The data were not profoundly advanced; they were the magnetic induction intensity data array recorded by a tester that Ren Zhong had installed, totaling over 1,300 entries.
Then, Ren Zhong inserted the data storage disk given by Ma Dafu, opened the original exploration map on the tablet, and chose to overlay it.
Afterwards, he began to stare blankly at this map.
In the original exploration map of Starfire Mine, the waste pit was not a pit, but a small hill.
The small hill was marked with three-dimensional color blocks according to the concentration of different metal elements, resembling an inverted toxic mushroom head.
When the two maps were overlapped, the route of Ren Zhong and his squad today resembled the extended hairs on the outside of the mushroom head.
The era has changed, and the structure of the Starfire Mine has fundamentally transformed, with the original area’s magnetic field structure altered entirely.
Yet, past information hasn’t completely lost its value; no matter how it changes, there are patterns and principles that must be adhered to.
Ren Zhong’s thought needed to traverse the past and present of the mine pit, to find a methodology for calculating the entire waste pit’s Magnetic Line network using available information.
During his studies, his core major was biology and chemistry.
But his physics and mathematics were also good.
After a long time, Ren Zhong suddenly opened his eyes, took out paper and pen beside him, began drafting, continuously writing formulas by hand and then crossing them out.
After more than an hour, Ren Zhong left a long string of calculation formulas on the draft paper.
He memorized them silently and then burned the draft paper in one go.
He completed the compilation of Methodology.
From tomorrow, he’ll continue delving deeper into the abandoned mine pit, keep exploring more areas, and continuously collect more magnetic induction intensity data to be filled into the three-dimensional map.
As long as the basic data volume is amassed to a significant extent, he will be able to use the exhaustive method to calculate the current complete waste pit Magnetic Line network model.
There’s nothing magical about it; it’s merely routine operations of professional researchers.
Ren Zhong glanced at the time, it was already eight-thirty at night.
The door opened from the outside, and coming in was Hanyu.
Ren Zhong frowned, "Why did you come back alone? Not waiting for the others? It’s unsafe."
Hanyu shook her head, "It’s alright. Now everyone already knows we’re the fourth professional team here. Just mentioning your name, no one dares to do anything to me."
"Is that so?" Ren Zhong sighed, "Reputation is indeed a good thing, but we can also be burdened by it."
Hanyu asked puzzled, "How so?"
"Lin Wang is most afraid of being replaced, so reputation forces us to further stand opposed to him. Supported by Yang Bingzhong, if we develop well, we’ll become Yang Bingzhong’s capable aides, making Lin Wang a knife hanging over our heads, and a tool for Yang Bingzhong to control us. Yet, if we ever show weakness, display exhaustion of potential, or lose value due to weakened strength, then we’ll become favors Yang Bingzhong can sell to his truly loyal dog, Lin Wang."
Hanyu was stunned for a moment, "Every step is driving us to a dead end, worthy of him."
Ren Zhong chuckled, "Isn’t this the true nature of this world?"
"Mm."
