Chapter 940: To Deal with High Technology, Sometimes a Big Hammer Can Also Work - in Theory, This Is the Case

(

The nether energy well that has been completely out of control is supplying excess energy to all the crystallized pipes in the wreckage. The energy discharge channel of the deep submersible ship itself is completely unable to satisfy the problem of channeling so much excess energy, even though there is a large amount of grazing energy outside. The device is working intensively, but the fragile structure of the wreckage determines that there is an upper limit to the power of the energy skimmer that can be used in this situation. No matter how accurate Tavel's judgment is or how knowledgeable he is, in such a complex and sudden environment , they had to give up a lot of things in order to preserve the wreckage database as much as possible, such as all the experimental cabins that were abandoned before. But even if she did this, she only bought us two hours, and the situation in the core area of ​​the wreckage did not improve at all.

After entering from the maintenance channel and advancing in a straight line for more than ten minutes, we arrived at the transfer area connecting the maintenance channel and the ship's internal corridor. This is a very broad alloy hall, more than a hundred meters high, with an average width of several hundred meters. It is enough for a small spacecraft to pass through here. There are three passages in the transfer area. One is the direction we came from, one extends deep into the spacecraft and is a formal corridor directly to the database cabin. The other one is dimly lit, twisted and eerie, with only a dense atmosphere. Smoke and fire spewed out from the depths of the passage, which connected to the energy plug in the inner ring that had been completely sealed. That was the culprit of the emergency, the last failed energy plug in the entire wreckage. If It wasn't that it suddenly got stuck, nor would the deep-submersible ship's psionic well management program judge that it was necessary to replenish the experimental cabin with energy.

But now that energy plug has been completely blocked by the raging psionic storm. Not to mention the rescue team, even if Pandora or Visca comes over, I am afraid they will not dare to approach that environment casually: What is the concept of a rampaging psionic well? The smallest model of that thing is equivalent to the output of more than a dozen nether energy reactors added together. In order to be able to advance in the abyss, this scientific research ship is equipped with an extremely efficient nether energy well in its experimental cabin. To be fair, in In this case, the environment near it is definitely not much more optimistic than being fired upon by a fleet.

But I and Sandora may be the only two people who can get close to the energy plug now: I am almost immune to simple energy attacks, and Sandora has a good human shield.

"How many people are still staying in this ring?" Sandora noticed that I was studying the road map to the energy plug, and she had already guessed what the people around me wanted to do. She didn't make any more suggestions, she just said the staff at the "Safety Station" asked.

"The inner ring has fourteen key nodes, and each node has one or two such workstations. There are twenty-two stations in total, and a total of one hundred and thirty-six researchers are holding their positions."

"Okay, hold on a little longer, let's go and remove the energy plug!" I finally determined the route to the energy plug and said loudly in an unquestionable tone.

"This is very dangerous!" The scientist was shocked. "The energy bolt is the focus of the rampant psionic energy. This is too risky!"

"At least it's much safer than letting you do it - Shandora and I can get close to the energy plug safely. Can your safe platform last longer than the emperor-level apostle?"

"Chief Tavel has informed us of His Majesty's plan. If we dismantle the energy bolt midway, I'm afraid there won't be enough time. Now that we are here to suppress it, Your Majesty can go to the core with peace of mind. As for the unexpected situation, we have already taken it into account. If the security station collapses prematurely, we will immediately upload our souls and death will be commonplace for us."

I was speechless: "Working with that madman Tavel all day long, you are used to being bombarded by her, right...Okay, okay, don't say more, the plan has changed. I know the rules of the empire are in the field of scientific research, The emperor must listen to the advice of scientists, but now that the research project here has ended, Shandora and I are directing the battle, you should prepare to withdraw - Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask, will removing the energy plug help?"

The second half of what I said was to Sandora. Although I was quite confident in what I said before, I suddenly discovered that I didn't even know what the energy plug was for.

"You are really..." Sandora rolled her eyes at me calmly, "The energy bolt is used to restrict and distribute the energy in the large-scale nether energy network, but now that energy bolt has become a source of bugs. It is precisely because of its existence that Nether Energy Well mistakenly believes that there is a large leakage in the energy network, and continuously outputs energy to the outside. If the energy plug can be removed, an 'energy network is offline' message will be sent to Nether Energy Well's system. signal, there is no doubt that the latter will be shut down."

"Then the wreckage has been saved?" I was overjoyed. If the nether energy well calmed down, would this section of the deep submersible ship not need to be blown up?

"Unfortunately, there is already too much excess energy in the energy network of this half of the deep submersible. Shutting down the nether energy well can only stop the pressure increase in the core area, giving these workstations a chance to evacuate, but the energy that has accumulated in the network cannot be released. out, and after the energy plug falls off, the inner ring energy and the outer ring energy will be divided, the outer energy skimmer will be further compressed, and the wreckage will be even more hopeless - of course we had no intention of saving it in the first place, so we don't Consider it a loss.

"Okay, let's go to the energy bolt." I made a decision immediately. I thought Sandora might give me a little reminder about the priorities of things and the decisiveness of killing that a superior should have, but I didn't expect that she would not hesitate. He nodded, took my hand and rushed towards the dark and twisted third passage on the other side.

The environment on the road leading to the energy plug was even worse than the maintenance channel just now. There were small explosions and energy sparks everywhere. The thick smoke obscured the sight of the naked eye. I had to use my mental power to sense the environment in front of me. The surroundings were full of energy. Under the interference of psionic energy, this is not an easy job. I feel like there is a mosaic in front of me - this code is thick enough.

This passage - in fact, it can no longer be said to be a passage. It can only point people in the direction leading to the last energy bolt. The severe distortion of the passage itself and the large amount of twisted metal blocking the route along the way interfered with Sandora and I's progress. , we could hardly find a place that we could normally pass through. Sandora had to change her form and use the giant claws of the abyss to open up the road. The metal obstacles and falling alloy guards along the way were chopped up by her like paper shells. Tear them into pieces like vegetables. Except for the demolition team, I have never seen such high work efficiency.

"You seem to support my unreasonable plan?"

I held up the shield to block the psionic lightning that was comparable to guns and guns along the way for Sandora, and asked loudly amidst the continuous explosions.

"Are you saying that you suddenly changed your route and personally removed the energy bolt? Or are you personally assisting those low-level technicians?" Sandora didn't look back and waved a gray-white shock wave, smashing a section of the collapsing metal support beam ahead into pieces. .

"It's both. No matter how you think about it, it seems a bit petty, right?"

"Yes, as a leader, if you change the plan like this, it will reduce the success rate of the entire operation and consume a lot of energy. But as Arjun, you will definitely make this decision. You are used to doing everything by yourself—— I'm used to your habits. In addition, Tavel's previous plan was correct, but she is not you and me after all. Facing the same scene, her judgment may be limited to her own vision, so this time I think... Jun’s plan is still very feasible. With our strength, if we act at full speed, we will have enough time to dismantle the energy bolt and then go to the core area.”

I felt a little relieved after hearing this. In fact, I also know that it is very reckless to change the action plan like this, but how to put it, letting those low-level technicians manually suppress the core pipe network is ultimately treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. I think It's probably enough for me and Sandora to get an energy plug together.

"It should be in front," Sandora suddenly stopped and said loudly, then pulled me off the alloy wall in front, "Don't run so fast."

"Mom, the code is too thick." I rubbed my forehead with an embarrassed look on my face. There was thick smoke all around. I used my mental power to explore the path and was interfered by the energy environment. I don't have more than 100 kinds of radars like Sandora's. The vision is beyond the standard, and I bumped into the wall without paying attention.

If I had known earlier, I would have rushed in void form. Although it looks a bit ugly, at least I could have just punched a hole through the wall if it blocked my way...

"It seems that the control system of the wreckage closed the gate on its own. Opposite is the place where the energy bolt is placed." Sandora looked at the huge alloy barrier in front of her. It had been twisted and deformed by the nearby energy impact. Opening the device would definitely It has also failed. “It seems that all we can do is dig a hole.”

"Your claws have many functions." I glanced at Sandora's abyss claws and suddenly said something else.

Sandora sharpened her claws on the metal wall next to her: "Arjun, trouble comes from your mouth."

That being said, Sandora now actually has no psychological resistance to her abyssal form, and can even happily joke with me about this topic. This may be because my void form is more annoying than the big claws. It gave her a lot of confidence. Next, the two began to deal with the gate in front of them. Since the charging armor had failed, the originally indestructible alloy gate had now become an ordinary metal. The only thing that was difficult to deal with was that it was originally designed to protect the energy hub, so it was not suitable for You. The energy resistance is extremely high, and the raging nether energy all around did not reduce the physical strength of this door, making it impossible for us to defeat it as devastatingly as before. Sandora began to cut the door with great domineering force, and the whole process was filled with fire. Then she concentrated on maintaining the shield and channeling nearby energy to prevent an explosion. After waiting for a while, Sandora breathed a sigh of relief: "It's done. It's more than two meters thick, and it's mixed with astrology stones. It's really strong. "

A large hole about two meters wide and two meters deep has been opened on the gate. There are no cut metal scraps on the ground: Sandora may have thrown it into her mouth and eaten it.

What a magical mouth! Even the astrology stone can be bitten! If it weren't for the insufficient range, Sandora's most powerful weapon might be her little tiger fangs.

Sandora and I immediately got through the hole and entered the energy hub. The energy plug is placed in a cylindrical closed space with a radius of about twenty or thirty meters. There is no operating platform in the space, which means that under normal circumstances no one will come to this place. There are countless dazzling pipelines at your feet. , like the floor of some kind of lair, with many parallel crystallized pipes arranged on the curved wall next to it, emitting a faint blue light. In front of it, there is a metal structure fixed in mid-air by a large number of mechanical devices. The metal cylinder composed of crystals and crystals has a radius of nearly ten meters and a height of twenty or thirty meters. Looking up, it looks like a strange-looking building, covered with beating blue light windows.

Below the cylinder is a hole with a slightly larger radius. A blue-white halo radiates from the hole. The intricate pipelines on the floor of the room eventually converge on a crystallized ring around the edge of the hole. Obviously, the one that leaves the ground The huge cylinder several meters high and the hole emitting blue light below it together are the so-called energy valve, and the energy bolt is the cylindrical thing.

...This thing is bigger than I thought. A huge cylinder that can solve the housing problem of two hundred people. Are you really just a valve handle?

"It's completely out of control. These crystallization pipes were broken down near the restraint above, and then some were fused together, and the surrounding beta barriers were also broken in many places." Sandora raised her head and looked at the enclosed space. At the top of the energy bolt, I saw where all the crystallized pipes were gathered together. Large swaths of nether energy lightning were cracking in all directions. The "sizzling" sound of the energy lasing echoed everywhere in the space. It was mechanically installed. The energy bolts fixed in mid-air are full of tiny energy discharge "electricity" phenomena. Bright arcs of psionic energy are running quickly along each pipeline. Due to the instability of the energy, they are constantly popping up out of thin air in the surrounding air. There are many small light balls with a crystal texture. When these small light balls float to the huge cylinder, they will trigger a small explosion. Every time, it is frightening: the energy reaction inside is almost equivalent to the main gun of the Galaxy. Bore! Once this thing breaks open, the two of us standing next to it will really die and lose our skin!

"You can only lower this thing safely according to the procedures," Sandora walked forward. "You cannot directly destroy the energy plug. Once its crystal barrier is damaged, it may explode."

Staying in this huge "part" (in fact, including the cylindrical closed space we are in, what we are in is an energy valve, and the energy plug is just the control part of the valve), even if we and I Shandora will also feel great pressure. The energy concentration around her is so astonishing. The energy bolt in front of her is blocking the nether energy that is almost equivalent to a galactic main gun shot. If an ordinary imperial soldier comes here, I am afraid it will be almost impossible. It will be overloaded and self-destruct within seconds, and I rely entirely on my natural ability to survive in this environment unharmed. However, the strong fluctuations of psionic energy around me still bring a lot of psychological pressure to people. No wonder Tavel once thought that the deep submersible ship was completely Hopeless: Apart from the leader-level apostles, who else has the ability to come here for adventure?

Due to energy leakage, piercing alarms sounded in the surrounding space, one after another, which was annoying. Sandora frowned and casually waved a shock wave in a direction directly above, and then the alarm suddenly stopped. Then she came to the cave under the energy bolt, retracted the giant claw of the abyss, and began to violently dismantle the crystallized ring there.

I don't know much about these things. All I can do is to do my best to channel the psionic energy leaked from the energy plug while watching Sandora's movements.

She had already removed a piece of the one-meter-wide crystallized ring, revealing a one-foot-square hole with a complex crystal structure inside. Sandora punched these beautiful and deadly crystals without even looking. It shattered, revealing a metal protrusion below. She fumbled around on the metal protrusion, then found a groove and pulled it out of the ground: it turned out to be a control rod buried in the mechanical structure. . There was originally a blue light floating on the control rod, but as it was pulled out of its original slot, the blue light quickly dimmed. At the same time, a low hum that was unique to the equipment when the power supply was insufficient came from the energy plug.

With a "clang" sound, Shandora threw the disassembled parts on the ground, then dismantled the nearby crystallized cover according to the law, and pulled out the control rods inside one by one. I looked at it for a while and found that it was nothing. It was technically difficult, so he also helped out: "It doesn't look difficult."

"Sometimes, a hammer can work for things that cannot be solved with a microscopic probe." Sandora raised her head and smiled, "The stupid method is the easiest method to master... Okay, the last one, done!"

"Warning: The No. 14 energy bolt restraint is in abnormal condition. The restraint device is about to be released. The energy bolt is expected to drop in one minute."

As Sandora threw the last control rod to the ground, the light of the crystallized ring under our feet immediately dimmed, and then the surrounding area was filled with the low hum of energy release, and the restraining mechanical devices at high altitude began to use the remaining energy. After executing the action of lowering the energy bolt, the huge cylinder finally began to slowly descend amid a burst of vibrations. Sandora and I couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the environment is harsh, at least this thing is relatively obedient when operated manually.

However, before we could fully exhale, we heard a deafening loud noise from above: "Cang Dang!!!"

The energy bolt suddenly stopped during a violent shaking, and the surrounding space was filled with energy lightning for an instant. Sandora's face suddenly changed: "Oops! It's stuck!"

Almost at the moment when the energy lightning around me appeared, I had already taken action. The energy suppression force field was instantly released. All the rampaging psionic energy was roughly restrained in their respective media areas in the blink of an eye, and there was an earth-shattering explosion. I was almost nipped in the bud, but I was still shocked and sweating all over my forehead. I kept my energy suppressed and didn't dare to relax, and asked nervously: "What's going on?"

"The restraint failed. It locked itself." Sandora pointed to a lot of complex mechanical devices in the sky. "So I don't like mechanical restraints! Now we must lower the energy bolt quickly and let it go." Fall into this hole or there will be a big explosion.”

"Cut off those robotic arms?"

"Those things are made of high-purity astrology and high-crystalline alloy. I can be sure that my claws will never be able to break those things: its design indicator is that even if it is directly hit by the battleship's main gun, it will not cause the energy bolt to deflect. It’s outside the tolerance range, and the energy resistance of this thing reaches 99%. It’s very difficult to cut off this kind of thing in a short time.”

"You can't use energy to attack, and you can't just introduce void energy into this environment. Then you have to...find a coolie!" I felt blessed in my heart at this moment, and immediately connected to my soul, "Lin, come here, while you work hard, arrive!"
