Chapter: 6561

When they were almost arriving at the Oosu city, Leaf Xian's inner spiritual energy had increased by nearly 20%, and he told Lin Wan'er beside him, "Since this hand seal can continuously produce spiritual energy, I plan to exhaust all means and spare no expense after returning to unlock the hidden function of that ring."

Because they passed by the ai model factory on the way back, Leaf Xian decided to call Li Yalin. As it happened, Li Yalin was there, so Leaf Xian went straight there.

Upon meeting, Li Yalin eagerly told Leaf Xian, "The model has locked onto a highly suspicious target. According to the model's own words, it can basically confirm 99.99%."

Leaf Xian asked, "Then please briefly introduce what the ai model found this time and its thought process."

Li Yalin immediately opened up the display screen, opened part of the photos, and opened a regional satellite image, saying to Leaf Xian, "Take a look at this minefield located in Morocco's central region. This is one of the four major phosphate mines in Morocco."

Leaf Xian asked him, "How many companies are mining phosphate in this minefield?"

Leaf Xian asked, "Then please briefly introduce what the AI model found this time and its thought process."

Li Yalin immediately opened up the display screen, pointing to a part of the photos and a regional satellite image, saying to Leaf Xian, "Take a look at this minefield located in Morocco's central region. This is one of the four major phosphate mines in Morocco."

Leaf Xian asked him, "How many companies are mining phosphate in this minefield?"

Li Yalin replied, "According to our investigation, there are 8 companies operating in this minefield altogether."

As he spoke, he opened a satellite image that clearly showed the scattered distribution of multiple companies opening up mines in the area. Even with AI-enhanced satellite images, it was possible to see vehicles and personnel at work inside the minefield.

Li Yalin pointed to one region and said to Leaf Xian, "This patch is what the AI model is highly suspicious about - a phosphate mining company called Duke Mining, which has been established for 35 years. Over the past 35 years, it has expanded its scale several times."

Leaf Xian nodded slightly and asked him, "What did the AI rely on to conclude that this was the base of the breakaway faction?"

Li Yalin said, "First, the AI ran a large list globally, searching for approximately 80,000 companies with the capability to host the breakaway faction's bases. Then it combined massive amounts of data and astronomical data to perform multi-faceted system analysis."

As he spoke, Li Yalin paused briefly before opening up another image and saying to Leaf Xian, "Sir, the AI found that this company in all aspects matches our judgment about the base of the breakaway faction, and this company also has high energy consumption issues. So they applied for wind power investment permits 10 years ago and built six wind turbine sets in the minefield. Furthermore, they secretly renovated all rooftops to solar panels 10 years ago, likely due to their energy shortage being relatively large."

Leaf Xian opened his mouth and said, "These factors seem suspicious but cannot be confirmed as the base of the breakaway faction."

Li Yalin smiled and said, "So the most critical information has arrived. The Moroccan government prohibited underground phosphate mining 20 years ago, with all former underground mines and equipment abandoned and sealed off, and then switched to large-scale open-pit mining;"

"But this company was caught on satellite images at least 15 times entering a large transport convoy over the past 15 years and transporting massive amounts of materials. The unloading area is located at the entrance of the original abandoned underground mine, and the astronomical data has captured several instances of dump trucks carrying similar waste from the old underground mine to the open-pit mine for disposal."

As he spoke again, Li Yalin said, "If they are still secretly using the underground mine for mining, it would be absolutely impossible for them to pour the extracted phosphate back into the open-pit mine. That's just talking nonsense; it's too much of a waste."

"And what's more, AI analysis shows that due to technological advancements and mine equipment development, shallow open-pit mining has higher difficulties, costs, and efficiency than underground mining. Currently, if they continue to use underground mines, it would only be a waste of effort and not worth it; therefore, most mines have closed their old underground mines."

"The satellite image data can show that other mines' underground mines have no signs of activation over the past many years, except for Duke Mining. AI analysis of satellite data concludes that Breakcore will modify this mine, using its original facilities to create a dead base and continuously unload waste rock and soil from inside, and those trucks loaded with materials are definitely transporting supplies to the base!"

After listening to Li Yalin's analysis, Ye Chen asked him, "Li Chief, as an old detective with many years of experience, do you think AI's analysis is reliable?"

"It's reliable." Li Yalin nodded. "Although it doesn't have any direct evidence to prove that this place is Breakcore's dead base, it uses multiple dimensions to demonstrate the abnormality here, and other suspected targets may only have one or two anomalies, which can be considered high suspicion. But when many conditions are abnormal, its suspicion will multiply geometrically, especially considering key factors;"

As he spoke again, Li Yalin said, "AI analyzed the satellite data library, and all regular open-pit mining companies in Morocco have stopped operating underground phosphate mines over the past 15 years, including those engaging in illegal mining. After all, open-pit mining costs are lower, and their underground mines show no signs of reactivation in the database. Duke Mining is the only one found by AI to secretly operate an underground mine, but it's not extracting phosphate. Just this point makes it extremely difficult to rationalize."

Ye Chen nodded his head, saying, "The core of capital is profit. If something doesn't make a profit and even incurs high costs, capital will never do it. This Duke Mining quietly operates massive underground mines, incurring high costs but creating no value. It's only Breakcore that could have such strong demand for a mine." JrNovels.com
