"Okay...but what's the point of going to the thermal power plant? The workers there must have become secondary infected, otherwise the power supply would not be interrupted."
Sun Jiayi turned her head away and looked out the window.
"It doesn't matter, I know the detailed operating procedures."
Hamilton replied with a confident expression on his face.
As long as the optical brain does not take up too much computing power, Hamilton's words and deeds will be no different from those of normal humans.
Not only the verbal communication is very fluent, but even the subtle expressions can be expressed perfectly.
At first, Sun Jiayi didn't believe that the other party was a bionic human, and it was precisely for this reason.
"Okay, then I'll do as you say, but if you can't do it, don't force yourself."
The girl still has a gentle personality. Although she encountered a major change not long ago, looking at the current appearance, Sun Jiayi seems to have gradually come out of it.
The smoothly driving off-road vehicle quickly passed through Yunlong Town. Towering chimneys appeared in their field of vision, and the thermal power station was right in front.
Arriving here, Hamilton's speed slowed down even more, and the energy core in his chest emitted a hum that was inaudible to human ears.
The magnetic cage operates, and the ultrasonic waves spread in all directions.
Hot plasma pours from the core, preparing for the energy-intensive conditions that may follow.
But there was still silence all around, with only the engine of the off-road vehicle roaring alone on the street.
Stopping at the entrance of the thermal power station, Hamilton carefully pulled the handbrake and faced Sun Jiayi.
"I'll go down and take a look at the surrounding situation first. You just stay in the car. If you encounter danger or feel something is wrong, you can use the walkie-talkie to contact me, or you can shout loudly."
"Well...be careful yourself..."
Sun Jiayi nodded, took out a walkie-talkie from her small bag, and turned on the switch.
This was found in city n. Although she hasn't used it yet, Hamilton has taught her how to use it.
There shouldn't be any problem if you just leave for a short time to explore the surrounding situation.
Picking up the crowbar in the car, Hamilton got out of the car.
At the same time, he didn't forget to lock the car door with his backhand.
In this way, even if there is someone outside the car, the car door cannot be opened immediately, and naturally the girl inside cannot be harmed.
In fact, Hamilton can take the girl out with him.
But for the sake of safety, he still chose to leave Sun Jiayi in the car.
First explore the surrounding situation and make sure it is relatively safe before taking the girl out.
After two or three walks to the power station gate, Hamilton briefly looked at the chain on the door.
After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he inserted the crowbar in his hand and used a little skill to remove the padlock from the door.
Pushing open the door, Hamilton stepped inside.
Next, there was a 'long' wait of five minutes.
During this period, Sun Jiayi's eyes never left the ajar door, holding the walkie-talkie tightly with both hands, as if it was not a simple communication device, but the key to her survival in this apocalyptic world.
Fortunately, no zombies or other bad monsters appeared during Hamilton's absence.
When the door opened again, Hamilton walked out intact.
"It should be safe inside, but in order to reduce the chance of your death, I suggest you be fully armed."
Reopening the door, Hamilton got into the car.
Clean up quickly
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He spoke while looking at the tools he might need next.
"Okay... then I'll put on a helmet, protective glasses, and a mask, right..."
The girl nodded cooperatively, and immediately took the protective gear that had been prepared from the back seat.
These things were also collected by Hamilton in the city, all to ensure the girl's safety.
After taking some time to put on the protection in the car, Hamilton parked the off-road vehicle in a more secluded corner, and the two quietly got out of the car and walked towards the thermal power plant.
Passing through the ajar door, a strange scene appeared in front of the girl.
"Is this a thermal power station... It does look very industrial..."
Sun Jiayi looked at everything around her curiously. Before the disaster, her job was just an office clerk, and she did not study a related major in school, so these industrial equipment were quite unfamiliar to her.
Except for the simple identification of the chimney, the specific uses of the other large and small jars, thick and thin pipes, etc. are not clear.
"The small thermal power station was originally built to provide power guarantee for Yunlong Town and surrounding small industrial buildings."
Hamilton recalled it for a moment, selected some useful information and replied.
He had retrieved the information about Yunlong Town from the data in his brain a few days ago, and some of the impressions existed in the brain tissue inside his skull.
However, since I was not in Yunlong Town at the time, there was too little information available for reference, so the calculated Minkowski units were only approximate.
The early morning sun shines on the earth, and there is silence in the thermal power plant.
Although there are no wandering zombies, the feeling inside the power plant is different from that in Yunlong Town.
There is a little more life, not as lifeless as in the central square.
Moreover, the surrounding environment is not as clean as in Yunlong Town. At a casual glance, you can see many traces of damage.
"A lot of things here look damaged...Old man, can the power generation device you mentioned really work..."
Sun Jiayi looked around and said worriedly.
She knew that Hamilton's purpose of coming to the thermal power station was to use the power generation device.
Improving the optical brain calculation rate requires a lot of energy. Although the energy core built into his chest can satisfy this requirement, Hamilton will not use it unless it is an emergency.
After all, there is only one energy core. Once it is used up, there will be no place to find a new one.
In comparison, small thermal power stations have become a very high-quality choice.
As long as the power station is reactivated, Hamilton can increase the optical computer calculation rate without any worries, even if it is 100%, it is not a problem as long as the output power of the thermal power station can keep up.
"As long as there are no faults in the three main equipment of boilers, steam turbines and generators, and there are sufficient coal reserves, the power station can operate."
Hamilton explained patiently, while constantly observing his surroundings.
Although his previous inspection allowed him to make a safer judgment about the interior of the thermal power plant, it is not a bad thing to be vigilant at all times.
Walking through the factory passage, the two quickly arrived at the location of the boiler.
Electric energy is one of the greatest discoveries in the history of human engineering science. The emergence of large-scale power systems has laid a solid foundation for the history of human development.
Thermal power generation sounds a bit mysterious, but in fact its working principle is very simple.
Summed up in three words, that is 'boil water'.
The water in the boiler is heated by burning fossil fuels such as coal, and then steam is produced.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, driving the turbine to rotate.
The steam turbine then drives the generator, which uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to generate alternating current.
In general, it is to convert thermal energy into mechanical energy first, and then convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
The location of the boiler where Hamilton and Sun Jiayi were at this moment was the huge 'pot' used exclusively for 'boiling water'.
Looking at the cylindrical equipment nearly four to five meters high in front of her, the girl silently took a step back.
At this moment, she has determined one thing, that is, she should not be able to help in Hamilton's power generation plan.
Since you can't help, just step aside and don't cause any trouble.
When Hamilton saw Sun Jiayi retreating, he didn't say anything. After confirming that there was no danger around him, he nimbly climbed up the ladder next to the boiler.
He wanted to see what was going on inside the combustion tube.
If there is still unburned coal, you can find a way to ignite it directly;
If not, then you can only go to the coal storage area next to it to get some coal.
Opening the buckle cover on the surface of the combustion tube, Hamilton put his head in and took a look.
The reserve of pulverized coal inside is not that large, but it should be enough to last for a while.
As long as the thermal power station starts smoothly and there is power supply, the conveyor belt in the coal storage area will automatically open.
At that time, the coal mine will continuously put into the combustion tube to generate more pulverized coal.
"The pulverized coal reserves are sufficient, and we only need to check the steam turbine and generator..."
Just as Hamilton was muttering to himself, a scream suddenly came.
"not good!"
Hamilton, who was still lying on the combustion tube, had a sudden change of expression, and in an instant, the energy core in his chest was working crazily!
The person who screamed just now was none other than his escort target, Sun Jiayi!
"Jiayi!"
As the shout came from his mouth, Hamilton looked like a tiger and leopard. He used his hands and feet to quickly turn his body and look towards the girl's original location.
But it was empty, nothing.
An emotion called anxiety spurted out from the brain tissue inside the skull, stimulating the nerves and senses of the bionic man.
Sun Jiayi is missing!
Holding the railing with one hand, Hamilton turned over and jumped straight down, regardless of the five-meter drop below.
Just when his feet were about to touch the ground, Hamilton caught a shadow from the corner of his eye.
"Is it human? Enhancer?"
The power supply of the optical brain was increased, and Hamilton in combat status quickly obtained the opponent's information.
While bending his knees, Hamilton's body rolled, relieving the momentum of his fall, and then quickly turned around to face the direction where the afterimage appeared.
"Let her go."
A cold and ruthless tone came out of the black man's mouth. Because the optical brain function was heightened, all unnecessary emotional expression functions were shut down.
While his movements are faster, he also looks more like a machine wearing human skin.
"Hey, don't come over here. If you dare to come over here, I will cut her neck!"
An unpleasant threat came from the front. What entered Hamilton's sight was Sun Jiayi, who was being held hostage, and a sloppy man with his upper body naked.
The man's left arm was tightly wrapped around the girl's neck, and he was holding a fruit knife in his right hand.
While he was threatening, the tip of the fruit knife was roughly pressing against the girl's neck.
Because the force was not controlled well, the tip of the knife had already cut through the skin, and a few drops of blood oozed out...
