I Have A Super USB Drive-Chapter 516: Developments in the Resident Evil Dimension

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen Chen did not know about the door that was found on Mars in the dimension of Doom.

After getting everything he wanted, he thought of leaving.

After all, every time something entered or exited the portal opened by the USB drive, it consumed energy. After a month of going in and out, the energy in the USB drive was also nearly exhausted.

Thus, after withdrawing all the Black Knights, he decisively closed the USB drive.

He originally had another idea and that was to bring researchers from the other world over to work for himself.

Still, after thinking about it, he finally dispelled the unreliable idea.

After all, after bringing them over, the secret of the USB flash drive would be revealed. Unless this group of researchers stayed out of contact with the outside world for the rest of their lives, sooner or later they would know the truth — that they were not in an alien world, but another human civilization.

Moreover, if they were not allowed to contact the outside world and were just imprisoned in the Spire like prisoners, then that was also a problem. After all, humans were social animals and long-term depression would inevitably lead to a mental breakdown. At that time, these researchers would not only be unable to bring any benefits to Chen Chen but on the contrary, became a cumbersome burden.

Therefore, Chen Chen discarded that thought.

However, Chen Chen did not mean to give up on this dimension directly but instead planned to open this portal again if possible. As early as when he entered Elysium’s dimension, Chen Chen had figured out most of the rules of the second form of the U disk. One of them was —

The opening of the portal could be repeated to an extent, allowing temporary closure. As long as another channel was not opened, the previous channel could be retained.

Unless necessary, Chen Chen would not open a channel to another dimension. Then, the next time he opened Doom, the USB drive’s channel would still be connected to this world and the time flow of that world would be equal to reality’s.

Chen Chen believed that there was room for further cooperation between him and Doom’s dimension.

After returning to reality, they worked as quickly as possible in the Spire Experimental Base. Within half a month, the three Ark teleportation equipment were completed, to the point where experiments could be carried out. The test subjects were naturally Delta-level personnel detained inside the Spire.

To perform the tests, Little X first used the Gantz sphere to teleport these Ark materials to the ground, then set up the three Arks in three hidden places, and renamed the three Arks as: teleporter Watchman 1, Watchman 2, and Watchman 3.

In this way, even if their appearance was changed and they were revealed to outsiders, at most those people would only be surprised that this kind of teleportation was a bit similar to the one in the story of the movie Doom, but they would not think there was any connection between the two.

Moreover, to test the factors of distance and speed, of the three teleporters, one was erected in the Spire Experimental Base and the remaining two were temporarily erected in the Congo tropical rain forest a thousand kilometers away and in the Pacific Ocean 10,000 kilometers away.

A total of 100 Delta-level personnel were used in this experiment. The final teleportation success rate was stable at 100% and the teleportation time had been maintained at about 0.01 seconds.

This was the smallest unit of time that the instrument could detect.

In other words, the teleportation speed of these three Arks was the same as that shown in the data, which was 99.9999% the speed of light.

In that case, it would take only about 20 minutes to teleport from Earth to Mars.

Nonetheless, X-112 had obtained the data from the Ark Experimental Base in the world of Doom earlier on. From this data, it could be seen that if it was interplanetary teleportation, a focus coordinate system was required every time. After all, the space between the planets was in constant motion.

If the focus was misaligned, it was very likely that the situation in the movie would occur — a man’s upper body reached the destination, but his lower body flew toward the vast unending universe.

In addition, the teleporter also relied on electricity for teleportation. Each teleportation also consumed a huge amount of electricity. Fortunately, Chen Chen did not possess much else but had plenty of electricity and it was supported by a nuclear fusion reactor. Chen Chen did not need to be concerned about energy.

After finishing the experiment, the next thing Chen Chen needed to consider was how to place the two Blacklight teleporters on the moon and Mars.

Due to this, Blacklight Biotechnology, while concealing this from the Earth Federation, must use the Ares to transport a batch of industrial robots to the back of the moon, where they could excavate a new underground base. Then, they could start mining helium-3 without any reservations.

This helium-3 was an isotope of the element helium. It was different from ordinary helium in that it contained two protons and one neutron.

Its greatest value was that it could undergo nuclear fusion reactions with hydrogen isotopes. Helium-3 was fuel for nuclear fusion power generation. The energy produced by nuclear fusion reactions with helium-3 was greater than that of traditional deuterium-tritium reactions. During the traditional deuterium-tritium reaction, the generation of nuclear fusion energy also produced a large number of high-energy neutrons and these neutrons could cause radioactive damage to nuclear reactors.

On the contrary, if helium-3 were used as fuel, high-energy protons rather than neutrons were mainly produced. Helium-3 was not only non-radioactive but the reaction process was also easy to control. Therefore, helium-3 was a kind of ideal nuclear fusion fuel that was clean, efficient, and safe.

If the energy return rate of coal was 16, then the energy return rate of the nuclear fission power station built by Chen Chen was 20, and the energy return rate of helium-3 nuclear fusion was as high as 270.

According to calculations, the construction of a 2-million-kilowatt helium-3 nuclear fusion power station consumed only 200 kilograms of helium-3 every year. If helium-3 nuclear fusion power generation was used by the entire world, the total annual power generation would only consume 100 tons of helium-3.

In other words, the helium-3 in lunar soil could supply the earth’s energy needs for thousands of years.

However, the reserves of helium-3 on the earth were small and difficult to exploit and artificial synthesis was expensive. However, there was a large amount of natural helium-3 in the lunar soil. According to calculations, the total resource of helium-3 on the moon was estimated to be 1 million to 5 million tons.

Therefore, during Blacklight Biotechnology’s nuclear fusion project in cooperation with the four continents when the CUERB Project was launched, they had started to lay out lunar scientific research stations for the helium-3 resources on the moon.

The other teleporter was about to be placed at the North Pole of Mars. After all, the South Pole had been occupied by the new scientific expedition team. Building an underground base at the North Pole of Mars, in addition to being used to study Mars, was more of a precaution for the future to Chen Chen, in case of any changes on the earth, at which he could still transfer his property to Mars.

Still, these all need to be laid out slowly, not something that could be done overnight.

However, when Chen Chen was planning to avoid the eyes of the Earth Federation and establish a secret base, new updates came from the four major continents.

On the other side of the Rosen bridge, in the dimension opened in the Indian Ocean, they unexpectedly found a group of survivors.

Fate was truly toying with Chen Chen. After he had unknowingly opened the Rosen bridge, to prevent the four major continents from discovering that the world on the other side was the Resident Evil dimension, he deliberately added some difficulties, so that the four continents would not be able to know the truth for at least a few years. However, who would have expected that when the drones patrolled once again, they came across a group of people who were still barely holding on.

After hearing the news, Chen Chen did not know for a moment whether he should cry or laugh, but because of this discovery, the Lilith Assembly initiated by the four continents was about to begin.

Chen Chen thought for a while and finally went to the meeting room as before. He chose a location at random and then the environmental holographic simulator located in the four corners of the room quickly started up. Chen Chen only felt his vision blurring and when he could see again, he was once again in that meeting room.

Five indistinct figures were sitting around the conference table, each with its own number, from 01 to 05.

This highest-level meeting of the Blacklight Foundation was the so-called “Lilith Assembly”.

It was named this because in the Jewish Bible, Adam’s first wife was Lilith. Currently, the artifact of human foreknowledge was the quantum computer “Adam”. Therefore, this meeting that was also used to safeguard and prevent human beings from becoming extinct was called the Lilith Assembly.

At this time, everyone in the meeting room was obviously in high spirits. 01 said, “I believe all of you have received the latest progress in the exploration of the other dimension. That dimension turned out to be a world where humanity has been destroyed. This is the biggest discovery since we started exploring it!”

“So, how did we discover that?”

Chen Chen asked absently, “As far as I know, isn’t that dimension already occupied by that kind of weird infectious meme?”

“We used a high-altitude reconnaissance plane.”

01 immediately explained, “To better explore the entire world, we mobilized a batch of military reconnaissance planes on all continents. These reconnaissance planes explored the world around the clock, even as far as tens of thousands of kilometers away. The results were shocking. It was discovered that the Flower of Flesh meme didn’t occupy the entire world on the other side, but only a small part of it.

“Once we arrived at the European Continent on the other side...”

03 followed up. “In the European Continent over there, we found countless building remains and even found various familiar cities and buildings such as the collapsed Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, and innumerable landmark buildings that only exist in our reality. It’s only then that we’re sure that the world on the opposite side is also the same Earth!”

Chen Chen sighed secretly, then asked, “What then?”

“Then, we also found that there were traces of human corpses in the wreckage of those cities, so we took the risk and spent a few days using a helicopter to cross tens of thousands of kilometers again, crossing the blockade of the Flower of Flesh, and arrived in the city where human bodies had been found.”

03 then said, “Then, we were shocked to find that those corpses turned out to be zombies that only exist in movies!”

“Zombies?”

Chen Chen’s voice was rather astonished. “Are you kidding me?”

“No, although it’s indeed unbelievable, what I’m saying is the truth.”

03 took a deep breath and spoke again, “Those zombies are in a strange dormant state on ordinary days. In this state, their physiological activities are reduced to a level close to zero. They were passive and quiet until the helicopter had landed, then they were awakened by the noise and rushed toward our foundation soldiers, but were quickly shot dead on the spot.

“However, we subsequently obtained samples of these zombies and analyzed them, finding that there was a special virus in their bodies. This virus is surprisingly similar to the Ebola virus, the Blacklight virus, and other filoviruses. This virus has turned them into the aggressive living dead who like to eat human flesh!”

With that said, a sheet of information appeared in front of everyone out of thin air. Chen Chen scrolled through it casually, only to see that it was an experiment report about the virus.

“This thing is like...”

Chen Chen said softly, “It’s like a movie. What’s the name of that movie?”

“Resident Evil!”

, who had not spoken all this while, suddenly voiced out, turning his blurred face to 01. “The Resident Evil movie from 2002 is a Hollywood movie shot in Northern America. Am I right, Supervisor 01?”

“02, what do you mean?”

01 suddenly became a little unhappy. “Are you suspecting me?”

“Of course not. I just want to ask you, why would a movie shot in Northern America appear in reality?”

’s tone was full of inquiry. “Did those of you in Northern America know about the existence of this dimension for a long time, so you made this movie on purpose? And the location on the other side of the passage is also in Oregon, Northern America. Are these all coincidences?”

“Have we gone mad, resulting in such baffling behavior?”

01 was a little miffed. “Although I don’t understand why this happened, Northern America has nothing to do with this dimension. Whether you believe it or not, that’s the truth!”

“This isn’t the time to blame each other.”

Chen Chen immediately quelled the sparks flying between the two of them and he asked, “This isn’t the time for internal conflicts. After all, the situation on the other side may be more complicated than we thought. What we need to do now is to unite and explore the other world together, right? Supervisors?”

“Yes, 05 is right, we should work together.”

04 agreed to the compromise.

Seeing this, 01 and 02 did not continue to argue.

“Next, we also explored the surrounding areas of the city and as a result, outside a village, we found a piece of cropland that wasn’t neglected.”

03 continued to explain, “So our task force soldiers surmised that there were people living there and this turned out to be the case. Indeed, we found five human survivors in that village.”

“Very good...”

Chen Chen nodded and exclaimed, “This is indeed a massive discovery. The world on the other side of the passage isn’t only the same Earth but also has the same human beings and the same civilization. This is simply a miracle!”
