Transmigrator's Guide to Conquering Another World

The daily output of the Spirit Stone mine has increased by 30%.

For a moment, even someone of Qin Zhendong's status couldn't help but show surprise.

Now, the rabbit-type creatures' main and branch production is still over 1,200 per day, with the extracted Spirit Stones increased by nearly a third, which is over 300 pieces!

And that too without any additional expenditures!

The higher one's status, the more one understands the importance of such strategic resources.

Therefore, he hurriedly asked,

"Old Lin, have we identified the reason behind this?"

Lin Li pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said uncertainly,

"According to our conjecture, it might be due to the differing quality of the mother and branch areas within the mine—over 20,000 mother and branch stocks in the previous area have been mined out, and the exploration team has repositioned to a new area, which we believe might be related to this.

Of course,

these are just some guesses, as we have too few samples to compare.

Oh, right, speaking of the Spirit Stone mine... I hope the organization can send some more management personnel, especially cadres like Comrade Fei Qiu with strong business capabilities.

The camp is currently short-staffed, and if it weren't for the crucial work holding up at the coal mine, I would want to reassign Comrade Fei Qiu back to the Spirit Stone mine."

Faced with Lin Li's request, Qin Zhendong did not hesitate this time and nodded decisively,

"No problem, within three days I will organize a new batch of personnel to go over." (Unconditionally supporting roles, comments can be left here, positions not higher than section-level, gender is not restricted)

Then Lin Li continued,

"Apart from the Spirit Stone mine, our most important Life Experiment Base has now entered the casting phase.

The number of advanced laboratories has increased from seven to ten since the trade group returned, and one is specifically for analyzing soil samples.

Meanwhile, the military base's progress also basically meets the camp's planned expectations; the debugging of the few J10 aircrafts has reached the power assembly stage.

Unexpectedly, they might be airborne in about four to six months.

By then, we will have combat power equivalent to the Nascent Soul Fourth Stage.

Though in other aspects there might still be a gap with the Nascent Soul, at least they can handle the high-level Core Formation Realm without any pressure.

Moreover, Academician Hua Jun and his team have proposed an idea, hoping the headquarters can allocate a batch of Tier Two Sky-Controlling Talismans to them, to see if our Type 59s can be made to fly, that is, to be amphibious.

In addition, the self-production capability at the military base is also gradually improving, and the combat power research team hopes the core team can disassemble and transport a few units of Master Eight, as currently, Master Eight still has a considerable number on the Eastern Front."

"Alright, I'll report this matter immediately."

Qin Zhendong nodded, then thought for a few seconds, and walked to the side of a password-protected case.

After fingerprint and iris recognition, he took out a classified document from it and handed it to Lin Li,

"Old Lin, this is the phase three task set by the core team, take a look.

Apart from the development requirements, the next focus is on developing the Damo Realm's mineral resources while continuing to decode and crack elixirs, spiritual materials, and cultivation techniques."

Lin Li took the document and read it carefully from start to finish.

The phase three task requirements are broken down into many details, but in summary, just one sentence:

First mine, then build an army!

Actually, in terms of the current development level of the rabbit-type creatures in the Damo Realm,

if necessary, resource feedback can already be achieved to a certain extent now.

But such feedback doesn't hold much significance.

Do the rabbits lack sand, timber, or coal mines at home?

The answer is definitely yes.

But do they really lack them to the extent that ignoring everything else and not bringing them back today would lead to demise?

The answer is needless to say.

If the Damo Realm were an ordinary wasteland or martial arts world, where the combat power ceiling was just common gunpowder or cold steel weapons,

then everything would be simple, just chop trees, mine ores, and transport stones with a single stroke.

Because for such a world, the most important things are resources and territory, and possibly research in humanities too.

But the Damo Realm is different, it is incredibly mysterious.

Whether it's the situation of the whole planet or its cultivation system based on Spiritual Energy, its importance far exceeds those ordinary resources—so high that it's inconceivable.

Therefore, resource feedback is not the current primary task, but rather, scientific research to unravel the unknown is.

For example, now.

The rabbit-type creatures have already decoded the Spirit Awakening Pill, Earth Vein Flame, Tier One Body Protection Talisman, Tier One Sealing Talisman, and aspects of Spiritual Energy concentration.

Then based on the reverse transcription nature of the Spirit Awakening Pill, they achieved mass production of Spirit Awakening Pills, Spiritual Energy Shields, Sealing Action Catchers, and the L17 cultivation system.

These are tangible achievements in both technology and cultivation, far more important than bringing back a few loads of minerals.

The foundation for research begins with scientific personnel and power equipment.

To generate electricity, fuel like coal needs to be transported from local sources.

This investment is necessary and worthwhile, as it will yield returns of a thousandfold, ten thousandfold, or even greater in the future.

Subsequently, Qin Zhendong asked Lin Li:

"By the way, Old Lin, how's that L17 cultivation environment your students have been working on lately?

The core team is very interested in this cultivation environment since compared to the Damo Realm, we are starting much later in the field of cultivation.

If this cultivation environment can be promoted locally, then surely our speed can improve significantly."

The L17 cultivation environment is a high-concentration spiritual energy cultivation system previously developed by Wang Qiang's team.

It was mentioned before.

In the Damo Realm, only a small portion of the spiritual energy can be absorbed by the human body; the majority are inactivated talismans.

The portion of spiritual energy that can be absorbed by humans is called spirit particles.

Pay attention, this concept is important and will be on the test later.

The higher the concentration of spiritual energy, the more spirit particles can be absorbed by the human body, which is somewhat similar to Le Chatelier's principle, i.e., shifting equilibrium to the right.

During the experimental phase, Wang Qiang's team attempted a series of methods like membrane separation, gas liquefaction, and extraction of non-target gases.

But whether purifying spiritual energy or extracting other non-spiritual gases, the concentration of spiritual energy could only reach a maximum of 38.8%.

Even when the oxygen and nitrogen in the air were extracted in a closed manner, the concentration of spiritual energy still remained at this peak value of 38.8%—the excess spiritual energy would degrade into other gases through some unknown irreversible reaction, thus keeping the concentration of spiritual energy constantly at this peak value.

This irreversible phenomenon can currently only be observed and not analyzed, somewhat similar to the initial state of optical gates, where the spectrum is visible but unexplainable.

This is a phenomenon that seems contrary to common sense, but not to science.

Because the essence of science is to solve the unknown; if it exists, it is reasonable.

Do not find this phenomenon strange, many local phenomena are similar to or even exceed the degradation of spiritual energy peaks.

For example, the mystery of neutron lifespan.

As is well known.

Neutrons are baryons, composed of two down quarks and one up quark.

Free neutrons can decay into protons via weak interactions, simultaneously releasing an electron and an (anti-electron) neutrino,

Since neutrons can decay, they naturally have a lifespan.

After all, they do not have black-framed glasses.

Currently, there are two methods for measuring the lifespan of neutrons:

The first method is to place many neutrons in a container, count how many neutrons remain in the container after some time; this method shows the neutron lifespan as 14 minutes and 39 seconds.

The second method involves generating a neutron beam and counting the number of protons generated; this method results in a neutron lifespan of 14 minutes and 48 seconds.

A difference of 9 seconds is unimaginable in the field of particles.

It's like throwing two ping-pong balls at home, and due to wind or your initial angle and force, the two balls might land with some discrepancy at the dropping point.

For instance, one might land straight while the other lands a bit to the side, with a distance difference of about ten centimeters.

This belongs to routine errors, which can be corrected by replacing hands with mechanical arms or similar means.

However, if after the two ping-pong balls are dropped, one lands normally while the other falls to a place 200 kilometers away from your home, this cannot be explained by error.

Such is the nature of neutron lifespan.

This phenomenon, in a sense, is far more outrageous than the degradation of spiritual energy, even theories introducing dark matter cannot solve it.

This is also where science is more straightforward than literary debate—phenomena are there, if you cannot explain them, it is a black box or a dark cloud.

But once you break it down, you can be printed into textbooks as a six-point exam question amidst accolades of "Amazing!" from others.

Returning to the main topic.

Previous research by Wang Qiang's group found that under the current separable peak condition of 38.8% spiritual energy, the maximum concentration of absorbable spirit particles is 17.4%.

Hence, this system is referred to as the L17 cultivation environment.

Even four spirit root cultivators can absorb a high concentration of spirit particles in this cultivation environment.

In the Damo Realm, a typical four spirit root cultivator during cultivation, without other special opportunities, absorbs about 0.8% of spirit particles.

Cultivators with slightly better aptitudes, like three spirit root cultivators such as Wei Qiangsheng and Wei Fan, could absorb about 1.5%-2%.

Double spirit root cultivators can absorb 3%-5%.

So the importance of L17 goes without saying, it is a typical product of the integration of technology and cultivation.

This is why the core layer is highly concerned about one thing:

Can the L17 cultivation system be promoted locally?
