Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded-Chapter 551 - 269: Oasis Battleship Power, Petroleum War_3
In the region ruled by the Holy Spring Sect, although there are some oil-producing areas, the main underground mineral resources are concentrated between forty to forty-five degrees north latitude, which is under the Northern Giant Enterprise Alliance’s jurisdiction.
This includes the former Central Asia region and the Caucasus Mountains area, both of which are concentrated oil-producing zones.
Therefore, the struggle between the Holy Spring Sect and the Giant Enterprise Alliance, these two top-tier forces, is really inevitable.
This is also good news for Lin Feng, after all, when he heads to the Holy City Diocese in the future, he will need a breakthrough point to collect resources and build his own mobile base.
Petroleum is both an industrial raw material and an important power source.
"So, these three giant engines use an electric motor system?" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Lin Feng squinted his eyes, shielding against the boiling steam from the nearby boiler rushing into them, while noting down the general internal structure of the engine and asking aloud.
Father Su An nodded:
"That’s right, because Oasis is rich in photovoltaic panels, and of decent quality, using electricity as a power source is more convenient, and the horsepower of the engines is large enough."
"Although Holy City could use biological laboratories to cultivate evolutionary meat, they cannot produce the biological photovoltaic panels only live horses possess."
"Cultivating a Rock-Horned Horse ranch is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, and from a production-to-output ratio, the yield is very low."
"Cheap water sources and labor are essential to satisfy large-scale breeding systems, along with a complete industrial chain and stable demand."
"Thus, in Oasis Town, through policy support, the Li Family’s Rock-Horned Horse ranch has been able to thrive until now."
"This is precisely why the Oasis Battleship can rely solely on photovoltaic power to meet the propulsion needs."
"Moreover, large motors have sufficient power, with each motor reaching a power level of one hundred megawatts, equivalent to one hundred forty thousand horsepower, totaling four hundred forty thousand horsepower across all three!"
"In fact, just one of them could slowly propel this fifty-thousand-ton town-level battleship forward..."
"Currently, it’s just a matter of conserving energy to reduce wear and tear, and to satisfy the need to observe the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, it moves slowly at a minimum speed of one kilometer per hour."
"If all three engines output at full capacity, they could propel this steel giant at a speed of thirty kilometers per hour across the wasteland!"
Lin Feng nodded. These data points were already known to him when using the Oasis Key to initiate the control room’s highest battleship authority through scanning data.
The battleship’s maximum speed is twenty kilometers per hour.
Don’t think this speed isn’t very fast, but this is a giant steel beast over two hundred meters long and fifty thousand tons heavy; a speed of thirty kilometers per hour is nearly its limit.
But Lin Feng was more curious as to why this Level 30 battleship’s attribute data indicates a lack of sufficient power supply.
Currently, the three gigantic engines can perform only at thirty percent of their original capacity at max.
Finding a compatible power furnace is necessary to unleash its full potential!
However, without waiting long, when Father Su An led Lin Feng through the engine area to another area located at the middle of the battleship ahead...
Lin Feng, amidst searing heatwaves, saw the true power source of the Oasis Battleship...
A massive metal sphere stood silently before everyone, its surface an intense reddish-orange color, emanating a formidable high temperature.
Nearby, a large number of workers were using rock and soil to cool it down.
Or rather, extinguishing it, might be more apt!
