  Even the Mars Olduvai Research Facility was opened by this company.

  In the story of the movie Doom, it was also the company responsible for researching the C24 chromosome technology on Mars. After the inciting incident, the Northern American Congress swiftly dispatched the RRTS Special Operations Squadron which the protagonist was a part of.

  When the team was dispatched, the only command issued by the upper level to the captain played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was:

  "Protect and retrieve all property of the UAC!"

  From this detail, it was enough to show how huge the influence of this company in Northern America was…

  "Ah, it's coming out, hurry and prepare the protection. Don't let it be dented!"

  At this time, one of the foremen suddenly shouted. He was manipulating a crane. At this time, under the crane, there was the core of the Ark, worn and weathered.

  Following his order, the group of workers immediately stepped forward to prevent the huge ball from bumping into anything.

  "Hey, Scott…"

  When everyone was busy with work, one of the slovenly middle-aged workers whispered to a companion beside him, "I've been thinking of this question a long time. If we dig out this thing, then how do we return to Earth in the future?"

  "Naturally, we'll take a spaceship."

  The worker called Scott shrugged. "I prefer to take a spaceship. Although it's a bit slower, at least I won't get motion sickness…"

  "Oh, you're right."

  The unkempt worker nodded and he was immediately convinced.

  After all, every time the Ark teleported someone, the dizziness generated was enough to make the passenger throw up their last night's dinner.

  "What are you two talking about? Better hurry up and concentrate on work!"

  Seeing the two whispering to each other, the foreman suddenly yelled.

  It was not until the core of the Ark was completely removed from the bottom of the pit that everyone sighed in relief. The sloppy worker glanced at the bottom of the pit casually, but he was stunned at that moment.

  "What's wrong, Sam?"

  Scott asked offhandedly, only to find that his best friend did not respond for the first time, so he followed the other's gaze and looked down.

  However, he only saw a metal door that was flat on the ground, covered with unknown patterns, like the entrance to a cellar…

  …

  Thirty days passed quickly. On the last day of the 30-day-period, a spacecraft flew in from outside and stopped near Papoose Lake in North America.

  A dozen soldiers got off the spaceship a little nervously and behind them was a strangely shaped transport truck. Within the carriage of the transport truck was the core of the Ark.

  As the spacecraft arrived, the ground in front of everyone was slowly elevated and then an old concrete elevator entrance rose from the ground. After that, a pair of heavily armed Black Knights wearing PK Armor came out of the elevator.

  "We've brought it."

  An officer walked out from the group of soldiers. He waved his hand for the transport truck to come forward. "This is the core of the Ark that you want."

  One of the Black Knights nodded immediately. He stepped forward, vaulted himself onto the truck, and then glanced at the core of the Ark in the carriage. He waved his hand after confirming the authenticity. Suddenly, there was another Black Knight who stepped out and replaced the previous driver to drive the transport truck into the elevator.

  The core of the last Ark was finally in hand.

  After seeing that they had confirmed the authenticity, the officer said a little timidly, "Since you have got what you wanted, can the researchers in the base be released now?"

  However, his words received no response.

  The other party seemed to be a group of soulless beings, returning one by one to the elevator, without any reaction to the officer's words.

  "Uh…"

  The officer could only watch the elevator door close again. After the elevator descended downward, the originally elevated platform was retracted underground as if this place had always been an incomparably ordinary wasteland.

  Seeing this, the officer had no choice but to turn on the communicator. He said softly, "Mr. Commander, we've delivered the last core of the Ark, but the other party didn't respond to our proposal for the release of the prisoners."

  "If that's the case, forget it. You should head back for the time being. Don't stay there anymore, so as not to be misunderstood by the other party."

  A low voice came from the communicator.

  "Yes…"

  At the same time, far away in the White House in Washington, all the top leaders in Northern America also received this news.

  "It looks like the transaction is over."

  In the meeting room, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

  "Although the other party didn't directly release the hostages, this is a good start."

  The president leading them stated, "What we have to do now is to monitor their every move to prevent any new incidents from happening again."

  "I hope that they'll comply with the requirements and can leave after getting the three Arks."

  The Minister of Foreign Affairs on the side also spoke because everyone understood that their so-called surveillance was just self-comforting empty talk. As long as the other party stayed on for another day, everyone could not even sleep well. Many officials here had lost a lot of weight in the thirty days.

  "Okay, now we can talk about the next topic."

  Without continuing with the previous subject, the president suddenly changed his tone. "I think you have all received the secret notice. After the core of the Ark on Mars was moved away, a large sturdy door was found below. No matter what method was used, we couldn't open it."

  Everyone looked at each other wordlessly, then nodded together.

  "But now I want to give you the latest update."

  Suddenly, the president cracked a smile of gratification. "Just yesterday, the Olduvai Research Facility sent news that, after they used a million-degree ultra-high field laser for cutting, the door finally showed signs of being cut open."

  "How many people know about this news?"

  Another senior official asked aloud.

  "Very few, except for the Olduvai Research Facility on Mars, only a few people from the United Aerospace Corporation and a few of us on Earth have received this news for the time being. The total number of these people in the world doesn't exceed 30."

  The president was full of confidence. "And I think it's best not to let these outsiders who call themselves Martians know of this. After all, no one knows what's under the door."

  "Might be the technology left over from the Martian civilization."

  The Minister of Foreign Affairs was yearning. "If we can get the strange exoskeleton armor technology that the man wore before, it would be great…"

  "That exoskeleton armor is nothing."

  However, the Minister of Commerce next to him immediately curled his lips and said, "I'd rather have his supernatural power that allows flight through the sky, it's almost a miracle!"

  "Maybe it's a technology for immortality, who knows."

  Someone continued to add.

  Once they talked about this, everyone became excited as if the alien legacy far away behind the door of Mars was already in their pockets.

  "Alright, everyone, be quiet!"

  The President of Northern America raised his hands and suppressed the noise of the crowd. "We don't know what it is, but there must be something very precious in it because when we discovered the Ark's teleportation platform on Mars, we conducted various tests on the ground beneath but nothing besides the core of the Ark has been found at all.

  "That is to say, this kind of thing had been intentionally hidden to the point where our technology can't detect it in the slightest. Only now, after taking out the core of the Ark, we discovered its existence…"

  "Yes, this thing
must never be revealed to those bandits!"

  Everyone nodded.

  "Maybe they know about it…"

  Suddenly, the Secretary of Defense who had been silent said, "If the other party is a prehistoric Martian civilization, then it's very likely that they know the door exists."

  Everyone was silent when they heard these words.

  "What you said is also possible."

  The president nodded in agreement. "So, I'm thinking that we just need to pretend to be ignorant for a while. If he doesn't mention the door, it means that he doesn't know about the existence of the door, right?

  "Thus, in any case, the confidentiality of this door must be well kept. This is what I ask of you."

  Everyone naturally guaranteed this again and again.

  Only the Secretary of Defense was still a little gloomy. He stared blankly at the report in his hand. It was the description of the door that was found this time, ranging from its size, pattern, material, to all kinds of guesses from the Olduvai Research Facility. There was no end to the data.

  What was even more unbelievable was that they did not know what material the door was made of. The entire door was so strong and solid that even the hardest drill bit was used to no avail. There was no way to open it so far.

  However, it was precisely this difficulty of opening the door that made everyone in the White House look forward to what was inside.

  Chapter 516: Developments in the Resident Evil Dimension |

  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.
