The seed bank built by the Lucians was not in its capital, but was closer to the Arctic Circle.

This is not because Lucia has a bad mind. She knows that the temperature will drop and she still puts the seed bank in this position to wait for freezing. It is because the construction time of the seed bank is not before the disaster comes, but that there were related plans very early before this.

In fact, countries around the world have launched similar plans more than ten years ago. For example, the most famous international seed bank has been in operation for more than ten years and is built in Norway, located more than a thousand kilometers away from the Arctic.

The Lucians also formulated a similar plan at the beginning, but because the domestic economic situation was not good at that time, the project did not receive enough financial support, so it has always been intermittent.

The seed bank address is an abandoned Soviet-era missile silo. Even the refrigeration equipment that preserves seeds is operated by the seed bank and then it is fully purchased one after another.

So when the seed bank was built, there was the idea of ​​using the cold of the Arctic Circle to protect these precious seeds.

But no one expected to encounter a world-class disaster like a meteorite impact that is rare in a million years, and the entire human civilization would be almost destroyed.

After the disaster was confirmed to happen, Lucia's official urgently launched a series of plans to ensure that the entire country could continue. The seed bank was naturally valued, received sufficient financial and resource support, and was able to be successfully established. A large number of plant seeds and animal embryos were stored, and 5,000 genetic samples were even preserved.

According to Lucia's official plan, if countries around the world could not stop the impact of meteorites at that time, and the severely damaged countries that Lucia suffered were on the verge of shattering, then the seed bank would be the hope of restarting Lucia.

But no one expected that the global temperature would drop to such a terrifying level after the disaster.

The low temperature of more than 100 degrees below zero makes it difficult for even missile launchers built in the Soviet era to resist. The entire seed bank has now become a veritable ice cellar. Not only does it take to consider refrigeration, but it also needs to find ways to heat the internal space to avoid the low temperature directly freezing the plant seeds and animal embryos.

In the previous winter, the Seed Bank survived with Lucia's official support, but it was still affected to a considerable extent.

Originally they could still support it, but with the invasion of the epidemic, Lucia was almost paralyzed, and the official had no time to support them, which made the situation in the seed bank become critical and they could not survive the next cold winter.

Moreover, the maintenance personnel of the seed bank also fell ill due to the cold. They were short of staff, shortage of supplies and the upcoming extreme cold were enough to completely destroy this already precarious seed bank.

Sitting on the plane, listening to Lucia's staff introducing the situation of the seed bank and feeling the slightly hostile gaze projected by the female scientist beside him, Chen Xin felt that he had taken a hot potato.

Although I knew it was a pit, I had to step on it, which could probably describe Chen Xin's current situation.

But at least with mental preparation, Ye Yu and the others have also made preparations. In general, Chen Xin doesn't think this trick will make him lose.

The only thing he was worried about was whether Lucians would play any external tricks.

If Chen Xin thought that the other party could not get anything out of Lucian people after only using the time of construction of the energy tower, and wanted to get key technologies from him at work, he thought that he could not get anything out. After all, after knowing the purpose of Lucians and Ye Yu and the others, Chen Xin still felt that he could keep the secret.

But if the Lucians send a KGB swallow or something to play tricks like seduction, Chen Xin feels that even if he can keep the secret, he will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Don’t think this kind of thing is impossible. During the Cold War period, KGB’s swallows were famous. Many scientists who defected to Suvia were lured by swallows.

They are all spy elites who have been carefully trained by KGB, and are especially good at luring targets to take the bait and stealing various confidential information. They were truly famous in those days and were terrified.

If you have to give an example, the Black Widow in "Avengers" is a classic portrayal of KGB Swallows, and even the real Swallow's ability to steal intelligence is even more terrifying.

But despite worrying, the work still needs to be done.

On the transport plane that Chen Xin and the others are now riding, there is one of the three energy tower cores purchased by Lucia from Yan Kingdom, which will be used to build an energy tower in the seed bank that is enough to ensure that the seed bank can operate smoothly in the cold winter.

"Mr. Chen Xin, after the construction of the energy tower is completed, it will transport a large amount of heat to the seed bank to resist the cold winter. However, if the cold winter passes and we don't need so much heat, how should we adjust the output of the energy tower?" On the plane, an engineering and technician sent by Lucia official was asking Chen Xin some technical questions.

Because the seed bank is close to the extreme circle, under the current extremely cold and low temperature, the Lucians no longer have many available modes of transportation, so they borrowed the Yanguo transport aircraft and packed the core of the energy tower and the engineering and technical personnel to transport it to the seed bank.

This also gave Lucia's engineering and technical staff the opportunity to contact Chen Xin.

Faced with this problem, Chen Xinluo thought about it and explained: "The output power of the energy tower can be adjusted. This is very simple. When the energy tower is not required to operate, just close the pipeline of the conveying medium."

Although Chen Xin answered the other party’s question, he did not mean to explain in depth.

But Lucia's engineering and technical personnel were obviously not satisfied with the answer, so he asked: "But if this happens, will it affect the mining of geothermal heat? Will insufficient pressure on the conveying medium cause damage to the underlying formation?"

"At present, as far as I know, there is no such thing. Even in winter, the temperature in southern my country is not lower than your current temperature. Our energy tower can operate well. I think the energy tower here can operate well." Chen Xin was a little alert when he saw that the other party was unwilling to give in, and did not continue.

After answering the questions of Lucia's engineering and technical personnel perfunctorily, Chen Xin stopped talking to him and asked the Lucia's responsible official: "How long will it take to arrive at the destination?"

"At our current flight speed, there should be half an hour left." Lucia's official in charge of the construction of the energy tower looked at his watch and replied respectfully to Chen Xin.
