Chapter 494 [Stoppage]

Chen Xiaolian's first reaction, this is by no means a system prompt!

Because...... First, this is City Zero.

City Zero is a space that is completely shielded from the outside world, a place where the main system of this world is completely blocked. You can't get any messages from the main system here.

As for the second one, it is naturally a strange string of symbols such as the prefix "????" of the message.

Chen Xiaolian's heartbeat began to accelerate.

After hesitating for a moment, he chose "YES"!

"????: The connection request is accepted and the initial module is being retrieved...... The retrieval is completed, the fit value is 99.86%, the fit is [perfect], and the permission is granted. ”

Chen Xiaolian sat on the bed, his eyes shining in the dark.

"????: Safe mode is on, automatic blocking is on, auto hide is on, automatic screening is on, environment retrieval, hidden danger is being eliminated...... After the elimination is completed, the current environment security is 100%, and the connection mode is entered. ”

"????: The permission is granted and the system allows access. ”

"????: Access mode: Free. ”

"????: Unlock ...... in progress"

......

At the same time, in the Senate, in the monitoring hall of the main control system of Zero City, several people on duty from the Sword Mountain and the Sea of Fire, and the people of the Angel Legion, were all stunned, looking at the display on the virtual projection screen!

On the virtual projection, the images of all the monitoring scenes in the original zero city were all cleared, and the monitoring images of all public areas became black screens!

All real-time detections of the main control system of Zero City are all invalid!

"Anomaly!"

"Anomaly!"

"Anomalous!!"

The personnel sitting in the monitoring position all reported the area index they were responsible for in a trembling voice.

The door to the hall opened, and a middle-aged man in the uniform of the Angelic Legion rushed in, his collar buttoned loosely and his hair disheveled, apparently waking up in the middle of the night.

"What the hell is going on?"

This middle-aged man was obviously a high-ranking member of the Angel Legion, and his face was full of anxiety and anger: "Can anyone tell me what happened? Report! I need to report the current situation! Report to each post!!"

After a few seconds of silence, someone finally began to speak.

"No. 1 post, real-time monitoring of public areas in the city is all closed. ”

"No. 3 post, the control system of the artificial sea area of Aihai is closed and cleared, the wind speed is zero, and the hydraulic power is zero...... The Love Sea Circulating Pump System was shut down. ”

"At the sixth post, the main program of the Zero City Ecological Circulation System has entered sleep mode. ”

"Post No. 9, the security system was forcibly opened, the security level was raised to the maximum, and all temporary passages were forcibly closed......"

"Post No. 2, the resource space to which the resident team belongs, has been closed...... The time of reopening is unknown. ”

"Post 11: The industrial energy supply is cut off, all energy furnaces are shut down, and all workshop instruments are automatically switched to manual operation...... Hell!"

"No. 8 Gang ......"

"No. 7 Gang ......"

"Thirteenth Gang ......"

One by one, trembling, or dazed, or nervous, or anxious, or panicked voices are reporting.

In the hall, such reports came and went, and the reports of the inspectors at each post made everyone's hearts tangled fiercely.

Hearing this, everyone's hearts sank fiercely!

The face of this middle-aged man of the Angel Legion was already extremely pale, and his eyes were like dead ashes!

His throat was dry, his mouth was bitter, his voice was so hard that he struggled to get a word out between his teeth.

That is to say...... Zero's System ...... Strike?!"

His gaze swept across the audience as if he was about to kill, but no one could accept such a gaze, and everyone had panic written on their faces.

There's no way not to be afraid!!

This is City Zero! This is City Zero on which everyone here lives!

It is the Zero City that gives them all hope, all the living space, and all the resources!

And now...... City Zero's system is on strike!

Quiescence.

Deathly silence in the hall!

After a full ten seconds, a voice sounded a little frightened, a little hesitant.

"That...... My lord, it's not a complete strike, the external defense program has been automatically activated, and the security level has been raised to the highest level. ”

"......" The middle-aged man looked at the voice, this is a man with a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he licked his dry lips, and his voice was hoarse: "What do you mean...... Zero's system, in ......"

"In self-enclosure. The face of this monitoring officer in the sea of swords and fires was even more ugly: "It's ...... It seems to wake up, then take away all control of us, stop all internal work, and then raise the external security system to the highest level. It'......"

The middle-aged man took a deep breath: "It's like a city, everything in the city is stopped, but the city gate is closed, is that what it means?" ”

“...... Yes. ”

All work is stopped, but the defense system and security level are automatically raised to the maximum?!

Everyone's mind can't understand what this is all about.

Although City Zero has always been a self-aware program, it has never done anything like this, it has always been under the control of several resident teams of the Senate and the Angel Legion, allowing them to use themselves to manage Zero City.

And tonight, Zero City suddenly ...... Take back all the management rights!

"In other words, as the resident team of Zero City, we are now ...... It's exactly the same as the outsiders, the visitors who came in at the open house, and we don't have any control over City Zero anymore?!"

“...... So to speak. ”

It was at this time that the door of the hall was pushed open again.

Dressed in uniform, with a murderous face, a burly martial angel strode in, and beside him, followed by three people who were also wearing the uniforms of the Angel Legion.

The arrival of the martial angel lifted everyone's spirits, and the middle-aged man immediately greeted him and gave a salute first: "My lord, the situation ......"

"Wait a minute. Wu Angel's voice was very thick and full of energy, his hair was scattered, and he looked like a lion who would be angry at any time: "Mr. Lanhai will be there soon, and when he arrives, we will listen to your report together." ”

Blue Ocean arrived less than half a minute later than Wu Angel, and he only brought Guan Shan with him. After walking into the hall, Lan Hai's expression seemed to be very complicated, and after glancing at the martial angel, the two looked at each other, and they both saw a long-lost emotion from each other's eyes.

A hint of trepidation!

Yes, it's panic.

Even before stepping onto the Blood Refining Arena, Lan Hai's eyes had never revealed such trepidation!

Even if it was a life-and-death duel with the master of the Thorn Flower Troupe, when he died nine times, there was no such panic in the eyes of the martial angels!

"Let's report!" Martial Angel took a deep breath.

A few minutes later, the two giants who had listened to the report glanced at each other, and they both saw the incredible in each other's eyes.

“...... This has never happened before?" Lan Hai asked, looking at the martial angel.

After all, Daoshan Huohai is a "newcomer" in the seven resident teams of Zero City.

Wu Angel's expression was ugly: "No...... As far as I know of City Zero's history, nothing like this has ever happened. ”

Lan Hai was silent for a moment and asked, "Have you notified everyone?"

Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone understood who Lan Hai was talking about by "everyone", and there was no doubt that he was referring to the heads of the other resident teams of the Senate!

"Already, already informed. A member of the Sword Mountain and Fire Sea immediately replied in a nervous voice: "However, because of the shutdown of the Zero City system, the normal means of communication have been shut down, and we can only notify by other means, and the four teams have been notified so far, and the head of the regiment is coming." But ......"

"But what?"

"Your Excellency, the head of the Dark Knights, is in the resource space to which he belongs, and now that Zero City is suspended, he is enclosed in the resource space and cannot come out. The voices of the people in the sea of swords and fires were trembling: "Also, the people of the Rhodria regiment reported that their regiment commander was not in Zero City, but went out to run errands, and now all the passages outside Zero City have been closed, so ...... So lost contact. ”

Bang!

Wu Angel slammed his fist on the table, and the metal table was smashed into a deep pit by his punch, and this burly middle-aged man, like an angry lion, walked back and forth in the room for a few steps: "All the passages are cut off? That is, we are now closed in Zero City, and we can't get in or out?"

“...... Yes, Lord Martial Angel, the emergency backup passage has also been cut off. ”

Lan Hai's eyes flashed, and a sentence suddenly popped up: "Can I understand it...... Zero City, now like a computer, has entered the ...... Safe Mode??"

The people in the room were stunned, and then one of them replied tentatively, "Yes, my lord...... Your analogy is very apt. Indeed, it's as if it's in safe mode. ”

"What about assessments? now assessments, the best and worst possibilities. Martial Angel snorted.

Everyone in the room turned pale, but soon, a man with glasses stood up.

Apparently this guy is a kind of "tech nerd" type of person, and took a deep breath: "The best result is...... This shutdown will automatically resume, then everything will return to normal, but during the shutdown, there is no doubt that Zero City will suffer losses, and the suspension of those operating workshops, workshops, instruments, and production lines will cause losses to the team to which they belong, and the data cannot be counted yet. ”

"Say the worst!" Blue Ocean interrupted the man.

"Worst result......" A cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the technical nerd: "The two adults know that Zero City is the main control system, it is ubiquitous, our team's dependence on it is very serious, almost more than 80% of the equipment in Zero City is connected to the main system, and it is controlled by the computing power of the main system, only a small number of machines are manual, and they are not affected by this shutdown, but our energy comes from the main system of Zero City." So......

Now all the automated systems in Zero City have been shut down, or even ...... Even many of the guests in the hotel were locked up in their rooms, unable to enter or leave. Aside from the people who are still walking the streets so late, my estimate is that more than 80% of the people in City Zero are currently confined to their rooms. ”

"In other words, the current Zero City has become a huge prison, and in this prison, every room has become a cell?" Lan Hai's tone was a little ridiculous.

“...... You can understand it this way, but as far as I know, the base camp of the resident team is basically manually controlled and is not affected, so ......"

"So we're not at the end of our rope. Lan Hai sighed: "Otherwise, if there is a riot on the street, the combat effectiveness of our resident team can only be locked up in our base camp and watched?"

The technologist pushed his glasses, he was wearing the uniform of the Angel Legion, and he was not Lan Hai's subordinate, so in the face of Lan Hai's questioning, he was not nervous, and took a deep breath: "My lord, the worst case is not this, the worst case is much more serious than we expected!"

“...... You said. ”

The glasses man's tone was very dazed: "We are here, all the energy is supplied by the Zero City Master System, whether it is the oxygen we breathe, the water we drink, the sunshine we receive, everything is provided by the ecological circulation system, and this circulation system has always been operating using the energy provided by the Zero City Lord System." Including everything in Zero City, the production plants, instruments, production lines, and maintenance equipment of each resident team are all powered by the main system of Zero City, and even the power of every street lamp on the road and the coffee machine in the tavern comes from the main system of Zero City!

Of course, we have built backup energy supply equipment, but ......"

"But what?" Martial Angel felt that the tone of his subordinate was obviously a bit of despair, and asked in an aggravated tone.

The man with glasses shook his body and said faster: "But, as I said, we have always relied too much on and trusted the Zero City Master Program! It has never let us down, never stopped, never had any problems! So, in the preparation of backup energy equipment, everyone has not paid too much attention. Because the energy provided by Zero's main system is almost endless. So ......"

"So our backup energy work is so-so. Martial Angel sneered.

“...... Yes. The glasses man's voice began to grow hoarse.

"We have the most advanced technology, we can control the technology that is more than 100 years old in the outside world! We have mastered the miniaturization of nuclear furnaces...... You're telling me now that we don't have backup energy equipment?!"

“...... It's not that there isn't, we do. The man with glasses smiled bitterly: "However, the preparation is not as abundant as the adults expected." ”

His voice began to tremble!

"But backup energy devices...... The energy that can be supplied is very limited, we only have four sets of standby energy equipment, and the energy supplied is not enough to maintain the full power consumption of Zero City's daily consumption! If it is forcibly maintained, then the standby unit can only last for 48 hours at most...... Even shorter, it goes into an energy shortage. ”

The more the man with glasses spoke, the more excited he became: "Adults may not be aware of a problem...... The energy to sustain the daily expenses of Zero City is not just the water and electricity we use, not the beautiful sea of love, not the lights in our rooms now, nor the production lines in the factory...... Most of the energy is spent on space technology!

That is to say, the 'zero city resources' to which each resident team belongs, such as the resource space and minerals owned by each resident team, etc., which are opened up by the zero city, similar to the kind of 'space' of the small copy of the game world, these spaces are created by the master program of the zero city, similar to the small world created by space technology alone! In order to maintain these worlds, everyone can continue to mine minerals and get resources in the resource world...... The energy consumed to maintain these small worlds, small spaces, is huge!

Of course, all this energy was supplied by the Zero City Master System before, so we don't need to worry about it...... And it's useless for us to worry about it, thinking that with such a huge amount of energy, we simply can't afford to create an energy source to sustain it.

But now, City Zero is closed. If all energy supply is stopped, then ......"

"Then the resource space to which our resident team belongs, the 'welfare' of these Zero Cities, and the mineral world will all ......."

"Those small spaces and small worlds are like small copies, if they lose the maintenance of energy, they will completely collapse and disappear!" The man with the eyes shook his head: "Our backup energy unit will last for a maximum of 48 hours, or less. ”

Lan Hai and Martial Angel exchanged glances with each other, and Martial Angel said in a low voice, "The leader of the Dark Knight is in the small space of their team!"

"......" Blue Sea's face twitched: "If the small world collapses and disappears, the people in it ......"

This question was asked to the man with glasses, and the man with glasses turned pale and did not say a word and did not answer.

But the answer is already clear to everyone!

Everyone in the room gasped.

Fall a giant!

This is definitely a huge loss for City Zero!

But......

"My lord, I'm not done yet. The eyed man's voice sounded again.

This time, everyone looked at him with a little ...... Hopeless

"If there's any bad news, you can tell it all at once. Martial Angel shook his head.

"Ecological circulatory system. Cold sweat flowed from the forehead of the man with glasses: "The oxygen we breathe, the fresh water we drink, the sunlight we receive, the day and night in the zero city...... It's all provided by this ecological circulation system. ”

"You won't tell me that we only have one ecological circulation system!" Lan Hai frowned: "Although Daoshan Huohai is a new team, I don't believe that the previous senators would not have thought of getting a backup circulation system, and such a simple thing would not be done?!"

"The backup system is there. The man with glasses had a dry mouth: "What we are using now is a backup ecological circulation system." ”

“...... Backup? What we use now is the backup?" Blue Ocean's eyes widened.

Guan Shan next to him immediately added in a low voice: "Yes, my lord, what I use now is the spare one, and when the team took over the rotation a few days ago, it was already written in the memo." ”

"What about the original ecosystem?" Blue Ocean asked.

“...... Broken, under repair. The man with glasses hesitated for a moment, as if he didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry!" Blue Ocean shouted.

The eyed man sighed: "Because ...... The matter of repairing the ecological circulation system was submitted to the Senate a long time ago, but ...... Because some time ago, the meeting affairs of the Senate were too busy, so the approval process has been delayed, so it was not finally approved and repaired until a few days ago, so now, we are using a backup ecosystem, and the original system has been damaged and is being repaired. ”

Although these words were said vaguely and vaguely, everyone present understood them.

Why some time ago, the Senate was busy with affairs and repeatedly postponed the review process......

In fact, everyone's heart is bright!

The Senate was busy some time ago, what were you busy with?

What is busy is how to deprive the resident team of Daoshan Huohai!!

The Senate will be caught in infighting, and there will be a lot of delays in the approval of important daily matters!

Lan Hai naturally knew that there was no point in talking about this now, so he simply asked: "Just say it directly, now we only have one ecological circulation system, so what is the situation now?"

"This ecological circulation system was stopped by Zero City. The man with glasses said in a trembling voice.

"Stopped?" Lan Hai frowned, "Can't we manually control it?"

"No, you can't. After it was stopped by City Zero, it was completely locked up, because the ecological circulation system consumes a lot of energy, it has always been directly connected to City Zero, and it requires huge computing power to calculate the ecological consumption caused by the increase and decrease of population and production in real time, oxygen content, temperature, population and production, etc. So this system has always been connected to the Zero City Master system, and now it ...... City Zero shut it down and locked it up!" The glasses man's voice was almost desperate: "If it was usual, an ecosystem was locked, and we could choose to manually turn on the backup ecosystem to maintain it, but now it'......"

"Now we only have one set that is good. Lan Hai waved his hand: "You have made it very clear, I understand what you mean." So...... Just tell me the result!"

The result is ...... After the ecological cycle system is locked, we have now entered a time without ecological cycle. The man with glasses smiled bitterly: "Zero City is a space, the sun here, day and night rotation, is made by the ecological circulation system, during the shutdown, it is dark outside, and there will be no sunlight." And...... Our oxygen, fresh water...... All ......"

This time, everyone changed color!!

Fortunately, the problem of fresh water is okay, every awakened person has a habit of storing a lot of food and water in their storage equipment, and it will not be too short for a short time.

However, oxygen can't be helped!!

No one has nothing to do with stocking up on oxygen tanks in their storage gear!

"I need specific numbers. The majestic voice of the martial angel sounded, overpowering the uproar in the hall.

The man with ...... glasses picked up a small calculator-like thing, and quickly entered a few sets of numbers: "At present, our air oxygen content is quite abundant, and although the circulation system has lost its energy supply, it is still running slowly according to the inertia of the system, and it can run for a period of time, but according to the current consumption of Zero City, after about nine hours, the system will completely stop producing oxygen, and then, from about now, after sixteen hours, there will be a gradual low oxygen situation in Zero City."

In 24 hours at most, we will start to suffocate!"

The eyed man said this and added the last sentence:

"And now it's happening that we, everyone, can't leave City Zero! We're locked up here. ”

Wu Angel whispered, "Can't we make oxygen, make new equipment?"

"Yes, we have the technology. The man with glasses said the most desperate sentence: "However, our factories, production lines, without energy, have all stopped." The equipment you said to make oxygen, miniature, for one or two people, can do it.

But to supply the kind of large-scale equipment that Zero City has, only a workshop can do. ”

Lan Hai didn't say a word, suddenly walked to the console, and quickly entered a few numbers.

Soon, a countdown line appeared on the screen.

"23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds. ”

Time is still decreasing by the second.

"Gentlemen!" Lan Hai shouted, "This may be the only time we have left! Now, everyone use my brains and think of a way!!Any idea, any way, any idea!!If you don't want to die here!"
