Mysterious Energy

Liu Di was taken aback as well. "What's going on?"

Mo Yu said calmly, "It's just a power outage. I'm used to it."

"How could there be a power outage?"

"There's a power plant right above us!"

Liu Di was utterly baffled.

"Sigh."

Mo Yu hung his head in dejection. "Looks like I can only tell you the truth."

He pointed at the machine before them. "Neither you nor I will ever be able to make this thing work."

"Because the biggest problem we face isn't incomplete technology, but energy."

Energy?

Liu Di immediately looked around and found that the equipment itself was intact, but the hundreds of electrical distribution boxes behind it had been completely charred black.

Clearly, a massive current had passed through them, overwhelming their capacity.

In that brief moment, the entire hydroelectric plant's current had surged out, yet it had only powered the equipment for a few seconds!

Mo Yu looked grief-stricken. "It's terrifying. In 2.3 seconds, it consumed four years' worth of stored energy from the hydroelectric plant! The plan to build a power plant solely to supply it has officially failed."

Liu Di said in surprise, "You went that far?"

Mo Yu replied bitterly, "Not only that. I've previously tried nuclear energy, solar energy, chemical energy, even biological energy. None of them worked."

Liu Di frowned. "Even the energy from nuclear fission isn't enough?"

Mo Yu continued, "The type of energy this equipment requires is different from anything in our current world. It needs something gentler, more ethereal, something that disperses like particles."

After saying that, Mo Yu stared directly at Liu Di. "To be honest, I've never kept the equipment running for more than one second. Over the past eight years, I've only learned a tiny bit from it—the light shield the Mozi
