The northern part of the Darfur Plateau is part of the Sahara Desert and has a typical Gobi Desert desert landscape.
The area of this region is about 300,000 square kilometers.
In this desolate plateau desert.
A construction team of 500 people is secretly digging a huge tunnel deep into the plateau at the edge of the oasis on the east side of the plateau.
Shabuin, the leader of the construction team, looked at the tablet in his hand, which showed an excavation plan. The length of this tunnel is about 200 kilometers.
They have been digging for more than half a year, and now only the last few dozen kilometers are left.
Don’t think that a construction team of 500 people is small. In fact, due to the application of a large number of automated engineering equipment, new technologies, and engineering-assisted organisms, their construction scale is comparable to an engineering team of tens of thousands, and the efficiency is very high and the construction speed is very high.
Very fast too.
Behind their construction team, there is another construction team. That construction team is responsible for building node underground cities. A node underground city needs to be built every 50 kilometers along the tunnel.
While Shabuin and his construction team were busy digging the tunnel, a train arrived at their temporary camp along the tunnel track.
Shabuin quickly drove his electric car to the camp.
In the design and planning center, dozens of architectural designers, urban planners, and underground construction engineers are busy working on a large project.
For example, the Shabuyin construction team in front of us has a camp train with 86 carriages, which can accommodate 500 employees living here for a long time.
The two chatted for a few minutes, and Su Qiesi also entered the topic: "In about half a month, the chairman will come to the Darfur Plateau for inspection. You must hurry up for the remaining 27 kilometers."
"Don't worry! I won't be polite to the company."
The width of this super tunnel is very large, and its diameter is usually about 30 meters, which is the same specification as the vacuum ring pipe of Motor Island Space City.
Suchisi looked at the design model of the holographic projection.
Therefore, the Coral Construction Group specially customized a train-type "RV". Due to the ultra-wide gauge, this train has a relatively large carriage size and usually consists of 50 to 150 carriages.
Seeing that the supplies were completed and the shift staff had handed over the work, Suchesi took the train back to Atron Oasis City.
The middle-aged man with a messy beard spread his hands with bloodshot eyes: "Many situations have been simulated, including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, asteroid impacts, and nuclear bomb blasts. They have all been tested. The situation can only be considered good or bad."
Of course, the company will also consider the physical and mental health of the construction workers. Usually this kind of work requires one month of work and one month of rest, and the couple works on the construction site together.
The entire design model is very grand.
But if the internal combustion engine is used extensively, it will still cause unnecessary trouble.
"The chairman is coming over?" Shaboyin's eyes widened.
He turned to another designer and asked: "Dr. Rosie, are there any problems with the design of the monitoring system?"
Human beings are still too insignificant in the face of the power of nature.
"Okay!" Shabuin immediately put away his curiosity: "The last 27 kilometers will take about 11 days. I will speed up the progress as soon as possible."
To be precise, the temporary camp of the construction team is actually a train.
"Don't ask, this is a confidential project." Suchisi did not answer.
Automated loaders are already replenishing the camp train, and the 100 employees who came to change shifts this week are already wearing biomass armor and exoskeletons.
Shabuin was a little curious: "Manager, by the way, what exactly is this project for? Is it necessary to do it on such a large scale?"
Suchisi asked with great concern: "Engineer Anthony, how are the simulation tests of the dome design going?"
Although the gas balance cabin of the camp train will always monitor the composition of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide in the tunnel, and release oxygen by absorbing carbon dioxide, thereby achieving the stability of the gas composition.
It is surrounded by six small bases with a diameter of 5 kilometers. Its main function is to arrange ancillary facilities and security facilities to ensure that no out-of-control situation occurs.
A middle-aged man with brown skin walked over and said, "Lao Sha, don't violate the company's regulations. Take a break when you need to. I don't want to see you die from overwork."
The corner of Shabuyin's mouth twitched slightly: "I just came back from a vacation in the Red Sea last week. I am in great health. Manager, you are worrying too much."
The train that just arrived was a supply train, and it was also the arrival of shift changers.
When Shabuin came to the camp train.
Su Chexi nodded slightly: "Thank you for your hard work. If you need anything, you can always ask for it and the company will consider it as appropriate."
And for safety reasons, the two tunnels are usually built simultaneously. The two tunnels are parallel to each other, and the distance is usually about 500 to 600 meters. Every 10 kilometers or so of the tunnel, a laterally connected auxiliary tunnel (about 10 meters in diameter) will be built.
.
"Well, after all, this project was formulated by the chairman himself."
Once the construction team enters the tunnel for construction, they basically have to live in the tunnel for a long time.
"That's good."
Even technologically powerful Homo sapiens companies are helpless against many natural disasters.
Returning to Atron Oasis City, he asked his assistant to arrange the placement of the employees on shift, while he went to the design and planning center of the office building.
Rosie shook her head: "No, I have completed the first draft and am now conducting a simulation test. I guess there will be no big problem."
The two chatted for a while.
"Haha, I'm not sick. The doctor said that there are several intestinal-related genes in my genes that inhibit the rate of nutrient absorption, so I am thin." Shabuin explained helplessly.
The manager of Meroe Construction, a subsidiary of Coral Construction Group, is the man in front of him, Suchisi. He patted Shabuin on the shoulder: "Why are you still so thin? Have you gone to the hospital?"
In this kind of tunnel, all engineering equipment is powered by electric power, mainly to reduce oxygen consumption inside the tunnel.
After some understanding, Suchesi updated the model of the design plan. He is also a PhD in architectural engineering, and his level of various design plans and new technology applications is almost the same as everyone present.
The train was very fast, covering a distance of more than 170 kilometers in less than forty minutes.
Su Qiesi also felt helpless about this.
In the middle is a flat pie-shaped hollow structure with a diameter of 100 kilometers and an internal height of 500 meters.
Kraft, who looked calm, replied confidently: "I have added nuclear bombs to the self-destruction system, as well as gamma ray cannons, and I will never let anything about this project leak out."
Even if the construction team employees are equipped with bio-based armor and do not need to obtain oxygen from the air, the oxygen concentration inside the pipeline still needs to be maintained within a reasonable range.
"Kraft, how's your security system doing?"
He then asked others about the part they were responsible for. The only problem now was what to do with the excavated earth and stones.
After all, this is to hollow out a huge underground space with a diameter of 100 kilometers and a height of 500 meters.
So he had to find a way to make use of these rocks and soil.
This is not only to reduce the input of external materials, but also to avoid attracting attention.
