Chapter 608

Solar system, Pluto.

After the solar system enters the stage of large-scale development, if there is any place where human footprints have not been set foot, it is this dark star field at the edge of the solar system.

It's not that it's too far away from the earth. In fact, the most cutting-edge military engine technology on the earth has been rapidly updated to the 18th generation. Regardless of cost, the conventional cruise speed in the solar system has been close to 1% of the speed of light, and the distance from the earth to Pluto has been compressed to an amazing month.

However, it belongs to the special high-risk experimental base of the "cloud Research Institute", so it belongs to the "military restricted zone" within tens of millions of kilometers around Pluto.

With the solar system becoming more and more prosperous, and the newly launched space transport spacecraft are all over the channel, many high-risk laboratories of the cloud Research Institute have to be transferred from the "city center" of the solar system to the "suburbs".

Fortunately, remote robot technology is not affected. For scientists, it is just to log in at another physical address.

However, only a few dozen people, such as Yu Lao, who have the highest scientific research authority, are qualified to land in this dark place where the sun is dim.

At this time, in a huge crater of Pluto

"The countdown for the first test explosion of Hades I planetary destruction bomb is ready. Please evacuate all units as soon as possible. Those who insist on staying please check their pain adjustment for the last time..."

"The preparations are finished, and the countdown begins! 10, 9, 8, 7..."

"Boom!" at the end of the countdown, an incomparably dazzling light exploded in the crater and rushed into the sky!

The huge spherical shock wave swept across and slowly spread to the smaller half of the sphere. The earth cracked and vibrated, the underground magma gushed out, and the dust covered the sky and the sun. The scene was terrible!

It was not until half an hour later that the violent shock of the whole planet slowly disappeared, but aftershocks came from time to time, indicating that the geological changes inside the planet did not completely disappear.

At the core of the explosion, the original small crater has been expanded into a huge basin. The gushing underground magma is slowly turning it into a magma lake, but then it cools rapidly in a vacuum and low temperature environment.

Looking down from the universe, the dark red magma flashes like a "devil's eye" opened on Pluto.

In Pluto's high-altitude orbit, a small observation platform is floating above the explosion point. On the platform, several small robots are pointing at the terrible scene below.

"Conduct explosion data evaluation and confirm that the level 5 armor target 500 km away is completely crushed, the level 3 armor 1000 km away is level 2 burned, and the simulated creature 1500 km away is level 3 burned."

"In the vacuum environment, the damage degree of the planetary surface is 8.79%. The atmospheric environment damage model has been established. It is expected that the simulation results will be completed in 10 minutes..."

"The three scientific research bases on the back of the planet were affected by the explosion and vibration, and were damaged to varying degrees. The loss report has been automatically generated, and the repair is expected to take 10 hours..."

“……”

Looking at Pluto, which was completely awakened from his deep sleep, Carl, a scientist who had just joined the cloud Research Institute, couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Carl, 63, was born in a Jewish family. He won the International Olympic physics gold medal at the age of 13. He skipped high school and entered MIT at the age of 14. At the age of 16, he worked for NASA to engage in astrophysics research. He is an S-class key protection scientist in the United States.

After the ghost captain was born, he published high-level basic scientific research papers such as "weak gravitational lens theory and data analysis" and "wormhole formation and expansion model conjecture" in the virtual world of science and technology tree, which immediately attracted the attention of cloud research institutes.

It is not long ago that they obtained Nie Yun's first-hand data, which confirmed that the wormhole has expandable characteristics under the condition of extreme charging.

This theory obtained from Gemini was also a great success in "ocean tide operation", and destroyed a wormhole charging device of Locke consortium, which was verified by facts!

After brain evaluation and analysis, the cloud Research Institute finally decided to list Carl as the solicitation object and supplement the 18th bachelor!

As one of the most important departments under his command, Nie Yun naturally reviews the recruitment of cloud research institutes in person.

Carl's ability and resume are impeccable. Nie Yun really needs talents for his foresight and professionalism of wormhole model. As for loyalty... Well, these are small problems!

With a big hand, the 18th bachelor reserve officially joined, and today's Pluto explosion experiment is the first time Carl participated in the high-end research of the cloud Research Institute as an assistant "intern".

"Yu Lao, is it really OK for us to destroy Pluto like this?" Carl turned his head and asked with a lingering fear on his face.

"Hehe! It's not the earth here, and it doesn't have much development value. The boss said that it's okay to dismantle Pluto!" Yu said with a smile.

It's okay to dismantle it?!

This was once the ninth planet in the solar system. Is it a destruction of intangible cultural heritage?

Although Pluto's ninth planet doesn't live up to its name, it was classified as a dwarf planet in 2006, and its size is not even as big as the moon, but this can't hide the fact that it is a "past star".

If people know that they and others are engaged in destructive experiments on Pluto, will cosmic environmentalists jump out and condemn themselves?

Putting aside the strange thoughts in his mind, Carl looks back at the center of Pluto's explosion.

Hades type I planetary destruction bomb is said to be one of the sub projects of the "Pluto plan" of the cloud Research Institute. The purpose is to make use of the high-energy characteristics of the energy crystal to manufacture small and portable shipborne starborne weapons, so as to give the enemy a "nuclear deterrence" level of deterrence!

From the perspective of explosion effect, the power is equivalent to 10 billion tons of TNT equivalent. The destructive power of explosion in vacuum environment will be greatly weakened, but if it is in atmospheric environment... It is definitely the doomsday scene of destroying heaven and earth, a terrible ecological disaster!

The data flow related to the experiment in Carl's eyes passed slowly. From the design drawing to the design principle, various drawings and parameters were presented in front of Carl without reservation.

Although it has long been said that a series of research topics of the cloud Research Institute are all the world's top S-level scientific research projects, Carl still can't believe that he can access such confidential information just after joining.

In particular, for him with a secret mission

"Mr. Carr, you are one of the top scientists in the United States. At present, the contribution of the science and technology tree is among the best in the world. After evaluation, Captain ghost's cloud research has a certain chance to give you olive branches. Therefore, for the sake of national interests, we hope you can bring back some key information for us at that time..."

A month ago, the words of the intelligence agency personnel were still in his ears. He looked at the information in front of him and fell into a deep tangle.

Since Lawrence, an expert in high energy physics, was absorbed by the cloud Research Institute, everyone knows that the mysterious cloud Research Institute is not completely closed, and they also need to absorb fresh blood.

This event caused a sensation in the scientific community all over the world. Everyone wanted to enter this dream science paradise.

The ultra-high unlimited monthly salary of "10000" may be ignored by top scientists who regard money as dirt, but the real temptation for them is the top scientific research projects and the legendary "internal employee welfare"!

To this end, the world survey organization also took Lawrence as the research object, collected the data of scientists all over the world, and published a ranking list of "cloud reserve", listing all the top scientists that may be recruited.

And Carl, ranked 17th on the list.

Fame not only brought him the attention of the outside world, but also brought him unexpected trouble

Obviously, the information in his hands can definitely reach the "key information". Even if he can only remember 1% of the content, his country can make a huge theoretical breakthrough in a short time.

But I... can I really do that?

Looking at Pluto's sad appearance, Carl's heart suddenly pulled up.

In 1961, the former Soviet Union detonated the "czar" on the Arctic Xindi Island, with an equivalent of 50 million tons, which triggered a regional ecological disaster, almost causing a major disaster, affecting many European countries, and the experiment almost ended out of control.

If a 10 billion ton bomb is really made... Even if it is not as powerful as the meteorite that destroyed the dinosaurs, is it enough to destroy mankind?

"Hades type I, with cheap raw materials, 10kg energy crystal and a precision trigger, that is, the manufacturing accuracy is high, the cost is low and the power is strong. What do you think of this thing?"

Mr. Yu asked casually while checking the experimental data.

Carl: "

Low cost, powerful?

As a top scientist, Carl clearly realized that the higher the level of scientific development, the higher the requirements for human organizational structure and moral standards!

Without absolute control over force and a stable and unified internal environment, the emergence of every super weapon is likely to mean the beginning of human self destruction

A human world that cannot control scientific research results is likely to turn science and technology that could have benefited one party into a "Pandora's box" that will bring all mankind to hell.

So, can you really trust to hand over this kind of thing?
