Chapter 853: Saving the Gold Dragon Coins (Part 2)

Lin Mo didn’t expect the blonde tech-savvy little girl to still be awake so late. He wondered what she was busy with. However, staying up late was quite normal for tech enthusiasts, as their passion for various hobbies could make them lose track of time completely.

After receiving Lin Mo’s latest instructions, the blonde tech-savvy little girl excitedly sprang into action. Although her main focus was on the software and hardware of the main computer, she had some knowledge of physics and other disciplines, so she naturally understood that professional matters should be handled by professionals.

With Lin Mo’s authorization, the blonde tech-savvy little girl immediately posted a bounty in her private garden, “Ross Ville Paradise,” offering a preliminary reward of five million dollars. She planned to convert part of the newly rented warehouse into a technical laboratory to validate the technologies that came in through the bounty.

This bounty needed Lin Mo to transfer the advance payment to the transaction platform of "Ross Ville Paradise" for it to be officially in effect. Without hesitation, Lin Mo directly transferred twenty million dollars to her account.

Whether for the bounty or establishing the laboratory, it would cost a lot of money. Lin Mo granted the blonde tech-savvy little girl as much free funding as possible, with the option to add more if necessary.

To get this glutton out, Lin Mo was prepared to risk it all.

Maisha Wright followed Lin Mo’s instructions and emailed the physics expert Bob Boyce, who lived in Seattle. Now it was just a matter of waiting for Bob’s reply. The time difference between China and America was almost opposite; when it was nighttime in China, it was daytime in America. Perhaps Bob had already seen the email and was pondering a solution. Being able to create water-splitting technology, he must have exceptional knowledge in decomposition science, which was why Lin Mo specifically asked the tech-savvy girl to contact him (the Dragon Knight realized this thought was clearly naive).

Considering strategies from a physics perspective might indeed be a good idea.

Lin Mo sighed in relief; relying solely on himself, he probably wouldn’t be able to extract the gold giant dragon from the Longinus Spear. He could only hope that the technological civilization of this world could indeed work miracles.

With Lin Mo’s connections, he could secure substantial research funding and have China’s National Physics Laboratory undertake projects for him. However, doing so would only raise the concerns of the relevant department, which would be asking for trouble.

The self-built laboratory of the blonde tech-savvy little girl, Maisha Wright, was precisely what Lin Mo wanted.

Money was no longer an issue; Lin Mo had over a hundred million dollars on hand. Although he had already allocated most of it to the professional manager introduced by Sally for investment, the remaining funds were still sufficient for a while.

This five million dollar bounty wouldn’t be easy to claim, as it involved a completely new subject: extracting specified energy and components from solids. If this technology could be developed, the biggest beneficiaries wouldn’t be the gold giant dragon but the environmental protection industry.

The reason was clear: decomposing various components from a massive amount of waste meant that all garbage could be fully recycled and treated, returning to the industrial system for raw material circulation, eliminating the problem of overflowing landfills.

After transferring the cash from the bank using his tactical tablet, Lin Mo was wide awake, eagerly refreshing the bounty page on the secret technology website "Ross Ville Paradise," waiting for tech enthusiasts and scientists from around the world to take the bait. He also awaited new replies from the blonde tech-savvy little girl and Bob, the expert in the Hydrogen-Oxygen Decomposition Tank.

"Ross Ville Paradise," confined to the circle of technicians, focused more on the advancement of technology rather than pure transactions of money and technology. The bounty and trading platform served to showcase the wisdom of the technicians to society and help them earn some private research funding.

For those technicians, solving basic needs was not an issue at all. Most of them came to share the inspiration they had in technology and seek recognition and feedback.

The task that the blonde tech-savvy little girl posted for Lin Mo was particularly peculiar. Coupled with a generous reward, it immediately attracted considerable attention from many technicians, who eagerly commented in the discussion area below the bounty.

Some valuable replies sparked deep discussions, and they immersed themselves in the excitement.

Many heads are better than one; this saying exists in many cultures, not just China.

This five million dollar bounty, while not unprecedented, was still a substantial income. In just a few hours before dawn, over a hundred researchers from various disciplines left their guesses on the bounty page, even marking out different formulas and equipment needed.

The discussion topics on the bounty page in "Ross Ville Paradise" kept increasing. As the day transitioned in different time zones around the world, some logged off to rest while others woke up to join in this grand discussion. Using bold scientific ideas and careful verification principles, they sought solutions from various technological perspectives.

This was merely mutual exploration and speculation, but it delved deeply into advanced scientific fields. While no one brought a genuine solution to claim the bounty, it gave Lin Mo a glimmer of hope.

The gold giant dragon let out a sorrowful sound from inside the Longinus Spear: "I think I can still be saved."

Just as Lin Mo planned to take the tactical tablet to the cafeteria for breakfast, he heard a much-anticipated notification sound from the tactical tablet.

Lin Mo quickly opened the email system, and a joyful expression finally appeared on his face.

Good deeds are rewarded! The tech-savvy little girl forwarded Bob’s reply to him.

After receiving Lin Mo’s email, Bob didn’t take it lightly. He immediately mobilized his classmates and friends with solid technical skills, discussing for a long time in an MSN video conference. Combined with the messages in the bounty area of "Ross Ville Paradise," they initially drafted a test plan.

This was just a test plan, not a solution. It needed continuous experimentation to determine whether this design idea was feasible. If the direction was confirmed, they could continuously calibrate the plan and achieve success.

This would require procuring specialized high-tech equipment to perfect the experiment, and the test plan would deconstruct the Longinus Spear using superstring theory.

To determine whether the Longinus Spear contains the special 11-dimensional space from superstring theory within the D3-brane world of 9+1 dimensional spacetime (the real universe), special equipment is required to trigger energy resonance. It must also be assessed whether Longinus is a Bose-Einstein condensate.

Perhaps only with such profound and inscrutable physics knowledge can one comprehend the strange transformations occurring between the gold giant dragon and Longinus.

The technical terms in the email were overwhelming, and just procuring the equipment would likely be quite costly. It seemed that the twenty million dollars Lin Mo had recently given to the tech-savvy little girl might only cover a small portion of it.

Bob recommended that Lin Mo take the experimental sample to a national-level physics laboratory for such tests. Relying solely on purchasing or renting equipment would be very expensive.

In those professional laboratories, at least there were technicians who could operate the equipment correctly. Any slight operational error with such expensive, high-precision devices could easily result in immediate damage.

Bob and his friends had compiled a preliminary list of experimental equipment and manufacturers, inquiring about prices. Even so, they would still need at least eight million dollars, which meant Lin Mo’s funds for the tech-savvy girl had shrunk significantly.

The extravagant spending of the gold giant dragon truly made the Dragon Knight bleed money. Lin Mo felt exasperated, but there was no option but to accept it.

He replied to the email, asking the tech-savvy girl to arrange for the purchase of the equipment.

Technical blockades were trivial for the Foreign Affairs Department; as long as there was money, there were ways to bring things back to the country.

Let the physicists have their luck while stumbling around; Lin Mo thought, and decided to transfer all the remaining funds in his account to the tech-savvy girl, Maisha Wright.

The tech-savvy girl had a strong ability to learn and hands-on skills, and she would surely become an excellent operator quickly.

This rescue operation was gradually unfolding with an expensive and continually improving plan. As an outsider, Lin Mo could only pour money into this seemingly bottomless pit and patiently wait.

The tech-savvy girl expressed that the fire at the city gate affected the fish in the moat, saying the unforeseen disaster left her with a busy schedule. She had to complete the tasks assigned by the Staff Group while continuously learning how to use the equipment manuals for procurement.

Although the orders had been placed, it would still take at least another ten days to half a month for the equipment to arrive at the base of the Night Special Forces, which was the fastest timeline arranged by the Foreign Affairs Department.

The training course materials for the 85th enhanced training session required considerable effort from Lin Mo and his team. They flew the J-10B fighter jet multiple times for realistic tactical confrontation simulations and filmed videos with several drones for editing into video courseware.

Twelve days before the trainees arrived, these course materials finally passed approval from higher-ups and entered the printing process.

The efficiency of the designated military confidential printing factory was remarkably high; they didn’t even need to queue and immediately began typesetting and producing film plates. Within just two days, the thick textbooks, smelling of ink, were delivered to Lin Mo, Chen Jun, and Cao Yueyang, filling them with a sense of accomplishment.

Several pilots arriving simultaneously at Quzhou Military Airport were carrying their luggage and exiting the check-in area while looking for their dormitory.

“Hongbao, you are in number three dormitory, right?”

“That’s right, I’m in number three. Old Fei, which number are you in? Do you happen to be in number three too?”

“Bingo, you got it right! Here’s some good news: I don’t snore when I sleep. Xiao Ding, which number are you?”

“Me? Wait, let me check. I’m in number nine.”

“Such a pity. Hey, Captain Jin Hongbao, why aren’t you moving? What are you looking at? Is there a beauty?”

“Huh! Number one? How is that possible?”

“Number one? What number one? Hongbao, are you feverish? Didn’t you just say you were in number three? How did you end up at number one?”

“Old Fei, don’t interrupt. I’m talking about a person, not a dormitory! Let me take a closer look; no mistake, it’s number one! It’s really him!”
