Chapter 908 -37 Emperor Gao Wen (Thanks to the major patron loading7 for the silver reward!)_2 Chapter 908 -37 Emperor Gao Wen (Thanks to the major patron loading7 for the silver reward!)_2 Like Zheng Xiangyue, Angelica, Wei Shengjin, and Liu Shiyu, these lucky ones…

Their hibernation pods had already been aboard Jask’s spaceship flying towards Mars, which is why they could escape disaster.

Other hibernation pods from Earth, surely didn’t have such luck.

Suddenly.

Lin Xian thought of something.

He turned his head and looked at Big Face Cat, who was huffing and puffing as he dug:

“Brother Lian, you just said miniature nuclear batteries are everywhere, right?”

“That’s right!”

Big Face Cat said while shoveling dirt:

“These things are too durable; their casings are made of hafnium alloy…

Many miniature nuclear batteries from hundreds of years ago are dug up, you just connect a wire, and they can be used immediately, still holding a lot of charge.”

“Not to mention, the super catastrophe of 2400 almost destroyed human civilization, burying a multitude of equipment, cars, and home appliances under the ground…

...

The number of miniature nuclear batteries is just too many, we literally can’t use them all up.”

Click.

While they were talking.

Big Face Cat’s shovel hit something hard.

He bent down, scraped away the dirt, and picked up a completely disassembled, shattered mobile phone.

In no time at all.

He pinched out a piece of chewing gum-sized, flat rectangular, shiny miniature nuclear battery.

Big Face Cat blew off the dust and handed it to Lin Xian:

“Here, look!

Here’s another miniature nuclear battery dug up…

They’re everywhere.

If it were the big ones, the nuclear batteries used in cars might be a bit valuable, but there’s not much use for these little ones.”

Lin Xian took the miniature nuclear battery, not much bigger than a coin, and examined it in the palm of his hand.

Its appearance was ordinary, completely encapsulated in hafnium alloy, obscuring its internal structure.

On the side,

The positive and negative terminals of the battery were marked.

Made of the same hafnium alloy and insulated to prevent short circuits.

He turned it over and looked at it again; it was still shiny.

Even though Big Face Cat had just aggressively shoveled it with an iron shovel…

It didn’t have a single scratch.

Hafnium alloy indeed lived up to its reputation, a truly unparalleled existence.

“I understand now.”

Lin Xian turned around, holding the miniature nuclear battery in his hand, and looked at Gao Wen:

“It’s this thing that can sustain power; therefore, the hibernation pods in the underground hibernation base could continue to operate for hundreds of years without any external energy supply.”

“What you just mentioned…

you said the purpose of this excavation site was to dig for ‘Turing.'”

“If I’m not mistaken, does that mean beneath the Earth, apart from the hibernation base…

there are also some hidden laboratories or server rooms?”

“Those secret rooms also have nuclear batteries for power, along with computers, hard drives, monitors, and the like running for long periods.

Even with the super disaster of 2400 nearly demolishing human civilization, these underground secret bases, secret rooms…

as long as they were buried deep enough, they wouldn’t be affected by the catastrophe.”

“Is that the case?

Great Emperor Gao Wen, you were so certain just now, you must know what this ‘Turing’ really is, right?”

Gao Wen saw the patrolling supervisor coming with a whip in hand.

He hastily signaled Lin Xian.

The three of them immediately stopped their conversation and dug furiously to avoid whipping…

Waiting for the supervisor to walk away.

Gao Wen moved closer, shoveling dirt as he spoke:

“I can’t understand a lot of things very well, but I have a good memory.

The supervisors, foremen, even the higher-up leaders…

I remember what they said.

Over the past three years or so, I’ve overheard quite a lot of information broadly summing up the purpose of this dig site.”

“It’s like this…

in this era, 2624, Earth’s humans, after 200 years of reproduction, combined with the inexhaustible energy source of miniature nuclear batteries buried underground, developed in a very abnormal direction…

turning into an extremely violent and aggressive ‘tribal society.'”

“In this world, humans live in the form of tribes, often a large tribe can have tens of thousands of people, very powerful.”

“But, although there’s an inexhaustible energy source, there are not many high-tech products to use.

Plus, after the catastrophe, population recovery was slow…

so for a long time, tribes were peaceful, quietly developing and recuperating.”

“Until…”

Gao Wen swallowed and continued:

“[Until one tribe, from a deep underground server room, dug up a Turing Computer…

and the world’s balance and peace were completely shattered.]”

He looked around.

The supervisor was not in sight.

So he continued explaining to Lin Xian:

“They call those computers ‘Turing’; I don’t know what a computer is, nor do I know what Turing is…

But according to them, Turing is incredibly powerful; it knows everything and can do anything, almost able to answer any human question.”

The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.

“Turing guides the tribe’s people in developing technology, making weapons, and teaches them tactics, learning to utilize natural resources…

Any tribe that manages to dig up a Turing Computer enters a phase of rapid development and becomes dominant in their region.”

Hmm?

Lin Xian spotted a blind spot:

“Wait a minute.”

He interrupted Gao Wen, questioning:

“From what you’re saying, there isn’t just one Turing Computer?

And…

those tribes who dug up a Turing Computer would also fight each other?”

“That’s correct.”

Gao Wen nodded:

“That’s what I gathered from their daily conversations; apparently, there are many Turing Computers, many backups in the underground secret laboratories, all equally powerful, all were refuges created by the original Turing to avoid the super disaster of 2400.”
