown to our success!"

Suddenly, Lu Feng felt his arm being gripped tightly.

He looked up.

It was Elder Ji.

Elder Ji's face was flushed with an unusual red.

"Lu Feng, can you really make it before National Day?"

Lu Feng nodded.

He said one word with absolute certainty:

"Yes!"

Elder Ji looked at the countdown on the big screen,

then looked at Lu Feng.

His lips trembled incessantly.

"I!"

"Can I really see Dragon Kingdom become number one in the world before I die?"

Lu Feng smiled.

He gently patted Elder Ji's shoulder.

"Elder Ji! I believe you can!"

"Good! Good! Good!" Elder Ji nodded.

He then took a deep breath

and shouted to the other key research personnel:

"Boys!"

"Charge with me!"

"We're going to build these 108 reactors right now!"

"Yes!"

"Okay!"

"Charge, Elder Ji!"

Several key members shouted loudly.

They had been doing scientific research underground all year round,

without going home to see their families.

Everyone's emotions had been silently building up.

Now, seeing that the research they might have struggled for a lifetime for

was actually about to be completed,

and that they were participants in it all,

how could they not be excited?

Everyone was as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

Their emotions were extremely high

as they followed behind Elder Ji.

Lu Feng also followed closely behind.

He had to watch the reactors.

Some data still needed to be personally supervised by him.

Lu Feng said with a smile:

"Elder Ji, wait for me!"

"Don't run so fast in your electric wheelchair!"

Unexpectedly, after just a couple of steps,

Lu Feng suddenly felt his vision go black.

Then he collapsed to the ground.

Before fainting, he seemed to hear Sun Qing's anxious voice,

saw the image of Cheng Yong rushing over,

and Elder Ji's movement as he tried to stand up from his wheelchair to run over... When he woke up again,

Lu Feng was in a hospital outside the base.

A VIP ward.

Lu Feng was the only person on the entire floor.

Furthermore, there were over a thousand special forces personnel outside the hospital.

Poison Fang was hidden among them.

Cheng Yong was guarding him at all times.

Sun Qing sat by Lu Feng's hospital bed.

She was already exhausted, but still struggled to keep her eyes open and fixed on Lu Feng.

As soon as she saw Lu Feng wake up,

Sun Qing's beautiful eyes instantly burst with bright light.

She cried out in surprise,

"Lu Feng, you're awake!!"

Cheng Yong immediately ran over

and pressed the red button at the head of the bed!
