Chapter 7: The Return of the Ice Awakening

"Director Zheng, the nature of this black stick is indeed very strange." Shen Zixuan took a hot report and put it on Zheng Kai's desk, "We tentatively designated it as Y1 substance." This substance does not react in any way with machinery, but rather interferes with machinery. And once the creature touches it, it will instantly burst out with great power. ”

"I know, and it seems that the smarter and bigger the wielder, the power will be different." Zheng Kai drank coffee and tried to cheer up, "When the mice touch, it will emit a laser that can penetrate the bodies of other mice. However, the damage to the wall was not as great, but it also caused a short-lived guinea pig scramble. ”

"When some rabbits touch Y1, their emotions will become irritable, and Y1 can be pushed by rabbits, which can cause powerful destructive power in an instant."

"The monkey experiment was much more difficult to control." Zheng Kai flipped through the previous report, "The monkey who obtains Y1 will directly become the overlord among the monkeys." Y1 can be used as a blunt object, and it can kill other monkeys with a casual smash, and the monkey's IQ is aware of the importance of Y1. So there will be stealing and snatching while the monkey king is sleeping. But they also have enough power to make Y1 shoot high-energy lasers, or do more damage. ”

"Yes, so we've stopped experimenting with animals for the time being, but we can't do routine analysis either." Shen Zixuan said, glancing at the scientific research team that was busy, "But we have collected more Y1s now, and a rough estimate is about a few thousand." ”

"Have you tested the age of the surrounding rock formations?" Zheng Kai put down the report and looked at the picnic area liquids he had studied before, as well as the energy test of those hedrons.

"If you dig down with a spider robot, the age of the rock formation is about 15,000 to 7,800 years." Shen Zixuan said, "We can't analyze the Y1 material, the microscope that exists along the river can't see things at all, and other tools can't cut it." ”

"Then it can only be inferred that this is from the last batch, or at least the aliens who arrived in the five generations of our history." Zheng Kai said, also thinking about the energy that the underground spar can be converted into, "But because of the arrival of aliens, our view of history and worldview will also change." Perhaps civilizations around the world have flourished throughout history, but because of some of the latter reasons, it may be war, or it may be a lack of resources, which has led to the weakening of civilizations. ”

"We don't know that either, Director Zheng." Shen Zixuan answered, flipped through more than a dozen reports, "Luo resolutely began to ask us about the power supply, our solar panels are now about 20% of the conversion rate, although the black tower is covered with solar panels, but the city along the river will soon usher in a rainy season." So wind power has to start planning. ”

"Don't we have the talent to do that?" Zheng Kai wrote the next formula on the paper in front of him and sighed, "It turns out that what kind of power generation mode is Yanjiang City?" ”

"Natural gas power generation, but now because of the shortage of manpower, we can't run all the power generation units." Shen Zixuan reported, "And the natural gas in our cities along the river was originally transported through pipelines in other cities, not independently. Originally, the city's electricity generation was a combination of wind and hydropower. ”

"There shouldn't be a need for people with wind power and hydropower to go to the moon." Zheng Kai pondered, "In a peaceful state, how much electricity does Yanjiang City consume a day?" ”

"According to historical statistics, when the population is more than 10 million, 10 million kilowatts are consumed every day." The figures reported by Shen Zixuan gave Zheng Kai a headache, "Although we use solar energy now, and the population is not so large. But the consumption of underground excavation and other equipment is actually close to one million kilowatts. ”

"I'm not a Flash, how can I generate electricity." Zheng Kai tapped on the table with some anxiety, "Solar power generation can last about 30,000 kilowatts at present, but it is not constant, we have to run the original wind turbine quickly, and then build new, hydropower lines, and facilities also need a lot of energy." ”

Thinking of these, Zheng Kai has a head and three big, "1 cubic centimeter of spar below can generate more than 3,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity, let Lao Luo dig out 1 cubic meter, 3 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, counting the loss rate and some industrial development needs, it is no problem for half a year." ”

"Basically, this is the case, although the ore below will automatically absorb the energy that escapes from the surroundings, it will only grow by 1 cubic centimeter in a month, and a large piece will grow for 80,000 years." Zheng Kai painfully signed his name on the document handed by Shen Zixuan and stamped it, "The green slime still hasn't responded, right, let's give up the research for the time being." Then back to the original topic, has the energy source of Y1 been determined? ”

"Yes, it's the user's own energy, but it can be highly stimulated." Shen Zixuan said, "According to this, several researchers have proposed whether it is possible to try the soil method, where ordinary people take the spar and then hold Y1, so as to carry out more efficient energy transformation." ”

"It's a very earthy way, but it's also a very straightforward approach." Zheng Kai smiled bitterly and took out the paper from the drawer, "I'll go in person when the time comes, just take out a ...... 10 cubic centimeters of spar to study it. If it's a human experiment, I'll do it myself, because I don't have a thorough Y1 study, and I always feel uncomfortable. And if it can be utilized, the excavation of the ground will be smooth. ”

"Regarding the underground excavation, Director Zheng, have you received a report from Huang Jia and Bi Min here?"

"Received, let me recall......" Zheng Kai closed his eyes vigorously, recalling that he had seen two reports when he got up this morning, "I remembered, the excavation department elected Huang Jia as the temporary minister, and then the news from Bi Min's side is that because of the recent relocation to the ground and the lack of pollution in the picnic area, everyone is more willing to live on it and is reluctant to go back underground." ”

"It's not good news." Zheng Kai rubbed his eyebrows, "If you really want to say good news, I just don't know when the aliens will come, and those Starry Sky Sects are basically about to evacuate." ”

Before the words fell, the computer in front of Zheng Kai flashed a dazzling red light.

"Director Zheng, I'm Bi Min, and the radar has detected a supersonic flying object approaching our Yanjiang City!" Bi Min's voice came from the stereo, "I have prepared all the weapons that I can use at the moment, and the hot decoy bomb is ready to be fired." Director Zheng, we need your permission here, and we may need to use the missiles in reserve along the river. ”

"Yes, everything in the armory of Yanjiang City can be called by you at your disposal." Zheng Kai took a deep breath, tensed his nerves, stood up and nodded at Shen Zixuan.

"The air defense siren has already begun to be broadcast." Luo Yiran's voice came from another channel, "Start letting residents take refuge in the dungeon." ”

"Luo resolutely, let the Ministry of Mining temporarily stop digging." Zheng Kai quickly grabbed the phone, "Xia Xiaoyan, you are responsible for controlling the robot and sending Y1 to the bottom as soon as possible." ”

"Roger!"

"Director Zheng, the UFO has approached the sky over Yanjiang City, and the hot decoy bomb is ready to ...... Wait a minute? Is it human? Bi Min's voice came from the stereo, "Zheng Kai, it's Bing Shijue!" He came back alive! ”

"Ice Enlightenment?" Zheng Kai quickly went through the information he had come into contact with in his mind, and now that most of the Starry Sky Sect had gone to the moon and the alien ship had fallen, it seemed that there was no point in capturing Bing Shijue. It is even said that the attachment to the ice is the attachment that only aliens can have.

He had previously listened to the director of the bureau, and when he listened to Ma Bingshi's recording, he learned that the aliens wanted to get the ability of ice enlightenment, and then leave the earth, and harvest the earth like a weed on the side of the road. Then at this time, Bing Shijue must not be handed over to the other party.

But to a certain extent, if there is a negotiation and the ice is used as a bargaining chip to protect the earth, it is acceptable.

So I learned that the purpose of the picnic area was to protect Bing Shijue and use his ability to fight. That's why it's used this way. The city, on the other hand, wants to sell the Ice Awakening in exchange for the safety of the existing people on Earth. There is no right or wrong on either side, one chooses dignity and the other chooses survival.

It's like the current Starry Sky Sect and Earth Sect, but it's changed.

"Bing Shijue is the worst." Zheng Kai sighed, when he was just a little researcher, he naturally felt that the way the picnic area cultivated children was too cruel, and he treated the city mercilessly. I can't understand why Ma Bingshi suddenly attacked the city, and why he brought refugees here.

Now he can understand part of it.

Ma Bingshi is also nowhere to go, there are aliens watching everything. There are people in the picnic area behind them to survive.

So he took the hardest path, made himself a sinner, and really did what a sinner did, breaking down the defenses of all the cities, and letting into the cities those who were excluded by the city, by the picnic areas. With a small sacrifice, more people can survive.

Then, taking advantage of the turmoil, let Bing Shijue leave. Let the people in the picnic area also be confused, and let the aliens above also be confused about the true existence of Bing Shijue. It is speculated that Ice Sense's strength will grow rapidly.

Finally, take a gamble and put Bing Shijue face the aliens.

If they lose, humanity will lose such a powerful help as Ice Sense, but everyone on Earth will be safe and sound. At worst, it's just the same as the original plan of the city. But he was able to save many people.

But once victorious, humanity will have all the technology of the aliens completely.

It's just that Ma Bingshi didn't expect that the technological level of aliens is too much higher than that of humans, and it will come soon.

This led to a re-division of humanity.

"I'm not the same person I used to be." Zheng Kai clicked on the computer screen, adjusted the size of the camera, and saw the surprised people in the city, as well as those who had been saved by Bing Shijue, waving to him, although Bi Min also smiled, but did not stop his men from putting down their guns.

Luo Yiran was too, although he also walked over to welcome, but he still did not pass on the order from the ground.

"We've all changed." Zheng Kai realized that he was actually thinking in his head about how to make the most of Bing Shijue's abilities, such as using the information he knew about his parents in exchange for asking him to help dig the underground passage. and help check what exactly the Y1 substance is. Or use him for human experiments, because he has great self-healing powers.

"It's no longer a little researcher, it's a ...... from the city along the river. Director. Zheng Kai looked at the screen, his somewhat illusory reflection, he was no longer wearing a white coat, and the clothes on his body had also changed, "Shen Zixuan, let's go see Bing Shijue." ”

The Ice Awakening, which was floating in the air, swept over the faces of those who were either happy, welcomed, or frightened, and after a few seconds, he could only sigh in his heart. His divine thoughts have now spread to 90 kilometers, and the entire city along the river has been clear in his mind, even the outside safety zone and danger zone are clear, but inside, there are still no parents of his own.

"There's a lot of weird stuff underground." When the Divine Thoughts were injected into the ground, Bing Shijue noticed many slender black sticks, and these sticks actually absorbed the Divine Thoughts a little. Digging a little further down, you can feel a hazy covering, which is very different from the way the ship in the picnic area is covered.

If the shelter of the spaceship in the picnic area is like a door, bluntly isolated. Then this sense of isolation under the city along the river is like a thick mist, hazy, looming, but it can never penetrate.

"Long time no see, Bing Shijue." Just as Bing Shijue was thinking, he noticed a familiar voice coming from the entrance of the underground passage, and when Zheng Kai went out, the residents who were waving to him or looking at him slowly returned to their rooms.

"Zheng Kai, it's been a long time." Bing Shijue watched as Zheng Kai's clothes changed, and there was a woman standing beside him who was full of vigilance and curiosity about him, and he had never seen before. Shen Nian pulled out of the ground again, and when he subconsciously looked at these acquaintances, he also noticed that in addition to the joy of meeting, there was also a trace of nervousness and uneasiness in the emotions they exuded.

"My identity has changed." Bing Shijue noticed that Bi Min and Luo Yiran were followed by some people, and behind them seemed to be the residents of Yanjiang City. And some of the guns in the distance still have soldiers in the handles, and the scope is also aimed at them.

"Looks like you've been through a lot." Bing Shijue can also understand that if he has no power to restrain the chicken, he suddenly sees a "immortal cultivator" who he once knew, who can lift several tons of weight, fly down from the sky, and solve the problem that has plagued them for decades, more worry than worship.

"It's great that you can understand." Zheng Kai nodded, but still didn't let Bi Min on the side give an order.

"If you suspect that I'm not Bing Shijue, then there's no need." With a glance at Bing Shijue, all the uncleaned stones, garbage, and useless things in the corners of the entire riverside city suddenly rose into the air, floating over the entire city like stars.

In an instant, the sky of the entire riverside city became gloomy.
