"Professor Ma, there's something I might need your help with."

Ma Ning was happily slurping a bowl of instant spicy noodles when he saw Zeng Gu Cheng, showing a hint of excitement. His expression immediately became serious:

"Academician Zeng, what's the matter?

Is there something wrong with the tribulation process that needs negotiation?"

Zeng Gu Cheng waved his hand, indicating not to worry:

"Relax, it's not a big deal.

I just need you to go and tell the Yang Family that this tribulation might take a bit longer than we expected.

Especially after two or three rounds, the time might extend quite a bit."

Ma Ning finally let out a breath, wiping away imaginary sweat from his forehead:

"Oh, I thought it was something serious.

No problem, leave it to me.

How much longer are we talking about? One third or half more?"

"About... three times longer."

Ma Ning:

"??!!"

He comically dug at his ear and asked again:

"How long did you say?"

In the original plan of the bunnies.

Yang Zhengchu's tribulation was expected to last half a Damo Day, roughly three and a half days in Huaxia.

According to Zeng Gu Cheng's words, extending it three times longer.

This means Yang Zhengchu's tribulation would last at least two Damo Days, exactly two weeks locally.

So Ma Ning wondered if not drinking goji berry tea for too long had affected his hearing.

Zeng Gu Cheng looked a little sheepish at this point but still explained:

"This is due to some last-minute changes, things are more or less like this...

Besides, although two Damo Days is not short, similar precedents have happened in the Damo Realm.

You can just say it's a special case.

As long as the final result is successful, I am sure the Yang Family will understand a longer process."

While listening to Zeng Gu Cheng's explanation, Ma Ning's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

Goodness.

They plan to fleece the heaven tribulation!

Yes, fleece the heaven tribulation!

Zeng Gu Cheng and their scheme is simple:

Since the heaven tribulation keeps supplementing body-refining material, we might as well use the storage capacity of condensing microorganisms to fill it all up.

For instance, every time we fill three units, we release one unit to Yang Zhengchu.

Whether the stored thunder tribulation energy can be utilized or researched is another matter, but at least the early preparations should be maxed out.

No choice.

The bunnies are all late-stage hoarding addiction sufferers.

Even during a heaven tribulation, they're thinking of fleecing; what can you say about this daring move...

It's like certain local online novel writers who love to throw scientific papers in their stories, whenever this happens, readers mock them with four words:

Not surprised at all.

Similarly, using these four words for the bunnies fits perfectly.

Nonetheless, as Zeng Gu Cheng said, similar precedents have occurred in the history of the Damo Realm.

For example, over six hundred years ago in the Eastern Domain, a cultivator called Overlord Blade Song Yi took no less than one and a half Damo Days to succeed in his tribulation.

Therefore, if an explanation is needed, it's possible to find a reason to cover it up.

Moreover, the crucial tribulation fleecing phase is of great importance.

Hence, Ma Ning had to rub his temples and went to negotiate with Yang Wanli.

Right at the same moment Ma Ning was negotiating.

On a flat ground not far from the crowd.

A few research dogs who obviously didn't have girlfriends were combining forces to move a piece of equipment onto the launch rack.

The entire body of the equipment was dark grey, with a standard four-corner appearance, looking somewhat like a drone.

However, its wingspan was significantly wider than a drone, over two meters, and there was a cluster-like probe mounted at the front.

This was a pulse potential detection device, with a certain wind resistance and interference-proof ability, a preemptive technology from the Mars exploration project.

There were a total of eight pulse potential detectors for this mission, with only one mission:

To collect relevant information about tribulation clouds.

Of course.

The combat department did not expect it to hold out for long, just being able to operate normally for a few seconds would be considered a great success.

In the microscopic domain, even 0.001 seconds can yield a lot of information.

The person in charge of this launch mission was also a famous academician named Huang Pu Donglai—don't misunderstand, he doesn't have the surname Huang Pu, just Huang, with the full name Pu Donglai. (There is a similar real-life example, also an academician, very interesting)

Huang Pu Donglai was employed at the Liaodong High Energy Physics Research Institute, regarded as the authority in physics in that northeastern region.

Similar to Li Bai'an, who was initially in charge of the Qingcheng Mountain project, both were experts with important tasks at hand.

This time, to accurately analyze and measure the attributes of the thunder tribulation, Huang Pu Donglai was urgently assigned to the Damo Realm.

After placing the eight pulse potential detectors in position.

Huang Pu Donglai made a final check with his assistant, then waved his hand:

"Launch!"

Click—

With the pressing of the launch button, the baffle of the simple launch rack slowly opened.

Buzz—

The eight devices emitted a low and dense starting sound, then slowly ascended.

To avoid any uncontrollable accidents that might occur upon launching the propulsion systems, the command chose the self-ascending operation mode.

These detectors weren't required for return missions, so some parts and energy were tuned to structures more suitable for ascent, meaning they didn't need to consider work loss.

People familiar with the bunnies know.

Once something doesn't need considerations for reuse or energy consumption but only for extreme power conditions.

The bunnies can retrofit a Wuling Hongguang to a Unit-01 for you.

That's the case with these detectors.

Under the guidance of a certain energy drive, these detectors showed agility in stark contrast to their appearance.

In just a brief moment.

The eight devices reached an altitude of five thousand meters.

However, just as they were preparing to continue ascending.

Bang—

As a burst of flames flashed.

One of the devices suddenly exploded without recording any information.

Huang Pu Donglai's expression remained unchanged, he continued watching over the console.

At an altitude of six thousand seven hundred meters, the second device exploded.

At eight thousand three hundred meters, the third device exploded.

....

When the altitude reached eleven thousand meters, less than a thousand meters from the cloud layer.

Only three devices remained high in the sky.

Buzz—

The emotionless and unconscious devices continued ascending, not fearing the danger ahead in the slightest.

Eight hundred meters.....

Five hundred meters.....

Three hundred meters....

When less than a hundred meters from the tribulation cloud, the three detectors simultaneously ejected another small device from a particular region.

These are called space field meters.

Field detectors, as the name suggests, are used to detect and collect field information and are key payloads for satellites conducting high-precision field detection.

This time, the bunnies used the NUIST-type field detector from Jinling Information Engineering College, a field grinder-type field detector.

There are quite a few similar devices abroad too, such as AMEO340, CS110, and so on.

However, the latter is typically more used in space-ground field settings.

The three modified space field meters were quickly ejected, forming a very short information advancing structure with the subsequent pulse potential detectors and the ground console.

In less than four seconds, the space field meters and pulse potential detectors flew forward in unison.

Finally embedding deeply into the cloud, and then.....

Being vaporized into ash by a high-level energy charge.

However, before they disappeared, several data beams were transmitted back to the ground.

On the ground.

Huang Pu Donglai, glaring at the console, had his pupils suddenly shrink:

"This... how is this possible????

The electric potential outside the tribulation cloud conforms to Laplace's equation, and the electric potential is continuous outside the tribulation cloud, with a continuous normal component!!??"
