There is actually no difference between the detectors sent by Ming on the other side and the detectors made by the Empire in terms of structural strength and other aspects, except that its abyss protection technology is a mystery to us, and its material has many unexplainable properties.
, this thing is not more resistant to beating than the things made by the empire, so in theory, such a thing poses no threat to the control center.
No matter how fast it hits it, it’s useless. It’s useless even if it exceeds the speed of light and has infinite mass. This is not a speed problem, but a “layer” problem: because our control center has a psionic energy shield.
The energy shield is something that can provide indiscriminate defense against all external threats. Because the position of the psionic energy on the void ladder is at the same level as the entire world, everything in the world will be weakened by the psionic energy shield. "Speed" and "kinetic energy"
"" and the like are just concepts defined within the scope of the universe, so even if this thing hits the platform at the speed of light, more than half of its speed will be burned instantly, and then its body will also be burned - even
It can't even get through the first layer of shields. Of course, it may also use the same energy level as the psionic energy, so it can offset part of the shield, but I don't believe that such a small detector can carry enough energy to melt through two layers of shields.
Shield energy.
It will crash outside the control center instead of penetrating all the latter's defenses. It will survive in a nearly intact state after detonating the energy core - but the premise of all this is that our control center opens the shield.
With.
"You said that before the explosion, the defense system of the control center was down?" I looked at Shandora dumbfounded, and you said it would be nice if she made some other joke: How could the imperial equipment still have such a malfunction?
"I know you don't believe it," Sandora shrugged, "but this is what the system log records, and this is not a human operation. Instead, all hosts in the defense system ordered to turn off the underlying protection of the platform at the same time. Without a shield, full
The armor can also release pressure. The control center was completely undefended during that short period of time. The 'black shuttle' probably hit it at that time. It was not hindered at all. After the pressure was released, the charged armor was just a little harder.
The metal, faced with a sufficiently high-speed kinetic energy projectile, is not much stronger than ordinary materials, and I guess the 'Black Shuttle' also has a shield when it is turned on. So after the two offset each other, our large platform was destroyed, and that thing
My son is safe and sound."
I said "uh" and didn't know what to say.
I know about rechargeable armor, which is widely used in all things that require heavy protection. Because no matter how solid the material is, its defensive power will only be reflected in its "sturdiness", even if you get a piece of neutron star material.
In addition to being very hard, it has no resistance, so Xiling Apostle used a more advanced charged armor. By infusing nether energy into high-affinity metal, every molecule of this armor plate was
It is relatively fixed, and at the same time gives the armor energy resistance that is almost comparable to the armor of the gods. This is the rechargeable armor. It is also the only physical armor that is still valuable after reaching the technological level of the Empire (any other form of purely material armor will be eliminated)
, because pure matter can never withstand the power of a single shot of psionic energy). But charged armor can also be broken: if its energy field is turned off, which is commonly known as "pressure relief", then a piece of charged armor can be broken.
The armor has no special features other than being extremely hard.
Pandora can smash a hole in it with her headbutt - that girl's forehead is charged with energy.
Therefore, it is normal for the black shuttle to be able to break through four layers of armor. If its speed reaches a certain level, there is no difference between the four layers of armor and the four layers of cotton. If there is a layer of "psionic energy" on the surface of the black shuttle, the four layers of armor are even equivalent to nothing.
exist.
"Is it a simple system failure? Or is it a staff setting error?" I frowned, wondering why the control center would automatically turn off the defense in the bottom area. It was just... like welcoming a black shuttle.
"Both are unlikely," Sandora turned around and slowly flew outwards, while saying in the mental connection, "The chance of a single system 'failure' is less than one in ten million, and three sets of redundant
In my opinion, the probability of system failure at the same time is negligible, and the secondary defense host in the bottom zone also has its own judgment. When it receives instructions such as 'give up defense', it will repeat it to the upper-level host, and the upper-level host
Do you think it is possible to repeat a malfunction command twice and send it to subordinates? As for errors in personnel settings, let alone mistakes. The core code of fortress-type facilities is not allowed to be changed casually. Only Tavel and the defense commander here can
You have the authority to rewrite these codes, not to mention that the Xiling apostles would not make such a low-level mistake - creating a system vulnerability and causing the defense network to go offline? Just kidding."
With such a heavy heart in mind, Shandora and I quickly returned to the upper level of the platform, where Tavel and Lin Xue were already waiting here. The latter could not help but look a little worried on his face, but when he saw me
After that, it instantly changed to a carefree smile. The eldest lady came up and patted me on the shoulder: "Hey, the tough guy is back - how does it feel to be blown up and flying around?"
Immediately I knew that this half-fairy girl was probably "looking" at me the whole time. I was slightly moved but also embarrassed, so I could only scratch my hair: "It's quite exciting, it's quite exciting..."
Tavel's reaction after seeing the "Black Shuttle" was completely as expected. The bespectacled girl almost jumped more than two hundred meters high: there was insufficient gravity on the platform, and she forgot about it when she was excited. Then a large group of senior assistant technicians
After being called over, he carefully transferred the several-meter-long black detector into a special sample storage container and sent it to a research facility near the deep-diving port to wait for knocking.
I saw that Tavel's body also wanted to follow her immediately to conduct research, but Sandora stopped her: "Just let your mass projection go, you and the defense commander here and the main designers of the deep dive port come over,
There are special circumstances that require analysis.”
Tavel saw the extremely serious expression on Sandora's face and immediately bowed and left.
Soon, the defense commander of the deep dive port and several staff members who looked somewhere between soldiers and scientists arrived at the temporary workstation under the leadership of Tavel. The reason why those staff members looked somewhere between soldiers and scientists
, because they are wearing the white uniforms of technicians, but they are bigger than most imperial soldiers, and besides their fierce faces, they also have a killing temperament. I suspect that these scientists carrying heavy artillery are not slower than the soldiers on the battlefield.
——Zhennima is indeed a guy who dares to study at the Gate of the Abyss. Why do you think Tavel has cultivated so many scientific lunatics on the same level as her?
"This is the defense system log I found from the only device that can still be read." Sandora uploaded the information she found to the public information link. "The platform was in a completely undefended state before the accident."
, I wonder if anyone has discovered this."
The defense commander of the deep dive port is a male officer with a thin face and deep eye sockets. As a very "special" experimental facility, a considerable number of defense forces are stationed here, and this officer is the supreme commander of the local defense force and also
Apart from Tavel, he is the only person in the world who has the authority to shut down the base defense through external codes. If the current situation were to be dealt with by soldiers of ordinary races, I am afraid that it would have been a long time ago, but the emperor was different. He just recalled it carefully, and his face was confused.
He shook his head with a change of expression: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there is no relevant record. All monitoring points reported that everything was normal. Until the explosion, no soldiers or scientists reported that the base defense was closed."
Sandora nodded: "Yeah. I understand. Now let me tell you my opinion: The problem should not only be with the core host, but also with the monitoring devices in various places. However, the records of those detection devices have been destroyed, so this is just
A guess. After the core host shut down the base defense, the monitoring system also made a collective error. When the lower area defense was down, a report of "base defense is normal" was made. Even the branch terminals throughout the base showed this. Therefore, Sentinel
We didn’t discover the abnormality at the first time.”
"The only one that turned off the defense was the lower area, and it was turned off less than a minute before the black lump arrived," I interjected, "There must be some connection - I mean. I think this is simply...
It’s as if the platform is waiting for the Black Shuttle to give it a shot. Sandora, do you think the system failure here is affected by the Black Shuttle? For example, it has the abyss reaction on it.”
When I found the black shuttle, there was no abyss reaction on it, but this was probably purified by the nether energy in the buffer crystal grid. It cannot be said that it did not bring the abyss with it when it first crashed in. I still remember
The psionic energy vortex tearing apart the space was caused by the black shuttle when it passed through the corridor. Thinking about it now, it was probably the residual abyss power on the black shuttle that destroyed the local space structure and destroyed the psionic energy reactor.
Part of it was brought into the real world: the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was possible.
"I do think so," Sandora pondered. "In fact, I think there is almost an inevitable connection between the black shuttle and the paralysis of the base's defense. The two things can no longer be explained by coincidence. But with such a small
Can the abyss power carried by the detector destroy the control center of the entire control center?"
"Theoretically... this won't happen," Tavel shook her head vigorously. She personally designed most of the structure and control system of this site, and even wrote the code for the defense core. The girl with glasses didn't believe it.
Something that he carefully designed would have such a fatal flaw, "Let's not talk about the tightness and stability of the defense system. As far as this 'fault' is concerned, it doesn't seem to be the work of Abyss. The destruction of Abyss has always been blind and inadvertent.
It is programmed and very direct. It may directly explode the shield of the facility, or it may directly shatter the armor belt, but it will never invade the host in such detail, rewrite the program, deceive the monitor, and then disguise everything
An accident that caused a runaway energy furnace: Abyss does not have this kind of thinking ability. This is theoretically true."
"This question will have no result, at least for now." Lin Xue, who had been silent all this time, suddenly muttered something silently, and the scene suddenly became quiet. I looked at the eldest lady expectantly: "Girl, are you watching?
What happened?"
"I haven't seen anything," Lin Xue said lightly, "I just made sure that there are no clues around us. All valuable intelligence has been destroyed with the explosion. This secret will be hidden for a long time. When it is revealed,
Any accident investigation before the start of the operation is a waste of time. Instead of wasting energy investigating this, it is better to change the way of thinking and think about another situation: What would happen if the defense system of the control center did not go crazy?"
Shandora and I looked disappointed at the same time: after the prophet announced that something would not have results, it really would not have results. This has been proven countless times. Nowadays, time and energy are too much.
In the very urgent era of revival, Lin Xue's predictions certainly helped the new empire avoid a lot of detours and saved a lot of resources, but the feeling of putting a big unsolved case aside without thinking about it was still heart-breaking.
It's uncomfortable - well. Just don't think about it if you don't want to. Anyway, it's not the first time it has happened. According to the eldest lady, it seems that the truth of this incident will be revealed in the future? Since it won't have much impact, it's okay to wait quietly.
Can.
I focused my thoughts on the hypothesis proposed by Lin Xue: "If the defense system had not ventilated? Of course nothing would have happened to the control center."
"No," Sandora suddenly raised her head, "I understand what Lin Xue means: if those hosts are all normal, the black shuttle will crash into the shield - this extremely precious thing will not be noticed by us.
If so, it will be lost.”
The eldest lady smiled mysteriously: "That's it. So is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
"The control center can be rebuilt. The lost observation records and test data can be obtained again at any time, but we cannot create the black shuttle. The deep-sea submersible has not yet reached the critical point in the abyss. Which of the two is better?
Precious..." Sandora said and glanced at Tavel. "In this way, we should be grateful for this accident."
Seeing the cautious expression on Tavel's face, I knew that the black shuttle and the control center were more important in terms of scientific research value.
Sandora looked around and seemed to feel that there was no need to continue the meeting, so she stood up: "Then according to the prophet's instructions, let's put the accident investigation aside for the time being - but we still need to collect all the information that can be collected.
The information has been sorted out for future use. Tavel, you should conduct the research and analysis on that detector yourself, and repair the equipment here as soon as possible. The deep dive plan should be restarted."
Saying that, Shandora and Tavel looked at Lin Xue together. The latter nodded, indicating that the disaster she predicted that day was over. Tavel still asked uneasily: "Mother, the control center
Will the fault not happen again?"
"No, this is the first and last time." Lin Xue nodded firmly, "Although I can't see the reason clearly. But it happened just for Heisuo, and there won't be a second time in the future.
There is no problem with the security system of the control center, you can rest assured."
Tavel and the managers of the deep dive port left here and returned to work. Soon only Shandora, I, and Lin Xue were left in the huge conference room. Shandora rubbed her brows, seeming a little tired:
"I feel like this was all planned by someone. The black shuttle appeared, the defense system went down, the monitoring device malfunctioned... all these factors led to the detector falling into our hands intact. I never believed it.
Good luck comes from heaven, which makes people think of conspiracy."
"Indeed, if you think about the place where that thing ended up - in the crystals in the middle of the big platform," I agreed, "I just noticed this now: without the protection of those energy-releasing buffer crystals, a small
The detector must have been ashes when the big platform exploded, so the angle at which it penetrated the platform was simply magical."
A detector with thin skin and low health, even if it carries a layer of psionic energy shield and has the mass effect at the speed of light to protect it, it is impossible to penetrate a copper-walled space fortress without surviving. Even if the space fortress
If you open the door to let it hit and actively expose the energy core to let it penetrate, the detector will also be destroyed when the fortress explodes, unless it is "just right" embedded in a protective layer after the impact: for example, it can
A buffer crystal that absorbs explosion damage. Sandora is right. This series of events has nothing to do with accidents. This is completely a carefully calculated and variously adjusted "capture operation". I would not be surprised to say that someone planned all of this.
But who can do this? What’s the point of doing this?
The Xiling Apostles have been ruled out, but it is impossible for the enemy to do it - because it is obvious that the ultimate beneficiary of this matter is the empire. If it is the behavior of the fallen apostles, they should rather take things they cannot get.
Even if we destroy it, we won't let it fall into our hands, unless they go to all this trouble just to destroy one of our space stations - I remember that Abyss Xiling is not a disabled girl.
"Anyway, let Tavel transfer the black shuttle to the shadow space today. Only by putting things at home can people feel at ease. I'm afraid this universe is not very 'safe' anymore. After I go back, I will ask the Garden of Death to reset this
The coordinates of the world, I don’t want to encounter a group of fallen apostles attacking the deep dive ship just as it’s about to set off.”
Although the investigation into the system failure has been temporarily put on hold, at least the investigation into the explosion in the control center has been completed. We completed our work here and set off on the road back to Shadow City. Tavel will follow later: she has to first
Do some simple tests and processing on the black shuttle to ensure that it is completely harmless. After all, you are bringing something to the capital world, and you can't be careless.
The deep submersible plan was restarted after being delayed for almost half a month. The new model of deep submersible ship was sent to the test port, where the deep submersible ship will perform the last round before start-up before the control center is rebuilt there.
During the test, Tavel seemed extremely confident in the newly designed spacecraft. She used a lot of breakthrough technologies on the ship, and took advantage of the days when the deep-diving plan was temporarily suspended to install some Harlan technology on the ship.
High-tech modules with friendly support - these technologies from the fallen apostles were originally intended to be installed on their deep-diving equipment, but now they are first used on the imperial spacecraft. I don't know if Abyss Xiling had thought about this result.
.
Anyway, I have always felt that beating Harlan to the Imperial camp was one of the most rewarding things I have ever done...
