Super Invincible Battleship-Chapter 1691 - 655: Upgrade Raw Materials

Although Yan Fei is concerned about the safety of all humanity, he did not promote the hard-won Grand Unification Theory nor did he have the idea of bringing everyone together to develop. He believes that the main reason for the current chaos in the world is that everyone’s technological level is very close, resulting in military strength being very similar, which gives some countries room for imagination.

If a force with technology far surpassing other countries appeared on Earth, under its powerful military suppression, other countries would have no hope and would then abandon creating chaos, becoming truly united to face a strong enemy together. Therefore, Yan Fei instructed Yang Qi that the Grand Unification Theory must remain confidential and must never be leaked.

After obtaining the design drawings of the Space Battleship, Yan Fei was very pleased. With a step, he passed through the space channel at Two Realms Pass and returned to the underground passage on Dream Island outside. As soon as he appeared in the underground passage of Dream Island, he sensed his Drone Avatar. He took out the storage equipment and let the Auxiliary Brain copy all the data inside. Then Yan Fei reopened the Drone Upgrade System and saw that the Drone upgrade template had been lit up.

Looking at it, Yan Fei saw that the icon illuminated in the system was the Space Battleship he had just seen in Yang Qi’s laboratory. Beside this Space Battleship, there were three blank slots, and in one of these blank slots was a red question mark. This represents that there are four templates to choose from for this Drone Upgrade: besides the already lit Space Battleship, there are three other upgrade templates to choose from.

If Yan Fei were in an advanced cosmic civilization, he could access more Space Battleships and would be able to choose the one that suits him best for upgrading. Unfortunately, Yan Fei has not yet flown out of Earth and cannot access the most advanced Space Battleships, so his choices are very limited. After much effort, he completed the design of one upgrade template; where could he possibly find the other three Drone upgrade templates?

Yan Fei decisively chose the only lit Space Battleship, using it as the next upgrade template for the Drone, without bothering with the other three blank options.

Under Yan Fei’s click, the Drone upgrade template was based on the newly designed Space Battleship. Then the upgrade panel changed, and the other three blank slots disappeared, leaving only the sole Space Battleship.

After completing the Drone upgrade template selection, the question mark following the upgrade button turned bright red again, indicating new explanatory content inside.

Yan Fei clicked the red question mark, and a sentence popped out: Template selected, materials needed for this upgrade: Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, Lutetium, Scandium, Yttrium, each requires 10 tons.

Gold: 1 million tons.

Silver: 10 million tons.

Iron: 10 trillion tons.

Copper: 1 trillion tons.

Nickel: 5 trillion tons.

Oil: 100 billion tons.

Special Items: Acquired.

Yan Fei had already roughly estimated the quantities of raw materials required for the Drone upgrade, but when he saw the actual required quantities he was shocked, as these quantities already exceeded the limits of his imagination.

Previously, Yan Fei had stored over 200 billion tons of oil on Dream Island and had also mined a lot of rare earth metals. Therefore, among these upgrade materials, apart from oil and some rare earth metals that have already been satisfied, the other materials simply cannot be met. Even if Yan Fei scoured the Earth with all his might, he might still not be able to gather the quantity of materials needed for the Drone upgrade.

The upgrade from Level 5 to Level 6 for the Drone has very harsh conditions for each stage. But from the looks of it now, the Merit Points required for the upgrade seem to be the easiest to fulfill; as long as Yan Fei goes all out, it won’t take long to meet this requirement. However, when it comes to gathering the upgrade essential items, Yan Fei immediately feels the difficulty. If it weren’t for a stroke of luck traveling through time and space, Yan Fei simply wouldn’t be able to collect enough upgrade essential items. freёwebnoѵel.com

But when the upgrade essential items were all ready, Yan Fei was stuck on the upgrade template for a very long time. After finally waiting for the technological explosion on Dream Island and Yang Qi designing a complete Space Battleship, he found that the quantity of materials required for the upgrade exceeded Yan Fei’s ability to bear. If the difficulty of previous Drone upgrades was considered normal mode, then this upgrade has become hell mode. However, the Space Battleship designed by Yang Qi was originally enormous in size, coupled with its ability to engage in space battles post-upgrade, needing so much material was understandable.

Yan Fei immediately felt the difficulty of collecting raw materials, such as the gold required for the upgrade being 1 million tons; it’s known that since the beginning of human society, a total of only 120 thousand tons of gold have been mined, and the proven unmined gold reserves now amount to less than 100 thousand tons. Even combined with that large gold piece stored on Dream Island, it does not meet the 1 million tons required for the upgrade. Although the total gold amount on Earth exceeds 1 million tons, most of it is located in the Earth’s core, making extraction impossible.

Besides gold, the quantities of 10 million tons of silver, 10 trillion tons of iron, 1 trillion tons of copper, 5 trillion tons of nickel all exceed Earth’s total reserves. Although there are substantial reserves in the Earth’s core, Dream Island’s current technological level cannot extract them.
