Swoosh! Swoosh!

The room was very quiet, with only the sound of Tang Rui flipping through the materials. Nobody spoke at this time.

Twenty or so minutes later, Tang Rui finished reading the materials, and at the same time, Red Lotus simulated the data from the materials.

However, the result of the simulation showed no problems.

“The data on the materials is fine, and the theoretical deduction is also correct As for why the magnetic field strength is insufficient, I can’t say for sure right now. Can you take me to see the equipment?” Tang Rui said with a frown after putting down the materials.

“No problem, the equipment is in the laboratory,” replied Professor Li, getting up immediately to take Tang Rui there.

He was the most anxious and frustrated at the moment.

Arriving at the laboratory, a device, the size of an MRI machine and without an outer shell, appeared before Tang Rui.

The construction of the entire device was actually quite simple.

In the middle was a vacuum tube, surrounded by magnetic field acceleration coils, equipped with various sensors and control devices. That was it. Simple to say, but making it was not that simple.

“Can we start the experiment once?” Tang Rui asked after looking at the equipment.

“Yes.”

Professor Li immediately arranged for some staff to prepare to start the experimental equipment.

After tinkering for about fifteen minutes, the device started.

Tang Rui watched the computer screen, observing the various data displayed. Initially, the magnetic field strength climbed steadily without any issues. But when the magnetic field strength reached 178T, some fluctuations appeared in the data, though the magnetic field strength continued to increase. However, the moment the magnetic field strength reached 180T, the data began to change erratically, with the magnetic field strength data dropping directly to 169T, then continuing to decrease until it stabilized at 163T. “Interesting.”

After watching a complete experiment, Tang Rui discovered quite a few things much clearer than just reading the materials.

Why did the magnetic field strength decrease?

Because some energy disappeared.

Or rather, transformed.

The device used electrical energy to create a magnetic field, but the moment the magnetic field strength reached 180T, a part of the magnetic field, under unknown influences, transformed back into electrical energy.

To describe it as electrical energy isn’t quite accurate.

More precisely, it was an electric plasma wrapped in a magnetic field. However, this plasma was very thin, as the energy forming it had undergone two transformations, resulting in significant loss.

Why did it form plasma?

Who knew.

Tang Rui was genuinely confused; he was also bewildered.

A few minutes later, the experiment ended, and Professor Li looked expectantly at Tang Rui.

“Professor Li, I have some ideas about the specific problem, but I need to go back and study it before I can give you an answer,” Tang Rui said, forced to admit he had some leads, under the hopeful gaze of Professor Li.

“Okay, then I’ll trouble Professor Tang,” said Professor Li, relieved upon hearing Tang Rui’s words.

Now, everyone had a consensus.

That is, as long as Tang Rui takes action, there’s basically no problem he can’t solve. It’s just a matter of whether you can persuade him to help.

“No trouble at all. Could you provide me with the materials and design drawings of this device?”‘ Tang Rui asked.

“No problem, I will package the data and upload it to the secure data repository. Professor Tang can download it directly.”

“Great, then I’ll be off.”

Don’t rush off. I’ve already booked a restaurant, how about having a meal before you leave?”

Persuaded by Professor Li and Professor Ouyang, Tang Rui stayed for dinner before leaving on a private plane.

In the following two days, Tang Rui earnestly studied this special magnetic field change at home, wondering why the magnetic field transformed into plasma.

Logically, it shouldn’t.

One was magnetic, and the other was electric (though not purely electric).

How could they mix together?

The previous simulation by Red Lotus did not reveal this phenomenon, but after this experiment, it was discovered that the magnetic field undergoes a special change after exceeding a strength of 180T.

Don’t ask why it wasn’t discovered before.

Because such a strong magnetic field had never been created before. Even the magnetic field strength needed for controlled nuclear fusion had never exceeded 160T, let alone reaching 180T.

AS Tang Rui’s research deepened, he discovered a special physical model for this plasma.

After reducing the magnetic field strength, increasing the conversion efficiency, and maximizing the instantaneous energy output, among other methods.

This low-end version of the plasma magnetic field became something everyone is familiar with, but something nobody has seen before.

Ball lightning!

When he first created ball lightning in the device, he was quite shocked.

Ball lightning has been discovered by humanity a long time ago, but its formation principle is still an unsolved mystery.

Tang Rui hadn’t expected it.

He was just helping out, but he solved this world’s unsolved mystery and figured out the structural model of ball lightning.

“Red Lotus, continue to input energy. Let me see the energy limit of ball lightning, Tang Rui excitedly said to Red Lotus, watching the stable ball lightning inside the magnetic field.

Ball lightning could absorb energy.

This is related to its special model, but this model is very active. If not controlled well, the entire ball lightning will explode, turning into countless bolts of lightning.

The ball lightning in the device in front of Tang Rui now was one of his research results during this period, a stable state ball lightning model. Magnetic field, magnetic poles, current carrying, voltage, etc, must be precisely controlled to create a stable ball lightning.

“Master, please leave the room to avoid danger.”

After hearing Tang Rui’s order, Red Lotus didn’t directly charge the ball lightning but asked him to leave the room first.

Because the ball lightning, when charged, could be very powerful when it explodes.

After Tang Rui left the room.

Red Lotus began to charge the ball lightning.

The ball lightning inside the magnetic field, upon receiving the charge, started to flicker continuously.

Its brightness went from that of a five-watt bulb to a five-hundred-watt bulb. Tang Rui, in another room, watched the holographic projection of the internal model data of the ball lightning.

Under continuous charging, the interior of the ball lightning began to accumulate energy, like filling an empty water tank.

The powerful energy supply of the nuclear fusion reactor began to crazily charge the ball lightning.

Within just a few minutes, sixty percent of the reactor’s electrical energy was absorbed by the ball lightning.

Until the energy accumulated inside the ball lightning filled it up, starting to affect the stability of its structure.

From a macro perspective, this was visible as bulges appearing on the surface of the ball lightning.

Boom!

The next second, a thunderous roar sounded.

The ball lightning exploded.

Suddenly, the entire room began to flash with electricity and thunder, with one ball lightning model after another appearing in the room.

Then, chains of lightning filled the entire room, forming a net from heaven to earth.

For a moment, the room was filled with dancing electric snakes and constant thunder.

The visual effects were maximized.

At the same time, these lightning bolts, unlike those of a Tesla coil, were not just for show; they were very powerful.

As Tang Rui watched the scene on the holographic projection, his eyes began to shine..
