Chapter 1133 How many tens of thousands of tons of Yueming Sand are needed to stop the burning of ore veins?

 Half an hour later, Elder Fahim, Anarilinge, Idian, and several other elves who stayed at the outpost swarmed over.

Each of them took a copy of Mineral No. 1593 - the words written on the label of the mineral box, translated, it is probably similar to "moon stone" or "moon bright sand" - and followed the operating procedures formulated by Grete, step by step.

.

Then, a group of elves held their breath and opened a cloud chamber, or directly covered it with spiritual power to observe the burning ore:

"The burning has slowed."

"It does seem to have slowed down."

"Is it that simple? Can you put out the burning veins by pouring the moonstone in?"

"We have been searching for the answer for thousands of years but have not found it. It turns out that it is so simple?"

The elves were whispering to each other, with expressions of surprise, joy, and disbelief on their faces.

Elder Fahim stood there in a daze, squinting his eyes and looking far away. His back was stooped, and the skin on his face and hands was loose. At first glance, he looked like a weathered old tree.

No, it's not that they haven't found it after searching for thousands of years, but that the elves didn't look for it at all.

The elves who are proud of their magic have regarded magic as the only solution from the beginning.

Even if I thought about using minerals, I would just use various metals to form partitions. I did not pour all the minerals that can be found in the world into the burning veins like Grete...

"Don't celebrate in a hurry yet." He spoke slowly. At the same time, a somewhat erratic and hoarse voice came to his ears:

"Wait...the experiment is not finished yet..."

Elder Fahim followed the sound. On the left, Gretel happened to turn his head and look over. When their eyes met, Gretel smiled and made a "please" gesture.

The little guy still respects the old man very much... Elder Fahim felt at ease, smiled and shook his head:

"You come, you come. This experiment was designed by you from beginning to end. Of course, you will preside over the next step."

Grete bowed slightly to him. Then he turned his eyes towards the warehouse:

"This kind of...moon stone? Moonlight sand? How many more are there?"

As soon as he asked the question, there was an explosion in the crowd. Gretel leaned back reflexively, and then looked attentively, only to see that Yudian had disappeared from the spot——

Gretel: "..."

I know you are in a hurry, but you don’t have to be so anxious! Why bother running out of the air to make a sound? It’s only a few steps from here to the warehouse. 100 meters is 10 seconds and 100 meters is 5 seconds. There is only a difference of 5 seconds!

He had just finished complaining, and a figure flashed in front of him, and Idian had already rushed back. The half-step legend stood calmly with his hands behind his hands, and put on an expression of "I haven't moved at all, the person who ran so fast just now and I

It’s okay” look:

"I was lucky, there was still half a basket. It was selling cheaply at that time, so they just picked a basket back...probably, about 100 pounds?"

Grete frowned, tangled, and said nothing. He looked at Udian and then at Elder Fahim, his eyes were wandering, and he was obviously in trouble. Udian waited patiently for half a minute and stamped his foot:

"Just tell me what you want me to do! - Even if I have to carry these moonlight sands and go to the center of the secret realm, I will go!"

"Yes, Grete." Elder Fahim advised slowly from the side:

"Repairing the Elf Secret Realm has been our dream for thousands of years. To this end, we have lost countless compatriots. What you see in the cemetery is only a small part. If we can succeed, we are also willing to make more sacrifices...

…”

He looked around, and every elf he looked at nodded firmly to him. Elder Fahim patted his chest gently:

"Including me, an old man, it's not like I can't be sacrificed. Just tell me what needs to be done."

But I can't just let people sacrifice themselves. And the number of elves is so small, they can't even afford to sacrifice...

Grete smiled bitterly in his heart. He took a deep breath, threw all the messy thoughts behind his head, and began to design the experimental method:

"Let's first take half of the Yueming Sand and repeat the experiment. This time, pour more burning ore into it and see how well it stops burning."

"Ok, no problem!"

Idian was gearing up. Gretel hesitated:

"If this experiment is successful, I hope you can carry these moonlight sands and go to the center of the secret realm. Pour them into the burning veins——"

"Is it enough to pour it all in?" Yudian said subconsciously. Gretel slowly shook his head:

"Don't pour it in all at once. Just like you did before, dig some ore and put it into the moonlight sand. Watch it burn out, then dig out some more and put it in... By the way, remember to put a lot of crushed lead in the moonlight sand.

piece!"

"What? I still have to carry hundreds of pounds of broken lead?"

Idian's legs went weak, and he was already considering whether to dismantle his lead armor and throw it directly into the moonlight sand. Gretel was still hesitating:

"Actually, 50 pounds is really too little... This kind of thing is only useful if it is poured down in tons..."

How many tons of borax were poured into Chernobyl at that time?

Chernobyl is still just a nuclear reactor with limited fuel. Here in the Elf Secret Realm, it seems that the entire uranium mine is on fire...

Even for a simple experiment, it would take a ton of borax to be useful, right?

However, a whole ton of borax, not to mention the question of whether Udian can carry it on his back - he has space equipment, so he can ignore this for the time being - after it falls, he has to stir it, right?

Stirring requires a lot of radiation, right?

During the Chernobyl incident, it seemed that a helicopter fell down... What should we do now? A flying monster? Or a flying golem? Or a human force throwing it in from the edge?

Forget it, I don’t want to think about this for now. Let’s gather enough borax first... Do we still want to go for a run outside the forest? A round trip for a month? Or, this time we only need borax, so there are not so many people going there, so the speed can be faster?

"If it's Yueming Sand, I still have some here." Elder Fahim interjected slowly. He glanced at the surprised Grete:

"What are you doing? Moonlight sand can be used to make medicine and alchemy materials. It has some uses. It's not easy to go out here at the outpost. I have a lot of things like this that can be stored for a long time.

"

This "a lot" was really beyond Grete's expectation. Elder Fahim dragged out a huge wooden box, which was full, and filled it with a whole box of translucent white moon sand. He pointed at Grete with his hand.

special:

"Take it and use it as much as you want."

... This box is estimated to be more than one cubic meter... According to the density of borax, it can weigh almost 2 tons... Are you going to use it until the end of time...

As long as it is not made into boric acid solution and washed in large quantities, everyone who comes out of the radiation area will be washed one by one. If it is purely for medicinal purposes, even if you are an immortal species, it can be used until you are buried, right?

Grete cursed crazily. He requisitioned all the borax without hesitation, leaving only one kilogram for the elder. Then he mixed it with broken lead blocks of equal volume—not equal weight—and gave them to Idian:

"It's up to you, boss! - Wait, draw my blood first!"

Udian bravely went in again. This time, when he came out, he was beaming with joy, and every hair was exuding joy:

"It works! It really works! - Little Gretel, I followed your instructions and shoveled the burning ores in piece by piece, and they really went out! In the end, I poured the entire box of Yueming Sand into a fire port,

That fire mouth was actually suppressed a little!"

That is the immortal fire, the eternal fire!

How many seniors and legendary masters have worked hard to suppress it a little bit. As soon as the magic power disappears, the eternal fire will rekindle!

Now, when a box of Yueming Sand is poured down, the burning ore can be extinguished. This method is so simple!

"Sit down first, sit down first." Gretel pressed him down forcefully, drew blood, examined his body under a microscope, and performed various body examinations. Idian sat still obediently, and still couldn't stop talking:

"It's just moonlight sand, just pour it in! It's not expensive! It's such a big box, it doesn't cost a single gold coin, so transportation is a little troublesome! The lead blocks are not expensive, you can buy them casually...

"

"So, how much moonlight sand is needed to stop the burning of the entire ore vein?"

Grete finished a blood smear and couldn't help but ask after hearing his lively words. Yudian didn't even think about it:

"According to previous experiments, if you mix a box of moonlight sand and broken lead blocks with one-tenth of the box of ore, there will definitely be no problem. If you add one-fifth of the box, it will be a bit troublesome. Let's see if it can be mixed evenly.

Adding one third of it is probably not enough..."

"What about the whole vein?"

Idian fell silent. He is a warrior, not a spellcaster, let alone a legendary level spellcaster who masters the core secrets of the elven realm. How big is the entire mineral vein?

As far as he could see, there were countless gaps on the mountain top in the center of the Elf Secret Realm, and there were dots of light everywhere. And beyond the top of the mountain, there were former residential areas, gardens, schools, and martial arts venues...

Idian didn't want to think about it. But it was said that this place was chosen to build the settlement because it was located on a mineral vein rich in magic...

Gretel stared at the microscope, swiping, swiping, and filling up a piece of paper. After comparing it with the previous data, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and asked:

"How many reserves does this vein have? How many tons, or how many tens of thousands of tons?"

"have no idea……"

"How much area does this vein cover?"

"have no idea……"

"Okay, how big is the entire Elf Secret Realm? How high is the mountain in the center? Where there may be mineral veins, how big do you estimate they are, and how deep are the mineral veins buried?"

"The center of the secret realm... has a radius of about 30 miles." Idian thought slowly:

"The mountain in the center is not very high. It is less than 500 meters from the ground. There is a burning range of mineral veins around it...at least, it is 10 miles away, right?"

Gretel did a quick mental calculation: 500 meters, times the diameter of 10 miles, times the density... Oh, I don't want to forget it...

"The Indestructible Lord of the Dazhai"

In short, if you throw in hundreds of thousands of tons of borax, you should be able to do it, right?
