Chapter 113: The Defective Ship and the Final Choice (Part II)
Duanqing's face was embarrassed, and after a few seconds, he still opened his mouth to explain: "That story is really long. I'll pick some of them and tell you about them first. In a nutshell...... There is no room left in that maritime city. ”
"I mean that." She strengthened her tone, "There's not even a place to stay!" It's really not enough to fit 100,000 people! ”
"Don't be in a hurry to doubt it, listen to me."
"The area of the maritime city itself is huge, more than 100 times larger than the Forbidden City, the largest ancient building complex in China, and larger than the area enclosed by the Second Ring Road of the Imperial Capital, reaching 89 square kilometers! However, the core of it, which is located in the very center, the Civilization Arena, is only the size of a villa! ”
"It's a small three-story villa with an area of less than 400 square meters."
"It's really that small!"
"You may be curious about the use of other parts, in fact, more than 99.9% of the area of the outer ring, all of which are 'power plants.'"
When she said this, Sister Duanhan's eyes narrowed: "Power plant? What is it used for? Power the civilization arena of several hundred square meters in the middle? ”
"That's right!" Sister Duanqing said excitedly.
"The top-secret information I have obtained from my family, as well as my later status as chief designer, underscores the importance of this arena, which is part of the long story that I will tell you later."
"It is something that our human civilization can only use in the most critical moment, and it can save life."
"Only with enough energy, to put it bluntly, the electricity of the power plant, can this thing work."
"In fact, with the exception of the villa-like small triplex in the middle, 99.9 percent of the surrounding area is a slot that has been made for power generation."
"I need to build a generator on the socket, whether it's a thermal power plant or a nuclear power plant or something, I have to ensure that the power generation reaches 7 trillion kilowatt hours, which is equivalent to more than a quarter of the world's total electricity generation in a year! This is a tremendous amount and an extremely difficult question. ”
"In order to build enough power stations, and to compress them into such a small area, to store enough fuel, I've taken up every single part of these power card slots. The good news is that the place is almost just enough; But the bad news is that there is nothing left to spare, and even the operation and maintenance personnel are having a hard time. ”
"The civilization arena in the shape of a small villa in the middle, as well as the nearly 100 square kilometers of slots outside, are all made by the existence I don't know, and it seems that that existence is stuck in the limit of our human manufacturing ability, to provide this slot and civilization arena."
"In fact, most of my energy over the past decade has been spent designing and building a sound power plant structure. Perhaps it may be because of this that the design and construction of the human refuge method itself was neglected......"
"Of course, the big ship system itself is, I think it's robust enough. All superships are deep draft models of iceberg structures. In order to increase stability, the top is covered with waterproof, various anti-rollover technologies, etc., all ensure survival. ”
"Take the 'Humans', which concentrates the last elite. This 10-million-ton supership, the largest supership that carries the vast majority of human existence, is the part that consumes the most energy for me! ”
"In terms of hulls, the average supership has two hulls. But the hull of the 'Human' has reached an astonishing four hulls! Do you know how many technical problems had to be overcome in this four-layer hull alone? ”
"Not only that, the 'Human' super ship has a displacement of 10 million tons, a body size of more than 1,000 meters, and the body of the ship is divided into 31 areas, which ensures that it will not sink even in the event of water leakage."
"I put hundreds of tons of sodium peroxide, potassium superoxide and other compounds in it to cope with the possible lack of oxygen in the atmosphere after the tsunami."
"I put in a lot of materials and separators that can effectively resist corrosion, and I can deal with possible virus invasion and corrosive invasion behaviors that have already occurred."
"I increased the rest room for the crew to relax mentally, deliberately slightly increasing the proportion of women of childbearing age in the population......"
"I've actually done quite well in all aspects!"
"But if that's not enough......"
"I don't know what I can do better."
When Duan Qing said this, her expression was a little depressed.
Xu Liang dragged his chin and gave a solution that was not a solution: "Transfer." ”
"If you can't transfer to that maritime city in the central region, that hell it's the arena of civilization wrapped in power plants. Then spread it out as much as possible across the mega wheels. ”
"The 'Human' super giant ship, I looked at it at a glance, and the survival rate was only about one-third. ...... with the highest survival rate It should be the 'Eco' super giant ship, more than 45%. All in all, let's disperse the transfer. ”
Xu Liang's method can be said to be the simplest, and it may also be the most effective.
If you don't put your eggs in one cage, everyone runs separately, and if some of the megaships survive the final tsunami, everyone on board will survive.
Pure luck.
It's better than most people are on the 'Human'. Although Duan Qing said that the 'Human' was the super giant ship with the most sound defense system she designed, this giant ship gave Xu Liang a terrible feeling.
And if the Human doesn't resist, it's really all over.
However, Duan Qing was not so easily persuaded, otherwise, she would not have been able to occupy such a high position.
"Why should I listen to you? How can I be sure that what you say is right? ”
Xu Liang shook his head.
"It boils down to whether you trust my instincts or not." He said.
"Actually, how I got all the way, I believe you also saw it through various channels. The 10,000 impossible things I've done before have proven my judgment, my intuitive ability. ”
"You can talk to me about science."
"You could say that in science, intuition is inexplicable. But intuition is this thing. I did, and it just worked! ”
"What is the spirit of science? Your sister Duanhan has popularized it to me, and the spirit of science is actually in line with reality to put it bluntly! It just works! If scientific theories contradict reality, what we need to do is not to distort reality, but to revise scientific theories, or even create scientific theories, and make science conform to reality, and this is the true scientific spirit! ”
"Since even a level 13 tsunami can come, since even the civilization arena can appear, and since there are already too many things beyond what can be explained by current technology, why can't we open our horizons and accept some advanced theories, instead of directly denying them?"
"In addition to this reason, there is a more important reason." When Xu Liang said this, his voice was lowered, but it was more convincing, "Don't you have a story that you haven't told me?" ”
Duan Qing: "Yes. ”
Xu Liang: "That story should also be related to the Civilization Arena and the key, right?" ”
Duan Qing: "Yes. ”
Xu nodded: "Now, the most important key is in my hand, whether I got this key through luck or coincidence or something else, the key is only available to me." ”
"So, even if you don't believe me, you should believe the key, right?"
Duan Qing showed a hesitant expression on her face.
After a long time, she said, "I admit, you have partially convinced me. But don't think I'm all obedient to you, I can't do it! Don't forget that we were still in a hostile relationship just now! ”
Xu Liang shrugged.
"But I reluctantly agree with the scattered method you said, after all, it is really possible to really save some more people......" Duan Qing said, "But don't you want me to listen to you!" Don't even think about it! I'm not like the group of officers behind you, I'm ...... Forget it, and, by the way, there's another one, you're going to give my sister back! ”
Xu Liang: ???
This leapfrog thinking...... The span is too big, right?
Duan Qing: "You have snatched my sister away for so many years, and you have taken it all badly!" Give my sister back! ”
Xu Liang thought: The old end is too useful, and it can't be returned if it is killed.
Duan Han crossed his hands and said, "Hey, you two figure it out, I'm the one with the most right to speak, right?" You both have to listen to me. ”
Yes, this triangle is not clear.
Duan Qing glared at Xu Liang fiercely, just like looking at a rival in love.
Xu Liang didn't explain, didn't speak, and glared back.
More momentum.
After looking at it for a second or two, Lao Xu suddenly reacted, it doesn't seem to be the time to fight for this, right?
How long is there until the final hour?
Xu Liang: "When the final tsunami broke out ......"
"Quick, quick! After talking about it for so long, a lot of time was wasted moving and observing...... How long is left? ”
Duan Qing also returned to work, she checked the display board, and said:
"There's no point in talking about time now. On the instrument display, the red line of the outbreak time has reached the highest! At all hours! Anytime! can erupt! It won't take more than 12 hours at most! ”
"So......" Duanqing looked at Xu Liang and asked, "Aren't you very intuitive?" Which ship are you going to board? Have you chosen? Once you've chosen, hurry up! ”
Xu Liang looked out the window at this, looked at that, and did not answer immediately.
"Or are you going to the middle sea city now? Although you can't fit too many people on it, dozens or hundreds are still fine. ”
"How do you choose?"
