Energy Problem

A week later.

The expansion of Laboratory No. 2 was complete, allowing Richard to conduct another experiment.

Richard was extremely proficient in operating the various devices. He quickly activated and adjusted them, generating the laser beam and carrying out the reaction.

But the results were far from ideal.

After the experiment, Richard sat behind a wooden table in Laboratory No. 2, frowning deeply as he continuously wrote on papyrus with a Goose Feather Quill, calculating the results.

The final result was 3.8545±0.1235, not much different from the first experiment.

"In other words..." Richard glanced at the final figure, set down the Goose Feather Quill, and muttered to himself, "There was no error in any part of the previous experiment. The massive energy loss was not caused by some oversight, but because an unknown problem truly exists."

Richard stood up, walked toward the corner of the wall, then slowly paced back.

His gaze deepened as his thoughts continued to spread outward. He murmured, "It can be confirmed that the instruments are correct. The only thing that could theoretically be causing the current situation is the purified Uranium-235.

"According to previous theoretical deductions, the matter in this world differs slightly from matter on Earth. Could it be because of this that the energy required to purify Uranium-235 has increased? If so, how should it be solved?"

Richard pressed his lips together. A moment later, he left Laboratory No. 2, entered the Main Laboratory, and took out the Chapter of Munro and Veisha Secrets to consult them.

But after carefully reading for a long while, he found no relevant records.

Richard's expression turned somewhat solemn. He vaguely felt that he had encountered no minor obstacle, one that would take considerable effort to overcome.

He was not afraid of that. The only problem was
