Chapter 56: Artemis (4)
The outer gate is slowly lowered, and the air inside the power station is being filled into the ventilation chamber, and the inner hatch opens when the internal and external air pressure reaches an equilibrium value.
"So, how are you going to destroy the entire Lunar Fortress? Noyeru asked.
"The Lunar Sea on the dark side of the moon has the highest concentration of helium-3 on the surface of the moon, which is a good fuel for fusion reactors. "This power station took advantage of this and provided the necessary energy for the initial construction and development of Artemis." ”
"That is, this is a nuclear power plant?"
Patrick nodded.
"Can the use of nuclear power plants really destroy Artemis......
"This is the best-case scenario," he said, "and the depth of the nuclear power plant is connected to the ruins, and the explosion is very likely to trigger a chain reaction of the collapse fluid inside the ruins, triggering a larger explosion." Even if the reaction of the collapse liquid does not produce a drastic phenomenon, it itself will be consumed in the process, and the 'arrow of the moon god' without energy will have no effect at all. ”
"Pretty much understood," Noyeru said, "we just need to destroy this place, right?"
"Hmmm......"
After the air pressure balance was adjusted, the internal hatch slowly opened, and through the little gap that had just opened, Patrick could already see the flash behind him. He raised his fist and slammed it to the ground, and the shield field went up. The moment the hatch opened completely, countless particle beams shot towards them, striking the shield force field as if forming a curtain of light.
Is it TASA?" Patrick sneered in his heart, as if Zvado Philip knew very well what he was thinking, but he didn't think that these so-called elites could stop them.
He throws a smoke grenade, releasing smoke with disrupting radio waves that disrupt the enemy's head-up displays. The three of them seized the gap of a few seconds, came out of the ventilation chamber, and found each bunker separately. They fired cross-fired, covered each other, and at once disorganized TASA. TASA troops threw out the turret, hoping to use the turret to pin Patrick and the others and buy a little time for the wounded to recover.
Patrick turned, and with the help of thrusters, he moved behind another bunker, and the particle beam grazed the outer shell of the tank. The turret stared at them tightly, and he pulled the Valkyrie grenade launcher from the holster and held it in his hand.
"G41, Noyero, are you ready to go?"
"Yes, ready at any time, master!"
"Go ahead, I'll follow. ”
Patrick nodded slightly, leaned out of cover, raised the launcher to eye level, and pulled the trigger at the enemy's turret. A grenade fell into the middle of the three turrets, and a strong electromagnetic pulse burned them out directly.
TASA forces immediately suppressed them, trying to stop their counterattack. However, by the time they raised their guns, Noyelu had already swooped towards the defensive line, and the two submachine guns rained all the bullets in front of them, turning the enemy who had rashly exposed themselves into a hornet's nest. She then dropped her submachine gun, stepped on the ground with her right foot forward, and quickly airsomesomed into the pile with the help of her thruster, dodging the panicked particle beams. TASA's elite hurriedly drew their guns for close-quarters combat, but the subjects with stronger reflexes and physical fitness had already drawn two scimitars, and the blades reaped the heads of the enemy with the dance of death, and the severed limbs and heads fluttered.
The G41 raised its gun to shoot at the enemy in a high position, and the TASA elite who left cover with their upper bodies was immediately hit by bullets, sweeping down a platoon. The others tried to fight back, but as soon as half of his helmet was exposed, the bullets would have sliced off his brain. None of the people who were targeted by that red eye could escape.
In just a few tens of seconds, more than half of the TASA troops were lost, and they were completely suppressed by the Hades team. Seeing that the situation was decided, Patrick stepped forward to deal with the remaining enemies, and the power station quickly fell silent.
"No," said Patrick, who was inspecting the reactor, "the reactor's protective layer is too thick for the bomb to detonate it, and I can't penetrate the protective layer, at most fill in a few dents." ”
"What then?" asked Noyeru.
Patrick pondered for a moment and handed her all the bombs.
"You go and put all of this underneath and expand the road that connects the ruins. ”
"Ah...... Oh, got it. ”
"G41, let's take the control room. ”
"Yes, master. ”
They turned back up the stairs to the top, and behind several layers of radiation-proof walls was the main control room that controlled the power station. Patrick slammed his fist a few times, then placed the breaking explosive on the deformed door and detonated it, and the blast blast directly opened the heavy metal door. G41 turned and fired, and after a few gunshots, the control room fell silent.
Patrick enters, obtains administrator privileges as usual, and then begins to manipulate the control room's console. The AED system is connected to the main system of the power station, and the situation of each unit is synchronized to Patrick's head-up display. In fact, he didn't have to do anything, he just turned off all the cooling systems that control the temperature of the nuclear reactor and left the reactor to dry there.
"Warning, the liquid cooling system is all out of operation, the temperature of the nuclear reactor will get out of control, and the temperature of the furnace core is rising. The AED system sounded the alarm, and the temperature of the reactor monitored in the head-up display rose rapidly.
"I'm all right here, Patrick. Noyelu's voice came over the communicator.
"I feel it," said Patrick, with a noticeable tremor just now, "hold on a little longer, and there will be some time before the reactor explodes." ”
"No problem, you can tell me when the time is up, and we will collapse and teleport back immediately. ”
Patrick sighed.
"That...... Noyelu," G41 said with some hesitation, "the enemy's jammers are still there, and the collapse teleportation operation is unusable......"
"W......" Noyeru seemed to choke.
"So why are you wading through the muddy waters," Patrick said lightly, "I don't understand." ”
The temperature of the furnace continues to rise, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the dark side of the moon will be seen for the first time on Earth.
"I completely forgot about ......," Noyeru said.
Patrick was silent, he really didn't know what to say, making jokes in such a life-and-death situation really made people laugh.
"But, it doesn't matter, I don't regret it. Her tone was unexpectedly calm, "It's much better to die than to be studied and at the mercy of others as an experimental subject." Fighting to the end to protect everything you cherish, that's the best ending, at least that's what I think. ”
"Really......"
"Thank you, Patrick, my sisters must want to say to you too. Freedom and equality, something we never dared to fantasize about in our lives, became a reality because of what you did. Everyone has been reborn because of what you have done, because of your dedication. ”
"I'm still the same," Patrick said lightly, "everything I do is for my own selfish desires, not for anyone, it's just what I want to do." ”
"Warning, the temperature of the furnace has reached dangerous values. "The AED system sounded the final alarm.
It's finally coming.
"Unfortunately, you've been talking nonsense many times, and you haven't had the chance to experience a nuclear explosion for yourself, not even to see it. A fourth man's voice rang over the communicator.
