614: Chapter 80 The Trouble Nad Sigein_1 614: Chapter 80 The Trouble Nad Sigein_1 Entering the building at the heart of Ava’s description, they saw a round hall that stretched hundreds to thousands of square ters.
Four large doors were symtrically distributed within the hall; aside from the door they just entered through, three other tal doors were tightly closed, their destinations unknown.
Scattered across the curving wall of the hall were more than ten small doors.
These doors looked similar to the elevators they had seen in the Tower of Colossus, each door accompanied by directional arrows pointing up and down.
It seed like they were a more advanced version of the Goblin elevators they had encountered before.
“The door on the left leads to the energy supply centre, which supplies energy for all the buildings in the 500-square-kilotre research centre,” Ava explained.
“Every facility within this demiplane derives its energy from this centre.
Inside the energy supply center, there are high-powered energy extraction devices that, via a passage within the pit at the foot of Felryas Mountain, draw a vast amount of Leyline Energy from deep underground.
This energy is then transported to the supply centre through a spatial energy transmission channel, and the centre imdiately distributes it to each laboratory and residential building within the research centre.
I’ve checked before after space interference, the energy consumption of all the labs is running normally.
In other words, even those labs swallowed into the void are still intact, just like they were in normal tis.
This is one of the reasons why I thought Laboratory No.9 might still be alright; only the Crystalline Network had been destroyed.”
“Is it really appropriate to place the energy supply centre at the core area?” Freya, who was quite knowledgeable about Goblin technology, couldn’t help but ask, “The core area should be a very important place, right?
Including the offices of so big shots should also be here, putting the energy supply centre here, isn’t this akin to the bigwigs sitting on a dangerous Crystal Energy bomb when working?”
“The energy supply centre is different from other buildings that use crystals for power,” Ava explained, “Using crystals indeed involves significant dangers because crystals might explode, but these Leyline energies will never be as dangerous.”
“But this still sounds unsafe; after all, you’re storing a large amount of energy,” Freya comnted, “The more energy you store, the more likely it is to explode, isn’t it?
That’s why current Mage Towers and Energy Storage Pools are constructed safely, far from impacting the main structure of a Mage Tower, for fear that any abnormalities leading to a Storage Pool exploding.”
“There are no storage pools here, or rather, the storage pools here are different from what you imagine,” Ava replied.
“The storage pool here is more like an ergency asure; the stored energy is only enough for the research centre’s consumption for ten minutes.
Even if it does explode, it wouldn’t break through the building’s protection.”
“Then how do you sustain the operations of the entire area?” Freya voiced her confusion, “Such a small storage pool can’t be enough.”
“Extract on-demand, apply on-demand,” Ava answered succinctly, “Draw as much as you use.
When it’s not being used, the energy transfer spatial channel won’t deliver energy back.
This ensures the maximum safety of the research centre.
The only worry is if soone damages the energy extraction device, after which the centre could collapse.
However, the centre also has a backup Leyline Energy extraction device.
If the main device malfunctions, it will kick in, and the Joint Governnt will imdiately dispatch a repair team deep underground.
Although, from the ti the research centre was built until now, no such crisis has occurred.”
“This approach indeed solves the risk of storage pools, but considering the current circumstances, it doesn’t seem too viable,” Vivian remarked regretfully, “But maybe, several hundred to a thousand years later when Magitech develops to a certain stage, we could use this thod to solve the issues with storage pools.”
“Moving onto the door to the right of the hall, which leads to the control area,” Ava continued, “All the separate sections within the research centre, every lab in each section, every room within every building, even every piece of research equipnt within each room, can be adjusted from the control area.
At the sa ti, I can control them from within there.
Part of my entity exists in the control area, as do Risha, Andy, and Julie.”
“They all also…” Catherine hadn’t even finished her question when Ava interrupted, “They are not like ; they don’t have their divine intelligences and are rely functioning control centres.
I am the only special exception in the entire Goblin Empire.”
“Alright, please continue,” Catherine gestured apologetically: “Sorry for interrupting.”
“I can observe hundreds of lab buildings, tens of thousands of large labs, and several hundred thousand pieces of research equipnt from here,” Ava continued, “Every single lab, even each large equipnt, has corresponding monitors for constant observation.
For this reason, the core area had to set aside hundreds of rooms as control rooms; otherwise, there’d be no place for the monitors.”
“Does this an that those researchers work under constant supervision?” Catherine inquired, “And that the monitors are always present?”
“The monitors are for the equipnt, not the people operating the equipnt.
There is a considerable difference between the two,” Ava clarified, “Technically, goblins are a race that places a high value on privacy.
Yet even so, they don’t object to monitoring the equipnt, which indicates that it doesn’t interfere with individual privacy issues.”
“So what are you seeing in the control center now?” Pannis asked, “What’s happening in the areas with no response?
Is everything normal like in the energy supply center, or you can’t see the interior situation?”
“From the energy distribution perspective, everything is running smoothly, including so low-temperature, high-temperature, or constant temperature preservation devices.
The energy distribution of various devices has no abnormalities, which ans spatial function pipelines have not been damaged,” Ava replied, “However, from the equipnt monitoring perspective, it’s all blank.
I cannot receive any return signals, indicating that the information transmission channels have been completely severed.
Looking at what happened in Laboratory No.9 just now, this result is quite normal, because the energy supply channels for spaces only exist as images and are not physically stored in this space, while information transmission channels, though invisible and intangible, do exist in this space.
If the space is torn apart, they will definitely be severed.”
“As for these thirteen elevators, they all lead to so offices on the upper floors,” Ava said, “Various administrative organizations are here, and those allowed in are high-level managers of various laboratories.
I won’t go into further details with you, as you probably have no interest in these matters.”
“Indeed,” Catherine nodded, “So, this large door we are about to open leads to the ergency shelter, right?”
“Correct.” As Ava opened the large door which led to a spiral staircase heading downwards.
On one side of the wall were four elevators, Ava explained, “The staircase is an ergency exit, only to be used at the most critical monts when all the elevators lose their energy supply.
At other tis no one uses the stairs.
There are a total of six underground levels here, each with its function, such as the hazardous material storage warehouse, the armory, and the puppet repair workshop.
The deepest part of the sixth floor is the ergency shelter.”
“The ergency shelter is vast, very vast.” Ava instructed everyone to board the called elevator and pressed the button for the lowest floor.
The elevator was a bit small for humans, only about two ters tall.
Aside from Vivian, everyone else could almost touch the top of the elevator when they reached up, a height not typically adhered to in building standards.
Thinking about it, the elevator mainly served the goblins, and the average height of the goblins was about 140 centiters.
For them, this height of an elevator was quite fitting, although it would be a bit of a squeeze for the Three-eyed Divine People.
As the elevator descended, Ava continued, “It can shelter a thousand people at once and can be considered an underground castle with complete living facilities, including automatic crops planting devices.
Besides, in the low-temperature vacuum storage room, there is enough food for a thousand people to eat for fifty years.
Unfortunately, the goblins never had the opportunity to use them.”
“It sounds like the goblins take shelter asures seriously,” Pannis mused, “I always feel that they are too prepared for disaster, and I wonder if other crucial Goblin facilities also have similar ergency shelters?”
Ava fell silent again, but Pannis spoke before she had a chance, “Alright, I already know the answer.
Conserve your energy, conserve your energy.”
“My energy supply is virtually unlimited.
There’s no need for replenishnt,” Ava’s voice almost conjured the image of her rolling her eyes, “Don’t use this technique to get to talk anymore.
Sotis it’s better for you not to know things, not for my own sake, but for yours.
If possible, I’d like to tell you everything now.
It would be more advantageous for , but unfortunately, I can’t.”
Pannis nodded and whispered, “I understand.
It won’t be long before you can tell us everything.”
The elevator shook slightly, halting its descent.
The door swooshed open.
Just outside the elevator was a narrow corridor, no more than several tens of ters long, ending in a frightfully thick tal door.
The door seed entirely sealed, likely preventing even air from entering.
“Please go ahead.
The healing device is inside,” Ava’s voice returned to its original tallic quality.
“And so is the trouble,” Pannis smirked and walked up to the door.
As it automatically swung open, he sighed, “Trouble is also inside, right?”
“Correct, both the healing device and the trouble are inside,” Ava responded calmly, “The trouble nad Sigein is only a problem for .” (To be continued.
