Chapter 619 Self Destruction



Chapter 619 Self Destruction
In this age of simulation, human beings have already possessed the same ability as the enemy to open the adjacent dimension channel, but this does not mean that it is safe to artificially create the entropy-increasing jump zone.

The reason is simple, what they want to do is not a forward channel, but a reverse channel to output energy to the other party.

Due to the irreversibility of entropy increase, such an operation is likely to cause the area to go out of control, devouring all matter and energy including the center of the road sign.

And once this happens, there is only one ending waiting for the center of Rongcheng——doom.

Of course, they are not the only hope for human beings. Even if they fail for the first time, they can try again after the new landmark center is established.

But the problem is, no one knows how many times it takes to succeed.

"We need your assistance."

Just as Ye Zhou was worrying about the future of Rongcheng Center, a woman's voice came over hundreds of years again.

Ye Zhou shook his head lightly, dispelled the chaotic thoughts in his heart, and asked:
"What do you need me to do?"

"I need you to leave the interior of Shanghai Center, go to the outside entropy jump layer to collect data, and then pass the information to me."

"We need to rebuild the model of Shanghai Center and restore its external environment [-]%!"

At this moment, the woman's voice changed from the calm and steady one she had when communicating with Ye Zhou, and instead carried a bit of decisive determination.

She probably also knows that this is an opportunity that cannot be missed, nor can it be avoided.

"I get it, but I need remote guidance."

"The transportation system of Shanghai Center has been completely paralyzed, and all exits have been closed. I need you to help me find the weak points of the structure. I want to blow up the passage!"

In fact, Ye Zhou can also use the talent of the structural master to find the weak point by himself, but the problem is that the scale of Shanghai Center is too large, and when he returns after searching, the day lily will be cold.

"Understood, I have the structure diagram of Shanghai Center here, give me 20 seconds."

After a short pause, the woman continued:

"The No. 6 spare warehouse in the East District has an inner and outer wall thickness of only 6 meters, and there is no solid steel structure. It is the most efficient to go out from here, but this area is a redundant backup area, using a gravity-stabilized structure, and external damage is likely to lead to collapse."

"After the collapse, the structure here will form a new support for the entire Shanghai Center. If you want to open a gap here, you must control the explosion equivalent very precisely."

Ye Zhou looked at the simple structure diagram passed by the woman. Just as she said, the No. 6 warehouse is a purely redundant design, which is far away from the core area of ​​Shanghai Center.

Even without considering the success rate, he didn't want to choose this point.

The reason is very simple. The energy source of Shanghai Center has almost been completely cut off, and what can be maintained now is only the most basic life support system. If he wants to pull the explosives there, he can only use people to carry them on his shoulders.

It takes at least 4 hours for a round trip, and the efficiency is too low.

"Are there any other alternatives?"

he asked.

"The outer wall at the end of the No. 1 staff accommodation area is fine. The protection there is very strong and supported by a solid steel structure, but I remember that each center will be equipped with a batch of high-temperature explosives, and the equivalent should be sufficient."

"The same is true for District 1, which is opposite to District 3."

"Besides that, there are the side walls of the staff hall, where the problem is that there is too much space, and the explosion could spread throughout the center and completely destroy the life support system."

"After excluding all these options, the final choice is to go through the central gate. However, according to your data, the part leading to the gate has collapsed. You need to cross two obstacle areas, and the cost is too high."

Shanghai Center is actually a star-shaped structure connecting radial buildings outside a regular pentagon. The locations mentioned by the woman are at the tops of the two starbursts and the top corners of the pentagon.

From the perspective of success rate, the top of the pentagon is the best choice.

Moreover, the No. 1 staff dormitory area is relatively close to the dangerous goods storage compartment and to his own location, so there is no time in time.

"I understand, now go to the reserve warehouse and prepare to start execution."

After finishing speaking, Ye Zhou lifted his foot and walked towards the warehouse.

In the last simulation, he had basically figured out the route, and everything went extremely smoothly. It took less than 4 hours to arrange all the explosives.

"Is it detonated directly?"

Ye Zhou asked.

At this time, he had already evacuated to the staff dormitory in the distance. The thick partition wall would shield him from the high temperature and impact force generated by the explosion. If he was directly exposed to the passage, his whole body would probably be evaporated.

"Wait, we need to do a preliminary damage estimate."

"The periphery of Shanghai Center should be a vacuum environment. Once the exit is opened and the balance is broken, there is a risk of the entropy jump zone spreading."

"Have you confirmed that your protective clothing is complete?"

The protective suit Ye Zhou was wearing was just taken out of the road sign core room. It had been tested in the last simulation, and its safety was not a problem.

"The confirmation is complete, there is no problem."

"Understood, please use the smart assistant to connect the detonator, and give me the detonation authority, and we will detonate the explosives step by step."

"Okay, handed over."

After a short silence, the woman said:
"Ready."

"let's start."

Ye Zhou said calmly.

His body was pressed against the wall, the door of the dormitory room was closed, and he had already made all preparations against impact.

But on the other side, there was no movement in Rongcheng.

"Any questions?"

he asked.

"...This is not a foolproof operation, do you know that?"

Ye Zhou couldn't help but want to laugh, but of course he could understand the other party's kindness.

"I'm fully aware. But, we have to take the first step anyway."

"If you want to talk about danger, the greater danger is the subsequent approach to the jump zone of entropy increase. If you haven't reached that point, don't waste time, let's make a quick decision!"

"Received. The countdown to the explosion is 30 seconds."

"20 seconds."

Ye Zhou sat quietly on the spot, without any abnormal waves in his heart.

For him, the ending of the sacrifice is actually doomed, and it is not he who makes the choice, but this...his junior he plays.

As the countdown ended, violent explosions suddenly tore through the air, and ghostly screams whizzed past in the corridor.

The temperature in the whole area rose to hundreds of degrees in an instant. Under the protection of the protective clothing, Ye Zhou was fine.

But, this is just the beginning.

There was a huge pressure difference between the vacuum outside and the inside of the central building. In the room where Ye Zhou was, the door was deformed inch by inch, and then it was blown out like a piece of paper!

And his own body also flew upside down in the strong wind, flying along the corridor all the way to the apex of the stars.

In front of him, there was a turbulent receding light.

And behind him, there was endless darkness.
