Chapter 608 Tangled Karl
Solar system, Pluto.
After the solar system entered the stage of large-scale development, if there is any place where human beings have not set foot, it is this dark star field at the edge of the solar system.
It’s not that it’s too far away from the earth. In fact, the most cutting-edge military engine technology on the earth has been quickly updated to the 18th generation. If the cost is not considered, the conventional cruising speed in the solar system is close to one percent of the speed of light. The journey time to Pluto has been squeezed into a staggering one month.
However, this place belongs to the special high-risk experimental base of the "Cloud Research Institute", so within tens of millions of kilometers around Pluto, it belongs to the "Military Restricted Zone".
As the solar system gradually prospers, the waterway is also full of newly launched space transport spacecraft, and many high-risk laboratories of the Cloud Research Institute have to be transferred from the "city center" of the solar system to the "suburbs".
Fortunately, telerobotic technology is not affected. For scientists, it is just a matter of logging in from a different physical address.
However, on the entire earth, only a few dozen people, including Yu Lao, who has the highest scientific research authority, are eligible to land in this dark place where even the sun is dim.
And at this moment, inside a huge crater on Pluto...
"Prepare for the countdown to the first explosion test of the Hades I-type planetary destruction bomb. Please evacuate the personnel of all units as soon as possible. Those who insist on staying, please check your pain adjustment for the last time..."
"The preparations are complete, the countdown begins! 10, 9, 8, 7..."
"Boom!" At the moment when the countdown ended, a group of extremely dazzling rays of light exploded in the crater, straight into the sky!
A huge spherical shock wave swept across and slowly spread to a smaller half of the sphere. The ground cracked and shook, underground magma spewed out, and the dust covered the sky. The scene was terrifying!
It wasn't until half an hour later that the violent shaking of the entire planet slowly disappeared, but aftershocks would come from time to time, showing that the geological changes inside the planet had not completely disappeared.
At the core of the explosion, the original small crater has been expanded into a huge basin, and the spewing underground magma is slowly turning it into a magma lake, but then it cools down rapidly in a vacuum and low temperature environment.
Looking down from the universe, the dark red magma is shining, like a "devil's eye" opened on Pluto.
In the high-altitude orbit of Pluto, a small observation platform is floating above the explosion point. On the platform, several small robots are pointing at the terrifying scene below.
“进行爆炸数据评估，确认500公里外的5级装甲标靶彻底粉碎，1000公里外的3级装甲2级烧融，1500公里外的仿真生物3级灼伤。”
"In a vacuum environment, the planet's surface damage rate is 8.79%. The atmospheric environment damage model has been established. It is estimated that the simulation results will be completed in 10 minutes..."
"The three scientific research bases on the back of the planet were affected by the explosion and shock, and they were damaged to varying degrees. The loss report has been automatically generated, and the repair is expected to take 3 hours..."
"..."
Looking at Pluto who was completely awakened from a deep sleep and "shivering", Carl, a scientist who just joined the Cloud Research Institute, swallowed.
Carl, 63 years old, was born in a Jewish family. He won a gold medal in the International Olympic Physics at the age of 13. He skipped middle school and entered MIT at the age of 14. He worked for NASA at the age of 16 and engaged in astrophysics research. He is a S-level key protection scientist in the United States.
After the ghost captain was born, he published high-level basic scientific research papers such as "weak gravitational lens theory and data analysis" and "wormhole formation and expansion model conjecture" in the virtual world of the technology tree, which immediately attracted the attention of the cloud research institute .
You must know that they obtained Nie Yun's first-hand information not long ago, which confirmed that under the condition of extreme charging, the wormhole has the property of being expandable.
This theory obtained from Gemini was also a great success in "Operation Ocean Tide" and destroyed a wormhole charging device of the Locke Consortium, which has been factually verified!
After brain evaluation and analysis, the Yunyun Research Institute finally decided to list Carl as the recruiting target and make up the [-] bachelors!
As one of the most important departments under his command, Nie Yun naturally has to personally review the recruiting of Yunyun Research Institute.
Carl's ability and resume are impeccable, and his forward-looking and professionalism in the wormhole model is indeed a talent that Nie Yun urgently needs. As for loyalty...well, these are small problems!
With a wave of his hand, the No.18 bachelor's reserve team officially joined, and today's Pluto explosion experiment is the first time that Karl has participated in the high-end research of the cloud research institute as an assistant "intern".
"Old Yu, is it really okay for us to destroy Pluto like this?" Karl turned his head and asked with lingering fear.
"Hehe! This is not the earth, and there is not much development value. The boss said, even if Pluto is dismantled, it will be fine!" Yu Lao said with a smile.
Is it okay to dismantle it? !
This was the ninth planet in the solar system. Does it count as destroying intangible cultural heritage?
Although the ninth planet of Pluto is somewhat untrue, it was classified as a dwarf planet in 2006, and its size is not even as large as the moon, but this cannot conceal the fact that it is a "gas star".
If it is known that I and others are conducting destructive experiments on Pluto, will some environmentalists in the universe jump out and condemn me?
Putting aside the weird thoughts in his mind, Carl looked at the center of the Pluto explosion again.
The Hades I planetary destroyer is said to be one of the sub-projects of the "Pluto Project" of the Cloud Scientific Research Institute. The purpose is to use the high-energy characteristics of energy crystals to create small, easy-to-carry carrier-based anti-star weapons, and give the enemy "Nuclear deterrence" level of deterrence!
Judging from the effect of the explosion, the power is equivalent to 100 billion tons of TNT equivalent, and the destructive power of the explosion in a vacuum environment will be considerably weakened, but if it is in an atmospheric environment... it will definitely be a scene of doomsday. Terrible ecological disaster!
In Karl's eyes, the data flow related to the experiment passed slowly, from design drawings to design principles, various drawings and parameters were presented in front of Karl without reservation.
There was a huge wave in his heart. Although it has long been rumored that a series of research topics of the Cloud Research Institute are all top S-level scientific research projects in the world, Carl is still a little unbelievable that he has access to such confidential information just after joining.
Especially, for him who has a secret mission...
"Mr. Carl, you are one of the top scientists in the United States, and you are currently among the top contributors to the technology tree in the world. After evaluation, Captain Ghost's cloud-based scientific research has a certain chance to give you an olive branch. Therefore, for the benefit of the country, we hope that by then, you Can bring us back some key information..."
A month ago, the words of the intelligence bureau personnel were still in his ears. Looking at the information in front of him, he fell into deep entanglement.
Ever since Lawrence, an expert in high-energy physics, was absorbed by the Cloud Research Institute, everyone has understood that the mysterious Cloud Research Institute is not completely closed, and they also need to absorb fresh blood.
This incident caused a sensation in the scientific community all over the world, and everyone wanted to enter this dreamed scientific paradise.
The ultra-high unlimited monthly salary in units of "ten thousand" may be ignored by those top scientists who regard money as dung, but the top scientific research projects and the legendary "internal employee benefits" are what make them flock to it Really seductive!
For this reason, the World Survey Organization also took Lawrence as the research object, collected information on scientists from all over the world, and published a "cloud reserve" ranking list, listing all top scientists who may be recruited.
Karl, on the list, ranks 17th.
Fame brought him attention from the outside world, but also brought him unexpected troubles...
Obviously, the information in his hands is definitely enough to be "key information". Even if he can only remember one percent of the content, it can make his country achieve a huge theoretical breakthrough in a short period of time.
But... can I really do this?
Seeing Pluto's miserable appearance, Carl's heart suddenly tugged.
In 1961, the Soviet Union detonated the "Tsar" on the Novaya Zemlya Island in the Arctic, with an equivalent of 5000 million tons, triggering a regional ecological disaster, which almost caused a catastrophe, affecting many European countries, and the experiment almost ended out of control.
If a bomb with a yield of tens of billions of tons is really produced... Even if it is not as powerful as the meteorite that destroyed the dinosaurs, it will be enough to destroy human beings, right?
"Hades Type I, the raw materials are not expensive, 10 kilograms of energy crystals, plus a precision trigger, which means that the manufacturing precision is high, the cost is low, and the power is strong. What do you think of this thing?"
Yu Lao asked casually while looking at the experimental data.
Carl: "..."
Inexpensive and powerful?
As a top scientist, Carl clearly understands that the higher the development of science, the higher the requirements for human organizational structure and moral standards!
Without absolute control over force, without a stable and unified internal environment, the appearance of every super weapon is likely to mean the beginning of human self-destruction...
A human world that cannot control scientific research results is likely to turn a technology that could have benefited one party into a "Pandora's box" that will bring all mankind to hell.
So, can I really hand over this kind of thing with confidence?
