Magic? My Iron Torrent will sweep it all away!

Chapter 184 Are you crazy? Just pour nuclear wastewater in!

Lin Mo glanced at him, then at Academician Qian Zhenhua, who was also looking expectantly beside him.

"Can."

The eyes of the two elderly academicians lit up instantly.

"But there are two requirements." Lin Mo held up two fingers.

"First, start with a small amount to ensure the purification process is absolutely controllable and will not leak."

"Second, control the amount of 'feeding' carefully. Don't give too much at once, or you'll burn the roots, or... kill them."

"Understood! Understood!" Liu Chengen nodded excitedly.

"Let's start with the appetizers! I understand!"

He turned to his assistant and instructed him:

"Go! Apply for it immediately and transfer ten tons of the nuclear wastewater stored at the nuclear power plant!"

"Also! Have them prepare a low-enriched nuclear reactor and send it over to me!"

Upon hearing this, the assistant immediately ran to make the contact.

"Boom!"

Less than ten minutes after the order was given, a muffled engine roar came from afar.

Several large engineering excavators and transplanting vehicles drove over.

Precious trees, each requiring several people to encircle, were dug up, excess branches were pruned, and then loaded onto trucks and transported away.

The whole process was smooth and efficient. In less than an hour, the area within a 200-meter radius of the World Tree had been turned into an open space.

On the other side, Academician Qian Zhenhua, along with a group of researchers, was busily setting up various precision instruments that had just been unloaded from the transport plane. Rows of display screens were lit up, emitting a faint blue light.

Looking at the bustling scene, Lin Mo suddenly remembered a question.

Since departing from the Arctic base, we haven't had a drop of water.

He himself doesn't care, but the two national treasures can't.

He turned and whispered a few instructions to one of his guards.

A dozen minutes later, boxes of steaming hot meals were delivered.

Thus, an extremely bizarre scene unfolded at the New Kyoto Central Ecological Park.

A group of national treasure-level scientists, some squatting and some sitting on the ground, each with a boxed lunch in hand, wolfed down their food while staring intently at the instrument screens in front of them.

"They're here!"

Someone shouted.

Everyone put down their lunchboxes and stood up at the same time.

In the distance, a fully enclosed special transport truck, escorted by several armored vehicles, slowly drove up.

The car body is painted with a striking yellow and black clover radiation symbol.

The National Security Bureau personnel immediately stepped forward, set up an outer perimeter cordon, and cleared all soldiers, including Li Wei, from the scene.

"Everyone, change into your protective suits!"

Liu Chengen gave the order.

Lin Mo and a group of core researchers skillfully put on heavy lead-lined radiation protection suits and helmets, instantly filling the entire park with a solemn and tense atmosphere.

One by one, huge special alloy canisters marked with radiation symbols were carefully unloaded from the heavy truck.

"Connect to tank number one!"

Several equally fully armed engineers attached a thick hose to the tank, and carefully buried the other end into the soil at the base of the World Tree.

Liu Chengen walked to a table with instruments on it, took a deep breath, and looked up at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo nodded to him.

"Ready! First test, dose: 100 ml!"

After setting the dosage, Liu Chengen pressed a button on the instrument panel.

"drop!"

A radiation monitoring instrument connected to a soil sensor started displaying fluctuating numbers on its screen instantly.

【0.1 uSv/h】

【15.7 uSv/h】

【88.3 uSv/h】

【274.5 uSv/h】

The numbers are skyrocketing!

Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the screen.

The growth abruptly stopped the moment the number broke through the 300 mark.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, the numbers began to fall back at an incredible speed!

【241.0 uSv/h】

【150.2 uSv/h】

【67.8 uSv/h】

【10.1 uSv/h】

【0.1 uSv/h】

In no more than thirty seconds, the radiation level dropped to zero!

"Check the surrounding environment!" Qian Zhenhua immediately ordered.

Several researchers, armed with portable Geiger counters, scanned the area around the World Tree inch by inch.

"Report! No residual radiation!"

"Report! Soil sample radiation levels are normal!"

"Report! Air radiation levels are normal!"

Perfectly absorbed!

"Great!" Liu Chengen excitedly pumped his fist.

"Second test! Dosage, one liter!!"

The valve was remotely opened again.

This time, the radiation monitor readings skyrocketed to four digits!

【1890 uSv/h】!

This is a terrifying number that can cause permanent damage to the human body in a short period of time!

But the same script played out again.

The value remained at its peak for less than a minute before it began to plummet.

Ten minutes later.

【0.1 uSv/h】

"Report! No radiation leakage whatsoever! Perfect absorption!"

A suppressed cheer erupted from the crowd!

"Hahaha! Hahahaha!" Liu Chengen took off his helmet, his face flushed red, looking like a madman!

He looked at the World Tree, whose light seemed to have brightened even more, as if looking at a baby crying for milk.

"The appetizer is over!"

He turned and excitedly gave orders to the engineers at the control panel.

"Open all the valves!!"

Upon receiving the instruction, the engineer took a deep breath and reached out to push down the red main valve control lever.

"Buzz—"

The flexible tube connected to the roots of the World Tree jolted violently, and the liquid inside began to flow.

Ten tons of highly concentrated nuclear wastewater flowed unreservedly into the root system of the World Tree.

The idea of ​​directly irrigating a tree with nuclear wastewater was beyond the comprehension of the engineering corps.

"Radiation index!" Academician Qian Zhenhua's voice rang out, tinged with tension.

All eyes were focused on the largest monitoring screen.

【5800uSv/h】

【12000uSv/h】

【35000uSv/h】

【89000uSv/h】

The index soared at an alarming rate, and every jump in the numbers sent shivers down the spines of the researchers present.

"The altitude monitor has changed!" a researcher shouted, pointing to another screen.

The number representing the height of the World Tree began to steadily rise.

Under everyone's focused gaze, the small tree, radiating a verdant glow, grew upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Its branches became thicker, and new tender leaves sprouted from the tips of the branches and quickly unfolded.

The halo grew increasingly intense, enveloping the surrounding area in a soft green glow.

"Three meters and one inch."

"It's still growing, 3.2 meters."

"It's already three and a half meters tall!"

The researchers' voices were filled with barely suppressed excitement.

Academicians Liu Chengen and Qian Zhenhua couldn't help but approach the World Tree at the closest safe distance.

Eyes hidden beneath the protective suit were fixed on the miraculous growth process, unwilling to miss a single detail.

The World Tree has successfully surpassed the four-meter mark in height.

"It works, it works completely," Liu Chengen clenched his fist and said in a low voice.

"It seems that radiant energy is what it needs!"

Just as everyone was basking in the glory of this successful experiment, a problem arose.
