Chapter 373 Pressurized Water Reactor
“Done!”
The black figure was none other than Chen Jue who had traveled thousands of kilometers to get here.
As for the coating material on his body that was similar to that of the fifth-generation stealth fighter jet, he referred to the material parameters provided by the base database and used the ability of [Material Interference] to transform the clothes on his body into a fully enveloping stealth combat suit.
Due to a series of misunderstandings caused by the previous high-speed flight in the air, Chen Hao learned his lesson and simply spent some energy to transform this combat suit into a nano-wave-absorbing structure.
Even if the latest fire control radar or millimeter wave radar were to shine on him, there would be no way his presence could be detected on the reflective instrument.
Only this unfortunate Eagle Country sailor was able to observe Chen Jue with his naked eyes while smoking.
Of course, the reason why Chen Jue came to the Eagle Army base on this island was to clean up his previous mistakes.
After he killed the unfortunate Jackson with a single finger, he appeared in the combat command room like a ghost.
Pete, who was still listening to the radar monitoring attentively, was also turned into ashes by his finger before he could even scream.
The high temperature of plasma energy is at the same level as nuclear fusion reaction!
It can release an exaggeratedly high temperature of over 100 million degrees in an instant. Although the time is very short, for an ordinary person it is no different from jumping into a magma pool to take a bath.
…
After dealing with the two stationed Eagle Country sailors, Chen Jue first walked around the combat command room.
By operating the computer on the dashboard, the internal structure and route map of the USS Reagan were retrieved.
“The core power is here!”
"Let's go charge some batteries and replenish some energy first." Chen Jue glanced at the monitor, and then his figure flashed and disappeared under the surveillance camera of the combat command room like a ghost.
His current movement speed is already beyond the limits of human visual nerves.
Even if you use a camera to film it, unless you use a high-speed camera with a frame rate of over a thousand, you will basically not be able to capture the trajectory of his movements.
The reason why Chen Jue was standing in front of the computer and being photographed, exposing himself to the surveillance of the Eagle people, was also because he did it deliberately.
He just wanted to use the surveillance cameras to tell the senior American officials behind him to be more careful and pay more attention.
Don't think that just because you have large surface weapons like nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, you can act recklessly in the Pacific.
The earth is so big, there are many people who can deal with aircraft carriers like them!
Of course, Chen Jue didn't run so far just to kill a few Eagle Country sailors.
He followed the route map, circled inside the aircraft carrier, and successfully sneaked into its nuclear power center.
Nimitz-class aircraft carriers like the USS Ronald Reagan, which were built in the late 1990s, have seen their power systems age and decline after 20 years of service, with rusty wires everywhere.
As for the power plant inside the aircraft carrier, what catches the eye are two Westinghouse A4W/A1G pressurized water reactors and four steam turbines, together with four copper propeller thrusters, which can provide 260,000 output horsepower at a time.
Before humans lit up the nuclear fusion technology tree, this type of pressurized water reactor was the most advanced power supply device for ships.
Of course, its energy conversion efficiency is also very low, from nuclear energy → thermal energy → mechanical energy → kinetic energy, it drives the steam turbine to operate in the same way as "boiling water".
After entering the power center, Chen Jue saw several sailors on duty guarding the reactor. He sent them all away and finally came to the reactor and pushed the switch to the minimum power to the peak value.
Then he raised a finger, and golden energy burst out from his fingertips, like the most advanced laser weapon, and gently scratched the internal bearings of the four copper propeller thrusters.
After a few "buzzing" sounds, the four propeller thrusters completely misfired and were scrapped, and the power system of the entire Reagan aircraft carrier was completely paralyzed at this moment.
At this point, even if the Eagle countrymen wanted to pull it back to the factory for overhaul, it would take a few years before it could be put into the water again.
Because the power system of a nuclear aircraft carrier is too large and complex, it would take more than half a year to outfit it. This time, Chen Jue destroyed four of them at once.
After all this dismantling and reassembling, even without mentioning the time, the military budget overspending alone, which was a few words in number, was enough to cause the gentlemen in Congress to have a high blood pressure attack, and they would take a bottle of quick-acting heart-saving pills on the spot and be sent to the ICU for emergency treatment.
…
After clearing the area inside the power center, Chen Jue followed the inspection port of the pressurized water reactor and entered the inner shell of the reactor.
After drawing enough electricity from the Japanese Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant, Chen Jue hadn't replenished his body's energy for some time.
At this time, his body energy value had dropped to 0.99 due to constant wastage.
There happened to be two pressurized water reactors produced by Westinghouse in front of him, and Chen Jue certainly didn't want to miss this opportunity!
After getting into the reactor, he quickly found the carbon rods that were controlling the fission reaction.
"Low temperature pressurized water?"
"This temperature is similar to that of a hot spring." Chen Jue looked at the creepy blue light in front of him and reached out to touch the carbon rod of the reactor.
As the [Matter Interference] ability was activated, streams of red-gold energy like the sun seeped out from the nuclear fuel.
This is a mixture of energy and matter produced in the fission reaction. It is fundamentally different from the high voltage electricity that Chen Jue had indirectly absorbed before, but it is the same type of plasma as the plasma energy in Chen Jue's body.
With the newly awakened ability of [Electric Energy Control], Chen Jue began to frantically absorb the mixed plasma that seeped out.
…
After several hours, the nuclear fuel of the pressurized water reactor in front of him was completely exhausted, and the energy value on the data panel was slightly increased again:
Name: Chen Jue
Lifespan: ∞ (theoretical immortality)
Brain area: 4.96
Energy: 1.12
New skill: [Material Interference Lv1 (16/100)]
Free attribute points: 0.05
“It’s still not as good as an orthodox nuclear power plant.”
"It's just a small increase in energy, not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth!"
Chen Jue complained in his heart. Looking at the blue light in front of him that was gradually dimming, he felt like he had an afternoon tea that only made him three-quarters full.
He sneaked to the next door and drained another pressurized water reactor in the same way. By the time he left the power center, the sky outside was already beginning to lighten.
At this moment, a series of unusually piercing alarms sounded throughout the Eagle Country base!
Teams of fully armed Marines began to board helicopters and ships and frantically approach the USS Ronald Reagan.
After a night of fermentation, the strange movements inside the Reagan were finally discovered by these American hawks who had neglected their duties.
After several rounds of calls from the Situation Room in the early morning went unanswered, the operations room at the distant base had already checked all the surveillance cameras on the aircraft carrier.
After reviewing last night's surveillance footage and discovering that a group of sailors on duty on the aircraft carrier had mysteriously turned into ashes and disappeared, the Seventh Fleet stationed nearby was in an uproar!
"Fuck! What the hell is going on?"
"It was just a weekend off. Are all our sailors on duty blind? The enemy actually sneaked into our aircraft carrier in a swagger!"
"This is a shame for our Seventh Fleet!"
"If you don't want to become the next Third Fleet and be laughed at by the entire naval system, find the enemy quickly! "
Inside the base's operations room, Brigadier General Trick, with a star on his shoulder, was madly attacking his subordinates with a red face and thick neck.
Yesterday was the base's normal rotation holiday, and many sailors went out for fun. Even he, the fleet commander, got drunk at a social party with the chicken restaurant next door.
Trick had just gotten up, and he still smelled of cigarettes and alcohol.
If it weren't for his dedicated adjutant informing him that the USS Ronald Reagan had been robbed, Trick would probably have to sleep for half a day longer with that unknown chicken girl in his arms.
"Sir, the helicopters and boarding ships have been dispatched."
"We can enter the interior of the aircraft carrier in about half a minute!"
"The first batch of commandos has successfully landed, and no enemy has been found yet!"
"Deck clear... The search radar has not yet detected any enemy inside the aircraft carrier... We successfully broke into the command room without encountering any resistance..."
Inside the operations room, several commanders in charge of data link intelligence were constantly reporting what was happening on the Reagan.
"No resistance?"
"The other party controlled the interior of the Reagan for several hours, but they didn't leave any small moves?"
"Retreat? Or have they achieved their goal?"
"Could it be that the other side just wants to humiliate us?" Brigadier General Trick's mind raced, his eyes fixed on the real-time images transmitted by the front-line commandos.
The picture shows that the aircraft carrier's deck, hangar, and command room are all well preserved.
Not to mention the enemy, we couldn’t even find a single hair!
Because those sailors on duty had already been melted into ashes by the impact of Chen Jue's plasma energy and completely disappeared from the face of the earth.
"Sir, power room... Commando reporting, there is an emergency in the power room!"
"The two pressurized water reactors have now stopped working!"
