Ramirez look at the scientist with bewildered expression. Surprised by the sudden announcement of a rock named using his. Despite that, he didn't find it displeasing. Instead, he felt more proud to his retainer.
"You really thought this about, huh?" He said as he find the blue crystal amusing to touch after being given by the scientist.
It's cold, yet soft, it's as if he's holding a marshmallow within a freezer.
The structure of the crystal rock is simply a mystery even to them. After a few experiment, they still can't identify its process of combination. The atom that coincide with the magic particle just act as if it was normal despite being invaded by a foreign substance.
Three minutes has passed, yet Ramirez still can't get enough of the crystal. He squeeze, massage, and even hold it firmly just to see its reaction. However, just like any other rock, it acts normally, except of its soft texture that should be rough.
"Of course, for our country and leader, we will do anything we can." Santiago said proudly while pushing his chest to see his confidence.
"Anything else?" He asked, but not expecting.
"Well, if you ask me, then there's always a next right?" He scoff as if betraying the expectation of his president.
"Behold, our newest invention used by the Ramiranium, an atom that can manipulate energy as well as negate energy, a reactor." He said before removing the large sheet covering a big metallic stick that is shallow in the middle.
"Can I borrow the crystal, mister President?"
"Uh-uh sure." Baffled, he instinctively said as he admire the structure of the magnificent technology.
"This middle here will act as a storage of Ramiranium, like this." He said as he carefully place the crystal at the center, he then move around seven meters away from the device and head towards the monitor.
"Then we activate it by pulling this lever. Would you have the pleasure of doing this for the first time, mister President?" Santiago offer the first ever lever that will change the future of the Philippines.
"Of course." He said and head towards the lever.
"One, two, three, go." They said at the same time and pull the lever.
Suddenly, An eye-piercing flash illuminated the room. However, within a second it vanish leaving an unknown energy surrounding the crystal with a diameter of 3 meters. In their perspective, it can be seen as a planet being surrounded by its ring, albeit white.
"Water." The doctor mutter as his eyes filled with sparkling stars.
The substance that surround the crystal are water. That was he meant, and those water are not simply just a water, it is a fuel that can be used to generate electrity, mana, and even radioactive materials.
"What's that?" Ramirez asked, also amazed by the sudden event that transpired.
"I don't know, mister President, but I'm sure we can use it to further advance our technology." He said as they both stare at the magnificent creation of them.
"What kind of answer is that? Go figure it out!" He shout but without any hint of anger. The excitement simply overflow within him that it made him impatience.
"Relax, mister President. I'm just kidding. The truth is, this liquid form of ring is a fuel that can generate the entire country."
"With this sole thing?"
"Yes, with merely this one thing."
Ramirez froze, not knowing what he should, he simply stood silently as he thought about his ideal future.
'If this thing were used, it will possibly the most powerful source of electricity. If that happen, the bill for electricity will surely fall which will be favorable for companies that uses electricity. If possible, the sanction will be remove and foreign companies will surely see this as an opportunity.' He deeply thought as he stare at it.
"Doctor, how long til this die out?" he asked.
"See that small strings of water, mister President?" He asked as he point at string between the ring and the circular cover of the crystal that connects them.
"They act as a wire that connect to each other, the ring will be the crystal's fuel, vice versa. And the cover of the crystal will serve as its protector and assistant to further spread its power to the ring. It's just like a cycle of energy." He said trying hard to explain it in a simplified form.
"Then, how do we get energy from it if it uses its own energy to power itself?"
"That's the mysterious part, we still don't know how it works, but if you see it carefully, the light of the water liquids turn brighter and thicker. In my opinion, despite the cycle of energy, it still releases bonus power. That will be our new experiment. Since this is the first time we officially activate it, we still don't know how it will work. But according to my colleague the larger it is and/or quicker we extract energy from it, the faster it release and devour its energy at the same time." He explain while holding his chin as if thinking something hard.
