Chapter 424: Limit Twenty-Four Hours
"The texture of this asteroid is indeed harder than expected, but the only remaining fragment diameter is within our control, and it can be dealt with the power of the Shenwei space-based weapon system."
As Xu Yun made a decision, Zhang Feng, who was also in the control hall, immediately agreed.
He has always been responsible for the deployment of the Shenwei space-based weapon system, and his power is naturally very clear.
No matter how hard the texture of the God Destroying Star is, it can still be solved with the power of the Shenwei Space-based Weapon System.
Destroy it completely.
The remaining meteorites will be burned up in the atmosphere.
For domestic scientists, they naturally know about the Shenwei system and will not have objections to this decision.
However, the scientists of the overseas alliance, led by Professor Richter, were somewhat worried.
I am afraid that something new will happen at that time.
At the current speed of the debris of Destroyer, it will not take long to reach Earth.
If the Shenwei space-based weapon system fails to intercept it by then, the earth will definitely be hit by this piece of debris.
Although this fragment is nothing compared to the entire Destroyer.
But if it falls in the city, it will still cause a lot of casualties.
Economic loss.
At a time when human civilization is at a stage of advanced development, no one wants to see such a demoralization blow happen.
What's more, hundreds of nuclear bombs were detonated at the same time, but none of them were completely destroyed.
It's enough to prove how hard the planet is.
In the face of the only remaining opportunities, it is indeed necessary to be cautious.
So a few seconds after Zhang Feng's words fell, Professor Richter in the crowd still didn't hold back his emotions, and took the initiative to take two steps ahead and raise his concerns.
"Academician Xu."
"As far as I know, your space-based weapon system has never been on a mission to strike high-speed moving targets in space, so is it a bit risky to intercept the fragments of the planet at this time?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Mingwei and the others suddenly looked a little unhappy.
After all, they all firmly supported Xu Yun's decision, and it would not be comfortable to be questioned by Rickett now.
It looks like they're deliberately taking risks.
But I have to say that the other party's words are not without a little truth.
Since the deployment of the Shenwei space-based weapon system has been completed, the Shenwei space-based weapon system has only carried out two missions.
Strikes against lunar targets as well as strikes against ground targets.
Without exception, these targets are dead and do not dodge.
But now the fragments of the Destroyer are moving at a high speed, even several times faster than the Destroyer.
Not to mention whether the Shenwei space-based weapon can hit accurately at that time, it will not be easy to completely smash it.
After all, the texture of this asteroid is very hard.
And Shenwei space-based weapons belong to physical kinetic weapons.
However, Xu Yun's decision to make himself is absolutely impossible to change immediately because of other people's two sentences, not to mention that he is very confident in the space-based weapons he has developed.
However, it is worth mentioning that he did not argue with Rickett about the effectiveness and accuracy of Shenwei's space-based weapons.
Just gagged Richter's mouth with a word.
"It won't be long before this piece of debris reaches Earth, and activating the Shenwei space-based weapon system is the most suitable method."
"Or is there a better way for Professor Rickett?"
In the end, he asked a rhetorical question, which made Richett sweat instantly.
Not to mention asking him to find a solution in such a short time, even if the time is extended for a few more days, there is no way.
Although he was embarrassed in front of many alliance scientists, he had to retract what he had just said.
"What Academician Xu taught is that I agree to use space-based weapons."
The words were so fast that I didn't have the thought just now.
And at this time, the others naturally had no opinion, and passed the decision on the spot.
In this regard, Zhang Feng naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately accessed the system authority in the general control center.
Proceed to activate the Shenwei space-based weapons deployed in low-earth orbit.
and try to lock onto the Fragment of Destruction.
In addition, spacecraft such as nearby satellite space stations will be moved to other areas as much as possible.
Prevent accidental injury from space-based weapons.
Meanwhile.
After deciding on the response plan, the alliance immediately chose to announce it to the outside world.
Inform everyone of the existence of the Fragment of the Destroyer.
Since there has never been any concealment in the event of destroying the gods, seeing that the crisis is about to be completely resolved, it must not lose credibility and affect the rapid development of human civilization in the future.
That's it.
When the announcement of the Alliance for the Security of Humanity in Space came out, many people seemed less calm.
Unexpectedly, hundreds of nuclear bombs were detonated at the same time, but none of them completely destroyed the asteroid.
It's scary enough to imagine.
Fortunately, Xu Yun's explanation and assurance made everyone regain confidence.
It was determined that the Shenwei space-based weapon system could solve the fragments of the Destruction of the Gods, and the worries in my heart disappeared.
After all, countless facts have proved that Xu Yun's guarantee has never been missed.
"Fortunately, we have prepared a backup plan, otherwise it would have been just a piece of debris blown up from an asteroid, which would have caused a lot of casualties and losses."
"The deployment of space-based weapon systems was too forward-looking."
"I can't imagine what I would do in the face of this fragment without the Shenwei Space-based Weapon."
"I can't imagine what it would be like if this piece of debris landed in my city."
"Believe in Academician Xu, believe in the Security Alliance."
"I feel like everyone can do what they should do, and the crisis is basically over."
"This asteroid is so hard that hundreds of nuclear bombs detonate at the same time and all of them have fragments of this size surviving."
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much, even if we don't have space-based weapons, we can stop this piece of debris by abandoning the Pilot."
……
Compared with the heated discussion in the live broadcast room at the moment, the most nervous thing is the personnel stationed at the moon base.
As the debris of Destroyer swept past Mars, the mission to monitor it naturally fell on the side of the lunar base.
In addition, they also need to cooperate with space-based weapons to carry out strikes, which can be said to be a difficult and very important task.
There is no room for carelessness.
Fortunately, they don't have to worry about debris hitting the moon like the Martian base.
Resulting in damage to the base.
After the debris reaches the Earth's orbit, it will fall into the Earth under the influence of the Earth's gravity as long as it is shattered again by the Shenwei space-based weapon system.
Eventually, it was burned up by the atmosphere.
There will only be a brilliant meteor shower.
It won't hit the moon.
——
"The location of the Destroyer fragment has been monitored and real-time tracking is underway."
"Expected to reach Earth in twenty-six hours."
……
"Immediately transmit the data to the general control, calculate the process of the impact of the debris on the earth, and get the area that may be affected as soon as possible." In the core module of the Moon Palace No. 1 base, Sun Yingxin, who served as the commander of the base, gave orders in an orderly manner.
At this moment, his expression was very serious, and he didn't dare to be sloppy.
Using quantum computers and artificial intelligence, the whole process of the impact of debris on Earth is simulated.
The affected area can be identified so that it can be channeled in advance to minimize casualties caused by debris impact.
It's also about preparing for the worst.
After all, anything can happen until the final result is out.
Proceeding from the actual situation, the speed of the physical kinetic energy device launched by the Shenwei space-based weapon system is limited.
When striking ground targets, it can also rely on gravity to accelerate.
But intercepting fragments of the Destroyer in space, whose speed is enhanced by a nuclear bomb explosion, is indeed difficult.
This requires precise calculations to intercept.
The difference of minutes and seconds can lead to the final interception failure.
However, the probability of simulating the impact of the debris fragments of the Destruction Star is basically 100%.
That's it.
As the data was transferred to the master controller and calculated, the results were obtained in just two hours.
Identify areas where the debris of Destruction may be affected.
"It's actually in our coastal city, this piece of fragment really knows how to choose a place!"
At this time, Xu Yun looked at the report submitted by the people below, and after discovering that the impact of the debris of the Destroying God Star might affect several coastal cities, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
I didn't expect things to go in a bad direction.
After all, if the affected area is an ocean or a desert, then even if the space-based weapon is not successfully intercepted, it will basically not cause much impact.
But the impact site was in a coastal city.
In this way, it is necessary to be more cautious, and in any case, it is necessary to ensure that the Shenwei space-based weapon successfully intercepts the fragments of the Destruction of the Gods.
Just as Xu Yun was thinking about this, he only heard Zhou Mingwei's familiar voice in his ears.
"What should we do now, there is no need to issue an early warning to these cities."
At the moment, Zhou Mingwei is a little entangled, he naturally believes that Xu Yun believes that the Shenwei space-based weapon system can intercept the fragments of the Destruction of God Star and completely solve this crisis.
But when it comes to a few cities, to say that there is no concern at all is absolutely false.
So in this case, he had to ask Xu Yun for advice.
And listening to all Zhou Mingwei's words in his ears, Xu Yun basically understood what the other party was thinking.
In general, it is necessary to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Therefore, there must be options.
The thought stayed here, Xu Yun no longer hesitated anything, and immediately said to Zhou Mingwei:
"Follow the process to issue early warning information to these cities, regardless of whether the Shenwei space-based weapon system can intercept the fragments of the Destruction of the Gods, this is always a guarantee."
"I'll arrange it." Zhou Mingwei nodded and said in a deep voice.
With only twenty-four hours left, it is almost impossible to get people from a few cities to move.
The so-called early warning is nothing more than to let everyone be prepared.
You can prepare some food and water sources in advance and take shelter in places such as bomb shelters.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that when the warning information was released through various official channels and live broadcast rooms, everyone's approach reached an unprecedented unparallel.
That is to choose to believe in the Shenwei space-based weapon system and still stay in his own home.
If you go to the city that has been alerted at this time, you will find that many people are on the streets.
Cheer on the Alliance's response to the Planet of Destruction.
Support with your own practical actions.
There are even people who have formed a special team to the rooftop with food and water sources, giving the statement that they want to witness the meteor shower with their own eyes.
Because this is the best proof of the victory of human civilization.
And this approach has also been recognized by all over the world, and they all firmly believe that the scientific group of the Human Space Security Alliance headed by Xu Yun has successfully solved the crisis caused by the destruction of the god star, so a small fragment is naturally not to be taken seriously.
If you really give up your home and take refuge outside because of this, it will be too much to look down on human civilization.
The impact and heat of the topic is also high, and the Internet is full of unwavering statements.
"I believe that our space-based weapons can intercept the fragments of the Destroyer, so there is no need to dodge them at all."
"You can always trust Academician Xu."
"I heard that if the space-based weapon intercepts it successfully, you can see a brilliant meteor shower."
"This meteor shower will become the best hymn to human civilization."
"People are on the rooftop, waiting to witness this man-made meteor shower."
"There are still twenty-four hours, and suddenly I feel like I've never been so enthusiastic as I am today."
Regarding everyone's decision, Xu Yun naturally grasped the specific situation for the first time.
But when he heard the news, he was not surprised.
Since everyone is willing to believe him, then he can't live up to everyone's trust.
After a brief moment, he quickly put himself in control of the situation, and issued a series of instructions to the Shenwei space-based weapon system in the only twenty-four hours left.
Make sure the system doesn't drop the chain at a critical moment.
"The Shenwei space-based weapon system has entered the self-test procedure, and all orbital platforms are on standby at any time."
"Always track the trajectory of the debris of the Destroyer."
"For the last twenty-four hours, I hope everyone will be ready for battle."
"Please."
As Xu Yun's words fell, the personnel in the control and command hall also seemed to be encouraged, although they had hardly rested since the deployment of the nuclear bomb, they did not dare to slack off at this time.
Even the scientists in the hall chose to take charge of the basic instructions themselves.
It is worth mentioning that during this period, the Pilot applied many times to participate in the strike mission of destroying the fragments of the god star, but Xu Yun vetoed it for the same reason.
The reason is that the Pilot is the most successful scientific and technological crystallization of human civilization and must not be damaged in any way.
It may be the reason why everyone is paying attention to this 24-hour countdown, even though it is only a day, but it always feels like time passes so slowly that people are anxious.
I can't wait to press the fast-forward button and hurry up to the important moment to intercept the fragments of the Destroyer.
In this state, as time passed minute by minute, twenty-four hours finally passed.
At about eight o'clock in the evening, under the multiple monitoring of the space station probe of the lunar base, the very irregular fragments of the Destruction Star finally approached the Earth.
But at the same time, it also entered the attack range of the Shenwei space-based weapon system.
"The Shenwei system has successfully locked onto the target, is it launched?"
Xu Yun, who had not rested much in the control hall at night, finally heard this command broadcast, his spirit was suddenly shaken and his sleepiness was swept away, looking at the black fragment of the God Destroying Star on the screen in front of him, and without any hesitation, he decisively gave the final order.
"Launch."
Almost the next second these two words came out of his mouth, the space-based weapon far away on the Earth's orbital platform suddenly launched a precise collision with the fragments of the Destroyer.
