Chapter 70 - The Ability To Threaten The Pentagon?!
Chapter 70: The Ability To Threaten The Pentagon?!
In the United States, Secretary of Defense Edward Sidle was watching Raymond’s live broadcast.
“Sidle, is Raymond really preparing heavy water?”
“Yes, Minister.”
“Based on your experience, what are the chances of him succeeding?”
Edward Sidle looked at the white-haired but energetic professor beside him, hoping to get the answer he wanted.
“If it’s based on my experience…”
“The power sources on the island are sufficient, but the equipment is insufficient. The laboratory is not airtight enough to meet the requirements for the preparation of heavy water. Moreover, Raymond’s fan lake conditions are not enough. It’s possible that if the heavy water is not prepared sufficiently, he will be injured.”
“You mean that Raymond’s chances of success are not high?”
“Based on my experience, that’s what I’m saying.”
“You seem to have more to say?”
“Yes… the current Raymond’s way of thinking has already exceeded our understanding, so what he’s doing can not be judged by common sense at all. Moreover, according to Raymond’s previous calculations, production, and compilation, the probability of him producing heavy water is at least 96% or more. Even if there is a problem with the laser cannon, it is completely within the acceptable range.”
Apparently, the scientist had become a supporter of Raymond.
However, he still maintained his rationality.
However, a discordant voice sounded beside Edward at that moment.
“I don’t think Raymond can successfully produce heavy water!”
“Oh?” Edward turned to look at Bolen. “Bolen, what do you think?”
Those who could stand here were naturally not ordinary people.
Moreover, he was unwilling to give in to Cedric. Naturally, his ability was not much lower.
“I don’t care about the laboratory being simple and crude. After all, my laboratory is not much better. The key is that the formation of heavy water requires a continuous voltage and current, which are the most crucial criteria! Does Raymond have it now?”
“He doesn’t. Raymond doesn’t even intend to make this component. His procedure is all over the place. How can he make heavy water?”
“Although Raymond’s ability is indeed inferior, I have a negative opinion on this matter.”
After listening to Bollen, Edward looked at Cedric.
Cedric did not say anything. It seemed that he did not intend to argue with Bollen.
“What is the probability of Raymond creating a nuclear bomb?”
“Not greatly reduced,” Bolen continued, “Without the support of heavy water, Raymond will not be able to control nuclear fission. He would be exposed to radiation at point-blank range and die in a short period of time. ”
“This…”
Walker suddenly frowned.
Raymond may have come from the slums, he was still an American.
As an American, Walker did not want Raymond to die like this.
Moreover, he also wanted to get the technology in Raymond’s hands.
Be it the specific technology of the rocket engine, Tuesday’s AI, or the battery technology and the laser cannon technology, he was very eager to get his hands on them.
Moreover, Raymond’s talent still had more to show, so he would certainly invent more good things in the future.
In fact, the current Raymond, in the scale of the history of human civilization, had already been engraved on a large scale.
But, who would dislike a better, more convenient world?
At least, Walker wanted to see a better world.
He also wanted to travel to outer space in his lifetime.
He would also settle for a realistic virtual world.
The premise of these dreams was that Raymond could live well.
If he lived, there would be hope for himself and even for Earth.
After thinking for a while, Walker found that in just a few days, Raymond had reached an extremely ridiculous height.
Such a high level…
Maybe a lot of people want him to die!
And I…
Want him to live.
I want to see this dream-like world.
I want to see the stars that can not be seen.
Raymond, he can not die!!
But, Walker was not in a position to carry out his personal desires.
When Raymond builds a nuclear bomb, it would be the biggest threat to the United States.
In the face of national security, he had to hope that Raymond would fail.
As for whether he died or not, it did not matter anymore.
It was just that.
Some people couldn’t understand what Raymond was doing at all!
Those who could understand him were trying to figure out his ideas based on their own old ideas.
So, the result was a little comical.
After more than an hour…
Raymond’s newly designed device began to operate automatically.
He walked away.
“Call me when the production of heavy water reaches 1,000 liters…”
He was completely confident.
This also meant that the device Raymond designed and manufactured had succeeded.
Moreover, the audience could clearly see that the water was quickly rising.
It was as if there was a high-powered pump constantly pumping water into the storage tank.
How could he produce heavy water at such a rate?
“It was successful, just like that?”
“It was that simple?”
“Coach, I want to learn!”
“Coach: I want to learn too, who’s going to teach me!”
“Is there a big shot who can explain this? Did Raymond succeed?”
“This… since there are no big shots who can explain this, then there’s only one conclusion: Raymond’s device successfully produced heavy water, but they could not understand the principle behind it…”
“Is Thunder God’s work at that point now?”
“Does that mean that Thunder God is completely capable of handling a nuclear bomb with his bare hands?”
“No, no, no! This implies a lot more…”
Threat!
This was a huge threat.
The island was right next to the United States.
Canada and Mexico were both in danger.
However, the leaders of these two countries did not intend to stand out.
First, Raymond was located in the United States.
Second, the most worried should be the United States mainland.
If the Pentagon was not worried, what should we be worried about?
Worried?
Was the Pentagon worried?
They were not too worried.
What nuclear bomb would be a threat?
It was the kind of nuclear bomb that flew out into the atmosphere. That was an actual threat.
The United States was not afraid of a nuclear bomb that had not yet been launched.
After all, there were several military bases on the coastline near the island.
Moreover, these military bases were fully capable of intercepting a nuclear bomb in flight.
Therefore, the people of the Pentagon were not too worried.
They just kept an eye on the matter.
After all, Raymond was only preparing heavy water now.
He still needed nuclear warheads, intercontinental missiles, navigation systems, satellite guidance systems, and so on.
Only a complete nuclear bomb would pose a threat to the United States.
Moreover, Raymond was still working on the belief that he was the only man on earth.
The Pentagon wasn’t afraid at all.
