After some searching, Su Han felt that the cooling in his protective suit was not as strong as before, and the temperature inside the suit began to rise.
Su Han looked at the sun in the sky. At this time, the sun in the sky was hanging higher than when they first arrived. Based on the sun's altitude, it was about 10:30 AM. Looking at the outside temperature, it had already risen to 55 degrees Celsius.
Most importantly, the battery display bar was red. Only six percent of the battery power remained.
Under these circumstances, it would be unwise to stay here any longer.
Therefore, Su Han said, "The battery in the protective suit is almost depleted. It's time for us to go back. Everyone, get ready."
They then transported the items they had found, whether trash or treasure, to the vicinity of the portal. This was so that these items could be transported back tomorrow, once the portal's capacity for carrying luggage was freed up.
Meanwhile, Chu Shi compiled all the data detected by the probe he brought onto a micro-storage card.
Su Han and the other six took off their protective suits. Immediately, a wave of heat and a foul odor assaulted them.
The surrounding stench flooded their nostrils, and the scorching heat baked them.
Several people waved their hands, trying to cool themselves down, but only hot air came.
"It's so smelly, so hot!"
"Staying here for a minute is torture."
"No, no, even a second here is torture!"
Ye Fan, Lin Dong, and Xiao Yan lamented the harsh environment.
Su Han also didn't want to linger. He instructed the portal to revert from its transparent state.
"Everyone, let's go back!"
Chu Shi and the other six placed their hands on Su Han's shoulders and passed through the portal back to the dinosaur world.
They reappeared amidst the Dragon Country soldiers who were still heavily surrounding the portal.
Several staff members immediately brought over jackets for Su Han and the others to put on.
Li Chengfu emerged from a nearby tent and said, "Welcome back. How was the exploration of the third world?"
Su Han shook his head and replied, "There hasn't been much progress."
Li Chengfu said, "Then go and rest properly first."
A car started up.
Su Han and the others sat in the vehicle. The car then drove towards Canglong City, where the headquarters of the Otherworld Development Department was located.
Upon returning to Canglong City, everyone underwent an examination first. After confirming that their bodies were not harmed, they felt relieved. Hazardous substances would be cleared when passing through the portal, but some potential harm to the body might still exist, hence the health check.
After the health check, Su Han and the others parted ways. Chu Shi, carrying the micro-storage card, went directly to the research institute to analyze the data with the Dragon Country scientists.
Ye Fan, Xiao Yan, Lin Dong, Zhou Xiaoyue, and Zi Han were summoned to the magic world's Otherworld Development branch to practice magic.
As for Su Han, he no longer needed to practice space magic, so he did not go to the magic world. Instead, Su Han went to the research institute to observe Chu Shi and the others analyzing the data.
As Su Han entered the research institute, he saw a hall filled with computer screens, resembling a satellite launch center. On the various screens in this hall, a large amount of data was displayed.
The screens here were all connected to a supercomputer located in the basement of the institute. This supercomputer had been transported from Blue Star and assembled not long ago. It was specifically used for analyzing data from other worlds, primarily from the dinosaur world previously. The computational demand for the entire dinosaur world was still relatively small, so it typically used only thirty percent of its processing power.
When Su Han walked in, Chu Shi was standing there, directing researchers in their data analysis.
Su Han asked, "Chu Shi, how is the data analysis going?"
Chu Shi replied, "I've directly allocated eighty percent of the supercomputer's processing power to analyze the data. It should be completed in another half an hour."
Su Han was somewhat familiar with this supercomputer and exclaimed in surprise, "This is a supercomputer! It still takes half an hour with seventy percent of its processing power? Is the data collected by the probes that extensive? How long have you been analyzing it?"
Chu Shi said, "We've already been analyzing for an hour. The data from the third world is different from that of Blue Star, the dinosaur world, and the magic world. Furthermore, there's interference within the detected data. Therefore, it requires more time to analyze."
Su Han inquired, "Interference? What kind of interference?"
Chu Shi explained, "This interference is a type of wave that mixes electrical waves and electromagnetic waves with an unknown wave. Once this wave is added, the analysis of electrical and electromagnetic waves becomes incredibly chaotic."
Su Han recalled scenarios he had read about in various novels and said, "So, this means that this is a method used by advanced civilizations for interference, preventing lower civilizations from deciphering various signals?"
Chu Shi responded, "Deputy Minister Su Han, your explanation is very fitting. Yes, this is indeed a method used by advanced civilizations. However, it's still too early to call it interference. It could also be a form of their encryption technology."
"..."
At this time, because seventy percent of the supercomputer's processing power was being used here, the processing power allocated to other areas was reduced to below thirty percent. Why not exactly thirty percent? Because for safety reasons, the supercomputer's processing power cannot be used at one hundred percent. A margin must be left, otherwise, if the temperature rises too high, it would burn out.
Consequently, the processing power used in other areas was reduced to just over ten percent. This reduction impacted some related equipment in the dinosaur world.
At a reconnaissance outpost, a technician holding a device exclaimed in confusion, "Hmm? What's going on? Why is the data generation slowing down today?"
In the Dinosaur World Meteorological Science Research Institute, a researcher, looking at the slowing system, also wondered, "The system feels sluggish..."
...
Thirty minutes later, a researcher shouted, "Data analysis complete!"
Then, a large amount of data began to refresh on the screens. Soon, several massive folders appeared.
Chu Shi exclaimed, "It's finally analyzed!"
Chu Shi opened a folder and began to browse through it. The other researchers also started to examine the contents.
For Su Han, this information was like a foreign language. He figured that his presence here was no longer useful, and Chu Shi would inform him of the results anyway. Thus, Su Han left.
By evening, Chu Shi arrived with the results to find Su Han.
